FURNITURE CABNET.
Application filed .Tune 3,
My invention relates to improvements in furniture cabinets and has to do more particularly with a piece of furniture preferably for household use, but adaptable also for oil/ice use, which may serve either as a typewriter enclosure and stand, or as a working stand and cabinet for sewing or other household work.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. l is a front elevation of an apparatus in its closed condition illustrating my invention; Fig. 2 is a side elevation partly in section of the apparatus of Fig. l looking from right to left with the front portion in a closed position; Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 with the front portion open and resting on its support; Fig. 4 is a sectional view in the line 4 of Fig. 3, looking downward, with the movable parts in open position; Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 3 with the front portion in half open position; Fig. 6 is a portion of the apparatus of Fig. 2 showing a modification. Y
Referring to the drawings, my apparatus consists of a box-like enclosure or cabinet l, having preferably four sides and supportedV on four legs, 2, which may extend either to the top of the cabinet (Fig. l) Or to the bottom thereof, as in Figs. 3, 5. The front section 3 of said box or cabinet is hung at the bottom by any suitable means to the body of said box or cabinet, such as pins 4. A knob 5 on the front 3 enables it to be easily opened and closed. A drawer G may be inserted in the frame and so arranged that when the front section 3 is opened outward and downward, it may be supported by 6 (Fig. Attached to said front part 3 is leaf or wing portion 7 by hinges 8 and leaf or wing portion 9 by hinges l10. Said leaf or wing portions may be of equal or of unequal'size, or one or both may be omitted, as in Fig. 3. Normally, said wings are folded over and lie on top of or against part 3, as in Figs. 2, 5 and 6. They arekopen in Fig. 4. One or more drawers ll may, if desired, be inserted in the upper part of the cabinet.
The drawer 6 may serve as a receptacle for paper or other articles, and also as a support for the front 3 when the latter is opened, as in Fig. 3. It is desirable that 6 should be drawn into its supporting position before part 3 is opened; and to this end notches 6a are cut in the sides of drawer 6, and the lower side of 3 is left with square 1926. i Serial No. 113,379.
edges, so that while 6 is closed (Fig. 2) the sides of drawer 6 are justV flush therewith, and 3 cannot be opened until 6 is drawn out with the notches 6a immediately below 3, as in Figs. 3 and 5. And, again, front 3 must be closed while drawer 6 is in its open position, for it cannot be closed while drawer 6 is closed. This arrangement prevents liability of unusual strain on pins 4 on which part 3 swings.
Fig. 6 shows a modification in which drawer 6 is replaced by two fiat bars O6 each sliding in and out of the cabinet to serve as supports for part 3 when opened. Each bar O3 has a notch 6L in such place that the bars must be drawn into supporting position before part 3 can be opened, and the latter must be closed beforethe bars are moved back into the cabinet.
rThe ,apparatus may be used for several purposes. It may be employed as a container and stand for a typewriter, the latter being entire-ly inclosed in the cabinet l when the front section 3 is closed, as in Fig. l, and moved forward to rest on said section 3 when the latter is opened into the position shown in Figs. 2 and 4; and in such use, one or both wings 7 and 9 may serve as convenient supports for writing paper and tools. Or it may serve as a writing desk, the box portion enclosing writing paper and tools when section 3 is closed, and the latter serving as a writing table when opened as in Figs. 3, 4. Or it may serve as a sewcrs cabinet, the materials, thread, needles, etc. being confined when the front section 3 is closed; and when the latter is opened, it. will make a convenient support for holding or cutting the cloth. Moreover', the apparatus when neatly made of hard wood or other suitable materialand with or without being decorated, becames an attractive article of furniture either for the home or for oiiice.
I claim:
1. An article of cabinet furniture having a box-like enclosure supported 0n legs vwith sides and back and a movable front held at its lower edge on which itvswings from vertical to horizontal position, and vice versa, supporting means movable into and out of said apparatus, independently of the movement of said front, and on which the latter may rest when in horizontal position, and means associated therewith for preventing said front from being swung into horizontal position until after said supporting` means have been moved into position to support the same.V
2. An article of cabinet furniture having a box-like enclosure supported onulegs7 With Vsides and back and a movable front'held at its lower edge on which it swings from vertical to horizontal position, and vice versa, supporting means for sustaining said front when in horizontal position, means associated therewith whereby said front may he lheld in vertical position until after said supporting,` means are in position ,to sustain the same; and a Wing hung to lavertical edge .of said front and adapted to open and enlarge the area thereof when in horizontal position.
8. An article of cabinet furniture having a box-like enclosure supported on four legs extendingto the top thereof and forming corner supports for its sides, a front portion hung at its loi'ver edge on which it swings from vertical to horizontal position, and vice versa, sliding means movable into and out of said article, independently of the movement of said frontI for support-ing said front when in horizontal position, and means associated therewith Iwhereby said front islield in vertical position until after said sliding' means have been moved to supportthe sanjxe when in its linrizontal position.
