GEORGE YOERGER AND WILLIAM SCHWEGLER, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
PUNCHlNG-BAG PLATFORM.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 689,344, dated December 17, 1901. Application filed August 27, 1901. Serial No. 73,434. (No model.)
T0 all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we,GEORGE YOERGER and WILLIAM SCHWEGLER, citizens of the United States, and residents of Brooklyn, county of Kings, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Punching-Bag Platforms, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a punching-bag platform which is adapted to be suspended from the ceiling and which is so constructed that though thoroughly steadied the concussion of the blows will not be transmitted to the building.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of our improved punching-bag platform. Fig. 2 is a detail longitudinal section through the frame-suspending mechanism; Fig. 3, a detail longitudinal section through portions of the telescoping tubes; and Fig. 4, a cross-section on line A B, Fig. 3.
The letter a represents a .circular frame provided with a number of radial upwardlybent arms a', the inner ends of which are received by the lateral branches of a cruciform socket b. The lower branch of the socket receives a perforated plug c, from which the punching-bag d is freely suspended by a rope e. The upper branch of the socket receives a plug f, into which is screwed the lower end of a plunger or rod g. The upper end of the plunger g passes loosely through a disk h of a sleeve h and is headed above said disk, as at g'. Arcoiled spring @surrounding the plunger g between the plug fand the disk h', tends to normally push the frame ct down. The sleeve his screwed into the end of a lower tubular rod j, which is telescoped by an upper tubular rod 7c. The rod 7s is removably secured to the ceiling by a socket Z. A clamp m', pivoted to a sleeve or bearing n, which embraces the rod 7c, is adapted to engage the rod j and to thus hold it in place.
In order to steady the frame a., it is provided with a number of eyes @2,through which passes a stay rope or wire o, which also passes over hooks p, screwed into the ceiling radially around the socket Z.
It will be seen that when the bag is punched and thrown against the frame a the blow will be taken up by the spring t', while the frame and the plunger will be slightly raised. Thus the objectionable noise and concussion transmitted to the wall or ceiling of a gymnasium or other building will be avoided, and yet the frame will be thoroughly steadied by the plunger in its movement. As the platform is suspended from the ceiling and not from the wall, the gymnast can move freely and face the bag from all directions. The platform may be easily raised or lowered, so that its elevation may be regulated to s uit children or adults, any slack in the stay-rope being taken up by forming a loop into the same.
The apparatus may be taken 'down or set u p in a short time and with little trouble, is noiseless, and does not jar under the blows of the user.
What we claim is- 1. A punching-bag platform composed of a frame, a spring-plunger connected thereto, a tube depending from the ceiling, means for yieldingly connecting the plunger to the tube, and a punching-bag freely suspended from the frame, substantially as specied.
2. A punching-bag platform composed of a frame, a punching-bag suspended therefrom, a headed spring-plunger connected to the frame, a pair of telescoping tubes, and means for movably connecting the spring-plunger t0 the lower tube, substantially as specified.
Signed by us at New York city, county and State of New York, this 24th day of August, 1901.
