EXTENSION TABLE.
Application filed March 23, 1923. Serial No. 627,144.
This invention relates to extension tables, and more particularly to a table in which the extension leaves are permanently assembled with the remainder of the table structure, being adapted to be independently brought into position for use or to be housed out of the Way beneath the main leaves of the table topv when not required for use.
One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a novel means for storing the extension leaves of the table beneath the main leaves, in a compact manner and scl; that their presence will not be noticea le.
Another object of the invention is to provide a novel form of hinge by which the ex-' tension leaves are connected with the means provided for their storage, the hinge being so constructed as to permit of the extension leaves being bodily shifted to assume the required positions when elevated for use or collapsed for storage.
Another object of the invention is to provide a novel form of hinge connection between the relatively foldable sections of each extension leaf, the connection being such that the leaf sections may lie in flat mutual contact ,when collapsed and stored away, thereby occupying a minimum space, and will present a smooth upper surface when elevated to position for use so as to avoid the presence of any inequalities in the surface of the spread table. y
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a plan view of an extension tableembodying the invention, the extension leaves being adjusted to position for use;
Figure 2 is a detail vertical transverse sectional view on the line 2-2 of Figure 1 with the extension leaves in the position stated;
Figure 3 is a similar view illustrating the extension leaves stored away;
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the storage tray for the extension leaves;
Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 2 illustratingra modified form of the invention. o
'[nthat form of the invention shown in Figures 1 ;to 4, inclusive, the table is illus trated as comprising main leaves 1 which may be ofany desired marginal contour and 7 whichare fixedly secured to the upper sides of side rails 2 and 3, the opposite sides of these rails being formed with longitudinal the respective pairs of rails 2 and 3. The
Each extension leaf is indicated in general by the numeral 9 and comprises two' counterpart'sections, indicated by the numeral 10. These sections at their meeting ends are formed. with relatively narrow incisions 11 in which are received hinges 12 which serve to hingedly or foldably connect the said sections 10. The hinges 12 are preferably of the form illustrated in the drawings andv each comprises a link .13 of flat. form provided with a longitudinally medially extending slot 14, the links preferably having roundedends 15 to permit of free pivotal movement of the parts. Pintle pins16 are fixed in the leaf sections 10 and extend across the incisions 11 therein and through the slots in'the hinge links. The links 13 are of a width not greater than the thickness of the leaf sections 10 and are so pivotally engaged with the pintle pins 16 that their upper edges will lie flush with the upper surfaces of the said leaf sections 10 when the leaf sections are in the elevated position shown .in Figure 2 of the drawings, thereby providing a smooth and unbroken surface. Due
tothe character of the hinges 12, great freev hinges to lie fiat upon each other in the mannershown in Figure 3 when the extension leaves are to be stored away. The extension leaves and the main leaves will be provided with dowels l7 and sockets 18 so that when the extension leaves are elevated, the interfitting of these parts will serve'to sustain the leaves in the elevated position.
In order that the extension leaves may be suitably connected with the storage tray 5 in a manner to insure of proper positioning of the leaves when they are elevated for use or collapsed for storage and yet permit of their sliding movement when such adjustment is required, a hinge connection is pro vided between each extension leaf and the bottom 6 of the tray 5 and comprises a fixed hinge leaf 19 secured in any desired manner to the under side of one of the extension leaf sections 10 at the hinged inner end thereof the leaf 19 being provided with a pintle 20 supporting a pintle pin 21. A second hinge leaf'22 is pivoted to the pintle pin 21 at one of its ends andat itscother endis pivoted to an'anchoring member 23 conip-rising a base portion24c and, a pintle 25, the said pintle 25 supporting apintle p-in 26to, which the lower orv last mentioned end of the leaf 22 is, as stated, pivotally connected. The anchoring members 23' areslidably engaged in some? formed in the bottom 6 of the tray 5,. the said members 23 having shank portions 28 connecting their pintles 25 and bases at and these shank portions being receivedv in the said slotsas stated; In this manner the anchoring members are supported upon the botto1n6 of the tray for sliding movement thus permitting of shifting of the extension leave-s; By reference to Figure 3 of the drawings it will be observed that ,whenthe extension leaves are not in actual use they may be stored away. within the storage tray 5' by folding the sections 10 upon the hinge links '12 to assume a position lying flato'neupon the other, the hinge leaf 22 being movable'about the pintle pins 21 and 26 so as to permit of the lower section of the extension leaves, Vin:this position of adjustment, overlying and resting upon the pintle 25 of the respective anchoring member 23. When either or both of the extension leaves is required for use, the sec tions comprising the same are swung and elevated to assume the position shown in Figure 2 of the drawings and the leaf is bodily slid, toward one or the other of the main leaves of the table top.
In the previously described form of'the invention the tray 5 and the extension leaf sections and their connections-are all per: manently built into the table structure, but in the form of the invention shown in Figure 5 the tray, the leaves, and the connections constitute in themselves a unitary structure which is attachable to any exten-'. sion table, the sides of the tray which are in this instance indicated by the numeral 7 being secured in any suitable manner as, for example, by screws 7 to the inner slides of the table.
It will be understood that if desired, the
7 tray 5 comprising theobottom 6 and the side members by which it is supported, may be adapted-tosubstantially any extension table by disposing the said tray with its said sides extending between the slides of the said table and with the tray resting upon or se-v I cured-to the bridging which is'fastened to the slide guide at either end: Itwilhalso be understood that the bottom, oftlie tray may be of wood or of inetaleitheras prea" ferred;
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is 1. In an extension table, the combination with the main leaves ofthe top, and,the assoa,
