Description

HAD
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
PLATT O. INGERSOLL, OF GREEN POINT, NEW YORK.
BED-BOTTOM.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, PLA'rT C. INGERsoLL, ot` Green Point, Kings county, New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bed-slats, of which the following is a full, and clear description thereof', reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to such a combination ot Wood and metal as shall give a cheap and elastic bed-slat.
Figure l represents a perspective view of a bedstead in which are my improved slats. Fig. 2 is a side elevation ot' my improved slat. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of part ot my iinproved slat in a modified form.
A represents an ordinary bedstead.
B is the ordinary bed-slat, having near each end, secured to its upper surface, the standards a, over which pass, tightly stretched,thc metal strips b, which, at'ter passing over the end of slat B, are secured to the under side of the slat at C. In the modified form the strips pass through slots O some distance back from the ends ofthe slat.
My improved elastic or spring slat is designed to take the place of the ordinary and more expensive spring slat or mattress. The simplicity of its construction and its durability are in strong contrast with all other devices for a similar purpose.
For an ordinary bedstead .having Wooden slats the standards a may be of the same material secured about tive inches from each end of the slat. The height of the standard depends upon the size Vot' the bedstead. Over the standards pass two thin metal strips, which are tightly stretched over the ends ot' the slat and secured to the under side, as shown in Fig. 2.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 3 the strips pass through slots on each side of the end, at any desirable distance from the ends of the slat, and secured upon the under side. The object in giving this eXtra length to the slat is to permit the use of the slat in a bedstead shorter than expected, in which case the ends ot the slat may be cut oft.
The principle ofthe spring is shown in Fig. 2. When the spring is Weighted between the standards the standards bear down upon the slat, depressing it in the center. It is not likely that the spring will meet the slat when it is properly constructed, since, as the weight upon the spring is increased, the standards press down the slat proportionately, and when the weight is removed the spring ot' the slat brings the metal strip again to its proper tension, thus giving a level and uniform surface for the bedding.
Having fully described my improved slat for bedsteads and its operation, I make the fol-- lowing claim:
Slat B, standards a, and metallic strips b, as shown, and for the purpose set forth.
