MELBERT DUMAS, OF RIPON, WISCONSIN.
BEDSTEAD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 570,788, dated November 3, 1896.
Application filed February 15,1896. Serial No. 579,396. (No model.) I
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MELBERT DUMAS, of Ripon, in the county of Fond du Lac and State of lVisconsin, have invented new and useful Improvements in Bedsteads, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to bedsteads of the kind having cross bars or slats for supporting the bed-springs. Bedsteads as usually constructed are especially weak and liable to break at the point of connection between the side rails and cross-slats.
The object of my present invention-is to so construct the connection between the slats and side rails that it is practically impossible to break down under any usual superimposed weight.
The invention consists in the construction and novel arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter specified, and particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective View of a bedstead embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section showing a socket-strip as attached to a side rail, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a stirrup-hanger employed.
The bedstead comprises the usual head and foot boards A A and the side rails A Secured by screws or otherwise to the inner surface of each side rail is a metal socket-strip A which, at suitable points between its ends, is turned outward to form sockets a, open-at the top and bottom. To provide a stronger connection between the strip A and the side rail, I may provide the side rail with a longitudinal channel a, within which the body portion of the strip A willbe seated, as plainly indicated in Fig. 2.
A designates stirrup-shaped hangers, made of suitable metal and having at the upper end a hook portion a designed to removably engage in the sockets a. The lower end or stirrup portion of each hanger is somewhat widened, as at a This widened portion will not only serve as a wide bearing for the end of a cross-bar A but will, by its edge coming in contact with the surface of the side rail, prevent the stirrup from swinging or disengaging itself from the cross-bar.
WVhen the cross-bars are in position, as indicated in Fig. 1, the bed-springs may be placed thereon, and as a means to prevent movement of the springs relatively to the cross-bars I may employ a pair of double hooks a, extended in opposite directions and adapted to engage one hook portion with a cross-bar and the other hook portion with the springs.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent A bedstead, comprising side rails longitudinally channeled on their inner side, metal strips secured in said channels, the said strips being bent outward at intervals to form sockets open at the top and bottom, and stirruphangers having hook portions to engage in said sockets, substantially as specified.
