UNITED STATES PATENT GEEICE.
FELIX E. DAUDELIN, OF CHICA-GO, ILLINOIS.
WORK-TABLE FOR PAPER-HANGERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 572,698, dated December 8, 1896.
' Application filed April l5, 1896. Serial No. 587,659. (No model.)
folded up lengthwise in order that it may ber more conveniently carried from place to place, and which when folded up forms a closed box or case in which the workmans tools, working-clothes, rho., may be conveniently carried.
To this end the invention consists in the features of novelty that are particularly zo pointed out in the claims hereinafter, and in order that it may be fully understood I will describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part of this specification, and in which- Figure l is a perspective View of a table embodying the invention fully unfolded and in position for use. Fig. 2 is a vertical lon gitudinal section thereof with the parts at one end completely unfolded and the parts at the `gosother end completely folded up, the positionsfthese latter parts when unfolded being indicated by dotted lines. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the under side of a table embodying the invention with the parts at one end unfolded and the parts at the other end partly unfolded. Figui is a perspective view of a table embodying the invention, the parts being shown in the positions that they occupy when completely folded. Fig. 5 is an end view thereof. Figs. 6 and 7 are views showing some of the parts in detail.
ever they meet, so that when unfolded the parts thus far described will. forma shallow box. Toeach of the strips C is secured, by means of hinges E, a strip F, and to each of the strips F two of the legs G of the table are secured. The aggregate depth of the strips C F at eachend of the table equals the depth of the strips B, and the hinges E are disposed so that when the legs of the table are folded up they will be entirely within the shallow box aforesaid and the strips C and 4F will lie in the same vertical plane. The unfolding of the legs past positions at right angles with the table-top is prevented by jointed braces I; but for this feature of the device no novelty is claimed.
The legs of the table maybe and preferably are exactly one-half the length of the tabletop, so that when folded their ends meet, and to them is secured sheathing J, preferably made of a single board, the edges j of whichproject slightly, so that when the legs are folded up said edges will bear upon the lower edges of the strips B andthe sheathing itself will constitute a lid by which the shallow box aforesaid is closed. Ihis sheathing J may extend quite to the ends of the legs, so that the entire covering for the box will be formed by the two sections of sheathing, but this is not preferred where it is desired to provide a table the length of which may be reduced for convenience in carrying it. Where this is desired, I prefer to use extensions K, one for each end of the table, that are carried by arms L, Whose ends are pivoted to the strips B, upon the outer sides thereof. The length of the arms L and the locations of their piv- IOO For the purpose of protecting arms Lithe strips B are preferably provided with overhanging beads or shoulders b, which are the result of rabbetin g the strip, and in order to bring the tops of the extensions flush with the table-top the arms L are provided with offsets, as shown at Z. Where these extensions are lIo used, the sheathingJ is not continued to the extremities of the table-legs, but only to such points that they will meet the inner ends of the extensions when all of the parts are folded up. By reason of the above-described location of the axes of the hinges E, when the table-legs are unfolded the stripsF will lie in vertical planes outside of the vertical planes of the strips C, or in other words they will be slightly beyond the extremities of the tabletop, and when in these positions they will engage lugs k, that are secured to the under sides of the extensions and thereby support them. For the purpose of securing the parts in place when folded up a hasp M may be secured to the strip D so that it will project between extensions Kin position to receive a lock M of any suitable construction.
N is a straight-edge, to the ends of which are permanently secured offset-brackets n, perforated for the passage of bolts O, that are secured to the strips B, the length of the straight-edge being the same as the length of the tabletop, so that the brackets n may project downward past the ends of the table in positions to receive the bolts. TvVith this arrangement the straight-edge may be moved about the bolts as pivots, and when not in use the bolts may be withdrawn from engagement with the brackets and the straight-edge removed. For carrying it it may be placed within the box with the other tools, t-he strips C and D being provided with notches c and CZ for receiving it. Then the straight-edge is 'in the box, the brackets n will lie against the ends of the table, as shown in Figs. a and 5, the strips C and the ends of the table being additionally notched, if necessary, in order to receive them.
P represents slide-rods suitably secured to the strips C and D or to the under side of the tabletop, so as to be capable of sliding endwise, and p represents perforations formed through one of the strips B, through which these rods may be projected, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. l, when it is, desired to provide the table with an additional leaf for increasing its width, the complete withdrawal of the rods through the perforations being prevented by providing them with lateral extensions p'.
Having thus described my invention, the following is what I claim as new therein and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
l. In a combined table and tool-box, the combination with the tabletop and parts secured to the under side thereof and forming therewith a shallow box, of a hinged cover adapted to extend over the entire area of the box and close it, parts of the cover, when unfolded, being adapted to serve as legs for supporting the table, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination with a table-top and strips secured to the under side thereof and forming therewith a shallow box, of hinged legs, sheathing secured to the legs, arms hinged to thc box and a table-top extension secured to the arms, substantially as set forth. Y
3. In a table, the combination with the top thereof, of arms pivoted to the under side of the top, a table-top extension carried by the arms, the distance from the pivots of the arms to the inner end of the extension being equal to the distance from the pivots to the end of the table, and hinged legs having a portion which engages and supports the extension when the legs are unfolded, substantially as set forth.
4. In a combined table and tool-box, the combination of the tabletop, parts secured to the under side thereof and forming therewith a shallow box, hinged legs, sheathing secured to the upper portions of the legs, pivoted arms, and table-top extensions secured to the outer portions of the arms, the parts being so proportioned and arranged that the inner ends of the extensions will meet the ends of the top when the parts are unfolded and will meet the lower edges of the sheathing when the parts are folded and form therewith a cover for the box, substantially as set forth.
5. The combination of a table-top having strips B and C secured to the under side thereof and extending along its edges and ends respectively, strips F, hinges connecting them to the strips C, legs secured to the strips F, sheathing secured to the legs, arms L pivoted to the strips B and the table-top extensions K secured to the arms L, the length of the arms the length of the tabletop extensions, the distance between the inner end of the tabletop extensions and the pivots of the arms and the location of the pivots of the arms being such that when the arms are unfolded the table-top extensions will meet the ends of the table and when the arms are folded up the table-top extensions will meet under the table, substantially as set forth.
6. The combination with a table-top of a straight-edge, perforated offset-brackets secured to the ends of the straight-edge and extending downward past the ends of the table, and movable bolts secured to the edge of the table and adapted to be inserted in or withdrawn from perforations in the brackets whereby when in place they forni pivots about which the straight-edge may be moved, i
and whereby they may be withdrawn and the straight-edge removed, substantially as set forth.
7. The combination of a table-top, strips C secured to the under side thereof at its ends and having notches c, strips F hinged to the strips C and legs secured to the strips F, substantially as set forth.
