STORM-APRON CASE FOR VEHICLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 584,995, dated June 22, 1897.
Application 'filed March 17, 1897. $erial No. 627,989. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM FETZER, of Sheldon, in the county of OBrien and State of Iowa, have invented a new and Improved Toe-Rest and Case for Storm-Aprons,of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to a novel attachment for the front end of a vehicle-body to ole-body in part and of the improvement in folded condition containing a folded stormapron; and Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1, but showing the storm-apron extended for *service.
In theillustration of my invention, 10 indicates the forward portion of a vehicle-body, of which 10 is the front wall.
11 represents a storm-apron, of the usual or any approved material, which may be readily folded into a compact package for stowage at the inner side of the front wall 10 as shown in Fig. 1.
The improvements essentially comprise the provision of a pliable casing 12, that is preferably formed of suitable carpet material or edge of the casing 12 is secured upon a transverse strip 18, affixed on said floor at a proper distance from the front wall 1O of the body 10. This strip 13 is adapted to serve as a rest for the heel as well as a means of attachment for the casing.
A suitable number of short straps 14 are secured at spaced intervals on or near the upper edge of the transverse wall 10 so as to depend in the body, and on the free ends of said pendent straps buckles 15 are secured. A complementary number of longer straps 16 are secured at their lower ends upon the strip 13 or floor of the body 10 at such inter vals apart as will adapt them when upwardly extended to respectively engage with the buckles 15 on the straps 1 1.
It will be seen that when the apron 11 is folded, as indicated in Fig. 1, the casing 12 may be evenly imposed thereon to cover the same by upwardly folding said casing, and then the sets of straps 14 16 may be buckled together, thereby securing the casing in place over the folded apron, as shown clearly in Fig. 1.
The protrusion of the casing when covering the apron 11 and the slightly-yielding packing it provides therefor adapts the filled casing to become a cushion upon which the feet of the occupant of the vehicle may be rested.
The casing may be allowed to rest upon the floor of the vehicle-body when the stormapron 11 is in service, and thus serve as a bootrug.
Having thus described my invention, I claim'as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination with a vehicle-body, of the storm-apron having one edge attached to the upper edge of the front wall of the body and arranged to be folded up against such front wall, a strip 13 secured to the bottom of the body and immediately in the rear of the apron folded, said strip forming with the front wall a compartment to receive said folded apron and a heel-rest, a pliable casing of fibrousmaterial having one edge secured to said strip and forming a cover for the folded apron or a rug when the apron is in use, and spaced straps and buckles secured to the said front wall and strip 13 and by which the casing is held in place over the folded apron, asand for the purpose set forth.
WILLIAM FETZER.
