'll lll a l7 IIIH I J n if kmmca PAIENIED m1 2 sumuora" Inventor A lfved D. Duncan TABLE SERVICE This application is a continuation-in-part of applicationSer. No. 36,879 filed May 13, I970.
This invention relates to table service of a novelty sort, especially for serving meals of the so-called fast food type. r
The present invention is primarily concerned with a novelty which may be used to promote the sale or distribution of comestibles at retail food stores, to promote fast food service (franchised food stands or counters) and which may be useful for table service at home or on picnics, and the primary object of the present invention is to originate a unique form of table service which conforms tothe foregoing. An ancillary object of the present invention is to originate a form of table service, especially suited to serving hot dogs, including a dog caricature detachable from a tray and convertible into a wheeled toy. The service of hot dogs is emphasized only to generate a ready appreciation of how the invention may be applied to one kind of service, which is to say that other forms of animal life may be caricatured within the principle of the invention, and in this connection another object of the invention is to devise lunch or picnic baskets in which the lid is caricatured as an animal, with wheels, for conversion to a toy. In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one form of table service constructed in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a perspective of the caricatured animal, detached from the tray and converted to a toy;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view showing the nestable feature of the detached animal caricatures;
FIG. 4 is a plan view of the tray with the caricature attached;
FIG. 5 is a sectional view'on the line 5-5 of FIG. 4;
. FIG. 6 is a partial plan view of a modified tray;
FIG. 7 is a partial elevation of the head of the caricature;
FIG. 8 is a sectional view on the line 8-8 of FIG. 7;;
-FIG. 9 is a partial sectional view showing the caricatured animal attached to the modified tray;
FIG. 10 is a' partial sectional view substantially on the line l0-10 of FIG. 1; t
FIGS. 11 and 12 are views of another embodiment of v the invention;
that the recess 15 may be used for other food items as well. The dog 12 is viewed in a reclining attitude, .but the attitude may be otherwise. However, the reclining attitude is purposely selected for reasons explained below. 1
The tray 11 includes a recessed section 11A for the food and an elevated section 11B for the dog 12, the two sections being separated by a shoulder 11H, FIG. 4.
The underside of the dog and the top side of the tray are molded to afford interfitting plug-and-socket attachments whereby the animal may be readily detached incidental to cleaning the service or as an incident to converting the dog to a toy, as will hereinafter be described. Thus, the tray 11, FIG. 4 is provided with two sets of paired openings or sockets 16, and the underside of the dog, FIGS. 2 and 10, is provided with pairs of spaced prongs or plugs 17 and 18 so spaced as to conform to the geometry of the opening 16. The prong set 17 (fore) is spacedfrom the prong set 18 (aft) by a dis tance equal to that separating the two sets of openings FIGS. 13-15 are views of still another embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 16 is a view of still another embodiment of the invention.
Whilethe present invention is aptly identified as table service, in one form of utility, it will be appreciated that the invention in practice may not always be so used, but may be used as a premium item to promote retail sales of hot dogs, for example, to promote fast food sales or as an item for the picnic basket.
A table service assembly conforming to the present invention is identified in FIG. 1 by reference character 10 and includes a food receptable in the form of a tray 11 and a dog caricature 12 presented by a separate piece on the tray, each of inexpensive molded plastic (e.g'. high impact styrene) of sufficient rigidity to support various food items, including relishes, condiments, and side orders which may be served. In any event, the caricatured dog 12 is so molded as to present an elongated recess 15 in its back conforming generally-to the contour of a hot dog, although it will be appreciated 16, FIG. 10, suchthat the former snap easily into the latter. Equivalent snap-on or press-fit attachments may be used.
As an additional feature of utility, and consistent with the preference for the dog being in a reclining attitude, the caricature may be readily and easily converted to a toy as will be apparent in FIG. 2. Thus, the degree of utility is enlarged by furnishing a pair of wheel and axle sets 20 and 21, FIG. 2, each being of one-piece molded form to include an axle 22 and a pair of wheels 23 molded to the ends thereof. The dimensioning is such that when the dog is removed from the tray, the axles 22 may be readily and easily snapped into the sockets or journals presented by the, prongs l7 and 18, which then become journal supports so that the axles easily rotatetherein when the animal is accelerated by a push along some suitable surface.
The caricatured animal is molded as a shell, FIG. 3, so that when detached .from the tray one caricature can be nested in and easily stacked with another. While the wheels and axles are shown as attached in'FlG. 3, they may be removed if desired A modified form of the tray is illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 9, and referring first to FIG. 6 the tray may be a modified tray, 11M, having fore and aft slots 25 and 26 of a dimension that will neatly receive the wheel and axle sets at the underside of the caricatured dog, this mode of attachment being shown in partial section in FIG. 9.
The animal, of whatever form, may be advantageously embellished by snap-on eyes and nose or other The food receptacle may be of a form other than a serving tray and in this connection attention is directed to FIG. 11 where the receptacle is in the form of a lunch box 35 which may be of molded, inexpensive plastic having a lid 36 attached thereto by an integrally molded hinge strip 37. The box is typical of what may be dispensed by a fast food service. For purposes of disclosure it is assumed that the lunch box 35 contains several hot dogs, as indicated by dashed line in FIG. 1 1, and in keeping with this idea the caricature is that of a dog 12 of the character already shown in FIG. 2, but in this instance the dog sets on the lid of the receptacle. Further, and consistent with the embodiment of the invention above described, FIG. 2, the caricatured animal 12 is provided with wheels 23', FIG. 12, fitted detachably in corresponding openings in the lid 36.
Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 13 in which the food receptacle 40 is of basket form having a lid 41 and a bail or handle 42. In this instance, the assumption is that chicken is the food item intended to be served or dispensed by a fast food service, and accordingly the caricature of a chicken 45 is integrally molded as part of the lid. Preferably the back of the chicken is provided with a recess 46 for accepting relishes and the like.
The lid 41, presenting the caricatured animal, is a separate piece as in all embodiments of the invention, but the lid itself, FIG. 15, is provided with wheel and axle sets 48 and 49 which may be precisely of the form shown for the caricature of the dog in FIG. 2 of the disclosure.
FIG. 16 shows the invention as embodied in an Easter basket 50. The handle 51 may be fixedly attached rather than pivotally attached. The caricatured bunny 52 is presented by the lid 53 of the basket. The lid 53 at its underside may be provided with wheel and axle sets as described above in connection with FIG. 15.
It will be seen from the foregoing that under the present invention a receptacle for food includes the caricature of an animal, presented by a separate detachable 'part of the receptacle. The detachable part may be the caricature itself, FIGS. 2 and 11, or it may be the lid of a basket or box, FIGS. 14 and 16. In any event, the detachable part presenting the caricature is equipped with wheels so that the animal may be used as a toy and hence many variations are possible.
