JAMES E. EDICK, WELLINGTON E. SMITH, AND SENECA I. RISLEY, OF BINGHAMTON, NEW YORK.
STAND FOR WASHTUBS.
LVO. 831,268.
Speeication of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 18,' 1906.
Application led October 5, 1904. Serial No. 227,317.
To all whom, t may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMES E. EDIcx, WELLINGTON E. SMITH, and SENECA P. Ris- LEY, citizens ofthe United States, residing at Binghamton, New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stands for Washtubs, of which the following is a specification. y
Our invention relates to stands for washtubs and the like, and has for its object to provide a bench or stand 'of this kind that may be folded in such a manner as to occupy a very small space and which will also be strong and durable and not liable to collapse under the weight of the tub.
With these objects in view our invention consists of the construction hereinafter described, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View showing the stand in its extended position. Fig. 2 is a similar 'view showing the stand folded. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the stand in its extended position. Fig. 4 is a section on line 4 fl of Fig. 2.
In carrying out our invention we employ four upright standards A of suflicient strength to support the weight of the tub when filled. Firmly secured to the standards A, near the extremities thereof, and extending at right angles thereto, are the arms B B, which extend inwardly toward a common center and are there joined by the plate C. This plate is of metal and is preferably square and is provided at each side with two bolts c c', the bolts c being in diagonally opposite corners of the plate C, as are the bolts c. These bolts pass through the inner ends of the arms B B and B B, joining the same, and thereby forming two practically continuous cross-bars. The arms B are rigidly secured at their ends to the diagonally opposite cornersof the plate C by means of the bolts c, forming a substantially continuous connection between the standards. The arms B have their free ends rounded and loosely secured to the remaining diagonally opposite corners of the plate C by means of the bolts c, which are provided with thumb or wing nuts, whereby the bolts may be loosened to allow the arms B to be swung out at an angle to the arms B and then tightened to lock the arms B in their extended position.
In order to make the stand capable of supporting tubs at different heights, the upper and lower sets of arms B B are secured to the standards A at different distances from the extremities thereof, and as the tub rests upon these arms it will be seen that by reversing the stand the tub will be supported at diiierent levels.
l/Ve do not wish to be limited to the exact structure herein described, as it will be apparent that the shape of the plate C and the nature of the fastening devices c c may be varied without departing from the spirit of our invention.
IIaving described our invention, what we claim is- 1. A device of the class described comprising the standards, arms secured to said standards, a plate having a corner on each of said arms, means for rigidly securing two of said arms to diagonally opposite corners of said plate and means for adjustably securing -two of said arms to the remaining corners of said plate, substantially as described.
2. A stand of the class described compris-l ing the standards, the arms, the plate having a corner resting on each of said arms, bolts extending through said plate and said arms and thumb-nuts on two of said bolts in diagonally opposite corners of said plate, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof we aflix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
