VILLIAM H. SlVIFT, OF BRUNSlVICK, GEORGIA, ASSIGNOR TO CHARLES \V.
SW'IFT, OF SAME PLACE.
FAN ATTACHMENT FOR CHAIRS, CRIBS, 80C.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 468,090, dated February 2, 1892.
Application filed November 2, 1891. $erial No. 410,648. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM H. SWIFT, of Brunswick, in the county of Glynn and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fan Attachments for Rocking-Chairs, Cribs, &c., of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object to provide simple and efitective means for vibrating a fan in suitable proximity to a rocking-chair ora childs crib or other article of furniture adapted to rock or oscillate on a fixed base by the movement of the rocking part; and to this end it consists in the improvements which I will now proceed to describe and claim.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a base-rocking chair provided with my improvements. Fig. 2 represents a front elevation of the upper portion of the chair-back and the fan supported thereby. Fig. 3 represents a side elevation, and Fig. 4 an end elevation, of a base-rocker crib provided with myimprovements. Fig. 5 represents a modification of the fan shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
The same letters of reference indicate the same parts in all the figures.
Referring first to Figs. 1 and 2, a repre sents the base, and b the rocking portion, of a chair of the well'known base-rocker type, the base resting on the floor and having no rocking motion while the chair rocks upon the base.
0 0 represent standards projecting upwardly from the upper end of the back of the chair, said standards having bearings in which is mounted a rock-shaft d, adapted to oscillate in said bearings, and provided with a socket or holder (1, adapted to receive the handle d of the fan (1 which may be of any suitable form, or, if preferred, may bea fly-brush e, as shown in Fig. 5.
To one end of the shaft (Z is affixed a pinion f, which meshes with a rack-segment .9, formed on a lever g, which is pivoted at g to an arm or bracket 0', afiixed to one of the standards 0.
7L represents an arm affixed to the base a and projecting horizontally therefrom. The
outer end of the arm h is connected by a rod twith one end of the lever 9. hen the chair is rocked, the connection of the lever g,
which oscillates with the chair, with the arm 7b, which does not oscillate, causes the lever to oscillate vertically on its pivot 9 and thus, through the segment g and pinionf, impart a rocking motion to the shaft (1, the fanbeing thus oscillated across the upper end of the chair-back.
Referring to Figs. 3 and 4, the standards 0 c, supporting the fan-carryin g shaft (Z, are attached to the end pieces 0 o of the frame of a rocking crib, and the arm h is attached to the non-rocking supporting-frame p, on which the body of the crib rocks. The operation of the attachment is in this case the same as in the case of the chair above described, the fixed arm 7L being connected by a rod *5 with the lever which is pivoted at g to an arm 0 formed 011 one of the standards 0, the lever g having a racksegment g meshing with a pinionf on the fan-shaft cl.
It will be seen thattheabove-described construction provides a simple and inexpensive means for automatically moving a fan or flybrush over the occupant of the rocking-chair, crib, or other like article of furniture.
The construction of the parts is simple and not liable to be easily deranged.
I have shown the base a of the rockingchair provided with a curved or crowning seat a for the rocker of the chair, the object of said crowning seat being to compensate for the resistance to the movement of the chair caused by the fan and its operating mechanism.
I claim- The combination, with a rocking-chair or other like article comprising a non-rocking base and a structure adapted to rock thereon, of a fan-carrying rock-shaft journaled in bearings on the rocking structure and provided with a pinion, a lever pivoted to an arm on the rocking structure and provided witha raclcsegment meshing with said pinion, and a connection between the said lever and the non-rocking base, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, this 27th day of October, A. I). 1891.
VILLIAM ll. SlVIFT.
