TREATMENT TENT Filed Jan. 10, 1942 Patented Nov. 9, 1943 TREATMENT- mm v ffieorge Budd, Los AngeleaCalif.
- Application January 10, 1942, Serial No. 426,331
gi Claim. (cm. 1354) I A further object is to provide a small tent mounted within a larger tent the inner tent 'be ing provided with a Screen covered bottom toprevent any chance of the person 'u'sing the tent from being burned by touching theglobes, or
to'insure that 'no *glass'fromfon'e of the globes should fall onto the person should one of the globes be broken while in use.
A still further object is to provide a tent with in a tent with the inner tent provided with a" rowof sockets in which light andray emitting globes may be inserted, the top of the inner tent being formed of a suitable framework in which an asbestos sheet or other heat insulation is car-- ried and with a screen carried under the sheet to hold it in place, and with the bottom of the inner tent being closed by a'screen, and with the inner walls of the inner tent made to reflect heat, light and color onto the body'of the user, thereby insuring against fire hazard, personal injury and insuring the user of the full benefit of the heat and rays of the globes.
A still further object is to provide a tent within a tent, with the inner tent carrying a base framework covered with screen to prevent and eliminate danger and through suchconstruction provide an economically manufactured treatment tent, eliminating danger and high priced labor and costly equipment such as reflectors and the like using just the best type of fabric for'the outer tent at much less cost. When so constructed the resulting tent assembly is foldable into a small space and easily stored or packed for shipment. The tent is also easily and quickly set up or taken down after use.
As before stated the bottom of the inner tent being wider than the top and wider than the framework supporting the two tents, there will be no danger of the walls of either tent touching the globes thereby eliminating fire hazard.
These objects I accomplish .with the device illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which similar numerals and letters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views and as described in the specification forming a part of this application and pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawing in which I have shown my invention,
I Figure l isa side elevation of my tent mounted ready for use, parts cut away to show the inner tent,with the flap raised on the inner tent to show the interior thereof.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the inner tent and top framework for both tents parts cut away with the cover for securing the outer-tent toth framework shown part cut away.
" Figure 3 shows a section on line 3-4 of Figure 1 to show the details of the inner tent structure and portions of the outer tent walls.
In the drawing I have shown the outer ten as A and the inner tent or canopy as B. The
framework forsupporting the two tents is of a;
type similar to'that patented by me under Patent No. 2,210,060, dated August 6, 1940. In this framework there is a central longitudinal suppieces 9. The frameworkC is made of a rectangular metal frame I!) which is supported by theends 9 and the lower ends of the end pieces 9 are formed as inwardly bent or hinged foot pieces 9" adapted to be inserted under each end of a mattress on a bed or the like.- 'The frameworkis not shown complete, not being a part of this application other than some such an end support device must be employed to support the famework C. Medially of the framework extending longitudinally from end to end thereof and secured to each end, and if necessary to each side piece, I provide a narrow spacer and support strip I2, made of wood, metal or other suit able material, with the ends secured to the ends l3 and I4 of the frame 10 by suitable means.
On the top of the strip l2 there is an electrical conduit l5, which conduit carries the wiring from the switch box S to the sockets l6 for providing electrical current. The sockets l6 carry the light globes G. The switch S is mounted near the head end of the frame l0 so that the person using the tent will have easy access to the switches to control the globes G within the tent B.
An asbestos or similar fire resistant'sheet II is carried in a rectangular frame I8 smaller in width and shorter in length than the frame Ill but having the sides parallel with and substantially abutting the inner edges of the frame I0. A screen I1 is secured to the frame l8 under the sheet II to hold the sheet ll firmly in place and prevent it being broken. The frame I8 and sheet II are secured by means of the assembling of the sockets It, said sockets being passed through the screen I1 and sheet II and through the strip I2, and when so placed the assembly of the sockets will lock the entire assembly together for the roof of the inner tent B. If needed thumb screws may be employed to hold the assembly mentioned to the frame 10 to support the inner tent B from the frame Ii). The frame I 8, asbestos sheet II and screen ll form the top of the inner tent and the side walls of th inner tent are secured to the perimeter of the frame l8 by suitable snap fasteners,,.qr the like and the inner tent hangs down from frame ll supporting the lever frame IS. The frame l9 carries a closure screen 20 over its inner area to protect the user from being burned or from falling glass should one of the globes G break while in use. The frame I I9 is wider and longer than the frame 18, so that when suspended by the sidewalls the sidewalls will diverge outwardly instead of hanging down vertically. This is to give greater room within the inner tent B for the globes G and to more evenly reflect the heat, light and/proctor therefrom down onto the user. The walls of th in mm B e .m w th l e 9 W of reflecting material or the entire walls may be made of a reflecting material and these walls are secured to the perimeter of the lower frame L9 by suitable snap fasteners secured around the perimeter of the frame 18 by solder, riveting, spot welding or by covering the fram i8 with fabric and securing the snap fasteners to the fabric in the conventional rnanner. An ripening 2|. is provided in one side of the inner tent B through which the gl be G may be inserted or removed from the sockets 16 as desired. or when packing for storage or shipping. A closu e flap. 2-2 is provided to normally close the openin 2| when the tent is in use. The specific structure of the inner tent makes it possible to use it in any tent should need arise but primarily it is to be used as illustrated. A cover 5 i provided for the frame I8 and its assembly, with the ends of the strip 12 passed through pockets in each end of the cover 5. I
The perimeter of the cover 5 hangs down around the ame 1. 0. ea s de Mid 8 0 8 each end a flap 6 w h h end fla s 6 in from the ends J3 nd 1. 0 h frame. e- A central opening I is provided in the cover 5 to permit easy access to the wiring conduit l5 and the socket parts of the sockets IS. The outer tent A is made of two identical sidewalls 8 secured together at their ends by suitable means such as slide fasteners, snap fasteners, or buttoned placket, so that when used the tent will be substantially sealed from outer atmosphere. To insure this sealing the top edges of the sidea ls ar ecure de the fl ps 6 by suitable means such as man installers. Thus any tendency for the heated air within the tent to escape is defeated and the heat is held within the tent by the flaps 6.
The .ends of the sidewalls 8 where they meet and are secured together may be at any place around th entire perimeter of the tent at the option of the user, as the snap fasteners will be spaced equal distance apart in each instance so that the side walls will fit together and to the lap 5 a any WW As show i the s dew l s s at h and e Each iii. he s ket w is m le to n w s i dividual ig t circu t and e a sw ch so t at an one di idual e tu n d an or Qfi P asu 9, t eme and al c th iw wa a ri d in t e mail; s t h x S whi h is p ev defl w th a wir a d l s 1 "fo n sfies the Fla-mate my s e o wr eal enem -av l b e a I ill b pb ious that q ivalent m be em loy d er he sl de f steners nd sn p ast n m nti ed in the ab ve sp c fi ations and such changes tpgether with modificaim re considered wi hin the piri of the inven ion the cone f the app nded Havin thus des ribed my in e tion d sir o ecu e b Letters Pa ent claim:
