COMBINED DRESSING-TABLE AND CLOTHES-PRESS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 1, 1907.
Application filed April 9, 1966. Serial No. 310.691.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatl, HENRY KNAPP, a-citizen of the United States, and a resident of object of the invention is to produce a cabinet which will constitute a combined dressing-table and clothespress, which cabinet will be of simple construction and ornamental in appearance.
The invention consists in the construction and combination of parts to be more fully described hereinafter, and particularly set forth in the claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a perspective of the article, presenting certain drawers and doors therein in an open position. Fig. 2 is a horizontal cross-section taken through the lower portion of the.cabinet,. and Fig. 3 is a vertical Section taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2.
Referring more particularly to the parts, 1 represents a base which is adapted to rest upon the floor, as shown in Fig. 3, said base being providedwith acentrally-disposed stepbearing 2, preferably presenting a ball-race receiving balls 3, which support a cabinet 4 through the medium of a center plate or hub,
5,. which is attached to the bottom 6 thereof, as shown. Passing upwardly through the base 1 there is provided a central shaft 7, which is disposed centrally of the bearing 2. The cabinet 4 is formed at one side into a dressing-table or bureau 8, having a depressed cover 9, which cover is disposed substantially at half the height from the floor as the cover 10 of the clothes-press 11, which is formed out of substantially the other half of the cabinet. The clothes-press 11 is separated from the dressing-table by means .of a vertical wall formed of panels 12, said panels being separated slightly to form a space 13, in which the aforesaid central shaft 7 passes upwardly, as indicated most clearly in Fig. 2. The bottom 6 of the cabinet constitutes a common bottom for the clothes-press and cated.
It is of circular form, as indi- 1 It should be understood that the cabinet is preferably placed in the corner of the room and that the dressing-table 8 is normally. disposed outwardly from the corner, so as to be in a convenient position for use as a dressing-table or bureau. With this arrangement the outer or forward side of the cabinet is provided with drawers 14, which pull outwardly, as indicated in Fig. 1, the said drawers being guided between vertically-disposed side boards 15. These drawers 14 pull outwardly in a direction at right angles to the vertical panels 12, and the inner end of the drawer abuts thereagainst, as indicated in Fig. 2, so that these panels constitute stops to limit the inward movement of the drawers. The side boards 15 are then of course disposed substantially at right angles to the panels 12, so that side compartments or cupboards 16 are formed at the front of the cabinet, the said cupboards being closed each by a suitable door 17, which is preferably swung outwardly upon hinges 18, attached to the outer vertical edge of each of the panels 12. 1
The clothes-press 11 is divided by radiallydisposed walls or partitions 19 intothree compartments or cupboards 20 21 22, the saidcupboards being of triangular form, as shown. The cupboards 20 and 22 are closed by swinging doors 23, which are attached by hinges at the rear to the edges of the partitions 19, respectively, as indicated in Fig. 2. The rear cupboard 21 is closed by a similar door 24, which is attached by suitable hinges to the rear edge of one of the partitions 19.
It will be understood from inspection of Fig. 2 that the panels 12 constitute a main partition disposed diametrically of the body of the cabinet. These panels do not extend, however, above the cover 9 of the dressingtable. Above this point the cabinet is formed into a frame 25 for a mirror 26, and this mirror constitutes the forward side of the upper portion of the clothes-press.
In the upper portions of the cupboards 20 21 22 shelves are provided similar to the shelf 27. (Illustrated in Fig. 1.) As indicated most clearly in Figs. 1 and 3, the upper extremity of the central shaft 7 is received in a socket-plate 28, which is set into the cover 10 of the clothespress,' as indicated.
The general appearance of thecabinet is well presented in Fig. 1. From an inspec;- tion of this figure it will be seen that the covers 9 and 10 of the dressing-table and clothes-press are substantially of semicircular form, being'disposed on opposite sides of the diameter of the cabinet.
Attention is called to the fact that, as will be apparent from inspection of Fig. 2, when the doors and drawers of the cabinet are all closed there will be substantially no projections extending beyond the edge of the bottom 6 of the cabinet or beyond the edges of the covers 9 and 10 thereof. From this arrangement the cabinet may be readily revolved upon the base 1, so as to bring any one of the cupboards 20, 21, or 22 into convenient reach.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent In a cabinet of the class described, in combination, a base, a body rotatably mounted on said base, said body being of substantially circular form and having a substantially diametrically disposed dividing partition, a dressing-table formed on one side of said par- 4 tition, a clothes-press formed on the opposite side of said partition and having a cover, said. dressing-table having a cover depressed with respect to said first cover, a mirror disposed in a substantially vertical plane between said covers and constituting the forward side of the upper portion of said clothespress, a pair of radially-disposed partitions in said clothes-press dividing the same into three triangular cupboards having doors for closing the same, .a pair of parallel side boards dividing the interior of said dressing table into a centrally-disposed chest, and triangular side cupboards having doors adapted to close the same, and drawers received in said chest.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
HENRY KNAPP.
