Description
UNITED STATES PATENT QFFICE.
RUDOLPH SPRIGADE AND JOHN SOHNOERING, OF BROOKLYN, E. D., N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN FOLDING TABLES.
Specification formingpart of Letters Patent No. 162,865, dated May 4, 1875; application led March 29, 1875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, RUDOLPH SPRIGADE and JOHN SGHNOERING, of Brooklyn, E. D., Kings county, New York, have invented a new and Improved Folding Table, of which the following is a specilieation:
Figure l represents a vertical longitudinal section on the line c c, Fig. 2, of our improved folding table; Fig. 2, a bottom view; and Fig. 3 a side view of the same as folded together.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The object of our invention is to furnish an improved table for hotel and family use, that may be readily folded together into narrow compass so as to be conveniently carried, stored, packed, and shipped.
Our invention consists of atable with longitudinal top sect-ions, hinged to folding-leg sections, and locked by hinged side-boards, and a pivoted lateral piece for retaining the tableseotions when in open position.
In the dra-wing, A represents the longitudinal top'sections of the table, which are centrally divided to be of equal size, and connected by tongues and grooves in the usual manner when thrown into position for use. The lateral leg-sections B are also centrally divided into equal parts and hinged together, the parts again hinged to the ends of the table-sections, so that the table and leg-sections `may be firmly folded together by swinging them around the stronger hinge-joints a of the legsections. The longitudinal sideboards O are hinged to the under side of the table-sections, and fitted by dove-tailed ends into corresponding recesses of the leg-sections so as to bind firmly thereon and retain them in positionwhen open. The side-boards c are finally locked in position by a pivoted lateral center-piece D, that is turned from its longitudinal position at the under side of onetable section into lateral position, imparting a firm and stable connection to the whole table.
AStop-pins b define the different positions ot' the center-piece. For folding the table the center-piece is swung into longitudinal direction, the side-boards are turned up to the under side of the table-sections, the leg-seetions carried over the same, and then folded together with the top into a very compact shape, as shown in Fig. 3, so as to be quickly and readily removed and stored out of the way. Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pl'DeIlIJ- A folding table composed of longitudinallydivided top-sections with hinged centrallydivided leg-sections, hinged side-boards, and pivoted locking center-piece, arranged for opening and folding, substantially as specified.
