BENJAMIN J'. BUCKINGI-IAIVI, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO BUCKINCrI-IAM-RAE COMPANY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS.
Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Patented July 5, 1910.
Application filed February 20, 1909. Serial No. 479,016.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN J. BUCK- INGHAM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Dressmakers Fitting-Stands, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to dressmakers fitting tables. It is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure 1 is a plan view, Fig. 2, a side elevation with parts shown in cross ,section and others in dotted lines; Fig. 3, a section on the line 3--3 of Fig. l; Fig. 4, a horizontal section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 5, a detail of the operating lever.
Like parts are indicated by the same letter in all the figures.
A is a fixed central table mounted on the frame B which is supported on the legs C, G.
D is a movable table shaped substantially as shown and surrounding the fixed table A. It normally rests upon the frame B. It is provided with two transverse strengthening ribs D1 D1 and with two socket pieces D2, each secured to the table by two screws D3 and each provided with a socket D4 in which is secured by the pin D5 the downwardly depending rod DG. Each of these rods is received into a long bearing E provided on -its inner side with the long slot E1 and the two rods D0 are connected by the transverse bar E2 which extends through and is adapted to travel up and down in the slots El. On the rod E2 centrally disposed are the two collars E3. The long bearings E are secured to the brackets E4 which are attached to the transverse frame bars E5 E5. The lever arm F is provided with an opening F1 to receive the rod E2. This lever F is kept from lateral movement on the rod E2 by the collars E3 and is pivotally suspended by the link F2 secured to the frame at F3 and to the lever at F 4. It is also provided with two loops F5, F G which provide a sliding connection between the lever F and the extension lever F7 which has the handle F 8 at its outer end and the stop F9 at its inner end. The lever and the extension lever constitute the Ioperating lever. The lever F is provided near its outer end with an outwardly projecting sharp edged engaging piece G adapted to be received into the ratchet teeth G1 on the downwardly depending bar G2 which is associated with the bar G3, the two attached together and to the frame by means of the plate G4. Between these two bars G2 and G3 the operating lever is vertically movable. is a spring associated therewith and secured to the loops so as to bear againstthe inner surface of the bar G3. Thus the parts are held normally in the position indicated in Figs. 2 and 5.
J is a standard on the table A.
It will be understood that the details of construction as I have shown them can be greatly varied without departing from the spirit of my invention.
My drawings are in a sense to be taken as diagrammatic and intended simply to illustrate one form of the structure in which my invention is embodied.
I do not wish to be limited to the particular forms and structures shown, but I shall point out in my claims the essential features which I desire to cover.
The use and operation of my invention are as follows: In the dressmaking art it is desirable to have the person who is to be fitted, stand upon a platform and to have the floor, so to speak, about such standing person adjustable to determine the length of the skirt. It is, of course, desirable to have for `this purpose an easily manipulated table, the movable portion of which can be made to rise and fall readily and which will remain in position. In my invention the operating lever is made extensible so that it can be easily drawn out to give a proper leverage for the operator and so that it can be pushed in to be out of the way. It is connected to the elevating rods on the movable table intermediate their bearings for, of course, it will be understood that the bearing surfaces of these rods are at the ends of the open slot. Thus the tendency of these rods to cramp in their bearings is minimized. The extensible lever is pivotally suspended on a vmovable fulcrum so as to cause it to easily accommodate itself to the varying positions of the table which it is operating. The lock for the lever and table consists of the spring and opposed locking ratchet whereby some movable portion, as, for example, the operating lever is automatically forced into a locked relation with a fixed portion and is there automatically held so as to avoid the accidental disengagement of these parts which would result in the dropping of the movable tableA Y from its elevated position to the lframe.
f ThisV is Van accidentjwhich frequently-occurs -in dressmaking establishments. These locking orengaging portions I have shown on theoutside ofthe frame but in practice it isVY my intention .to putthem on the y:insideof the frame so that together .with the rest of the operating parts they'will be covered and hidden by the tables. This would leaveV only the projecting-handle which, of course,
must vbe within-reach oftheoperator.
