UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE l3. YOST, OF COLUMBUS, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO JOEL O. SHOUP AND CHARLES B. COWEN.
KNocKoowN TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 573,428, dated December 15, 18966.
Application filed July 1, 1895. Serial ITO-55415422 (N model.)
To 60% whom it may concern.- recesses 0. Over the top or upper end of each Be it known that I, GEORGE B. YosT, a citi-j of the legs thus recessed I provide a fixed zen of the United States, residing at Columcap or clip d, the vertical arms or sides d of bus, in the county of Franklin and State of which embrace, as shown, opposite sides of Ohio,have invented a certain new and useful the upper end portion of the leg. Through Improvement in Knockdown Tables, of which the upper side or top of the cap or clip (:1 I the following is a specification. provide socket-openings e, the latter being, My invention relates to the improvement as shown, immediately over the recesses o of tables, and has particular relation to that; and arranged at short distances from the sides 10 class of tables known as knockdowntables. of the clip-body. In each of the clip sides d The objects of my invention are to provide I provide a vertical slotted opening f, which a table of this class of superior construction has its lower termination a short distance and arrangement of parts which will be par-I above the lower end of the clip side, these ticularly adapted for use in the display of slotted openings f communicating, as shown, r 5 samples in hotel and other rooms; to provide with the larger openings e and leg-recesses c. improved means for connecting the various In this manner a narrow vertical neck or outparts or sections of the table and extending let is provided for each of the leg-recesses, the same; to provide in conjunction therewhich results in the formation of sockets in with an improved detachable table-top, and opposite sides of the leg, said sockets being 20 to produce other improvements the details substantially keyhole shape in cross-section. 7c of construction of which will be more fully 9 represents the longitudinal or side bars pointed out hereinafter. These objects I acof my improved table-frame, each of which is complish in the manner illustrated in the acprovided at each end with an extension concompanying drawings, in whichsisting of a clip h, which embraces the end 25 Figure 1 is a plan view showing two frameof the side bar to which it is secured, said sections of my improved table united and clip it having anend extension in the form showing a portion of the top thereof broken of a vertical key h, which is connected with away. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. the body of the clip by a narrow neck 7L2. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of a portion of These key extensions h of the side bars are 0 a table-top slightly enlarged from that shown adapted to be inserted vertically into the in Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of sockets of the leg tops and caps d, the neck one of the table side-bar ends. Fig. 5 is a plan portions 712 of the clips h being adapted to fit, view of the same. Fig. 6 is a plan View showas shown, in the recesses f of said caps. Aling one of the table-frame corners. Fig. 7 is though these side-bar key terminations are 3 5 a sectional view on line 00 0c of Fig. 6, and Fig. shown as substantially round in cross-section, 8 5 8 is a detail view in perspective of one of the and the socket-openings in the clips are leg-caps. shown in a similar form, it is evident that said Similar letters refer to similar parts throughkeys and socket-openings may be square or out the several views. of other desirable shapes.
0 In the construction of my improved table From the above construction it will be seen I employ supporting frames or standards, that a table or one section thereof will coneach of which consists, as shown in the draw sist of two of the supporting frames or standings, of two vertical legs a, which are conards and two of the side bars g detachably nected at their upper ends by a transverse connected with said standards in the manner 45 end bar I), the upper side of the latter being specified. 5 preferably flush with the tops of said legs. As indicated in the drawings, one table- In the upper end portion of each of the section formed as above described may readlegs a and in opposite sides thereof which are ily be united with another similar section by at right angles with the sides with which are producing an engagement of the key projec- 50 connected the end bars I; I provide vertical tions lb of the second section with the outer 10o sockets c of the first section. I11 this manner it is evident that any desired number of table-sections might be coupled together.
In covering the table or tables formed as above described I preferably employ a flexible table-top 2', said table-top consisting of parallel transverse bars 75, the latter being united adjacent to their ends by flexible hingestraps 7a. In producing this connection I employ an outer strap, which is arranged to pass successively over and under the straps 7t and which is secured to the respective upper and lower sides over which said strap passes. Adjacent to this outer strap I employ a second similar strap, which, as prescribed for said outer strap, passes over and under said strips 7a successively. I11 securing this inner strap to the bars 75 said strap is made to pass over such bars as the outer strap passes under.
It is evident that in order to produce a thorough and more complete jointed connection of the bars 7t I may employ two of said hingestraps through the center of the tabletop bars, if so desired.
As will readily be seen, a jointed table-top of the construction described may be made of any desired length, and when not in use may be folded or rolled up into a compact space.
From the construction and arrangement of parts which I have herein shown and described it will be observed that an improvement of a knockdown character may be produced at a reasonable cost of manufacture, and that the same will be exceedingly durable and strong, and, while adapted for ordinary table uses, will be found of great service in the construction of hotel sample-tables.
.As will readily be seen, the construction of myimproved table admits of the parts thereof being separated and packed into a comparatively small space in an exceedingly short space of time with slight labor, thus admitting of the removal of the tables from hotel or other rooms without injury to Walls or woodwork, which, as is well known, often attends the removal of long rigid tables.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In a table construction the combination with the supporting-standards consisting of the connected legs, of vertical recesses formed in opposite sides of the upper portions of said legs as described, and clip or cap plates embracing the top and opposite sides of each of said legs, socket-openings in the top plate of said clip or cap and narrower slotted openings communicating with said socket-openings and formed through the sides of the cap, of side bars having vertical key extensions at their ends, said key extensions being adapted to fit within and engage with said cap-openings and leg-recesses and a suitable cover for the frame thus formed, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
GEORGE E. YOST.
