SLIDING DRAWER DIVISION.
APPLICATION FILED APR. 9, 1911.
Patented Dec. 3l, 1918.
INVENTOR WITNESSES ATTORNEY SAM NUSSEY, OF TRENTON, NEW JERSEY.
sLInINe DRAWER-DIVISION.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 31, 1918.
Application led April 9, 1917. Serial No. 160,762.
To all whom z't may concern.'
Be it known that I, SAM NUssnY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Trenton, in the county of Mercer and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sliding Drawer-Divisions, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a sliding partition for desk drawers and the principal object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which will occupy a minimum amount of space in the drawer.
Another object is to provide mea-ns whereby the device can be placed in the drawer and removed therefrom in a minimum amount of time and with the least possible effort.
Another object of the invention is to provide simple and efficient means for holding' the partition in place while allowing the same to be quickly and easily moved to another part of the drawer.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which is simple and durable in construction, reliable and elicient in operation and one which can be manufactured and placed upon the market at a minimum cost.
The invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will he had to the accompanying drawings, wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure l'is a longitudinal section through a drawer, provided with my invention.
Fig. 2 is a section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view, showing the support for the partition.
Fig. 4 is a detail view of the track.
In this drawing, 1 represents the drawer having a slot 2 in its bottom, said slot being provided with a widened portion 2 in the rear of the drawer. 3 represents the track secured to the bottom of the drawer and composed of a bottom part 4 provided with the sides 5 and the flanges 6 secured to said sides, each of said flanges extending on both sides of the side members 5 and having the openings 6 in the outwardly extending part to receive the screws '6X for securing the track to the bottom of the drawer and with the inwardly extending parts 6L extending from the sides to the edge of the slot 2. The track stops at the widened portion of the slot, as shown in Fig. 1, and the flanges 6 are bent upwardly at an angle and are secured to the correspondingly inclined part of the bottom, as at 7. It will be seen that the flanges 6 are longer than the rest of the track, soas to provide for this upwardly inclined part.
The partition consists of the partition proper 8 secured in the fork 9 by the rivets 10. Said fork is composed of the stem 11 grooved to form the two members of the fork, as shown in Fig. 3, and said stem has an enlarged head 12 carrying the plate 13, said plate being connected to or formed with said head 12. Openings 14 and grooves 14 are formed in said head 12 adjacent the plate 13 and bars of spring metal 15 engage said grooves and have their ends passing through said openings to form springs for holding the partition against movement. The under face of the plate 13 is provided with corrugations, as at 16, which engage with corresponding corrugations 17 formed' on the bottom plate 4 of the track.
When the partition is to be placed in the drawer, the plate 13 and head 12 are passed through the widened portion 2 of the slot 2, the inclined portion 7 of the flange 6 facilitating the passage of the springs 15 to the track. As the plate 13 reaches the proper level, the whole device is moved toward the front of the drawer, thus, the plate is held within the track, with the springs 15 bearing against the flange 6a and tending to force the corrugations of the plate 13 into engagement with those 17 on the bottom plate 4. Thus, the partition will remain at any point it is placed and when it is desired to move thesame, all that is necessary is to lift the partition with its stem slightly so as to compress the springs 15 and lift the plate 13 off the bottom plate 4. The partition can then be moved either forward or backward. As soon as the partition is released the springs cause the reengagement of the plate 13 with the bottom plate 4. When the partition is to be removed, it is simply necessary to slide it to the rear of the drawer and the whole device is then lifted through the opening 2.
It is thought from the foregoing that the fall within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim as my invention: l. In combination with a drawer having a slot in its bottom, a box-like track secured to the under side of the drawer and communicating with the slot, a partition having a portion extending into said slot, a
plate connected with the said portion and located in the box-like track, said track and vplate having corrugations therein, spring means on the partition above the plate engaging with the top of the track for forcing the corrugated plate into engagement with the corrugations on the trank and said drawer having an opening in its rear, through which the plate may be removed.
2. In combination with a drawer having a corrugated surface in one wall, a pair of spaced flanges mounted over this corrugated surface in spaced relation'thereto, a partition plate, a member carried by said plate to extend between the flanges and having a portion of its surface corrugated for interitting engagement with the corrugated surface, and resilient members mounted on said member to engage the flanges to normally retain said member in engagement 4with the corrugated surface and thereby retain the partition plate in adjusted position.
3. A sliding drawer partition including a plate, a member extending from said plate having one end enlarged and corrugated, and having a recess at each end of said enlarged portion, and a pair of angular spring .members ea' h having one terminal inserted in a recess to dispose the other terminal in a position extending `in divergingrelation to the enlarged portion of the member, as and for the purpose set forth.
l. In combination with a drawer having a corrugated surface in one wall, a pair of flanges mutually spaced and located over the corrugated surface in spaced relation thereto, a plate, a. member extending from said plate and into the space between the flanges in presence of two witnesses.
SAM NUSSEY.
