Application filed May. '2;
To all whom it may concern: Q
- Beit known that I, EVERETT L. CALvnRT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Denver, in the county of Denver and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combination Camp Tables and Utensil Carriers,of which'the following is a specification.
This invention relates (to folding tables wherein the table itself becomes a receptacle dishes and other utensils to table and is adapted particularly for usewith automobiles or the like.
The primary objecfiof my invention isto provide a' simple, light weight and efiicient folding table having means provided for supporting e eating and cooking utensils within said table when folded and upon the under side thereof when open for. use.
Another object of my invention is to provide clips or holders for the utensils, so con structed that the utensils may readily be removed from their suspended position on theunder side of said table, only as they are required for use on the table top and While the table is in use. a
Still another object of my invention is to provide a folding'table of this character maximum storage capacity by reason of thewhich maybe' manufactured at comparatively low cost, is neat and attractive in appearance and while occupying but small space when folded will always develop its Y arrangement of the utensil supporting clips and because of the fact that the utensils can.
be readily placed in their prearranged order within said clips.
.A further object is-to provide a device of this character which is capable of being readily and quickly extended or folded asrequired and having means whereby the two portions of the table top and the legs hinged thereon may be all rigidly locked together to form a rigid and serviceable camp table. In the use of my invention, many other' objects and advantages embodied in the con- 1 will now proceed to describe my inven tion with re erence .to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof.
In these drawings, Fig. I is a perspective view of my improved device extended to form a table, ready for use.
Fig. 2 isa perspective view of the device folded ready for carrying.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the device t partially open, but place. This view shows the clips holding the utensils upon the'interior or under side of the table.
Fig. 4 isadetailview ofthe leg pivot and brace. 6 Fig. 5 is a detail view "of the lock for rigidly locking the table top in the extended position. I v
Fig.6 is a detail view of an alternate form of lock for the same purpose. F Corresponding and like parts are referred to1inthe following specification and india cated in all views of the accompanying draW- 1 ing by the same reference characters.
. in itself a shallow box, oneface of which is open. One, of the side pieces. 10 of the half 7 of the top is pivotally connected to one of the side pieces 12 of the half 8- of the top by means of hinges 13.
In each corner of thehalves 7 and Saw'ay.
ivoted from the hi ngedk sides thereofare ach of legs 14 by means of pivot pins 15. I
the legs 14, is provided with a'brace'lod 16, v
pivoted thereto as shown at 17 (Fig. 4).' The end of the brace rod 16 away from the pivot is turnedat right angles as shown at 18., This portion of the brace rods 16 is adapted to he slipped into staples or sleeves 19, when the legs 14 are in the extended positionthereby preventing them from folding. In order to place the bent portions of the brace rods 16 in thesleeves 19, the rods must be forced outwardly. of the rods therefor prevents them frombecoming disengaged from the sleeves. v
When the two halves 7 and 8 of the table top are opened sufficiently to occupy the same plane, bolts 20 and 21, carried inblocks 22 and 23 upon end pieces 9 and '11 respeee tively, are forced .into"registering openings in blocks 24: "and 25, mounted on end pieces -11 and 9 respectively, therebyholding the two portions of the table top rlgidly-- in the same plane. The outer end of bolts-20 and 21 is turned at right angles to form a han with the legs folded into 60 Let the'numeral 7 designate a one-half. 7
The natural elasticity. 9 N
' did When the bolt is not in use this handle with three openings 30, 31 and 32. adapted to rests in a groove formed in b locks=26 and -'27, mounted on end pieces 9 and. 1-1. This I prevents-the bolts fromprotruding from the table when in the closed position.
Another form f lock for accomplishing the samepurpose is shown in Fig. 6 of the drawing. This consists of' a flat strip 28, formed of spring steel or similar substance, which is pivoted asshownat 29 and normally lies along the end piece- 9 as shown by the brokenlinesf Strip. 28 is provided dowel pins 33, 34.
register with and fit over natural elasticity and '35 respectively. The
of the strip 28 holds it upon the pins untll,
it israised therefrom and returned to its normal position along end pieces 9.
Side piece is provided witha handle 36 adaptedto lie against a similar handle 37 mounted on side piece 12. Thetwo han- ,upon another. The knives, forks,
etc are placed within a cloth container h the above articles are e held in place by means of clips or supports v -formed of relatively heavy wiresof spring brass or steeljorsimilar substance. The
dles togetherv form the handle for carrying the device. The side piece 10 also carrieshooks 38 which enga e in eyes39 upon side piece 12 and hold the two halves of the table top, in the closed position. Methodically arranged upon the inside of the case, which becomes when extended the 7 under side of the. tble, arexthe necessary I on the drawing being, a thermos bottle 40,
cooking and eatingi tensils'. Those shown frying pans 41, cups 42, dishes 43, pans and skillets 44, can opener 45, salt and pepper containers 46; pitcher 48. Several pans could be arranged one within the other and several dishes one shown at 49. All of I cups, salt, pepper andsugar containers and sugar -container 47 and spoons,
j Y e pitcher" are heldin yokes of 'thiswire artially surrounding.them. The other articles are held by means of rlngs tot-wire pressing them against the tables All of the utensil holders are made sufi ciently strong to support the article securely '60 Having thus described my'invention, what I claim anddesire' to secure byLetters Pat- I In a collapsible camp table, the combina-,-
tion of a pair ofhinged, open-faced, box-i to' form a table top;
like sections adapted v Whenopenand a container when closed; a
bolt secured to. the end member ofone of said sections and adapted to engage an opening formed. on the end member of the opposite section for the purpose of holding said sections extended, said bolts having shaped ends adapted to in the Withdrawn position; resilient arms seand adapted to extend fit into groovesprovided for the purpose of holding said bolts 756" cured to the side members of said sections parallel to said top 4 and hold eating utensils against said top and legs pivotally connected to said sides.
