CHARLES G. MARKS, 0F WAUKEGAN, ILLINOIS.
s'rooL AND THE LIKE.
Application filed. January 17, 1925. Serial'No. 3,025.
To all lwhoml Iit may' concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES G. MARKS', a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Wvaukegan, in the county of Lake and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement inl a Stool and the like, of lwhich the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same.
My present invention relates to stools and the like for seating customers at the counters of cafs, restaurants, and similar places, and has more particular reference to the manner of constructing and assembling the divers parts in the stool. y
@ne of the objects of my invention resides in providing a stool having a standard that is fabricated from sheet metal so that its weight is materially reduc-cd, and said standard is so constructed at its upper and lower ends that it will readily receive and hold respectively the bushing for the spindle of the rotatable seat and the widened orflared base for supporting the standard. Also I have' provided a bracket that is secured to the under-side ofthe seat, which bracket is formed from a` pattern cut out of sheet metal that is bent so as to provide an integral spindle for assembly with the bushing in the upper end of the standard and has arms coacting-With the seat. The whole device is novel and sturdy in construction, is capable of ready assembly, and is made from. a few parts by simple assembly operations so that it may be manufactured at an economical figure and the stool sold for a moderate price. Further objects will be apparent after an understanding of my invention is had, v
I prefer to carry out my invention and aci complish the yaforesaid objects in substantially the manner hereinafter fully described and as more particularly pointed out in the claims, reference being now made to the accompanyingv drawings that form a part of this specification:
Fig. l is a vertical section taken longitudinally through the standard of the stool.
Fig. 2is .a transverse section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1, and. drawn to an enlarged scale.
Fig. 3 is a similar view on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the seat bracket, a portion thereof being in section.
Figure 5 is a plan of the blank from which the bracket is fabricated.
Fig. 6 is a perspective of the bracket and y spindle after the blank has been formed.
Fig. 7 is a perspective of the bearing diskl removed from the bracket. ,y
The accompanying drawings 'illustrate a vtypical or preferred embodiment of my invention and in the drawings similar reference characters designate ,like parts throughout the several views. J
Referring primarily to Figs. 1, 2, and 3 it will be observed the standard 10 preferably is formed from sheet metal of a desirable gauge for sturdiness and is-hollow or cylindrical from end to end and it is given .a slight taper from the 'bottom towards the top. The standard may be rectangular, circular or other desired shape in cross-section, and the longitudinal edges of the pattern are secured together lafterthe cylinder has been formed by a seam 11 that is disposed wardly towards its upper end, and one of its walls has a slot or recess 15 cutdownwardly from the upper edge so that the metal will extend upon each'. side of the seam 11 of the standard; In assembling the fitting is accomplished by forcing the one element upon the other and securing the same in position by spot-welding or the like. A metal. bushing 16 of slightly greater diameter than the diameter of the upper end of the standard is driven into the latter until the lateral flange 17 on the upper end of the bushing comes into contact with the edge of the metal forming the standard. This driving action or fitting of the bushing into-the standard will bulge the side walls of the latter outwardly as indicated at '17 in Fig. 2 of the drawing land the parts upon the underside of the seat that consists of a spider having preferably three horizon-l tal arms 20 that project laterally and radially from the upper end of an integral spindle 21. The bracket is preferably formed from sheet metal of a heavier gauge than that of the standard and is formed from a blank of substantially rectangular shape as illustrated in Fig. 6 'of the drawings. There lare two longitudinal slots 22 cut out into'the blank from one edge thereof so that the fingers 20 may be formed by bending the metal outwards. The opposite portion of the blank`is preferably rolled into a cylindrical shape so that the opposite edges of the metal are brought together and may be butt-welded to secure the same together. After the bracket has been shaped and assembled in the manner described a washer or apertured disk 23 is slipped onto the spindle 2l up to the juncture of the latter with the arms of the spider and the washer assembled therewith by welding or otherwise, so that it assists in maintaining the cylindric formation of the spindle in the event the edges of the metal should accidentallybecome separated. This washer 23 also provides abearng element to engage with the upper surface of the ange of the bushing 16 when the spindle is inserted into the latter. The' seat 19 is assembled with the bracket by means` of screws or the like that are passed through screw-holes'24 in the outer ends of the arms of the bracket and are screwed into the under-side of the seat, which is usually of wood or is provided with means to receive the screws.
While I have herein illustrated and described a specific manner of carrying out my invention it will be obvious to others that divers changes and modifications may be madel without materially departing from the principles involved, and I therefore de- `sire it understood that such changes as may be made are fully contemplated as coming within the scope of the appended claim, and I desire such breadth of interpretation given to said claim as is warranted by the prior state of the art.
What I claim is A stool comprising a standard formed from sheet metal and cylindrical in crosssection, a bushing driven into the upper end of said standard'whereby to bulge the walls of the latter outwardly,- a base having a tapered extension inserted in the lower end. of said standard, a rotatable seat, a spindle consisting of a cylinder of sheet metal removably mounted in said bushing, and integral sheet-metal arms projecting radially from the upper end of sald spindle and secured to the underside of said seatl Signedat Chicago, Cook-County, Illinois, this 12th dayof January, 1925.`
