Description
JOI-IN MESSERSIVIITH, OF BUFFALO, NEW YGRK.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application led October 1, 1910.
998,195. Patented July 18, 1911.
Serial No. 584,912.
To aZZ whom 'it-may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN MnssnRsMiTH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Butlalo, in the county of Erie and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements'in Cabinets, of which the following is a specification.
rI`his invention relates to a cabinet which is more particularly designed for storing hats, shoes, gloves and similar articles of apparel but which may also be used for other purposes.
In cabinets containing doors and drawers as heretofore constructed rails were usually employed between the doors or other closures of the compartments which not only det-racted from the appearance of the cabinet but also rendered it dicult to produce a sufi'iciently tight joint between the parts to elfectually exclude dust from the compartments.
The object of this invention is to produce a cabinet of this character in which the rails are omitted so as to improve the appearance and also to so construct the joint between the partitions and doors of the compart` ments that the same are practically dust proof.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure l is a front elevation of a cabinet embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding` parts in both figures.
Although the general arrangement of my improved cabinet may be varied that shown in the drawings comprises a back wall A, two side walls B, B, a top C, a bottom D and a plurality of horizontal partitions E arranged one above the other between the top and bottom and each connected with said walls, thereby forming a plurality of superposed compartments. The uppermost and lowermost compartments preferably contain drawers F, F1 which are slidable horizontally into and out of these compartments and the front walls f, f1 of which serve as closures for the same. Each of the interme- :liate compartments is closed at its front and by a vertically swinging door G which s pivot-ally connected at its lower edge with :he front edge of the partition E forming he bottom of the compartment which is :losed by said door and also the top of the text lower compartment. At its front edge ach partition, except the uppermost, is
provided with a rabbet 7L adjacent to its underside thereby forming a rib il next to its upper side and each door is provided at its rear edge with a rabbet z' next to its inner side, thereby forming a rib l next to its outer side. The pivotal connection between each door and the bottom of its companion compartment preferably consists of hinges j the leaves of which are secured to the upper side of the inner edge of the partition adjacent to the rib Ztl at the front edge thereof and the inner side of the door adjacent to the rabbet at the rear edge thereof. Upon lowering the door into a horizontal position the rib and'rabbet of the door engage with the rabbet and rib of the adjacent partition and arrest the ldoor against further movement in this direction, as shown by the open door in F ig. 2. To prevent breaking the hinges the downward movement of the door is also limited by a sliding brace K pivotally connected with the door and slidably connected with the inner side of the respective compartment.
one door and the outer edge of the next lower door close together and avoid a wide gap and still permit of swinging the rabbet of the upper door clear of the lower door the latter is provided with a bevel Z at its front edge next to the inner side thereof. A .similar bevel Z1 is formed on t-he upper edges of the front wall of the lowermost drawers F1 to permit the rib 1 of the lowermost door to clear the same.
'In order to form a tight joint between the upper edge of each door and the partition above the same to which the next higher door is hinged, a horizontal cleat M is secured transversely to the underside of each of these partitions adjacent to the front edge thereof and provided at its front edge adjacent to its upper side with a rabbet m which is arranged opposite to the rabbet of the respective partition and a rib m1 which is arranged adjacent to the underside of the cleat and which is adapted to be engaged by the upper or outer edge of the adjacent door below its bevel Z in the closed position of this door, as shown for instance by the second door from the top of the cabinet in Fig. 2. This joint between a partition and the inner and outer edges of two adjacent doors permits of bringing the edges of two adjacent doors close together so as to avoid the use of the usual rail while at the same time To permit ofbringing the inner edge of perinitting these doors to be freely opened independently of each other and also produee a tight joint between the partition and said doors when the latter are closed so as to e'eetually exclude dust troni the eoin partments. 'lf he uppermost door preferably engages Vwith an ordinary eleator stop lli/l1 secured to the underside ot the upperinosi` partition adj aeent to the trent edge thereof, as shown in lig. il.
rl`he lower drawers and the doors may be provided with ordinary loelis I11,- bnt the upper drawer is preferably provided with a eoneealed eateli consisting oit a reriieally inoyable bolt 0 arranged in an openingl in the uppermost partition and held with its! upper end yieldingly in engagen'lent with an opening 01 in the bottoni et the upper drawer by a Spring y; secured to the upperinost partition and engaging with the lower end of the sliding bolt 0, as Shown in Fig. 2.
l elaiin as iny invention:
:i cabinet comprising a plurality of eonr partnients which are separated troni each other by partitions, the 'front edge ol each Copies of this patent may be obtained for on one of its sides and a rib on its other side,
doors 'for closing the openings of said coinpartinents, each door outer edge adjacent bevel While its rear rabbet adj aeent to adjacent to its outer side,
each door adj aeent tition adjacent to 'trent edge provide tion and a rib wh next eoinpartnient the saine.
Vvlitness rny han teinber, 1910.
liVitnesses being provided at its to its inner side with a edge is provided with a its inner Side. and a rib hinges connecting to its rabbet with a parits rib, and a eleat arranged at the itront edge oit eaeh partition on the rabbeted eide thereof and having its d with a rabbet wlneh is opposite the rabbet of. the adjacent partiieh is adapted to be engaged by tne inner side et the door oil' the in the Closed position el d this 29th day ot Sep- JQHN MESSERSMTH.
