GEORG FISCHER, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
CHILDS CARRIAGE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 623,308, dated April 18, 1899.
Application filed August 13, 1398.
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORG FISCHER, of Boston, in the countyof Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Childrens Carriages, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object to provide a childs carriage the body of which is divided transversely into a head-section and a footsection, the foot-section being hinged to the head-section and adapted to be yieldingly supported. either in a raised position to serve as a horizontal continuation of the head section or in a depressed position to enable the child to be conveniently placed in the carriage and removed, or to serve as a foot-rest when the occupant of the carriage is in a sitting position.
The invention consists in the improvements which I will now proceed to describe and claim.
Of the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my improved carriage, showing the foot-section raised. Fig. 2 represents a similar view showing the foot-section depressed. Fig. 3 isa perspective view showing the adjustable spring which supports the foot-section and the meansfor adj ustably securing the same. Fig. irepresentsasection showing guides for the supplemental back.
The same letters of reference indicate the same parts in all the figures.
In the drawings, a a represent the axles on which the wheels a a are mounted, and a represent the usual reach-bars, which are secured to and extend between the axles, said axles and bars constituting the usual supportingfranie of the carriage, which is provided with the usual handles a The body of the carriage is transversely divided at I) and coinprises a head-section b and a foot-section b said sections being connected by hinges 71 which are adapted to permit the foot-section to be depressed, as shown in Fig. 2.
c 0 represent springs which yieldingly support the head-section b, said springs being suitably attached to the supporting-frame at their lower ends.
(Z represents an adjustable spring which yieldingly supports the foot-section 11 The adjustable spring (Z is movable in a guide d,
Serial No. 688,471. (No model.)
shown a pin cl inserted in an orifice in the a lower portion of the spring d and bearing against one side of the guide 61, said pin preventing the weight of the foot-section from pushing the spring through the guide. It is obvious, however, that any other suitable device may be used for this purpose, such as a set-screw engaged with the. guide and arranged to bear upon the portion of the spring that is within the guide. VVhen-the pin 62 is removed, the foot-section b is free to swing downwardly to the position shown in Fig. 2, the spring cZ sliding through the guide until the foot-section is depressed. The spring (1 is made sufficient-1y flexible or resilient to enable it to afford a yielding support to the footsection when the latter is raised. The adj ustable spring cl has a sliding connection at its upper end with the foot-section Z), so that when the foot-section is depressed, as shown in Fig. 2, it can move up and down independently of the spring 61 and is not rigidly attached thereto. To this endthe upper end of the spring cl is bent to form an arm 61 which is formed to slide on the bottom of the footsection Z) and is loosely connected with said foot-section by a guide d attached to the footseetion, the arm (1 being free to slide in the said guide. It will be seen, therefore, that when the foot-section is raised it bears on the arm d and does not move independently thereon; but when the foot-section is depressed and the spring (1 is virtually short ened, so that its resilience is considerably decreased, the foot-section is free to slide on the arm (1 when the head-section rises and falls on the springs c c. It will be seen, therefore, that the freedom of the carriage-body to rise and fall on its springs is not impaired by the described provisions for holding the foot-section in different positions.
The head section is provided with side pieces 6 e and the foot-section with similar side pieces 6 e. The meeting ends of said side pieces are arranged to overlap, so that the side pieces form continuous guards along the sides of the carriage-body whether the foot-section is raised or depressed.
ICQ
f represents a supplemental back, which is removably inserted in guides f on the inner sides of the side pieces of the head-section. The supplemental back is used when the footsection is depressed and used as a foot-rest, the supplemental back serving to support the back of the rider in a sitting position. hen the body is adjusted as shown in Fig. 1, the supplemental back is removed.
I claim 1. A childs carriage, comprising a supporting-frame having wheels, a body transversely divided to form a head-section and a foot-section, said sections being connected by hinges, springs yieldingly supporting the head-section, an adjustable spring yieldingly supporting the foot-section, and means for detachably securing the adjustable spring to the supporting-frame. v
2. A childs carriage, comprising a supporting-frame having wheels, a body composed of ahead-section and a foot-section hinged thereto, said sections having side pieces which overlap each other at the meeting ends of the sections and form continuous guards when the foot-section is either raised or depressed, springs yieldingly supporting the head-section, and an adjustable spring yieldingly supporting the foot-section.
3. A childs carriage, comprising a supporting-frame having wheels, a body composed of a head-section and a foot-section hinged thereto, springs yieldingly supporting the two sections, means for adjusting the supportingspring of the foot-section to permit the depression of the latter, a supplemental back,
and means for detachably securing the same
