UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
RICHARD H. EVVING, OF NICOLLET COUNTY, MINNESOTA.
BOOKING-CHAIR CONVERTIBLE INTO A CRADLE.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 28,166, dated May 8, 1860.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RICHARD H. EWING, of the county of Nicollet and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and Improved Rocking-Chair Cradle, being a Rocking- Chair and Cradle Combined, the rocking chair being so constructed and arranged that it can by a very simple movement be converted into a cradle in a moment or back again into a rocking-chair; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Figure l, represents a rocking chair, constructed upon my improved plan, and showing, in blue lines, the first change necessary to transform it into a cradle; and, Fig. 2, a vertical section of the same, taken through the center of Fig. 1. Fig. 3, represents the second and third positions of the chair as being converted into a cradle. Fig. 4, represents the completion of that change, by which the chair has been converted into a cradle.
The nature of my invention consists in attaching the upper part of the chair, by a bar hinge, to a swivel bed, which is connected to the rocker truck by a large pin, thus enabling the back of the chair to be lowered and swivel around so as to form a cradle.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
I construct my chair -of three parts; the first consists of the back, a., arms, b, and seat, c, all fastened firmly together like those of an ordinary chair; the second part, cl, is the swivel bed, similar in size and shape to the seat of the chair, and is attached to the first,
or upper part, by means of bar hinges, e, e, by which the back can be raised or lowered at pleasure; the third or bottoni part is like that of an ordinary rocking chair, with the rockers, f, f, firmly attached to the rocker truck, g, which is also made of the same size and shape as the seat; the swivel bed, d, and the rocker truck, g, are attached by means of a strong pin, It, passing through their center, by which means the back, after being lowered, can be swiveled around, at right angles with the rockers, and thus form a cradle. To change it from a chair to a cradle, stand in front of it, and draw the first part forward until the hinges pass the perpendicular, and then let fall the back upon the swivel bed, then rotate, to either right or left, until the back lies at right angles with the rocker truck, and you have a cradle complete.
I do not claim the attaching the back or upper part by means of bar hinges, neither do I claim the swiveling the upper part of the chair, for both of these are in common use separately.
Wha-t I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The attaching the upper part of the chair to a swivel bed, by means of bar hinges, in combination with the swivel bed, attached to the rocker truck, by means of a pin, in the manner described and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony whereof, I do hereunto set my hand to this specification.
RICHARD II. EVVING.
