OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 666,934, dated January 29, 1901.
Application filed May 19, 1900- To ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM HENRY MOORE, a citizen of the United States, residing at 2527 Belleglade avenue, in the city of St. Louis, in. the State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Rocker, Chair, and Lounge; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in a combined chair, rocker, andlounge; and it consists in the novel arrangement, construction, and combination of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter described, and set forth in the claims.
The object of this invention is to construct a chair which can be converted into a rockingchair, reclining in valids chair, and lounge.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of my complete invention when used as a chair. Fig. 2 is a rear view of the same. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view of my invention, showing the same when converted into a lounge. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of one of the rack-releasing levers, showing its construction.
In the construction of the device, as shown, I provide a base 1, which is of the ordinary construction and is arranged to support the rocker-frame 2 in the ordinary manner, which is by means of a spring passing through its center. To the rear end of the seat 3 of the rocker-frame, at each side, is pivoted a backrest at, supported in its various adjusted positions by means of the side arm-rests 5, each of which is pivotally connected to said backrest by means of a rod 6, passing through the entire width. The forward ends of said armrests are pivotally connected to upwardlyprojecting arms 7, which are also pivotally connected to the sides of the rocker frame by means of a rod 8. The adjustment of said parts is attained by means of racks 9, one located on each side, their upper ends pivotally secured to the horizontal section of the armrest and their free ends guided and held in locked position in brackets 10, secured to the senal no. 17,315. (No model.)
side of the rocker-frame. To the side of the rocker-frame is also pivotally mounted a rackreleasing lever 11, its one end being provided with a bifurcation in whichis carried a roller 12, the purpose of which is to come in contact with the under surface of the rack and raise its teeth out of contact with the bracket 10. The motion by which this is attained is caused by the use of the hand-treadle 13, guided in brackets and pivoted to the forward end 14 ofsaid lever. The lever 11 is brought to its normal position by means of the coilspring 15, the same motion being imparted to the like lever on the opposite side by means of the shaft 16, to which both levers are keyed. In this manner only one hand-treadle is necessary, as the movements of both levers are simultaneously in contact with the racks on each side, releasing them from the brackets in which they are locked.
To the rear of the back-rest is carried a supporting-frame 17, consisting of two legs 18, connected by rungs 19, and is held in a supported position by coil-springs 20, the upper ends of said legs being pivotaily secured to the sides of the back-rest. (See Figs. 2 and 3.) The frame 17 when not in use is folded against the back, as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 3, and held in position by a pivoted latch 21.
WVithin the rocker-frame, at its top, is a frame 22, pivoted at its rear upon the same rod 23 which carries the back, and is allowed to be raised,as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 3. Underneath this frame, within the rocker-frame, is provided a receptacle 24,in which bedclothes may be stored. A foot-rest 25 is also pivotally secured to the rocker-frame and is provided with a support 26, similar to that nnm bered 17 and is folded in the same manner. This rest may be folded under the frame 22 and housed within the receptacle when it is desired not to use the same.
When it is desired to convert the chair into a rocker, the catches 27 and 28, which are pivoted at their upper ends to the rocker-frame, have their lower ends moved to the position as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 3, which will release the same from the cross-bars 29, thereby allowing the chair to be rocked at will.
This chair, as will be seen, is of course provided with the required upholstering for comfort and fancy and is made durable and compact.
Having fully described my invention, What I claim is 1. In a device of the class described, the combination with a frame having brackets, a back-rest, an arm-rest, and an arm pivotally connected with each other and with the frame, and at each side of the latter to the racks pivoted to the arm-rest and moving through said brackets; of a pair of releasinglevers having rollers at their extremities adapted to lift said racks, a pivot-shaft journaled in the frame and connecting said levers so as to cause them to move in unison, and hand-treadles guided in brackets and connected with the levers at either side of the device, all substantially as described.
