FRED H. -HENRY, OF WAKEFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
RAILWAY-CAR SEAT ORA SETTEE.
SPECIFICATION forming part QfLetters Patent No. 367,394, dated August 2, 1887.
Application filed February 17, 1886. Serial No. 192,177. (No model.) I
versible Backs; and I do hereby declare the same to be described in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which-*- Figure l is a longitudinal section; Fig. 2, an outer side view, and Fig. 3, transverse section, of a car chair or settee provided with my invention, the nature of which is defined in the claim hereinafter presented. Fig. 4t is a vertical section, on an enlarged scale, of the arm D, the slotted portion of the end frame, B, and the stud and frictionroller of the said arm D. Fig. 5 is another such section showing a simple headed stud to project from and turn in the arm D and the slot d of the frame B, which stud I sometimes use in the place of such friction-roller and stud.
In carrying out my improvement the seat Aor its supporting frame F, is pivoted at the middle of each end thereof to one of the arm-rests sustaining parts a, of the frame B, the pivot being shown at b. From the seat, or its frame F at the middle of each end thereof, a rigid arm C projects upward, and at its upper part is jointed to one of the two supporting-arms D of the back E, the joint being near the end of the said arm. In front of the joint there projects from the arm D, through a vertical slot, d, in the upper part of the arm-rest parta, a stud or pin, c, carrying a friction-roller, d', there being xed on the outer end of the stud a metallic disk,
, e, having a diameter greater than thel width other of the said extreme positions. In turnof the slot.
In some casesl the friction-rollers may be omitted and the studs alone may be used to extend into the slots in the end frames, provided such studs be of sufficient width; but it is preferable to have the friction-rollers.
As usual, each end portion or part a of the frame B is provided with two back-stops, ff, upon one of which the arm D rests when the back E is in either of its extreme positions.
In Fig. 3 the seat and back are shown by full lines in one and by dotted lines in the ing the back from either over into the other of such positions, it will be seen that the seat or its supporting-frame will be simply tilted 'without its pivots being either raised or low-V ered, and that the studs and their'frictionrollers Vwill be moved first downward and next upward within their slots d. When the seat and its supporting frame have to be lifted, in order for the back to be turned over or reversed/7 the weight of the seat and the said frame becomes an impedimcntto be overcome, and thus increases the power required to manipula-te the back.
With my improvement there is no drawing of the seat or its sustaining-frame upward, or vertical motions of them Aat their middle, that would result were the arms D pivoted or fulcrumcd to the end frames, as is the case with those represented in the United States Patent No. 334,957, or in the United States Patent No. 95,283, the seat of the chair or setteeshown in such-patent having to be moved both upward and downward while being tilted from one to therother of its extreme inclined positions.
y In my chair or settee the seat and the back come into their proper inclined situations relatively to each other in each forward or rearward-movement of the back.
In Fig. 5 the slotted upper part of the armrest part of the frame B is shown at ci, the slot at d, the headed stud at c, the latter being applied to the slot and the arm D, so as to either turn freely in each, or to be firmly fixed in the arm D without' being capable of turning therein.
The chair or settee havingV its seat or its supporter pivoted to the end portions of the frame, and provided with rigid arms extending upward from it at its ends and jointed at their upper parts to the arms of the back, and such arms provided with studs, or with studs and friction-rollers thereon, extended into vertical slots in the said end portions of the frame, all being substantially and to operj Witnesses:
It. H. EDDY, B. B. TORREY.'
