Notice of Acceptance of Complete Specification.

Patent Office,
Wellington, 21st August, 1907.

COMPLETE specifications relating to the undermentioned applications for Letters Patent have been accepted, and are open to public inspection at this office. Any person may, at any time within two months from the date of this Gazette, give me notice in writing of opposition to the grant of any such patent. Such notice must set forth the particular grounds of objection, and be in duplicate. A fee of 10s. is payable thereon.

No. 21149.—16th May, 1906.—JOHN WILSON, of 224 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, near Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Upholsterer. Improvements in upholstery and coach-trimming, method of manufacturing same, and apparatus therefor.*

Extracts from Specification.—This invention has been devised mainly in order to simplify and reduce the cost of manufacturing upholstery of all kinds, including coach and carriage trimming and the like. According to this invention, the stuffing is either completely or partly done on to a frame or shape, in such a way that all or part of the stuffing or trimming may be done before it is attached to the frame or woodwork of the chair, vehicle, or article to be upholstered. The frame above mentioned is constructed of metal or other suitable material. In some cases thin metal frames that could be panelled, swedged, blocked, corrugated, or fluted, so as to give a maximum of strength with a minimum of weight, might be used. It will be obvious that these frames, instead of being circular or oval in shape as indicated in Fig. 1, might be made rectangular or any other required shape to suit the particular shape and size of seat, chair-back, or other article to be upholstered. In fact, right through the drawings, though a circular shape is shown as a matter of convenience, it will be understood that such circular form is given merely by way of an example, and that the frames made as above indicated be constructed of practically any desired shape and size, and instead of being flat they may be curved or shaped according to requirements.

[NOTE.—The above extracts from the specification are inserted in place of the claims.]
