MILLARD E. STOCKWELL, OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
FURNlTURE-CASTER GUARD.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 672,138, dated April 16, 1901.
Application filed October 30, 1899. Serial No. 735,231. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that LMILLARD E. STooKWELL, a citizen of the United States,'residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Guards for Furniture-Casters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a cover for covering furniture-casters; and its object is to provide a cheap, durable, and ornamental means of covering furniture-casters and to so apply said cover that it will not interfere with the free action of the caster. I attain this object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 shows a bell-shaped cover with which the caster may be turned to any desired position on its pintle, with or Without turning the cover. Fig. 2 is a front elevation, and Fig. 3 is a side elevation, of a modified form of cover; and Fig. 4 is a bottom plan of the cover shown in Fig. 1.
Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A represents the lower end of a bed or table post.
B represents a caster-wheel, and B represents an outline of a caster-frame, and O 0 represents the several forms of cover. The cover 0 is designed to entirely inclose the caster and has a cap-plate C, which is provided with an aperture 0, through which the pintle b is to pass, so the plate 0" will be held between the top I) of the caster-frame B and the foot of the post. At 0, I show a bellshaped cover, whichmay be made of any desired pattern or design, but should be made large enough diametrically to allow the caster to turn freely around the pintle Without turning the cover with it, while the cover 0' is designed to turn with the caster as it turns on its pintle and may be made of any desired pattern or design, the spirit of my invention lying not in the form, but in the utility of the cover.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure vby Letters Patent of the United States, is-
In combination with a chair-leg, a caster with a pintle detachably secured to said leg, a cup-shaped protector having a central orifice adapted to fit over the pintle of the caster and detachably secured thereto, substantially as set forth.
Signed at Grand Rapids, Michigan, October 25, 1899.
