i Application :nei )nach s1,
This invention relates to an improved edge provide a neater binding strip at-tlie edge of the linolcumv and to protect the faceL of the binding strip support so that the finished surface will not-be VsoL readily worn away and also making a substantial bindsheet steel and preferably comprises four ing strip which vis-readily placed in position and also readily removed when desired. Another object of the invention is to provide an edging fonthe table which will be of substantial depth to present a good des1 gil further object of, the invention is to' provide a supporting lrail jforthe table top, and a facing strip for `the rail which is inset from the outer face' of the edging bead l whereby 'the latter will protect the former from becoming injured or otherwise marred. With the above and other objects in view i which will more readily appear'as the nature of the invention is betterl understood,
the same consists in the novel construction,
combination yand arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, illustrated Aand claimed. Y. In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a detail vertical sectional view through-a 'table top constructed in accordance with our'invention.x
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the parts forming the edgingof the table.
. Figure 3 is a bottom plan' 'view of Vthe table top and taken on 'the line'3-4-3 of Fig-l i ure 1.
Figure 4 is a detail el'evation'showing the meetlngends of the facing strip and the' +o means for fastening thelends of the facing strip to the supporting rail, and
F igure 5 is a perspective view partly in section, showing a modified form ofia table edging.
Like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several figures of the drawings.
- In embodying the invention in :'Lmetallic furniture top .or platen for a' desk or. table,
5'" the-top A is fitted with edgingB which preferablyconsists-of a supporting rail C, a facing strip D, and a bead E for protecting the edges ofthe linol'eum F or other EDGE CONSTRUCTION ron FURNITURE Tors.
1924. serial No. 703,185.
covering'which may be cemented or otherwise secured to .the upper surface of the top or platen to provide a composite furniture top.
The table top A is secured to the rail C and the facing stripD is in turn supported bythe rail and cooperates with the bead abutment E to lock the latter in position.
The rail C may be formed from pressed sections 5, V 6, 7 and 8 which are respectively disposed under the edge portions of the tabletop and offset .inwardly a short dis-w tance from the edges of said top. .Each of these sections is bent longitudinally to form in crosssection a rectangularv construction -comprising aninner wall 9, an outer wall welded to the table top A as indicated at 15.'
The outer portion of each connecting top portion 11 is depressed as indicated at 16 t 'form a resultant pocket 17 betweensaid depressed portion ,16 and the outer edge portion of. the table top A. i
The edges of the surfacing materialF of the table top are preferably beveled as' at 18 and the metallic bead E which is formed of a single length for the four sides of the table top-is disposed'along the beveled edge 18 and has its en'ds 19-19 disposed in abuttingrelation. In order to retain this beadv Vin position, we have provided the same with aninwardly extending flange 20 which projects into the pocket'17. The inner 'end ofv this flange 20 is formed with a downturned v-lip 21 which lies near the back of the pocket.
The facing strip'D is likewise formed of pressed sheet steel and Preferably is formed from a single length.` This. strip is bent longitudinally to form an upper bead keeper :flange 22 and a lower retaining or base flange 23. This facing strip .surrounds the sections' of the rail 'C and the ends 24-24 thereof are disposed in abutting relation as 'shown in Figure 4. The upper flange 22 of the facingstrip projects into the pocket 17 between the inwardly extending iange 20 of the bead E and the depressed portion 16` of the rail, the inner edge ofthe flange 22 cooperating with the depending flange v2l of the' be'adto lock the latter 1n position. The lower or base Han e 23 of 'the Afacing strip D extends under ti the rail and has an inwardly extending pro- ]ection 25 which constitutes a finger guard. The extension or guard 25 is raised above the plane of the base flan e 23 through the medium of a lockin shou der 26 which cooperates with the inner edge of. the base Ysurfacing material F, the bead may flange 12 of the rail to provi e an interlockin or retaining engagement between the rail and the facing strip, J
VIn orderto securely hold the abutting end portions of the facing strip D a ainst movement screws 27-27 may beA Iemp oyed, the same being -disposed on opposite sides of the abutting edges 24 of the base and engage the base fianges 23 and 12 of the str1 and rail respectively. Tlhe outer face of thefacing strip D is inset relative to the outer face of the bead' E whereby the latter will protect the formerfrom becoming disgured or marred.
If the table or other article is provided with a drawer G,' which is disposed directly under the edgi'n B, 'the guard25 will prevent the fingers rom being pinched between the base flange 23 and the drawer upon outward movement of the latter.
. From the foregoingi'it will be observed that the invention provides aftable or other' article with a detachable bead which is rel tained in position througligan interlocking connection with a facing strip which in turn has an interlocking engagement with a sup- 1 porting rail. Consequeny, should it be desired to re lace the bead or to remove the latter for t e purpose of substituting a nez l Dreadily detached after first detachingjhej facing strip.
In the. modified form shown in Figure 5, we have .illustrated a slightly differentconstruction of a rail and a facing strip. In this form the rail H includesan -innerwall 28 and a top 29, the outer edge portion of the latter being depressed as at 30 to form a. pocket 31 corresidin to lthe pocket 17 previously descrl e top 29 'in thisorin is not provided with either afront wall or a lowerbase tlange. The facing strip I is rovided -with an upper flange 32 for `inter ocking enga ement withA the bead-E` .j and 'with a lower ase flan e 33. The base lian 33 extends inwardly yond'the inner wa 28 ofthe rail and'is connected to a base flange 34 of the latter by screws 35e-35. Without further description it is' thought that the features and advantages ofthe invention will bcreadily i ap arentto those gskilled in end .it will 'of course be e base flange 12 of including t J'the bead'fiange and the depressed of the rail, the inne:L
.and
Lacasse understoodthat changes 'in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from' the spirit of the invention and scope of the ap nded claims.
