UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
MAX GOLDBERG, (DF-SANTA CLARA, CUBA.
ANT-TRAP. FOR FURNITURE.
sPncIrIcATIoN forming part of Letters Patent No, 694,738, dated March 4, 1902.l Application led December 12, 1901; Serial No. 85,609. (No-model.)
.To all whom t may con/cern:
Beit known that I, MAX GOLDBERG, a citizen of the Island of Cuba, residing at Santa Clara, in the Island of Cuba, lhave invented the dining-table, and for this purpose Il know. that water-containin g ant-traps forfurniture-` legs have been used. For fastening metal cup-traps for this purpose tO'table-legs my improvement resides in the construction shown in the drawing and will be set forth` in the claim apppended hereto.
The drawing shows part of atable-leg cut;
in two parts l and 2 above the caster.' Each cut end has its surface reduced to make the abutting ends of equal diameterand with straight walls 3 3, so that a metal tube t can be fitted on these straight end walls, with the ends abutting at the cut 11 about thewmiddle of the length of the tube. The upper part of the tube has an external cup part 6, whichV rises above the level of the upper end of the tube for containing water to form the trap.' The ends 5 of the tube abut against shoulders: ofthe cut leg ends, which gives a firm seating;
for the tube and makes it both a binder-band and a brace for the joined leg parts. In applying the tube it is driven on the end of ther upper leg part, and the lower leg endv part is driven into the lower end of the tube, and theV cut end parts are then secured together, with the metal tube self-bound around the joining of the cut legends and forms an external lat.
eral brace thereto.
For fastening the leg ends together at their joining within the trap-tube a tubular metal core 7 is driven into a bore which passesv through the lower leg` end Y part into the upper leg part, so that this core crosses theabutting ends,' forming a firm lateral brace thereto. The bore in the upper leg part is of less diameter than the bore in the lower leg end 4 part, and the core is formed with a shoulderv lOpto limit the extent to which it' is driven into 4the upper leg part. To secure the severed ends of the leg parts together vertically, a screw-bolt 8 is driven through the unthread-V ed bore ofthe metal core and engages the upper leg part, the head 9 of the bolt engaging the lower end of the metal core, and thereby iirmrly draws and holds the severed leg end parts together. In this bolting action the core-shoulder 10 serves as an abutment to hold the core against the inward force of the boltin drawing the leg ends together. An advantge of this core-and-bolt fastening is that the head of the boltis utilized to form a supporting-seat for the upper end of the caster-stem,-and thereby keeps the bolt from Vworking' loose in moving the table.
In drawing the leg ends together the bolt serves also to draw the shoulders of the leg ends upon the ends 5 of the trap-tube, so that the severed leg parts ,when joined upon the trap are .very thoroughly braced externally by the metal trap and internally by the metal lcore and bolt, making a very effective means for'applying a metal water-containing cup to table-legs, the object being to provide a fastoning device for a metal ant attachment to table-legs which are cut in two parts to re- -ceive'such attachment above the caster.
I claimi A'Itable-leg attachment for ant-traps con- I sisting of severed leg parts, a tubular metal cup-trap receiving and laterally bracing the cut leg endsin abutting relation, a tubular metalcore centrally connecting and laterally bracing the cut ends and a bolt passing through the core, connecting the core and the table ends, the tubular core, the bolt and the trap-tube crossing the joining of the cut table ends and bound together in the way shown and described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
' his MAX '-i-GOLDBERG.
