E. DEINHART PEDESTAL Fi1e d June 4, 1923 g: i il Q I n. w" J M 1 HM. 1 Z J 2 jnz/eizzr "2 Mia Patented July 21, 1925.
UNITED srares EDWARD DEINHART, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
rnnnsmn. j i
Application filed June l,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD Dnrnrmnr, a citizen of' the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pedestals of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates in a general way to certain improvements in-the construction of a support in the nature of a pedestal tabouret or the like.
The general objects of the invention are the provision of an improved construction for an article'of the sort described whereby it may be manufactured economically given a good surface finish with facility, stored or packed for shipment in minimum space and assembled easily and quickly by use of ordinary tools to form a stable and durable article adapted for the uses specified.
A more particular object is the provision of an improved construction for an article of the sort described whereby the several parts may be positively and securely connected and all of the connecting means concealed from view on any of the surface portions when the article is in use.
Other and further objects of the invention will be pointed out hereinafter, indicated in the appended claims, or obvious upon an understanding of the present disclosure.
In the drawing forming a part of this specification I have shown one particular de sign of pedestal or tabouret in which the structural features constituting my invention are incorporated, but it is to be understood that this disclosure is made here simply for the purpose of illustration, and that the invention is susceptible of embodiment in. a multiplicity of other and different forms; wherefore the present disclosure is not to be construed as limiting the invention short of its true and most comprehensive scope in the art.
In the drawings-- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a pedestal embodying my invention;
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal or sectional elevation of the same;
Fig. 3 is a cross-section on line 33 of Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a detail in the nature of a section on the line H of Fig. 2. t
An understanding of the features of construction comprising the invention may best 1923. Serial No. 643,176. I i i be had by reference to the drawing in detail. It will be understoodthat the invention contemplates the provision of some sortof base member 1 of sufficient area to afford the requisite support for the article. This base member may be provided with foot portions 2 adapted to sustain the base portion on a suitable supporting surface. Permanently secured to the base portion is a fillet'or reglet member 1-, which may be formed convcn- E153 iently as a separate piece of proper contour and thickness and permanently secured to the base member 1 in coaxial relationship.
A top member 5, preferably having a flat upper surface is provided, and to it is permanently connected a fillet member 6. Within this fillet member is formed a cavity in which is housed a nut 7, which is retained in place by the fillet member and the top member and which is held against rotation by the walls of the cavity in which it is housed. The fillet member 6 is bored through to provide a channel through which access may be had to the threaded aperture of the nut 7 and the conjoined base 1 and fillet member 4 are similarly bored to afford a channel-way through them which may align with the channel-way in the fillet memher 6. A column member 8, of proper design to match with the top and base portions is formed with a longitudinal channel way adapted to align with the channelways in the last mentioned members,the ends of said column member being adapted to abut the faces of the fillet members 4- and DH 6. This column member may be formed conveniently of two sections rabbeted longitudinally on a median line and secured together with the rabbet channels in register, or it may be formed advantageously as an 9 integral piece bored longitudinally. The parts as thus constructed may be handled and worked upon with facility to give them a good surface finish desirable in furniture or fixtures. They also may be installed or 109 packed for shipment in this separate condition, wherein they may be disposed in minimum space. They are adapted, however, to be assembled quickly and with facility by use of an ordinary wrench, a single connecting member being employed for the connec tion of all three parts. This connecting member is in the nature of a rod 10 screwthreadecl at both ends and of proper size to pass through the channehways in the several 110 members and to be screw-seated in the nuts 7. In the assembly of the device one end of the rod is first introduced into the fillet member 6 and screwed into the nut 7. The shaft member 8 is then placed upon the rod, followed by the base portion, and finally a washer 11 and nut 12 are placed upon the lower end of th rod and drawn up snugly against the base member 1. This clamps the three parts together firmly, affording a stable and permanent connection, permitting, however, their disassembling if desired. When the article occupies its intended position for use, none of the fastenings are exposed, as the members 11 and 12 are hidden by the base, while any fastenings such as the screws 14 may be disposed so that they are covered by the shaft portion 8. T he construction, therefore, is adapted particularly for use in articles made of wood on which it may be desired to employ simply an oiled or natural wood finish. By the use of positive connections for all parts the structure is not susceptible to the failure of the joints as frequently occurs where the parts are joined by glue.
1 claim:
In an article of the class described, the combination of a top member, a base member, fillet members, fastenings securing said fillet member respectively to said top and base members, a shaft member having end surfaces arranged to abut said fillet members, a nut housed between the conjoined fillet and top members and retained thereby against rotation, said fillet members, base and shaft members being provided with aligning channel-ways, a rod detachably screw-seated in the nut and extending through said channel-ways, and a second nut screw-seated on the rod and cooperating with the base member to clamp the shaft member between the fillet members with the ends of the shaft member covering said fastenings.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name.
EDVARD DEINHART.
