UNITED STATES PATENT FFICEL ELI EDVIN ARNOLD, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
BEDSTEAD ATTAC H M ENT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 427,533, dated May 13, 1890.
Application iiled December 23, 1889. Serial No. 334,687. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.:
Be it known that I, ELI EDWIN ARNOLD, of the city and county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Bedstead Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to bedstead attachments and it consists of certain improvements, which are fully set forth in the following specication, and shown in the accompanying drawings, which form a part thereof.
The object of my invention is to devise a convenient attachment for bedsteads for the purpose of simplifying the operation of spreading the covers or making the bed, and to conveniently subject the bed-covers to athorough airing and in such a manner that they need not be removed from the bed for that purpose.
In carrying out my invention I employ suitable devices for raising the covers from the mattress or body of the bed and separating them one from another, so as to leave spaces between the adjacent pieces for the circulation of air-currents. By manipulating these devices the covers may be dropped upon the mattress spread into the proper position.
Referring for greater particularity to the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of a bedstead having my improvement applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same on the line ai 0c of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of the attachment removed from the bedstead. Fig. 4 is a sectional side elevation of the same with the cords attached to the bed-covers; and Fig. 5 is an illustrati ve view ot the preferable manner of attaching the cords to the covers.
A is the bedstead, constructed in the ordi- 11Et1`y 111311111612 B is the mattress.
C are uprights carrying a series of rollers or guides c c, separated from each other a short distance. Preferably these uprights are formed of two pieces, either of metal or wood, having the rollers or guides c c arranged between them, as shown in the drawings. These uprights are removably attached to the bedstead A at the four corners, preferably by means ot' a plate D, having a socket d to receive thcend of the upright piece. This plate or socket-piece D may be screwed or otherwise attached to the bedstead at the corners. -I
prefer to arrange these uprights at an angle in the corners, so that the uprights in opposite corners have their guides or rollers c c pointing toward each other, as shown in the drawings.
E are the diiterent covers of the bed.
F are cords arranged over each of the guides or rollers c c of each upright C, having their inner ends attached to the corners of the bed-covers. This attachment is preferably accomplished in the manner shown in Fig. 5, the bed-covers E being provided with loops e near the four corners, and preferably on the under side and a short distance from the extreme corner, so as to be concealed 'f rom View, and the ends of the cords F being provided with hooks f, adapted to be connected with the loops e. Each one of the cords F ,passes over one ofthe rollers or guides c and is adapted to be attached to its appropriate bed-cover E, the cord from the upper roller or guide being attached to the top cover, and so on, as is shown in Fig. 4, and each cover being attached at its four corners to corresponding cords F of the four uprights C. These cords are of substantially the same length, (the lower ones being slack or loose,) so that when they are all pulled or drawn simultaneously the end of each cord will be drawn up to its particular roller or guide c, and these ends, being attached to the corners of the covers E, will draw each cover uplto a level with the rollers, separating them, as shown in Fig. 2. By arranging the uprights in the manner described, so that the rollers 0r guides c ot' Ithe uprights in opposite angles ot the bed face each other, the action of the cords F is diagonally across the cover and more effectively spreads or stretches the covers.
In order to convenient-1y operate the device, the cords F of each upright C are attached to a cord G, and these cords arebrought under the bed and are guided by suitable guides or rollers H at the corners.
attached together and guided by vsuitable guides or rollers I, so that they may be conveniently operated by a single cord or string LT. It will be seen that by pulling this string .I all ot the cords F will be siinultaneously operated, so that the covers E will be drawnv up and separated, as shown in Fig. 2. I-Byre- These cords Gr are leasing the cord J the covers may again be dropped into place. It desired, the cords F may be normally disconnected from the covers E, and only attached to them when it is desired to make and air the bed.
Obviously the uprights may be made adjustable or of any height desirable, and While I prefer to make them separate. and removable from the bed-frame it is apparent that they may, if desired, be made integral with the frame.
The mere details of construction which are here shown are preferable, but are not to be taken as limitations of the invention, as it is apparent that they maybe varied in many ways.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The combination, with a bedstcad-i'rame, of a series of guides supported thereby at each of the lour corners and arranged at dit ferent altitudes, and cords extending over each of said guides and adapted to be attached to the bed-covers, whereby said bedcovers may be raised from the mattress and separated.
2. The combination, with abcdstead-fra1ne, of a series of guides supported thereby at each of the four corners and arranged at diiferent altitudes, a series of cords of substantially equal length extending over said guides, adapted to be attached to the covers of the bed, and having their other ends united, and cords connected to the united ends of each of said series of cordsat each corner, whereby the bed-covers may be raised from the mattress and separated from one another.
rIhe combination, with a bcdstead-frame, ot aseries of guides supported thereby at each of the four corners and arranged at different altitudes, a series of cords of substantially equal length extending over said guides, adapted to be attached to the covers of the bed, and having' their other ends united, cords connected to the united ends of each of said series of cords at each corner, guides for said connecting-cord, and a connection between said four connecting-cords, whereby they may be operated in unison, whereby the bed-covers may be raised from the mattress and separated from one another.
4. The combination, with a series of super imposed articles-such as bed-covers-of up- .rights or supports at the four corners of said articles, a series of guides in each of said uprights at different altitudes, and cords passing over each of said guides and detachably connected to said articles, the cords from cor responding guides of each series being attached to the same article, whereby by operating said cords the articles may be raised and separated and spread in different planes.
5. The combination, with a series of superimposed articles-such as bed-coversof uprights or supports at the four corners of said articlcs,a series of guides in each of said uprights at different altitudes, cords passing over cach of said guides and detachably connected to said articles, the cords from corresponding guides of each series being attached to the same article, and a connection between the cords of each upright, whereby by operating said cords thc articles may be raised and separated and spread in different planes.
In testimony of which invention I have hereunto set my hand.
