CABINET FOR HOLDING GAMES,
Application filed May 25,1922. Serial No. 563,701.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, AIBERT R. HAGER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Shanghai, in the Republic of China, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cabinets for Holding Games, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to an im proved construction of cabinets andwill be fully understood from the following description, illustrated by. the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the cabinet with the door closed;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the cabinet;
Fig. 8 is a front elevation'of the cabinet on an enlarged scale with the door open; and
-Fig. 4: is a longitudinal sectional view through the cabinet with the door open and pushed back into the cabinet, other positions of the door being shown in dotted lines. o
The cabinet may suitably have the form of a rectangular parallelepiped, the body of the cabinet being formed of side members 5, top and bottom members 6 and 7 respectively, and a back member 8. These members may suitably be constructed of wood and angular metallic plates or brace mem-.
here may be applied at the several corners of the cabinet.
Within the cabinet a plurality of spaced fixed partitions 10 are provided extending parallel to the base 7 of the cabinet. The lowermost of the partitions 10 is spaced above the base of the cabinet by a distance suflicient to permit the slidable movement of the door 11 between them. Between the partitions 10 are disposed slidable and withdrawable drawers 12, and between the uppermost partition and the top of the cabinet is disposed a sli'dable, withdrawable drawer 13. In the form shown, the spacings between the various partitions are substantially the same, the height of the drawers 12 being substantially the same. The spacing between the uppermost partition 10 and the top of the cabinet is shown as being greater than the spacing between the several partitions, and the height of the drawer 13 is likewise reater than the height of the draw ers 12. /Vithin the drawer 13 may suitably be provided a vertical partition or partitions 14;. The cabinet as thus constructed is suitable for use as a container for the pieces of games such as (10111111085, Chinese and games using similarly shaped pieces, the like, the drawers 1?. being of a height such that the pieces; employed may lay flat therein and the drawer 13 being suitable for is thereby immediately detected, as it will cause the line of pulls to be broken.
The cabinet forming the subject of this application has been more especially designed for the containing of the piecesused in Chinese games, wherein more; than the usual game pieces and counters are employed. An advantage of the disappearing door closing the entire front of the cabinet is that it is always at hand and can not become displaced, as it is not detachable from the cabinot itself. I
A; further feature or advantage, and an important one to the player of the game referred to, is the multiplicity of drawers. The top drawer is of greater depth than the other four of the series of drawers, and is employed for containing the counters used in scoring the game. The four drawers below the counter drawers are of equal depth and are used to contain the large number of. pieces used in playing games of the character referred to. v
The great advantage of having these four lower drawers is that each drawer will hold a single layer of the game pieces. During the. game each player may use one of these drawers as a. tray to contain his count-- makers make a cabinet so that one of the drawers will not exactly fit within the aperture provided for another drawer. That is the drawers are not easily interchangeable and the diagonal errengement of the drawer pulls thus readily indicates, Without numbering the drawers, the relative position of the slide for Which each drawer was originally made.
The door 11, in closed position as indicated in dotted lines in Figure 4%, is positioned With its edges within the'side and base members of the cabinet, and atitstop abuts against the top member of the cabinet. It is he d in. th s pes t xm y means a spring catch 15' secured to the top of the ,ceb inet a e aes' ne' e e pendi g member 16 on the door. A plunger 17 extending through the top of the cabinet, on. depression, release the top member. 7
the lower end of the door. pins 18 extend laterelly into grooves 19. formed in the side members ot. the cabinet; these grooves e2;-v -tend irein the front of the eabinetinwardly Near u tantial y 12 al l e he as e th 11. ,I s and likew extend. up ard y fer a short distence, as shown in full lines Figur n Open g-the in w n. h
