COMBINED CHAIR AND BEDSTEAD.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Iatent No. 603,896, dated May 10, 1898.
Application filed December 28,1897. Serial No. 663,963. (No model.) Patented in England July 9, 1896, No. 15,205, and September 9,189'7,N0. 20,750.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOSEPH DIXON, a citizen of the United States, residing in Streatham, London, county of Surrey, England, have invented a new and Improved Combined Folding Chair and Bedstead, (for which I have obtained Letters Patent in Great Britain, No. 15,205, dated July 9, 1896, and No. 20,750, dated September 9, 1897,) of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of the invention is to provide a new and improved combined folding chair and bedstead adapted to be conveniently folded into a comparatively small space for transportation or storing purposes and arranged for extension to be used as an ordinary sitting-chair, or as a reclining-chair with a legrest, or as a bedstead. a
The invention consists of novel features and parts and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter and pointed out in the claims.
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 figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improvement as folded up. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the improvement as extended and arranged as an ordinary sitting-chair. Fig. 8 is a similar view of the same with the le rest extended. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the improvement extended for use as a bedstead. Fig. 5 is an enlarged perspective view of the detached parts forming a fastening device for the seat-frame legs. Fig. 6 is a like View of the detached parts forming the fastening device for the extension bracelegs and back-frame, and Fig. 7 is a perspective View of a modified form of the improvement.
The improved piece of knockdown furniture is provided with a seat-frame A, on the sides of which are pivoted the front and rear legs B and 13, adapted to be folded on the inside of the sides when the device is not in use, as indicated in Fig. 1. The front and rear legs B and B are adapted to be fastened in an extended position by a fastening device 0, consisting of a catch 0, pivoted on the corresponding leg and adapted to engage a keeper C fastened to the under side of the adjacent cross-piece of the seat-frame A, the catch being locked in place after engaging the said keeper by a latch 0 likewise pivdied to the cross-piece of the seat-frame. (See Figs. 2 and 5.)
On the side pieces forming the seat-frame A and near the top thereof are arranged longitudinally-extending guideways for a slidable foot-rest D, made in the shape of a rectangular frame, as plainly indicated in Figs. 3 and 4., and provided at its outer end with pivoted legs D for supporting the outer end of the foot-rest on the floor. To the rear ends of the side pieces for theseat-frame A are pivoted the side bars E of a back-frame I E, provided with a cross-piece E for uniting the side bars with each other at their free ends, as is plainly indicated in the drawings.
On the side bars E are pivoted braces F, connected with each other by a cross-piece F, and on the lower ends of the said braces and at the inside thereof are pivoted extension legs G, connected with each other bya crosspiece G, the upper ends of the said legs being adapted to fit into notches or recesses E formed on the under side of the said side bars E of the back-frame E, when the latter is in an extended position, as indicated in Fig. 4. On the extension-legs G are pivoted hooks H, adapted to hook upon a cross-bar F of the braces F, so as to securely lock the legs in place on the braces, thereby forming extension-legs for the same. (See Fig. 2.)
In order to fasten 'the legs G securely in place on the side bars E of the back-frame E, I provide the device I, (shown in detail in Fig. 6,) consisting of a plate I, fastened to the legs near the upper ends thereof, with a notch I in the plate to be engaged by a lug 1 formed on a plate I secured to the corresponding side bar E. A latch I is pivoted on the plate I and is provided with a head 1 adapted to be engaged by a hook I on the said plate to lock the lug 1 in position in the notch 1 Now it will be seen that by the arrangement described the device can be readily folded up, as shown in Fig. 1, or set up as an ordinary sitting-chair, as indicated in Fig. 2, the braces F and legs G holding the backframe E in an inclined position relatively to the seat-frame A. If desired, the leg-rest D can be extended, as shown in Fig. 3, and when it is desired to form a camp-bedstead the back-frame E is swung down into a horizontal position to extend from the seat-frame A in an opposite direction to that of the legrest D. The legs G are fastened in place on the side bars E of the back-frame E to support the outer end thereof properly in a horizontal position. It will be seen that by the arrangement described a bedstead of a suitable length is produced.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 7 I dispense with the lockin g devices 0 for the front and rear legs 13 and B of the seat-frame A and substitute in place thereof pins J, held slidably in the sides of the seat-frame, to limit the swinging motion of the said legs when extended, as will be readily understood by reference to Fig. 7. The leg-rest D is the same as the one previously described but the back-frame E is provided with a bucklestrap K for connecting the side bars E with each other to strengthen the same, especially when the device is used as a bedstead. The braces F carry the legs G and are prevented from slipping when extended a considerable degree by means of a cord L, one end of which is fastened to the corresponding side member E of the back-frame, and the other end is looped over a head N, so as to be unfastened when necessary and looped over a head N, formed on the corresponding brace F to prevent the latter from slipping.
In order to fasten the extension-legs G2 to the braces F I provide pins 0, held movably in the lower ends of said braces, to engage the legs and fasten them together in the same direction. When the pins 0 are removed, the legs G2 can be swung at an angle to the braces to engage the side bars E of the back-frame E When the device is used as a bedstead, as previously explained, arm-rests P are pivotally connected with the side bars E of the back-frame and also with links P, pivoted to the side bars of the seat-frame A.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A combined folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a back pivoted to the said seat-frame, and a brace pivoted on the said back, and provided with pivoted legs adapted to form extension-legs for the said brace, and legs for the said back when the latter is in an extended position for a bedstead, substantially as shown and described.
2. A combination folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a legrest slidable thereon, and provided with separate legs, a back-frame pivoted on the said seat-frame, and adapted to form a bed extension therefor in an opposite direction to the said slidable leg-rest, a brace pivoted on the said back-frame, and adapted to fold thereon to support the frame, and extension-legs pivoted on the said brace, and adapted to engage the said back-frame, substantially as shown and described.
3. A combination folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a legrest slidable thereon, and provided with separate legs, a back-frame pivoted on the said seat-frame, and adapted to form a bed extension therefor in an opposite direction to the said slidable leg-rest, a brace pivoted on the said back-frame, extension-legs pivoted on the said brace, and adaptedto engage the said back-frame, and means for locking the said brace in place on the said back-frame, substantially as shown and described.
4. A combination folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a legrest slidable thereon, and provided with separate legs, a back-frame pivoted on the said seat-frame, and adapted to form a bed extension therefor in an opposite direction to the said slidable leg-rest, a brace pivoted on the said back-frame, and adapted to fold thereon to support the frame, extension-legs pivoted on the said brace, and adapted to engage the said back-frame, and means for locking the said leg in place on the brace, substantially as shown and described.
5. A combination folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a legrest slidable thereon, and provided with separate legs, a back-frame pivoted on the said seat-frame, and adapted to form a bed extension therefor in an opposite direction to the said slidable leg-rest, a brace pivoted on the said back-frame, and adapted to fold thereon to support the frame, extension-legs pivoted on the said brace, and adapted to engage the said back-frame, and means for locking the said brace-leg in place at its fulcrum end on the said back-frame, substantially as shown and described.
6. A combination folding chair and bedstead, comprising a legged seat-frame, a legrest slidable thereon, and provided with separate legs, a back-frame pivoted on the said seat-frame, and adapted to form a bed extension therefor in an opposite direction to the said slidable leg-rest, a brace pivoted on the said back-frame, and adapted to fold thereon to support the frame, extension-legs pivoted on the said brace, and adapted to engage the said back-frame, and pivoted side arms connecting the said seat-frame with the said back-frame, substantially as shown and described.
