FOLDING GABlNET=BED.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 319,135, dated June 2, 1835.
Application filed November 12, 1884. (No model.)
.To all whom t may concern.-
Be it known that I, FRED. Serienr, of Buchanan, in the county of Berrien and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvernents in Folding Cabinet-Beds; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and-exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form (a part of this specication.
This invention relates to an improvement in cabinet folding bedsteads.
' The invention consists in the peculiar construction and arrangement of the parts of the bedstead in connection with a coil-spring bedbottom, so that the same may be folded in a compact and easy manner, and as readily be unfolded again. v
In the drawings which accompany this specification, Figure l is a perspective view of my improved bedstead,with the larger portions of the head and foot boards broken away so as to more readily disclose the construction of the other parts. Fig. 2 is a vertical central crosssection of the same as it appears when folded. Fig. 8 is a crosssection of the same online aow in Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a vertical longitudinal sec.- t-ion of a simplified form of the saine.
A is the head-board. B is the foot-board. C C are the folding side-rail sections pivot-ally secured at D to the head and foot boards, respectively; and E are cap-rails or intermediate side-rail sections, to which the side rails, C C, are pivotally secured at F F. As these parts do not form any part of my invention, but constitute a folding cabinet-bedstead frame of known construction, wherein the folding is accomplished bylifting the side rails up in the center and folding them rule-fashion, I will not describe them any further.
IVithin the side rails, C C, I secure a spring bed-bottom of that kind wherein the springs are supported by cross-slats, such as the slats G; but, instead of securing the latter in the usual manner, I secure them by means of hangers I, so that they are below the lower edge of the side rails,and so spaced that when the bedsiead is folded the slats of one half enter into the interstices between the slats of the other half, as shown in Fig. 2. This arrangement 5o greatly economizes the space which the spring bed-bottom would otherwise occupy in folding.
In the center of the bed-bottom I preferably secure two inclined rows of springs upon one loedslat. By this arrangement a larger amount of springs can be placed without crowding the slats, as it will be observed that near the center the interstices between the slats have to be somewhat larger than nearer the ends, to enable the folding. The construction hereinbefore described is shown in Fig. 4,which shows 6o my improvement in its simplest form. There the least possible height,however,is an object, as it generally is, I construct my folding bedstead in the form shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 8. The construction shows the bed-bottom con- 6 5 structed and secured within the side rails independently thereof.
The slats Gr are supported by the afore-described hangers Lwhich, however, are secured to sliding subrails M M,provided with exten- 7c sions m. Between the inner ends of leach of the extensions of these sliding sub-rails a short block, N,with rounding ends is secured to the caprail E, and cam-blocks O are secured to the head and foot boards, so as to operate against the outer ends of the sliding` sub-rails. The operation of these blocks N O is as follows: hen the bedstead is in its unfolded state,the sub-rails M abut with their ends against these blocks, but when the bedstead is now folded, 8o the sub-rails, freed from contact with the blocks O and the blocks N, fall by their gravity so as to rest underneath the block N, as seen in Fig.
2. The object of this movement is to have the bed-bottom in its foldedl condition as low as possible within the cabinet, so as to get space on top for the bed-cloth. -When the bedstead Vis then unfolded again, the blocks O operate against the outer ends of the sliding sub-rails and push themback inwardly, so that when 9o the bed is completely unfolded the parts are again in their original position. As the center slat, J, must now be allowed to drop also when the bedst-ead is folded, I support it by means of flexible straps L,secured to the inner ends of the sliding sub-rails. These flexible straps insure the free and proper movement of all the parts in the act of folding and unfolding. They allow of the easy removal of the Y bed-bottom, and they keep the cross-slatsJ in roo the proper relative position to support, when the bedstead is folded, the top of the bed-bot and also prevent the sliding sub-rails from get- Y ting accidentally displaced.
In another application filed by .me September 24, 1884, Serial No. 143,840, Ihave shown and claimed a saddle over the meeting ends of the side rails, hence no claim is made to such feature in this application.
lVhat I claim as my invention isl. In a eabinet'folding bedstead, thecombination of main side rails adapted to be folded in the center,with folding sub-rails sliding on the main rails yand carrying the mattress independent ofY the .main side rails, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. In acabinet folding bedstead. wherein the rails are folded upward in the center, a series of cross-slats carried by one half of the `side rails, and a series of crossslats lcarried by `the other half of the side rails, both 'series being so arranged that `when folded the slats of one series Will enter into the i nterstices between the slats of the other series, substantially as described.` l
.3. In a cabinet folding bedstead, the combination,witl1 the side rails, of the subrails M, the hangers I, secured to said sub-rails, and
the slats G, supported by said hangers below the lower edge of said side rails, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
4. In a folding cabinet-bedstead, the combination,with the side rails, of a cap-rail, E, to which said rails are pivoted, a cam-block, N, secured to said cap-rail, sub-rails M, provided with extensions m, and the flexible strap L, connecting said extensions, substantially as described.
