Description
THOMAS W. DVRAPER, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
HMMOCK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 8, 1908.
Application led March 23, 1908. Serial No. 422,740.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS W. DRAPER, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain Im rovements -in Hammocks, of
-which the fo lowing is a specification..
This invention is designed to provide an improved hammock which the occupant can clination sidebars 1 ends of the swing with a slight movement of the foot and which has convenient means for adjustment, to'accommodate the occupants size and inand .for ready handling and ship- Pmg- In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective viewof a hammock embody,- ing my invention; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a second form; and Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a third form.
As illustrated in Fig. lkthe hammock has al main framecomprisinghe substantially horizontal side bars 1 connected together by the cross bars 2; the inclined side bars 3 con-l nected together by thecross bar 4 and to the by the hin es 5; and the side bars 6 connected to the sic? and to the side bars 3 by the bolts 8. An auxiliaryframe, consisting of the side b ars 9 connected at their outer ends by the cross bar 10, has the inner ends of its side bars fulcrumed by the bolts 1l on the inner sides of the bars 1 so that it will swing within the inclined part of the main frame and be supportable at various elevations by a rod 12 which is adapted for engagement in notches 13 of the incllned part o the main frame. A bail 14, having the intles 15 which engage the outer ars 3, is4 connected by a rope or tension member 16 with a beam 17,`to sup- )ort the head of the main frame. A bail 18,
aving the cross bar 19 adapted for receiving foot pressure and the pintles 20 adapted for engagement in the several notches 21 in the under side of the side bars main frame, is connected by a rope or tension member 22 with a beam 23, to support the foot of the main frame. A bottom 24, suitably of canvas, zontal part of the mainframe and to the auxiliary frame. -This arran ement ermits the occupant of the hammoc to rec 'ne at any angle desired, by reason of the adjustability of the auxiliary frame, and to swing the hammock by intermittent pressure with the toe u on the crossbar' therefore, while the inc ined members of the main frame serve as a e bars 1 by the bolts 7A at the foot of the is secured to the hori rest and guard for the side of the couch in addition to acting as a support.
modified by using a frame having the sections 25 and 26 connected by hinges 27 on the under sides thereof', and the section 28 connected to the section 26 by the hinges 29 on the tops thereof, the arrangement permittino' the parts to be folded together Within a smal compass. To hold the section 28 at the desired an le with relation to the section 26, when the ame is supported by the engagement of bails (such as shown in Fi 1) inthe bearings 30 and 31, hinges 32 are fixed to the lower part of the section 26 and engage the corresponding part of the auxiliary section 28. The hinges have thereinl the holes 33 which engagethe studs 34 carried Justable struts.
As shown in Fig.'3 there is employed a simplified construction comprising the sections 38 and 39 connected by hinges 4() on the top thereof, the section 39 having fixed thereto plates 41 which are adapted for engagement with the section 38 by removable pins 42, whereby the sections can be held in alinement for service or-folded one uponthe other for handling'. A further or auxiliary section 43 is connected to the end of the section 39 by a hinge 44 the hin e having fixed to the section 43 a segmenta taining holes 46 which move over ab plate 47 fixed to the section 39 and adapted to receive a pin 48 passed through one of the .holes in As shown in Fig. 2, the structure 'can be y plate con! the plate 45, whereby the section 43 can be can be pressed and rocked bythe toe of an occuiant to oscillatc-said ham-mock, an ad justa le auxiliary frame connected yto said said device having a part disposed so that it` rnme first named' and su porting mechanism connected to said auXi lary frame.
A hemmock having several bearings along its length end a supporting hail with pintles adapted for making e rocklnv engagement with said bearings, seid bail lhaving a part whereby it is engaged and rocked by on occupant to oscillate said hammock longi tudinelly.
3. A hammock having n frame comprising side bers having bearing notches 'thereunder et different; oints along its length1 in cornbnation Wit supporting mechanism cornprising a rocking device adapted 'for engage ment in said bearings.
e. A hammock having a. main frame, en
auxiliary frame adjustable to diierent angles with reference to seid main frame, means lfor holding seid auxiliary frame against movement in either direction et various angles with relation to said mein frame, and supporting mechanisms respectively Aengaging seid mein and auxiliary trames whereby an occupant can swing said hammock.
5. Ahammock having n mein freine comprising side'bsrs, a second set of side bers, erforated members hinged together and med to said side bars, and pins for fixing seid hinged members together and holding said inclined bars inthe desired relation, and sup orting hails having rocking connections Wit i the respective fra-mes.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my name this 21st day of March, A. D. 1908, in the presence of the subscribing witnesses.
