ISAAC M. SINGER, OF NEW' YORK, N. Y.
CARRIAGE.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 25,920, dated October 25, 18.59;
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ISAAC M. SINGER, of the city, county, and State ofv New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Family and other Carriages; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in whiczh- Figure l, is a side elevation of the carriage; Fig. 2, a longitudinal vertical section; Figs. 3 and 4:, cross vertical sections taken at the line A, a, of Fig. 2, and looking in opposite directions, and Fig. 5, another cross vertical section taken at the line B, o, of Fig. 2.
The same letters indicate like parts in all the gures.
The object of my invention is the production of a carriage, mainly intended for family use, which shall have, within a smaller compass than by any other known plan and within the main body a larger number of seats so arranged that the persons sitting on them can conveniently converse, and to obtain this result in such a manner as to admit of placing the center of gravity of the whole structure sufficiently low for confvenience and safety in traveling on common roads, and to admit of symmetry in the general structure, while at the same time inside seats for children and servants and suitable receptacles for all the necessary conveniences of travel are provided, as also an increased number of outside seats.
In the accompanying drawings (a) represents the main body of the carriage with a side door (o) on each side. Back of the doors there is a transverse range of seats (c) for three persons with permanent backs (d, d), for the two side seats and a hinged back (e) for the middle seat, which said back (c) can be let down onto the middle seat to form a step and passage way to get to two elevated seats (f, f) behind the backs (d, d) of the seats (c, c). These elevated seats are arranged longitudinally and placed so high that the persons sitting on them face to face will have their feet on the level or nearly so with the seats (c, c) while the persons sitting on the seats (c, c) will be effectually protected from the feet of those sitting on the elevated seats by the hinged back (e) when thrown up, as this back is only let down in the position represented by dotted lines to give access to and egress from the elevated seats The backs (d, d) should be made so high'that their upper edges will form arm supports to the elevated seats.
Forward of the side doors there are two seats (g, g) on the same level with the back seats (c, c) and with an open space (h) between them so that two persons may sit face to face if desired to avoid riding backward; and this space between the two seats also forms a passage way to two longitudinal elevated seats (i, z') in front similar to the two back ones before described, and in like manner separated from the low seats (g, g) by partitions (j, which form backs to the low seats, if persons choose to ride backward, and their upper edges forming arm supports to the elevated seats. rIhe space between these two partitions is provided with a hinged frame (Z) which closes up this space when thrown up to protect the persons on the lowei` seats from the feet of the persons on the elevated seats, and which when let down in the position represented by dotted lines forms a step leading to the elevated seats and which in case of necessity may be used as a seat.
The elevated seats at the back admit of giving to the bottom of the carriage a graceful curve upward as at (a), while the elevated seats in front admit of forming a boot (o) below them with a door (p) at each side in the form of a panel for the introduction of luggage. This brings the weight below the plane of the axles, and aids to concentrate the weight on the front axle, which is very desirable.
At the back of the main body and attached thereto is a depressed coupeJ body (g) which communicates with the inside of the main body by a doorway (r) in the middle of the back and forming a continuation of the passage way between the two elevated back seats, this passage way being above the rear axle (s) while both the main body and the coup eXtend down below the said aXle, the rear elevated seats admitting of so elevating the bottom of the body to make room for the rear aXle and its connections above the main line of the bottom of the main body and of the coupJ behind.
The coup is provided with a middle door (t) in the back, and with seats (u, a) on each side, the space under one of the said seats being suitably arranged as a water closet, and the other as a receptacle for baggage &c. From the coup openings are made as at (c) and (w) throughtheback of the main body to the spaces under the two back elevated seats, one for storing bag-i gage, and the other for an extension of-one of the side seats of the coupeJ to form a childs bed, or if desired both may be arranged for beds, or both for the receptionl of baggage, &c.
The depression ofthebottom ofthercoup fbelow 'the rear axle brings the top thereof so 'far below lthe top ofthe main 'body that it will answer the purpose of a foot Aboard for a range of seats #(w) on top andat lthe Vback edge ofthe main body. In additionl lto these seats another range -of seats may be arranged on top of the coup and suitably Ielevated .as represented. A. frame work 1(2) which .may 'be .put on yand takeni oft at pleasure by dowel pins is arranged oni ltop offtheimain body rand at the `front'edge vthereof to form a 'range of elevated seatsl lwith a foot board.
The frontvof thefcarriage is sustainedon` the vfront axle (a) lbythe projecting frame? work in the manner represented or .ini
Vany other suitable manner, which lwill admit i ofthe turning of the front axle forward off:
the =main body. This frame work is .to be; Eprovided in vany suitable manner .with va tion Vof the main body and seats therein Ii am'enabled Ato obtain .by a very `slight in-r crease of size ample room lfor nine, and ifi' necessary ten persons, all so situated Athat they can'converse freely-and none'ofwhomf if limited to nine, will lbe requiredto ride; backward; while in the coup at the lback and in communication therewith there will 'be ample room -for children and servantsk and all the conveniences for travel. vAndy when used for traveling in addition to .the
above conveniences ample provision is made "for baggage, and seats for several persons outside.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent isl. The arrangement, in the main body of thecarriage, of the low seats in combination with the elevated seats arranged in manner substantially as above described and for the purposes set forth.
2. I 4also claim in combination with the ,back depressed and elevated seats as ldescribed the arrangement ofthe hinged parti- :tion for answer the threefold purpose of a step .toget to the elevated back seats, as a back to the :middle depressed seat and to separate the -feet of the .persons sitting on the elevated seats from the persons sitting on the depressed seats.
3. rI also Vclaim 1n combination with the front elevated seats, as described, the arrangement of the vhinged step leading to theelevated seats, together withfits dirt flap,
and of a seat in case of necessity.
4. I Aalso claim the arrangement of the boot for baggage, in the space between .the
5. I also claim in combination with the t main Abody of the carriage the placing of the-coup attherear thereof, andvcommunicat-ing therewith by a door-way'through the back, as described.
6. `I lalso claim depressing the coup at the back of the main body that-.the bottom of both may extend below and leave the re- Iquired open space for the rear axle and its lconnections, and `that thetop of the coup .may forma foot board to theseats at .the back edge ofthe top of the main body, as
described.
v7. .I also claim :in combination with the coup the open spaces under the back ele- `vated seats ofthe main body opening into .thecoup as described and forrthe purposes set forth. Y
. I. M.'SINGER. Witnesses:
