HENRY LEOVY, OF NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA.
CAM P-STOOL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 546,895, dated September 24, 1895. Application filed April 26, 1893. Renewed February 18,1895. Serial No. 538,873- (llo model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HENRY LEOVY, of New Orleans, in the parish of Orleans and-State of Louisiana, have invented a new and Improved Camp-Stool, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to folding chairs and like furniture; and its object is to provide a new and improved camp-stool which is simple and durable in construction and readily folded up for conveniently carrying it about in the form of a cane.
The invention consists of a center piece adapted to receive the ends of two sets of rods, of which the lower set forms the legs of a stool and the upper set is adapted to support the stool.
The invention also consists of certain parts and details and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter, and then pointed out in the claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forininga part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the improvement as extended. Fig. 2 is a like view of the same as folded and arranged as a cane. Fig; 3 is an enlarged sectional side elevation of the center piece and the ends of the rods connected therewith. Fig. at is an enlarged side elevation of one of the rods. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the same. Fig. 6 is asectional side elevation of the cane-head and part of the folded seat-supporting rods, and Fig. 7 is a like view of the cane-ferrule and parts of the leg-rods.
The improved camp-stool is provided with a chambered center piece A, adapted to support at its top plate A the lower ends of a set of rods B, adapted to support the seat 0, made of canvas or other suitable material, as is plainly illustrated in Fig. 1. The bottom plate A of the center piece A is adapted to receive the upper ends of the second set of rods D, adapted to form the legs for the stool when spread apart, as shown in Fig. 1. The two sets of rods B and D when folded up form circular rods, as is plainly shown in Fig. 2, so as to form a cane.
In order to connect the lower ends of the rods B with the top plate A, I provide each of the said rods B with a flat shank E, adapted to pass into a slot arranged radially in the top plate A, the lower end of the shank terminating in a head F, adapted to abut against the under side of the top plate A when the rod is swung outward, as illustrated in Fig. 3. For this purpose the upper end of the head F is inclined, so that when the rod is in an inclined position the inclined edge extends horizontally and flat against the under side of the plate A. The lower rods D are likewise provided at their upper ends with flat shanks E and heads F, similar in construction and arrangement to the shanks E and heads F, the only difference being that the said shanks E and heads F engage the bot tom slotted plate A of the center piece A.
In manufacturing the stool the shanks of the rods and legs are inserted inthe widened slots of the center piece, and the slots are then closed by compression to the required degree.
The upper end of each of the rods B is formed with a flange B and a threaded extension B adapted to support a loop 0', formed on the canvas seat 0 to support the latter between the three rods B when extended, as illustrated in Fig. 1. When the upper rods B are closed or folded up to form a circular rod, as previously described and shown in Fig. 2, then the folded extensions B form a continuously-threaded extension adapted to be engaged by a thread G of a hollow cane-head G, of any desired shape. When this cane-head G is screwed on the threaded extension 13*, then the rods B are locked in a folded position. (See Fig. 2.) The lower ends of the leg-rods D are likewise provided with threaded extensions D, adapted to be engaged when the rods are folded by a threaded ferrule H, as is plainly illustrated in Figs. 2 and 7, so that the lower rods D are locked in a folded position by the said ferrule. When the latter and the cane-head G are screwed in position, the device is ar ranged as a cane.
The upper rods B are preferably made hollow or grooved, so as to form a receptacle when the rods are closed for storing the canvas seat 0. The latter may also be stored in the hollow head G.
It will be seen that by the construction of the rods B and D they are permanently connected with the center piece A, so that the shanks fitting in said slots, and enlarged 10 several parts are always united, whether exheads having inclined inner shoulders which tended or folded up. engage the inner sides of the ends of said cen- Having thus fully described my invention, ter piece, as shown and described, for the pur- 5 I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters pose specified.
