Definitions

  • My invention relates to improvements in hanging or hammock seats, the sitting surface hanging on springs being made to pass over broad, padded, revolving bolsters, with a view of obtaining a soft resilient seat and lessening the wear of the fabric.
  • Figure 1 shows a side elevation of a folding easy chair
  • Figure 2 is a cross-section through the revolving bolster, showing the hammock partly removed.
  • a collapsible frame generally designated 1 is employed and embodies pairs of crossed supporting members the lower portion of which constitute legs being connected together by cross members 1 while the upper portions of the supporting members are connected together by cross members 2 formed by broad revolving bolsters each comprising a wooden cylindric roller 3 having at each end a disc 4, padding 5, an iron rod 6 pass ing through the roller 3 and fixed to the frame 1 by nuts.
  • the bolsters revolve on rods 6.
  • the hammock 7 Over said bolsters and overlapping padding 5 is passed the hammock 7, which is kept stretched laterally by rods 8 having eyes 9 and is suspended on spiral springs 12 connected to the leg portions of the main supporting members of the frame. Between the back spiral springs and rod 8 passing through eye 9 is interposed a strap 10 having a shifting-buckle 11.
  • the padding alone should not carry the full weight of the occupants body, as this would cause it to be pressed out of shape and thereby to become hard and lose its resilience.
  • the hammock is made to overlap the padding for about one inch or more and to rest on the discs 4, which being solid take the major part of the strain off the padding.
  • the hammock seat as described is not only limited to folding easy chairs, deck chairs, couches, etc.; the device may also be used for furniture, such as mattresses, stretchers, etc. While I have shown and described the invention in detail it is understood, that variations as to mechanical equivalents of parts shall be within the scope of my invention.
  • a folding frame including crossed supporting members the lower portions of which constitute legs, cross members connecting the legs, a pair of rotatably padded bolsters forming the upper cross members of the frame and connected with the upper ends of the supporting members, a hammock freely trained over the bolsters, and resilient means connecting the respective ends of the hammock to the leg portions of the cross members of the frame.
  • a folding frame including a pair of rotatable bolsters forming the cross members thereof and each consisting of a supporting rod mounted in the frame, a roller rotatable on the rod, padding surrounding the roller and discs carried by the ends of the roller and confining the padding, a hammock trained over the bolsters, and resilient means connecting the respective ends of the hammock to the frame.
  • a folding frame including a pair of bolsters constituting the upper cross members of tlie frame each bolster including a supporting rod fixed in the frame, a cylindrical roller rotatable about the rod, padding surrounding the roller and discs carried by the ends of the roller and confining the pad, a hammock trained over the bolsters being wider than the padding and engaging the discs so as to relieve the major part of the strain from the padding, spiral springs for con- 10 neeting the respective ends of the hammock to the frame, and an adjusting means for the hammock interposed between the springs and the hammock, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
