BED-BOTTOM.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 224,846, dated February 24, 1880.
Application filed September 16, 1879.
ment is fully set forth in the following specification and accom panin g drawings, in which- Figurel is an isometric view. Fig. '2 is a Fig. 3 is a top view;
support.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved bed-bottom, whereby the flexibility of the same can be easily regulated, and also bed provided with my slats, the whole being simple in construction and durable in operatiou, as will hereinafter be more fully set fOltll.
In the accompanying drawings, A A represent slats, which are placedcrosswise as supports, one at the head and the other at the foot of the bedstead.
Upon these cross-slats I place a number of boxings or housings,B, at intervals, which serve as spaces between the slats. Rollers O are placed lengthwise on these slats, extending under the housing B,
and made in separate parts, so that when the difl'erent slats are placed on the rollers they will operate independently of each other. The rollers are made smaller in diameter 1 than the hollowed portion of the housing B,
the object being to allow room for a free and easy movement of the slat longitudinally.
By this construction the movements of the slats are, first, independent of each other,
by pressure on thesprings.
In Fig.1 only a portion of the end crossslats or supports is shown, sufficient to illustrate-the bearing portion fora wide and a narrow slat, the object being to show that this construction will admit of any width slat.
The slats, as shownin Figs. 1 and 3, are
1 and, second, do not creak or produce any noise slitted toform three or more parts, leaving a short portion of each end intact. The alternate strips thus formed are bridged by means of a block, E,as shown in Fig. 1, or by means of twoblocks, F, Fig. 2, placed near each end.
An elastic bed can thus be made by moving In use this block can be set up edgewise, as
represented in the drawings, or placed on the side. In the former case one slat will be placed in the gain 01 above, and the other slats below on the rounded portions 0 c. When laid flatwise the under slat is placed in the gain f,
and the two upper slats on the rounded portions 1) b. y
I am aware that a bed-bottom having elastic bars with blocks is not new, and I hereby disclaim such as my invention; but I do not know of a block constructed in the manner here shown; neither am I aware that a bedslat has ever been constructed of wood in one piece, as herein described, nor of the method of suspending the slats as shown. Therefore,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is r 1. The Wedge-shaped block E, having aflat face, a, rounded parts I) c, and provided with gains (1 e, the latter of which has a rounded face, substantially asand for the purpose specified.
2. Asupport for bed-slats placed crosswise in a bedstead, and provided wit'ha series of boXings or housings, B, having within said housings the ends of a set of independent rollers, upon which the ends of the bed slats rest between the housings, substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
3. The combination of aslitted and bridged bed-slat, D, with support A, having housing B and rollers O, substantially as herein described and set forth. I
LOOMIS E. RANSOM.
