Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented It une 22, 1915.
Application filed September 13, 1913. Serial No. 789,677.
T0 all whom t may concern Be it known that I, COLEMAN C. LYDON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Table- Pads; and l do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to so-called table pads or table top protectors, and has for its object to improve the same in the several particulars hereinafter noted.
Particularly, the invention is directed to the provision of an extremely simple and highly ecient means for anchoring the pad to the top of an extension table.
ln the accompanying drawings which illustrate the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view showing an extension table of the solid pedestal type; Fig. 2 is a plan view of one of the main sections of the'pad; Fig. 3 is an edge elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is an enlarged vertical section taken on the line m4 m4 on Fig. 2, some parts being broken away; and Fig. 5 is a vertical section taken through the pad and table top approximately on the line m5 m5 on Fig 1.
Of the parts of the table, the numeral 1 indicates the pedestal, the numeral 2 the slidable separable table top sections, and the numeral 3 an extension board.
The table top protector, as shown, is designed to fit a yround table top but may, of course, take other forms. It is, therefore, made up of two semi-circular main pad sections 4, and also, preferably, of one or more extension pad sections 5. The main sections 4 fit the main table top sections 2, and the extension pad 5 fits the extension board 3. In this preferred construction, each of the pad sections 445, is made up of upper and lower parts 4a and 4b. The said upper part 4a may be a single ply of heavy paper, felt, or other suitable material, while the said lower part 4h is preferably made up of two plies of the same material. The upper part 4L is preferably covered with oil cloth or other liquid-proof material 4C, which, at its edge, is turned under the said top part 4a. The lower part 4b is preferably pro vided with a bottom covering of flannel or other cloth 4d, the edge of which is brought up and turned over the top of thesaid part 4b. The two parts 4?L and 4b are then placed together with the inturned edges of the coverings 4c and 41 pressed together, leaving a strong and nicely finished edge around the pad. The oil cloth or water proof covering 4, of one of the main pad sections 4, and also of the extension pad 5, is preferably eX tended to form a flexible joint flap 4e, which is in the form of a loop, being formed by having its extreme edge folded backward and secured to the upper felt plies 4a. `This gives a strong and durable joint flap which will not fray out.
The anchoring devices are in the form of flexible straps constructed of canvas or other suitable material, the said straps being preferably doubled to form loops 6, the ends of which are extended between the upper and lower plies 4a and 4b of the several sections of the pad. The upper and lower plies of the pad sections may be secured together, as above stated, by the use of cement, or by being stitched, and in either instance, the ends of the anchoring loops 6 will be firmly secured to the respective pad sections. The anchoring loops 6 which are on the adjacent vedges of different pad sections and which drop between the same joint between sections of the table top, are oset so that they do not come into engagement with each other and so that when pinched between the sections of the table top, they will not separate the said table top sections to any considerable extent. They will, however, when thus clamped, securely anchor the pad sections to the table top and properly position the same thereon.
By pulling on the lower ends of the anchoring loops just before or while clamping the table top sections against the same, close and accurate positioning of the pad sections and the table top sections is insured. Being exible and pliable, the said anchoring straps will not mar the table top and are adapted to be compressed, so that they will separate the table tcp sections only very slightly. When pinched in the joints between the table top sections, the said anchoring straps will be very firmly held. TWhen the pad is removed from the table it does not afford obstructions or projections inter fering with close packing of the pads. To facilitate packing or storage of the pad secclosing of the table top sections.
2. A table top protector inade up of rigid sections, each section being made up of upper and lower plies and coverings therefor,
' said sections having at their abutting edges A top and aording hand pic ces by which the sections of the table top protector may be pulled into place before the straps :1re pinched by the closing` of the table top sections.
ln testimony whereof I afix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
