v To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY J. D m'rnron, a citizen of theUnited States, resldmg at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and 6 State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements 'in Fol-dable (lamp Kits, of which the followmg 1s a specification. My object is to make a foldaible camplnt and my invention consists of the novel features herein shown, described and clalmed.
Figure 1 is a perspective of a folda'ble camp kit embodym the. prlnclples. of my invention, the parts eing folded-and ready for transportation.
Fig. 2 is a perspective with the parts unfolded and set up to form a hlgh table,the high table being shown in full lines, and it belng shown in dotted lines how the leaves table.
folded camp kit in position for transportation upon the running board of an automobile.
Fig. 4 is a vertical CIOSS-SGOtlOD on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2, and showin the two table leaves in position to form a igh table, and showingin dotted lines, one leaf lowered to form a low table. V
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary horizontal sectional detail on the line 5-5 of Fi 4.
'Fig. 6 is analogous *to Fig. 5'an taken ed to be mounted :onthe running board 2 of the automobile 3 for transportation.
The main frame or body comprises the bottom board 4, the top board 5 and the end boards 6 and 7 rigidly secured to the top and bottom boards which arev parallel and the end boards 6 and 7 fit against the ends of the top and bottom boards. The end boards 6 and 7 are the same width as the top board 5 and the bottom board 4 is the thickness of a board narrower at each side than the top board, thus making recesses 8 and Specification 01' Letters Patent.
' side boards of the table may be lowered to form a low Fig. 3 is a side elevation showing the on the line 6-6 of Fig. 4, with the leaf in a fragmentary end elevation of boards along the edges of Patented May 20, 1919. .epplicationflled 4pm 9, 191a. Serial in. 227,579.
Slots 11 are formed between the ends of the top board 5 and th 6 and 7; said slots extending from the edges of the boards and screws 12 are inserted through the end boards across the slots 11 into the top. board. In a like.
ends of the bottom board and the inner faces of the end boards and screws 14 are inserted e upper ends of the manner slots 13 are formed between the through the end boards through the slots 13 into the bottom board.
The screws 12 and'14. are the finishingplates 10 are applied.
The legs 21 and 22 are crossed sticks pivotally connected together by a bolt 23, there being nuts 24 and 25 upon the bolt upon the opposite. sides of the sticks and hooks 26 and 27 extending from the ends of the bolt.
In a like manner the legs 30 and 31 are pivotedtogether and have pintles to engage the sockets in the plates 17 and 18.. A truss rod 32 having a turnbuckle construction 33 connects the hook 27 of the legs 21 and and there being ends 19 to form inserted before- 22 to the hook 26 ofthe legs 30 and 3-1, and
The table leaves 38 and 39 are substan- I tially alike.
Hinge members 40 are-secured to the inner corners of the leaves toenter the slots 11 and engage the screws 12, said screws serving as hinge pins.
The hinge members 40 each naeaare the hinge members 40 in the slot 11, the hinge members are ressed downwardly so that the Screws 12 wil pass through the slots 45 into the openings 44.
In a li e manner the leaf 38 is supported by the toggle brace 52. When desired the leaf 39 may be removed by pulling the pins out of their sockets and disconnectingthe hinge members 40 from their hinge pins and the leaf may be replaced to form-a low table by placing the hinge members 40 in the slots 13 to engage the hinge the braces 48 downward y and inserting the ins 50 into their sockets as shown in dotted mes in Fig. 4. Of course the leaf 38 may be loweredin a similar manner. In actual practice I prefer to raise the table leaf 38 to its upper position and lower the leaf 39 to its lower position and use the space between the end boards 6 and 7 upon the bottom board 4 as a cupboard, lace the oil stove upon the lower leaf 39 an use the upper leaf 38 and the top 5 as a table. I
The pins 49 are centrally located between the to and bottom so that the braces 48 and 52 wi l reach upwardly or downwardly, as
desired, and the leaves 38 and 39 are of just the right width to fold downwardl upon the hinge pins 12 with their lower e ges fitting into the recesses 8 and 9, thus making a complete box. I
The legs 21 and 22 are removed from their sockets and folded and the legs 31 a 32 are removed from their sockets and fol ed, and
cooking utensils, dis
A clamp plate 56 is secured against the lower face of the bottom 4 by a bolt and wmg nut 57 and has hooks 58 and 59 to engagethe folded legs, said folded legs being provided with recesses to receive the hooks, and when the parts have all been placed in position the win nut 57 is operated to tighten the clamping plate 56 and hold all the parts tight.
A flush plate handle 60 is embedded into the upper face of the top board 5 to be used m carryingthe package 1 thus produced like a suit case.
Of course the camping equipment such as es and the like may be packed in the box.
Various changes may be made in the construction, arrangement and combination of parts without departing from the spirit of my invention, as claimed. 8
I claim:
-1. A foldable camp kit comprising, a bottom board; a to 'board; end boards fitting against the en s of the bottom and top boards and rigidly secured to form a rectangular frameleaves connected to the centers of the end boards by toggle braces; and means for removably connecting the leaves to the top and bottom boards; so that the leaves may be moved from the level of the top board to the level of the bottom board at will.
2. A foldable camp kit comprising a top board, a bottom board, end boards connectmg the top and bottom boards together, there being slots at the ends of the top and bottom boards, hinge ins inserted through the end boards throug the slots, table leaves having slotted hinge members adapted to engage the hinge pins, and toggle braces connected to the end boards and adapted to swing upwardly or downwardly to brace the leaves.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
