and pushed under the seat.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT MGOABE AND WILLIAM MOOABE, OF MEADVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.
FOOT-RESTFOR RECLlNlNG-CHAIRS.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 225,230, dated March 9, 1880.
Application filed September 30, 1878.
To all whom t't may concern Be it known that we, ROBERT MGOABE and WILLIAM MCGABE, of the city of Meadville, in the county of Crawford an d State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved 'Foot-Rest for Reclining-Chairs for Invalids,
which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings.
The object ofour invention is to provide a chair for invalids; and it consists in the combination, with a chair-body, of a pivoted cleat or way, a slide, and a foot-rest, whereby the foot-rest may he slid under the chair and will automatically tilt, so as toe tfectually hide it from view, and the chair present the appearance of a common easy-chair.
Figure 1 represents a side view of our chair with the foot-rest extended. Fig. 2 represents a sectional side view, showing thefoot-rest extended in another position. Fig. 3 represents our chair with the foot-rest retired or folded Fig. 4 represents a sectional view of the same with the footrest retired or folded.
A, Fig. 1, represents the frame of the stool or seat of the chair. To this are attached the back 13, arm 0, and support I. These are attached to the frame of the seat and to each other by screws L K P I, in such a manner that the backB can be adjusted as desired.
The back B is kept in the desired position by the ratchet D, attached to the back by a joint or hinge, E. N is a hook that supports the ratchet and keeps it in its place. 0 is a dog or pawl by which the ratchet is fixed, and thereby the back may be adjusted to the desired position. This pawl O is operated by a trip, M. This trip is a strip of wood or metal hung on pins at the ends and between the sides of the chair-seat. One of the pins passes through the side of the chair-seat, and on the outer end has a knob, M, by which the person seated in the chair can turn the trip M. The trip M operates the pawl, thereby releasing the ratchet D,.and by it the ratchet can be adjusted at any desired position. Any other suitable adjustable back might be used.
The foot-board F is hung on the arms Gr, whereby it can be placed either in the position shown in Fig. l or that shown in Fig. 2, the stop T holding it in the position of Fig. 1.
H is a slide, of wood or metal, to which G is attached. This slide supports the footboard and slides back on a cleat or way R. (See Fig. 2.) This way is attached to the inside of the frame of the seat by a pin or screw, and when the foot-rest is folded and retired, as shown in Fig. 4, permits the back part of the rest to drop down, and the front part of the rest is concealed by the cross-piece of the frame 4.
V U are two stops that hold the foot-board in the proper position when it is retired. The pin S in the way is in front of the center of the seat. This causes the frame of the rest to drop down by its weightin the position shown at Fig. 4.
X represents a cross piece or tie that attaches the slide H to its companion on the other side of the chair-seat, and its weight, when the foot-rest is retired, causes that end to drop down, and thereby keeps the rest in the position shown in drawings.
1 2 3 4 are cross-ties that join the sides of the chair seat and back together.
What we claim as our invention is lows, to wit:
The combination, substantially as herein described, of the chair-body, the pivoted cleat or way R, the slide H, and the foot-rest, Whereby the foot-rest may he slid under the chair and will automatically tilt, so as to effectually hide it from view, as set forth.
ROBERT MCOABE. WILLIAM MOOABE.
