3 Claims.
This invention relates to the art of upholstering, and more particularly to the fastening of upholstery webbing on the bottom of chairs, divans, sofas and similar articles of furniture.
The webbing referred to is that used to support the springs and stuflings of cushion chairs. In the past it has been customary to tack the Webbing to the under framework of the chair by means of a plurality of carpet or upholstery tacks. The webbing used is of coarse weave and with constant use has a tendency to pull away from the tacks, to rip, and to tear. This would be especially true when the webbing became old, dry and slightly rotten. When the webbing becomes old or pulls away, it is necessary to replace it, and the tacks which have been driven into the framework of the chair must be removed and new tacks used. This results in a great number of holes in the framework of the chair, and after the webbing has been replaced once or twice the framework is in such condition that it will not hold tacks. I
An object of this invention is to provide a means for fastening the webbing which will be more secure and which will do away with the difiiculties mentioned above.
A further object is to provide a fastening means which will exert an equal tension throughout the width of the webbing and thus prevent its pulling away at any one point.
Another object is to provide a fastening means which may be removed when the webbing is old and replaced without mutilating the framework of the chair.
With these and other objects in view, which will be more apparent as the description proceeds, reference is had to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 shows a plan view of a section of the chair framework showing the webbing completely fastened on the left side and partially fastened on the right side;
Fig. 2 is a cross line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view taken on the line 33 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a view of the same nature showing a further step in the operation;
Figs. 5 and 6 are views of the top and bottom fastening plates, respectively.
' Referring more particularly to the drawing,
sectional view taken on the Fig. 1 shows the ordinary framework of a chair III to which webbing II is ordinarily fastened by 5 tacks.
In my improved device I provide a bot- Metuchen, N. J.

In operation, one

webbing is then stretched across the framework and a nail or tack I1 is driven through the hole I3 in the lower plate I0.

through the slots I6,
and into the framework I0,
thus forcing the plate I9 downwardly against the top fold of the webbing an the webbing under wooden frame I0.
It will be seen that a firm d the plate I2 and the plate I2 against the strong fastening is thus provided which may be removed to replace the webbing by taking out the screws 24 and 25, removing the plate I9, removing the nail 23, and loosening one end viously, due to the fold 2 of the plate I2. Ob- 6, the tension on the webbing is supported throughout its width and the strain is not exerted at any single point. Moreover, the webbing is not weakened by the insertion of a number of tack holes, nor is the framework mutilated by number of nails.
While I have shown slots, these may in the insertion of a great the slots I6 as elongated fact be merely holes sulficiently large enough to receive the screws 24 and 25, or the slot I6 ma which event the hole Obvious other modifi device without I claim:
