Aug. 27, 1963 K. J. DOSMAR CABINET WITH SHIFTABLE SHELVES Filed Nov. 14, 1958 2 Sheets-Sheet 1 INVENTOR KURT JOHN DOSMAR ATTOR: EY
Aug. 27, 1963 K. J. DOSMAR CABINET WITH SHIF'TABLE SHELVES 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Nov. 14, 1958 5 F Rm INVENTOR KURT JOHN DOSMAR BY( 2 t g f ATTOR EY United States The present invention relates to a cabinet or the like having vertically adjustable shelves.
It is well known that cabinets or the like structures have a plurality of shelves in superposed position and the shelves which are arranged on a higher level, in particular in cabinets which are mounted on the walls, are not easily accessible because they are at a height which is appreciably higher than the normal height of a human being. In order to provide access to such upper shelves, it is usually required to use a step-ladder or any other means to step on in order to provide access to the upper shelves.
It is therefore, one object of the present invention to provide means for lowering one or more upper shelves to a height which lends itself for easy access for a human being of normal height.
It is another object of the present invention to provide manually or electrically operated means for moving the shelves from their upper normal position into a lower position at which access is had to the shelves, whereupon the shelves may again be returned to the upper position and properly adjusted in the cabinet or the like.
It is still a further object of the present invention to provide manual means for moving the upper shelves from their upper position into a lower position, whereby the means for shifting the shelves into the respective positions function simultaneously as a means for retaining the shelves in their upper position.
With these and other objects in view, which will become apparent in the following detailed description, the present invention will be clearly understood in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a front elevation of a cabinet in open position and showing the upper shelves in upper and lower position, respectively;
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the cabinet FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a front elevation of the cabinet shown in FIG. 1, however, in closed position;
FIG. 4 is a section along the lines 4-4 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a section along the lines 5-5 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 6 is a top plan view of a second embodiment of a cabinet structure incorporating the features of the present invention;
FIG. 7 is a horizontal section through the door with the shelves of the cabinet in'FIG. 6;
FIG. 8 is a horizontal cross-section through a door of the cabinet shown in FIG. 6, yet disclosing a different embodiment of the guide means for the shelves;
FIG. 9 is a fragmentary elevation of a cabinet with one door disclosing a second embodimentof such arrangement;
FIG. 10 is a section along the line 1tl10 of FIG, 9;
FIG. 11 is a fragmentary view of the stop means for the shelves in the respective upper and lower positions;
FIG. 12 is a fragmentaryelevation of a cabinet with a door disclosing another embodiment which incorporates electrically operating means for movement of the shelves; and
FIG. 13 is a vertical section of the door together with the shelves indicating simultaneously the driving means.
Referring now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 to 5, it is clearly shown that the cabinet 1 has a main body 2 of conventional rectangular configuration, though any other configuration may be provided, and doors 3 and 4 are connected to the main body by means shown in atent of the hinges 5 and 6. A plurality of lower shelves 7 is permanently or adjustably, as to their height, provided in the main body 2, while a plurality of upper shelves 8 are secured to one of the doors 3 or 4. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 the upper shelves 8 are-secured to the door 3 and in particular to the inner face of said door 3 in such a manner that the shelves 8 are permitted to move in downward direction.
As particularly clearly shown in FIG. 4, guide grooves and preferably two such guide grooves, are arrangedin the door which leave a vertical slot on the inner face of the door 3 and the shelves 8 have a rear wall 10 which carry guide strips 11 secured to guide plates 12 which move together with the shelf in vertical direction in a recess provided in the door 3. A lever 13 is hin-gedly-secured upon a horizontally disposed pivot 14 to the lowermost of the shelves 8, which lever 13 has at its lower end a handle 15, which handle defines an opening 16 and receives'a bolt 17 projecting at the lower inner face of the door 3. If the shelves are in their upper position, the bolt 17 is received in the opening of the handle 15 and retains, thereby, the shelves 8 in the upper position. If the shelves 3 are to be moved into the downward position, shown in point dotted lines in FIG. 1, the handle 15 is slightly moved forwardly upon the hinge or pivot 14 and the sleeves are then pulled downwardly along the inner face of the door 3 to assume finally their lowermost position, where there is easy access to any objects which are on these shelves. If the shelves are no more used, they are pushed upwardly by gripping again the lever 13 and after they assume the upper-most position, the handle is pushed towards the inner face of the door '3 to receive again the bolt 17 and thus locking the upper shelves 8 in the upper-most position. In this uppermost position, it is now possible to close the doors whereby the door 3 will simultaneously move the shelves with the objects thereon into the main body 2 to assume the position as shown in FIG. 3 of the drawings.
Referring now to FIGS. 6 to 8 of the drawings, an embodiment is disclosed in which the shelves are supported by both doors instead of merely on one door, otherwise this embodiment is substantially identical with that in FIG. 1. Thus, this embodiment comprises again a main body 2' having doors 3' and 4 secured thereto by the hinges 5 and 6, respectively. FIGS. 7 and 8 indicate two different embodiments of guide means for the rear plate of the shelves 8'.
In FIG. 7 the rear plate 10' has a rearwardly projecting guide strip 11' connecting the rear plate 10 with the rear guide plate 12. In this embodiment the guide plate 12 has forwardly projecting strips 12 which strips are received by vertical grooves 12 provided in the front panel of the door 3'. This arrangement provides a very smooth and safe guiding of the shelves 8' along the inner face of the door 3'.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 it is quite clear that again the rear wall 10 of the shelves 8 has a guide strip 11 which guide strip is connected with a plurality of guide plates 12 which are designed to movev in vertical direction in complementary recesses provided between the panels of the rear door 3'.
Referring now to FIGS. 9 to 11, another embodiment of the present invention is disclosed which substantially follows the embodiment disclosed in FIG. 1, with the exception, however, that the lever is hidden in the panels of the door and is visible only upon moving the shelves in downward direction. In particular FIG. 9 discloses again the main body 2 showing the door 4 which door 4 is connected to the main body 2 by means of hinges 6 The entire shelves may be secured here to one door 4 though it is of course possible to provide an arrangement similar to that shown in FIG. 6, in which each of J the doors carries shelves. Any one of the guide means disclosed in the previous embodiments may be used for guiding the shelves 8 in downward and upward direction, respectively. A lever or rod 13 is hingedly s..- cured by means of the pivot 14 to the lowermost of the shelves 8 yet the lever moves here between the front and rear panels of the door 4 The lower end of the lever 13 terminates again into a handle which is equipped with a spring biased double armed lever 17 one arm of said lever operating like a bolt in a recess ll? provided in the rear panel of the door 4 A spring 17 has a tendency to keep the lever 17 in locked position in which the shelves are retained in the uppermost position. Upon pulling forwardly the lever 17 against the force of the spring 1'7 the bolt-like arm will be withdrawn from the recess 17 of the rear panel of the door 4 and the lever 13 may now be pulled in downward direction, thereby moving the shelves 8 in the same direction. If the shelves are no more used in their downed position, the lever may be gripped again and the shelves may be pushed upwardly until the bolt-like arm assumes again the position in the opening 17.
Referring now to FIGS. 12 and 13, an arrangement similar to that shown in FIG. 9 is disclosed, with the eX- ception that an electric automatic drive is arranged. In order to bring about a downward movement of the shelves, the main body 2 has again a door 4 which is secured to the main body by means of the hinges 6 The shelves 8 are mounted for vertical movement by guide means similar to those disclosed in the other embodiments and the inner panel of the door 4 has for this purpose vertical grooves 9 A small electric motor 18 is disposed and secured to the lower portion of the inner panel of the door 4 which electric motor has on its shaft a pinion 19 which meshes with the gear rack 20 The rear wall 10 of the shelves 8 is secured to the gear rack so that upon turning the motor 13 the gear rack will be forced in downward direction, at the same time moving the shelves likewise in the same direction. Automatic switch arrangements 21 may be provided in conventional manner to stop the motor upon operating the switch by an abutment 22 provided and projecting downwardly from the lowermost of the shelves 8 Upon switching on the motor in the reverse direction, the gear rack 20 will be moved upwardly and takes simultaneously the shelves 8 until they reach the uppermost position, where again an abutment 23 will provide for stopping the movement of the motor 18 If the shelves have reached the uppermost position, the door can be closed and the position shown in FIG. 5 may be brought about.
