CHILDS GARDEN.
Application filed April 6, 1922.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEWIS P. SITTIG, a citizen of the United States, residing at River Forest, in the countyof Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Childs Garden, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a childs garden and has for one of its objects the provision of a simple and efficient device which may be used indoors or out of doors for a small childs play yard or garden.
A further object, is the provision of a simple and efficient device of the character mentioned which can be quickly and easily taken apart and put together.
A still further object is the provision of a simple and efficient device of the character mentioned which can be folded into a small space for transportation and storage.
ing
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
An embodiment of my invention "is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forma part of this specification, and in whic Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a childs garden embodying my invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of a half of the garden folded for transportation or storage; and
Fig. 3 is a fragmental plan view showing a corner portion of the device with a part broken away to show underlying parts.
It is desirable in many homes to have a place for the small childs play things and where the child can play with them. This improvement is a device of this character which may be placed in any convenient part of the home or garden.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, I have indicated a garden, or the'like,
suitable for a child having four side portions with each of these side portions made up of a bottom rail 4:, a top rail 5, and spin dles or standards 6. The rails 4 and 5 may be of wood or any desired material. 1 prefer to form the spindle 6 of metal, but these may also be made of any desired material.
The spindles may be attached to the rail 4 and 5 in any desired manner. I have inserial N0. 549,977.
dicated a construction in which the ends of the spindles are held by friction or an adhesive in recesses in adjacent sides of said rails e and 5. The recesses in which the spindes 6 are disposed may be formed of a size so that when the spindles 6 are forced into them a rigid construction will be had. Each of the four sides is substantially alike.
The sides of the garden preferably have hinges 7 connecting the four sides in two pairs, as clearly indicated in Figs. 1 and 2. The hinges 7 may be of any approved construction. 1 preferably arrange the sides so that the rails 4 and 5 in one side will overlap the ends of the corresponding rails in the other side, as clearly indicated. This gives a construction in which the overlapping portions 8 help to brace the construction, thereby lending rigidity to it.
The other corners of the garden are held together by bolts or rods, preferably pivotally mounted. The connection last referred to comprises a art 9 attached to one of the rails 1 or 5 an has a hinge connection 10 at one end, to which is attached a rod'or bolt 11. On each of the rods 11 is threaded a thumb nut 12. When the device is set up, as indicated in Fig. 1, the rods 11 on one pair of sides engages suitable openings 13 in the other pair of sides, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 3. When it is desired to set up the device the parts are placedin the positions indicated in Fig. 1 and the pins inserted in the openings 13. The nuts are then adjusted into position to bind the parts tightly to- I gether. p
When it is desired to take the device down for moving it about or for storing or shipping, the two sides of each pair of sides are folded together, as indicated in Fig. .2. The rodsll are then inserted in the openings 13 in the same pair of sides. The nuts are then attached which bind the two sides of the pair tightly together, see Fig. 2.
This construction permits the device to be quickly and easily folded or as quickly and easily set up for use when desired;
1 claim A childs garden comprising a plurality of side walls; hinges attached to adjacent ends of each set of two side walls connecting said side Walls in pairs, there being a transverse opening in one remote end of each pair of said side Walls; and a pin pivotally connected to the'other remote end of each pair of said Walls, the pin on each pair of Walls being adapted to engage the opening in another pair of Walls When in one position and adapted to engage the opening in its own pair of Walls when in another position.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification on this 4th day of April, A. D. 1922.
LEWIS P. SITTIG.
