SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 391,206, dated October 16, 1888.
(No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, DAVID L. SNEDIKER and J mm B. GRAHAM, of Emporia, Lyon county, State of Kansas, FRANKLIN D. Mo- CoLLUM, of Florence, Marion county, State of Kansas, and ISAIAH F. SNEDIKER, of Independence, Jackson county, Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Head-Rests, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
The object of our invention is to produce an improved portable headrcst adapted for attachment to the back of a car or other seat or chair and to support the head and be capable of folding up in compact form for transportation.
Our improvements consist in certain combinations of parts which we will now describe in detail, and then succinctly specify in our appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front elevation, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation, of our improved head-rest. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a formal variation of our de vice, and Fig. -L is a detail view of a part of the same, showing a set-screw fastening for adjustment of the rest to suit different persons and situations. Fig. 5 shows the form of headrest illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2 in its folded condition; and Fig. 6 shows the clamp-jaws sprung inward on the cylinder, so as to dis connect them from studs I'I. Fig. 7 shows a set-screw connection between the cylinder and the supportingclamp.
Referring particularly to the letters upon Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings, A indicates a block or cylinder, which may be of wood or any other suitable material, through which pass the two branches of the standard 13. This standard is adapted to slide up and down through the holes in the cylinder, so as to lengthen or shorten it to suit different persons and different kinds of seats.
0 indicates a rest for the head,hinged or pivoted to the curved ends D of the standard B, which standard may be composed of a single piece of metal properly bent to form two branches, as illustrated.
E indicates a staple secured to the cylinder,
of a single piece of resilient metal bent so as to form the rings G, surrounding the cylinder, and also the opposite springjaws of the clamp F.
H indicates pins or studs fixed in the cylinder, and I indicates a segmental rack secured 6 5 to the rings G.
The operation of our improved head-rest is as follows: Supposing it to be unfolded, as illustrated in Fig. 1, the standard is adjusted up or down to suit the individuah Then the clamp is secured to the back of a seat, as represented in Fig. 2. In order to adjust the standard and head-rest to the proper inclination, the clamp-jaws may be sprung inward, as
indicated in Fig. 6, so as to release the studs H. The standard can then be tilted ,by turning the cylinder toany desired position, when the clam p-j aws can be released, and they will spring out so that the segmental racks will engage with the studs and hold the standard and head-rest in their adjusted position. By this means we provide a head-rest well adapted for use by travelers upon cars, which is light, cheap, sin1ple,and durable, which can be folded in compact form for transportation, and which can be conveniently applied to use upon the back of any ordinary seat.
In Fig. 3 we show a flat standard 13, secured to the cylinder A and to the rest 0 by means of guide-plates L and set-screws M of usual character, by which all necessary vertical adjustments can be had; but this form is not preferable. Any ordinary means-such, for example, as common set-screws N, (shown in Fig. 7,)--for connecting and disconnecting the clamp and the cylinder, so that the head-rest can be tilted and adjusted into position and then fixed there, or so that the folding for transportation may be accomplished, can be used instead of the studs and segmental rack shown, our invention not being confined to that particular form of means for connect- 'ing and disconnecting the clamp and the cylinder.
What we claim as new is The combination of the block or cylinder A, the adjustable standard 13, secured thereto, the clamp F, for attaching the rest to a seat, the rings G, secured to the clamp and surrounding the ends of the cylinder, the segmental racks I upon the rings, and the studs H, projecting from the cylinder, so as to engage with the rack, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof we have hereunto sub- 20 scribed our names.
