EDI/TARD G. PURDY, OF MICHIGAN CITY, INDIANA.
H U NTERS PO RTABLE STOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 401,302, dated April 9, 1889.
Application led September 3, 1888. Serial No. 284,488. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that l, EDWARD G. PURDY, a citizen of the United States, residing in Michigan City, in the county of La Porte and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hunters Portable Stools, of which the following is a speciiication.
My invention relates to portable stools or chairs designed for the use of hunters.
The object of the invention is to provide a stool or chair of a simple and cheap construction and of a light and portable character, adapted to be planted in marshes or other soft places for convenience of hunters-for example, while waiting at stands for flights of birds.
To this end my invention consists in the novel construction of parts and devices, herein shown and described, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a device embodying my invention., and Fig. 2 is a central vertical longitudinal section.
In the drawings, A represents the scat of the chair or stool, consisting of a single piece of veneer-board bent into the desired shape and preferably of substantially the form shown in the drawings. This veneer-board seat is of the usual construction employed for chair-bottoms. It is, preferably, composed of about four thicknesses of thin veneer-board properly glued and pressed together with the grains of the wood crossing, as is customary in the manufacture of veneer-boards. The seat is preferably furnished with a back, A', integral with the seat.
B is a socket or base-plate, preferably of cast metal, and conforming in shape to the curve of the seat A. It is removably secured to the seat A by bolts b, having broad flat heads to it upon the seat A. These bolts b are provided with thumb-nuts b', so that the base-plate B may be readily removed from the seat A when desired. The plate B is further furnished with a hole or socket, b2, in which fits the standard C. The standard C is preferably made of gas-pipe or other metal tubing, and is provided with a sharp point, c,
adapted to enter the ground. The standard C is or may be threaded at its upper end, as indicated at c.
D is the su pporting-plate, preferably a circular disk of sheet metal having a hub, d, through which the standard C passes. The supporting-disk D may be adj usted and fixed in any desired position on the standard C by the set-screw d.
In using the apparatus the pointed standard C may be readily inserted into the ground to the depth of the disk D. The disk D, having a broad flat surface, will serve to sustain the Weight of the occupant of the chair and prevent the standard C from settling farther into the ground.
The seat A may, whenreinoved from the base-plate B and stan dard C, be used as a lazyback seatin the hunters boat.
My portable stool, while it is of a light, simple, and easily-portable construction, is also strong and durable and well adapted, by reason of the disk D, to support the weight of a man in very soft or marshy ground. It is a great convenience and comfort to the hunter, and also enables him to assume a much less exposed or prominent position than when standing. By adjusting the supporting-disk D so that the seat is only a short dlstance above the ground the hunters position will oe-K but little more exposed than if he were kneeling or crouching, and at the same time his body is protected from the wet or dampness of the ground, to which he would be exposed when kneeling or Crouching.
By reason of the disk D being circular and the standard C round, the whole structure may be readily swiveled or turned around in the ground, as may be necessary when shooting in diiferent directions, or the base plate B may turn on the standard C as a pivot.
l. The combination of seat A, with baseplate B, secured thereto, standard C, secured to said base-plate, and adjustable supporting-` disk D, having hub CZ and set-screw d', for securing the same in different positions to said standard C, substantially as specified.
2. The combination of veneer-board seat A, having integral back A, with base-plate B, threaded bolts b, passing through said seat and base-plate, and furnished with thumbnutb, for securing said base-plate to said seat, 5 standard C, secured at its upper end to said base-plate, and flat supporting-disk D, have ing hub d and set-screw d', said standard passing through said hub, and said hub being fixed in position on the standard by said set. screw, substantially as specified.
