VINCENT P. TBAVERS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN HAMMOQK-SUPPORTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 221,984, dated November 25, 1879; application filed September 22, 1879.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VINCENT P. TRAVERS, of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Hammock-Support, of which the following is a specification. A V
Figure l is a perspective view of my improved hamluock-support. Fig. 2 is a detail sectional view, on an enlarged scale, of the connecting swivel-screw which joins the braces to the chairs.
This invention hasfor its object to permit the suspension of a hammock from the backs of ordinary chairs, so that a hammock or a hammock-bed may be readily put up in a room, on a veranda, or even on a lawn, without the use of permanent fastenings, and so also that it may be readily moved about from sunny into shady places, or wherever desired.
The invention consists in connecting and combining two chairs with a set of appropriate braces, so that said chairs cannot slide farther apart than desired, and in providing the backs of such chairs with pins or other means for attaching the fabric of the hammock.
In the accompanying drawings, the letters A B represent two suitable chairs or benches. G O are two braces, which are used to connect said chairs. These braces are preferably made of wood or other rigid substance. The ends of these braces are, by preference, provided with swivel-screws a a, by means of which they can be secured to the sides of the chair-legs or chairseats or lower parts of the chair-backs;
but instead of such screws suitable hooks or pins permanently secured to the chairs or to the ends of the braces may be used.
The chair-backs are provided with projecting pins 1) b, for facilitating the attachment thereto of the hammock D in manner shown; but it is quite evident that other means for connecting the said hammock to the chairs may be employed with like efi'ect-as, for example, hooks attached to the ends of the hammock, adapted to engage over the chair-backs or parts thereof, or cords for tying the hammock thereto.
The chairs, being, united by the braces G O, constitute a proper hammock-support, which can be readily put up wherever desired and moved about at pleasure.
