MNHTED STATES SAMUEL JAFF E, OF MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE.
DINING- CHAIR.
Application filed April 15, 1927. Serial No, 184,035.
The present invention is concerned with the provision of a dining chair of the character commonly employed in lunch rooms, in which one arm of the chair serves as a table.
The conventional types of chairs now commonly employed are quite uncomfortable for the diner, since in order to eat from the chair arm, itis necessaryfor the diner to twist'his body into an extremely awkward position. so that he may handle a knife and fork and convey food to his mouth in the usual manner.
In accordance with the presentinvention I have eliminated this common inconvenience by the provision of a dining chair wherein the right hand corner of the seat is cut away so that the right leg of a diner may be slipped under the food supporting chair arm, this arm having no support adjacent its forward end which would prevent a diner from assuming the above described posture. This recess or cut-out corner provides a fifth corner which is preferably supported by a fifth front leg of the chair. 7
Other and more general objects of the invention are to provide a chair of simple, practical construction which will be rugged, durable, etlicient and comfortable in use, neat and attractive in appearance, and well suited to the requirements of economical manufacture.
view, the invention consists in certain novel features of constructionsand combinations and arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth and pointed out in the claim. The invention may be more fully understood from the following description in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein j V Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a chair embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a sectional plan view thereof on the line 22 of Fig. 1.
The chair includes a seat portion 10 of general rectangular formation supported at its two rear corners by legs ll and at its forward left hand corner by a leg 12. The upper ends of the legs 11 and 12 may be extended above the chair in the manner shown to support suitable back or arm-rest members such for instance as are shown at 13. Obviously these members may be in the nature of backs or arms of any conventional or convenient shape and design, and have been illustrated rather diagrammatically in the drawing. j
lVith the above noted and other objects in At the forward right hand corner the chair seat is deeply cut away, providing a recess 14 adapted to accommodate the right leg of a diner. The usual table-forming arm 15 is mounted above theseat of the chair at the right hand'side, being supported by the rear leg 11, and by a side leg. 16 which is engaged by the right hand side of the seat just rearwardly of the recess 14.
Thus the supports for the arm 15 leave a clear space beneath the forward end of the arm, so that the right leg of a diner may be conveniently accommodated in the recess 14 with the right knee under the chair arm, thereby avoiding the common inconvenience of having to awkwardly twist the body when using the chair.
A supplemental front leg 17 supports the forward portion of the. seat at the corner defined by the recess 14 and the forward seat edge. Any suitable arrangement of rungs l9 may be used to connect and strengthen the five legs legs of the chair.
Obviously the drawing simply illustrates an extremely simple embodiment of the invention, and from the standpoint of general appearance and design the chair may be finitely varied within the scope of the claim. In fact numerous changes and alterations might be made in the general form and arrangement of the parts described without departing from the invention. Hence I do not wish to limit myself to the details set forth, but shall consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended claim.
I claim:
A dining chair, comprising a seat of a general rectangular shape and having one front side cut away to form a recess for a leg of a diner, two rear legs extending above the seat and having a. back secured there between. a leg at the front unrecessed side of the seat and extending above the seat, an arm rest between the said leg and one of the rear legs, a leg secured to the under side of the front of the seat at the corner defined by the recess thereof, a leg at the rear of the recess of the seat and extending above the seat a less distance than the rear legs, and a table arm secured to the top of the said leg and to one rear leg between the seat and its upper end, and having its forward end extending over the recess of the seat.
