STOVE LEG Filed April 20, 1931 INVENTOR ATTORNEY 3 HENRY Patented May 17, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE C. MAUL, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR TO DETROIT, MICHIGAN STOVE COMPANY, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF MICHIGAN STOVE LEG Application filed April 20, 1931. Serial No. 531,446.
This invention relates to stove leg construc tion, and more particularly to constructions employing sheet metal legs.
Heretfore, sheet metal stove legs have 5 shown a cross section in the form of an angle with two sides exposed, and the leg was secured to the stove by a number of bolts.
' An object of this invention is a construc- M tion wherein the leg is in the form of a hollow, completely closed, tube having a cap piece provided with an upwardly projecting stud, by means of which, and the single nut threaded thereon, the leg may be secured to the stove or one of its frame parts, the latter and the leg having cooperating non-circular or specifically squared formations by means of which the leg is held non-rotatable with respect to the stove.
Other ob3ects will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon reference to the fol- 3b that'there is provideda frame piece 10, in
the form of an angle iron, which cooperates with a similar piece, not shown, to form a corner under which the leg is disposed. It
- will be understood that sheet metal enamelled plates, forming the casing of the stove, are to be secured to the framepieces, and since this construction is not new the same will not be shown.
In the corner formed by the intersecting angle iron framepieces, and under the horizontal flanges of these angle irons, is a cast iron corner plate 12, this part having Vertical flanges 14 adapted to abut the inner surfaces of the vertical flanges of the frame pieces. The plate flanges 14 are provided with'a plurality of apertures 18 aligned with apertures in the flanges 14, there being bolts 20 passed thru the apertures and thru aligned apertures in the vertical flanges of the frame pieces, the bolts having securing nuts 24 inside of the frame. The corner plate is provided with a downwardly projecting boss 26 in the form of a hollow square, and centrally of this boss is an aperture 28, for purposes to be described.
Disposed under the corner plate is a tubular sheet metal leg 32 having its upper edges 33 folded over to form a seat 3 L upon which the sheet metal cap piece 36 is disposed, the latter being held in place by spot-welding. The cap piece is provided with a central boss which is centrally apertured to permit the insertion therein of a stud or bolt 38 whose head 39 is within the tubular leg and under the cap piece. One side of the leg is cut away to provide a large aperture 40 thru which the bolt 38 may be inserted into the leg, and thru which are passed means for holding the head 39 of the bolt stationary, while a nut 41 is being threaded thereon.
The leg and bolt, as a unit are brought to the corner plate and fitted thereunder, the upper squared part of the leg receiving the squared boss 26, and the leg bolt being passed thru the plate aperture 28, whereupon the nut 42 may be threaded onto the bolt to hold the leg in place.
The edges of the lower end of the leg may be turned over, as at 46, to provide a fiat bottom for the leg. Further, the leg may bemade from a flat elongated blank, folded on four elongated lines to form corner edges 48 for the leg, the edges of the blank being line welded to form a closed seam 50.
It will be seen that the leg and the bolt, as a unit may be brought to a stove provided with corner plates, and secured thereto by manipulation of one nut only, viz., nut 42.
Further, the leg may be disposed on any corner, of the stove with its front facing to the stove front, the line 50 and the hole 40being on the rear of the leg at all times. Further, the enamelled leg 32 isso disposed that its outside or enamelled surface is at no time in contact with any of the other parts, and thus the enamel is not subjected to influences causing chipping, cracking, etc. Further, the squared boss 26, cooperating with the squared upper end of the leg prevents rotation of the leg with respect to the stove.
Further, the leg, as shown is in the form of a hollow tube having no open sides, as contrasted with legs now in use, which are angles in cross section, having exposed sides.
Now having described the invention and the preferred embodiment thereof, it is to be understood that the said invention is to be limited, not to the specific details hereinset forth, but only by the scope of theclaims which follow:
