UNITED STATES PATENT @FFIcn.
CHARLES E. LUBURG, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO GEORGE H. JACKSON, OF SAME PLACE.
RECLlNlNG-CHAIR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 282,095, dated July 81, 1883,
Application filed January 4, $83. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES E. LUBURG,
to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a perspective View. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view. Fig.- 3 is avertical sectional view, showing the chair in a different position. Fig. 4 is a detail View of the seat. Fig. 5 is a transverse vertical sectional view taken through the seat. Fig. 6 is a detail view of the foot-rest; and Fig. 7 is a side View of the chair, showing the foot rest in the act of being reversed for the pur pose of being adjusted under the seat.
Corresponding parts in the several figures are denoted by like letters of reference.
This invention relates to adj ustable reclining-chairs; and it consists in certain improvements in the construction of the same, which will be hereinafter fully described, and par ticularly pointed out in the claim.
The frame of my improved chair consists, essentially, of side rails, A A B B, pivoted together in pairs, as shown, so as to form the legs or supports, while the outer rails, A A, also extend upwardly, so as to form the backframe, at the upper end of which they are connected by a round, 0. A round, D, connects the upper ends of the rails B, so as to form the front rail of the seat. Rounds or braces E E also connect the lower ends of the rails A A and B B, respectively.
The seat-frame of my improved chair is composed, besides the round D, of arms F F, pivoted to the inner sides of the side rails, B, closely adjoining the ends of said round D. Said arms, which are made preferably of malleable iron, are provided at their lower edges with flanges G, and at their rear ends they have sockets H, to receive the ends of the rear seat-rail, I, which is secured by means of screws J, inserted from the outside.
To prevent the rail I from turning in its sockets, I prefer to make said rail and sockets either square or polygonal.
The covering of the chair is formed of a strip of textile fabric of any suitable kind,
-firmly secured to the round or front seat-rail,
the lower ends of the rails B. Said loops form pawls engaging teeth I? on the lower sides and at the rear ends of the arms N. The latter are connected by a cross-piece, Q, thus forming a frame which may be conveniently manipulated for the purpose of adjusting the chair.
R is the foot-rest, which consists of a suit- 75 able fiat board (or a frame) provided at its upper edge with castingsS, having laterallyprojecting lugs or pintles T, by which the said foot-rest is hinged to lugs or eyes U, suitably secured to the front seat-rail, D. The castings S also have bearings V, for sliding bolts W, forced upwardly by suitablyarranged springs X, so as to prevent the withdrawal of the pintles, when adjusted in the eyes U, until the said spring-bolts have been drawn back.
The sides of the foot-rest B have pivoted arms Y, provided at their lower ends with. loops or eyes Z, fitting around the adjustingarms N, and engaging teeth or ratchets A at the front ends of the latter, thereby sustaining the footrest in an inclined position, which may be adjusted by adjusting the arms Y. The under side of the foot-rest is provided at both sides with flanges B, the function of which will be presently set forth. 9 5
The operation of my invention will be readily understood from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the drawings hereto annexed. By means of the adjusting-arms N the'rails A B maybe so adjusted as to adjust 10 the angle between the seat and back to any desired degree, thus making the chair convertible from a sitting into a reclining chair or couch, or vice versa. WVhen the back is lowered, it will be seen that the foot-rest is simultaneously raised by the arms Y being pushed forward and outward, thus accommodating it to the reclining posture of the occupant of the chair.
Owing to the construction, as described, of the seat, the latter is never liable to sag, and the chair is, in all its different positions, 0011- venient and comfortable.
lVhen it is not desired to use the foot-rest, it may be detached from the round D, reversed or turned upon its pivots, (the arms Y rem aining attached to the arms N,) and slid in under the seat, the side rails of which have flanges, as described, which engage the flanges on the under side of the foot-rest.
Arnrrests C may be provided, pivoted to the rails A, and having pivoted supports pivoted to the rails B.
The chair and foot-rest may be upholstered in any suitable manner.
I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States As an improvement in reclining-chairs, the combination of a supporting-frame, the flanged rails F, the bar 1, connecting the rear ends of the said rails, the bars N N on the inside of the supporting-frame, the foot-rest provided with flanges, as set forth, devices connecting said foot-rest detachably to the chair-frame, and the bracerods Y Y, pivoted at one end to the footrest, and provided with loops embracing the bars N and engaging notches in the said bars, as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereunto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES E. LUBURG.
