LOUIS JANSON, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
FOOT-REST FOR CAR-SEATS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of LettersjPatent No. 716,715, dated Dec mb 23, 1902.
Application filed March 17, 1902. Serial No. 98,522. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, LOUIS JANSON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Brooklyn, in the mechanism for hanging the same between theside frames of the seat in such manner that the foot-rest will be automatically shifted relative to the position of the back and seat through the movement of the back, and to so construct said mechanism that it will be positive, effective, economic, and readily applied.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a vertical section through the frame of a car-seat and the improved footrest, and Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view of a portion of the foot-rest audits bearing. A represents a side frame of a car-seat; B,
the seat proper; O, a portion of the lift-over back, and D a shifting arm for the seat. At the upper central portions of the side frames A a shaft 10, either solid or tubular, is journaled, and near each end of the shaft a longitudinal rib 11 is formed, as is best shown in Fig. 2. is lifted through the medium of guide-arms 12, attached to the shaft at one end and connected by pivot-pins 13 at their other ends to the bottom portions of the side irons for the back O, as is shown in Fig. 1.
The foot-rest E consists of two end pieces 14, shaped to form two sections 14 and la at angles to each other, and side bars 15, connecting the end pieces 14, preferably through the medium of eyes 16 at the terminals of the end pieces, as is also shown in Fig. 1.
At the union of the sections 14 and 142 of each end piece 14 of the foot-rest an upwardlyextending lug 17 is formed, and each lug 17 carries a sleeve 18, through which the shaft The shaft 10 is turned as theback O 10 is loosely passed. Each sleeve 18 is usually provided with a lon gitudin al offset 19 in order that a longitudinal groove or channel 19 may be conveniently made in the wall of the bore of the sleeve to receive the ribs 11 on the shaft. The shaft is free to turn to the extent of the transverse dimensions of the grooves 19 in the sleeves before the ribs 11 act upon the walls of the groove to rock or shift the foot-rest, and this last motion is provided in order that the back when lifted over will pass beyond the perpendicular before theguide-arms 12 will have turned the shaft 10 sufficiently to bring the ribs 11 on the shaft in operative contact with the bearing-sleeves of the footrest, thus shifting the foot-rest to either one or the other of the positions shown in Fig. 1 almost at the same time that the back 0 is brought to its full adjusted position.
In operation when the foot-rest is brought to a position of rest one section of the end pieces 14will occupy a horizontal position and the other section a downwardly-inclined position, the latter sections of said pieces being those which are beneath the back of the seat, as is shown in positive lines in Fig. 1. The foot-rest is limitedin its downward movement by stop-lugs 16 on the said frames with which the inclined sections engage.
' Any approved means may be employed for controlling the inclination of the back O. In the drawings this is shown accomplished by links 20 and 21, located above and below the guide-ar ms 12, which links are pivoted at one of their ends to the bottom portions of the side irons for the back, the other ends of the links being free and provided with rack-teeth engaging with the teeth of fixed pinions 22, carriedby the side frames A, the links being held in such engagement by guide projections 23 from the guide-arms 12, which receive between them the toothed portions of the links; but such construction constitutes the subjectmatter of another application filed by me on the 2-lth day of January, 1902, Serial No. 91,062.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- In car-seats, the co mbination with the back of the seat, the side frames, a shaft mounted to rock in the side frames and provided with longitudinal projections, and connections between the back of the seat and said shaft, to rock the shaft by the backward and the forbeing adapted to receive the longitudinal proward movement of the seat, ofa foot-rest havjections from the said shaft, for the purpose ingangularsidesectionsinclineddownwardly described.
in opposite directions, standards extending In testimony whereof I have signed my upward from the junction of the members of I name to this specification in the presence of the side sections of the foot-rest, a sleeve suptwo subscribing witnesses.
ported by each of said standards, through LOUIS JANSON. which sleeves the said shaft passes, each I sleeve being provided with a channel in its inner wall at one side, which channel is formed l with flat Walls and a concaved wall extending between such fiat Walls, the said channels Witnesses:
