GLIDE FOR FURNITURE LEGS Filed Oct. 21, 1933 gmntoc Patented Jan. 15, 1935 PATENT ()FFICE 1,988,377 GLIDE FOR roamruan LEGS Samuel Fruchter, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Application October 21, 1933, Serial No. 694,657 1 Claim. (01. 45-437) This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in glides for furniture legs.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a glide for furniture legs constructed of a single piece of material, preferably of a sheet character and drawn or stamped into shape to provide a furniture leg receiving recess or depression and a bottom opening annular channel or groove with a fibrous pad adhesively' or otherwise secured to the underside of the glide with the marginal edges of the fibrous pad confined within the annular channel or groove.
A further and important object of the invention is to provide furniture leg glide of the foregoing character wherein the fibrous pad is inthe nature of a pile fabric with the pile face of the fabriodirected away from the underside of the glide for floor contact, the pile fabric permitting unhampered sliding movement of the furniture and glide over a polished floor without mar'ring the latter and as a matter of fact adding luster to the polished floors by such sliding movement, the glide being further serviceable in eliminating wear spots on floor coverings such as carpets and the like.
With the above and other objects in view that will become apparent as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel form, combination and arrangements of parts hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying drawing and claimed. 1
In the drawing: I
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a furniture leg glide constructed in accordance with the present invention showing the top central depression therein for the reception of the leg of a piece of furniture;
Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the glide showing the exposed pile faceof a pile fabric secured to the underside of the glide;
glide showing the pile fabric extending below the body of the glide;
Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view taken on line 44 of Figure 1, showing the central depression in the glide and the annular groove for confining the marginal edges of a pile fabric;
Figure 5 is a bottom plan view of the glide with the pile fabric removed; and 1 Figure 6 is a top plan View of the pile fabric shaped to fit the glide.
The glide may be constructed of any material desired, either by molding, stamping or drawing and being designated in general by the reference depressed to form a recess 11 surrounded by an upstanding annular flange 12 flaring outwardly to aid in the centering of a furniture leg therein. The upper edge of the flange 12 is directed outwardly as at 13 in a plane parallel with the bottom wall of the recess 11 and the outer edge of the portion-13 is bent downwardly to provide an annular flange 14, the flanges 12 and 14 defining an annular groove 15 at the underside of the glide 10 surrounding the flat bottom wall 16 of the recess 11. The lower edges of; the flange 14 terminate in proximity of the plane of the flat bottom wall 16.
A fibrous pad 17 shown in detail in Figure 6 comprises a cord or thread backing 18 and a pile face 19, the fibrous. pad 17 having the backing 18 thereof engaged with the bottom wall 16 of the-glide recess 11 and the marginal edges of the pad'moved into the annular groove 15, this pile fabric pad being adhesively or otherwise retained in assembled relation with the glide as shown in Figures 2 toe. The marginal edges of the pile fabric are wedged into position in the annular groove 15 to aid in retention of the pad without scratching or marring the floor, the pile face of the fabric having a tendency to add luster to a highly polishedfloor. Also, the exposed pile face of the fabric when engaged with floor covering such as carpets or the .likeprevents the formation of wear spots in such carpet. Figure 3 is a side edge elevational view of the While there is herein shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it is nevertheless to be understood that minor changes central recess in its upper side to receive the. leg
of a piece of furniture and an inverted annular U-shaped marginal edge having inner and outer concentric substantially vertical side walls and a top wall defining an annular groove open at its lower side and a pile fabric having the backing thereof adhesively secured to the lower side of the glide and extending over the inner and upper surfaces of the annular groove with the marginal edge of the fabric wedgingly confined in the annular groove, the pile face of the fabric being directed away from the glide and extending below the underside of the glide a distance to space the latter from the floor when the pile of the fabric is compressed by the weight of furniture thereon, and the pile of the fabric at the marginal edge being compressed in the "annular groove for additional support of furniture resting on the glide.
