UNITED STATES PATENT EEICE.

GRACE M. Gr. WESTON, OF VVINTIIROP, MASSACHUSETTS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 612,076, dated October 11, 1898. Application filed January 15, 1898. Serial No. 666,813. (No model.)

T0 @ZZ whom, it may concern,.-

Be it known that I, GRACE M. G. WESTON, a citizen of the United States, residing in Vinthrop, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a Combined -an elastic cushion which may be placed on the seat of the nursery-chair, such cushion being formed with an integral guard which extends down through the opening in the chair into the chamber vessel, said guard serving effectually not only to hold the vessel directly beneath the opening in the chair, but also acting as a closed way leading to the vessel and preventing any water from falling outside of it.

The nature of the invention is fully described in detail below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of my combined guard and cushion. Fig. 2 is a crosssection of the same, taken on line X, Fig. 1, the device being shown in position in a nursery-chair illustrated in broken lines.

A represents a ring shaped rubber aircushion suitably formed to be applied to the seat of a nursery-chair. From the inner edge of this air-cushion a-ap or guard B, integral with the rubber of which the cushion is formed, extends vertically downward, as shown.

In Fig. 2 the broken lines C represent the 45 If desired, therear part of the flap maybe tacked bythe purchaser to the under side of the seat, while the front part of the flap is allowed to hang down into the vessel.

In Fig. 2 of the drawings the iiap is necessarily much exaggerated in thickness, as is also the rubber constituting the walls of the cushion.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

Y The herein-described combined air-cushion and guard for use with nursery chairsor commodes, consisting of a ring-shaped flexible air-cushion said flap having its interior surface formed on lines substantially straight from the cushion to the edge of the ap provided with a iiexible waterproof guard or Iiap integrally formed with and depending directly from the inner edge of said ring-shaped air-cushion,.whereby the space between the chair-seat and the top of the chamber vessel beneath is guarded against the escape of water outside the vessel, substantially as specitied.

GRACE M. G. WESTON.
