GEORGE W. DEARBORN, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
FAN ATTACHMENT FOR ROCKING-CHAIRS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 597,177, dated January 11, 1898.
Application filed June 18, 1897. Serial No. 641,805. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnonen W. DEARBORN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fan Attachments for Rocking-Chairs, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to fan attachments for rocking-chairs having a pivoted fan-carrier adapted to be oscillated as the ch air rocks by a pendulum or counterpoise.
The invention relates more particularly to the detail arrangement of the fan-handle holder, whereby a universal adj ustm ent thereof is obtained, and to the means for pivoting the fan-carrier to a single supportingstandard.
The invention also includes other details of construction, as will be hereinafter described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
The attachment is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of the attachment; Fig. 2, a rear view of the same. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view, and Fig. 3 a detail view of a modification.
In the present device I aim to utilize only a single standard (shown at a) provided with an inwardly-curved upper end and having its lower end adjustably held in the socketplate I)", which is permanently secured to the rear upper bar of the rocker.
A sleeve 0 is brazed or otherwise secured in the extreme upper end of the standard a and extends transversely-of the same on each side thereof. This provides a bearing for the journal d, which extends laterally from the intermediate portion of the arm 2, carrying a weight g at its lower end and having its upper portion curved inwardly and extended horizontally and carrying the fan handle holder, as will be hereinafter described. The journal at extends almost entirely through the sleeve 0 and has a threaded socket bored in its end, into which the shank of a bolt h screws, said bolt having a head which bears upon the end of the sleeve 0 and thus holds the journal in place. At the beginning of the horizontal part of the arm a a collar or flange i is located, against which one end of a spring Z, coiled around said arm, bears, the opposite end of said spring hearing against a sleeve Z, loose on the horizontal part of the arm and holding the same in frictional contact with a washer held to the extreme end of the arm by a screw 0. A boss is formed on one side of this sleeve, to which is pivoted one member of an L-shaped clip or elbow 'r, the other member having a plate 5 secured thereto.
There is sufficient frictional contact between the clipr and the boss in the sleeve to prevent the clip from moving accidentally when once set manually to apredetermined position.
The plate .9 forms the backing to receive the fan-handle, and the handle is clamped thereto by the springs u *0, the spring u having its lower end bent laterally and secured to the back of the plate near its lower end, the main part of said spring lying parallel with the edge of said plate and the upper portion being free and looped so as to extend across the front of the plate. The spring o corresponds to the spring to, its lateral end, however, being secured to the upper part of the plate. The fan-handle is inserted between the loops and the plate and is thus secure] y held in place.
It will be apparent from the foregoing description that the fan may, while held in place, be adjusted to any position around the horizontal extension of the arm by turning the sleeve 1 thereon, or said fan may be adjusted in a plane parallel with said arm on the pivot of the clip r. The sleeve Z and spring may be dispensed with and the clip 7' be secured directly to the arm, and a second clip carrying the plate 3, corresponding to the first, may be pivoted to the outer member of said first clip. The springs to and '0 may also be dispensed with and in place of the same a springloop having its ends fixed to the opposite edges of the plate L maybe provided. To the center of this loop, which extends across the plate L, a plate Z is secured, this latter plate corresponding in contour to the plate L; but
it is preferably of less length than the same. The handle of the fan is adapted to be held between the opposing faces of the two plates.
I claim-- IOO 1. In combination, the standard, the arm pivotall y secured thereto, having a horizontal portion, the weight fixed to the lower end of said arm, the sleeve on the horizontal portion of the arm with frictional means for holding the same, an elbow having one member pivsleeve to hold the sleeve in frictional contact with the washer, the elbow having one, end pivoted to the sleeve, the plate pivoted to the 7 other member, and the spring clamping-loop secured to said plate. i
3. In combination, the socket-plate secured to the chair-back, the standard adjustable therein and having its upper end inwardly curved the arm having a weighted lower end cured in the extreme curved end of the stand-.
ard and projecting laterally on opposite sides thereof and forming a bearing for said journal, means for retaining the journal in the sleeve, the collar on the arm located at the beginning of the horizontal extension, a Washer held to the extreme end of the arm, a sleeve on said arm between the collar and washer, a coiled spring interposed between the collar and the sleeve for holding the latter into frictional contact With the washer and the fan-handle holder pivotally secured to said sleeve, said holder having looped spring-retainers.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE r DEARBORN.
