C@ c) g Y Tr n c "3 .'f!" i atenei tatt @attentif-fm. sfr ""W meeneem mf v GE ORGE INWOOD, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CA LIFORNI. v Letters` Patent No. 88,298, dated Mtr/rch 30, 1869. I
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE Inwoon, of the city and county of San Francisco, State of California, have invented a Device for Securing Bed-Clothes; 'and I do hereby declare the following descriptionrand accompanying drawings areA snfiicientto enable any person skilled in the art or science to which. it most nearly` appertains, to make and use my said invention or improvements without further invention or experiment.
Hy invention relates to a device for securing bedclothes on beds, cribs, cradles, and couches of all kinds, so as to prevent the persons sleeping under them from getting uncovered by any means; and
It consist-s in adding to the sides of' the bedsteads an additional rail, and placing movable bars joined together by means of metal rods, passing through the upper, or additional slats, one above, and the other below it, so, that they may be raised and 1owered,'and confined in any position desired by means of set-screws.
The covers a're drawn under the lower movable rail, which is then forced down upon the lower bed-rail, vand held by the screws, confining the covers, so that they cannot be taken oif without iirst releasingr them from their confinement. v
In cribs and cradles, the place ofthe additional rail 4is supplied by the surrounding double rail, between which the vertical bars, or slats are placed.
To more fully illustrate and explain my invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawings, and letters marked thereon, of which- Figure l is a side elevation.
Figure 2 is an 'end sectional view.
Similar letters of referencein each of the gures indicate like parts.
A is the lower side rail ,of a childs crib.
B and C are the double rails, between which the vertical standards a a are placed. These parts are common to cribs ot' this description, and therefore need not be altered when it is desired to add my device to the crib.
My device consists in placing upon the lower bed-rail A, the short barD, and upon the rail C, the full-length bar E, vand joiningr them together by rods b b b. These rods pass through the double rails B and C, and at their upper end, where they pass through the rail C, they are ilattened, as seen at b, working in a square hole in the upper rail. A
By raising the upper har, E, the lower one', D, is also raised, until it strikes the lower ofthe double rails, B, leaving a space between it and the lower bed-rail A,
through which the covers may be drawn, after the oc.
cupant has been placed under them, and the bars let down, and forcedtightly upon them, and secured by set-screws c, so that itis impossible to remove the c overs without irst releasing and raising the bars.`
Small projections, c' i, are placed ou theV bar D, at eacli end, and prevent it from coming closely against the rail B, when it is drawn up.
. By the use of this device, children can be prevented from kicking the covers off them, or getting them 0E in any manner, and thus avoid many of the unhealthy consequences of lying naked. v
Common bedsteads can be provided with the same device, by placing an extra side rail above the ordinary side rail, and passing the connecting-rods th rough them, thus making a bedstead that will be especially useful for hospitals, and places where iuvalids are kept, as by its use the liability of their becoming chilled, by getting the covers off them, and many lingering ills, which tinally result iu consumption, are avoided Having thus described myinvention,
WVhat I claim, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
lhe elamping-bar D, when held and operated by rods b, sliding in or upon the lxed rail or rails of the bedstead, and secured at the proper point by the seti -screws c, substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
GEORGE INWOOD., [1.. s.] iiitnesses:
J. L. BOONE, A. H. HALE.
