SUNSHADE FOR BUGGIFS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 673,880, dated May 14, 1901.
Application tiled January 9, 1901. serial No. 42,675. KNO models To all whmn it may concern:
Be it known that we, GEORGE W. LIvEsAY and TAYLOR Bocos, citizens of the United States, residing at Chillicothe, in the county of Ross and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Sunshade forBuggies, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to sunshades for buggies and other vehicles; and the object of the same is to provide a simple and effective attachment for application to the interior of a buggy or other vehicle top, to either side, to shield an occupant from the annoying sensation and unpleasant heat of the sun without resorting to the use of the ordinary form of curtains, and thereby permit said top to remain open, with the desired advantages of ventilation, and also have the shade applied in such manner that it can be readily shifted from one position to another or applied at different points within the vehicle-top.
The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts, which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure l is a perspective View of a portion of a buggy body and top, showing one form of the improved shade applied thereto in operative position. Fig.,2 is a sectional elevation of a portion of the buggytop looking toward the interior thereof and showing a modilication in the means for holding the shade and permitting adjustment thereof. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of one form of the shade, partially broken away to show the structural features thereof. Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view of the form of shade shown by Fig. 3 in folded condition. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective View of a modiied and simpler form of the improved shade constructed to fold. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective view of a further-modified form of the shade in its simplest non-foldable form.
Similar characters of reference are employed to indicate corresponding parts in the dseveral views.
The numeral l designates a buggy-top of any suitable form and having the usual concealed joint 2, which comprises the framestrips usually located exclusively in the rear portion of the top only and extending longitudinally along the sides of the top above the bow-terminals, or in some instances having said bow-terminals in part fastened thereto. Supplemental to this wellunderstood construction in buggy or vehicle manufacture, and as shown by Fig. 2, it is proposed in some instances to run wires 3 forwardly therefrom on each side to provide for longitudinal adjustment of the improved shade attachment in order to locate it at the front of the top on either side, the said wires being held by suitable eyes 4. There are many other ways in which the improved shade could be applied, and it is intended by the showing and explanation of the two forms just set forth to either hold it stationary on either one or both sides at the rear or longitudinally adjustable irrespective of the means that may be hereafter devised or the numerous other devices that may be used for the same purpose.
The form of the improved shade as shown by Figs. l, 2, 3, and 4 comprises an upper two-part supporting-bar 5, having a central hinge connection 6 and inclosed in a pocket 7 at the upper portion of a fabric or other body 8, which forms the shade proper and in the present instance is semicircular in shape, with scalloped edge, though other forms and mode of finish can be equally well employed. Extending upwardly from each part of the supporting-bar 5 isa hook or hanger 9 for removable engagement with the joint 2, wires 3, or other device that may be used in the buggy or vehicle top to receive them. As shown by Fig. 4, this form of the fan is foldable to reduce the same to compact form for storage or other purposes, and to hold the body 8 down in place and prevent the same from being blown bythe Wind spreaders 10 are incased in pockets ll in said body, and below said spreaders are weight-bars l2, likewise incased in pockets 13 on the body, the spreaders being secured at their upper ends to the parts of the bar 5 and both the spreaders and the weight-barsarranged at outward angles of inclination on opposite sides of the body to more effectively maintain the said body in proper extended or open condition and set up a stronger resistance to the movement of the body by the wind.
In the form of the device shown by Fig. 5 the body 14 is free of all attachments, and the two-part supporting-bar l5 is arranged to IOO fold'in a plane at a right angle to that of the supporting-bar 5 to reduce the entire device Y to more compact form. The hooks or hangers 9 are the same in this instance as in the form heretofore set forth, and in the lower edge of the inner terminal of one part of the par 15 a notch or recess 16 is formed to receive a stud 16a on the adjacent terminal of the other part of the said bar to thereby provide for an accurate alinement of the two parts of the bar when arranged for use.
The form of the shade shown by Fig. 6 is the simplest and comprises a body 17 without attachments and an upper continuous supporting-bar 18 without break or joint and to which the hangers 9 are attached on opposite sides of the center of the shade.
In the folding forms of the device the hangf ers 9 both have their open engaging portions on the same side ofthe supporting-bar to which they are attached, so that when the said bar and body depending therefrom or attached thereto are folded the hooks will face inwardly toward each other, as shown by Fig. 4,' and thus be out of the way and avoid catching on extraneous objects or devices when stored or` not in use. It is proposed to use any kind of suitable material or fabric for the construction of the bodies of the shade,
and in some instances it may be preferable to use leather or other fabric similar to that forming the covering of the buggy or vehicle top.
It will be understood that when the shade in either of the forms heretofore set forth is mounted in position for use the heating and glaring effect of the sun can be prevented from having any effect whatsoever on the face or other portion of the body of the occupant of a buggy or other vehicle and that the shade can be shifted to different positions at the rear or front portions of the top to accommodate the direction of movement of' the buggy or vehicle or the angle of the suns rays relatively thereto.
The form of the shade having the spreaders, which serve as ribs, can also be used as a fan, and it will be observed that all the bodies are preferably made in fan shape.
Further changes in the form, size, proportions, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention. The improved device may also be used at the back of the top when the curtain at such point is rolled up.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1. The combination with a vehicle-top of' a sunshade having an upper supporting-bar provided with hangers to engage the upper inner por-tion of the said top, and a flexible body depending from said bar and extending` downwardly only part way over the interior sides of therbows to avoid interfering with the ventilation of the top.
2. The combination with a vehicle-top, of a sunshade having an upper supporting-bar provided with hangers to engage and longitudinally move in relation to the upper inner portion of the said top, and a flexible body depending from the said bar, whereby the sunshade may be shifted from rear to front of the top.
3. A sunshade for a vehicle-top having a foldable supporting-bar and a flexible body depending therefrom.
4. A sunshade having a foldable supporting-bar provided with hangers on opposite sides of the center, and a flexible body depending therefrom.
5. A sunshade for a vehicle-top having an upper supporting-bar and a depending flexible Vfan-shaped body adapted to be applied to the upper inner portion of the said'top and cover only a portion of one side of the latter.
6. A sunshade for a vehicle-top havinga supporting-bar at the 'upper portion only thereof, a flexible body depending from said bar, and spreaders engaging portions of said body and extending from the supporting-bar.
7. A sunshade for vehicle-topshaving a supporting-bar at the upper portion thereof, a iexible body depending from said bar, and weight-bars carried by said body for the purpose set forth.
8. A sunshade for a vehicle-top having a supporting-bar at the upper portion thereof, a flexible body depending from said bar, spreaders engaging portions of said body, and- Weight-bars engaging other portions of the body.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own We have hereto affixed our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE W. LIVESAY. TAYLOR BOGGS.
