CAMPING TABLE.
This invention relates to improvements in camping tables.
The main objects of this invention are:
First, to provide an improved camping table which may be collapsed. and arranged in a very compact form for transportation or storage.
Second, to provide an improved collapsible camping table which is readily set up or knocked down and when set up is very rigid.
Third, to provide an improved combined camping table having seats constituting an assembled part thereof;
Objects relating to details and economies of construction and operation will definitely appear from the detailed description to follow. r
I accomplish the objects of my invention by the devices and means described in the following specification. The invention is clearly defined and pointed out in the claims.
A structure which is a pref-erred embodiment of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this application, in which:
Fig. I is a perspective view of my improved camping table, assembled or erected.
Fig. II is a horizontal section with the parts in collapsed position on aline corresponding to line 22 of Fig. III.
Fig. III is a transverse section on line 33 of Fig. II. j
Fig. IV is a side elevation of one of the pedestals or pairs of legs partially extended.
Fig. V is a fragmentary end elevation showing the relation of the legs when assembled.
Fig. VI is a fragmentary horizontal section with the cabinet doors extended to constitute top members.
Fig. VII is an enlarged detail section on a line corresponding to line 77 of Fig. I, showing details of the seat.
Fig. VIII is a fragmentary perspective view of one of the seat boards.
In the d 'awing similar) reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views, and the sectional views are taken looking in the direction of the little arrows at the ends of the section lines.
Referring to the drawings, I provide a box or cabinet comprising a top 1, bottom 2 and ends 3, these parts being rigidly secured together by nails or screws, the fastening means however not being illustrated.
The 4t constitute doors for the com- Application filed April 9, 1925. Serial No. 21,842.
at one side adapted to receive the collapsed legs and seats as will-be hereinafter de scribed, there being also a plurality of transverse partitions 11 providing several smaller compartments for the storage of utensils, food or the like, as is indicated by dotted lines in Fig. III.
The legs 12 are pivotally connected in pairs by means of hinges 13 so that the legs may be collapsed into parallel relation,- as shown in Fig. II, or swung to a downwardly diverging relation, their ends 14 abutting. The legs are connected by the seat support- .mg arms 15 which are pivotally connected at 16 and pivotally mounted at 17 on the inner sides of the legs. The ends of the arms abut when the arms are extended so that the downward movement of the outer ends thereof is limited and they constitute braces for the legs limiting the outward spreading thereof.
The cabinet is provided with downwardly facing A-shaped pockets 18 on the ends, the pockets being conformed to fit the extended legs, as is indicated in the drawings. I
Board-like seats 19 are detaehably mounted on the outer ends of the seat supporting arms preferably so that they constitute tie members for the pairs of legs. The seat boards 19 have tenons 20 which are engaged between the pairs of hoe-ks 21 mounted on the inner sides of the supporting arms, the hooks constituting means for supporting the boards against lateral movement.
The seats are provided with lugs 22 engaging in the hooks, see Fig. VII, so that the seats prevent the spreading of the legs. With this mounting of the seats, they are of such length that they may be arranged within the cabinet; the legs also when collapsed may be arranged within the cabinet as shown.
My improved table when erected is very and rigid; The seats constitute an.
assembled part thereof and the parts are so arranged that they serve as interacting bracing members.
