WASTE BASKET.
Patented July 30,,1889.

JOHN H. OSBORNE, OF AUBURN, NEIV YORK.
WASTE-BASKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 408,129, dated July 30, 1889.
Application filed January 26 1889. Serial No. 297,631. (No model.)
4 To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN H. OSBORNE, of Auburn, in the county of Cayuga and State of New York, have invented certain Improvements in aste-Baskets, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide in connection with awriting desk or table a detachable waste basket or receptacle which may be instantly brought to the front of the desk in convenient position for use, or turned out of the way beyond the end of the desk; and to this end it consists, essentially, in a A receptacle or basket removably attached to the corner of the desk by hinges or pivots.
I commonly construct my basket in a square, segmental, or other form presenting flat vertical sides at substantially right angles to each other, and provide it at one corner or angle with hooks or hinges adapted for ready connection to or disconnection from eyes or hingeplates on the corner of the desk. The form of the receptacle and the construction of the hinges may be modified, provided the parts are adapted to operate in essentially the same manner as those herein shown.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a desk provided with my attachment. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of a portion of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of one of the hinges.
Referring to the drawings, A represents an ordinary oiiice-desk having, as usual, at the front a series of drawers a.
B represents the receptacle, made in the present instance of wooden slats in a rectangular form and connected at one of its vertical angles by hinges C O to the front vertical corner of the desk. Being thus attached, the receptacle is free to swing horizontally, so that it maybe turned forward and inward at the front of the desk, as shown in full lines in Fig. 2, within convenient reach of a person seated at the desk, or turned backward to the position shown in Fig. 1, in such manner as to leave the front of the desk entirely unobstructed and to afford free access to the drawers therein. The hinges in the present instance consist of the stationary leaves c,having upright pintles, and of the leaves (1, secured to the corner of the receptacle.
I do not claim, broadly, any and every receptacle mounted to swing horizontally, being aware that back-rests have been thus mounted above pianos, and that a basket has been mounted beneath the top of a sewing-machine, so that it could be swung forward when the attendant was not in position before the machine. I believe myself, however, to be the first to combine with a writing desk or table an outside receptacle so jointed to the corner below the top that the user sitting before the desk may turn the receptacle from an exposed position in front of the desk to a position beyond its end, and which maybe attached and detached at will.
IVhat I claim as my invention is 1. In combination with a writing-desk, an angular waste-basket hinged to the outside corner and arranged to swing from an exposed position in front. of the desk to a position beyond the end of the same.
2. The desk having hinges on its outer cornor, in combination with the basket or receptacle mounted on said hinges to swing wholly outside of the desk from a position beyond the end to a position at the front, said hinges adapted, as described and shown, to permit the disconnection of the receptacle.
In testimony whereof I hereunto set my hand, this 10th day of December, 1888, in the presence of two attesting witnesses.
JOHN H. OSBORNE.
