W/TNESSES I W74? A TTOHNE YS UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
COMBINED SEWING-MACHINE COVER AND CHAIR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec.:31, 1907.
Application filed May 22.1907. Serial No. 374.999.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH TWINEM, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Combined Sewing-Machine Cover and Chair, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to an improved device adaptable for use in covering the operat ing parts of a sewing machine or other similar mechanism, and having combined therewith means whereby the base of the cover serves as a support for a chair adapted to be used by the operator of the machine when the cover is removed.
The invention consists in certain features of construction and combinations of parts, all of which will be fully set forth hereinafter and particularly pointed out in the claims.
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, and in which Figure l is a perspective view of a device constructed in accordance with my invention and applied to a sewing machine or other similar mechanism; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the device in the position occupied while used as a chair, a portion thereof being broken away; and Fig. 8 is a transverse section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
In the specific form of my invention illustrated in the accompanying drawings, I employ a cover of the desired size and form for completely inclosing and concealing the parts of the machine above the table thereof. As illustrated, the cover comprises solid end portions 10 of wood or other similar material and connected together at the bottom by base rails 11. The sides and curved top 12 are formed of sheet metal, which is secured to the ends and base rails in any suitable manner. The sheet metal forming the rear side above one base rail is bent inward to provide a recess extending directly upward from the upper surface of the base rail and hinged to said rail, and adapted to fit within this recess is a board 13 forming the main support for the chair and extending upward to form the back 14. Hinged to the back at a point intermediate its ends is the seat 15 movable to a position at right angles to the back or to a position in engagement with the upper por- 1 tion of the back, as is clearly illustrated in the drawings. For supporting the seat, suitable brackets 16 are provided, which brackets are preferably hinged to the back below the seat and movable to a position in engagement with the back, as illustrated in Fig. 1, or to a position at right angles thereto and in engagement with the under side of the seat, as indicated in Fig. 2. Any suitable means, as, for instance, hooks 17, may be employed for preventing undue outward movement of the brackets 16, and also serving to engage with eyes upon the top of the cover to hold the back of the chair in the proper position when in use.
When the cover is employed upon a machine, as illustrated in Fig.1, the hooks 17 are unfastened and the back swung backward and downward to a position behind the machine and normally concealed from view. The seat is folded against the back and the brackets are also folded inward toward each other and in engagement with the back. The device at this time occupies the minimum amount of space, and as the chair portions extend downwardbehind the machine, they do not detract from the appearance of the machine or interfere with the free movement of the latter from place to place.
When it is desired to use the sewing machine, the cover is removed and the parts folded to the position illustrated in Fig. 2. The base of the cover, including the lower portions of the ends 10 and the base rails 11, form a large support for the chair, and the hooks 17 serve to hold the back in a substantially vertical position.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. In a device of the class described, the combination of a cover adapted for use in connection with sewing machines, said cover having arectangular base, a chair back hinged to said base at the rear side thereof and adapted to be held in a substantially upright position with the cover as a support or to depend therefrom, a chair seat pivotally connected to said back intermediate its ends, and means for supporting said seat in a substantially horizontal position over the cover when the chair back is held upright, said seat being movable to a position in engagement with said back when the back is in its depending position. I 3 2. In a device of the class described, the
combination of a cover adapted for use in connection with sewing machines, said cover having solid ends and side rails connecting said ends, a chair back hinged to one of said side rails and adapted to be supported in a substantially upright position upon said side rail, means for connecting said back and said cover to hold them rigid in respect to each other, a chair seat pivotally connected to said back, and brackets on said back for supporting said seat in a substantially horizontal position over the body of the cover. 1
3. A device of the class described, com prising a cover adapted for use in connection with sewing machines, said cover having a 15 rectangular base, a chair back hinged to said base at the rear side thereof and adapted to be held in a substantially upright position with the cover as a support or to depend therefrom, and a chair seat pivotally c0n- 20 nected to said back intermediate its ends.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOSEPH TWINEM.
