HAMMOCK.
SPECIFICATION forming` part of Letters Patent No. 660,063, dated October 16, 1900.
Application filed July 14, 1900.
To (7J/Z 7077/0777, 7775 77mg/ concern.-
Be it known that I, JACOB H. NICHOLSON,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hammocks, of which the following is a specification.
My in vention relates to hammocks; and its object is to provide a hammock to be supio ported in a hinged frame and provided with a canopy, all of which may be readily folded up for Transportation.
lhe invention is illustrated in the accompanying dra wings, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of the hammockframe and canopy in extended position. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the hammock-frame in folded position with the covering of the canopy removed from its supporting-bars. zo Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 3 3 of Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a top view of one side bar. Fig. 4 is a detail side view of one of the supporting-brackets to which the side bars ofthe hammock-frame and the canopy framebars are hinged. Fig. 5 is an edge view of the same. Fig. G is an end view of a portion of the hammock, illustrating the manner of fastening the covering of the canopy over the hammock.
The frame of my improved hammock is provided with two metal brackets A,one at each side. Each bracket comprises a central head (L, with two lateral wings b depending and extending outwardly one at each side thereof. On the upper edge of each wing is a lat emily-projecting flange or shoulder c. In thev preferred construction each bracket A is formed of a single pieceof suitable metal cast, stamped, or cut out into the desired 4o shape. To each wing b of each bracket A a side bar B is hinged at d. Each bar, as best shown in Fig. 3a, is provided at one end with a vertical slot d', which receives the adjacent edge of one wing b, to which it is hinged, and 4.5 when the side hars B are extended or spread the lateral flange or shoulder c on said wing engages and lies over the upper side of the side bars B, which prevents their further movement. The Jfree ends of the two side 5c bars at opposite sides of the hammock are rigidly secured together by a cross-bar e, to
Serial No. 23,618. (No model.)
which canvas, to form the stretched ham mock L, maybe secured, and cords f are preferably secured to said cross-bars, by which the ham mock-frame may be swung and supported.
Now it should be especially noted that the lianges or lateral shoulders c extend in oppositely-inclined directions above the points at which the side bars B are hinged, so that when all the side bars are extended, as shown in Fig. 1,1hey will incline upwardly from the middle of the hammock, where the greatest weight is sustained, and the frame will be securely and rigidly held in extended position.
To the heads a ofthe brackets A are jointed the smaller ends of flaring plates O, which latter project upward. Along the upper broad or flared edge of said plates is pivoted a number of canopy frame-bars g, and a flexible covering or canopy h, of suitable material, is stretched over said frame-bars g, said covering being,` permanently attached by one end to one of the cross-bars e and provided at its other end with a plurality of loops or other fastening devices t', adapted to engage hooks or keepers j on the other cross-bar e.
While my improved hammock is capable of being-used by adults, it is primarily intended for infants and children, and it should be observed that when a child is placed in the hammock and the parts fastened thc child is thereby prevented from falling out by means of the canopy and its frame-bars.
Having thus described myinvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A hammock-frame comprising side bars; brackets provided with oppositely-projectingl wings to which said side bars are hinged andv also provided with fianges or shoulders above the hinged points and adapted to engage and limit the upward movement of said hinged bars; and cross-bars connecting the free ends of said side bars.
2. Ahammock comprisingaframe provided with side bars; brackets provided with oppo siteIy-projecting wings to which said side bars are hinged and each having a head above said wings; a suitable hammock fabric stretched between said frame-bars; plates jointed to said bracket-heads; canopy frame-bars piv- IOO oted to said p1ates;. fand a canopy attachedhto said last-named'.framebars;
3. A ham mock comprising a frame provided with side bars; brackets to Which one end of 5 said side bars are hinged; cross-bars, e, connecting the free ends'of` said side bars plates jointed to said brackets; canopy frame-bars pivoted to said jointed plates; anda canopy; cover attached to said last-named frame-bars,
1o one end of said cover being permanently se'- curedto one cross-bar and the other end beingv provided with fastening devices wherebyY it may bevdetachably secured to the other cross-bar.
In testimony whereof I ax my signature I5 t-inthe presence of two Witnesses.
