PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM E. DE VAULT, OF COLERAIN, OHIO.
EXTENSIBLE BED.
SPEGIFZGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 748,847, dated January 5, 1904. A plication filed September 23, 1903. Serial No 174,369. (No model.)
in all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM E. DE VAULT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Colerain, in the county of Belmont, State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Im: provements in Extensible Beds; and I do hereby declarethe following to be afnll, 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.
This invention relates to extensible bedsteads so constructed that they-may be adjusted to form either a single or a double bed, the object of the invention being to provide a construction which will be cheap and simple of manufacture, which will be rigid in both positions of its adjustment, and which may be easily and quickly manipulated.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be understood from the following description.
In the drawings forming a portion of this specification, and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views, Figure l is a perspective view showing a bedstead embodying the present invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the bedstead in closed position. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section through the headboard with the bedstead inextended position. Fig. 4: is a detail view of the folding brace at one end of the bedstead.
Referring now to the drawings, there is shown a bedstead comprising a headboard and a footboard, to which are connected side rails, which latter support slats in combination with a supplemental middle rail. The headboard comprises the two posts 5 and 6,
to whichare connected in the usualmanner the side rails 7 and 8, the latter being con nected also to the posts 9 and 10 of the footboard. The head and foot boards are similar in construction, so that a description of one will snffice for both. One post, which is the post 6 of the headboard, and the post 10 of the footboard, has attached thereto one member of the board consisting of spaced plates or planks 11 and 12, between which is received the single plate or plank 13 of the opposite post, the-plate or plank 13 being adapted to slide freely between the plates or planks 11 and 12, so that the posts of each board maybe moved toward or away from each other to reduce or increase the aggregate width of the board, there being between the plates or planks 11 and 12 a pocket 14, as illustrated.
Connecting the lower edges of the plates or planks 11 and 12 of the headboard with the corresponding platesor planks of the footboard are supplemental or intermediate rails 15 and 16, which extend longitudinally of the bedstead and which are designed to receive and support slats 1'7 and 18 in connection with the side rails8 and 7, respectively, when the bedstead is reduced in width, while the inner ends of the slats 18 are supported by the rail 16 when the bed is extended. The supplemental rail 16 has a supporting leg 19 at its middle point. As the side rails 7 and 8 are moved toward and away from each other the slats l8 slide transversely of the upper face of the supplemental rail 16.
Each of the corner posts of the bedstead is provided with ears 20, and to the ears of the .posts of the headboard are pivoted the brace members 21 and 22, which are connected at their opposite ends by means of a hinge 23, the mutually adjacent extremities of the members 2land 22 being beveledtransversely, so that said members will not aline, but will lie at a broad angle to each other when the sides of the bedstead are drawn outwardly to their limit, and when the sides are pressed toward each other the members will readily fold. These members serve to limit the extension of the bedstead, there being similar members designated by the same referencenumerals employed in connection with the footboard.
It will be understood that in practice modifications of the specific construction shown may be made and that any suitable materials and proportions may be used for the various parts without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What is claimed is An extensible bedstead comprising telescopic head and foot boards and connected side rails, supplemental longitudinal rails connected to corresponding head and foot board members at one side of the bedstead, a supporting-leg for one of said supplemental rails and slat-sections carried by the side In testimony whereof I affix my signature rails and resting upon the supplemental rails, in presence of two witnesses. the head and foot boards comprising posts, 1 folding stops connected to the posts of each DE VAULT 5 board, said stops comprising hinged sections, Witnesses:
and means for preventing alinement of the T. W. SHREVE, sections. A J. S. MITCHELL.
