CARRIAGE-STANDARD.
TECIEECATION forming part of Le-tters'Patent No. 338,655, dated March 23. 1886.
Application tiled December 2, 1F95.
T0 all whom, t may con/cern:
Beit known that I, HENRY Brees, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Montpelier, in the county of Vashington and State of Vermont, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Carriage-Standards, and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to an improvementin that class of devices known as carriagestandards,7 and is more particularly adapted for use with childrens carriages having a square or canopy top.
The object ot the invention is to enable the top to be dropped in front of the seat or bchind it, or to be held inclined at any of the various possible angles, and yetto dispense with the necessity of locking the standard in the desired position by means of a device operated by hand, as is usual with most standards now in use; and my invention consistsin a standard preferably formed in two parts which are united by a connection such that while the lower part is fastened rigidly to the carriage body or seat the upper part may be moved backward or forward and held inclined at any angle under the pressure of a spring-friction clamp located at the said junction of the two parts of the standard.
In the annexed drawings, illustrating my invention, Figure l is a side elevation of my improved standard, showing the upper part thereof in an upright position, and also by dotted lines in an inclined position. Fig. 2 is avertical transverse section through the connection between the upper and lower parts of the standard. Fig. 3 is a detail view of the lower part, and Fig. 4 is a perspective of the spring-clamp.
Like letters of reference designatelike parts in the several views.
The standard-arm, designated bythe letters Aand D, may be made of any ornamental form, of light open work, if desired,as shown in the drawings, or of any other convenient pattern, and may be of metal or any other suitable niaserini Newman. (No model.)
terial. This arm is preferably constructed in two parts-an upper part, as A,and a lowerportion, as D. The upper part is to be fastened securely to the top of the carriage, while the lower part is to be affixed rigidly to the carriage body or seat. It is evident, however, that my standard may be composed of but a single arm, as A, lengthened sufficiently to extend from the top to the body or seat of the carriage; and in this case the part D will be entirely dispensed with, excepting its extreme upper portion, which serves in the first i11- stance to forni a part ofthe junction between the two arms, and which is now to be fastened to the carriage body or seat and so provide directly thereupon the joint which would othlerwise be situated midway of the arm, but
which has now been removed thence to the carriage body or seat.
The construction of thejoint between A and D is as follows: The arm D is fashioned in circular' forni at its upper end, said circular portion being provided in its interior with a circular iiange, e, as shown in Fig. 2. The up` per arin, A, is provided oli its lower end with a circular rim, which fits loosely over the flange e in such a manner that it can turn upon it. Therefore, in constructing the standard, the two parts A and Dare tirst to be put together, by inserting the flange e within the circular rim of theupperarin; then thespringclamp C is to beput into its position, as shown in Fig. 2. This clamp is represented in Fig. 4, and isa curved piece of spring metal, perforated with screw-holes a, if desired. 'It is located against the riin of the portion A, with its convcxity outward, so that the latter will bear against a cap-piece, B, which, as shown by Figs. 1 and 2, is placed against the circular rim outside the spring-clamp, and serves to complete the joint of the standard. This cap-piece is preferably circular in form, and may be made with ornainented open-work, to correspond with the rest of the standard.
The several parts of the joint-such as the cap B, clamp G, circular rim, and flanged portion D-are all secured together by rivets or screws b b, substantially in the manner il1ustrated. Thus it will be readily seen that inasmuch as the clamp O is constantly held rlnly against the rim of the upper part, A, the said upper part will be so secured that it IOO may be moved about its joint, either backward or forward, and yet the clamp will keep` it fixed in any inclined position desired.
Whenever it is so desired, the cap-piece B may be provided with lugs c c, which are so 1ocated as to t between lugs d d upon thestandard. This arrangement of lugs will serve to keep the cap-piece in a still firmer position than is attained by the use of screws alone.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a carriage standard, the combination of the canopy-supporting arm A, having a cir' HENRY BIGGS.
