COLLAPSIBLE CLOTHES CABINET.
Application filed .Tune 19, 1922. Serial No. 569,284.
. To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, loi-IN` HENRY HYAMS, a `citizen of the United States of America, and resident of the city of Chicago, in the State of Illinois, United States of America, have `invented certain new and useful Improvements in CollapsibleClothes Cabinets,
of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to collapsible clothes cabinets, and has for its objects to Vprovide an improved cabinet wherein Ameans are adapted to receive clothes, and to pro vide a hat receptacle within the clothes cabinet.
'1 Further objects areto provide an improved ,collapsibleV clothes cabinet comprising a Ycasing pivotally mounted to a supporting board and a framework in the casing'carryinglclothes hooks and rods, to provide a supporting arrangement carried by the board'and casing anddesigned to retain th'eflcasing in right angular position relatively to the board, to provide a bracket designed to engage a U-shaped member on the casing in order! to support the cabinet on a vertical surface, such as a wall or' other suitable supports. l
A further object is to provide a means o-f 'attaching aV curtain and drape around the 30A cabinet in order to enhance the -appearance of the same.
'Further vobjects are to provide an improved collapsible clothes cabinet that is simple in construction, not liable to go out of repair, and generally to adapt the several parts tobetter perform the functions required of them.
` With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists essentially of the improved construction hereinafter described inl detail'in the accompanying specication and drawings.
In the drawings; Figure 1 is a perspective view of the 'improved clothes cabinet in working or un `folded position.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section through the same.
Figure 3 i's a section on theline 3-3 of Figure2.V V Y VFigure f'is a fragmentary perspective viewshowing the framework inside the casing.
Figure 5 is a fragmentaryV perspective of a portion ofthe frame showingthe means of supporting the foldable legs.
.responding parts in all the figures.
Referring to the drawings, A represents the improved cabinet. comprising a supporting' board 10 to which is pivotally mounted as at 11 a casing 12. Mounted in the casing is a framework 13 intermediate of the length of which on each side are connected links 14, the opposite end of each whichis adapted to be connected to a bolt 14a carried by an anchoring post 15 on the board 10.
The bolts 14a of the anchoring posts 15 carry supportin members 16 which support a clothes rod 1i. The clothes rod 17 has its two ends formed with pintles 18 designed to engageY holes formed at t-he ends of two supporting brackets 19 and 20, which are pivotally secured to the framework 13. The board 10 carries a shoulder 21 on which is mounted the bottom 22' of a hat box 23. Other members 24 and 25 are provided on the board 10 being located at right angles to the shoulder 21 and to which members are hingedly connected the two sides or flaps 26 and 27 of the hat box.
The member 25 is larger than the member 24@ so that the hinged point of the flap 26 is lower than the hinged point of the Hap 27. Byjnieans of this arrangement when the flap 26 is folded down, the flap 27 may Abe folded down on top of the flap 26. In Vlike manner lthe shoulder 21 is thicker than the member 25 and the bottoni 22 of the 4hat box maybe folded on top of the flap 27, when the cabinet is to be collapsedl The board 10 is provided at its upper end with a U-shaped element 28 designed to engage Vtwo ngers 29 and 30 carried Vby a bracket 31, which can be secured to a wall or other vertical support.
The top of the casing 12 is formed with 'a flange, 32`vin which a plurality of hooks y is obvious that any numberfof these hooks tend towards the front of the cabinet and are hemmed as at 36 in order to engage a rod or pole 37, which has a squared end 38, and a pintle formed on its opposite end. The pintle is designed to engage a hole in the forward end of the'framework 13, while the squared end 38 is adapted to be engaged by a notch39 also formed in the framework 13 at the forward end thereof.
By means of this arrangement vift is obvious that the two front `portions of the curtains 34 and 35 may be slid on the rod or pole 37 so that access may be had unden nealth the casing into the cabinet.
rIhe framework .13 carries a plurality of hooks designed to receivey clothes, and it may be provided extending inwardly of the framework 13.
.In Vorder to enhance the 'appearance of the cabinet, a drape 40 may be provided at the top end of the cabinet and vformed C with button holes designed to engage the Vhooks 33 on the flange 32 of the casing. 25
The rear ends ofthe drape 40 are secured to "a lace 41, lthe two ends of 'which lace may vbe tied yas at 42'after the casing has been set up. The lower end of the board A10 is equipped with `a pair of set screws 43, the :ends o-f which are designed to bear against the wall or other supporting member for the casing in order 'to posi-tion the board V10 parallel to the wall.
When Ithis improved collapsible yclothes cabinet is to be put up, the casing A as shown at Figure 8 vis placed with the board downwardly, and the casing being pivoted on its hinge. is brought at right angles to the boardl The arms or links 14 are then brought down and engaged with t-he lbolts 14a. The clothes rod 17 is then turned into normal position, and its end pintles 18 are brought into engagement with the retaining members 19 and v20.
The hat box 23 is then formed by unfolding the bottom 22 and the flaps 27 andl28 which are then secured together by means of suitable hooks 44 carried by theV bottom 22 and engaging the pegs 45 provided on the flaps 26 and 27. The folding legs 46 4which are pivoted to the inside of the casing as at 47 are then pivoted downwardly in order .to support the casing which is then turned up in the position shown in Figure 4.
The curtain 34 is then engaged with the hooks at the top of the casing after which the curtain 35 vis similarly engaged with the hooks -on the opposite Vside of the flanged top of the casing, and the rear ends of the curtains 34 and .35 are butto-ned together at the rear of the casing.
The `curtain rod- 36 is then brought down and engaged with the hemmed portions of the curtains and 35 after which the rod `the bracket 3-1.
-structed without departing vfrom the spirit is returned into engagement with the forward end v'of the framework 13, vfthesoluared Y end of the pole or rod being engaged by the notch 39 of the framework. Y
The drape 40 is 'then secured on top of the curtains 34 and 35, and retained in position 70 through the lace 41 being knottedV as at 42. The cabinet 4is `then raised on the bracket 31 by bringing its U-shaped element 28 into engagement with the lfingers29 and 3Q 'of Y Y 75 lThe foidableV legs '46 which are not :now useful for any purpose, are folded' back gintoposition and retainedagainst the Vframework :13 by means of straps`48 which are vcarried by the Jframework and may be provided with studs'49 or-other fasteningidevice. Thecabinet is then 1in set position to be'used, fand the saine may be straightened up by means of the ladjustment screws v43 which engage Ithe wall or other support of the cabinet.
As :many changes could be made Ain the above construction, Yand many apparently Y widely dierent embodiments of my 'inven-- tion, within the scope of the jclaiin, `conor scope thereof,*it is intended that all matter containedin the accompanying specification and drawings shall be interpreted vasv .illustrative and not in a limiting.gsense.
`That I.claim as my inventionis: 95
