. SPECIFICATION forming part of Reis'sned Letters Patent No. 10,220, dated October 24, 1882 I .Original No. 135,725, dated February 11, 1873. Application for reissue filed September 6, 1882.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, HARRIsoN Our-onuand ANDREW WLKENDRrm both citizens of the United States, residing respectively at Richmond and Brooklyn, in the counties ot' spring mattress complete; Fig. 2, a plan or top view thereof; Fig. 3,-aperspective view of a modified form of a spring detached; Fig.

4, another view of a spring detached. Fig. 5 represents a group of four springs, composed of the modification shown in Fig. 3 and attached to each other by the hooks and eyes, hereinafter described. Figs fi and 7 represent modified methods of forming the eyes in the sprin gs.

The object of our invention is to construct a spring-mattress, or mattress and bolster combined, composed entirely of metal springs, so that they may be securely and firmly attached to' each other to form a soft, elastic, light, and noiseless mattress, or mattress and bolster combined, that may be used either side up, rolled together or bent in any desired shape to forni a bed, and that it may be readily repaired or new springs inserted.

,Our invention relates, first, to the peculiar manner of forming the eyes on the coils coinposing a spring-mattress and securing to the jthe springs are made to retain'theln inshape by hooks formed on the ends of the coil; second, in lengthening the springs of which the mattress is composed at one end so as to form A, Fig. 2, represents a top view of the springs, with their eyes and hooks, of our mat- "tress. i.

'D are eyes formed in the outside coils of the springs byerossing the wire .to receiv.e the hooks C on the sides of the adjacent springs,

.which hooks are formed as shown in the drawings. These eyes hold the ends of the wire of lent to a hook in the end thereof, thus uniting sired, because of the Facility in the manufacwhich the springs are composed, the ends of the wire having hooks formed on them, which are clasped permanently into the eyes to pre vent the mattress'saggin g, inclining sidewise, or drawing part.- i

As a mod ficatiou of this mode of fastening the ends of the wire of whieh the springs are formed, it may be wrapped around the coils, commencingat one side and extending overand around the hook, which would be equivathe springs and forming a durable and perfect mattress. v v

To form a combined mattress and bolster, one or more rows of springs at one end of the body of the mattress are made'suiiiciently long 5 to elevate the head to the required height, as

represented in the drawings.

These springs are specially adapted to sofas and chairs and wherever spring-seats are deture and their durability.

Having thus fully. described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A mattress thesprings of which are formed with hooks and eyes of the last coils thereof when the ends of the wire forming the coils are secured'to or around the eyes, substantially in the manner and for the purposes herein set forth.

2. A mattress constructed of the springs, as described, with a head or bolster elevation formed by graduating the springs at the head.

3. A wire spring having-an eye, D, formed on its outer coil, secured to the end of the wire of which the spring is made to retain said spring in shape and p reventsagging,substantially as specified.

In testimony whereof we afiix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
