Re. 16,410 R. c wooLMAN Mlr'wolu:k nssx original fund Feb. 13. 1923 when-the board is swung to osition where it hangs in the rear of the des These parts are so arranged that the board 3l is properly inclined to form a back rest for the pupil, as mentioned later herein.
Pivotally supported beneath the top is a small shelf 32 for holding an ink-well and water bottle or the like. This shelf is adapted to be swung into its position shown by dotted lines in Figure 1 or to its position shown by full lines, where the ink bottle or the like are accessible.
When the art work desk is being used for other purposes than for drawing or for any purpose where the board 31 is not to be used, that board, is swung over to position where it hangs adjacent to the back of the desk.
These desks are designed for use in the public schools and are then arranged in rows. If the instructor is talking to the pupils for any considerable length of time, the board 31 can be used as a back for the pupil in front. This is of some importance because the 'chair 2O has only a low back 21, in
order that the chair may be shoved under the desk, so that the desk and chair may occupy a minimum of fioor space, when not in use.
-The use of the low back has the disadvantage that when the pupils have to sit for some time listening to the instructor, the low back 21 is not sufficient. However, when the desks are arranged in rows, the pupil in front of the ldesk under consideration can push his chair back a short distance and use the board 31 of the desk behind him for a back. The board furnishes a smooth surface, and its use for a back does not interfere with the pupil behind.
When it is desired to use the board 31 in connection with the desk as an easel, the board is swung over from its position hanging down behind the desk to its position shown in full lines in Figure 2 or Figure 1, where the top 11 supports the forward portion of the board and the member 23 supports the back part of the board.
By adjusting the wing nut 28, the member 23 may be loosened, so that it may be raised or lowered for supporting the board 31 at any desired angle.
When the board 31 is being used as an easel, it will be noted that it is of less width than the top 11 from side to side, and is arranged so as to leave projecting portions of the to 11 at each side ofthe board 31, so that awinginstruments, colors, paints or other articles may be placed on the top 11 at either side of the drawing board, where they are convenient of access for use on the drawing board.
By placin a block under the forward edge o the rawing board and then raising it, it may be held in horizontal position, if
desired, for providing a supplementary table e upon which the pupil can work standing up.
.The means for supporting the back end of the drawing board is such that it may be adjusted and the drawing board may be used without interfering with the articles that may be in the trough 13 or on the top 11, except near the forward edge of the top.
The shelf 32 is arranged at the right-hand end of the art desk, so as to be accessible to the right hand of the pupil.
It will be understood that the bottle of india ink may be supported in or on the shelf 32 convenient for making drawings on the board 31.
The arrangement by which the strip 31al contacts with the button 23a, causes the board 31 to assume an inclined position, when swung to its rearward position, and the natural slope of the back of an ordinary chair is thus attained. It will be seen that this inclined back can be adjusted at various heights to accommodate the person using it.
It is my purpose to cover by my clalms, any modiied forms of art desks, which may come within the reasonable scope of such claims. f
I claim as my invention: y
1. An art work desk including a top, an adjustable member slidably connected to the desk, a drafting board, and means connecting the drafting board to the adjustable member for swinging movement whereby it may be swung to hang down in a substantially vertical position at the rear of the desk to clear the top or can be swung forwardly to overlie the top.
2. An art work desk comprising a top, an upright member slidably mounted at the back of said desk entirely clear of the top surface of the top, means for locking said upright member in different positions of its vertical sliding movement, a cross bar at the upper end of said upright member, a drawing board, and means for hingedly connecting the drawing board to said cross bar whereby said drawing board `may be swung downwardly behind the desk into a substantially vertical position or may be swung over to inclined position with its forward part supported by the forward part of the top.
3. An art work desk comprising a top, lan upright member slidabl mounted at the back of said desk entire y clear of the top surface of the top, means for locking said upright member in different positions of its vertical sliding movement, a cross bar at the upper end of said upright member, a drawing board, and means for hingedly connecting the drawing board to said cross bar whereby said drawing board may swing downwardly behind the desk into a substantially vertical position or may be swun over to inclined position with s forward partasupported b the forwardpart of the tl the rawing board being narrower from 'f 4 y to side than the top an being arranged sc a'ato leave rojecting portions of the top Q" 'ea'h sidoo' the drawing board.
"4; art work desk comprising a top, an member slidably mounted at the back of desk entirely clear of the tog mince 'of the top, means for locking sai ppright memberV in diierent positions of f fits vertical, sliding movement, a cross bar Y attire upper end of said uprlght member, ,a drawing board, double acting hinges for motallymounting one end of said drawing rd on said cross bar, whereby said drawboard may hang downwardly behind the Vdesk or may be swung over to inclined poits forward part supported by the-iforw'rd part of. the top the drawing D.. being narrower from sle weide than Y the and being Varranged so as to leave v of drawing board. v
5. An art work desk comprising a top, an upright member `slidably mounted at the back of said desk entirely clear of the top Surface of the top, means for locking said vupright member in diierent positions of its q.AverticaL sliding movement, a cross bar at the upper end of said upright member, a
wing board, double acting hinges for piv- "tllly mounting one edge of said drawing on said cross bar, whereby said drawboard may hang downwardly behind the desk or may be swung over to inclined position with its forward part supported by Vthe forward part of the top, the drawing board being narrower from side to side than the top and being arranged so as to leave Y -pro'ecting portions of the top on each side p of Ae drawing board, a swinging shelf supv. ported on sai desk at the side thereof 1n portions of the top on each4 side a position readily accessible to one working on the drawing board.
6. An art work desk comprising a top, an upright member slidably mounted at the backof said desk entirely clear of the top surface of the top, means for locking said upright member in di'erent positions of its vertical, sliding movement, a cross bar at the upper end of said upright member, a drawing board, double acting hinges for pivotally mounting one edge of said drawlng board on said cross bar, whereby said drawing board may hang downwardly behind the desk or may be swung over to inclined osition with its forward part supported y the forward part of theitop, the drawing board being narrower from side to side than the top and being arranged so as to leave projecting portions of the top on each side of the drawing board, said top having a trou h in its rear portion and a back member limiting the downward movement of said cross bar, so that said board will never interfere with or be interfered with by tools or the like in said trough.
7. An art work desk comprising a top and supporting members, an upright member mounted for vertical adjustment at the back of said desk, means for holding the upright member in various positions of its adjustment, a combined drawin board and back element pivoted to sai upright to permit said board to be swung to inclined position with one edge resting on the top or to position hanging behind the desk, said board and upright member having coacting parts for causing the board to be somewhat inclined from verticai to form a convenient back rest when in its latter position, and regardless of its vertical adjustment in such position.
