Description

T. H. BROWN. Oilshion for Sulkies.
Patented April 30,1878.
INVENTOR WlTNEE BEE UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS H. BROWN, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN CUSHIONS FOR SULKIES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. 202,925, dated April 30, 1878; application filed March 2, 1878.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THoMAs H. BROWN, of Chicago, county of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cushions for Sulkies, of which the following is a specification:
The nature of this invention consists in a sulky-cushion provided with a pocket underneath for holding the additional weight Which a driver is to carry, and in the peculiar form of the exterior rim of the cushion and the roll thereto attached, said rim receiving a support from the railing of the seat.
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents a top or plan view of my improvement in cushions for sulkies. Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof, taken on line m, Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 is an inverted view of Fig. 1.
F represents the material which composes the bottom of the cushion. E, Figs. 2 and 3, is the inclined side of the curved part of the cushion; and D, Figs. 1 and 2, is a roll which extends around the cushion, except at the front; and A is the cushion. The inclined part E is provided with a suitable foundation, such as canvas or straw-board, to give suitable strength and keep the cushion in form, and serve to support (by resting on the railing F) the roll D The cushion A is made of any suitable material, and fitted neatly to the roll D. Sulkies for fast driving are now generally constructed (as to the seats) with simply an iron railing, which is uncomfortable and sometimes injures the driver. By interposing the roll 1) between the iron railing and the driver, these objections are obviated.
In practice these cushions should be made to conform to the horizontal contour of the railing, that the roll may have a uniform support on the said railing. A pocket, made of suitable leather, is sewed fast to the bottom of the cushion, or the lower termination of the inclined side, having an opening for the introduction of the dead-weight which the driver is to carry, and bymeans of straps and buckles this pocket is closed.
In practice, the driver removes the cushion from the sulky and is weighed with it, and the proper amount of dead-weight is inserted in the pocket and the cushion replaced.
I desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination of the pocket B with the cushion A, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination of the roll D, cushion A, and pocket B, as shown.
THOMAS H. BROWN.
