IMPROVED REVERSIBLE LOUNGE.
TO ALL WHOM IT `MAY CONOERN Be it known that I, SAMUEL LLOYD, of the cityntnd county of Was'hington, the .District of Columbia,y have invented anewand 'useful Reversible Lounge# and the following is a full, clear, andfexact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of 'this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents and shows a back view or rear side elevation, the end and back reversed being shown in ,red lines.
.1 Figure 2 shows a vertical and longitudinal front. view in section ofthe same. Figure 3 shows a top view of the back fastcnings. v The object of my invention is to supply an article of furniture for the' use and convenience of offices, libraries,'parlors, sitting-rooms, Sie., that lcan be easily reversed and made right or left,'to suit theconvenience or position in which it is desirable to place it, and also to equalize the wear-lof the upholstery. My invention consists in the construction of the base frame; the sliding reversible frame and modeof securing it; the changeable end or arm, so that the appearance is the'same whether right or left; the mode of securing and changing the position of the back to correspond with reversing the end or arm.
'.lo enable others skilled in the art to make and use-my invention, I will describe it more fully, referring to the drawings, andthe letters of reference marked thereon.
I make the hase frame A, supported uponv its four legs, of' suitable material, of any desired pattern or form, on the top of which is fittcdlthc sliding frame B, which has its bearings in a, recess, b b, formed by a rabbet in the top ofthe frameA. VIn both ends of titel-Jose frame A may he grooves, ce, cut for slides or .vertical pins, cla, to tit into, which are attached or made on the end or arm C to hold it in place. If desirable, 'metal pins and sockets for them to lit into may be substituted for-the grooves a a and slides c c, the sliding frame B being \as much shorter than the buse frame A as the space to be occupied by the base or foot d of the end or arm C. The Vsliding frame B,to which the upholstering D is attached to form the seat of the lounge, is held` from lifting out of its place when in either position, right or left, by the metal ribs c e, secured to the inside of the frame A, and the hooksf, which arcA fasteneflto the inside of the sliding frame B, duplicates'of the ribs c c and hook fbeing on the insidebf the front part ot' the frames A and B, but will allow the seat D, with the sliding frame B, to be lifted up, and the front or worn side of the seat D reversed to the hack, when the, arm C is taken off, und the frame B is in the middle of the base frame A, so that the pressure of the springs, or theV shape of the seat, or the wear of the covering, can be equa-lined by reversing sides ofthe seat as often ns may-he desired. yI make the -back of the lounge, E, and secure it to the hase frame A by metalV knobs, i2', havingshouldcrs, as shown in lig. 3, with wrist-pins that slide' in the angular slots 7L L of the metal plates F F, which slots are inclined right and left, so that by raisingeither end of the back, the other vend will-,bedepressed by the Wristpin in the knob following the inclined groove, the shoulders on the knobs z'z'bearing 'against the metal plates F F, thereby preventing any wear in the upholstery from moving the beck, so that the position' ofthe back may 'conform to the end of the lounge in which the end. or arm is placed, as seen in fig. 1. If necessary, the back E may beV strengthened and made very firm by plates of metal, g g, secured to the back ot' frame A, and extending up in the rear of the bacleboard E.
The operation of reversing the head of a lounge constructed as above described, is very easily done, not" requiring any implement, and but a few moments of time. It is simply to lift out the armC, slide the seat D to the end of thc frame, A', where the arm C was taken out, place the nrm in the other end, and liftthe end of the bock E, end thc'loungc is reversed. When it is desirable to change the sides of the sest'D, it is only necessary to remove the arm C, and to slide the frame B to the centre of the base frame A, lift the seat D out and cha-ngc the ends, and replace it in either position, right or left, and put the arm C in place. Itis a well-known fact, that in many pinceauhere it would be desirable to have a lounge, they arc'very awkward and inconvenient in consequence of the'arrn or head being at the wrong end. And furthermore, the seat will become much worn infront,` and out of proper shape, by being always pressed in one position. Thus it will readily be seen that all ofthese defects will be entirely remedied by roy invention as above described.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- so that tho beck of the sliding frame B can be brought.
1 i am 2.
1. I claim the metal plates F F, with -the an guiar slots h h, wrist-pins z' z', in combination with the snpporting plates'g g, as described and set forth.
2. I claim the mode of securing the sent frame B to' the freine A, by means of the metal ribs e'e and hooksv and, when in proper positiombe taken out and reversed, I
ff, so that the seat frame B can be moved longitudinally,
so the front; as imdl'or the purposes herein set forth.'
3. I claim constructing lounges so that the movable arm may be placed at either end of the frame, in combination with the sliding seat and back shifting to`c`onform'to the head, so thatv the appearance is the same whether right or left. y I l sAM'L LLOYD.
