COLUMBIA,
ILLINOIS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.- 624,869, dated May 9, 189 9. 7
Application filed August 8, 1893.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JOHN B. RUDY,'residing at Farmington, in the county of St. Francois and State of Missouri, and JAMES H. MUL- CAI-IY, residing at Columbia, in the county of Monroe and State of Illinois, citizens of the United States, have invented a new and usef nl Chair Attachment for Tables, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to a foldin'gchair at tachment for tables, and particularly adapted for use in connection with dining-room tables; and the object in view is to provide a simple, comparatively inexpensive, and eificient device so constructed as to be applied with facility to a table and embodying a-chair seat and back which is capable of extension for use beyond the edge of a table and of being folded under the table when not in use, whereby the chairs are movable with the table, and, furthermore, to provide, in connection with a chair construction such as that indicated, means whereby the chair-legs are normally held spaced from the floor, whereby sweeping and cleaning may be accomplished without interference by reason of the chair.
Further objects and advantages of this invention will appear in the following description, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a chair attachment constructed in accordance with our invention applied in the operative position to a table. Fig. 2 is a side view showing the attachment folded, the same being shown partly in section.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures of the drawings.
The chair embodying our invention consists,essentially, of ahanger, includinga spindle 1, a bracket-arm 2, mounted for swinging movement upon the spindle of the hanger, and a chair having a standard 3 mounted for vertical reciprocation in a socket at the extremity of the bracket-ar1n and normally held Serial No. 688,057. (No model.)
of the chair, whereby a small superposed weight, such as that of a child, will be sufficient to depress the chair and bring its legs 5 into contact with the floor.
The spindle 1 is provided at its upper end with a securing-plate 6 for attachment to the under surface of the table-top, and a bracingbracket 7;is arranged in operative relation with the spindle, its arms, which are arranged in planes radiating from the spindle, being secured to the under surface of the table-top.
The bracing-bracket is provided with a cen= tral opening through which the spindle ex= tends, and the latter is threaded for engagement by upper and lower nuts 8 and 9, ar-
ranged, respectively, above and below the'eye or center of the bracing-bracket.
The bracket-arm 2 is bifurcated at its inner end to form upper and lower arms having verdiate point with an offset or elbow, and at the extremity of the short arm thus formed is arranged the terminal socket l0, in which the chair-standard is fitted. Said chair-standard is also threaded at its lower end for engagement by upper and lower nuts 11 and 12, and swiveled upon the chair-standard between said upper and lower nuts is a spider formed by the connected legs'5 of the chair. Obviously these legs may be adjusted axially upon the chair-standard to arrange the chair-seat 13 at different distances from the plane of the floor when the chair is depressed or in its operative position. In this way the chair may be adjusted at any height to suit the occupant thereof. I
In connection with'the chair-seat we employ a chair-back 14, and stop-hinges 16 are em ployed to connect the chair-back with the chair-seat, whereby the back is checked in its swinging movement when it reaches an operative position, while adapted to fold forwardly to a position parallel with the chairseat.
From the above description it will be seen that the chair embodying our invention is adapted to be swung freely under the tabletop when relieved of weight,whereby in moving the table the chairs are carried thereby and retain their proper positions with relation thereto. Furthermore, it will be seen that various adjustments of the parts of the chair and supports embodying our invention may be accomplished to suit the various conditions of use.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described our invention, what we claim is v 1. In a chair attachment for tables, the combination with a bracket-arm mounted for swinging movement and provided at its free end with a vertical socket, of a chair-standard fitted for reciprocation in said socket, a return-springforelevating the chair-standard when relieved of weight, and chair-legs fitted upon the standard below said socket and adj ustable to vary their position with relation to the standard, substantially as specified.
. 2. In a chairattachment for tables, the combination with a bracket-arm mounted for swinging movement and provided at its free end with a vertical socket, of a chair-standard fitted for reciprocation in said socket, a
return-springfor elevating the chair-standard when relieved of weight, connected chair-legs having a central eye fitted upon said standard, and upper and lower nuts threaded upon the standard respectively above and below the plane ofsaid eye for adjustment to vary the position of the chair-legs with relation to the standard, substantially as specified.
3. The herein-described chair attachment for tables, the same comprising a threaded spindle terminating at its upper end in a securing-plate for attachment to the under side of a table top, a bifurcated bracket arm mounted for swinging movement upon said spindle, means threaded upon the spindle for maintaining thebifurcated end of the bracketarm at the desired vertical adjustment upon the spindle, said bracket-arm terminating at the other end in a guide, a standard mounted for reciprocation in said guide, terminating at its upper end in a chair-seat and at its lower end provided with standards to bear upon a floor, a return-spring for normally maintaining the standard elevated, and a chair-back connected with the chair-seat by stop-hinges, and adapted to fold into a plane parallel with the chair-seat to swing under the table-top to which said spindle is attached, substantially as specified.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereunto afiixed our signatures in the presence of two Witnesses.
