ApplioationJune '14, 1937, .Serialf fNo. f148,'198 v y s claims. (c1. sii-,iig v i Y This invention-relates to certain vnew'and useful I6 as shown in Figures 5 and 7. The A-l'owerfends improvements in typewriter stands.
The primary object of the invention is "to provide "a typewriter 'stand `of the knock-down type wherein different sections or units that are shipped in collapsed condition maybe readily assembled by unskilled labor with the assembled sections or units presenting a rigidtableor stand construction for the purposes intended.
*With 'the above and other objects in view that will'become apparent as the nature of the invention -is better understood, the vsame "consists in the novel form, combination and arrangement of p'artsfhereinafter more fully described, .shown in the accompanying drawings and claimed.
In vthe drawings :Y-

'Figure is -a fragmentary perspective 'view of the upper Vend-of one of the lfrontcornerlegs;
Figure 7 is a fragmentary perspective view, partly 4iin:sectionoffafront corner leg and the connected side and end aprons; and
Figure 8 is a perspective View of one of the side aprons carrying the guide for the sliding shelf.
Referring more in detail to the accompanying drawings, the knock-down typewriter stand or table is formed of sections including front and rear leg assemblies, I0 and II, a connecting foot board I 2, side aprons I3, a table top I4 and a sliding shelf I5, each of the foregoing knockdown parts being assembled into stand or tabler formation as shown in Figure 1.
The front leg assembly III is formed of corner legs of angle iron construction having front flanges I6 and side flanges I'I, the upper ends of the front corner legs being connected together by means of an angle iron apron strip I8 that has opposite ends thereof spot welded as at I9 to the inner sides of the upper ends of the leg anges of the frontcornerllegs are-ffurtherfcorinected.together 'bylan'gle iron cross-'strips 120 that Vhave their vendsfspot lwelded as at 25| to the 'flanges --'I6 and f I I 'ofl'the ffront corner legs and las shown in Figures` `1Sand'5, l'the lower ends fo'f'the Ilegs are suitablyfashioned into feet 22 that carry gliders or the like, casters 23 'beingshown iin `Figure 1, wl`1`i1e1-slrds 24 lare Xshownin 'Fig-ure 5.
yfl'llie rearlileg assembly I I is similar in construction to the front leg assembly andincludes corner 'legs formed of angle 'iron' with rear `flanges 25 vand'side-"flanges 26,-an apron lstrip-27 being secured-to the innersides'of the upperends of the rear lflanges (25 `by"spo't v'welding 'vor tthe 'like as shown 'at' 2\8`in Figs. 2 and 5, lthe lower'endsof the rear corner legs being 'i connected by fa cross bracef29-s`pot welded "atits vends vas `at 130 to Asaid corner-legst y f "I'he lfront Iand-reary leg frames are maintained in set-up conditionfby the foot `board I2 that lconnect'sthe*crossV braces '|20 and 29, 'oppositeendsfo'f the footboard -I 2 being '-detachably *connected to the cross-braces IZ-Dand y29 by nut and 'bolt combinations30-`ortlie like. v
The construction of side apron I3 is shown more c1ear1yfin' Figs. `2,'-7 and 8 and `beingfformed of sheet metal or'the like-includes a relatively narrow rhorizontal top ilange 3l vthat yis `outwardly directed froma-side'wal1 '32 thatcarri'es a relatively narrow -inwardlyW-directed flange 33 at its lOWeredge. VAAiiir'iwardly directed channel 34 extends :longitudinally ofthe side wall 32 intermediate-thefupper'and lower edges thereof and secured' to the inner side of thechannel 34 is a guide'channe'l 351having upper vand lower flanges 36, 'thefguide'channl `being anchored to the channel by'isptfwel'din'g as at 31. A bolt opening 38 is formed inthe side wall 32 of the apron I3 adjacent eachl lower corner edge thereof and a spring loop or finger 39 is struck-out from the Side wall 32 of the apron adjacent each upper corner edge thereof, in vertical alignment with the adjacent bolt opening 38. A cut-away portion or notch 40 is formed in the upper terminal ends of the side flanges I1 and 26 of the front and rear corner legs and a bolt opening 4I is also formed in said flanges below said notch. When the side aprons I3 are assembled with the front and rear leg frames I0 and II, the top ange 3I of the apron I3 rests upon the upper terminal ends of the side flanges I 'I and 26 of the front and rear legs, the struck-out ngers 39 being received in the notches 4|] of the legs while the openings 38 in the side aprons register with the openings 4l in the legs for the passage of nut and bolt combinations 42 or other fastening devices. A tongue 43 struck from the front flanges I6 of the front corner legs in line with the guide channels 35 provide openings 44 in said leg anges registering with the guide channels to permit sliding movement of the shelf I5 in the guide channels 35.
The table top I4 is supported upon the top flanges 3| of the side apron I3 and has depending marginal flanges 45 as clearly shown in Figures 3 and 4.
From the above detailed description of the invention, it is believed that the construction and operation thereof will at once be apparent and while there is herein shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it is nevertheless to be understood that minor changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
