DAVID M. PARRY AND THOMAS H. PARRY, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
VEHICLE=SEAT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 398,179, dated February 19, 1889.
Application filed November 17, 1888. Serial No.29l,163. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, DAVID M. PARRY and THOMAS H. PARRY, citizens of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vehicle-Seats; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the il'ivention, such as will enable others skilled in theart to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to imjn'ovemenis in seats for two-wheeled vehicles-such sulkies, road-carts, &o.the object of the invention being to produce a cheap, durable, and light seat for two-wheeled vehicles that will have resilient qualities, whereby it will readily yield to weight caused by sudden jars in riding, to thereby obviate the disagreeable rebounds experienced with seats of ordinary construction. I
Another object of theinvention is to so construct and arrange the parts of the seat that should any part become broken it may be quickly removed and replaced without disturbing the other parts.
The invention consists in certain details of construction and in the special combination and arrangement of the several parts of the seat, substantially as hereinafter described, and set forth in the claims.
Figure 1 represents a front view of a seat slightly inclined, constructed in accordance with our invention; Fig. 2, enlarged sectional detail showin the manner in which the slats are secured in the frame; Fig. 3, an enlarged perspective detail showing a modified construction of frame and arrangement of slats. Fig. 4 is a modification.
The seat, which is secured to the vehicle in any usual or suitable manner, consists, essentially, of the front and back rails, A B, and end rails, G D, (which constitute the open frame,) the guard-rail E, its supports e, and the slats F. The rails which constitute the frame will be secured together in the usual manner by dovetailing or otherwise.
The front and back rails, A B, will have their inner faces grooved longitudii'ially their entire length, as shown at a, to receive the ends of the slats F, which slats willbe slipped in preferably from the ends of said rails before the frame is put together. They may be inserted after the frame is put together, if desired, which will be hereinafter described.
The guard-rail E will be of usual construction and arrangement.
The slats F will be made, preferably, 0 f thin strips of elastic woodsuch as hickory-but may, if desired,be made from resilient metal, such as spring-steel. These slats, as shown in the drawings, Figs. 1 and 2, will preferably be secured in the groove a, by nails or otherwise, with their adjacent edges remote from each other, s meingblocks G being preferably secured. in the groove a, by gluing or otherwise, between the slats to prevent lateral or side movement of the same, as shown in Fig. 3. The slats F might, however, be loosely seated at their ends in the grooves a, it being preferal'lle, however, to secure them at their ends by pins or nails, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, to prevent accidental displacement, an elongated hole being preferably formed in the end of the slat, through. which the pin or nail eX- tends to allow aslight longitudinal movement of the slat.
By withdrawing the pin. or nail, if either is used, and bending a slat at its center it may be quickly taken out, which is advantageous, as new slats may be quickly secured in place when the old ones become damaged.
The construction forms a light and very easy-riding seat, especially for two-wheeled vehicles, which are subjected to greater jars than heavy vehicles, and is less liable to become broken than a seat having a solid wooden bottom, as solid-bottom seats are apt to crack and break from warpincaused by expansion and swelling.
The seats herein described will not warp, as sufficient play is allowed in the groove to for expansion and swelling.
In Fig. 3 the slats are shown as resting upon a flange formed on the front and back rails of the seat, and as secured from the top, the inner edges of the said rails being rabbeted to receive each a retaining-strip, b, which is set into said rabbet and secured to the rails near their ends, the said strip having alternate notched and projected portions to fit around the slats F. If desired, this retaining-strip I) may be of elastic material, movably secured at one end, whereby the slats as they are depressed at their centers will strike at their ends against the retaining-strips, which will yield somewhat, thus relieving the slats of some strain and forming a seat-bottoln that will yield longitudinally as well as transversely.
l/Ve clairn 1. In a vehicle-seat, the combination of the front and back rails, A B, grooved longitudinally on their inner faces their entire length, the end rails, C D, secured thereto, the resilient slats F, secured at their ends in said grooves, and the spacing-blocks G, interposed between said slats at their ends, substantially as shown and described.
2. The combination, in a vehicle-seat, of the longitudinall -grooved front and back rails, A B, the end rails, O D, the guard-rail E, secured thereto, the resilient slats F, having their ends secured in the groove in the front and back rails by nails or otherwise, and the spacing-blocks G, interposed between the slats at their ends and secured in the grooves aforesaid in the manner and for the purpose substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof We afiix our signatures
