CHARLES J. GEISER, 0F LANDER EVYQMING.
SHOE-SHINING STAND.
Application filed July 26, 1921. Serial ll'o. 87,703.
T0 aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES J. GEISER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lander, in the county of Fremont and State of Wyoming, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Shining Stands, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in shoe shining stands especially adapted for use in private homes, apartments and hotels.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a neat and ornamental stand which may be employed as a table or bench when the shoe shining apparatus is not in use.
Another object of the invention is to provide a stand which will include an adjustable foot rest which may be moved into operative position when the shoes are to be shined and which may be entirely hidden from view when the apparatus is not in use.
The invention further aims to provide a novel arrangement of parts whereby the apparatus may be locked in operative position and easily moved to inoperative position.
Other objects of the invention will appear upon consideration or" the following detail description and accompanying drawings wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of the apparatus showing the top cover opened and the shoe shining stand exposed in operative position,
Figure 2 is a transverse section through the same,
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the locking apparatus, and
Figure 4: is a. detail view of the member with which the locking apparatus engages.
Referring to the drawings by numerals, the stand consists of the legs 1 and the top 2 which is substantially rectangular in formation and is provided with a central opening 3. From the bottom of the top member 2, a housing 4 is suspended which consists of a box like structure of any desired siZe having its upper marginal edge fixed to the table top around the marginal edge of the opening 3. The opening 3 is normally closed by a hinged cover 5 which isadapted to fit in the opening so that the top of the table or bench will have a neat and uninterrupted surface whereby the top may be employed to support suit cases or. other articles.
Mounted for vertical sliding movement within the housing l is a receptacle 5 which that the foot rest 7 may be raised or lowered above or below the opening 3 in the table top.
Mounted upon one wall of the receptacle 5 is a locking device 8 shown in detail in -Fig. 3 which consists of the lock casing 9 having flanges 10 whereby fastening mem bers may be employed to secure the lock casing to the wall of the receptacle 5. Mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in thelock casing 9 is a locking bolt 11 provided with an operating finger 12 which projects through a longitudinal slot 13 in the lock casing. The locking bolt 11 i provided with a coil spring on the interior of the lock casing whereby the end of the looking bolt is normally urged to operative position. The wall of the receptacle 4: in the path of movement of the locking bolt 11 is provided with a longitudinal strip 14 having an pening 15 to receive the end of the locking bolt 11 when the receptacle 5 is elevated to its uppermost position so that the-locking bolt 11 will automatically spring into the opening 15 and thus maintain the receptacle 5 in an elevated position as shown in Fig. 2 whereby the foot rest 7 will be exposed to permit the user to place his shoe upon the foot rest for shining and polishing his shoes.
The receptacle 5 naturally may be employed to contain the material necessary for cleaning the shoes. The receptacle 5 fits snugly within the housing 4: so that when the locking bolt 11 is released by the operation of the finger member 12, the receptacle 5 will not suddenly drop and strike against the bottom of the housing at but, by virtue of the air compression between the bottom of the receptacle and the bottom of the housing the receptacle will gradually drop into position without any jar or nolse occurring.
Minor changes may be made in the details of construction without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the claims hereunto appended.
What is claimed is 1. An apparatus of the character described comprising a table having an opening in its top, a cover normally closing the said opening and adapted to swing to open position, a housing attached to the top of the table around and beneath the said opening, a sliding receptacle within the said housing, a foot rest mounted within the receptacle and adapted to project upwardly through the opening in the table top when the receptacle is elevated, and means to maintain the receptacle in elevated position.
2. An apparatus of the character described comprising a table having its top provided with an opening, a receptacle, a housing attached to the table top and adapted to receive the said receptacle whereby the latter may be vertically raised and lowered within the housing, a foot rest, a pedestal supporting the foot rest and attached within the said receptacle, a locking bar, and a locking rod mounted in a locking casing and adapted to engage the locking bar whereby the said receptacle may be held in a raised position Within the housing.
3. In an apparatus of the character described, a table provided with an opening in its top, a cover normally closing the said opening and adapted to swing to open position, a housing suspended from the table top beneath the said opening, a receptacle mounted for vertical movement within the housing and equipped with a foot rest supported within the receptacle, a locking bar attached" to one side of the said housing, a lock casing mounted in the receptacle and including a spring pressed locking bolt adapted to engage the locking bar to support the receptacle when the latter is raised Within the housing, and means to manually operate the said locking bar to release the locking bar from the said locking bolt.
In testimony whereof, I have ailixed my signature in the presenceof two witnesses.
