MARIAN P. KING, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
' ARTICLE FOR HOUSEHOLD USE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 8, 1916.
Application filed March 8, 1916. Serial No. 82,322.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARIAN P. KING, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Brooklyn, in the county'of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Articles for Household Use, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in articles for household use, and more particularly to a supporting device for use in connection with culinary utensils, the object of the invention being to provide an article of this character which is adjustable to a great variety of sizes and which may be collapsed into a very small compass when not in use so as to occupy but little space in the kitchen closet, and which is extremely simple in construction and capable of a wide range of use.
In the drawings accompanying and form-- ing part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved supporting device, the dotted lines indicating the position of a strainer or other utensil supported therein; and Fig. 2 is a detail view of a portion of the device showing the construction of the collapsible members or frames and their pivotal connection with the uprights or legs.
Similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the figures of the drawings.
In the form shown herein the device comprises a plurality of rigid upright members or legs 2, shown herein as four in number, connected together in circular arrangement by means of a pair of so-called lazy tongs frames A, formed of short members 3 intersecting each other and each pivotally connected at its ends and at a point intermediate its ends to three of its companion members. The construction of these frames is well known, and therefore a detailed description thereof is deemed unnecessary herein. The upright members or legs 2 are spaced apart at equal distances and pivotally connected, as at 5,130 said collapsible frames, whereby the device as a whole may be extended to any size within the limits of the frames A or collapsed so as to bring the upright members close together, so that the device will occupy very little space when not in use.
Each of the upright members or legs 2 is preferably provided at a point below the .to such legs, and formed with their center of its length with tending lug 4, to form a frame when placed over a kitchen utensil, such for instance as a preserving kettle. and which lugs 4t may be struck up from the metal of the legs or formed as separate members and riveted or otherwise attached these lugs are preferably ends downwardly bent so as to form hooks to securely hold the frame on the edge of the kettle. Each of the legs is also preferably provided at its inner side near the top thereof with a suspending device, such for instance as a hook 6, on which may be supported a second utensil, such for instance as a strainer or bag 7, as shown in Fig. 1, or a wire strainer may be supported with its rim or flange resting either on said hooks or on the upper edge of the lazy tongs frame i It will thus be seen that I have provided an improved collapsible device which is capable of being expanded to fit utensils of any size ordinarily used in the kitchen, and which device may be put to almost innumerable uses. For instance, when it is to be used for straining jelly a pan or kettle is placed within the frame with the inwardly extending lugs 4 resting on the upper edge of the kettle, while the jelly strainer or bag 7 is hooked over the upper hooks 6, said bag being also preferably provided with. hooks 8 or similar devices for catching over the edge of the upper collapsible frame A at points intermediate the upright members 2, as shown in Fig. 1. In like manner, the device may be used for steaming or warming vegetables, by placing the frame over the steaming kettle as hereinbefore described and placing a colander containing the vegetables with its rim resting on the lugs 4 or on the lower lazy tongs frame A. Still another use to which the device may be put is for raising a dish pan in the sink so as to prevent slopping over the sides of a low sink, in which case the dish pan may be supported with its rim or flange resting on the hooks 6 at the upper portion of the frame, and even though the pan may be oval instead of circular the supporting frame will accommodate itself to this or any other change in shape, since owing to its flexibility it may be distorted within an inwardly exsupport for the any reasonable limits to suit the requirements of each particular use to which it may be put.
parts may be more or less variedwithout departing from the spirit and scope of my invention.
I claim as my invention:
1. A culinary frame comprising a plurality of rigid upright members, and a plurality of lazy tongs frames pivotally connected at the median line thereof with said members in circular formation so as to permit the adjustability of said frame to circles of Varying diameters.
2. A culinary frame comprising a plurality-of rigid upright members, a plurality of lazy tongs frames pivotally connected with said members in circular formation so as'to permit the adjustability of said frame tocircles of varying diameters, a series of inwardly projecting supporting members 3 carried by said upright members below the center of the length thereof, and a series of inwardly projecting supporting members carried by said upright members near the top thereof.
Signed at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York,'this 3rd day of March, A. D. 1916.
