1 Claim. 1
This invention has to do with a serving table of the type provided with casters or wheels, whereby the table is portable and can be readily moved from one place to another.
The invention has as an object a portable serving table embodying a structure by which the table to sections may be extended to form a recess in which a tray is removably positioned.
The invention consists in the novel features and in the combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawings in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a serving table embodying my invention.
Figure 2 is a View, similar to Figure 1, with the top sections of the table extended and the tray positioned between the extended sections.
Figure 3 is a top plan view of the table frame with the top sections removed.
Figure 4 is an end elevational View of the table.
The table consists of a rectangular framework having side members and end members I I, I2, forming a rectangular structure supported at the corners by legs I3, the lower ends being mounted on casters M. The legs I3 are connected by diagonally extended braces [5.
The end rails ll, l2, are formed with dovetailed notches to slidably receive supporting rails for the table top sections l6. One top section It is fixedly secured to like end portions of a pair of supporting rails 11, and the other top section secured to a similar pair of rails l8. The end member H is formed with a pair of notches to slidably receive the rails 11, the opposite ends of which normally abut against the end rail l2. The end rail I2 is notched to slidably receive the supporting rails 18, the inner ends of which normally abut against the end member H. A cross member 19 secured centrally in the frame structure is notched to slidably receive all four of the rails I1, I 8. This arrangement permits the top sections to be extended to form a recess substantially commensurate with the top area of the framework for the reception of a tray 20. With the top sections [6 extended and the tray 20 positioned on the framework between the extended sections, as shown in Figure 2, the available table top area is increased substantially one hundred percent, whereby the device may be used to transport complete service for a number of persons. The arrangement is such that the tray 20 may be positioned upon the cross braces l5 when the table is used in the conventional manner. Accordingly, the table is particularly advantageous for serving buffet meals or the like, permitting the transportation of food and chinaware in one trip for a relatively large group of persons, or it may be used as a conventional serving table when the leaves are in closed position and the tray is available for tray use.
What I claim is:
A portable serving table comprising a rectangular frame supported by legs, a cross member mounted centrally in the frame and extending transversely thereof, a pair of table top supporting rails slidably mounted in each end of said frame and said cross member and extending to the opposite end of the frame, a top section secured to each pair of said rails, and said top sections abutting at the center of the frame, each pair of rails and the top section carried thereby being movable outwardly from the ends of said frame to form a recess substantially commensurate with the top area of the frame.
LEOPOLD STICKLEY.
