NIFEI'ERS, PHOTWLITHOGRAPHER, WASHINGTON", D C.
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
JOSEPH SUTTER, OF NEV YORK, N. Y.
|MPP.o\/ED FOLDING TABLE.
Specification forming part ofLetters Patent No. 40.513. dated November 3, 1863.
Figure 1 is a section of my table as open4 for use. Fig. 2 is a section of the same as closed or folded for standing aside. and Fig. 3 is an inverted plan of the table in its folded posi tion.
Similar marks of reference denote the same parts.
Tables have heretofore been made to turn up into a vertical or nearly vertical position upon one or two standards, in order that said vtables may be stood aside land occupy less room than horizontal for use.
The nature of my said invention Consists in two pair of folding legs, kept in position, when the table is horizontal, by spring-latches, but which legs are so h'tted and placed that one pair is turned or folded up against the under side ofthe table while the table itself is folded down against the ot het' pairoflcgs, which have feet in order that they may keep the table and legs in an upright position when folded.
ln the drawings, a is the table top, of any desired size, character, or material. b b are the moving pair of legs, united bythe rail cand hinged at d to the table a.. e e are the standing pair of legs, that are closer together than the legs b b, and are united by the railf and hinged at (j to the. bed c. lL It are feet formed at the ends of the legs e e, so that they lsill stand up and sustain the table in its folded Situation, as in Fig. 2.
In order to hold the legs in an unfolded position, Fig.1,I employ springvcatches, of any suitable character. I-n Figs. 1, 2, and 3 I have shown a block, t', with a spring latch, lc, taking the end of the curved catch t" from c, and a block, l, and spring-latch m, taking a curved catch, l', extending from f. n is a bar or rod connecting the ends ofthe spring latches k m, so that they may both be simultaneously disconnected. By this arrangement the legs b b can be disconnected from the spring-latch and folded up under the bed a, and then the mov ing edge ofthe table lowered, turning on the hinges g, until the table assumes the position, or nearly so, shown in Fig. 3.
I would remark that the table should be wider than the length of the legs, or else the upper ends of the legs a, a would show above the edge of the table as folded, Fig. 2, and the hinges g' must be farther from the edge of the table than the hinges d, in order that the length of legs e e may be sufficient to keep the edge ofthe table a from the floor.
ln Fig. 4 I have shown an are, o, with a stop atp and a iatch at q, to take the sides of the leg when untolded for use; and iu Fig. 5 I have shown a quarter circle, r, and springlatch s, to take the cross-rail (c orf) for the purpose of sustainingl the legs when the table is in use. Either of these devices might be substituted for the spring-latches shown.
W hat 1 claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. rlhe folding pairs of legs b b and e e, hinged to the table and folding as specied, in combination with the foot-pieces 1L It, for the purposes specified.
2. Retaining thelegs (fitted to fold as specitied) when the table is open by means of swing-latches applied and acting as set forth.
Dated February 25, 1863.
