T O ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. STEWA-RAT, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented and made Aa certain new and useful Improvement in' Bedsteads; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact deseriptioniof the said invention, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making part Vof this'speciication, whe'reini Figure is a plan of the said bedstead.
Figure 2 is a transverse section, showing the head support; and
Figure 3 -is a sectionthrough the head-board, showing theiinode of supporting the rollers.
Similar marks of reference denotethe same parts.
Bedsteads have heretofore been made with a sacking bottom, and with rollers atthe sides upon which the sucking is wound, in straining the same, by a lever applied to turn the rollers, and pawls have been employedto retain the rollers at the points to which they may be turned. In summer weather it is very desirable that a bedbottom possessing the properties of a hammock be provided 'to set within the ordinary bedstead, so as to furnish a soft and cool bedthat may be used with little `or no bedding upon it. To supply this want is the object of my present invention, which consists in a movable frame that can easily be applied to a bedstead, and carries the journals of rollers upon which the sacking is attached, and by which it may be strained to any d'esired extent, one pair of rollerscarrying the stickingv for the bed-bottom, the other the saclring or webbing composing the headerests.
In the drawing, at represents the head-board, bA the footboard, c c the side rails of the bedstead, of any desired construction, d d' are the rollers carrying the sacliing bottom c attached at its sides to said rollers, and thejournalsof said rollers enter the barsf and g that are attached removably to the head and foot-boards by screws, or similar means, so as to be applied with facility. Holesprovided at 2 allow for introducing a lever toturn the rollerid'and tightenthe bed-bottom, and Sis a ratchet-wheel and pawl to maintain the tension, The bar g that is attached to the head-board is extended up so as to receive the journals of the rollers and k that are supported at thei-rother endsin the movable bracket pieces' l Z. From' these rollers y.' It the webbing m is stretched to form a' support for the headand this can be tightened or slackened by the pawl and ratchet 4. Y
It will` be now apparent that this bed-bottom can be applied tc any desired bed'stead, and will resemble a hammock, and be cool, and adapted to summer use. i Wha-t I claim, 'and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The barsf and g, fitted, as specified, in combination with the rollers Z d, z', and k, carrying the sacking or webbing e and m, as and forl the purposes set forth. y
In Witness wheleof I have hereunto set my signature this 25th day of July, A.V D. 186i'.
