FRANK e. JOHNSON, OF BROOKLY AND JOHN H. HAYWARD, OF NORTH-- FIELD, NEW YORK.
CANOPY FOR FOLDING STEAIVlER- CHAIRS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 270,224, dated January 9, 1883.-
Application filed October 13, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, FRANK G. JOHNSON and JOHN H. HAYWARD, citizens of the United States, residing respectively in the city of Brooklyn, in the county of Kingsand State of New York, and at Northfield, in the county of Richmond and Stateof New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in (Janopies for Folding Steamer-Chairs, of which the following is a specification.
The object of our invention is to increase the comfort of travelers upon Ocean, river, and other steamers, which we accomplish by providing for folding steamenchairs a detachable, adjustable, and folding hood, so arranged as to shield the head, neck, and shoulders of the occupants of such chairs from sun, rain, and wind. The style of hood we employ is the calash, in order that it may be folded back out of the way when not required and to economize space when it is packed away.
The peculiarity Ofour invention relates to the manner of attaching the hood toand removing it from the chair, and the manner of rendering it (the hood) adjustable, so as to protect the Occupant of the chairfrom the sun whatsoever may be the slant of its rays or the inclination of the back of the chair, and to suit it (the hood) to persons of different height, and to enable the occupant to be more or less shielded from observation while reading, musing, 85c.
' The following is a full, clear, andexact description of the construction and operation of our improvement, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a side view of the hood as seen on the chair; Fig. 2, a front view; Fig. 3, a partial side view enlarged, and Fi at a partial front view enlarged, through the line 00 x in Fig. 3.
Like letters refer to like parts.
A is an ordinary oalash-hood, and B B arethe side arms of the back of the chair.
0 is a metallic plate, sunken into and fast. enedon the side of the arm B. Through the center of the plate 0 is cut a longitudinal slot, 0', the upper end of which has a circular enlargement, c, Fig. 3, to admit the head 01 of the clamp-bolt d, Fig. 4. I
Underneath the slotted plate 0 the arm is cut away tomake room for the head (1 of the bolt 01, Fig. 4. The shoulder of the head of this clamp-bolt holds against and slides upon cl passes through the ends of the bows of the hood and plate 0, and by means of the binding-nut D, Fig. 4, the ends of the bows of the hood and .plate U are sufficiently bound together to keep the hood in any'desired position. By easing the binding-nuts 1) D, the hood can be closed and thrown over the back of the chair, out of the way, when not required.
hen the hood is spread, as seen in Fig. '1, itis evident thatit can be moved on the boltd (1, as the center of motion, so as to come forward until it strikes the back of the chair in front, or backward until it strikes the back of the chair in the rear, thus being adjustable to shield the head of 'the occupant .in all the difi'erent positions in which it may be placed by varying the inclination of the back B, and to afford protection from the sun from whatever direction its rays may come, be it from the horizon or zenith.
' To adjust the hood vertically to suit persons of different heights it is only necessary t-o'start the inner face of the plate 0. The clamp-bolt .5
back the binding-nuts D D and raise or lower and raise it until the heads cl d of the bolts d cl can pass out of the enlarged openings 0 0" of the slots 0 c.
Having thus described our invention, we do not claim broadly the method employed for attaching the hood to the chair, or the described means of rendering it adjustable horizontally or vertically, as we are aware that canopies and hoods of various kinds have been somewhat similarly applied to baby-carriages and other wagons; but 7 What we do claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a folding chair consisting of an X-framc, as shown in Fig. l of the drawings, a calash top or hood, A, in combination with the attaching, detaching, and adjusting devices, consisting of the slotted plate 0, having the enlarged opening 0", and the sliding clamp-bolts d d, and binding-nuts D D, all arranged substantially in the manner and for the purposes set forth.
