rlhe invention relates to improvements'in the construction "of gas and electric Jranges and relates more particularly to a novel manner of securing' the usual steel base band to the legs. ln present day range designing, the tendency is more vand more toward the exclusion of bolts 'and rivets whose heads are visible at the exterior of the range, as they materially impair the appearance thereof, particularly if the portions at which they are exposed, be enameled. YWhile it has been possible to obscure a great number of the bolts and the like from view, it is still customary to make use of bolts whose heads are exposed at the outer side of the-base band, for the purpose of securing the legs to said band. It is the object of my invention however to provide a new and improved construction, whereby although the legs are securely held to the base band by threaded studs and nuts, said studs have no portions at the exterior of the band, distinguishable from the latter. Hence, whether this band be enameled, be merely highly polished, or be nickel-plated, a much better appearance is given to the range than Scan be obtained with the conventional construction.
With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject matter hereinafter described and claimed, the description being supplemented by the accompanying drawing.
Figure l is a perspective view of a portion of a gas range embodying the invention, distinctly illustrating the fact that the leg fastening means is not visible at the eX- terior of the base band.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary perspective view showing a portion of the base band and one of the legs disconnected from each other.
Fig. 3 is 'a horizontal sectional view through one of the legs and the connected portion of the base band.
In the drawings above briefly described, Vthe numeral 5 denotes the usual steel base band of a range, said band having rightangular corners 6,' only one of which is shown for illustrative purposes. At opposite sides of this corner, the band 5 is provided with two integral threaded studs 7 which project inwardly therefrom and are disposed at right angles to each other. Preferably, these studs are formed by portions of bolts whose heads 8 are acetylene-welded or otherwise welded in openings 9 formed through the band 5, producing integral connections between said studs andband. After the welding operation, the outer ends of the bolt heads 8 and the adjacent portions of the band 5 'are ground and polished so that no'portions of the studs can be distinguished from the band,r at the exterior of the latter'. Hence, if the band be enameled, nickel-plated or otherwise finished, there are no part-s of the legfastening studs 7 exposed to view and consequently a much better appearance is given to the range. 1
' l0 denotes a conventional form of pressed steel leg of right angular `cross section with its upper end snugly received in-the corner 6, said leg being provided with an outwardly pressed rib l1. upon which the band 5 rests.` The portion of the leg above this rib, is formed with two horizontally elongated slots l2 through which the studs 7 project, and nuts 13 are threaded on the inner ends of these studs, in contact with the inner side ofthe leg lO.
The shortest distance between the studs 7, denoted at A. in Fig. 3,' is substantially the same as the shortest distance between the slots 12. Thus, regardless of the right-angular relation of the studs 7 and the integral connection thereof with the band 5, the leg and band may be easily moved into disassembled or assembled relation, as occasion may demand, without interference by the studs striking the ends of the slot-s. ln thepresent showing the -shortest distance between the slots 12 is slightly less than the shortest dis-l tance A between the studs 7, but it is still possible to readily assemble and disassemble the parts if the shortest distance between said slots be a trifle greater than the shortest distance between said studs. i Hence, when I y'state that these distances are substantially the same, it is to be understood'that I comprehend such minor variations.
Excellent results have been obtained from the details disclosed and they are therefore preferably followed.v However, within the scope of the invention as claimed, variations may be made.
l claim:
l. ln a range construction, a base band having a corner, two threaded studs integral with said band and projecting inwardly therefrom at opposite sides of said corner,
saidstuds being disposed at right angles to each other, a. leg having an upperend fitting snugly in said corner and formed with horizontally elongated slots through the outer remote ends of. which said studs project, the shortest distance between said slots being substantially the saine as the shortest distance between said studs, permitting easy disassembly and assembly oi leg and band regardless of the integral connection between band and studs, and nuts threaded Lon said studs and bearing against the inner side of the leg.
2. In a range construction, a base band having a right angular corner, two threaded studs at opposite sides of said corner, said studs L being integral with said band anddisposed atV right angles to each other, a pressed metal leg of right angular cross section fitting snugly in said corner and having an out-V wardly pressed rib upon which said band rests, the portion of the legA above saidrib being formed with horizontally elongated slots through the remote outer ends of which Vsaid studs project7 the lshortest distance between said slots beingsubstantially the same as the shortest distance between said studs,
permitting easy disassembly and assembly ofleg and band regardless of theintegral Vconnection between band and studs, and nuts SHERMAN HARTER.
