JOHN G. SCOTT, OF STILLMAN VALLEY, ILLINOIS.
METAL BEDSTEAD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 28, 1908.
Application filed October 28, 1907. Serial No. 399,562.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN C. SCOTT, a citizen oi the United States, residing at Stillman Valley, in the county of Ogle and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful 1m rovements in Metal Bedsteads, of-
which t e following is a specification.
This invention is applicable particularly to metal bedsteads, and comprises improved means for supporting the hangers or slats on which the springs rest, a particular feature being the use of slotted tubular side rails, with slats, the ends of which rojectin the slots and are providedwith lieads located within the rails, which prevent the slats from escaping or becoming disconnectedfrom the rails.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a detail in elevation, showing part of one corner post of the bedstead and part of one of the rails. Fig. 2 is a sectional view showing one end of a slat and the manner in which it is held within the rails. Fig. 3 is a side view of oneof the slats.
In the drawings, 6 indicates the bed post and 7 the rail. This rail is tubular, and has a longitudinal slot 9 extending from one end to the other thereof. and which is presented or opens on the inner side of the rail, that is, the side toward the springs. The rail is connected to the post by means of a tee 13 which has a stem 12 fitting within the end of the tube 7, where it is fastened by a pin 11 which extends through suitable holes in the tube and in the stern. By knocking the pin out, the rail and post can be readily separated.
One of the slats is illustrated in Fig. 3 and consists of a single strip or bar of metal, bent. to form a bottom portion 8 and upright arms 14 at the upper end of which are horizontal outwardly extending portions 15 which extend through the slots 9 and terminate in enlarged blocks or heads 16 which will fit within the rails, but are wider than the slots therein. The hanger is made of a flat metal bar with the lower or cross portion thereof standing edgewise, and twisted one quarter around, as indicated at 17, so that the vertical arms are presented flat-wise toward the springs which will be supported on the hangers in the usual manner.
By disconnecting the rails from the posts at one end and slipping the heads 16 of the slats into the ends of the rails and moving the slats along the slots to the desired position, itis then impossible for the slats to become accidentally disconnected, the heads serving to retain and support the same. The rails are shown as circular tubes, as being the most appropriate for the purpose, but obviously other shapes may be used.
The device has the advantage of neatness of appearance, since there are no projecting ends .of the slats, but they are concealed within the rails, leaving a smooth or regular surface along the rail. The slats may be removed when desired by disconnecting the rails at one end and sliding the slats out the ends of the slots.
I claim:
1. A bedstead having tubular rails with slots therein, and slats the ends of which extend through the slots and are provided with retaining devices within the rails.
2. A bedstead having slotted tubular rails, and slats supported by the rails and extending at their ends into the slots.
3. A bedstead having tubular rails with longitudinal slots and slats the ends of which extend through the slots and have enlargements within the rails preventing with: drawal of said ends through the slots.
4. A bedstead having posts, tubular rails with longitudinal slots, slats extending through the slots and provided with heads within the rails, and corner'fastenings between the posts and the rails, closing the ends of the latter.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
- JOHN C. SCOTT.
