CHAlR-BRACE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 374,997, dated December 20, 1887.
Application filed April 23, 1887. Serial No. 235,899.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that l, GEORGE REMALY, a citizen of the United States, residing at VVilliamsport, (Soutli,)in the county of Lycorning and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvemeutsin Chair-Braces; 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 appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my invention. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of same. Fig. 3 is a side elevation; Fig. 4, adetail view ofone pair of the wires; Fig. 5,a detail showing ends of wire secured in legs or back.
Chairs as ordinarily constructed cause great trouble and inconvenience to the user, because the rungs frequently come out of their seats in the legs, and because the legs and back come out or their seat or body.
The objectof my presentinvention is to provide a chair or settee in which the back rungs and legs will be securely held in place, or the rungs may be dispensed with, if desired, and which will have great stability and firmness; and it consists in twisting two pairs of wires, each pair twisted on each other near the mid die, and the two pairs so twisted crossing each other at right angles and bound together under the chair-seat, the free ends of said wires being secured to the legs, seat, and back at the four corners, all as will now be fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, A represents a chair pro vidcd with my invention; a, the bottom or seat, and a the legs, and a the rungs. Under the bottom or seat, and connected at their respective ends I) b and 00, are the wire braces B and C. These are madein pairs twisted together for a short distance at b a, near their middle, as shown in Fig. 1. In applying these wires to the chair their twisted portions are crossed at right angles, so that the free ends I) b of the brace B will be'attached, respectively, at the front to one of the front legs near its middle (No model.)
length and to the edge of the bottom or seat and at the rear to one of the rear legs, and passing through the bottom or seat be secured to the frame (I of the backD. In like manner the free ends of the braces G are secured in front and at the rearto the opposite front post and corner and back of the chair. \Vhcn the free ends of the wires have been placed in the positions indicated, the wires can be drawn taut and secured in and to the legs and back in any desired way. As now shown, they have been simply tightened by pinchers, and then the ends being bent are forced into the wood and covered with putty and paint; but this detail of construction may be carried out in any desired way.
When the wires have been tightened and fixed in place, the headed bolt F is passed centrally between the wires and secured by bolt f. Thus the wires are rigidly secured together.
By this construction no warping or use will dislodge the rungs from the legs, or the legs from the seat or bottom, or the back from the seat or body, because the wires tie and secure all these parts together; but in use it is best for appearance and finish to put in rungs. This invention is adapted not only to the ordinary wood or cane seat chair, but to stulfe'dseat chairs and to settees also.
This device is easily and cheaply made and is exceptionally durable in use.
Having now described my inventiomwhat I consider new, and wish to protect by Letters Patent, is-
In combination with the wires B B and O 0, each pair twisted together near their middle and crossing at right angles at their twisted parts under the chair, the legs, seat, and back, as set forth, and the headed bolt F, passed centrally between the wires and secured by the nutf, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I aliix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEO. REMALY.
