Definitions

  • Round or oval tables of a known kind which can be enlarged on all sides are of a very complicated construction so that they have not been generally adopted.
  • segment-shaped enlarging pieces it has been proposed to divide the top part of the frame into sections and to' make these sections capable of being hinged downwards.
  • the subdivision of the top part of the frame into a number of parts and the fact that the said parts of the frame must be unlocked and locked again both renders the manipulation of the table dimcult and renders the structure insecure.
  • each section of the top part of the frame is provided with a hinged sub-section, which serves as a supporting rail i'or the enlarging pieces. Furthermore as the xed table top covers the enlarging mechanism the difliculties in operating the table are considerably increased.
  • the table top being :arranged to move upwards for enabling the enlarging segments to be removed from the space within the top part of the frame to the outside and vice versa.
  • the top part of the frame itseli'll remains stationary and can provide very elllcient support for the enlarging segments.
  • the table top maybe composed of two halves hinged together and the pile of segments belonging to one half of the jtable top may be hinged to the top part of the frame in such a manner that on the half of the table top being hinged up, the pile of segments can be hinged out of the inoperative to the operative position and vice versa.
  • This arrangement l has the further advantage that the hinging out'- wards of the enlarging elements may take place as it were automatically. For this it is only necessary to provide between the half of the table top and the pile of segments belonging to it a exible. pivotal or other connection, which makes the movement'of the half table top and the pile of segments interdependent.
  • Fig. 1 is a plan view of a table with a twopart table top
  • Fig. 2 is aside view of the upper part of the table according to Fig. 1. partly in section.
  • the table top is divided into two halves; ⁇ a and b which are hinged together.
  • the enlarging parts are in the form of segments c, three segments being in each case combined to form a unit, so that one group of segments is composed of the segments c1, c, c and the other group of the segments C4, c, c".
  • the segments of a group are connected together by hinges d and e so that in each case three segments can be superposed to form a pile (Fig. 2).
  • Each pile of segments is supported by two supporting arms f which are connected to the top part h of the table frame by a hinge joint g.
  • the inner edge of the frame h is constructed in stepped formation the hinges g being connected to the free edges of the intermediate step so that when the arms f are in inoperative position they are supported on, the lower step and when in an operative position are supported on the intermediate step passing through a groove in the upper edge of the frame.
  • This arrangement permits the sections a and b to also engage the upper edge of the frame when the arms are arranged in an opposite position.
  • Fig. 2 shows how the pile of segments is brought from the. inoperative into the operative position and vice versa.
  • the table top half a is raised.
  • the pile of segments is also raised.
  • Fig. 1 The broken lines in Fig. 1 indicate how the pile of segments is housed inthe space within the top part of the frame.
  • a bar :i is preferably provided in the top part of the table frame, for supporting the pile of segments. Suitable locking devices may of course be provided between the two groups of segments for obtaining a closed rigid enlarged Dart.
  • a table including an open supporting frame, a top on the frame including a pair of sections hinged with respect to each other and each adapted for vertical swinging movement relative 2.
  • each top section and the outermost enlarging me1riber onthe adjacent supporting arm for the purpose of causing an upward swinging motion and partial raising of said arm With the pile of enlarging members thereon upon the raising of each top section.
