SLIDING-SHOE FURNITURE ATTACHMENT.
Specification of Lezters Patent.
Patented May 31, 1910.
Application led March 7, 1910. Serial No. 547,730.
.To ah' whom it 'may concern: y
Be, 1t known that I, lViLLIAM DICHMAN N,
a citizen of the United States, and resident of Oshkosh, in the county of Vv'innebago and State of fisconsiin have invented certain new and useful.Improvements in Sliding- Shoe Ilurniture Attachments; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention consists in what is herein particularly set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the claim of this specification, its object being to provide simple, economical, antifrictiou and noiseless sliding-shoe attachments for furniture etc.
Figure 1 of the drawings represents a vertical transverse sectional View of one of my improved sliding shoe attachments in connection with a tubular furniture post; Fig. 2, an elevation of the Aattachment as aforesaid, the furniture post being in section and a grip-spring of said attachment partly broken away, and Fig. 3, a plan view partly in section on the plane indicated by line 3 3 in Fig. 1, a cap shown in this view being partly broken away. c
Referring by numerals to the drawings 4 indicates a flat-bottom disk having a preferably curved rim and an upper central hol-y low boss 5, the disk being preferably of glassA or glazed earthenware, and constituting a sliding shoe of my improved furniture attachment. The hollow boss of the disk constitutes a flat bottom vertical wall socket for the lower shouldered end of a stem 6, and in screw threaded or otherwise preferably detachable connection with said boss is a cap 7 having a central aperture through which the ,stem extends. From the foregoing it will be understood` that the lower end of the stem has loose sliding contact with the bottom of the socket portion of the disk. The
lowermost shoulder 8 of the stem 6 serves as a stop in opposition to the cap 7 to prevent a separation of the disk 4 from said stem, and the other stem-shoulder 9 serves as a support for a detachable seat 10 upon which to rest a tubular bedpost or other furniture leg 11.
i That portion of the stem between its shoulders 8 and 9 has loose play in the central aperture of the cap 7, and said stem, cap and disk may, for some usages, complete my improved attachment, in whichy there is free rocking and sliding movement between the disk and stem. Incidental to rocking motion of the stein G on the bottom of the socket provided for same, the friction between said stem and disk is lessened in proportion tothe tilt of the aforesaid stem, this being an important fea-ture of my invention.
The seat 10 supports a bowed plate 12lof sprin metal provided witlia cent-ral aperture or the passage of. the stem 6, the ends of said plate or spring being upwardly extended. Another bowed spring met-al plate 13 is provided with a cent-'ral aperture for the passage of the stem 6, and it is held on the screw-threaded upper portion of said stem by nuts 14 and 15, the'ends of this plate or spring 12 being downwardly extended to lap the ends of the former spring a sufficient distance, both springs being under compression in the tubular leg 11 to hold the attachment as a whole in detachable connection therewith. By adjusting the spring 13, on the stem 6, its lap of the spring 12 may be varied to increase or diminish the stiffness of the two springs with respect to the aforesaid tubular device.
I claim:
A sliding shoe attachment forfurniture etc., comprising a disk havin a central socket, a stem the lower end o which has loose sliding contact with the bottom of said socket, and a centrally apertured socket-cap 'with the stem, said stem being provided with a lower shoulder in opposition to the underside of the cap. l
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand'at Oshkosh in the county of Winnebago and State of Wisconsin in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM DICHMANN. Witnesses:
C. A. WAKEMAN, W. F. GRUENEWALD.
