"Be it known that I, FREDERICK K. B. T. Rose,` a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Portland, in the county ,ofMultnd t a numberof4 tables which,.whenn`ot in use, maybe readily folded together and placed `mah and State` of Oregon, have invented certain new and` usefuljImproveInents in Tables, of which the following isa specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings. l .i y
This invention relates to new `and useful improvements in `tables and more particularly to center or carcbtables, the main object ofthe invention being the provision of one within the` other, so as to occupy a Inini-` murnspacew l `Another object of the present invention is v theprovision of a table of theabove charac- 2 to and more' particularlypointed out inthe specification andclairnsa 1` i In theaccompanying drawingsforming a partlof this application, Figure l is a perspective view of; the main table constructedv i in accordancewith rnv invention.

Fig. `7 `isza 1.longitudinal sectional view `taken through the body of'oneof'the auxiliarytables, illustrating the manner of retaining the supporting hooks in position.

Fig. 9 is a detail perspective view of the upperend. ofone ofthe auxiliary tables; and Fig. 10 is a `View similar to Fig.` 7 illustrating one of the legs about to be folded upwardly` against `the body.
In carrying] out my invention, I provide what will be known as the main table, and

which is generally indicated in the `accompanying drawingsby thenumeral l. The body 2.of `thisI table is hollow and is preferably octagonalin cross section and provided at its lower` end `with a substantially circular base member 3, said bodv beingsupported in anupright positionby means of the angular `supporting legs I4, the` outer ends of which are adapted to project beyond the periphery ofthe base 3, and restlupon any'desired surface, `while the upper ends thereof are rigidly sccuredto the various flat :portions of they body. `Mounted upon the upper end of the bodyQ, is a supporting plate 5which isof substantially the same shape asithe bodyiand hingedly ,secured tO` opposite sides thereof, are the sections Gfand r@which comprise the topof the table..\vhen.`
folded together.` The sections 6 and `7' are hingedlyconnected to the supporting top 5, at` a `centralpoint `which is indicated by the numeral `8 and are preferably hollow in cross section, as indicated in Fig. 4, said top,`
whendfolded together being of substantially` thesaine shape as `the body2.` In order to retain the sections 6 and 7 in closed posi tion,.so as touprovide atop for the table, I provide the `catch members 9 which are securedupon opposite sidesof the sections and adapted for` engagement with the pins 9' risica FREDERICK `K. i3.` fr. Ross, or` PORTLAND, oREeoN.:
when the two sections are folded together, f, so as to retain them in their closed positions.`
Adapted to be `arrangedwithin the bodyZ,`
of the table 1,.is a second table standard 10 which is preferablyrectangular.in form and provided `at `its lower end and uponeach side thereof with'the openings 11` through which the upper ends of the: supporting legs 12 are adapted to extend,.saidsupporting legs bef ing `hingedly connected to" the body 1 `at a point adjacent their;upp`er ends, asindicated by the numeralflf..` l l It will 'be noted that in1 Fig. `7, the inner ends of the supporting legs12 are beveled, as shown atrlll, so that thexinwardlyproject-j` ingerids` of said legspwhichproject zup-` i wardly into the body 10, `will abut against each otherg and provide a. .suitable` bracing for the inner ends ofthe legs. The upper edges of `thebody l are provided with `the opposed recesses 15 and arranged therein are the supporting bars liwhich support the table top 17, said table top being `formed in two sections and suitably connected totether by means of the catch members 18u These catch members are `pivotally mounted upon the outer ends of the supporting bars 16 and are adapted to engage with the table top to retain the top in position upon said bars. lt will be noted that the openings 11 are of sufficient size so that when it is desired to fold the second table forinsertion within the body 2, of the first table, the legsy 12 will be swung upwardly, the 'inner ends thereof passing out through the lower ends of the openings 11, so that said legs will be disposed flat up against the outer faces of the body 10. f
In Fig. 3, l have shown a third table, `the body of which is indicated by the numeral 19, said body being substantially rectangu-v the table top 22. T he table top 22 isvformed` in two removable sections which, when placed in position are securely heldv by means of the hooks 23. Thesupporting arms 16 and 21 which are mounted upon the upper ends of the'bodies 10 and 19, respectively, are securely held against longitudinal movement by ymeans of the hook members 24, said hook membersbeingpiv votally secured to thebodies and adapted to engage with the cross arms to retain the same in position.- lt will be noted that the table tops 17 and 22 are formed in sections and adapted'to be folded together so that when the same are not in use, they may be placed within the hollow sections 6y and 7 of the top of the table 1. When it is desired to fold the tables and place them one within the other, the supporting legs 12 and 20 of thesecond and third tables are folded upwardly against the bodies 10 and 19, so that the body 10 may then be placed within the body 2 of the first table and the third body 19 then placed within the second body 10. rlllhe cross arms 16 and 21 being placed inside of the body 19 when the table is in its folded position. From this it lwillv be apparent that the three tables may be folded together and placed one 'within the other to provide only one table or they may be readily taken` apart or set up to formthree different tables.
My device, as hereinshown and described,
Copies of this patent may be obtained for is extremely simple in construction and can be manufactured at a comparatively low cost. It will also be apparent that I have provided a device whereby one or more tables may be readily folded together to occupy a minimum space when not in use and may be readily set up for use when desired. .l/Vhile I have shown and described the preferred form of myl invention, it will be obvious that various changes in the details of construction and in the proportions may be resorted to for successfully carrying my invention into practice, without sacrificing any of the novel features or departing from the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described this invention, what l claim is 1. A device of the class described including a table having a hollow body, and ahollow top therefor, supporting legs aty the lower end of said body, and a series of folding tablesadapted to be arranged within the body and the top of the firstA table.
2. fi device `of the class described includingl a main table having a hollow body provided with supporting legs, a supporting plate at the upperendjof said body, a sec tional hollow top hingedly mounted `upon said plate, aseries of folding tables ar-r ranged o'ne'within theother and adapted to be arranged within the 'hollow body and top of the main table.-
`3. A device of the class described including a table having a hollow standard, a hollow top therefor, and a number of tables adaptedto be' removably arranged within the body and the top of the first table.
4. A device ofthe classdescribed including a table having a hollow standard, a
hollow top therefor, and a' second f' table adapted tov be removably arranged within the body and top of the first table. 'p
5. A table including va hollow standard having openings formed in the side walls adjacent the lower end thereof, supporting legs having their inner ends arranged*l within said openings and hingedly connected to the body at the upper edges'of the openings,
the inner 'ends of said supporting legs eX# tending into the body and bearing against each other, as and for the purpose set forth. In testimony whereof I'hereunto afliX my signature in the presence of two .witnesses I i FREDERICK K. B. TrR'ClSE.v Witnesses: n
