CHARLES LEWIS VVAGANDT, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, ASSIGNOR TO KEEN (l6 HAGERTY, OF SAME PLACE.
CHILDS TRAY.
$PEOIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 402,788, dated May 7,1839.
Application filed December 12, 1888. Serial No. 298,385. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that LCHARLES LEWIS WA- GANDT, a citizen of theUnited States, residing in the city of Baltimore and State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Childrens Trays; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to those trays which are designed for the use of young children at the table, and has for its object the production of a tray of improved construction which will be better adapted to holding dishesand preventing the spilling and dropping of food,
which will protect the garments of the child.
which cannot be displaced from its proper position at the edge of the table so long as the child is situated before it, and which when not in usemay have its securing devices folded down upon its surface to enable it to be conveniently packed or laid aside.
According to my invention the front portion of the tray projects a considerable distance over the edge of the table, and is formed with a cut-out portion, which recess fits the body of the child, the portions of the tray at each side of the recess projecting forward and past the position ordinarily occupied by the infants body. The inner sides of the recess, therefore, constitute what may be termed supporting-walls, extendingforward at substantially right angles to the edge of the table, and are adapted to support the child in an upright position. It further results from this construction that portions of the tray, when inuse', are situated'at each side of the child and extend forward for such distance as to render it almost impossible for dishes orarticles of food to be dropped upon the My invention further consists in certain parts and combinations thereof, hereinafter understood, I have shown in the accompanying drawings means. for carrying the same into effect.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of achilds tray embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is afro'n't view of the same. Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view, illustrating the manner of folding the securing devices when the tray is not in use. Fig. 4. is a sectional view on line 4 4, Fig. 2.
' Referring to the drawings, A is the body of the tray, which is provided with a surrounding rim, a, of suitable height. The material of the tray may 'be tin suitablyjapanned or ornamented.
At B is indicated the space formed by cut ting out the front edge of the tray so as to leave two forwardly-projecting portions, A A, which willobe adaptedin 'nse. when. the, body of 'the childis situateddn the spaceB, to extend forward for a considerable distance and to be situated at each side of the user.
The tray is designed to be so placed upon the table that the front edge of the latter will be substantially in line with the inner side of space B, and to insure such placing of the tray, and also to prevent its being tipped up and its contents spilled by downward pressure upon the projections A, I'have provided suitable securing devices for regulating the position of the tray and holding the rear edge of the tray down upon the table. In this instance said devices consist of strong'spring fingers or clasps of Wire or other suitable ma- 8o terial. In the construction shown the tray is provided upon. the outer and under sides of the rim a with sleeves b, soldered to said rim. The spring-clasps, the securing-arms of which are indicated at G, are provided also with vertical portions 0 and arms or journals c, which are adapted to fit and turn, within the sleeves b. The clasps are also provided with a bend or setofi, (shown at c,) by which the portions 0 of the clasp are held at sufiicient distance from the journal orpivot c to clear the edge of the bottom of the tra and enable said clasps to be folded flat upon the bottom surface of the latter, as shown-in Fig. 3. In placing the tray for use the porf 5 tions 0 bear against the edge of the table and insurethe proper position of,;th e tray, while the arms 0 bear against the under sideof the table and hold down the rear portionfof the tray and sustain the front portions, A A.
The securing devices or elasps are preferably made removable, the pivot 0 being adapted, in the construction shown, to be withdrawn from the sleeves B. When. this has been done, it will be seen that, on account of the position of the sleeves b, there will be no projection of any kind upon the bottom of the tray and the trays will. be well adapted to be packed one upon the other for shipment without occupying much space and without danger of jamming or collapsing the sleeves.
I preferably form the rim of the tray Where it bounds the rear side of the space 13 in such manner, as shown at a,that it constitutes an upward extension from the main portion of the rim and forms a protector or apron by which the garments of the child will be protectcd and iood caught and deflected upon the tray, instead of being allowed to drop into the lap or upon the floor.
A band around the childs body, or supports adapted to sustain the projections AA upon the arms of the childs chair, might be employed to prevent the tipping of the tray, instead of using, as in the illustration, holding devices which engage the table.
I am aware that it has been heretofore noposed to construct Wailers with a recess for the arm of the person carrying them, with a 1 View to prevent the accidental dropping oi? the waiters, and I do not wish to be understood as cla ming anything contained in such a construe. ion.
Illiaving thus described my invention, what I claim is 1. As an improved article of manufacture, a child s table-tray recessed upon its front side, as described, and havingupon each side of such recess the forward projections, Afltho inner sides of which extend at substantially right angles to the table and are adapted to fit the sides of the child and holdits body from sidewise movement, substantially as set forth.
As an improved article of manufacture, a childs table-tray recessed upon its front side, as described, and having upon each side of such recess the forward projections, A, the inner sides of which are situated at and are adapted to fit the sides of the childs'body and hold it from lateral movement, the tray being provided around said recess with the protector or apron a, extending upward above the rinrof the tray, shown, and adapted to protect the clothing of the child and deflect into the tray spilled articles of food, substantially as set fort-h.
in testimonywhereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
