UNITE STATES PATENT OFFICE. I
GEORGE E. BLAINE, OF COSHOOTON, OHIO.
SEAT-SPRING FOR VEHICLES.
'3PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 708,115, dated September 2, 1902.
Application filed January 30, 1902. Serial No. 91,874. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE E. BLAINE,a citizen of the United States, residing at ()0- shocton, in thecounty of (Joshocton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Seat-Springs for Vehi-' may be easily and quickly adjusted to the seat to enable the seat to be engaged with wagon-boxes of different widths, and, furthermore, to provide means for attaching the spring to the wagon-box, which means will permit of the seat being swung upwardly and forwardly and also when the seat is in position for use prevent it from shifting longitudinally of the wagon-box.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement' of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully described, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims. Y
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the forward end of a Wagon-box. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the seat swung upwardly and forwardly. Fig. 3 is a detail top plan view of the spring. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the upper edge of the wagon-box, the ends of the seat, and the spring, showing the relative arrangements of parts when the seat is in position for use; and Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the clasp.
Referring to the drawings, 1 denotes the wagon-box, and 2 the seat. These parts may be of any well-known or approved construction.
3 denotes the springs, each of which preferably consists of a single length of springrod bent intermediate its ends to form coils 4, the ends of which terminate in oppositelyprojecting arms 5, formed with hooks 6. The
connecting the springs from the seat.
10 denotes a clasp having upwardly-projecting points 11. This clasp is adapted to engagevthe side pieces of the loop and to be embedded in the lower side of the seat, and is held in position bya screw 12, which passes through the clasp and between the members of the loop. By loosening this screw the loop of thespring may be moved inwardly or outwardly to adapt the seat to wagon-bodies of different widths without the necessity of dihs- T e sharp bend a in the spring to form the arms S'acts as a fulcrum for the spring, so that the entire resiliency takes place at the coils and not throughout that portion of the spring ofwhich the arms 8 and loop are formed, so that therewill be no tendency Whatever to pull or tear the spring from its fastening connecting it to the bottom of the seat.
It will be noticed that byreason of pivot- .ally connecting one end of the spring to the wagon-box and loosely connecting the other end so as to permit it to be disengaged therefrom the seat may be' quickly and easily swung upwardly and forwardly, as is oftentimes desired, and, furthermore, by reason of this pivotal connection the seat is prevented from creeping or sliding lengthwise of the 'wagon-boxand remains in proper position when in use.
From the'foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction, mode of operation, and advantages of the invention will be readily understood withoutfrequirin g an extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and details of construction'may. bemade within the scope of the invention without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Pat- 5 cut, is
to from said coils and lying in the same horizontal plane as the upper portions of the coils and formed with a loop, the upper surface of said coils, the last-named arms and the loop contacting with and supporting said 15 seat, and means for adjnstably connecting said loop to said seat, said means comprising a clasp surrounding the sides of the loop and having its ends embedded in the lower side of the seat, and a screw passed through said :20 clasp between the sides of the loop and into said seat, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with a wagon-box and a seat, of a spring consisting of two coils terminating in arms, one of which is pivotally connected to the upper edge of the side of the wagon-box, and the other of which has a loose hook engagement therewith,said springs being provided with a second set of arms lying in a horizontal plane and parallel with the upper portion of the coils and terminating in a loop, and means for adjustably connecting said loop to said seat, said means comprising a clasp surrounding the sides of the loop and having its ends embedded in the lower side of the seat, and a screw passed through said clasp between the sides of the loop and into the seat, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
GEO. E. BLAINE.
