Sewing-Machine Table.
\NVENTU WIT NE 555 '5- UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
FRANCIS R. WOLFINGER, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SEWING-MACHINE TABLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 163,347, dated May 18, 1875 application filed March 10, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANoIs It. WOL- FINGER, of Chicago, in the county of (look and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sewing- Machine Tables; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being'had to the accompanying drawings which form part of this specification.
My invention relates to sewing-machine tables, having for its object to improve the construction of the same, whereby they are simple and convenient and durable in use; and it consists in providing in a cabinet or table for sewingmachines, a leaf hinged to the back part of the writing desk, and a hinged bed-plate combined, whereby the device canbe used wholly for a writing-desk or a sewing-machine, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
The accompanying drawings represent my invention.
a represents an ordinary cabinet or frame for a sewing-machine. At or near the center of the table I) the part c, that forms the bedplate of the machine, is hinged at one of its edges, so that when the machine is not in use it can be swung downward into the cabinet, in the usual manner, so as to be out of the way. Formed on the rear edge of the cabinetframeais the part c, which serves as the back part of a writing-desk, and to its front edge is hinged the lidf, which extends forward to the front of the table, and thus forms a writin g-desk, when themachine is dropped down below the level of the table. The lid f, when the machine is to be used, is lifted up and laid back over the part c, to make room for the machine when turned up from under the table. Fastened under the leaf or lid f, and near its sides, are the pieces l, which extend from the front backward to where the lid is hinged, and are formed at their rear ends to lit the ornamental parts at the front edges of e in the shape of an are or any other form, as shown. By thus forming a joint at the union of the parts 0 and l the part I, which forms the sides of the writing-desk when the lid is down, is lifted up with the lid, so as to be out of the way when the machine'is to be used.
In the top and bottom edges of the doors 9 are grooves 0, by which the pins 43, projecting from under the top of the table and from the bottom of the frame, guide the doors when drawn out or pushed into the sides of the cabinet; and these pins serve both as stops, to prevent the doors from being drawn out too far, and also as pivots, upon which the doors turn when opened or shut. This arrangement allows the doors to be pushed into the sides of the cabinet out of the way of the operator.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- In a cabinet or table for sewing machines, the combination of the part 6, leaf f, hinged thereto, and the hinged bed-plate 0, whereby the cabinet can be used wholly for a writingdesk or a sewing-machine, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 4th day of March, 1875.
FRANCIS R. VVOLFINGER.
