UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SYLVANUS F. BROOKS, OF YVESTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
INFANTS CRADLE.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 27,964, dated April 24, 1860.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SYLvANUs F. BRooKs, of Weston, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a Combined Cushion Settee and Cradle; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1, represents a perspective view of the cradle complete showing the canopy erected over the same. Fig. 2, shows the cradle of Fig. 1, converted into a cushioned settee or parlor stool. Fig. 3, is a transverse section taken through the settee of Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the three figures.
The object of this invention is to combine a settee or cushioned stool and .childs cradle in one and the same article of furniture in such a manner that the cradle may be transformed to an ornamental settee or vice versa, as may be desired without any additional attachment, or troublesome manipulations.
The invention has for its object, dispensing with two separate and indispensable articles of furniture, at the same time obtaining the advantage of either. A cradle is an article of furniture that although indispensable in some families at times is not always in demand and when not in immediate use it is most in the way of any article about a house.
By my invention and novel combination the cradle can be converted into a cushioned seat suitable for a parlor or sitting room and used both as an ornament and a handy article of furniture and handy to have in the house, the expense of which will be much less than that of the two articles if separately purchased. The cradle when used as such will have no appearance of a settee, nor will the settee when used as such have the appearance of a cradle, either as a cradle or as a settee the improved article of furniture, will present a neat and handsome appearance.
To these ends my invention consists in constructing and ornamenting the body and rockers of a cradle in a manner to be hereinafter described, so that it may be used by asimple change for a neat and convenient settee, combining with the same a suitable cushion which will serve as a bed when the article is used for a cradle.
To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand my invention I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
The box or body A, of the settee is formed very much in the usual manner viZ., wider at the bottom than at the top and the sides are carved out in such a manner as to give a neat and ornamental appearance to the article. The top B, is made to project over the sides an inch or more or less and covered with a half round head a. At each end of the box and projecting up from the bottom B, is placed a curved arm C, the ends of which are rounded as represented in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 so as to conform to the bead a, of the projecting bottom B. This box when thus constructed is supplied with a cushion D, having curtains hanging down over the sides and ends of the box. The projecting portions or arms C, C, serve to keep the ends of the cushion up in a neat rounded shape, and a still more important object viz, to prevent the cushion from slipping out of place, which it would do were these pieces not used. This forms a neat and portable article of furniture which may be made both ornamental and useful; and if necessary castors may be attached to the bottom corners. Now, by removing the cushion D, turning the box upside down, turning the cushion over and laying it in the bottom of the box, erecting a canopy J, over the head of the box a neat and convenient childs cradle will be formed as represented by Fig. 1. The box may be made of mahogany, walnut or any pretty wood carved and orna mented to suit the fancy.
Having thus described my invention what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
The combined cushioned settee and cradle constructed in the manner set forth as a new article of manufacture.
