SPECIFICATON forming part of Letters Patent No. 269,881, dated January 2, ISES.
Application filed June 5, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that l, HUDSON H. REED, a citizen of' the United States, residing at New York city, in the county and State of New York, have made an invention of a new and useful Folding Hammock-Carriage, of' which the following is a specitlcation.
My invention relates to a new and useful folding carriage, the body of which is constructed of a netting or webbing arranged in the form ot' a hammock and suspended by loops supported at the sides by lines connected' to the cross-bars ot a folding frame and at the ends by loops carried by the cross-bars of the folding framing. lIlle folding framing is of peculiar construction, so arranged that not only the side frames and wheels and axles ab solutely overlap each other, but also the whole ot' the wheels, the center of the axle of each and every wheel being brought into the same horizontal line.
In carrying out my invention, I arrange a pair ot' parallel bars or rods,- by preference formed of wood and connected together at their lower ends by a crossbar, which also forms the axle for one or apairot' wheels. Toward their upper ends these parallel bars are again connected by means of a cross-bar, which also serves as a means ot' suspension for one end of the hammock, and also -for the support ofthe upper ends of the side hammocklines, as hereinafter more fully explained. The,
upper ends ot` the parallel bars are curved or otherwise formed so as to serve as handles for the purpose of propelling the device. The lower end of the hammock and the lower ends ot the side hammock-lines are supported by a cross-bar, by preference formed of metal of a This metallic cross-bar at each end is turned slightly backward, then carried downward, so as to form a second pair ot' parallel bars, which are pivoted slightly above their center to the main parallel bars. At their lower ends they are formed with short axles extending outward, and each adapted for the reception of one ot' a pair of wheels. A double bent cross-bar is applied to give rigidity to these metallic parallel bars. The hammock which forms the bottom of the carriage is formed of network ot' any suitable material'-ticking, duck, or other fabric or material. A frame is pivoted to the main parallel bars, by means of which a hood or canopy may be supported over or partially over the hammock.
The peculiar construction ot' the parts, as hereinafter more fully explained, not only enables the hammock, when the parts are distended, to form a perfect perambulator or bed, but when contracted the side bars will absolutely overlap one another, and the wheels will be brought into position so that the center' .of their axles will be all in one and the same line, thereby effecting a great savingof space. 'lhe accompanying drawings form part of thisgspeeitication, and illustrate what I consider the best means of carrying out iny invention. y
Figure l is a side view, and Fig. 2 a front view, showing' the parts in their working positions. Fig. 3 is a front view with the parts in the position they will assume when the device is folded up. Fig. 4 is a side view ot' the same.
In each ofthe views similar letters of refer ence indicate like parts wherever they occur. A A-represent'a pair ot' main parallel bars or rods, by preference formed of wood, and connected together at theirlower ends by means of a cross-bar, B, which also forms the axle for the wheels C C. p
A is a cross-bar connecting the upper ends of the main parallel bars A. This cross-bar A also serves to support the upper end, D', of the hammock D, to which the hammock Dis connected by loops d. or other suitable means, and also to support the side hammock-lines, D2, which by means ofloops d', or other equivalen t means,support the sides ot'the hammock D. D3 are handles formed on the upper ends of the main bars A.
The lower ends ot' the side hammock-lines, D2, aire supported by a cross-bar, E', by preferenee of a curved form, which also by means- ICO at their lower ends are formed with short axles F F, extending outward, and each adapted for the reception of one of a pair of wheels, G G.
A cross-bar, E2, provided on each side with bends c2 e2, serves to give rigidity to the bars E E. The object ot' the bends e2 e2 is to allow ofthe parts coming one behind the other when the device is folded np, as shown by Figs. 3 and 4.
II is a frame pivotcd to the lnain bars A A ath h, and by means of which ahood or canopy (not shown) may be supported over the hainlnovk D.
rlhe hammock D, I have shown in the drawings formed of net-work; but in many cases it may be formed of ticking, duck, or other materials, according to the fancy of the user or man ufactnrer, or the purpose to which the device is to be applied.
The device is intended primarily as a perambulator forinfants or invalids. It however forms an invaluable cot or bedstead, capable of ready transportation from place to place; and it also aiords great facility for storage or packing when folded up, all the parts, with the exception of the cross-bar, (even to the wheels,) folding one within the other.
Havingthus described my invention, I would have it understood that I do not claim broadly a folding childs carriage having parallel side bars mounted on Wheels and connected to gelber so as to support a flexible body; but
What I do claim is l. In a frame for a folding hammock-earriage, the combination, with the bars A A, connected together and provided with wheels C C, as described, ot' the side hars E E, pivoted at o e to the exterior ot' the side bars A A, and provided with short'external axles, F, and external wheels, G Gr, the side bars E E being so arranged that when the frame is folded they shall overlap the side bars A A and bring the axles of the wheels G C and G G into the same horizontal line, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. In a folding hammock-carriage, the combination, with a frame composed of bars A A, connected together and provided with Wheels C C, as described, side bars E E, pivoted at e c to the side bars A A, and provided with short A'external axles, F F, and external wheels, G G,
arranged and adapted to operate as described, and the cross-bars A and e c E of the side lines, D2, loops d', and body D, the whole being arranged and adapted for operation substantially as set forth.
Titness my hand this 1st day of June, A. D. 1882.
