8 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in bed springs and the primary object of the present invention is to provide an attachment for the side sections of a bed spring that will adjustably and removably support the side rails of such bed springs on the side frame member of a bed.
Another important object of the present invention is to provide a bed spring support which is quickly and readily applied to the side sections of a bed spring during the manufacture thereof or which may be conveniently applied to the sidesections of a bed spring after the same have been produced, and which embodies in its construction novel and improved adjusting and hanger that is extremely small and compact in 3 structure and which will occupy very little space when in operation for supporting the side rails of a bed spring.
A still further aim of the present invention is to provide a bed spring support that is simple and practical inconstruction, strong and reliable in use, neat and attractive in appearance, relatively inexpensive to manufacture, and otherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the same is intended.
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary perspective view showing one form of the improved support in application with sectional fragments of the bedspring side-rail and the angle bar or side rail of the bedstead;
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on the plane of section line 2--2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary perspective view showing a further form of the improved support applied to sectional fragments of the bedspring side-rail and the angle-bar or side rail of the bedstead;
Figure 4 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on the plane of section line 4-4 of Figure 3;
Figure 5 is a fragmentary perspective view showing a still further form of the present support applied to the bed-spring side-rail and the ang e-bar 0 t e e e Figure 6 is a vertical sectional view of the present support taken substantially on the plane of section line 6-6 of Figure 5; and
Figure 7 is a perspective view of the hanger element used in conjunction with the present invention.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, wherein for the purpose of illustration, there is disclosed a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the numeral I0 represents generally, the hanger element which is employed in all embodiments of the present bed support. This hanger element or bracket II) includes a pair of substantially U-shaped members which are designated by the numerals I2 and I l.
The leg portions I6 of the member I2 are of a length less than the length of the leg portions iii of the member I4 for a purpose which will later be more fully apparent.
Rigidly attached to or forming an integral part of the members I2 and I4 is a pair of inclined support elements or bars that extend between the extremities of the leg portions I2 and I4. These bars 20 retain the members I2 and I l spaced parallel to each other.
In practical use of the present invention as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, an anchor plate 22 makes rigid contact with the supporting strip 24 mounted on the inner face of a bed side section 26. The members l2 and I4 embrace the anchor plate 22 and the legs I6 and I8 and bars 2% depend from the anchor plate to receive the side-rail or angle-bar 28 of a bed-spring. It is noted, that one leg of the angle-bar 28 bears against the lower face of the anchor plate 22 and the remaining leg of the angle-bar 28 bears against the leg portions I8 of the member I4.
A spacer or bearing block 30 is positioned upon the upper face of the anchor plate 22 and the web portions of the members I2 and I4 bear upon this block 30.
The block 30 is provided with a plurality of internally threaded openings 32 that receivably engage set-screws 34 having wing-type heads 36 which are adjusted to fix the block and hanger It relative to the anchor plate 22.
Reference is now directed to Figures 3 and 4, wherein there is disclosed a further method for securing the hanger I0 relative to the anchor strip 22. In this embodiment, the block 30 is not employed and the web portions of the members I2 and I4 are formed with internally threaded apertures or openings 38 that receivably engage set-screws 40 having wing-type heads 42. These set-screws 40 are adjusted to bear against the anchor plate 22 thus preventin movement of the hanger 10 relative to the said anchor plate.
Reference is now directed to Figures 5 and 6, wherein there is disclosed a still further method for securing the hangers E9 to the anchor late 22. In this embodiment, a pair of complementary wedge- strips 44 and 46 are driven between the anchor plate 22 and the web portions of the members l2 and M.
With this latest construction, the hanger will be applied to the anchor plate 22 without the necessity of having to employ set-screws.
Obviously, in all embodiments of the present invention, a suitable number of anchor plates 22 and hangers l are employed for properly balancing and supporting the bed-spring.
In view of the foregoing description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings it is believed that a clear understanding of the device will be quite apparent to those skilled in this art. A more detailed description is accordingly deemed unnecessary.
It is to be understood, however, that even though there is herein shown and described a preferred embodiment of the invention the same is susceptible to certain changes fully comprehended by the spirit of the invention as herein described and the scope of the appended claims.
