xjThis invention relates to tables with particular reference to types that are extensible. One of the objects of this invention is to provide me'ans wherebythe table may, be Opened to cover twice as much area as when closed or in normal position.
A further aim is in the provision of means to support the table when in an open position, the support. pivotally moving from one position to another when the table is closed. Astill further characteristic is to provide a locking means for positively engaging the tablein either of its adjustable positions.
table, as closed, in full lines and as open, in broken lines. 3
1 These and other objects, which will become apparent as the description progresses, are accomplished by the novel construction, com bination ,and arrangement of parts, hereinafter-described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure, and in which i Figure 1 is a perspective View showing the table in a closed position.
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view showingthe Figure 3 is a fragmentary, longitudinal sectional View taken on line 3--3 of Figure 2. In the drawing, the numeral 5. designates four rectangular legs, enlarged at their up per ends and connected by pairsofparallel supports 6 and'7, respectively short and. long at the ends and sides.
Fixed intermediate the supports? and near one end thereoifl is a cross-piece '8 having,
passing therethrough at one end, a rod 9engaged by a washer 10 and a nut 11 on the unin the underside of a rectangular table top 15,
' the head 13 being held in place by a plate 16 i der side of the member 8.
Loosely mounted on the rod is a spacer 12, the top of which is flush with the element 7,,
there being a disc head 13 on the upper end of the rod 9 freely engaged in a recess formed fixed to the element 15 by screws.
Fast inthe cross-piece Sis a vertical sleeve normally disposed over the element 15, these elements constituting a hinge.
18 in which is slidable a detent 19 having a Thus, to open the table. the under frameis pivoted at aright angle, to its normal position, on the axis 9, thedetent being forced downwardly contact with its curved head against the edges of the openings 21 and ridingagainst the plate until the other opening is brought into register and the top member 28 is folded over to rest on the extending portion of the'frame aslshownin broken lines in Figure 2. i v
, It will be noted from the foregoing, that a simple, extensible; table has been disclosed, having detent means for retaining the table in its adjusted positions and which requires very little spaceiwhen in a closed position.
While the preferred form'of lily-invention has been described in detail, it will be understoodthat changes in construction and de-' tailsthereof, maybe made without departing. from the spirit of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent,- is z- In an extension table including anunderframe, a recessedrectangular table top and a second table member'hingedly secured tosaid top at two of the shorter ends thereof, a crosspiece on, the underside ofsaid top,a vertical sleeve insaid cross-.piece,a spring. controlled detent slidably arranged in said sleeve and having a convexly curved head, an arcuate.
member on said tabletop having openings therein adapted to be engaged by said detent head, said openings registering with the recesses formed in said top, and a rod connecting said cross-piece at one end thereof with said table top to act as pivot point for said underfralne for swinging said underframe at an angle to said top to provide a support for said table member in the extended position of the table.
In Witness whereof I have afiixed my signature.
HENRY STARKER.
