Definitions

  • This invention relates to an extensible table with an improved extension mechanism.
  • US 2,456,835 A refers to refectory tables and more particularly to a slide mechanism whereby one or more leaves of a refectory table may be pulled out from beneath a main table top or panel and positioned to form an extension of the same.
  • a primary objective of the present invention is to provide an extensible table with a stationary center top panel portion.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to provide a user-friendly extension mechanism for a table that requires minimal use input.
  • the present invention is an extensible table that has a stationary top panel fixed to a main frame.
  • a pair of slidable frames can be pulled away from the center of the table in a longitudinal direction and independently of each other.
  • an extension leaf stored below the top panel slides out.
  • the direction of motion of the slidable frame is reversed so that it moves towards the center of the table. This then causes the extension leaf to rise up to the same height as the top panel so that it sits flush with the top panel and a continuous table-top surface is formed.
  • the magnitude of extension from its initial length is equal to the length of the extension leaf.
  • each slidable frame is again pulled away from the center of the table, towing the extension leaf along with it.
  • a guide rail located on the underside of the extension leaf drops it back to its initial height.
  • the slidable frame is then pushed inwards again, so the extension leaf slides underneath the top panel.
  • the extension mechanism comprises: a main frame having a stationary top panel, a lower frame providing support on a ground surface, and a pair of longitudinal side bars running along two opposing sides of main frame and located a distance below top panel; a sliding frame longitudinally slidable in relation to main frame having a pair of longitudinal side members and a cross member joining each of the side members at an outer end; an extension leaf with a pair of guide rails fixed to an underside, being able to move from an initial position whereby the extension leaf is stored underneath the stationary top panel, to an extended position whereby the extension leaf is located flush alongside the top panel thus creating a continuous table-top surface, and back to the initial position; a means of moving the extension leaf from the initial position to the extended position; and a means of moving the extension leaf from the extended position back to the initial position.
  • FIG. 1 to 4 an extensible table in an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
  • a sliding frame (50) is pulled from an initial position in an outwards direction.
  • a pair of guide pins (56) located on each of a pair of side members (52) fixed to two opposing sides of the sliding frame (50) engage a pair of guide rails (42) fixed to an extension leaf (40) thus pulling the extension leaf (40) outwards to a point whereby the extension leaf (40) is clear of the top panel (30) and a rotating pushing block (60).
  • the motion of the sliding frame (50) is then reversed by pushing it inwards toward the top panel (30), thus causing the extension leaf (40) to move inwards as well, until the extension leaf (40) comes into contact with the pushing block (60) which deflects the inward motion of the extension leaf (40) and causes the extension leaf (40) to rise upwards to a height substantially equal that of the top panel (30).
  • the inward motion of the extension leaf (40) is thus halted by the top panel (30).
  • the attached guide pins (56) slide along towards an inner end of the guide rails (42), said guide rails being inclined so that as the guide pins (56) are positioned at said inner end of guide rails (42) the guide pins (56) provide support for the extension leaf (40) at an elevated height substantially equal that of the top panel (30).
  • the inwards motion of a cross member (54) located perpendicular to and joining the ends of the two side members (52) is halted by the extension leaf (40) and such that a top surface of the cross member (54) is flush with a top surface of the extension leaf (40) and a top surface of the top panel (30) thus forming a continuous table top surface in this extended state of the extensible table.
  • the sliding frame (50) continues to move inwards until the inwards motion of the cross member (54) is halted by the top panel (30) and such that the top surface of the cross member (54) is flush with the top surface of the top panel (30) thus forming a continuous table top surface in this contracted state of the extensible table.
  • the extension mechanism described here is for the extension of one side of the extensible table. In one embodiment of the present invention, there are two extension mechanisms located at opposing sides of the extensible table.
  • extension mechanism may be used on any or all sides of the extensible table in any configuration.

  1. Ausziehbarer Tisch, umfassend:
    einen Hauptrahmen (10), der eine feststehende Deckplatte (30) aufweist, wobei der Hauptrahmen (10) eine Stütze auf einer Bodenfläche bereitstellt;
    einen Gleitrahmen (50), der in Längsrichtung in Bezug auf den Hauptrahmen (10) verschiebbar ist; und
    einen Ausziehflügel (40), der sich auf umkehrbare und wiederholbare Weise aus einem Anfangszustand, in dem der Ausziehflügel (40) unter der feststehenden Deckplatte (30) gelagert ist, in einen ausgezogenen Zustand bewegen kann, in dem der Ausziehflügel (40) bündig entlang der Deckplatte (30) angeordnet ist, um somit eine durchgehende Tischplattenoberfläche zu erzeugen, wobei der Ausziehflügel (40)
    (a) dadurch aus dem Anfangszustand in den ausgezogenen Zustand beweglich ist, dass:
    a) der Gleitrahmen (50) in der Weise in einer Richtung nach außen gezogen werden kann, dass wenigstens ein Führungsstift (56), der an einem Seitenelement (52) angeordnet ist, wobei zwei Seitenelemente (52) in Längsrichtung an den gegenüberliegenden Enden des verschiebbaren Rahmens (50) angeordnet sind, mit wenigstens einer Führungsschiene (42) in Eingriff gelangt, die an dem Ausziehflügel (40) befestigt ist, so, dass der Ausziehflügel (40) bis zu einem Punkt, an dem der Ausziehflügel vollständig von der Deckplatte (30) und von einem drehbaren Schubblock (60) frei ist, nach außen gleitet;
    b) der Gleitrahmen (50) nach innen geschoben werden kann, bis der Ausziehflügel (40) mit dem Schubblock (60) in Berührung kommt, wobei der Schubblock (60) dafür ausgelegt ist, die Bewegung des Ausziehflügels (40) nach innen in der Weise abzulenken, dass er auf eine Höhe aufsteigt, die im Wesentlichen gleich der der Deckplatte (30) ist, sodass die Bewegung des Ausziehflügels (40) nach innen durch die Deckplatte (30) gehalten wird, und wobei der wenigstens eine Führungsstift (56) entlang und bis zu einem inneren Ende jeder der wenigstens einen Führungsschiene (42) verschiebbar ist, wobei die Führungsschiene eine Neigung derart aufweist, dass die Positionierung des Führungsstifts (56) an dem inneren Ende der Führungsschiene (42) in dieser erhabenen Höhe eine Stütze für den Ausziehflügel (40) bereitstellt; und
