BOX.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 487,150, dated November 29, 1892.
Application filed January 23, 1892. Renewed November 2, 1892. Serial No. 450,745. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern/.-
Be it known that I, IVILFRED I. OHMER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayt0n, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in File-Boxes, of which the following is a specication, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in tile-boxes and cases, the peculiarities of which will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, on which like reference-letters indicate corresponding parts, Figure 1 represents aperspective View of a filecase or cabinet and tile-boxes mounted therein; Fig. 2, a sectional view of a portion of said case and a file-box in open position; Fig. 3, perspective views of one form of sliding connection; Fig. 4, a sectional view of a guide and portion supporting it, the movable piece being mounted therein; and Fig. 5, a perspective view of another form of sliding connection.
The letter A designates a cabinet divided into compartments adapted to receive fileboxes B or other suitable holders for les to be placed therein. The upper part of the cabinet, is provided with wider compartments for the reception of special forms of papers or tiles. The sliding connection may be made of various forms. It consists, essentially, of a piece mounted on one member and adapted to slidingly engage with a matching piece pivotally mounted at a fixed point on the other member, whereby the tile-box may be drawn out and allow the inspection of the le without normally disengaging the said pieces. The box may, however, be detached from the cabinet, if so desired, as will be hereinafter explained. I have illustrated herein several forms of this connection. One form (shown in Figs. 3 and 4) consists of the guides O C, with a central channel between them, and constituting Ways in which may slide the matching-piece D, having a pivotal attachment with its attaching-plate E, which is secured by screws or otherwise to the shelf A of the cabinet. Another form is shown in Figs. 5 and 2, the guides C in this form being embraced by projections (l from the movable piece D', instead of being outside of said projections, as in Fig. 4. The pivotal connection with the attaching-plate is the same in each form. The bent-outward or angular form of the pieces D D is to allow of projecting the portions cl beyond the edge of the shelf A when the box is lowered and above the surface of the shelf when the box is slid into the compartment.
Fig. 2 shows the box supported by the piece D against the end of the guides C, which are turned over or otherwise adapted to form a stop for the projections d. The box may thus be readily withdrawn from its compartment by a handle b, the projections traveling from near one end of the guide till they are stopped at the other end of the guide as the box is drawn outward and downward. The files are preferably set on end, as shown at G, Fig. 2, being held by any convenient form of lock H, mounted on bars I. The files, it will be seen, are in proper position for examination and the desired paper may be readily picked out by inspection. The saving of time, the freedom from confusing the papers, and the readiness of filing away and returning the box to place are evident.
If it be desired to detach the box, the latter may be drawn out and turned half-way around to bring the projection al into the central opening of the guides when the form shown in Fig. 3 is used. Then the other forms are used, the bottom of the guide may be cut away, as shown in Figs. 2 and 5, so that by raising the box after it is drawn out to the position shown in Fig. 2 the projections d will be freed from the guides.
I have described the pivotal piece as mounted in the cabinet-shelf and the guides therefor carried by the file-box. The above pieces may be reversed in their position, the guides being mounted in the cabinet and the pivotal piece on the box, without affecting the principle of my connections. I do not therefore limit my invention to the exact arrangement or form of construction herein shown and described.
. Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination, with a file-box and a IOO su pporting-case therefor, of guides carried by said box and a pivoted piece consisting of two members and constituting a connection between the tile-box and said case, one member of said connection having a head adapted to engage with said guides and extend out beyond the edge of thecase andthe other member pivotally connected to the first member and secured to the case near the edge thereof, whereby the outer member will swing out beyond its pivot-point to adjust itself to the open position of the file-box and swing inward as the box is slid backward into its case.
2. The combination, with a file-box having guides and a case therefor, of a connection between said [ile-box and case', having a sliding action and a swinging action and consisting; of a plate recessed within the bottom of said case near the outer edge, an d a pivoted portion hinged to said plate and adapted to extend beyond said edge to sliding-ly engage with the guides of said [ile-box and support the same in its open position, the said pivoted portion being thrown backward on its pivot when the iile-box is slid into the case.
3. The combination, with a file-box and a case therefor, of a guiding-plate secured to the bottom of said box and consisting of guiding edges having entering portions near one end and forming a stop at the other end and a pivotal piece having lugs or fingers adapted to be slidingly engaged with said guide by one end and turn about a fixed point or pivot near the edge of said case at the other end, whereby the said box may be detachably mounted on said pivotal cennection and be slid back and forth thereon, substantially as described.
4. The combination, with a {ile-box and a case, of a guide-plate recessed within the bottom of said box and having guiding edges forming grooves in said recess open at one end and turned-in end portions forming a stop and a connection beyond said case and box, consisting of a pivoted member having' fingers turned inward to embrace said guide, the pivotal attachment of said member to the case being near the outer edge thereof, whereby the said open end will admit the fingers of the pivotal piece and the {ile-box may be turned on the pivot of the connection as a center and slid backward into its case.
5. The herein-described connection between a [ile-box and case, the same consisting of a plate portion adapted to be screwed to the oase and a hinged portion D, provided with fingers cl, substantially as shown. and described.
6. The herein-described guiding-plate, the
v same consisting of guiding edges C, raised above a central portion adapted to be secured to a file-box, the ends of said guiding portions being turned over to constitute stops, subs stantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I affix mysignature in presence of two witnesses.
