Improvements in the Construction of Perambulators.
We, WILLIAM JOHN PARKER and EDWARD GAMES PARKER, both of 104 to
110, Curtain Road, in the County of Middlesex, Perambulator Manufacturers do
hereby declare the nature of our said invention to be as follows:-
The object of our invention is to effect improvements in the construction of
perambulators.
We construct our improved Perambulator with two handles, one at each end, fixed
to separate frames. The lower ends of these frames overlap, and are holted together
under the body of the perambulator.
The axles are fixed to the frames in the usual manner, whereby the frames are
steadied and secured parallel to each other.
The body of the perambulator rests upon springs of steel or iron, which are fastened
under the seat of the same, and the outer ends of these springs are secured to cross
bars fitted to about the centres of the upright portions of the frames, at each end
of the carriage. These cross bars serve not only to support the springs, but also
to steady the bars of the frame and keep them in position.

hereby declare the nature of our said invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:
The object of our invention is to effect improvements in the construction of
perambulators.
We construct our improved perambulator with two handles, one at each end, fixed
tó separate frames. The lower ends of these frames overlap, and are bolted together
under the body of the perambulator.
The axles are fixed to the frames in the usual manner, whereby the frames are steadied
and secured parallel to each other.
The body of the perambulator rests upon springs of steel or iron, which are
fastened under the seat of the same, and the outer ends of these springs are secured
to cross bars fitted to about the centres of the upright portions of the frames, at
each end of the carriage. These cross bars serve not only to support the springs,
but also to steady the bars of the frame and keep them in position.
And in order that our said invention may be particularly described and ascertained
reference is hereby made to the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of
reference indicate corresponding parts.
