UNITED OFFICE.
LEVI W. BUXTON, OF NASHUA, NEr HAMPSHIRE, ASSIGNOR TO .IOSEPHUS BALDW'IN AND L. KIMBALL, OF SAM E PLAGE.
BEDSTEAD-FAS TENING.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N o. 23,525, dated April 5, 1859; Reissued June 17, 1873, No. 5,447.
To aZZ whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEVI IV. BUXTON. of Nashua7 Hillsboro county, State of New Hampshire7 have invented an Improved Bedstead-Fastening; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
To enable others skilled in the art to which my invent-ion belongs. to make and use the same, I will proceed to describe its construeA tion and operation,
Figure l. of the drawings represents a side view; Fig. 2, a horizontal cross section through the device.
a, represents one of the vertical posts of a bedstead; one of the rails. The post and rail are both grooved out as seen at o and (Z. These grooves are cut out by a circular instrument7 so that the grooves in all the posts and rails will be alike and the iron piece e, will fit equally well in any of the grooves. This piece e, is made with two shoulders y', j, along the line m y, so as to abut against the end of the rail b. Part of the edge of piece e, is circular and is serrated as seen at Z. Z; these little teeth are pressed into the circula r top and bottom of the groove (Z, thus makw ing a perfectly tight lit which leaves no room for dirt or vermin to settle in. The end of the piece e. which projects into the rail is provided with a hole corresponding to a slightly conical hole in the rail. A conical pin Z2, is driven through these holes in the rail and piece e, thus uniting the two parts in a. very substantial manner. A pin g, is inserted through the post and supports a small friction roller A77 in the groove c. The end of the piece e, which projects into the postis made into a hook c', which is to be slipped over the friction roller f, when it is desired to fasten the rail to the post. The circular p art of the hook is a little larger than the circumference of the friction roller as seen at z', so as to prevent the lat-ter from being jammed. The friction roller serves to easc the insertion of the hook and to allow the hook to slide smoothly down until the circular portion of the hook rests upon the roller7 when the rail will be drawn tight up to the post. If the pin g, were employed without the friction roller, the friction between the inner surface of the hook and the surface of the pin would work against and impede the insertion of the hook. The hole in the piece c, is somewhat larger t-han the pin ZL, so that only the rear portion of the hole rests against the pin.
It will be seen that the piece e, can be easily detached from the rail by simply knocking the pin Zi, out; which is a great advantage in packing.
The posts and rails can be packed nicely in boxes, nothing projecting from the posts or rails that could be knocked off, bent or loosened.
Having described my improved device for l Gno. R. Hour, GEO. Y. SAwYER.
