Patented May 1, 1883 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE W. LINDSEY AND HARRY W. RALEIGH, OF BALTIMORE, MARY- LAND, ASSIGNORS OF ONE-THIRD TO ARTHUR J. PRITCHARD, F SAME.
PLACE.
F l RE-ESCAPE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 276,610, dated May 1, 1883.
Application filed January 24, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that we, GEORGE W. LINDSEY and HARRY W. RALEIGH, citizens oftlie United States, residing at Baltimore, Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fire-Escapes, of which the followingis a specification, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, forming part hereof, in whichto Figure l is a view of the front of a house with our invention applied at the windows thereof. Fig. 2 is a view in side elevation of our device detached. Fig. 3 is a view of the attaching iron embodied in our invention. Fig. 4 is'a. View of a section of our invention on an enlarged scale, showing the manner of attaching the rings;.and Fig. 5 is a view with aweight attached at the bottom.
Like letters of reference mark the same parts in all the figures.
A is the attaching-iron, having a hook-point, co, a spring, 12, anda sharp rear point, 0.
B isa twisted or cable wire rope, to which are connected at intervals rings 0, either by 2 5 tying on inthe loop of an ordinary single knot,
or in anyother suitable manner.
I) is a pear-shaped weight, attached to the end of the wire rope.
The device may be attached to any ordinary 0 piece of furnitureand hung out of a window, thus furnishing a ready means of escape, and
may be passed around a larger article of t'urniture and thehooka snapped into one of the rings 0. In the event no furniture is available for this purpose, the point 0 may be driven into the window sill or frame, and if these be of metal or stone said point may be driven into. the floor. The weight serves to cause the wire rope to assume a perpendicular posi tion, and is also advantageous if it is desired to throw the escape into a window.
Having thus fully described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
1. The fire-escape herein described, consisting of the attaching-iron A, having book a, spring 0, and rear point, 0, the wire rope B, having the rings (3 knotted therein, and the weight D, all arranged and combined in the manner set forth.
2. The attaching-iron A a b c, as set forth.
In witness whereof we'bave hereunto set our hands.
GEORGE W. LINDSEY. HARRY W. RALEIGH. In presence of- S. BRASHEARS, W. A. BERTRAM.
