.:tonrs-nnnnnnr, or encontra', new ronds] CHAIR.
Application vled December 3., 1925. Serial No. 73,03*?.
An object of the present invention is to provide a chair so constructed that a number of the chairs may be conveniently nested for the purpose of storage.
A more specific object of the invention is to provide a non-folding sheet metal chair formed with inclined tapering legs adapted for nesting one within the other, so that a number of the chairs may be piled or nested in direct vertical juxtaposition. v. l
, Further objects are to provide a chair of simple, practical construction whichwill'be Arugged and durable in use, and wh1ch will be well suited to the requirements of economical manufacture.
lith the above noted and other objects view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinatioiis andA arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter setforth and pointed out in the'4 claims. The invention may be more fully understood from the following description in connection with 'the accompanying drawings, wherein Fig. 1I is a top 4plan v1ew.of a chair em-v bodying the invention, the chair seat being omitted. f Fig. 2 is a View in side elevation thereof.
Fig. 3 is a view in rear elevation thereof.
Fig. 4 is a side elevational view showing a number of chairs in superimposed nested relationship.
Fig, 5 is an enlarged sectional detail on the line 5 5 of Fig. 4.
V rig. e is a Sectional dean Catherine e-,e
lof Fig. 2. f A
t is-to be understood that wh-ile the drawings are illustrative of a preferred embodiment of the invention, the .particular shape of the chair seat, shape of the back, and the details of construction are subject to a wide variety of 'variations'.
The chair which is preferably formed of sheet metal, includes a seat frame. 10 whichmay be ot octagonal shape, including relatively long side portions, and relatively short corner portions. The legs 1l of the chair are preferablyl approximately semi-circular in cross section with the concave portions turned inwardly. At their upper ends, the legs are flanged as indicated at 12 and secured to the corners of the seat frame 10 by welding, riveting or in any other appropriate or convenient manner. The seat frame may be reinforced by suitable means such asthe lil-shaped braces 13, and the connection of the legs with the seat frame is strengthened by the use of diagonal bracing members 14 connecting the sides of the legs with the xterior of the seatframe.
lt is to be noted that the legs incline out wardlyfrom their upper ends to the feet 15,v
so that a number of chairs may be conveniently nested in the manner shown inFigs. 4C and 5. When. the chairs are superimposed one upon the other, the concave inner faces of the tapering legs'of one chair, nest with the convex outer face of the tapering legs of a subjacent chair, and the seat frames of the various chairs directly engage to limit the relative telescoping movement of the legs.
- lt is of' course essential to provide a chair' backV which will not interfere with the proper nesting of the chairs. Theshape or design of the back is subject to a Wide variety of variations. l have shown a back which includes a, series of uprights 16 secured at their lower ends to the exterior of the rearl face of the seatv 10, said uprights supporting and preferably being integral .with aback rest portion 17. t will be noted that the uprights at their lower ends are bevelled as indicated at i8, this bevel bein angle similar tothe angle at which the uprights slant rearwardly. AWhen the chairs are nested, the bevelled rear lower ends of the uprights of one chair will lie flatly against the front` face of the inclined uprights of a subja'cent chair, and the-backs will in no way interferewith the proper nesting of the chairs,
Obviously numerous changes and alterations mightbe made in the general form and arrangement of'partsdescribed, Iwithout departing from the invention. Hence I do not wish to limit myself to the details set forth, but shall consider myself at libertyA to make such changes and alterations as 'fairly fall'within the spirit and scope of the the backs will not'interfere with nesting of the chairs.
, 2. As anew artiole of manufacture, a'chair including a metal seat frame formed of a 5 strip of metal bent into the desired sliapezI Sheet metal4 legs connected at their upper endsl to the outer face of the seat frame, said legs being of arcuat-eoross section with channelled portions turned inwardly, whereby the legs of a number of chairs 'may be nested, a chair back 4secured to therear of the outer face of the ijeai' of the. seatframe, and being ysuflioiently narrow at lits lower end s o that it muy be straddled by the legs of superimposed nested chail's.
