T a/ZZ whom it may concern.'

Be it known that I, MARCUS ADLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Manhattan borough, New York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Tailors Tables, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to certain novel features of construction by which the cutting of io garments or material can be readily and expeditiously carried on, as set forth in the following speciiication and claims and illustrated in the annexed drawings, in which Figure l is a plan View of the table. 'Fig 2 is an inverted plan view of Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a section along A A, Fig. l. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of a rotary supporting portion. Fig. 5 is a section along B B, Fig. 4. Fig. 6 shows a lock; Fig. 7 isasection along C C, Fig. 6. Fig. 8 is a section along D D, Fig. 6. Fig. 9 is a plan of the rotary ring to which the rollers are attached. Fig. l0 is a plan of the non-rotary base or ring on which the rollers run.

The table-top a. has supportinglegs b and c and is slotted. The slots d are shown running longitudinallyandthe slots d run transversely.

The rotary supporting portion comprises strips e., spaced, as seen at f, to correspond with the slots d d' in the table-top. The risers gsupportstripse. Therisersbeingindependent or spaced from one another severally support the strips so that a knife can be run from a slot d or d into and out of a slot The rotary or swivel base h for the risers enables the top to be rotated so that slots fcan be set in line with or at an angle to slots d or d", as required by the operator. The risers are supported on a rotary or swivel base h, which can rotate about the pivot or point t'. The supporting-rollers k for the base enable the latter to run easily or without friction.

To lock or hold the rot-ary base, a lock or pin q, Fig. 3, can engage a suitable eye or perforation in the base. A suitable number of perforations are provided to lock the rotary part with slots f straight or on the bias relatively to the iiXed slots d. The lock q is carried by a spring r, tending to snap or hold' the lock in action or engaging position. A slide or release s has a high or wedge part, which when the slide is moved one way acts against spring r to free or withdraw lock q. A lever t, with second slide s', can be made to return the iirst slide s to allow lock q to move back into action. The slides s s' when located at the lower part of the device to be within reach of the foot of the operator allow the latters hands to be kept free for cutting or for working at the top of the table. The rollers 7c are carried or journaled on a rotary ring k and run on a fixed or non-rotary base or ring k. The screws k3 enable the fixed base 7c" to be leveled or adjusted so that the rotary part e will be on a level with top a.. The transverse pieces g', Fig. 4, tend tosteady the risers g of a strip e. The base h has recesses h', into which can be placed a foot or toe part of a foot to rotate the strips e.

The table and all parts being made throughout of metal, such table will not wear nor warp and shrinkage is avoided, so that cloth or material can be supported flush or as required for cutting, so that even if a number of layers of material are placed on the table at once the lower layer of goods, with the others, is evenly or properly supported and cannot slip or work out of piace or between parts e and a. At the ends of slots d d are soft or yielding abutments d"-such as fillers of rubber, cork, or the like-to guard the edge of the knife orcutting-tool.

What l claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A slotted table-top havingsupportinglegs and provided with a rotary supporting portion comprising strips spaced to correspond with the slots in the table-top, risers for severally supporting the strips, and a rotary or swivel'base for the risers, all of said parts being made throughout of metal and said table-top having soft or yielding abut- Lnents or fillers at the ends of the slots substan tially as described.

2. A table-top having series of longitudinal and transverse slots and supporting-legs and providedwith a rotary supporting portion comprising strips spaced to correspond with the slots in the table-top, risers for severally ICO supporting the strips, and a rotary or swivel my hand in the presence 0i tWo subscribing base for the risers, all of said parts being witnesses.
