GEORGE J. SAURBREY, OF COLUMBUS, OHIO.
FOLDING STOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 366,884, dated July 19, 1887.
(No model.)
To all whont it may concern:
Be it known that I, GnonouJ. SAURBREY, of Columbus, in the county of Franklin and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Folding Stools; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to folding stools, the object being to provide a stool that may be readily folded into small compass when not in usc,and again be readily opened out and adjusted so as to form a strong and comfortable seat or stand, it" desired.
It is found desirable that a portable folding stool be folded into small enough compass to iit the pocket orasatchel and at the same time be strong enough to support a considerable weight without danger ot' breaking. By my invention I provide a stool having the foregoing qualities; and it consists in a center post having screw-threaded ends and rigid heads, the latter located at the juncture of the screwthreaded ends and body, legs pivoted to the lower head, arms pivoted to the upper head, the said legs and arms having projecting lugs, and the screw-caps mounted on the screwthreaded ends and provided ou their inner faces with circular rims or flanges.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a view in elevation, partly in section, of my invention7 showing the stool with seat or top detached and the arms andlegs unfolded ready for the attaching of the scat or top. In the drawings, four arms and legs are shown, as I prefer to use this number, but three or more may be used, it' desired, with good results. Fig. 2 is a view in elevation showing the stool folded upaud ready for placing in pocket or packing in satchel. Figs. 3, 4, 5, and 6 are views in detail of several of the parts of the stool,showing more clearly their construction.
A in the drawings represents the center post of my stool, which is provided with two heads, A A2, one at the upper end and one at the lower end. Extending radially from the heads A A2 are lugs:c,to which are pivotally secured the arms b at the upper end and the 5o legs b at thelowcr end, the arms b and legs b being so secured as to swing freely in a vertical direction.
Adjustably secured to the outer ends ol' the center post, A, are two caps, C and C', one at the upper end and one at the lower end. These caps C C are provided each with an annular flange or rim, c, and are so located that by adjusting the said caps toward the heads A A2 the rim is caused to embrace the lugs b2 on the pivoted end ot' the several arms and legs. The lugs b2 are set off atan angle to the arms b and legs b', and thus when the cap-pieces are adjusted, as heretoforementioned, the arms and legs are prevented from spreading and are held securely in place. At the outer ends of the upper arms, b, which are designed to support the seat or stand-top, are placed engaginghooks b", which may be formed rigid with the arms or pivotally secured thereto, as is most desirablcor convenient. The construction ot' the hooks when formed rigid with the arm is shown clearly in Fig. l, and will need no description. Vhen the hook is pivoted to the arm, as shown in Fig. 4, it is so attached to the arms as to swing in a vertical direction and is provided with a long and short arm, the short arm being hook-shaped and adapted to engage with loops on the scat or standtop and the long arm having an embracinghook adapted to engage with thearmol" thestool. Thelower end ofthe legs b are provided with feet bito prevent them from entering the ground when set up in soft or mai-shy places. rlhc scat or top D is formed of any suitablematcrial,either flexible or rigid, and is secured to the arms b of the stool by being provided with suitable loops, D', a number of which are shown in the drawings, which engage with the hooks on the outer end ot' the arms b,- or either of them may be secured in any other suitable manner, so that they can be easily removed to allow of the folding up of the arms and legs of the stool.
Another mode ofsecuring the top tothe arms IOO shown in Fig. l; or thebraces may be dispensed with. Thematerialof which my stool or stand is made is either Wood and metal or entirely metal, as may loe desired.
What I claim is* 1. In a portable stool or stand, the combination, with a center post having a screw- `threaded end and a rigid head, the latter being located between said end and the body of the post, of the arms or legs pivoted to said head and adapted to be folded against the post,and provided at their pivoted ends with projecting lugs, and the screw-cap mounted on the screwthreaded end of the post, and having a circular rim on its inner face adapted to engage the lugs and lock the arms or legs'in their extended positions.
2. The combination, with the center post lower head, arms pivoted to the upper head,
the said legs and arms having projecting lugs,
and the screw-caps mounted on the screw-- threaded ends and provided on their inner faces with circular rims or flanges, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof l sign this specification,in the presenceof tWoWit-nesses, this 30th 3o day of August, 1886.
