UNITED STATES AUGUSTUS T. KNORZER, OF MIDDLETOWN, CONNECTICUT.
SPRING FOR COUCHES, SEATS, 84c.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 664,051, dated December 18, 1900.
Application filed May 2, 1900. Serial No. 15,241. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS T. KNOB.- ZER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Middletown, in the county of Middlesex and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Spring for Couches, Seats, &c., of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in springs for couches, seats, and the like.
The object of the presentinvention is to improve the construction of springs for couches, chair-seats, and the like, more especially the means for connecting and supporting the springs, and to provide a simple and comparatively inexpensive construction adapted to dispense with the use of twine and'capable of permitting the springs to yield practically as freely as when they are connected by twine.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure l is a plan view of a set of springs connected and supported in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective View of one of the transverse braces.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawmgs.
1 designates a couch-frame receiving a set of coiled springs 2, arranged in parallel rows in the usual manner and connected by longitudinal and transverse brace's 3 and 4, which are adapted to take the place of twine for connecting and supporting the springs. Each brace, which may be of any desired length to suit the character of the piece of furniture to which the springs are applied, is constructed of Wire and is provided at intervals between its ends with eyes 5, adapted to receive the top coils of the springs, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 2 of the accompanying drawings. The brace is coiled to form the eyes before it is applied to the springs, and the latter are partially rotated to engage their upper coils with the eyes before they are applied to the frame. The brace is provided with inclined end portions 6, extending downward to one of the intermediate coils and terminating in a pair of eyes 7 and 8, connected, respectively, with one of the said intermediate coils and with one end of a chain 9. The chains 9 form flexible connections between the marginal springs and the frame, and they are stapled or otherwise secured to the latter at their outer ends, and they form flexible connections, which are adapted to permit the springs to yield inwardly, as will be readily apparent. Also the chains permit the braces to be varied in length, or rather they afford an adjustable connection, any one of the links being adapted to receive the staple or other fastening device for connecting the brace to the frame. The marginal springs are rotated to engage the intermediate coils with the eyes 7. The marginal springs are also connected with a resilient rectangular top frame 10, of stout wire or other suitable material, which is secured to the outer sides of the springs by metal clips 11, presenting flat upper faces and having their sides bent downward and embracing the top frame and the upper coils, as clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The springs are also supported by supplemental side and end braces 12 and 13, which extend across the marginal springs to the top frame and downward therefrom to the frame 1 of the couch.
It will be seen that the springsare firmly supported in an upright position and are adapted to yield freely in all directions and that the improvements are applicable to couches, chair-seats, and other pieces of furniture or objects having cushioning-springs.
What I claim is- 1. In a device of the class described, the combination with a frame or support, and springs, of a wire brace provided between its ends with eyes arranged in pairs and adapted to receive the upper coils of the springs, said brace having a'horizontal central portion connecting the springs and provided with inclined ends extending downward within the terminal springs and connected to intermediate coils of the same and having flexible connections with the frame or support, substantially as described. I
2. In a device of the class described, the combination with a frame or support, and a row of springs, of a wire brace provided between its ends with eyes arranged in pairs to receive the top coils of the springs, said brace having an intermediate horizontal portion connecting the springs and provided with inclined end portions provided with eyes receiving intermediate coils of the marginal springs, and chains connecting the ends of the brace with the frame or support, substantially as described.
3. In a device of the class described, the combination of a supporting-frame, springs arranged in rows, Wire braces connecting the springs and provided between their ends with eyes arranged in pairs to receive the top coils, said braces being provided with intermediate horizontal portions connecting the springs my own I have hereto affixed my signature in 25 the presence of two witnesses.
