article of furniture.
More particularly the invention relates to the provision of a folding which is mirror within a drawer adapted to be fitted in a chest of drawers,'a dresser or the like.
Gne of the principal objects of the invention is the provision of a folding mirror within a drawer as a means of economizing on space.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a folding mirror within a drawer which will be automatic in substantially all' respects and be provided with a simple means for adjusting the angle of the mirror.
In this age, economy of space is constantly sought in places of residence by combining various articles of furniture and it in mind was with this thought that the present invention was devised.
One of the objects of the invention is the provision of a simple, inexpensive and yet eificient attachment for the interior of a drawer constituting an equivalent for the It is known that a mirror and drawer space for like and that this is usually a furniture in and of itself. Thus rooms and apartments it has been well known dressing table. dressing table comprises a cosmetics and the full. sized article of in small bedfound irnpossible to have the ordinary conveniences afforded by both a dressing table and chest of drawers or a bureau due to limitations of space, and it was my idea that the dressing enclosed while at necessary elements of the usual table, particularly, the mirror, could be within a drawer fitted to a chest or busight when not in use,
the same time saving the greatest portion of he drawer space for cosmetics and devi es employed in the care of the person.
It is to be understood, of course, that the invention would to a drawer set in a recess in function equally as well if applied the wall of a bedbathroom, where a chest or bureau is neither desirable or available.
Other objects of the invention will become apparent as the specification proceeds and the novelty of the invention will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawing, in
which a preferred form of the invention is illustrated,
Fig. 1
illustrates the invention applied to the drawer of a chest of drawers,
Fig. 2
is a sectional view of the drawer containing the mirror and showing the latter in open position,
Fig. 3 is a similar section showing the mirror in a nearly closed position,
Fig. 4
1933, Serial No. 633,842 (on. 45 97) ployed in adjusting the in open position, I
Fig. 5 illustrates the block used in conjunction with the spring just mentioned for the specified purpose, and
Fig. 8 is a detailed view of the connecting means for the mirror and slide blocks.
The numeral 6 designates a drawer of known construction set in a chest 2 and slidably mounted on the slides 3. 1
The mirror 4 has a frame 5 and is pivotally connected to the slide blocks 6 set in the-interiorly disposed grooves 71 of the drawer l by means of the pins 3.
Angle pieces iii are set in the lowermost edges of the mirror frame, at the point where the same is connected to the blocks 6, with the free ends H projecting forwardly. Springs l2, anchored in the front wall of the drawer are connected to the ends it of the angle pieces it and supply the tension which is necessary to automatically raise the mirror when the drawer is pulled out of the chest 2.
The pitch of the by means of t e blocks l3 disposed in the grooves l, in front of the slide blocks 6, and held at a fixed point therein by the springs M. The springs M are anchored in the side walls of the drawer i by the inwardly bent pins or projections IS. A series of holes H the blocks 43 to receive the inwardly bent pins or projections E5 of the springs M. The placement of the pins it in the holes ll determines the pitch of the mirror.
It will be noted that in addition to serving as a means of adjusting the pitch of the mirror, the blocks l3 and springs M act as buifers for the blocks 6 as the mirror is pulled into the upright position shown in Figure 2, the shock being taken up by the springs Ml.
Lamps [8 are bracketed onto the mirror frame 5, as shown in Figure 1, to illuminate the surface thereof, taking the place of those usually found attached to dressing tables adjacent to the mirror.
The operation of my device is as follows: As the drawer l is pulled out of the chest 2, the tenpitch of the mirror when mirror is rendered adjustable sion of the springs G2 on the bottom of the mirror frame 5, through the angle pieces H, causes the blocks 6 to slide forwardly in the grooves l. At the same time the rods 9 cause the mirror to be tilted backwardly toward the position shown in Figure 2. The blocks it, having been set at a predetermined point in the grooves I by means of the springs i l, restrict the forward movement of the blocks 8 and thus set the pitch of the mirror.
It is to be understood that my invention is susceptible to many modifications and changes and I therefore do not wish to be limited by the specific form shown and described, but only to the extent of the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. A mirror containing drawer comprising grooves in the side walls of the drawer, slide blocks in said grooves, a mirror pivotally mounted on said slide blocks and normally housed in a horizontal position, links connected to the mirror on an axis located on one side of the axis of said slide blocks, a tensioning member connected to the mirror on the opposite side of said axis of said slide blocks, said links restricting forward movement or" their connecting axis when the tensioning member draws the slide blocks forwardly. V
2. A mirror containing drawer comprising grooves in the side walls of the drawer, slide blocks in said grooves, a mirror pivotally mounted on said slide blocks and normally housed in a horizontal position, links connected to the mirror on an axis located on one side of the axis of said slide blocks, tensioning members connected to the mirror on the opposite side of said axis of said slide blocks, said links restricting forward movement of their connecting axis when the tensioning member draws the slide blocks forwardly, and means disposed in said grooves to determine the pitch of the mirror when the latter is in raised position.
3. A mirror containing drawer comprising grooves in the side walls of the drawer, slide blocks in said grooves, a mirror pivotally mounted on said slide blocks and normally housed in a horizontal position; links connected to the mirror on an axis located on one side of the axis of said slide blocks, tensioning members connected to the mirror on the opposite side of said axis of said slide blocks, said links restricting forward movement of their connecting axis when the tensioning member draws the slide blocks forwardly, and adjustable shock absorbing means disposed in said grooves to determine the pitch of the mirror when tion. I
4. A mirror containing drawer comprising grooves in the side walls'of the drawer, slide blocks in said grooves, a mirror pivotally mounted on said slide blocks and normally housed in a horizontal position, links connected to the mirror on an axis located on one side of the axis of said slide blocks, tensioning members connected to the mirror on the opposite side of said axis of said slideblocks, said links restricting forward movement of their connecting axis when the tensioning member draws the slide blocks forwardly, buiTers disposed in said grooves in front of said slide blocks and means for adjusting the position of said bufiers.
