Groves, 131 Moran Road, Grosse Pointe Farms 36, Mich. Filed Nov. 5, 1962, Set. No. 235,195 1 Claim. (Cl. 248-4887) This invention relates generally to a base or pedestal and refers more particularly to a base or pedestal for chairs, tables, stands and the like.
It is an essential object of this invention to provide a base or pedestal for the support of chairs, tables, stands and the like, in which the hub and legs of the base or pedestal are formed as separate elements which may be quickly assembled and when assembled result in a very strong and rigid structure.
Another object of the invention is to provide a base or pedestal in which the hub and legs may be formed as separate castings. This provides a less expensive structure and one in which the separate parts may be conveniently buffed and finished before assembly. A onepiece structure can be very diiiicult to finish.
Another object is to provide a base or pedestal having separately formed hub and legs in which the number of legs used may be varied.
Another object is to provide a base or pedestal comprising a hub having angularly spaced grooves of dovetail section extending upwardly from the lower end thereof, and legs having inner end portions of dovetail section engaged in the grooves and insertable from the lower end of the hub.
Another object is to provide a base or pedestal having means, preferably in the form of a disc-like retainer secured to the bottom of the hub, for retaining the legs in the grooves of the hub.
Another object is to provide a base or pedestal in which the disc-like retainer has upwardly extending flange portions at the margin engaged in notches in the undersurfaces of the legs to provide a more rigid support.
Another object is to provide a base or pedestal which may be economically produced and one in which the parts may be stored and shipped in a knocked-down condition and readily set up.
Other objects an features of the invention will become apparent as the description proceeds, especially when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIGURE 1 is an elevational view showing a base or pedestal embodying my invention, and showing also a portion of a supported post mounted thereon.
FIGURE 2 is an enlarged fragmentary Vertical section 7 taken on the line 22 of FIGURE 3.
FIGURE 3 is a fragmentary plan view with parts in section taken on the line 33 of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary sectional view taken on a the line 4-4 of FIGURE 3.
FIGURE 5 is a fragmentary bottom plan View of the base or pedestal, taken on the line 55 of FIGURE 2.
FIGURE 6 is a view similar to FIGURE 5 but with the chair post 12. Since the base is adapted for use with United States Patent 0 a wide variety of chair structures, the chair or seat is not illustrated. Oflice chairs, for example, are commonly provided with a post such as conventionally indicated at 12. As will appear more fully hereinafter, the base or pedestal is also adapted for use as a support for other structures such as tables, stands and the like.
Referring to FIGURES 1-7, the base or pedestal 10 comprises a hub 14 the outer surface of which is cylindrical and of uniform diameter from end to end. The hub is provided with a central axial bore 16 open at both ends and also with the angularly spaced radially opening or facing grooves 18. The grooves 18 extend from the bottom or lower end 20 of the hub in an upward direction, that is axially with respect to the hub. The lower end 20 extends at right angles to the axis of the hub. The inner walls 22 of the grooves are preferably outwardly curved as seen in FIGURES 3 and 6, and extend parallel to the hub axis. These grooves open at the bottom end of the hub and terminate in spaced relation to the top end thereof to provide leg supporting seats 24. The dovetail crosssectional shape of the grooves is best illustrated in FIG- URES 3 and 6 in which it will be seen that the sides 26 of each groove converge toward one another in an outward direction. These sides 26 are generally flat surfaces and preferably they taper toward each other slightly, in an upward direction, so that they will have a close fit with the legs of the base or pedestal, as will be described more fully hereinafter.
The legs 28 are rigid elongated members having inner end portions 3t? of dovetail cross-section, that is the opposite flat sides 32 of each inner end portion converge toward one another in an outward direction, as seen in FIGURES 3 and 6, at the same angle that the sides 26 of each hub groove converge. Preferably also the sides 32 of the inner end portion of each leg are somewhat closer together at the top than at the bottom so that they have a slight upward taper corresponding to the upward aper of the sides 26 of the hub grooves. Accordingly, the inner end portions of the legs will have a close fit within the grooves in full surface-to-surface contact therewith.
The radiallly inner surfaces 34 of the inner end portions 30 of the legs have a concave curvature corresponding to the shape of the irmer surfaces 22 of the hub grooves to have a close surface-to-surface engagement therewith in assembly. The legs are provided at their outer ends with sockets 36 to receive the spindles 38 of casters 40.
The legs are assembled with the hub by inserting the inner end portions of the legs into the hub grooves from the bottom. The legs will slide smoothly into the assembled position shown in the drawings in which the upper end surfaces 42 of the inner end portions of the legs 'contact the seats 24 at the upper ends of the grooves,
and the surfaces 32 and 34 of the legs have a full surfaceto-surface engagement with the surfaces 18 and 22 of the grooves.
The legs are secured to the hub by a flat disc-like member 46 secured to the bottom end surface 20 of the hub. The member 46 is secured to the hub by threaded fasteners 48 which extend through holes in the member 46 and thread into the hub in the spaces between the grooves. Preferably also, threaded fasteners 50 extend through holes in the disc-like member 46 and thread into the dove-tail inner end portions of the legs to provide a more rigid assembly.
The hub is preferably a casting and has an annular recess 52 in its upper end. The recess 52 saves material. A tubular post bearing member 54 extends through the bore 16 in the hub and has a collar 55 at the upper end extending over and engaging the upper end of the hub inside the recess. The collar extends over and closes the recess.
It will be noted that each of the three surfaces 32 and 34 of the inner end portion of each leg is formed with elongated shallow grooves 57 of arcuate cross-section. These grooves are substantially parallel and run from one end of the inner end portion to the other, being open at both ends. Prior to assembly the grooves 57 are filled with 'a suitable adhesive, preferably an adhesive of the epoxy resin type. When assembled in the grooves of the hub, the epoxy resin in the grooves 57 of the legs contact and adhere to the surfaces of the hub grooves. The epoxy resin adhesive then sets and hardens and forms an extremely strong bond between the hub and the legs. This in effect bonds the legs and hub together into an integral unit, providing a much stronger assembly. The epoxy resin is designated 58 and it will be seen to contact both the surfaces of the grooves 57 and surfaces of the hub grooves. The three point contact for each leg provides a very strong integral assembly resisting the tendency toward relative movement of the parts in any direction.
In use, the post extending beneath the chair or other member to be supported, such as the post 12 in FIGURE 1, has a pin 55 which slips into the post bearing member 54 and is supported thereby.
Referring to FIGURE 6, in some adaptations fewer than the maximum number of legs may be employed. Under these circumstances the extra hub grooves may be filled by plugs 60, which are formed of the same dovetail section as the inner ends of the legs but which terminate in outer surfaces 62 which are curved to blend and extend flush with the outer cylindrical surface of the hub.
FIGURE 8 shows an adaptation in which the base or pedestal is shown supporting a table or stand 64. As there shown, one of the legs is omitted and a plug 60 is secured in the unused groove. It will be understood that in some adaptations the caster wheels may be omitted.
FIGURE 9 illustrates a modification in which the leg retaining member 46' is exactly like the member 46 de: scribed above, except that it has a marginal upturned annular flange 66. In this embodiment the legs 28' are provided in their undersurfaces with notches 68 which receives the flange 66. The notches are of the same outline and configuration as the flanges to closely receive the flanges, and it will be understood that the notches will extend through the opposite sides or surfaces of the legs.
The hubs and the legs in the commercial embodiment of the invention may be formed as die castings and of course are formed separately. Preferably, the legs have steel bar inserts 75 around which the leg casting is formed, to provide additional strength. The casting material may be any suitable material, such as zinc for example. The legs may be formed of the general cross-section shown with transverse and longitduinal struts or braces cast in. Actually, many other cross-sections, such as a T-section for example, could be employed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What I claim as my invention is:
A base or pedestal for chairs, tables, stands and the like, comprising a vertically disposed cylindrical die cast hub having a central vertical bore therethrough and having angularly spaced, radially outwardly opening leg receiving grooves of dovetail cross-section extending upwardly from the lower end thereof, the upper ends of said grooves constituting leg seats, die cast legs projecting radially from said hub and having inner end portions of dovetail cross-section slidably fitting said grooves in said hub and insertable therein from the lower ends thereof, reinforcing bars cast in said legs to strengthen the same, the upper edges of said legs being in thrust engagement with said leg seats, said grooves and inner end portions of said legs tapering in an upward direction and being in full surface-to-surface engagement with each other, said hub having fastener receiving holes in the lower end thereof disposed between said grooves, said legs having fastener receiving holes in the lower edge of the inner end portions thereof, a tubular post receiving member fitted in said bore of said hub, said post receiving member having a collar adjacent its upper end supported on the upper end of said hub, and extending downwardly beneath the lower end of said hub, a disc-like leg securing member sleeved upon said post receiving member across the lower end of said hub in overlapping relation to the lower ends of said grooves and having holes therein aligned with said fastener receiving holes in said hub and legs, fasteners extending through said aligned holes to secure said leg securing member to said hub, said leg securing member having a marginal upturned annular flange extending along the radially outer surface of said hub, said legs having notches in the lower edges thereof receiving said anuular flange, said inner end portions of legs having vertically extending recesses therein cooperating with said grooves to define channels, and adhesive material in said channels bonding said inner end portions permanently to said grooves.
