JOHN DANNER, OF CANTON, OIIIO TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 642,962, dated February 6, 1906. Application filed May 22, 1899. Serial No- 71'7,7l4. (No model.)
To whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN DANNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Canton, in the county of Stark and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tables; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the table, showing all the dilferent parts properly connected together. Fig. 2 is a transverse section of the table-top, showing one of the fasteners in position to secure the top in position. 3 is a view showing one of the legs and illustrating an end bar connected thereto-and a cross-bar disconnected. Fig. at is a view showing a portion of one of the end bars and illustrating one of the top-retaining bars connected thereto. Fig. 5 is a view showing one of the spring bolts or catches properly located with reference to the tabletop. Fig. 6 is a bottom or under side view of the table-top. Fig. 7 is a view showing the end bars connected to the table-legs and the side bars disconnected. Fig. 8 is a view showing a portion of one of the legs, also showing a portion of an end bar and illustrating an angle-iron connected to said end bar. Fig. 9 is a detached view of one of the angle-irons. Fig. 10 is a view showing a slight modification.
The present invention has relation to tables; and it consists in the difi erent parts and combination of parts hereinafter described, and
particularly pointed out in the claim.
Similar numerals represent corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
In the accompanying drawings,1 represents the table-legs, which may be formed in the ordinary manner, reference being had to the improvements hereinafter described. The top or upper end portions of each of the legs 1 are provided with the grooves. 2, which grooves are located and arranged as illus trated in the drawings and are for the purpose hereinafter described.
To each of the legs 1 is attached a cross or connecting pin or bar 3, which connectingbar extends through the groove 2 and is so placed that it will be about midway between the open portion of the groove and the back thereof.
To the legs 1 are connected the end bars or rails 4, which end bars or rails are formed of a length to correspond substantially with the width of the table designed to be constructed, and, if desired, said end rails or bars 4 may be connected to the legs in the same manner that the side rails are connected, or they may be permanently connected to the legs, as shown.
The side rails 5 are formed of a length to correspond substantially with the length of the table designed to be constructed; but it will be understood that when it is desired to change the length of the table longer or shorter side rails may be used-that is to say, side rails three feet longer may be substituted for others six'feet long or any other desired length, the same being true of the end rails, thereby changing the length and the width of the table, reference being had to the length of the side rails and end rails, respectively.
The side rails 5 are provided with the metal fastenings 6, which fastenings are formed of a thickness to correspond substantially with the width of the grooves 2, said fastenings being provided with the notches 7, the outer member of said notches having an inclined face 8, so that when the rails are placed in proper relative position the inclined faces 8 of the fastenings 6 will come in contact with the pins 3, and thereby securely connect the rails and legs together and in such a manner that a rigid connection will be formed.
The table-top 9 is of course formed of a size to correspond with the size of the table designed to be constructed, diderent-sized tops being provided for different-sized tables.
Upon the bottom or under side of the tabletop 9 are located the cleats 10, said cleats being provided with the cut out portions 11, said cut-out portions being for the purpose of forming a groove between the bottom or under side of the top 9 and the cleats 10, said grooves being for the purpose hereinafter described.
To the end rails 4 are pivotally attached vided with the knobs 13, which knobs are for the purpose of providing a means for turning said catch-bars upon their pivotal points.
In assembling the different parts of the table if the end rails 4 are permanently connected to the legs the side rails 5 are con nected as above described, after Which the top 9 is placed in position and the catch-bars 12 turned, as illustrated in Fig. 2 and in the dotted lines, Fig. 4, and when turned in such position the inner ends of the catch-bars 12 will come over the ledges formed by the cutout portions 11, thereby securely connecting the top to the table-frame proper, and for the purpose of preventing any accidental displacement of the catch-bar 12 the spring bolt or button 14: is provided, which spring bolt or button is of the ordinaryconstruction and is provided with the ordinary rounded end 15, which rounded end will enter the socket 16, formed in the catch-bar 12.
It will be understood that by forming the socket 16 as shown and rounding the end of the button or bolt the bar 12 can be turned owing to the fact that the bolt or button will be moved endwise by reason of the inclined or rounded end upon the beveled surface of the socket 16.
If in the event it is desired to add additional strength to the table-frame, angle-irons 17 may be connected to the end rails and to the bottom or under side of the cleats 10.
In Fig. 10 I have shown a slight modification, Which consists in a pivoted button, such as 18, pivotally attached to the cleat 10, and
so arranged that When placed in the position illustrated in Fig. 10 its outer end will be received in a groove 19, formed in the-end rail t, it being understood that grooves 19 are to be formed in each of the end rails and that buttons 18 are to be located upon each of the cleats.
Itwillbe understood that by my peculiar arrangement I am enabled to provide a knockdown table, thereby reducing the bulk for the purpose of shipping and storing and at the same time am enabled to construct tables of any desired size to be used at banquets or other public gatherings, which tables can be quickly disassembled and their different parts placed in such a position that they Will occupy but a small space.
Having fully described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination of table-legs, side rails or bars detachably connected thereto, a top provided with cleats pivoted catch-bars connected to the end bars or rails and provided With sockets, and spring bolts or buttons located upon the table-top to engage the sockets located in the pivoted catch-bars, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN BANNER. Witnesses:
GEO. W. REA, Gno. E. SULLIVAN.
