EDMUND QVRIGHT, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
CARRIAGE-UMBRELLA.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 295,140, dated March 11, 1884. Application filed December 26, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDMUND WRIGHT, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Carriage-Umbrellas, of which the following is a specification.
My invention consists of an improvement in that class of carriage-umbrellas in which the stem or stick of theumbrella is pivoted to the end of the standard or bow which projects over the body of the carriage, the objects of my improvements being to permit the ready application of the umbrella to, or the detaching of the same from, the standard or how, and to insure the maintenance'of the umbrella in its proper horizontal position when spread.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1, Sheet 1, is a side view of part of a childs carriage with my improved umbrella, the lat tcr being spread; Fig. 2, the same with the umbrella folded; Fig. 3, a sectional view of part of thesupport and umbrella, as the latter appears when spread; and Fig. 4, Sheet 2, a View on a largerscale, and showing the umbrella detached from the standard.
In Figs. 1 and 2, A representsthe body of the carriage, and B the curved standard or bow, secured to the back of the carriage and projecting over the top of the same. The front end of this standard is slotted for the reception of the lower end of a rod, D, which which forms the stem or stick of the umbrella, this tube being confined between a collar,
b, on the rod, and a screw cap or nut, d, adapted to the threaded upper end of the rod. To the tube F is secured the notch f, carrying the ribs 6 of the umbrella, and on the tube is guided the cap 9', to which the cover it of the umbrella is secured, the umbrella in the present instance being of the form known as a canopy-top, and a spring, '1', being interposed bctween the cap 9 and notch f. The usual runner, m, is connected by the stretchcrs n to the ribs e, but between said runner and the notch is interposed a spring, 12.
hen the umbrella is spread, the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 3, the rod D being turned up at right angles to the standard B, and the lower end of the runner bearing firmly upon the top of the standard, owing to the pressure of the spring p, so as to prevent any accidental shaking of the rod D from its vertical position. When it is desired to close the umbrella, however, the rod and the umbrella carried thereby are turned down in the direction of the arrow, Fig. 3, until the said rod D is in line with the horizontal upper part of the standard B, the runner mthen sliding on the latter, so as to permit the closing of the umbrella, which, when folded, lies snugly on the standard, and is out of the way of the occupant or occupants of the carriage. The use of the spring 12 is important, in order to insure the firm retention of the rod D in its vertical position, for in a flat umbrella of the character shown the angle of the stretchers a, when the umbrella is raised, is such that said stretchers exert but very little downward thrust upon the runner.
It will be observed ,1 reference to Fig. 4 that the umbrella is a self-contained structure, formed entirely on the tube F, and can be removed from the rod D after first removing the screw-cap d, and as readily applied to the rod, so that umbrellas of different styles may be kept in stock, and each carriage furnished with such an umbrella as the purchaser desires. A transverse pin or equivalent retainer may be substituted for the screw-cap, if desired; but the cap is preferred.
I claim as my inventioi1 1. The combination of the standard B of the carriage, the rod D, pivoted thereto, and having a collar, 1), the tube F, adapted to the rod D, and carrying the parts of the umbrella, and a cap or retainer, (1, whereby the tube is secured to the rod, as set forth.
2. The combination of the standard 13, the rod D, pivoted thereto, the runner on of the umbrella adapted to bear upon the top of the standard, and a spring, p, bearing on the runner, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
EDMUND WRIGHT.
