Application filed January 25, 1926. Serial No. 83.5%.
My invention relates to combination chairs and telephone stands and has for an object to provide a structure by means of which the ordinary desk telephone may be con.
3 veniently supported and upon which the user may be seated while using the telephone.
Another object of the invention resides in providing a chair having; a shell" mounted upon the rear legs thereof and extending; outwardly beyond one of said to form a telephone support.
A still further object of the invention resides in providing' a pocket in the back of the chair for the reception of a telephone book which pocket becomes accessible through a slot in said shelf. p p
A still further feature of the invention resides in providing a sliding tray whlch may be used for holding); the telephone rehook of the telephone.
Other objects of the invention resides in the combination of parts and in the detailed construction thereof as illustratedand described in the following; drawingand spec ification and as particularly pointed Olli' lll the claims. 1
In the drawings:
stand in use. p p p Fig. 2 is a plan view of a portionof the structure showrr in Fig. 1, with thetelephone and book removed, and drawn to a somewhat enlarged scale.

foundflthat the. ordinary desk of privacy. In suchportions of the house it frequently happens that there does not exist sufiicient space for the installation of furniture or fixtures for the support and seating of the user so that the telcphone is frequently allowed. to stand upon the floor or to be otherwise supported in'a more or less unsatisfactory manner both as to apceiver when the same is not placed upon the.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my inr proved combination chair and telephone pearance and convenience. My invention provides an attractlve article of furniture which occupies a comparatively small amountof space and which may be readily positioned in such portions of a building in 60 which the telephone is usually situated and which serves to support the telephone both while it in use or disuse and which at the same time comfortably seats the user.
il [y invention comprises primarily a telephone stand A which includes a chair portion l? associated therewith. This structure cou'iprises front legs 10 and 11.1 and rear legs 12 and 13. The legs 10,11, 12 and 13 are connected together by means of upper rails l4 while the legs and 12 and the "l1 and 13 are connected together by cross rails 15. in addition, a brace 16 con nects the two rails ii") to provide a rigid and substantial structure. Upon the rails 14; is 75 attached a seat 1? which projects outwardly beyond the legs 10 and 11 and the rails 14. This seat is mortised into the legs 12 and 13 which extend upwardly beyond said seat to form a support for a back 18 to the chair 30 structure B. H
The upperportions 19 and 20 of the legs {13 are enlarged as indicated. in Fig. 1 and have positioned between them, two spaced partitions 21 and 22 arranged to form a vertical pocket 23. Upon the upper ends of portions l9and 20 of 12 and 13 is attached a shelf 24 which has an elongated portion 25 connecting said legs and which hasa circular portion 26 issuing}; outwardly beyond the leg; 19 on the exterior thereof. The partition 21 is rabbeted into the portion 25 of shelf 241-. and also into the seat 17 as indicated at 27 and 28; In a. similar manner, the partition 22 is rabbeted into the portion 25 of shelf 2 1- as indicated at 30 while the lower portion of said partition terminates a short distance above the rearward portion 31 of seat 17 to form a space 32 commun cating with the pocket 23. A slot 33 in the elongated portion 10 of shelf 24 communicates with pocket 23 and permits of in sorting a telephone boolr such as indicated at 34; in Fig. 1, into said poclret. It will be noted that the height of thebaclr. i8 is such that when the ordinary telephone 10 book is inserted into pocket 23. the lower edn e thereof rests upon the rearward portion 21 of seat 17 with the upper portion of said. telephone boot: projecting); a short distance above the shelf 24:. In this manner the telelie phone book is conveniently supported soathat the same may-be readily' graspedibyj'-its protruding portion and removed from the pocket when desired for use. The ening 32 communicating with pocket 23; a lowsth'c" dust, which may be accumulated within said pocket through the slot 33, to be removed from the rearward po1'tion-31-.of.seat l7- where the same would be apt to settle. 10
