DUST-COVER FOR BUGGIES.
EPZBCIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 391,396, dated October 23, 1888.
Application filed July 16, 1888. Serial No. 280,118. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ADoLrHUs EARTH, a cltizen of the United States, residing at St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dust-Covers for Buggies, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to dustprotectors placed over the tops of buggies when they are lowered down; and it consists in the manner of forming and constructing the edges and the holding-straps, as hereinafter shown and described, and specifically pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a buggy-top with one of my improved dustcovers arranged thereon. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectiona1 view of the bows on the'line XX of Fig.1. Fig. 3 is an enlarged crosssectlonal view about on the line Y Y of Fig. 1, illustrating more fully the construction of the edge of the cover and how it is supported upon the face of the upper or forward bow. Figs. 4 and 5 are enlarged perspective sections of the cover, illustrating modifications in its construction.
A represents the seat, B the top rails, O C the bows forming the frame for supporting the top, D the leather of the top, and E the back of the seat, (shown onlyin dotted lines in Fig. 1,) all these parts being constructed in the usual manner.
The braces are not shown in the drawings, as they form no part of the presentinvention, and their presence would cover up and interfere with the clearness of the drawings.
F represents the dust-protector, which is made of rubber, eloth,-leather, or other suit able material, and formed to fit around the edge of the upper bow, G, and cover the seatback E, and held in place at its forward corners F by straps F which are connected to the corners F and wrapped around the bows CO and caught over buttons at on the rails B, as
The edges of the dust-protector F are formed l with a cord, 1), sewed into it, as shown more clearly in Figs. 4 and 5, to enlarge the edge and cause it to embrace the projecting rim (1 of the forward or upper bow, C, as shown in Fig. 3, and cling tenaeiously thereto. The tighter the cloth forming the body of the cover F is stretched the more firmly will the edge cling to the bow, and requiring no other fastening than the straps F By this simple device I produce a cover that will not get out of place under any circumstances, and which does not require the insertion of extra buttons or fastenings upon the bows or other parts. The buttons or for the straps F are so placed on the rails B as to draw the cover forward and stretch it tightly over the bows, and are the same buttons by which the side curtains are secured when the top is raised, requiring,therefore,no extra buttons to secure the dust-cover. The straps also perform an important .function in holding the bows down tightly in place, and thus avoid the necessity for additional straps for that purpose.
In Figs. 3 and 5 the edge of the cover F is shown formed with an extra seam, b, which gives a more finished and symmetrical appean ance to the cover, but which does not materially aid in its holding qualities when in operation.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is As a new article of manufacture, a dustcover for buggy-tops, formed of the body F, having cord 1) in its edges to embrace the rim of the forward bow, and provided with straps F, by which the cover may be stretched over the top when the latter is down, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto setm y hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ADOLPHUS EARTH.
