SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 656,775, dated August 28, 1900.
Application filed January 12, 1900. Serial No. 1,214. (No model.)
To all whom 2525 may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES E. Moons, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the county of Fulton and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Vehicle-Seat, of which the following is aspecification.
This invention relates to vehicle-seats, and more particularly to a supplemental-seat attachment therefor, the object of the invention being to provide a seat comprising a support which may be moved into and out of operative position and which when in its operative position may receive a cushion and when in its inoperative position may be completely concealed and out of the way.
In the drawings forming a portion of this specification, and in which similar numerals of reference designate like and corresponding parts in the several views, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a seat proper with a supplemental seat in its operative position. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of Fig. 1, with a portion of the bottom of the seat-box broken away. Fig. 3 is a section on line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view showing the slidable seat-support. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view showing a guide-plate for the slidable support, which is adapted for use upon a seat in which the box does not have a front board of sufficient depth to permit of the cutting of the slideway therethrough. Fig. 6 is a section similar to Fig. 3 and showing the application of the plate shown in Fig. 5.
Referring now to the drawings, the present invention is shown in connection with a main.
seat comprising a box which includes end portions 5 and 6, a back portion 7, and a front portion 8, and which box incloses recesses 9 for the reception of the curtains of the vehicles in the usual manner. Instead of forming a single recess 9 the inclosure of the sides and the front and back of the seat-box is divided into three compartments by means of vertical partitions 10 and 11, these compartments comprising two end compartments 9 and 10, having bottom closures 11 and provided with removable covers in the usual manner, whereby access to the compartments may be had. The third compartment 131ies between the end compartments 9,and leading to this compartment 13 is a slot or guideway 14: in the front 8 of the seat-box and adjacent the upper edge thereof.
In the guideway 14 is disposed a slidable seat-support in the form of a plate 15, the rear end of which is bent downwardly within the compartment 18, as shown at 16, and is provided with perforations l7 and 18, through which are passed guide-rods 19, having their ends engaged with perforations in the front and back walls of the seat-box or rigidly con nected therewith in any other suitable manner. The seat-supporting plate 15 is adapted for reciprocatory movement in the slot 14 and upon the rods 19, so that it may be drawn outwardly to the position shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 of the drawings,or may be moved rearwardly to the'position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 3, and to facilitate this movement of the plate the outer end thereof is provided with a downturned finger-piece 20.
A supplemental seat comprises a board 21,
the rear edge of which is hinged to the front 8 of the seat-box, adjacent the upper edge thereof, by means of hinges of any suitable kind and in such a position that the board will lie flat upon the supporting-plate 15 when the latter is in its extended position. (Illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 of the drawings.) Fixed to the board 21 or otherwise attached thereto is a cushion 22, which may correspond to the cushion 23 upon the seat proper and preferably of such thickness as to lie with its upper face in the same plane therewith. Normally the supporting-plate 15 is pushed inwardly to the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 3, when the board 21 hangs downwardly and against the face of the front 8 of the seat-box, and when it is desired to use the supplemental seat the board 21 is raised and the plate 15 is drawn outwardly to support the seat in its operative position.
In order to adapt the present invention to a seat-box in which the front board is omitted and is substituted by a strip or beam of insufficient depth to permit the formation of the slot 14, a U-shaped guide-plate 25, as shown in Fig. 6 of the drawings, is employed. This guide-plate has its ends 26 and 27 bent out wardly and perforated for the reception of bolts, by means of which it is attached to the under side of the frame of the seat-box. De-
ICU
pending from the Web of the guide-plate is a flange 28, having perforations 29 and 30 therein, which receive the front ends of the guiderods 19 and hold them in the proper positions to cooperate with the perforations l7 and 18 of the downturned end 16 of the plate 15. The operation of mechanism of this modified form of the invention is the same in every respect as that above described.
It will of course be understood that in practice any desired number of guide-rods 19 may be employed and that the parts of the structure may be formed of any suitable materials and may have any suitable size and proportions Without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What is claimed is- An attachment for buggy-seats, comprising a U shaped plate having its extremities turned outwardly in opposite directions and adapted for attachment to the under side of a buggy-seat and form a guideway between the under side of the seat and the bight of the plate, a flange upon the bight of the plate and extending downwardly therefrom, said flange having perforations therein, parallel rods engaged with the perforations and adapted to engage perforations in a depending portion of the buggy-seat, and a seat-plate slidably disposed upon the bight of the U-shaped plate andbetween the arms thereof, said seatplate having its rear end bent downwardly and perforated and receiving the rods in its perforations, whereby the seat-plate may be held in its operative relation to the first-named plate.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
CHARLES E. MOORE.
