PATENT OFFICE.
IMPROVEMENT IN swiNGs.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 5,330, dated .October 16, 1847. i
valids'and others; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact descrip tion of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexedv drawings, making part of this specification,
and which represent a perspective view of said invention. i
A square horizontal frameA A A, eightfeet long and four feet wide, consists of four sills,
secured to each other at the angles byscrews or tenons, and upon the two side sills thereof are erected two posts B B, supported with braces C C O G and connected to eachother at theI top by a cap or cross-head D and a cross-beam E, the latter4 being a little below the former. (One or both of these posts may be supported by a side beam parallel to the side sills,but at some distance above andsupported by the braces, the foot of the post resting on the side beam instead of the sill.) From this cross-beam two hangers lF F de scend about four inches, and to these are connected by pivots or hinge-joints two pendulons arms G G, which are connected to each other by a -cross-bar H, and immediately below the cross-bar each of these arms becomes divided into (or united to) two branches, which descend to aswing-car I and are attached about sixteen feet long is attached horizontally to two of the pendulous branches about four feet above the swing-car, and the two ends of the rod are bent semicircularly and attached to theother two branches, as shown at K and L, orv the two ends of this bent rod may extend so as to meet and be attached to each other. Two cylindrical rollers M N ex-' the use of the person or persons who may oc'-` cupy the seats facing the respective rollers and who, by gently pulling the cord, may give a forward motion to the car. These rollers being about three feet long serve to conduct the cord so as to accommodate the person holding the same, whether such person sits on the right or left end of the seat, and by giving the ycord, a nearly horizontal direction renders the requisite exertion more convenient and agreeable to the person exercising. I do not claim the construction of the frame,
pendulous arms, branches, nor swing-car, they having been in use many years; but
I- do claim as original and desire to secure f v by Letters PatentvvThe combination of the bent rod and cylindrical rollers with the swing-frame, car, and
cords, as herein described.
