ALBERTI NA N. CARLSON, 0F RIVERSIDE, ILLINOIS.

ICE-CREAM-FREEZER SUPPORT.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Oct. 31, 1911.

Application filed June 19, 1909. Serial No. 508,077.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ALBERTINA N. CARL- soN, a subject of the King of Sweden, and a resident of Riverside, Cook county, Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ice-Cream-Freezer Supports, of which the following is a specification. l

My invention relates to household conveniences and has particular reference to means for supporting ice-cream freezers and the like to keep them steady during operations and thus relieve the operator or housewife of that strain. a j

The object of my invention is to provide improved means for accomplishing the above in the form of a folding device which may be permanently attached to any convenient stationary part, such as a kitchen wall, which shall take up no'appreciable room and which shall be adjustable to various sizes of vessels.

To this end my invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrange- .ment of parts herelna'fte-r described in detail, illustrated in'the accompanying drawing and incorporated in the appended claim.

In the-drawingFigure 1 is a perspective view of a device embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an edge view or side elevation of same.. Fig. 3 is a front elevation.

In the several views, 2 represents a base or backing board which is shown provided with screw-holes 3 for the reception of screws by means of which the board may be 'fastened to a wall or other stationary part.

- To the face of the board 2 is secured a strip or ledge-4 onto which is hinged at 5, 5 a folding shelf 6. This shelf is supported in a horizontal or operative position by means of a folding bracket or support 7 which is hinged at 8, 8 to the board 2. Above said shelf is hinged at 9 a pair ofcurved

arms

10 and 11, to the ends of which at 12 and 13, respectively," are pivoted a pair of clasp-

sections

14 and 15. These are provided with

adjustable extensions

16 and 17 engaged by

bolts

18 and 19 that project from the members l4 and 15 and engage slots 20 and 21 in said extensions. These bolts are provided with wing-

nuts

22 and 23 whereby said extensions are made slidably adjustable along the

sections

14 and 15, the

arms

10, 11,

sec tions

14 and 15 and

extensions

16 and 17 together constituting a band adapted to embrace the body of an ice-cream freezer, or

bolt 28 provided with a wing-nut 29. With the aid of this bolt and nut the extreme ends of the band may be secured together after said band has been placed around an icecream freezer.

The details of my invention may, of course,

v be varied in numerous ways without departing from the spirit of same.

On the shelf 6 I arrange curved angleiron guides or

lateral supports

30 and 31, one wing or flange of each of which is secured to the top of the shelf and provided with slots 32 engaged by bolts 33 which project from the shelf. These

guides

30 and 31 are thus adjustable toward and from each other so that they may be made to snugly embrace the bottom portion of a freezer and support it laterally on the shelf in the same manner as the upper portion of a freezer is supported laterally by the band hinged to the base-board or wallortion 2.

In Fig.- 3 the dotted lines in the upper part of the figure show the sections of the band opened up ready to receive and engage a vessel in the manner indicated in full lines in Fig. 1 where the band is closed upon the dotted-line vessel 24. In Fig. 2' the dotted lines show the normal or folded positions of the band, shelf and the shelf-support or in other words said dotted lines indicate a side view of the parts as they appear in Fig. 3, where the positions of the parts as they appear when folded out of the way, are shown. In Fig. 3 as Well as by dotted lines in Fig. 2, it will be seen that the band lies fiat against the wall-portion '2, that .the shelf-support 7 likewise lies flat against said wall-portlon and that the shelf 6 'lies flat against the shelf-support They are thus, when not in use, practically out of the way entirely and do not take up any appreciable space. From their folded positions the different parts maybe very quickly adjusted into operative position as they appear in Fig. 1. a

I claim as my invention In a device of the class described, the combinationwith a shelf of a stationary part or 2 w I I 1,007,062

support, a bracket hinged to said support and adjustable to sustain said shelf 1n a horizontal position, said shelf and bracket being arranged to lie fiat against said support, an expansible band or clasp hinged to said support and constructed and arranged to completely embrace the body of a vessel placed on said shelf and adjustable supports on said shelf arranged to hold the bottom of a vessel placed thereon against lateral move- 10 ment.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing v witnesses. o
