IMPROVEMENT IN FOOT-PLATFORMS FOR STOVES AND FURNITUREg Specification forming part of vLetters Patent No. 133,766, dated December 10, ISU.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES EASTERLY, of the city and county of Albany, State of New York, have invented a Foot-.Platform for supporting articles having legs; and I do hereby declare that the following is a description Jphereof, referencebein g had to the accompanym-g drawing forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l represents a perspective view of one part of the invention; Fig. 2 is a perspec- Fig. illustrates the combination of both parts Fig-6 is a modification of the invention in some of its parts; and Figs. 7 and 8 illustrate some of the applications to which this invention may be applied.
My invention relates to a platform or dais for supporting the feet or legs of articles, as the feet or legs of stoves, bureaus, tables, pianos, and the like; and consists, in one part, of a meta-l platform, either plain or ornamental, and provided with a holding rim or lip, which will prevent the leg from sliding off; and it further consists in the combination of a secondary platform provided with two or more spiral inclines, with the principal platform provided with the holdingrim and bearing-pieces, all of which are so arranged as to be capable of holding the foot or leg from slipping and from contact with the Iioor, and also leveling the same; the object of this invention being to give to the principal article having legs a proper and certain support above the floor, which will permit a cleaning of the immediate place without contact with the feet of the to the same level the'bearing-surfaces on which the several feet or legs of the article stand. i To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it in reference to the drawing and the letters of reference marked thereon, the same letters indicating like or similar parts.
In the drawing, A represents the primary ornamental to correspond with the article it is intended to support, yand may be made either round, oval, square, or of other forms, and 0f any proper size. The said platform is made of cast metal, and is provided with acentral holding-surface, a, which may be either iiat,
work, as desired. The said bearing-surface is surrounded by a rim or ledge, b, which will be capable of confining the bearing end of the foot or leg to be supported from slipping oii. c are the elevating sides, which may be of any desired depth, all of Which is to be made to consist of a single piece, as shown in Figs. 1 and3.
This platform, thus constructed, is to be placed under the foot of any article to which it is adapted, to support the same from contact with the floor. By this part of my in vention the feet of stoves, pianos, tables,and like articles supported by legs will be supported at a distance from the floor, and can be readily cleaned about by a broom, iile, or mop, without marring or contact with the same.
B is the secondary platform, which is to be placed beneath the principal platform Ato support the same, and consists of the base-rim d and the inclines c c, made preferably in a spiral form, as shown iuFigs. 2, 4, and 5, which will be capable of acting with the bearing-pieces f f of the principal platform A, as shown in Fig. 5; and the said spiral inclines 'ce and the bearing-pieces ff are so arranged that if the platform A is turned so as to bring the bearing-pieces f of the same to the lower portion of the top edges of the said inclines the said platform A will be made to have its bearingsurface a depressed; but if the said platform is so placed that the bearings f will be made to rest on the more elevated portion of the said incline the said bearing-surface of the platform will be elevated, and thereby be adjusted to any height that may be required in an uneven floor to level the article standing thereon. y 1
It' desired, the principal platform A only can be used, and can' be rendered adjustable in height by three screws, g g g, working into the under side, as shown in Fig. 6.
This device is simple and efficient for its intended purpose, and can be applied with advantage to stoves, tables, bureaus, pianos, and other household articles, and also machines.
Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
As an article of manufacture, the secondary platform B, constructed withtwo or more spiral inclines, e c, and capable of operating withthe platform A, substantially as and for the purpose set forth. Witnesses: JAMES EASTERLY.
