G. B, HA-YNE$. CANOPY FOR GARRIAGES.
No, 334,584. I Patented J n. 19, 1886.
ATTORNEY 'threaded bolts are screwed into them. The
bolts 0 being the same size of the interior of Nirnn TATES CANO PY FO R CARREAGES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 336,584, dated January 19, 1886.
Application filed August 15, 1885;
T0 at whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CARLOS B. HAYNES, a citizen of the United States, residing at North Adams, in the county of Berkshire and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Canopies for Carriages,-of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the ac companying drawings.
The subject of my invention is an adjustable canopy for carriages; and the invention consists of a canopy divided into two sections, which are hinged to a rod on a line nearly over the axial line of the seat of the carriage, and are sustained by the said rod and supporting tubular standards, and are raised and lowered by means of devices hereinafter specified, and particularly set forth and combined in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of my improved devices supported by the carriage-seat. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of a carriage body and seat with my improvements. Fig. 3 is an enlarged View of one of the yokes which connect the tubular standards. Fig. 4. is an enlarged view of a sleeve. Fig. 5 illustrates the manner of fastening the tubular standard to the clips. Fig. 6 is an enlarged view of a clip.
Similar letters refer to similar parts th roughout the several views.
The standards A and the yokes F are preferably made tubularin form, in order to afford increased strength and stiffness, and at the same time diminish the weight of metal. Small sized gas-pipe is easily attainable and less expensive than solid rods, and the sections are more easily put together and make better joints. These tubular standards rest upon projecting ends of clips G, that are fastened to the ends and to the bottom of the carriage -seats. Screw-threads are cut in the lower ends of the tubular standards, and
lower ends of these bolts oare also threaded and extend downward through the clips and are firmly held thereto by means of nuts N N. The interior of the tubes being of smaller diameter than their circumference, and the Serial No. 174,480. (No model) the tube and of the holes in the clips through which they pass, a shoulder is formed by the shell of each tube, which rests upon the upper surface of each clip, while the nuts N hold the shoulder to the clip. Arod, H, extending crosswise of the carriage, is fastened at each end to a yoke, F, by nuts and screws, or in any suitable manner. This rod serves as an axle for the hinges of both sections D D of the canopy. The sleeves B slide easily up and down on the standards A, and have on one side an ear, (or preferably two ears with a slot, as shown in Fig. 4,) and on the other side a set-screw, T. The braces E are hinged at one end to the ears B and at the other end to the canopy D. It will be observed that the two sections of the canopy are arranged and operated independently of each other, and that either section can be raised or lowered by sliding up or down the sleeves B, and they may be set on a plane or level with each other or at any desired angle below the plane by turning the set-screw T, as clearly shown in Fig. 2.
Although the supporting-frame of the canopy is preferably made of tubes, 1 claim the right to construct it of any solid material.
The occupant of a carriage furnished with my improvements is enabled to protect himself against the effects of thesun in hot weather and against rain and wind in stormy weather.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination of a carriage-seat, clips secured to the carriage-seat, hollow standards secured to the clips, and yokes connecting the standards, substantially as described.
2. The combination of standards connected by yokes, a rod connecting the yokes, and sections of a canopy hinged to the rod, substantially as described.
3. The combination of hollow standards having hollow connecting-yokes, a rod connectingtheyokes,vertically-adj ustablesleeves, and rods for connecting the sleeves and canopy, substantially as described.
4. A canopy divided into two sections, in combination with arod to which both sections are hinged, and two sets of yoked standards consisting of tubular standards A A, having interior screw-threads at their lower ends, bolts 0 0, threaded at both ends, the upper ends being screwed into the threads of the tubular standards, threaded nuts N N, screwed onto the lower ends of the bolts, in combination with clips G G, seat S, and yoke F, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof Iaffix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
