R. DOOLEY GLIDER Filed Jan. 2, 1925 W l'i l W ff fr Patented July 14, 1925.
UNITED STATES RICHARD DOOLEY, F MERIDEN, CONNECTICUT.
GLIDER.
Application filed January 2, 1925. Serial No. 143.
To all whom it 'may concern.'
Be it known that I, RICHARD DooLEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Meriden, in the county of New I-Iaven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Gliders; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the characters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this application, and represent, in-
F ig. 1 a side view of a glider constructed in accordance with my invention, and shown in position in the lower face of a metal support.
Fig. 2 an underside view of the same.
Fig. 3 a sectional View of the support, with the glider removed.
Fig. l a. sectional view of the glider detached.
This invention relates to improvement in gliders, that is, devices applied to the legs of furniture, in place of casters, to permit the furniture to bc readily moved. These gliders (have been provided with prongs adapted to be driven into wooden legs, but it is desirable to provide metal furniture with gliders, and the object of this invention is to proif'ide a glider which may be readily applied to metal furniture, and the invention consists in the construction as will be hereinafter' described and particularly recited in the claim.
In carrying out my invention, I employ a plate 5, substantially rectangular, and in the center I form a depression 6, which provides a corresponding projection 7 upon the outer surface and which projection forms a bearing. The opposite edges 8 and 9 of the plate are turned upward and bent toward each other, and adapted to enter undercut grooves l0 and l1 in the under-face of metal supports l2, the grooves 10 and 11 entering through one edge of the support, so that the glider may be readily positioned.
If necessary, the plate 5 may be formed with a perforation 13 for the reception of a pin, by which the plate may be locked in position, although usually the device will stay in place by friction, as there is more or less spring to the edges 10 and 11 of the plate.
This device provides a glider' adapted particularly for metal furniture.
A glider, comprising` a metal plate having two straight ends, the edges of which are parallel, said plate formed with a downwardly-projecting, centrally-arranged mounting-surface, and the two straight ends of the plate turned upward and inclined toward each other substantially as described.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
RICHARD DOOLEY.
