HENRY JOHNSON, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO WOLVERINE MANUFACTUR MICHIGAN.
I e COMPANY, A ooRPoRATIoN or EXTENSION-TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 732,354, dated June 30, 1903.
Application filed April 28, 1902. Serial No. 104,983. (No model.)
gan, have invented certain new and useful Im provements in Extension-Tables,of which the following is a specification, reference being".
had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to extension-tables of that type in which the leaves when not in use are stored in the stationary portion of the table.
The invention consists in the means em ployed for holding .the leaves in their raised and lowered positions; further, in the construction of extension side rails adjustably secured to the leaves, so as to permit of storing, and, further, in the peculiar combination of said extension side rails and the leaf-supporting devices whereby the adjustment of one will effect a corresponding adjustment in the other. V
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a sectional perspective view of a table in its extended position, showing one leaf raised and another one lowered. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan View of one of the leaves. Fig. 3 isacross-section through the table, showing the leaf in its stored position; and Fig. 4. is a similar cross-section with the leaf in its raised position.
A is the stationary portion of the table, and B represents the slides, which are a sufficient distance below the stationary top to form a receptacle for receiving the stored leaves.
0 represents the side rails of the stationary section depending from the top thereof.
D represents the leaves, which are adapted when resting on the slides to be stored in the receptacle beneath the stationary top.
E represents extension-side-rail sections adjustably secured to the leaves D.
It is. a twofold object of the presentinvention, first, to provide means for supporting the leaves upon the slides in the plane of the stationary top and, second, to provide an adjustment for the extension side rails E,wherebythey may be moved into alinement with the stationary side rails C When the table is extended and may be movedinward to permit of storing when the table is contracted. I have therefore devised a construction in which the supports for the leaves are laterally I adjustable, so that when the leaf is to be dropped they may be moved to the side of the slides. When the leaf is elevated, the support may be adjusted into alinement with the slides, so as to rest thereon. As shown in Figs. 3 and 4, F represents bars or cleats extending across each leaf and ad justably secured thereto by means of slides G, which engage with recesses H, formed in the bottom of the leaf. These recesses extend from the end of the leaf inward, and the slides G have secured at their outer ends the extension-side-rail section E. The slides may be secured in any suitable way to the leaf, as by the screws I, engaging with longitudinal slots J in said slides.
With the construction as described it will be readily understood that whenever the ex: tension side rail E is drawn outward into the position shown in Fig. 4 the cleats F may be the amount of the outward movement of the,
extension-section E is such as to bring it into exact alinement with the side rails of the stationary top.
When the table is to be contracted, the extension-side-rail sections are moved inward, thereby correspondingly moving the cleats F until the leaf may be dropped to rest directly upon the slides. The rails E will then be in a position to pass within the space beneath the stationary top, thereby permitting the extension-section of the table to be moved inward.
In order that the top of the extension side rails E may be in line with the top of the stationary rails O, the end of the leaf is gained or recessed, as shown at K, said recesses being adapted to receive the upper portion of said extension side rail in its inward position.
What I claim as my invention is- 1. In an extension-table, the combination with the stationary section having a top and a leaf-storage receptacle therebeneath, of an extension-slide below the level of said receptacle, a leaf adapted when resting directly upon said slide to pass within said receptacle and a laterally-adj ustable bearing depending i i I from said leaf adapted when resting upon said slide to raise said leaf into the plane of the table-top.
2. In an extension-table, the combination with the stationary section, having a top, a depending side rail, and a leaf-storage receptacle beneath said top, of an extensionleaf adapted to be stored within said receptacle, and a side-rail section slidingly secured to depend from said leaf and adapted to be moved laterally from a position for storing in a vertical plane parallel to said stationary side rail to a position in alinement therewith.
3. In an extension-table, the combination with the stationary section having a top and a depending side rail projecting laterally beyond said top, and a leaf-storage receptacle beneath said top of substantially the full width thereof, of an extension-leaf adapted to be stored within said receptacle and of approximately the full width of said top, said leaf being recessed upon its under side at one end and a side-rail section depending from said leaf and secured to slide in said recess, being adapted to be moved from a position in alinement with said stationary side rail into a parallel position for storing in said receptacle.
4. In an extension-table, the combination with the stationary section having a top, a depending side rail and a leaf-storage receptacle beneath said top, of an extension-slide, a leaf adapted when resting directly upon said slide to be stored within said receptacle, a side-rail section depending from said leaf and slidingly secured thereto to be moved into or out of alinement with the stationary side rail, a laterally-adjustable bearing for supporting said leaf upon said slide in the plane of the stationary top, and a connection between said bearing and said side-rail secported upon said slide to pass within said receptacle, and having its end recessed on the under side, aside-rail section depending from said leaf and adapted to slide laterally in said recess, a bar extending from said side rail inward and engaging a groove in the under side of said leaf and a bearing secured to said bar adapted to be moved thereby in or out of registration with said slide, and in the former position to support said leaf in the plane of the table-top.
6. In an extension-table, the combination with a stationary top and side rail projecting laterally beyond the edge of said top, with its parallel edge below the surface thereof, of a leaf having its edge undercut in the plane of the top of said side rail, and a complementary side-rail section slidingly secured in a recess formed by said undercut and adapted to be moved from a position in alinement with said side rail to a position within the plane of the inner face of said side rail.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HENRY JOHNSON.
