Description
UNITED STATES Iatented February 9, 1904.
PATENT OFFICE.
FAN ATTACHMENT.
SPECIFICATION To all whom it may concernf Be it known that I, EDWARD B. VERONEE, a
citizen of the United States, residing at St. Augustine, in the county of St. John and State of Florida, have invented new and useful Improvements in Fan Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
' My invention relates to new and useful improvements in fan attachments; and its object is to provide a device of this character which may be attached to a rocking-chair, cradle, or other article of furniture and which will be operated automatically by the rocking of the furniture.
A further object is to provide an attachment of this character which can be readily attached to or removed from position upon a chair or cradle.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists of a cross-bar in which is slidably mounted a rod having a roller at itslower end. A spring is connected at opposite ends to the rod and bar, so as to hold the roller normally removed from the bar. The rockers of a chair or cradle are adapted to be placed over the ends of the cross-bar, and the upper end of the rod is pivoted to a crank which is arranged at one end of a shaft detachably connected to the top of a chair or cradle. Afan of any suitable form may be attached to the shaft, and when the chair is rocked the crank is reciprocated, thereby imparting an oscillating movement to the fan.
The invention also consists in the further novel construction and combination of parts erence, 1 is a cross-bar having an L-shaped arm 2' at each end, and from the outer ends of these extensions pro ect bow-shaped springforming part of Letters Patent No. 751,963, dated February 9, 1904. Application filed May 20, 1903. Serial No. 158,019. (No model.) 7
arms 3. The rockers 40f achair 5 are adapted to be inserted between the extensions 2 and the arms 3, and, as is obvious, these arms will clamp the rockers in position at the ends of the bar 1. fastened to the back of the chair 5 by means of clamping-screws 7, and this bracket has a tubular extension 8 at its upper end, within which is journaled a shaft 9. A crank 10 is secured to the rear end of the shaft and is pivoted toa rod 11, which extends downward through a passage 12 in the cross-bar 1 and is provided at its lower end witha roller or caster 13. A spring 14 is arranged about the rod 11 and is connected at opposite ends to said rod and to the cross-bar 1, respectively.
A fan 15 of any desired form has its stem 16 arranged within the forward end of the shaft 9, and this stem is adapted to be secured in position in any suitable manner, as by means of a set-screw 17. j
When the fan attachment above described has been secured to a chair or cradle, it will be obvious that when the article of furniture is rocked backward-the bar 1 and the bracket 6 will be carried downward therewith and the spring 1 1 will be tensioned. The crank 10 will be swung by the rod 11 during the backward movement of the chair, and the fan l5'will therefore be swung to one side. WVhen the chair is rocked forward, tension will be removed from the spring 14 and it will contract, and thereby retain the roller 13 upon the floor and at the same time cause the crank 10 to partly rotate, and thereby swing the fan 15 to the other side. It will be seen that the device is very simple and inexpensive in construction and can be readily attached to a chair. By providing a spring 14: the roller 13 is held at all times upon the floor. This roller permits of a slight 'movement of the rod upon the floor, and any covering upon the floor will not be injured thereby.
In the foregoing description I have shown the preferred form of my invention; but I do not limit myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit orsacrificing any A bracket 6 is adapted .to be of the advantages thereof, and I therefore reserve the right to make such changes as fairly fall within the scope of my invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is 1. A fan attachment for rocking furniture comprising a cross-bar, extensions thereto adapted to receive rockers, means for clamping the rockers Within the extensions, a bracket, a shaft journaled therein, a crank at one end of the shaft, a fan at the opposite end, a rod connected to the crank and slidably mounted in the cross-bar, and a spring connecting the rod and bar.
2. A fan attachment for rocking furniture comprising a cross-bar, extensions at the ends thereof adapted to receive rockers, springarms to the extensions for clamping the rockers therein, a bracket, a shaft journaled therein, a fan adjustably connected to the shaft, a crank connected to the shaft, a rod pivoted to the crank and slidably mounted within the cross-bar, a roller at the lower end of the rod, and a spring upon the rod and connected at opposite ends thereto and to the bar, respectively.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
EDWARD B. VERONEE. Witnesses:
J. J. BYRNE, EDITH FORWARD.
