PATENT OFFICE. A
CHARLES A. PETERSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
DRAWER ATTACHMENT FOR SINKS.
Application filed June 22, 1923. Serial No. 647,074.
1 '0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GHAnLns A. PETERSON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Drawer Attachments for Sinks, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to improvements in drawer attachments for sinks, and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements herein described and cla med.
An object of my invention is to provide a sink construction having means whereby one or more drawers may be carried by the sink,
thereby afl'mding a space for articles such as kitchen ware which would otherwise be wasted.
A further object of my invention is to provide a sink having means for support ng one or more drawers, these means costing very little more than the ordinary sink, and yet rendering the sink more salable because of the added convenience which the drawers give.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of the type described in which a plurality of drawers may be attached to a sink with very little eflort, and with relatively simple attaching means.
Other objects and advantages w1ll appear in the following specification, and the novel features of the invention will be particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings forming part of this 111- \811111011,111 which Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a plurality of drawers carried by a $111k,
Figure 2 is a sectional view showing the means for suspending the drawers,
Figure 3 is a sectional view at right angles to Figure 2, and
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional View of a portion of a modified form of the device.
In carrying out my invention I make use of a sink of any approved form. Such a sink is shown at S in Figure 1. The drain board of this sink is shown at D. Ordinarily the space below the drain board is unoccupied, and it is this space that I propose to utilize for the attachment of one or more drawers. The drain board D of the sink, a metal sink being used for the purpose of illustration, is provided with downwardly de pending flanges such as those shown at 1, 2, and 3. These flanges as will be seen from Figure 3 are designed to extend at right angles to the front line of the sink, and substantially the width of the drain board. The flanges 1 and 3 are Lshaped, and are turned inwardly toward one another. Tliec'enter flange 2 is of an inverted T-shape, the arms of the flanges extending toward theouter flanges 1 and 3 respectively. The flanges are preferably integral, although they may be secured to the sink structure after the sink is made.
Arranged to slide on the opposed flanges 1 and 2 is a drawer 4 having upper outwardly extending flanges 4 which are arranged to engage and be supported by the flanges l and 2. A drawer 5 has similar outwardly extending flanges 5 which engage the flanges 2 and 3, as shown in Figure 2. This provides means for supporting the drawers 4 and 5 and for permitting them to 1silide freely on the flanges carried by the sin In order to support a third drawer 6,
I make use of rods 7 which are screwed into the flanges 1 and 3. These rods are similar to stove bolts having heads 8. The rods pass through the lugs 9 which are struck out from a plate 10. This plate has flanges 11 which are bent upwardly as shown at Figure 3. The plate 10 is substantially the same size as the drawer 6. The latter is supported upon the plate 10 and is guided in its movements by the flanges 11. This forms a simple and economical construction for securing the drawer 6 underneath the drawers 4 and 5. Instead of using supporting flanges which are integral with the sink, I may make use of lugs such as that shown in Figure 4 at 12, these lugs being threaded to receive a bolt 13, the head 14 of which holds a bar or rod 15, running transversely of the sink, and at right angles to the front line thereof. The bar 15 may be used as the supporting member for the inturned flange 16 of the drawer side 16 which corresponds to the inturned flange at the tops of the drawers 4 and 5. In this construction, as in the one previously described, a a
especially desirable in kitchenettes or other places where space is at a premium. It will obviate the necessity of construction of other drawers in the space which is needed for other purposes. The invention utilizes the space which would otherwise be wasted. I am aware that inwardly turned flanges for supporting drawers are not of themselves broadly new, but I am'not aware of any sink construction in which provision is made for one or more tiers of drawers or for the supporting of drawers by the same in such a manner that one tier may be removed without interfering at all with the tier above it.
It is obvious that asingle drawer might be substituted for the two drawers 4 and 5, or two or more drawers might be supported by the means which supports the drawers (3 without departing from the spirit oi the invention.
I claim:
The combination with a sink having downwardly projecting flanges, said flanges having laterally extending portions serving as drawer supports, said portions having threaded openings therein, rods having threaded portions adapted to be screwe into said openings, a drawer-supporting plate supported by said rods, said plate having struck up flanges to act as drawer guides, portions of said flanges forming lugs, said lugs having openings therein to receive said rods so as to support said plate, and drawers carried by said first named flanges and by said plate.
