Description

N. WARLIGK. SPRING BED BOTTOM.
Patented Nov. 16, 11858.
UNITED STATES NOAH WARLIOK, OF CHAMBERS COURT HOUSE, ALABAMA.
SPRING BED-BOTTOM.
Specification of Letters Patent No.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, NOAH WARLIOK, of Chambers Court House, in the county of Chambers and State of Alabama, have invented a new and Improved Spring Bed- Bottom; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1, is a longitudinal vertical section of my invention applied to a bedstead the section being taken in the line 00, m, Fig. 2. Fig. 2, is a transverse vertical section of same, taken in the line 3 3 Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the two figures.
This invention consists in having the bedbottom formed of a series of longitudinal wooden strips or slats having their lower ends, or the ends at the foot of the bedstead, permanently attached at equal distances apart to a traverse bar, the slats at about their centers being attached to springs which rest on a transverse bar attached permanently to the bedstead, and the upper ends of the slats attached to a strap which serves as a stay, the whole being arranged as herein after fully shown and described, whereby a very elastic, simple, durable and cheap bedbottom is obtained.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and construct my invention I will proceed to describe it.
A, represents a bedstead which may be constructed in any of the known forms and B, represents a series of wooden slats, one end of which is permanently attached at equal and suitable distances apart to a transverse bar O, the ends of which rest on cleats Z), at the sides of the bedstead and at its toot, see Fig. 1.
Each slat B, at about its center rests or bears on a spring D, and these springs rest or bear on a transverse bar E, the ends of which rest on cleats 0, at the sides of the bedstead and near its head. The springs D, may be constructed of some elastic wood or, metal may be used, or ind1a rubber arranged in any proper way. Wooden strips howeaoes, dated November 16, 1858.
ever would probably answer as good a purpose as any, the lower ends resting on the bar E, as shown clearly in Fig. 1.
The upper ends of the slats B, rest on a strap F, the ends of which are attached to the sides of the bedstead near the head posts G. This strap is sufiiciently loose to allow a requisite degree of play or vibration to the slats B, and at the same time serve as a support to the same when they are depressed to a certaln extent.
The springs D, are so arranged that they will, when no weight is placed on the slats, keep the latter in an inclined position as shown clearly in Fig. 1.
From the above description it will be seen that the upper portions of the slats have a considerable degree of play or elasticity, owing to the degree of inclination given them and the arrangement of the springs D, relatively with the slats. The lower parts of the slats have but little elastic movement, none or but little being required where the lower extremities rest. By this arrangement a very strong bed-bottom is obtained and also a very elastic one, the elasticity be ing at the point or part where it is required, viz., where the body of the occupant of the bed lies.
The device may be well constructed at a very small cost and applied to all the forms or varieties of bedsteads in common use.
I am aware that wooden slats have been used with spiral springs and therefore do not claim broadly and irrespective of arrangement such device; but,
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is,
1. The wooden springs D, attached to the underside of the longitudinal slats B, and resting on the transverse bar E.
2. I also claim the use of metal or india rubber springs resting upon said transverse bar for the purpose specified.
NOAH IVARLIOK.
