UNITED STATES WILLIAM F. HOHORST, 0F THE 'UNITED STATES ARMY.
stroom.
Application iiled January 19, 1923. Serial No. 613,783.
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, WILLIAM F. HoHons'r., technical sergeant, Air Service, United States Army, a citizen of the United States, residing at Monrovia, Calif., have invented an Improved Stool, of which the following is a specication.
This invention relates toimprovements in stools, more especially to a type of stool that may be knocked down, and stored or shipped in a small space. This improved stool is particularly adapted for use in mess halls or by campers.
The objects are to provide a substantial stool of a very simple, durable and inexpensive character, having the minimum number of parts of such formation as to need no matching, the leg units being identical in form and may therefore be interchangeable.
These and other objects will appear in the description, and be inally pointed out in the claims.
Similar numerals indicate corresponding` parts in all the figures of the drawings in which:
Fig. l is a perspective view of the improved stool.
Fig. 2 is a vertical section of same.
Fig. 3 is an elevation of one of the leg units.
Reference now being had to the drawings, l is the seat member; 2, the leg units, said leg units consisting` of the vertical or sup porting member 3, the horizontal brace member 4, and the diagonal brace member 5.
The leg units 2 are identical in form, and are adapted to be assembled with two other legs of corresponding formation to support the seat member l; various ways of making the joints between the leg units and between the leg units and seat member may be found advisable. The form shown in the drawings is a preferred manner of' making these joints, and consists of a dowel member 6 formed at the upper end of the supporting member 3 of the leg, which is adapted to be seated in a socket 7 formed in the under face of the seat member l. The free end of the horizontal brace member 4 is provided with a cut-away portion 7 adapted to partly iit around the vertical member 3 of the adjoining leg member.
To further secure dowel 6 in the seat member7 the small screw 8, having its head countersunk flush with the upper surface of the seat member, is inserted into thevdowel member through the upper surface of the seat member. serted into the end of horizontal brace members 4 through the vertical member of the adjoining leg member as shown.
In the structure here shown, small retaining screws 8 and 9 may be withdrawn and the leg units shown in Fig. 3, all of which are of identical form, may be laid one upon the other and the seat member'. l
stacked upon the legs, with the result that a j large number of stool parts can be packed or stacked in the space occupied by a pern manently built stool. If any one of the four parts going to make up this improved stool is damaged, itv may be replaced without discarding the entire stool.
It is understood that while the illustration shows a stool of wood construction, I do not limit myself to any material, it being obvious that a stool may be constructed of steel, iron, or other material without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A knockdown stool, having a seat member and a plurality of rigid supports of triangular shape removably mounted at their upper ends in the seat member each consisting of vertical seat supporting members and horizontal brace members permanently mounted at one end near the lower end of said seat supporting member and removably secured at its other end to the adjoining seat supporting member, and diagonal brace member permanently mount# ed at its upper end near the y upper end of said seat supporting member and secured at its lower end near the outer end of said horizontal brace, removable means for securing the supports to the seat, and removable means for securing horizontal brace to the adjoining brace.
2. A knockdown stool, having a seat menr ber and seat supporting units secured together near their lower end, allconsisting of frames of triangular shape, one member of each frame being adapted to form a support for the seat and the other members of said frame forming braces for the supporting members.
