riginal application led January 20,1926,` Serial No. 82,397. Divided and this application led March 28, i
1927. Serial No. 178,965. i
This invention relates to improvement in doors, and `has particular` reference to a service doorv capable of use in hotels, apartment houses, staterooms, railway sleeping cars and like places, the present invention i being a division of `my application filed January 20, 1926, `Serial Yo.V 82,397` and `allowed September 29, 1926.
An object of the invention is to improve the service to `be rendered to occupants oi a room of which the d oor forms a closure by constructing a cabinet which may beapplied to specially built doors, or to doors of ordi nary construction in such manner that the interior of the cabinet will be accessible from both sides of the door, thus making it unnecessaryfior an attendant to enter the room when collecting or delivering articles of apparel or the like. i
Another object is to provid-e an improved construction of cabinet in which the parts thereof may be collapsed to occupy a `minimum space and be practically confined between the two surfaces of the door in such manner that the cabinet will not detract fromthe appearance and architectural de-` sign ofthe door. i v
The above and other objects will appear more clearly from the following` detail de scri'ption, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, which illustrate a preferred embodiment of the inventive idea.
In the drawings- Figure 1 is an elevation oi' the outside of a door constructed in accordance with the invention; i y
Figure 2 is a similar view of the inside of the door showing the cabinet thereof in its collapsed position; c
Figure 3 is a vertical longitudinal section through the door with the cabinet in operative position;
Figure 4 is a similar view with the cabinet collapsed;
Figure 5 is a perspective viewof the door and cabinet;
Figure 6 is a transverse section on the line 6-6 of Figure 3; and
Figure 7 is a sectional view showing the means for retaining the side and bottom members of the cabinet in operative position.
Referring more particularly to the draw` ings, the numeral 11 indicates a door which may be of any desired construction and 55 material and w ich, for the purpose of the for the reception of other articles to be colj *lected or delivered to the occupant of a. room.
The cabinetv is preferably designed to be disposed upon the inner side oit the door and consists of side members 13 hinged to the `edges of the door forming the vertical sides of the opening 12 therein. Alsohinged to the door along the bottom edge of the opening 12 is the bottom member 14 of the cabinet, which further includes the top member 15 also hinged to the door along the top edge of said opening. An inner closure for the cabinet consists of two doors 16 hinged tothe forward edges of the side members 13, and provided with locking means 17 for retaining the doors `in closed position. \Vhen the cabinet is collapsed as shown in Figure 4, the side members 13 and the doors 16 are swung about their hinges and recessed within the ojening 12 between the 'inner and outer sur aces of the door 11. The top section 15 will lassume a vertical position upon the inner side of the door and in front oftheupper portions of the side members 13, while the bottom sect-ion 14 is retained. in a similar position by means of a latch 18 carried by one of the side members 13.
I When it is desired to adjust the members of the cabinet to their operative positions, the member 14 is first released so that the same may swing inwardly and downwardly and the side members 13 and doors 1 6 are then swung inwardly. In so doing the top member 15 will be moved to a horizontal and inwardly extending position by pressure of the upper ends of the side members 13 thereagainst and when the side members 13 are fully extended suitable spring pressed latches 19 carried by said side members will engage in recesses 2() formedin the top member 15 to lock the top and side members together. The bottom member 14 may now be swung upwardly to a horizontal position to engage the spring pressed latches 21 carried by the side members 13 with the pins 22 disposed in openings formed in the opposite side edges of the bottom member, to thus support the latter in operative position.
The doors 16 constituting the inner closure may now be swung to open and closed positions and by providlng suitable hangers attached to the'top member 15 it will be ap-.
parent that clothes may be readily` and neatly suspended within the cabinet. ne of to be recessed within the opening when said closures are .in closed position. These closures are provided with a lock 25 by means of which said closures may be opened by an attendant outside ot the door in order that ingress may be had to the cabinet to remore articles therefrom and replace the same. If the occupant of a room does not desire to have the closures .24 opened at any time he may accomplish this by meansot` a latch device Q6 secured to the interiorsm'face of the closures 24 and in order to prevent ingress into the room through the cabinet the lock 17 may be manipulated to locll; the inner doors or closures 16.
lVhat is claimed is:
1. A cabinet for doors capable of being mounted in an opening formed in a door and including side, bottom and top members hingedly connected to the door adjacent the opening therein and movable to extended po4- sitions to form a` compartment, means carried by said side members and engageable with the top and bottom members to retain said members in extended position, doors carried by said side members and forming an inner closure for the cabinet, and other closures hinged to the door and forming an outer closure for the cabinet.
2. A cabinet for doors capable of being mounted in an opening formed in a door and including side, bottom and top members bottom members to retain `said members in horizontally extended positions, doors carried by said side members and forming an inner closure 'foi-*the cabinet, and other closures hinged to thev door and forming an outer closure for the cabinet.
3. A cabinet for doors capable ofl being mounted in an opening formed in a door and including side, bottom and top members hingedly connected to the door adjacent the opening therein and movable to extended positions to form a compartment, said side members being also movable to positions in said opening between the outer surfaces o the door with said topand bottom members suspended vertically and outwardly of said side members, said top membe' being movable to a horizontally extended position by engagement therewith of the adjacent ends of said side members when the latter are swung to extended position, means carried by one of the side members to releasably maintain the bottom member in vertical position, means also carried by the side members and engageable with the top and bottom members to retain `said members in extended position, doors carried by said side members and forming an inner closure for the cabinet, and other closures hinged to the door and forming an outer closure for the cabinet.
In testimonywhereof I have affixed my signature.
