TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent'No. 274,614, dated March 27, 1883.
Application filed January 15, 1883. (No model.)
To all, whom. it may concern r Be it known that I, DANIEL KELLY, of Muskegon, in the county of Muskegon and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Tables; and I hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in the construction of tables; and the invention consists in the peculiar construction of a device for securing the legs to the table in such a manner as to produce what is ordinarily termed a knockdown table, all as more fully hereinafterset forth.
Figure l is a bottom perspective of one corner of a table provided with my improvement, and with the leg in dotted lines. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective of the malleable casting detached.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification,A represents the tabletop, provided with the usual rails, B, and legs 0.
D is a malleable-iron casting, which is secured to the under side of the table-top A by a suitable screw, and projects slightly under the ends of the rails B. This casting is provided with the flanges a and E, the former of which are at right angles to each other, and are designed to slide into a saw-kerf cut in the end of the leg; or, if preferred, these flanges may embrace the outer edges and end of the leg. The flange E has its two edges recessed in suitable saw-kerfs in the ends of the rails B, and spans the distance between the two rails in a straight line or upon a segment of a circle, as may he desired, and this flange is received such tables can be shipped in a knockdown state at a great saving of room, as the legs can be removed and placed between the rails, the table occupying merely the space equal to the width of the, rails and thickness of the table-top as against twen ty-eight inches or more occupied by each table where the legs are rigidly secured to place. 1
What I claim as-my invention is- B of a table having recesses, as set forth, the
scribed, and leg 0, the latter provided with kerfs in one end, constructed as set forth, to receive the flanges E and a of said plate, substantially as and for the purpose setforth,
2. A device for securing the legs of a table in place, consisting of the plate 1), provided with the flanges E and a, the leg 0, provided with kerfs, as set forth, and rails B, having recesses, as described, the flange E having projections, as set forth, to engage the recesses in the rails, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
