The invention relates to devices for carrying drill bits and the like, and hasfor its object the provision ot' a device including a tray to beA secured within they motor vey hlcle, such ktor instance as in the boot ot the coup type ot automobile, and provided with supporting means for holding the bits in position for transportation. n
A further object of the invention is the provision of a` bitraclr for the purpose stated including an adjustable supporting member that is yadapted to be raised and ext-ended outside of the'boot of the coupe to hold the bits or other devices to be transported in position, the Adevice being designed' to obviate the necessity ot cutting the walls lof the boot for accommodating the bit, and the adjustablerack is adapted to be closed within the tray vwhen not in luse so that the boot cover` may be closed to conceal the rack.`
j The invention will be described in detail hereinafter and will be found illustrated in the accompanying` drawings in which Figure 1 is a side view o1 coup type of automobile showing' the rack. in position c .therein and in extended position for transporting bits or other tools, Y
yFigure 2 is a plan view, the adjustable member being in a closed position to permit closing ofthe Icover out the boot, f
Figure 3 is a rear fview showing the adjustablemember in extended position,
Figure 4 is a plan view ot the racl: member removed from the coupe boot, the adjustable member being in extended position, and Figures 5 and 46 are transverse sectional views on lines 5 5 and 6 6 respectively Yof Figure 4.
In the drawings similar reference characters will be used to designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.` I
The improved bit rack is adapted to be used in connection with a coup type of automobile and is so designed, as heretofore stated, that when the device is to be used for conveying bits or other tools, an extensible rack is moved in position to support the tools above the rear Vwall ot the coup boot, and when in'a closed position the device will not interfere with the closing of the boot top. In the drawings 'a coup boot is indicated at A, and shows the improved bit rack inl position therein and including a tray 1 having side walls 2 and anend wall 3. A transverse rest member 4 connects the lening Iside walls 2 and is providedwith recesses 5 forming the rest forthe bits or other tools being transported. c
An adjustable member is alsoprovided and hasside arms 6 having longitudinal slotsi'l therein and8 are thumb screws engaging in the slots Tand threadedly engag-y ing'plates 9 secured to the side walls`2, washers 10v being carried by said thumb screws and engaging the side arms-6 to clamp the arms in adjusted positions. Ay cross piece 11 connects the rear ends ot the arms 6 and is provided with depressions 12` to form rests for the d rillbits or other tools, and another cross piece 13 is secured to the arms 6 at a distance `.from their ends and provided with depressions 14 valso forming rests `for the drill bits or, other tools.
The rear wall 3 is lower than the side walls 2, and angle members 15 are secured tp the side walls and the rearl wall to strengthen the joint,vand also extendsabove the upperv edges of the rear wall to provide a support for the cross piece 13 when the adjustable `rack .is arranged in extended position as shown inV Figures 1 and 4, 16 also indicating a plate extending Yabove the upper ledge oi the rear wall to add to the support oit-the vcross piece 13 when in said extendedy position. Rollei' 17 is provided having one of its ends itted in a circular opening 18 in oneside arm 6 and having its otherend engaging in a notch 19 in the other side arm 6, said roller,beingprovided to permit of the drill bit or f other tool onto the rack.
The cross piece 13 is provided with a leg member 20 having an open slot 21 in its lower end to receive a thumb screw 22 threaded into the rear wall, said thumbV screw having a washer 23 to engage the leg member 20 to clamp it in engagement with the rear wall.- Each of the sidearms 6 are also pro-vided with legs 24 having open slots 25 in their lower ends to engage over thumb screws-26 on which are washers 27 to engage said legs to clamp them in'engagement with the side walls, said legs and the connected thumb screws and washers operating to maintain the rack in ixed position relatively to the tray when the rackv is in extended position, it being understood also that the thumb screws thereon also assist in so holding the rack. When the` rack is closed within the tray the side arms 6 rest on the thumb screws 26,
8 with the washers 1() Y and the thumb screws 8 serve to clamp the adjustable rack to hold it in closed position.
As heretofore stated the device may be used in connection with the boot of an automobile coup and is so constructed as to obviate the necessity o 'f cutting the walls ot the boot to accommodate the device for earrying drill bits or other tools and furthermore that the tools Will be held so that theyY Will not mar the Walls of the boot, and when the device `is not in use for carrying drill bits or other tools the adjustable rack may be closed Within the tray and the boot so that the boot cover may be closed. It will be furthermore understood that the tray may be secured within the boot by any suitable means, such as screws or other driven fastenings, suggested at 28.
Vhat is claimed is 1 Y l. A drill bit rack, comprising a tray adapted to be secured in a vehicle, a rest member fixedly `secured in said tray, a rest member adjustably arranged in said tray and adapted to seat on a Wall oit' the tray in one of' its positions to provide an inclined support, said rest members having recesses to seat drill bits, and means to secure the last mentioned rest member in adjusted positions.
2. A drill bit rack, comprising a tray adapted to be secured in 'a vehicle, a rest member iixedly secured in the tray, another rest member adjustably arranged in the tray, means to secure the last mentioned rest member in adjusted positions, and a roller journaled on the last mentioned rest member.
3. A drill bit rack, comprising a tray adapted to be secured in a. vehicle, a rest member fixedly secured in said tray, an ad justable member including slotted arms slidably mounted on the side Walls of said tray, threaded members engaging said side Walls and in the slots of said arms, and cross pieces connecting said arms and providing rer/rasee other rest members, one ot the last mentioned rest members being adapted to seat on the rear wall of the tray in one position of the adjustable member.
Ll. Ak drill bit rack, comprisingaJl tray adapted to be secured in a vehicle, a rest member inedlj/v secured in said tray and having recesses to seat drill bits, an adjustable member including slotted arms slidablj7 mounted on the side Walls of said tray, threaded members engaging said side Walls and in the slots of said arms, cross pieces connecting said arms and having recesses therein to seat drill bits, one ot said cross pieces being adapted to seat on the rear Wall of the tray in one position of the rest member, a leg on the last mentioned cross piece and having an open slot in its lower end, and a threaded member engaging the rear wall of the tray and adapted to engage in said open slot to clamp the leg to the rear Wall of the tray.
5. A drill bit rack, comprising a tra)7 adapted to be :'ecnred in a vehicle, a rest member tixedlj' secured in said tray and having recesses to seat drill bits, anl adjustable member including slotted arms slidablj1 mounted on the side walls olf said tray, threaded members engaging said side walls and in the slots of said arms, cross pieces connecting said arms and having recesses therein to seat drill bits, one'otsaid cross pieces being adapted to seat on the rear wall of the tray in one position of the rest member, a leg on the last mentioned crosspiece, a. leg on each of said arms, said legs having open slots in their lower ends, and threaded members engaging the side and rear walls of the tray and adapted to engage in said open slots to clamp the legs to the walls of the tray.
