HEAD AND BAGK FOR. LOUNGES.
Patented Oct. 9
STATES UN 115E ATnN r HEAD AND BACK FOR LOUNGES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No, 390,703, dated October 9, 1888.
Application filed July 5), 1886. Renewed June 5, 1868. Serial No. 270,263. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, ANDREW G. PHILLIPS, a resident of the city and county of San Francisco,State of California, have invented a newand useful Improved Lounge-Bedstead; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to improved means for adjusting the end of the lounge, and for providing the back with adjustable feet for its support when thelounge is used as a bedstead.
The following description fully explains the nature of my said invention and the manner in which I proceed to construct, apply, and use the same, the accompanying drawings being referred to by figures and letters.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the lounge, showing the ratchets in the upright pieces of the end of the lounge, the bolt-with spiral spring, the pivoted feet on the lounge-back, the pivoted bar with block attached arranged to work in recess and on the foot of the lounge, and the swinging bar and its attachment. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, showing the at tachrnent of the back to the loungeframe, parts being shown in section. Fig. 3 is an end elevation and part section of the lounge,showing the attachment of the back, one pivoted foot, the swinging bar attached to rods and cord, and the bolt with spring attached to the movable bar. Figs. at and 5 are detail views showing theattachmentof the back to the seat, the pivoted bar with block attached pivoted on the foot of the lOungeframc, the grooves in the recess for the action of pivoted bar and block, the pivoted foot, the swinging bar, and the boltwith spring. Figs. 6, 7, and 8 are detail views showing bolt with spiral spring attached to movable bar, the ratchet on upright end of lounge, and the tooth on movable bar.
My improvement consists in attaching to an ordinary lounge-bedstead an adjustable end, and to the back a swinging supporting-bar and adjustable feet.
Referring to Fig. 1, the upright pieces I) of the end a of the lounge-frame are pivoted on a bolt, q, to the side of the frame, and the lower end of each upright piece has ratchets b", to engage with the teethl of the movable beveled bar d. This bar extends across the head of the frame, the outer end acting in a slot, 0, in the front side of the frame, and the i inner end attached to a bolt, 0, which projects through the inner side of the frame, where a spring, 0*, is attached at one end of the frame and at the other end to the bolt, around which it coils. On the beveled face of the bar, near each end, there is a single tooth, d, which acts in the ratchet end of the upright pieces b, while the outer end of the bar acts, as above described, in the beveled slot 0 in the outer side piece of the lounge-frame.
The back is attached to the lounge-frame by bars h h", one of which is screwed to the frame and the other to the back, and the other ends are pivoted together. The end piece of the back and an adjoining piece form a recess, 1', on each end for the pivoted footp and the pivoted bar 7; and block Z, which bar and block are pivoted together. The foot 1) is pivoted in the top of this recess, and the pivoted bar and block attached travel in grooves m in the sides of the recess, the pivot-pin projecting through the bar into the groove on one side, and a rib on the block acting in the groove on the otherside. The lower end of the pivoted bar is pivoted in a recess in the leg of the lounge-frame, Fig. 1.
On the back of the back-frame I attach a swinging bar, '5, by a rod, j, one end of which rodj is attached to the bar 2', and the other end, forming an eye, is pivoted on a bolt, a, set in the side of the upright piece at, forming recess 1'. Near the lower end of this piece a there is a small recess, 8, to receive the swing ing bar when the back is up and hold it in that position. A. cord, passes from the center upright piece of the back-frame to the swinging bar,to which it is attached, to prevent the bar from swinging too far outward.
In adjusting the end of thelounge to a level or any desired angle the bolt 0 is pressed, which action moves the beveled bar d and releases the tooth d from the ratchet end of the upright pieces b, and permits the end of the lounge to fall to the point desired, where it is adjusted by removing pressure from the bolt and allowing the spiral spring 0* to react and carry the movable bar inward and permit the tooth to set in the ratchet ends of the pieces I) and hold them in place. This adj ust ing arrangement may be placed at either or both ends of thelounge.
In adjusting the lounge for a double bed- 5 stead the swinging bar is released from recess 8 and swings outward on the rods j, the cord gprevcnting it from swinging too far outward, and the back of the lounge is brought down to a horizontal position, which action causes the pivoted foot p to swing out of recess 0- in a vertical position, and the pivoted bar it, with block Z attached, to move in the grooves m against the foot and lock it and hold it in position. Iain aware that previous to my inventio bed-lounges have been provided with pivoted ends or heads having ratchet attachments for holding the heads in various positions of adjustment, as desired, and hence I do not claim 20 such arrangement, broadly; but,
Having thus fully described my invention,
what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a lounge'bedstead, the adjustable end having upright pieces b,with ratchets bfipivoted on a bolt, q, to the lounge-frame, and adjusted by a beveled bar, (I, having a toot-11,11) near each end, and operating-bolt c and spiral spring 0*, substantially as herein described, and for-"the purpose set forth.
2. In a lounge-bedstead, the back thereof provided with the swinging bar t, attached by rodsj to bolt 11 on the back-frame, in combination with the end frames having recesses sand cord 9, and the pivoted feet 12, in combination with pivoted bar Inwith block Z, work' ing in the grooves m,and recess was described, and for the purpose set forth.
