,The invention relates to means,- and has as an object the provision of a device designed for maximum `convenience in minimum space, i
"It is a-further object to provide a combined closet, chiionier, cupboard, tie` rack andshelf spacein a space such as that usually devoted to a closet in dwellings or apartments.
It is a further object to provide a structure providing the above-named conveniences that may bemanufactured andsold-as a unit ready forA installation. y l Y It is a further object `to provide a structure that may be embodied in a self-contained furniture ^unit. `I i Further objects will appear from the following description .when `read with thel accompanying drawings showing illustrative embodiments of the invention and wherein:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the interior structure of the device, the door and front wall being omitted and the cylindrical casing shown in section;
Figure 2 is a horizontal section on line 2-2 of Figure 1 showing the front wall and door of a built-in device;
Figure 3 is a detail vertical section on line 3-3 of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a detail vertical section of a stop device on an enlarged scale; 1
Figure 5 is a detail elevation of a drawer slide on an enlarged scale;
Figure 6 is a detail section on line 6-6 of Figure 5 Figure 7 is a diagrammatic plan view of two built-in devices opening into different rooms;
Figure 8 is a diagrammatic view of a built-in unit as installed in a corner of a room;
Figure 9 is a diagrammatic view of a form of the invention marketable as a self complete article of furniture; and
Figure 10 is a like View of a form designed to fit a corner of an existing room.
As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, a structure is provided that may be installed in a house while under construction or in existing living quarters, in both instances the device comprising a cylindrical shell I I having a portion of the full cylinder omitted and with the edges secured to a door frame I2, upon which is hung a door I3.
Within the cylinder II is shown a column I4 mounted to revolve in an upper bearing I5 from which it may be suspended. Desirably, however, a lower bearing I6 shown in dotted lines in Figure l is provided.
Togset off a space for drawers 2|, there are shown partition members 22, 23 extendingcontinuously between the shelves Il, I8V in a vertical direction and `from the column I4 to the perimeters of the shelves. As shown the ' partitions 22, 23 are integral at their inner edgesand formed into a channel at 24, shown as secured to the column' I4.
To complete drawerspaces there are shown vertical partition members l25, 26 formed with square beads 2l at `their front edges. The drawers 2I` are shown' 'as slidably mounted `on the parti- ns 25,26 by rollers and runners o i `a well known type 30 by means of `which the drawers may be pulled well out of the enclosing space.
Desirably, and as shown, the upper drawer space is utilized as a cupboard shelf closed by a false drawer front 21a hinged to a shelf at 2B, collapsible braces being provided as indicated at 29.
To support garment hangers, an arcuate rod 3| is shown in Figure 3 secured at its ends to the partitions 22, 23 as indicated at 32, 33.
To stiffen the partitions 22, 23, they are shown as formed at their free edges with bead members 34, 35.
For storage of neckties, racks 36, 31 are shown in the spaces at the sides of partitions 25, 26.
If desired, and as shown, a mirror 38 may be mounted on the back of the door I3. So equippedV it is possible for a person to dress completely without leaving a position in front of the device.
When the door I3 is open the entire interior portions of the device may be turned, when the top and bottom shelves I'I, I8, will travel in the dot and dash arc 48 of Figure 2 bringing the garments hanging upon rod 3|, and articlees on the rear of the shelves to positions of ready access.
To locate the revolving portion of the device in the position for closing the door I3, a yielding stop is shown in detail in Figure 4, comprising a casing 39 carried by the bottom shelf I8 and a spring pressed pin 40 which is designed to slip out of and into the socket 4I when the device is rotated.
The structure including the door frame I2 with the door ready hung is designed as an :article of convenience. The partition framing 42, may
be built around the door frame and the casings 43 applied, when the device is ready for use.
Figure 7 shows two of the devices installed in positions for access from adjoining rooms, and Figure 8 illustrates a corner installation which may be used in an existing apartment.
In Figures 9 and 10 are shown forms of the invention illustrating its use as a self-contained article of furniture, one for a corner situation requiring no mechanical work for installation.
When so constructed, the outer walls 44, 45 make the inner cylindrical casing I l unnecessary, but arcuate guide panels 45, 41 should be provided to guide swaying garments to the door opening. Otherwise, the structure of these forms may be identical with that already described.
Minor changes may be made in the physical embodiments of the invention within the scope of the appended claim without departing from the spirit of the invention.
I claim:
A wardrobe structure comprising: a xed enclosing structure formed with a `door frame; upper and lower closures for the structure; la column extending between said closures and revoluble relative thereto; upper and lower shelves formed as segments of circles greater than semicircles with the chordof each of less length than the opening of said frame, the chords of said segments standing in a common plane spaced within the plane of the door frame; a V-shaped partition secured at its apex' to said column, extending vertically between said shelves and secured thereto with free edges of said partition adjacent to but spaced along the perimeters of said shelves from the jambs of said door frame; vertical partitions extending from the ends of the respective chords rearwardly with their rear edges secured to the respective wings of the V-shaped partition and with e their upper land lower ends secured to the respective seg- REFERENCES CITED The following references are of record in the file of this Ipatent:
