' j ALBERT E. 31mm, or HUBBARD, IOWA.
BED-SPRING;
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 540,776, dated June 11, 1895 Serial lie. 543,865. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, ALBERT E. BEALL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hubbard, inthe county of Hardin and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Bed- Spring, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to bed Springs, and particularly to spacing Wires or braces employed for holding the parts of contiguous springs in their proper relative positions, the
object in View being to provide a simple and eflicient device of the class named which may be applied with facility and which will hold the springs in their proper positions without interfering with the freedom of movement thereof, the connections between said wires or braces and the springs being noiseless in use.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will appear in the following description, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure l is a plan view of a portion of a spring-bed constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a partial longitudinal section of the same on the plane indicated by the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail view, in perspective, of a joint be tween one of the spacing wires or braces and the connected portions of the springs. Fig. 4 is a detail view, in perspective, of one of the spacing wires or braces.
Similar numeralsof reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawlugs.
I have shown my present invention as applied to the forinof spring illustrated in my former patent, No 514,898, granted February 20, 1894.. Each spring comprises angularlydisposed upper and lower arms 1 and 2 connected by an interposed integral coil 3 and having terminal coils 4, and upper and lower parallel extensions 5 and 6 which extend 1ongitudinally of the bed-bottom and terminate, respectively, in coils 7. This arrangement brings the coils 7 of one spring contiguous to the coils at of the adjacent spring, and the object of my present invention is to provide means for connecting said coils 4 and 7 and at the same time bracing the same laterally to prevent deflection. The means which I employ for this purpose are the spacing wires or braces 8 provided at suitable intervals correspondingwith the intervals between the series of springs in the bed-bottom with contiguous hooks 9 and 10 disposed, respectively, in vertical and horizontal planes and formed by loops ll which are integral with and arranged atintermediate points of the spacing wires or braces. The hook 9 is formed between the upper side of the loop and the contiguous portion of the spacing wire or brace by bending said loop in a direction parallel with said contiguous portion of the wire or brace, and the hook 10 is formed by bending the extremity of the loop upon itself,as shown clearly in Fig. 4.
The hook 9 is engaged with one of the contiguous coils of the springs. The hooklO is engaged with the other of said coils, and the shank of said hook 10 passes through both of the coils, and by forcing or bending the book 10 down upon' the coil with which it is engaged the joint may be tightened sufficiently to prevent rattling and insure the proper relative positions of the parts without interfering with the vertical movement of the connected coils when in use.
Various changes in the form,-proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing'any of the advantages of the invention. 3
Having described my invention, what I claim is- 1. Aspacing wire or brace for spring bedbottoms, the same being provided at intervals with integral loops arranged approximately parallel with the contiguous portions of the wire or brace and bent upon themselves at their extremities to form contiguous hooks 9 and 10 arranged, respectively, in vertical and horizontal planes, substantially as specified.
2. In a spring bed-bottom, the combination with springs having contiguous coils, of spacing wires or braces provided at intervals with contiguous hooks 9 and 10 engaging said coils,
respectively, the hooks being formed by loops In testimony that I claim the foregoing as extended approximately parallel with the myown I have hereto afiixed my signature in Wires or braces and doubled upon themselves the presence of two witnesses.
at their extremities, whereby theintermediate ALBERT E. BEALL portion of the loop extends through both of Witnesses;
said contiguous coils, substantially as speci- J. K. MILNER,
fied. C. F. SKELLENGER.
