This invention relates to what might be termed a kitchenette, that is, a device'for carrying culinary articles, tableware, provisions, etc., wh ch may be attached to and carried on the running board of an autoing different provisions, from which,the supplies can be easily and quickly dispensed by means of valves.
Another object of the invention is to so construct the bin portion of the article that the bins may bequickly and easily refilled,
A further object of the invention is to provide an adjustment for the bin portion of which, it can be tainer so as to insurea dust-tight joint.
, A still further object is to provide the dispensing apparatus in the bins with agitators the contained materials and prevent them from becoming packed, and also to provide visible indications as to what the bin contains and the nature of the contents.
Otherobj ects and advantages reside in the detail construction of the invention, which is designed for economy, simplicity and efficiency. These will'become more apparent following description.
invention, reference is had to the accompany- Ing drawing, which forms apart hereof. L ke numeralsrefer to like parts in all views of the drawing v and throughout the description. I

Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail sectionthrough the bottom of a bin. i
Fig. 6 is a detail view illustrating the socket for supportingthe adjusting rods of thebin section. I I
a The invention comprises a housing 10 closed at itsforward face by means of a rests upon hinged legs 12, forming a table. The housing 10 is adapted to be secured to the running board of anyautomobile, illustrated at 9, by means of bolts (see, 12, 2),
clamps, or other suitablefas'tening devices. Near the bottom ofthe housing 10 a shelf 13 is arranged, below which a drawer, 14
slides. In the upper a bin section 15 is carried on supporting rods 16. The bin section 15 contains a series of individual bins separated by partitions 37.
A glass cup17,sim1lar to the ordinary coffee percolator tops, is arranged inthe front wall the bins will the nature of of each bin. The material in fill this cup so as to indicate the contents of the bin. I a
The bin section 15 is formed of a sheet of metal which extends first downwardly, then inwardly at an angle, terminating at the front in a bent back head 18 from whence it extends horizontally, forming the floor of the bin, to a similar bead -18, thence upwardly forming the back of the bins. Between the beads 18 and 18, awooden bottom 19 is placed to act as a stiffener for the bottom of the bin section 15. Through the bottom of each bin, a tube 20 projects; The
flow'of the material from the bin through.
the tube 20 is controlled by means of a disc part of the housing 10,
yond the end partition I the drawer allow the ;wall engages'a stop 33 as shown the nuts 29 (Figure bottom of the bin so as to place the handles 22 in alignment along the bottom of the bin section 15. Each of the disc valves is provided with an opening 24 arranged to register, when in one position, with the tube 20 and, when in another position, such as shown in Fig. 4, to close the tube 20. The movement of the valve between the above positions is limitedby means of a stop 25 inset in a notch 26 in the disc valve 21. The stop 25 is secured upon the inner surface of the base or bottom plate of the bin section 15 Each disc valve carries upwardly projecting, angular agitators 27 which agitate and bin and work it the valve 21 is loosen the material in the toward the tube 20 when operated.
One of the supporting rods 16 is arranged at each extremity of the bin section 15 be therein. These supporting rods are preferably constructed similar to a carriage bolt, that is, with a semicircular head 28 on' one extremity and threads on the oppositeextremity. Each of the rods 16 is attached to the bin section 15 by means of lock nuts 29 threaded onto the rodand' arranged to clamp a cross member 30 between them.
rom' front to back of the bin section at each The'rods 16 pass through members 30 and through 28 rest in socket members 31 secured to the floor of thehousing 10 beyond each end of 14. The drawer is shortened to rods and socket members to be placed at its extremities, as shown in broken line in Fig. 1.
IVhen it is desired to gain access to the bin section 15, it is drawn forwardly by means of suitable handles 32 until its rear'wall engages a stop 33 as shown in Fig. 3. The
bin section may then be easily returned to its former position, that is, until its forward in Fig. 2. As the bin section ismoved the heads of the supporting rods rotate within the socket members 81.
It is desirable to have the bin section adjustably supported so that its forward face may be made to fit snugly to the top of the housing 10 so as to prevent the access of dirt and other foreign materials. This is accomplished by adjusting the position of the nuts 29 on the rods 16 until the proper fit has been obtained.
It of course follows that 3) can also be adjusted to lower the bin section on the rods 16 until it is clear of the stop 33 whereby the bin section and the rods 16 can be bodily removed as a unit from the housing 10.
Fig. 1, for the reception of flour.
One of the bins is preferably made larger than the rest,.such as the left hand one in In the The cross members extend ing, a bin disposed within said housing,
lower ends of said said rods and bin to'be swung outwardly from tube 20 of this bin a sifter 34 is detachably secured by means of a bayonet slot 35. The flow of flour to the sifter 34 is controlled by one of the disc valves 21.
In the present disclosure the various features of the invention have been applied to a portable campers kitchenette. Many of the features, however, would be equally valuable for use in an ordinary kitchen cabinet.
l/Vhile a specific form of the improvement has been described and illustrated herein, it is desired to be understood that the same may be varied, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from'the spirit of V the invention.
Having thus described the'invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1s 1; In combinationin a kitchenette, a housing, a bin disposed within said housing, supporting rods for said bin comprising the sole means for supporting thebin in the housing, there being one rod at each end ofsaid bin, means connected to said housing for pivotally detachably supporting the lower ends of said rods and arranged to allow said rodsand bin to be swung outwardly from said housing to afford access to the interior of said bin, means for limiting said movement of said bin, and means connecting the upper ends of said rods to said bin, said means being adjustable to maintain the binin cooperation with said limiting means and also being adjustable to move said bin out of'cooperation with said limiting means whereby said bin and rods may be readily removed as a unit from said housing. I
