WASHBBHOH. APPLICATION FILED OCT. 22, 1908.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN E. KALGREN, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, ASSIGNOR TO THE .T. R. CLARK COMPANY,
OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, A CORPORATION OF MINNESOTA.
WASHBENCH.
Application filed October 22, 1908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN E. KALGREN, of Minneapolis, Hennepin county, Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Imroven1ents in fi ashbenches, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a ash bench of simple economical construction and one which when unfolded, will be stable and rigid.
My invention consists generally in a Wooden horse and benches pivoted thereon, the side rails of said. benches having interlocking ends and thereby bracing and stiffening the bench.
In the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, Figure 1, is a perspcctive view of a wash bench embodying my invention, Fig. 2, is a vertical sectional viev: sho sing the bench in its folded position, taken on the section line of Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is an. end elevation of the same.
In the drawing, 2 represents a Wooden horse having legs 3 which are rigidly secured together at their upper ends. (rossbars 4 connect the opposite legs of the horse and rails 5 and 6 are pivoted on the bars 4. The outer ends of the rails 5 and 6 are connected by cross bars 7 and 8, the former having legs 9 pivoted thereon, said legs being adapted to support the rails 5 and 6 in a horizontal position. A brace 10 connects a cross bar 11 be t .'-.'ecn the legs 9 with the lower cross bar 1 between the legs The rails 5 have generally been made to terminate near the point Where they are pivoted on the cross bars 4-. I have found however, that a Wash bench made in this way is not as rigid and stable as it should be when the bench is in use. The ends of these rails have sometimes been secured together by hinges of various kinds, but this manner of connecting the rails has proved to be objectionable as it prevents the ends from being separated and the bench l'olded compactly as indicated in Fig. 2, and also adds quite materially to the cost of manufacture. The main object I have had Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 4, 1909.
Serial No. 458,945.
in view in constructing this bench, is to obtain the desired stability without increasing the cost of manufacture and at the same time, permitting the ends of abutting rails to be separated When the bench is folded. With this end in view, I provide a recess 12 in the end of each rail on one side of the bench to receive a tongue 13 formed on the end of each rail on the other side of the bench. This tongue Will enter the recess When the rails are swung down to a horizontal position, and hold the rails in alinement With one another and brace and stiffen the bench against oscillation. The rails are free to separate and allovv the tub rests to be swung upwardly to a vertical position in folding the bench.
I do not wish to be confined to the precise form of inter-locking ends shown herein, as this manner of temporarily bringing the inner pivoted ends of the rails into supporting relation with one another may be modified in various Ways Without departing from my invention.
I claim as my invention 1. A Wash bench, comprising a horse, tub supports upon each side of said horse, said tub supports comprising rails pivotally supported at their inner ends on said horse and having legs at their outer ends and the rails on opposite sides of the horse being in alinement 'with one another when swung down to a horizontal position and having interlocking abutting ends, substantially as described.
2. A Wash bench, comprising a horse, tub supports pivotally connected With said horse on each side, said supports including side rails, the pivoted ends of the rails of one support having recesses to receive tongues on the rails of the other support, whereby one support will brace and stiiien the other one.
In Witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 16th day of October 1908.
JOHN E. KALGREN.
