ATTACHMENT FOR THEATER-SEATS- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 784,590, dated March 14, 1905.
Application filed March 4, 1904. Serial No. 196,483.
To @ZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN A. OLsoN and PERRY D. SHERWIN, citizens of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Attachments for Theater-Seats; and we do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
Our present invention has for its object to provide an improved attachment adapted for the application to the backs of theater-seats and elsewhere; and to this end it consists of the novel devices and combinations of devices hereinafter described, and defined in the claims.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like characters indic-ate like parts throughout the several views.
Figure 1 is a View in side elevation showing the improved attachment applied to the back of a theater-seat, some parts being broken away and some parts being sectioned. Fig. 2 shows the attachment in rear elevation, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal Section on the line .fc3 of Fig. 1. A
The numeral 1 indicates a portion of the back of a theater-seat to which a disk-like base 2 is rigidly secured by screws or otherwise. One member of a split clamping-head 3 4 is swiveled at 5 to the base 2. The two members of the said split clamping-head are drawn together by a clamping-screw 6, which, as shown, is screw-threaded through one of the members and works loosely through the other member, having a shouldered end 6 for action thereon. At its other end said screw is provided with a knurled head 6b, by means of which it may be turned with considerable force. At their outer extremities the sections 3 4 are formed with cooperating half-sockets which are adapted to clamp the ball or head 7 of a rod 8. The edges of the half-sockets are spaced apart at 9, so as to leave a vertical slot, permitting the rod 8 to be swung pivotally in a vertical plane. At its free end the rod 8 is provided with a bearing 10, in which is loosely Journaled the axial stem 11 of a rotatable disk-like head or holder 12. On one face the head 12 is formed or provided with a relatively small disk-like hub 13, which preferably holds a looking-glass 14. The peripheral portion of the hub 18 extends concentric to the peripheral portion of the holder 12 and cooperates with an inturned marginal iiange 15 thereof to hold segmental cards in position on the front face of the holder. On the back of the holder 12 is a still smaller hub or flange 16, which cooperates with an inturned marginal tlange17 of the holder 12 to hold the cards e', such as are shown in Fig. 2, applied to the front 'face of the holder.
Advisably a coat or hat hook 18 is used in connection with the device described, and this hook may be conveniently supported with freedom for pivotal movement on a vertical axis by means of a pair of bearings 19 20, the former of which is shown as rigid on the base 2.
In practice it is intended to print advertising matter on the cards z, or, if desired, alternate cards may be printed with advertising matter and the intermediate cards with the program or other' matter of interest.
The looking-glass is, as is evident, conveniently located for use by an occupant of the seat just back of the seat to which the attachment is applied.
The rotating holder 12 is capable of a great many different movements. In the first place, it may, of course, be rotated on its spindle11. In the second place` it may be oscillated in a Vertical plane, as indicated by full and dotted lines in Fig. 1. In the third place, it'may be rotated or turned over on the axis of the rod 8, .under which movement the ball 7 turns freely in the socket of the swiveled head 3 4, and, in the fourth place, the device may be turned on the axis of the swiveled head 3 4. This latter pivotal movement permits the device to swing in case a coat, cloak, or other article of wearing-apparel should be caught on the head of the same. The hook 18 when not in use may be turned against the back of the seat. By clamping the sections of the head 3 4 onto the ball 7 of the rod 8 theholder 12 may be set at any one of several different positions. The dotted lines in Fig. 1 show the position in which the holder may be conven- IOO iently held with the looking-glass 14 in convenient position Vfor use b y a person seated in the seat just back thereof.
From what has been said it will be understood that the device described is capable of modification Within the scope of our invention as herein set forth and claimed.
Vhat We claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is as follows:
1. In a device of the character described, the combination with a split clamping-socket swiveled on a horizontal axis, of an arm having at one end a ball Working in said socket, said arm having an oscillatory movement from a vertical to a horizontal position, and a holder applied to the free end of said arm, and provided with means for holding cards, substantially as described.
2. In a device of the character described, a support having' a split clamping-socket, an
arm having at one end, a ball Working in said socket, said arm having au oscillatory and rotary movement,.and a rotating holder carried v by the free end of said arm and provided with means for holding cards or similar devices, substantially as described. y
3. In a device of the character described, the combination with a swiveled support having a clamping-socket, of an arm having at one end a ball Working in said socket, said arm having an oscillatory and rotary movement, and a holder rotatively mounted on the free end of said arm and provided on both faces with means for holding cards and having on one face a looking-glass', substantially as described.
In testimony whereof We aiiX our signatures 1n presence of two witnesses.
JOHN A. OLSON.
