Patented July 31, 190e.
Application filed Ielar11ar;\;f 2, 1906. Serial No. 299,097-
To a/ZZ whom it muy con/cern: v l Be it known that I, ADELAIDE SOPHIA TURNER, a subject of the King of Great Britain and Ireland, and a resident of London, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Armpit-Crutches for Bed-RestsA and Chair-Backs, (for which I have filed an application for patent in Great Britain, No. 14,752, dated July 18,'19055) IO full, clear, and exact description of the same. This invention relates to armpit-crutches adjustably applicable to bed-rests, chairbacks, and the like and serving to support a patient reclining against the bed-rest or sit- Y ting in a chair at and under the armpits.
On the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective view showing part of a bed-rest frame and an adjustable arm-` zo pit-crutch a plied thereto. Fig. 2 represents a sectional e evation, and Fig. 3 represents a sectional plan.
a represents Ipart of the front frame of, say, a bed-rest adapted tobeset in .inclined relation to the bed in a customary manner. b represents the crutch, which has a rigid frame b, well padded to fit under without irritating the' armpit and is adapted to be set and held at any desired height of the frame c and at any desired distance inward of the frame to which it is applied, so that when two crutches are applied tothe opposite sides of the frame they may be set at any de-l sired distance apart or otherwise, according to the build, habit, or desire of the patient. Each crutch is secured, as at c', to a dovetailed slide-bar c, which works between dovetailed slide-guides d and through a dovetailed guide-slot d2 of a carrier d and has a 4ostop c2 serving to limit its inward movement. The carrier is made as a clamp with opposite and I do hereby declare the following to be a.
parts d3 d4, adapted to embrace the frame a, and is fitted with a thumb-screw e, having a head e adapted to clamp the frame a between itself and the clamp' part d3 and also 45 the slide-bar between the frame a and the part cl3. A pair of such crutches applied to the sides of the back of a bed-rest or chair enable the patient to be supported comfortably in a nearly upright position with the 5o chest kept well expanded and the weight bearing on the lower part of the body considerably reduced and avoid the inconveniences incidental to the use of pillows and the like yielding supports for propping up the patient, which need constant attention to keep to secure by Letters Patent, is-
' In an armpit-crutch for a bed-rest chair or 6o like support, in combination, a crutch and a crutch-carrier, the crutch having attached to it inlateral relation a dovetailed slide-bar having an end stop, and the carrier having dovetailed slide-guides and a dovetailed guide-slot adapted to guide the slide-bar and to limit its movement, opposite clamp parts in osition.
lllhat I claim as my invention, and desireY adapted to'embrace a supporting-frame, and
a thumb-screw tted to one clamp part and adapted to clamp the frame against the other 7o clamp part and the slide-bar between the frame and said clamp part so as to locate the crutch in the carrier and the carrier on the supporting-frame each as desired by one and .the same means and the same action thereof, 7 5 asset forth. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my handin the'presenceof two witnesses.
