UNITED STATES PATENT, O IcE.
WILLIAM MORE, OF NEW roams. Y,
IMPROVEMENT m RbCKlNG-CHAIRS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 136,086, dated Feb ua y 3, 1373- body of the chair removed, showing my improvement. Fig. 3 is a sectional elevation of part of the chair, showing the inside of the rockers with my-improvement drawn in.
My invention relates to an improvement in rocking-chairs, and consists in providing the rockers with afoot-board which shall move with the chair and project from the front part of the rockers in such a manner that it may be pushed back or drawnout at the pleasure ofthe occupant. The object of this-improvement is to provide a rest for the feet with greater comfort to the person in the chair, to increase the facilities for rocking, and remove a the discomfort and inconveniences heretofore experienced by foot-boards that project and obstruct the free space about the chair.
length. There is oneqof these extensions at- ,tached to the inside of each rocker, and sliding backward and forward thereon with perfect freedom. A guide, D, as shown in Fig. 3, is
scribed and set forth.
attached to each rocker B, which fills up part of the horizontal slot E; and prevents D from being displaced, at the same time giving Ga good bearing to slide upon. Attached to each rocker B, directly over the rear end of D, is a piece of wood or metal, e, projecting over the top of 0, through which a thumb-screw, a,
runs, by which means the arrangement of the foot-board, when once projected, can be held firmly in position at any desired point, the
" end of a pressing downward on the top of G.
Attached to D, by a screw,'is a square washer, b, which prevents G from slipping laterally oft D in case of any unusual strain. At the forward end of the slides or extensions 0 is the foot-board O, fastened at each end to one of the slides 0. At the rear end of O is a stretcher, f, which, like the foot-board, serves to keep, the slides G infirm contact with the rocker B, aided as it is by the washers b, also servingthe same purpose.
It will be observed that the extension can.
be pushed in or out at pleasure, and when out it can be fastened by the set-screw a in such a manner that the feet of the person in the chair will not cause it to move. On unscrewing a the extension may be pushed back by the foot, and the space occupied on the floor by the chair is no greater than that of any ordinary rocking-chairs. I do not, however, confine myself to any special curvesfor the rockers, or to any distinct form of the chair.
What I here claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- A rocking-chair, in combination with the extension (3 0, foot board 0, set screw a, washer b, and metallic or wooden piece 0, substantially as and for the purposes herein de- WM. MOHR.
