SANITARY COLD-AIR FOOD-CABINET.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed March 27,

Patented May 31, 1910.

1909. Serial No. 488,250.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES ALBERT BUEL, J12, a citizen of the United States, residing at 3609 Nebraska avenue, in the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Sanitary Cold-Air Food- Cabinet, of which the following is a specification My invention is a sanitary cold air food cabinet, to be used as a receptacle to place food in when the weather is cool. It. can be raised or lowered from the inside of the room. It is economical, convenient, safe and sanitary. The cabinet slides up and down between two frames, which are fastened to the outside wall of the house, directly below the window sill, or on the sill, and when in use is raised to a convenient height, by means of two balance weights. V hen not in use it is lowered so that the upper part of cabinet is below window sill, and does not interfere with the use of window in any way, or prevent light from entering the room. At no time can contents be removed from the cabinet from the outside of the room or house. I attain these objects by the cabinet illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a back view of the cabinet from the outside of the building, with weights for raising cabinet to the desired height. Fig.2 shows side view of frame, which has V-shaped grooves for the 2/- shaped guides, and guide rods for the weights, pulleys over which pass cords fastening the said weight. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the cabinet as it appears in lowered position on the outside of building. Fig. 4-, R is a sectional view of bracket, which is fastened to window sill or below sill, receiving part B, which is dropped into R, making it very easy to hang.

Sin'iilar letters refer to the similar parts throughout the sweral views.

A is cabinet or receptacle for the food to be placed in, to which are fastened on each side by four bolts the ll-shaped. guides C, which slide in part B, a frame having V- shaped guiding grooves and guide rods for the weights. At top of B are two pulleys (7, over which pass cords O, which are fastened at bottom of part 0, passing over the pulleys (Z, and fastened to weights (1, which slide on two vertical guide rods, 7), which are fastened at top and bottom of part B.

R is bracket fastened to window sill or below sill, and receives part B as shown, both parts R and B having slots which take position into one another.

I; are holes covered with perforated metal for ventilating cabinet.

I am aware that prior to my invention cold air food cabinets have been made and used. I therefore do not claim my invention as such, but

I claim A cold air food cabinet for windows comprising a frame with V-shaped grooves sus pended beneath the window by a bracket, a cabinet with ll-shaped guides adapted to slide in said grooves, guide rods connected to the frame, .counterbalancing weights sliding on the guide rods. said weights being connected to the cabinet by means of a cord passii'ig over pullevs at top of frame. substantially as described.
