HUGH QUINN, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No: 567,656, dated September 15, 1896.
` Application nea May 1,1895. serait-0. 547,771. un model.)
- To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, HUGH QUINN, of Boston, county of Suffolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Removable Spring-Supporting Frames for Iron Bedsteads, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.
Iron or metallic bedsteads, as usually constructed, consist of end frames corresponding to the head and foot boards of an ordinary bedstead, connected by suitable iron side members'or rails. Because of the absence of cross-slats or other suitable supports the use of suspended springs of woven-wire or link type is necessary with these bedsteads, such springs being supported solely at their ends by the end frames of the bedstead.
The object of this invention is to provide a suitable removable supporting-frame adapted to rest upon and be supported by the metallic side members of the bedstead and to furnish a suitable support for any kind of a mattress-supporting spring or mattress.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section of a usual metallic bedstead provided with a removable spring-supporting frame embodying my invention; Fig. 2, a top or plan View, partially broken away, of the removable frame shown in Fig. l; and Fig. 3, a cross-section taken on the dotted line was, Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings, A A are the two end frames of the bedstead, corresponding, respectively, to the usual head and `foot boards, the same being connected in suitable manner by the side frames or members a a, shown as and usually angle or channel irons, the end frames being also preferably provided with like ironsa. It is evident that there is no support for the middle of an ordinary bedspring or mattress. Hence in bedsteads of this type it is customary to employ the suspended springs connected only to the end frames. To obviate this difficulty, I have provided a supporting-frame B, shown as consisting of two side members b b, connected by the cross members or slats b', the side members b, as herein shown and preferably, being adapted to rest upon the tops of the side rails et of the bedstead, and provided with depending stops b2, which, as shown, drop inside the said side rails and prevent lateral displacement of the removable spring-frame, although said stops may be at theoutside of said side rails, as shown in dotted lines. At their upper sides the side members b are shown providedlwith the vertical guard-flanges b3 to prevent accidental displacement of the usual mattresscarrying spring-frame S, of suitable construction, adapted to rest upon and be supported by the side members b and their connecting slats or bars b. By the use of a removable frame B, such as herein described, any desired spring may be used upon any metallic bedstead, and Whenever it is desired to remove the spring or to change springs, or for cleaning purposes, the spring-frame Bis readily removable, it being constructed of Wood, and therefore so light that it may be easily handled by any person.
So far as known to me I am the first to provide a metallic bedstead with a removable supportin g-frame, as herein set forth, to adapt the bedstead for use in connection with any of the prevailing types of mattress-carrying springs or to support a mattress without any spring.
I claiml. The combination with the end bedsteadframes and side rails connecting the same, of
a removable supporting frame comprising connected longitudinal side members arranged to rest upon and along the said side rails, said frame being provided with stops to prevent lateral displacement therefrom, and adapted to receive the ordinary springs and mattress, substantially as. described.
2. The combination with the end frames of a bedstead, and the connecting side rails or members, of a removable spring-supporting frame adapted to rest upon and be supported by the said side rails, and provided at its under side with stops to prevent displacement of the said removable frame, and at its upperside with stops to prevent displacement of the springs or mattress when placed upon the said removable frame, substantially as described.
3. The herein-described removable supporting-frame adapted to be placed on ordinary IOO bedsteads, the same Consisting of side mem- In testimony whereof 4I have signed my bers, adapted to rest on and along the sides name to Ihis specification in the presence of of the bedsead, connecting and supporting two subscribing Witnesses.
members, flanges at the upper sides of Ishe HUGH QUINN. said side members, and stops at the under Nfitnesses: sides of the same, to operate, substantially FREDERICK L. EMERY,
as and for the purpose described. EMMA J. BENNETT.
