CABINET FURNITURE.
Application 'filed December 18, 1924. Serial No; 756,641.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EARLn W. CUMMINGS, citizen of the United .States, residing at Santa Barbara, county of Santa Barbara, State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cabinet Furniture, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its Object an article of furniture normally enclosed within a wall cabinet but which may be extended into the room While supported from the wall, or may be completely removed from the cabinet and used elsewhere.
The invention is particularly applicable to service boards such as ironing boards and the like.
A further object is an article of the char acter described which may be readily adjusted to different heights to suit the convenience of the operator.
Other objects will appear from the drawings and descriptions which follow.
Fig. l is a perspective view of an ironing board employing my invention and shown extended into the. room.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary side view of one of the sides of the cabinet, showing the tracking members.
Figs. 3 and 4 show the-ironing board being removed from the cabinet.
Throughout the figures similar numerals refer to identical parts.
The numeral 1 indicates a cabinet adapted to be fitted into a wall and between conventional studding, not shown but well known.
The cabinet is supplied with a door 2 and side walls 3, 4, respectively. On the side 3 is mounted a slotted tracking plate member 5 and there below another slotted tracking or guide plate member 6. On the side 4, similar tracking and guide members are provided at 7, 8, respectively.
At 9 is shown an ironing board which in this instance is the article of furniture adapted to be enclosed within the cabinet 1 or extended therefrom into the room as shown in F ig. 1. i
A supporting strut is shown at 10 and a smaller board, known as a sleeve board is shown at 11 hinged to the back of the cabinet 1 and normally restrained in vertical position by the button 12. The strut 10 is hinged at 13 to the board 9.
The tracking members 5, 7 are provided with a slot 14 having a plurality of socket port ons 15, 16, respectively and a lower portion 17, whereas the guide members 6, 8 are provided with a slot 18 open at the top and having .a corresponding plurality of seating recesses at 19, 20, respectively, spaced 1n accordance with the spacing of recesses 15 and 16 above described and extending opppsitely thereto with respect to the slots 18,
In the strut 10 are mortised the pivots 21, 22 which ride in the grooves 18 of the members 8 and 6 respectively.
Similar pivots are provided at 23, 24 on the ends of the ironing board and travel in the grooves 14 of the track members 7, 5 respectively.
When the board 9 pivoting in the upper recesses 15 is bodily raised to the most elevated position as shown in Fig. 3, the strut 10 is pulled upward until its pivots 21, 22 clear the slots 18 in the members 8, 6 respectively, and the strut may thereupon be pulled forward from the full line position to the dotted line position, Fig. 3. Board 9 may then be pulled forward and may be tilted sidewise as shown in Fig. 4: until its pivots 23, 24 clear the grooves lof the track plates 7, 5 respectively. This enables the article of furniture in this case the complete ironing board and its strut, to be re moved from the cabinet without disturbing the setting or adjustments of the various parts.
The boardmay be employed elsewhere in v the room as desired, and may be replaced in the Wall cabinet 1 by reversal of the operation just described. I
WVhei-e the board is to be employed without removal from the cabinet, it may be positioned either in the full line or dotted position of Fig. 2, to suit the height of the operator, thus the board may be removed from the dotted position of Fig. 2, to the full line position by slightly lifting the board and pressing the pivots 24L back into the slot 14 and raising the entire structure until the pivots fall within the recess 15 and simultaneously therewith the pivot'22 on the strut 10 will fall into the recess 19, thus anchoring the board in the raised or full line position. I
When the board is up ended the parts collapse completely within the cabinet 1 and the door 2 when closed presents a harmoni- 011s panel appearance in the room.
I claim:
1. The combination of a Wall cabinet and service board pivotally collapsible therein and extendible therefrom, pivotal projections from the cabinet end of the board engaging vertically arranged slots in the sides of the cabinet, a strut hinged at one end to the under side of the board and having pivotal projections at the other end engaging vertically arranged slots in the sides of the cabinet, the slots for the strut projections being open at their upper ends for tree removal of the strut projections from the slots and cabinet, and the strut being hinged to the board at a point so as to Withdraw the strut projections from their open slots upon raising the board to an elevated osition on its ivotal mountin 2. A device of the character described comprising a Wall cabinet, a pair of plates on opposite confronting sides thereof having vertically arranged slots therein with for- Wardly extending communicating recesses, a second pair of plates spaced ,bGlOW the first pair similarly slotted but with recesses eX- tending rearwardly and the slots open on top, a service board foldable into the cabinet having projections at one end engaging the slots in the first mentioned plates, and a strut hinged at one end to the board having projections at its other end engaging the slots in the second pair of plates, both strut and board projections being adjustable to the several recesses in their respective slots, the strut projections removable from the open ends of their slots and the board projections being removable from their slots by sidewise tipping of the board.
EAR-LE V. CUMMINGS.
