FOLDING BRACKET FOR CARRIAGE-Toes.-
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 253,364, dated February '7, 1882. Application filed September 8, [881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be-it known that I, (JARL M. FQGELQUIST, of the city of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Folding Brackets for Carriage-Tops, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates especially to carriages forinfants, its object being to providea simple and conveniently-adjustable brace, by which the carriage-top supported by saidbrace may be not only felled down behind the body of the carriage, as heretofore, when shade is not needed, and swung upward in a horizontal position above the carriage when required for use, but by which, also, the said carriage-top may readily be adjusted and held at any suitable elevation in any horizontal or inclined po sition in order to protect the occupant of the carriage from the suns rays under any angle of declination.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a side view of my improved brace extended in position to support a carriage-top horizontal at its highest elevation. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, partly folded and in position to support the carriage-top at a less elevation, either horizontal or inclined. Fig.
3 is a perspective outline of a part of an ordinary baby-carriage as heretofore constructed, showing the top in the two positions of raised and lowered.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts.
The brace is made preferablyof malleable cast-iron; and it consists offour main partsnamely, two bracket-plates, A B, adapted to be secured respectively to the sides of the body and top of the carriage, and two bracearms, 0 D,pivoted together at c, at about the middle of the brace, the lower end of the arm 0 beingpivoted at a to the lower bracket-plate, A, and the upper end of the arm D being pivoted at b to the upper bracket-plate, B, as shown in the drawings. That portion of the bracket-plates A and B and of one of the arms 0 or D to which are fastened the respective pivots a b c is made circular in shape around .the respective pivot as the center, and is pro vided concentrically with a circular row of grooves, sockets, or notches, a b c. Aspring, E, riveted with its upper end to the arm 0,
the whole construction and operation.
'line or 00.)
has on its lower end a catch, pin, or other pro jection, e, which engages with the depressions a, being forced and held into the said depressions by the elasticity of the said spring. To the arm D are riveted two similar springs, F and G, (preferably made in one piece, as shown in the drawings,) having similar end projection's,f and g, engaging with the depressions c and b, respectively.
Instead of the depressions a c b, projections may be used, and the springs E F G may have corresponding depressions instead of the-projections efg. The springs are strong enough to retain the catches in the notches, and thus keep the carriage-top in its adjusted position under ordinary circumstances.
To change the position of the carriage-top it is only necessary to turn the plate B or the arms 0 D on their respective pivots with application of sufficient power to spring the catches out of their respective notches until they engage with some other notches in the,
series corresponding, to the desired elevation and inclination of the carriage-top.
A glance at the drawings will make plain Fig. 2 shows the brace about half folded, the folding shortening the distance between the lower and the upper pivots, a and b, and consequently lowering the carriage-top, (indicated.by the The carriage-top may be inclined backward or forward at any desired anglefor instance, as indicated by the dotted lines 00 w, by simply turning the bracket-plate B a little on its pivot, as indicated by the dotted position corresponding to that of the dotted line w w in Fig. 2. One of the arms G D is preferably bent at that end with which it is pivoted to the other arm, as shown, in order to locate the pivot 0 so far outside the edge of the main portion of the thus bent arm that when the brace is folded the adjacent edges of the two arms will join snugly in continuous contact. I
In infants carriages as generally made (see Fig. 3) the top H is connected to the body I by a rigid brace, h, having but one joint, i, which allows of turning it only from the vertical position shown in full lines to that shown in dotted lines.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. An adjustablebraceforinfants carriages, consisting of the body-bracket A, the arms C and D, and the top bracket, B, pivoted together successively and held in position by spring-catches, substantially as specified.
2. A carriage-brace consisting of the bracket-plates A B and arms G D, pivoted together at a c 11, substantially as shown and described, the said bracket-plates and one of the said arms being provided with a series of notches or catches, a 0 b, partly surrounding the said pivots a c b, respectively, and the said arms 0 D, having springs E F G, provided with catches i 5 or notches e f g to interlock with the respective notches or catches a c b, for the purpose set forth.
