Application filed-June 19, 1923. serial' No. 846,328.
The object of my -invention 'is to provideadresser of simple, durable and inexpensive construction, adapted for the reception of suit cases, arid for holdingthe suit case in suitable positionforopening, or-for displaying-or using the-contents of the suit case.
A further object isto provide such-adevice having a drawer or-drawers eapableof being mounted. to various heights with relation tothe floor on-which the dresser rests, and also with relation to each other for accommodating them to suit cases of {different sizes. I 'aitill -a further object is toprovide a "dresser' of' the l' nd mentioned having drawers equipped vith stop devices which are detachable and may be yieldingly held in operative position to prevent thev entire removal oit'the tlresser drawer from the dresserwhen the drawer 1s drawn outtorecelvea suit case,'or to permit the user'to have access tothe contents thereof, which stop device is also capable of beingmoved toyinoperative position for the entire removal of *thedrawer when necessary. I
' 'My invention consists in t-he construction, arrangement and combination of thejvarious parts of thedevice whereby the-objects, contel related are attained," as hereinaftermore "fully'set forth, pointed out in-my claim,
andi'llustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
1 shows afront elevation of a Figure dres r for 'su-itcases embodying I my iinven *tion. I
' Figure 2 same. I p I v I Figure *3 shows a vertical, sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1;
igure 4 "shows a horizontal, sectional view taken'on the line lof Figure 3.
Figure 5 shows a vertical, sectional view of a portion of a dresser and a rear elevation of one of the drawers in view being taken on the line 5-5 of Figure 3; and
Figure 6 shows a perspective view of one of the drawers.
vIn the accompanying drawings, I have used thereference numeral 10 to indicate generally the upright corner members which are found at the four corners of and form a part of the frame of my improved dressshows a side elevation-of the er. The two vrear corner posts '10 are longer than the front posts and support between them theframe members 11- which carrythe mirror12.
My improved dresser is provided with the ordinary top 13. Theupright members 10 at each :end otthe dresser areprovided with panel members 1-1 :atrthe upper and lower-ends of the dresser. The upper. and
dresser are connected by upright panel -members'15.
Securedto' the inner surface-of the members 10 each end of thedresser is a plurality ofhorizontal shelf supporting members 136,- arrangedto be in re ular vertical succession equallyspaced apartat eachend of thedressery Themembers l6 atone end *otthc dresser are aranged to be opposite the respective members 16st the other end of the dresser. Y
I have provided shelves or drawers of somewhatpeculiarconstruction for the reception and-display of suit cases, each comprisinga :tront upright meniberil'? having a notch- 18 permitting the suit case handle to project through. 'Each drawer or shelf has a bottom preterabl made o'l 'spaced slats '19. Each side-oi each drawer is made up of spaced pairs-of slats 20. The space be tween'theslats 20 at each side of the drawer is such asto properly receive between said 'slatsone of the members 16 for permitting the drawer to slide freely. The
parts are-so ange'd that the front 17 fills the-space between the two front members 10, and when the drawer is pushed inwardly en Hes the members 16' between the slats l wercpanel members ltat each end of the r m at each endoi the drawer for limit ng 23 having an upwardly projecting handle 24. Pivoted ofi center on the opposite sides of the disc 23 are opposite laterally extending rods25, one of the rods 25 extending slidably througha suitable opening in the upper member 20 on one side of the dresser,'
and the other member 25 extends slidably through the other member 20 on the other side of the dresser. The members 25 form locking members and are normally held at their outward limit of movement by means of a spring 26 secured to one of the members 25, and to the frame of the drawer.
The parts just described are so arranged that when the members 25 are held at their outer limit of movement, their ends project beyond the members 20, so that they form stop devices for engaging the forward members l0 and limit the outward movement of the drawer for preventing its entire removal from the dresser. It is, however, well known that suit cases are of different sizes, so that it may be necessary to adjust the drawers for arranging them at different hei hts in the dresser for receiving suit cases of different kinds.
It is also possible, when it is desired to take one of the drawers out of the dresser and put it in again to a lower or higher position by grasping the handle 24 and drawing the members 25 inwardly, withdrawing their outer ends from engagement with the members 10, or from position where such ends would otherwise engage the members 10, and thereby permit the entire removal of the drawer from the dresser. The drawer can then be inserted in a higher or lower place, and upon releasing the handle 24, the spring 26 will cause the ends of the members 25 to project beyond the members 20, forming stop devices for preventing the entire removal of the drawer from the dresser.
In the practical use of my improved dres ser, for suit cases, it will be understood that my device is designed particularly for use in hotels and the like.
The user may draw one of the drawers out and place his suit case 27 therein. The suit case cover 28 may be raised when the drawer is in its outer position for displaying the contents of the suit case and rendering them accessible to the owner without entirely removing them from the suit case. If the owner has one small suit case and one very large one, the drawers may be readily and easily adjusted at proper heights on the proper members 16 to receive both the suit cases. In this connection it may be noted that the dresser has no front members be tween the upper and lower front members,
so that the drawers maybe adjusted at any.
desired height.
v Vhen the drawers are closed and not in use, they have no projecting parts. When in use the handle of the suit case projects through the notch 18, and by pulling on the handle any drawer may be brought out of the dresser for the removal of the suit case, or displaying the contents.
My improved dresser is of extremely simple and inexpensive construction and is adapted for use to suit cases of ordinary size.
It will be understood that some changes may be made in the arrangement and construction of my improved dresser for suit cases, without departing from its essential features and purposes, and it is my intention to cover by this application any such changes which may be included within the scope of my claim.
I claim as my invention:
A dresser for suit cases comprising a stationary frame having side members, a series of equally spaced horizontally arranged guide devices on said side members, the front of the dresser being open and unobstructed, a series of drawers each comprising a bottom, sides, a front and a rear member, each side member being formed with two spaced bars designed to slidingly receive one of the guide devices on the frame, the rear member of the drawer being spaced forwardly from the rear ends of the side members of the drawer, and the front of the drawer being formed with a notch, said parts being so arranged and constructed that they may be inserted on any of the said guide devices and may be adjusted up and down in the dresser to. accommodate it for different thicknesses of suit cases, said guide devices and the bars forming the sides of the drawers being so shaped and arranged as to support the drawer in a horizontal position when the drawer is extended out to position with the rear of the drawer substantially flush with the dresser front, and a releasable means for limiting the outward movement of the drawer.
