PIANO BENCH.

ta'ined within the seatportion of the bench for shipment and can be assembled or disassembled quickly without the useof any tools.
The invention will be fully understood from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the novel features thereof will be pointed out and clearly defined in the claims at the close of this Specification.
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of a piano bench embodying my invention, a portion of the cover or seat member being cut away to Show the interior construction' Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the bench shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 shows one of the legs detached. Fig. 4 is a section on line 4- 1, Fig. 5, and Fig. 5 is a section on line 55, Fig. 4, showing the mode of attaching the legs to the body portion of the bench.
seat member partly broken away and the legs placed within the body of the seat portion, this being the position which they occupy when the bench is stored or shipped.
I Referring to the drawings, at 11 is shown a cover or seat member hinged at 12 to the body or box portion and provided with an arm 13 to support the cover when in open position. The body portion 14 is box-like and is constructed with four sides 17, four corner members 15 and bottom 16. The corner members are preferably mortised to the Sides 17 so that with the cover 11 the whole forms a strong, rigid box.
Each corner member 15 is provided with a mortise or dowel hole 18 which is preferably cylindrical and each leg 19 is provided with a tenon 20, to fit the mortise or dowel hole; The tenon 20 is preferably integral with the leg 19 and is formed with an annular groove 21 and provided at its top with a cushion member or buffer 22. The tenon 20 and cushion member 22 is longer than the mortise 18, so that when the shoulder 28 of the leg is against the under sideol the corner member, the cushion 22 will be above the top surface ot'the box portion of the bench. There is also provided on the 'Sl ioulder 23 of the log a pin 24 which engages a slot 25 (see Figs. land 5). This pin andslot prevent axial displacement of the leg 19 with relation 'to. the corner post 15 and lineup the edges of the leg and the corner post.
The corner posts are each providedwith horizontal holes 26, 26 leading from the in terior of the box portion, these holes being tangent to the annular groove 21 in the tenon 20 when the tenon is in place in the corner member 15. These holes 26, 26 receive the t l s of a staple 27. The staple 27 can be inserted and withdrawn only from the inside otthe box portion of the seat and therefore is entirely concealed from view. It
locks the tenon of the leg against lengthwise movement so that it cannot be withdrawn or drop out while the staple is in place. In practice when it is desired to knock down the bench for storage or shipment, the
staples are easily pulled out, and the tenon is then withdrawn from its mortise.
As already stated, there is placed on the top of the tenon portion 20 of each leg a I cushion member 22 and the tenon is made Fig. 6 shows the bench with the cover or.
of such length that the cushion member projects above the top surface of the corner members 15 when the legs are in place. Therefore, when the seat portion or cover 11 is closed, it rests on the cushion members and the load is transmitted chiefly and directly through the tenon 20 and leg 19 to the floor.
a good fit between the tenon on the leg member and the mortise in thecorner member and that a bench constructed as described is as firm and rigid as a bench of the same material having integral legs.
WVhile I have shown and described the use,
of a cylindrical tenon and a corresponding mortise and a pin and slot as means for preventing the rotation of the leg relatively to the corner member, I do notintend to limit myself to this or other details except as speciiically stated in the claims appended hereto.
WV hat I claim is: 1. An improved piano bench comprising a seat portion and a body portion With mortises therein, legs having tenons to be received Within the mortises, said tenons being longer than the length oi the mortises, and there being means to preventthe rotation of each leg and to prevent movement longitudinally.
2. An improved piano bench comprising a.
jber passing through the body portion from the interior thereof and engaging the annular -1"cccss to prevent longitudinal movement of the'leg,.and means for preventing the rotation of the leg about the tenon as an axis.
4. An improved piano bench having a body portion with mortises therein, detachable legs for supporting the body portion, each leg having a tenon of greater length than the mortise and extending therethrough. and a cover for the body portion resting on the ends :of the tenons Which protrude above the level of the body portion.
a body portion having corner members at each corner, each corner member having a vertical cylindrical mortise therein, detachable legs having a cylindrical tenon and a shoulder formed in the upper end thereof, said tenon being longer than the length of the mortise and a cover for the box member adapted to rest on the protruding upper ends of the tenons When the legs are in place.
6. An improved piano bench comprising a body portion having corner members at each corner, each corner member having a vertical cylindrical mortise therein, detachable legs having a cylindrical tenon and a shoulder formed on the upper end thereof, said tenon being longcrxthan the length of the mortise and a cover for the box member adapted to rest on the protruding upper ends oi? the tenons when the legs are in place, and-means for locking the legs against axial and circumterential displacement.
7. An improved piano bench comprising a body portion having corner members at each corner, each corner member having a vertical cylindrical mortise therein detachable legs having a cylindrical tenon and a shoulder formed in the upper end thereof, said 'tenon being longer than the length of the mortise, a cover for the box member adapted to rest on the protruding upper ends of the tenons when the legs are in place, and cushion members interposed between the ends of the tenons and the seat'member.
In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature.
