  • This invention has for its object the production of a seat or cushion adapted for use in connection with furniture, chairs, &c., where spring or upholstered seats are employed, and it is an improvement upon the class of seats or cushions described in United States Letters Patent No. 527,633, granted to me October 16, 1894, and reissued to the American Metallic Cushion Company October 15, 1895, and numbered 11,508.
  • the seat or cushion hereinafter described is adapted for chair and furniture seats in place of the ordinary coiled springs, as my improved seat or cushion presents an edge which, when covered, forms a yielding edge above the usual side putting.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view showing one set of main and auxiliary spring-wires used in my improved seat or cushion and the supports for said wires, and showing a springlink extending between and connected to the upper supports.
  • Fig. 2 is a plan View taken at one end of the seat or cushion.
  • Fig. 3 is a detail plan viewtaken at the center of the seat or cushion, and showing the main springwires and supports and an additional wire coil located on the bottom supporting-rod for a purpose to be hereinafter explained, certain other parts being omitted in order to clearly show the additional Wire coil.
  • Fig. 4c is a perspective View of one of the upper springlinks,which extends between and is connected to the upper supports.
  • Fig. 5 is a detail view showing two opposite main spring wires.
  • Fig. 6 is a detail view showing two opposite auxiliary spring-wires.
  • Fig. 7 is a detail view showing one of the coiled-spring supports.
  • Fig. 8 is a modification of the springlink shown in Fig. 1-.
  • My improved seat or cushion is composed of a series of maing spring-wires A, having preferably three branches A A A the free end of the arm A being bent to form an eye A, while the wire at the junction of the arms A and A is coiled in the form of springs A and the wire at the junction of the arms A and A is coiled in the form of springs A
  • the auxiliary springs B are composed of two arms B and E the free extremity of the arm B being bent to form an eye B and the free extremity of the arm B being bent to form an eye B while the wire at the junction of.
  • the arms B and B is coiled in the form of springs B
  • the lower coils A of the main springs A and the lower eyes B of the auxiliary springs B are entered by a rigid rod or bar C, resting upon a board C, which forms a part of the framework of the seat or cushion.
  • the coils A of the main springs A are entered on each side by the flexible supports D, consisting of coiled-wire springs, and the upper opposite eyes A and B of the main and auxiliary springs A and B are not entered by one support, as the lower springs A and B but are entered independently by flexible supports E, consisting of coiled-wire springs, (see Fig. 1,) and said supports E enter the separated coils F of the spring-links F, each of which extends between and is connected to the said support-sE by the separated coils F, as shown and described.
  • the open orseparated coils F when weight is applied to the seat or cushion, open and bear against the eyes A and B of the main and auxiliary springs A and B, and hold the same tight, and said coils also, in the operation of the seat or cushion, prevent any noise of the wires when weight is applied to the said seat or cushion.
  • Vhen weight is applied to the said seat or cushion, the coiled supports E lengthen and would leave a space between the upper eyes of the springs if it were not for the said open coils F, which, however, as the supports E lengthen, open and fill up the increase of space and thus hold the upper eyes of the springs in their proper positions, and when the weight is removed the said coils move together as the supports E move up to their normal position.
  • the auxiliary springs B keep the center of the cushion in place, and when weight is removed assist in raising the seat or cushion up to its normal position.
  • the coiled supports E may, if desired, be wrapped with paper E before being inserted in the coils and eyes of the main and auxiliary springs, so as to prevent any noise, owing to the movement of the eyes and coiled springs on the coiledspring supports, and there may also, if desired, be inserted within the coiled supports E or D a thin rod E for the purpose of giving stiifness to the said supports.
  • screws G For the purpose of holding the springwires upon the flexible supports D and E, I have provided screws G, one for each coiled support, and a washer G on said screw, which bears against the ends of the coiled supports D and E and holds the coils A and upper eyes A of the main springs A in place upon the insertion of the said screws into the interior of the said coiled-spring supports.
  • the lower rigid supporting-rod O rests upon the board 0, forming a part of the frame, and on the end of said rod there is screwed a nut G which bears against the lower coils A of the main springs A and holds the same in proper place.
  • Fig. 8 I have shown a modification of the spring-link, and in the view shown there is simply one turn of the wire to form a single coil, which, however, operates exactly as the coil shown in Fig. 4.
  • the seat or cushion may be covered with upholstery and with a proper amount of hair or other wadding, and the portions of the seat represented by the coils and coiledspring supports D may be spanned by a strip of flexible material commonly known in upholstery as the puffing at the front of the seat, and the coils A when covered, provide a round flexible edge for the seat or cushion.
  • the coiled supporting-springs D and E and the rod 0 constitute a supportingframe for the seat or cushion.
  • a series of springwires provided with a coil between the ends thereof to form the edge thereof, a supportfor said spring-wires located in said coils.

Be it known that I, WILLIAM VoGLnR, of Somervillc, county of Middlesex, and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Seats or Cushions; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention has for its object the production of a seat or cushion adapted for use in connection with furniture, chairs, &c., where spring or upholstered seats are employed, and it is an improvement upon the class of seats or cushions described in United States Letters Patent No. 527,633, granted to me October 16, 1894, and reissued to the American Metallic Cushion Company October 15, 1895, and numbered 11,508.
In the present invention I have made all the supports for the spring-wires, excepting the rigid supporting-rod used at the base, of yielding or flexible material, such as coiled wire springs, and I have made other improve ments, which will be hereinafter fully described.
The seat or cushion hereinafter described is adapted for chair and furniture seats in place of the ordinary coiled springs, as my improved seat or cushion presents an edge which, when covered, forms a yielding edge above the usual side putting.
In the accompanying drawings,which illustrate a construction embodying my invention, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing one set of main and auxiliary spring-wires used in my improved seat or cushion and the supports for said wires, and showing a springlink extending between and connected to the upper supports. Fig. 2 isa plan View taken at one end of the seat or cushion. Fig. 3 is a detail plan viewtaken at the center of the seat or cushion, and showing the main springwires and supports and an additional wire coil located on the bottom supporting-rod for a purpose to be hereinafter explained, certain other parts being omitted in order to clearly show the additional Wire coil. Fig. 4c is a perspective View of one of the upper springlinks,which extends between and is connected to the upper supports. Fig. 5 is a detail view showing two opposite main spring wires.
Fig. 6 is a detail view showing two opposite auxiliary spring-wires. Fig. 7 is a detail view showing one of the coiled-spring supports. Fig. 8 isa modification of the springlink shown in Fig. 1-.
Like letters of reference refer to like parts throughout the several views.
My improved seat or cushion is composed of a series of maing spring-wires A, having preferably three branches A A A the free end of the arm A being bent to form an eye A, while the wire at the junction of the arms A and A is coiled in the form of springs A and the wire at the junction of the arms A and A is coiled in the form of springs A The auxiliary springs B are composed of two arms B and E the free extremity of the arm B being bent to form an eye B and the free extremity of the arm B being bent to form an eye B while the wire at the junction of. the arms B and B is coiled in the form of springs B The lower coils A of the main springs A and the lower eyes B of the auxiliary springs B are entered by a rigid rod or bar C, resting upon a board C, which forms a part of the framework of the seat or cushion.
The coils A of the main springs A are entered on each side by the flexible supports D, consisting of coiled-wire springs, and the upper opposite eyes A and B of the main and auxiliary springs A and B are not entered by one support, as the lower springs A and B but are entered independently by flexible supports E, consisting of coiled-wire springs, (see Fig. 1,) and said supports E enter the separated coils F of the spring-links F, each of which extends between and is connected to the said support-sE by the separated coils F, as shown and described.
The open orseparated coils F, when weight is applied to the seat or cushion, open and bear against the eyes A and B of the main and auxiliary springs A and B, and hold the same tight, and said coils also, in the operation of the seat or cushion, prevent any noise of the wires when weight is applied to the said seat or cushion.
Vhen weight is applied to the said seat or cushion, the coiled supports E lengthen and would leave a space between the upper eyes of the springs if it were not for the said open coils F, which, however, as the supports E lengthen, open and fill up the increase of space and thus hold the upper eyes of the springs in their proper positions, and when the weight is removed the said coils move together as the supports E move up to their normal position.
The auxiliary springs B keep the center of the cushion in place, and when weight is removed assist in raising the seat or cushion up to its normal position.
As shown in Fig. 7, the coiled supports E may, if desired, be wrapped with paper E before being inserted in the coils and eyes of the main and auxiliary springs, so as to prevent any noise, owing to the movement of the eyes and coiled springs on the coiledspring supports, and there may also, if desired, be inserted within the coiled supports E or D a thin rod E for the purpose of giving stiifness to the said supports.
For the purpose of holding the springwires upon the flexible supports D and E, I have provided screws G, one for each coiled support, and a washer G on said screw, which bears against the ends of the coiled supports D and E and holds the coils A and upper eyes A of the main springs A in place upon the insertion of the said screws into the interior of the said coiled-spring supports.
The lower rigid supporting-rod O rests upon the board 0, forming a part of the frame, and on the end of said rod there is screwed a nut G which bears against the lower coils A of the main springs A and holds the same in proper place.
In Fig. 8 I have shown a modification of the spring-link, and in the view shown there is simply one turn of the wire to form a single coil, which, however, operates exactly as the coil shown in Fig. 4.
As shown in Fig. 3, I have arranged on the rigid rod 0 near the center of the cushion an independent wire coil H, which bears against the lower coils A and spreads out the same with the arms A of the main springs A. From this it results that when weight is applied to the seat or cushion the top of the same, on both sides of the independent wire coil II, cants toward the center, so that each spring is moved toward the center, and consequently there is not produced the lengthwise or side movement to the seat or cushion which would result if this means were not provided for causing the top of the seat or cushion on both sides above the independent coil II to cant toward the center of the seat or cushion- By thus spacing the bottom, the springs at the top are thrown toward the center, so that when weight is applied there is no endwise or sidewise motion, but the cant of the springs on both sides of the spacing device II is toward that point.
In the use of my improved seat or cushion the portions of the seat indicated by the coils A, eyes If, and ends A have a firm support on the board C of the frame, and when weight is applied to the top of the seat or cushion it will depress the same, and the top of the seat. composed chiefly of the arms A and springlinks F, mounted on the coiled-wirespri11g supports E, and also the auxiliary springs ll. in the center of the seat or cushion, yield under the weight upon said seat or cushion, and at the same time the coiled-spring supports D and E yield more or less or bend to cou form to the weight, and thus provide a strong and flexible seat.
The seat or cushion may be covered with upholstery and with a proper amount of hair or other wadding, and the portions of the seat represented by the coils and coiledspring supports D may be spanned by a strip of flexible material commonly known in upholstery as the puffing at the front of the seat, and the coils A when covered, provide a round flexible edge for the seat or cushion.
From the above description it will be evident that the coiled supporting-springs D and E and the rod 0 constitute a supportingframe for the seat or cushion.
I do not limit myself to the arrangement and construction shown, as the same may be varied without departing from the spirit or my invention.
Having thus ascertained the nature of my invention and set forth a construction embodying the same, what I claim as new,and de sire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
