Campbell, Kewaunee, Wis. Application March 2, 1933, serial No. 659,251 1 oiaim. (ci. 15s- 94) This invention relates to extensible or adjustable supports, and while it will be hereinafter more particularly explained as embodied in supports for stools adjustable as to height, it will be `5 readily apparent that it has `other valuable applications and uses and is easily capable of embodiment in supports in which adjustment verti-l cally, horizontally, or at angles to the horizontal and vertical are desired. i f6 The invention has for a principal objectjthe provision of an adjustable stool or seat `which may beV adjusted to desired height by merely raising the seat, retaining or locking means of improved construction and operation being `provided to support the seat in the desired raised position, together with means automatically op.- erative when the seat is lifted to its full height; to unlock said retaining means to permit lowering of the seat. 2o Numerous other objects andadvantages of the invention will be apparent as it is betterunderstood from the following description, which, .taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, discloses a preferred embodiment thereof.

[,The'preferred embodiment of the invention, which is shown in Figs. 1 to llof thedrawings, 10 isadapted for the adjustable support of stools and chairs and the like and may advantageously be'einployed when the seat of the stool Aor chair is supported upon a single pedestal or upon` a plurality of supports. In Fig. 1 a threeflegged 15 stool is depicted and in Fig. 2 a four-legged chair.
, In each ofl these constructions a rigid base is provided and` consists of tubular legs II Yand frame members I2. The legs II are or may be of metal tubing bent out beneath the lower frame member at I3 into downward inclination as indicated atk I4 and terminate in widely spaced feet I5Vto giveiirm support. Each frame memberrI2 "is `or may be but a `stamping of sheet metal having skeleton configuration correspond- 25 ing Ato .the` arrangement of the legs. Generally each `frame member consists of a horizontal part IIv and an encompassing4 downwardly extending ange jI`I. The legs lare arranged through openings I8 in the corners of the frame members. 30 Thelegs and frame members are rigidly connected in suitable fashion. Conveniently the upper frame" may be fixed in place by locking it between shoulders I0` formed in the tubular members and J the lower ends of the retainers 2l threadedlyV en- 35 gaged, asindicated at 20 in Fig. 6, with the ends of thlegs extending ythrough the openings I8. As will, be presently more fully explained, a retainer is provided at the top of each leg to lock in co-operation with parts carried by it the seat 22 in various adjusted positions.
In the ,stool of Fig. 1 the 'seat 22 is freely rotatable upon atop plate 23- which is xed upon andcarried by three supporting shafts 24V that extend down through the =retainers 2| andinto the legs II. VThe upper end of each supporting shaft 24j is jorimay be reduced in diameter, vas indicated, at 2.5. in Fig. 3. This reduced portion of the shaft'is disposed through a suitable opening provided within a countersink 26 in the sup- 50 porting plate 23 `and the extremity of the shaft is or may be riveted, as indicated atl2'l, to hold the parts together. A supporting plate 23 is preferably of vthe'same shape. as the` frame plates I2, except that it is not cut toskeleton form. 55
It is or may be provided with a circular recess 23 to provide a raceway for a ball bearing unit 29. The seat 22 is mounted upon an under plate Si recessed at 32. to provide a companion raceway for the bearing. A king or pivot bolt 33 is arranged at the axis of rotation to hold the parts in fixed rotatable relation.
The preferred form of locking mechanism for supporting the seat in variously vertically adjusted positions is illustrated in detail in Figs. 6 to Il and is duplicated in each of the legs ofthe stool.
In this construction the shaft and the adjacent parts are circular in cross-section. The retainer is provided interiorly and near its top with a downwardly converging conical face lil which converges with the cylindrical face of the shaft.
A plurality of balls l2 are arranged betweenthese converging faces to provide free rolling locking members adapted to bind by reason of engagement with the shaft in its downward movement or under the pressure of its load. It is possible to have a single ball or free rolling member to lock the parts in their assumed positions, but a series of them are desirable to eliminate side thrusts or lateral strains. From so much of the construction as is justr described, it will be apparent that the seat of the stool may be raised by merely lifting it. This action tends to roll the balls up out of binding relation with the surfaces of the retainer and shaft. The least movement of the shaft in the opposite direction, however, returns them into wedged locking relation to support the shaft, seat, and person sitting upon it.
Means are` provided for moving the balls 42 or other fre-e rolling members out of operative position and to hold them from engagement when it is desired to lower the stool. In vthe instant embodiment of the invention this means comprises a sleeve i3 arranged between the inner cylindrical surface M of the retainer beneath the conical or converging wall M and the adiacent face or outer cylindrical surface of the supporting shaft 2s. The lower end of the sleeve i3 is tapered, as indicated at d5. A recess 48 is cut circumferentially in from the surface @d of the retainer and a spring ring member 41 is arranged in this recess to contract inwardly about the sleeve and frictionally hold it in assumed positions.
The lower end of the supporting shaft 211 is slotted circumferentially at 68 and e9 to receive rings 50 and 5l which form protruding shoulders and the dimension of the parts is such that these shoulders fit nicely and easily in sliding engagement within the bore of the leg. The upper ring 50 is so located that when the seat of the stool is nearing the end of its upward travel the ring 5@ engages the sharpened edge d5 of the lower end of the sleeve d3 and moves the sleeve upwardly so that its top edge engages and lifts the balls out of position for locking contact with the converging surfaces of the sleeve and shaft. In this movement the sleeve is carried past the friction ring if into the position shown in Fig. 7. The seat of the stool may now be lowered without obstruction by the balls to its lowermost position. Means are provided to automatically return the sleeve into inoperative position so that the balls or free rolling members may re-engage to lock in successive adjusted positions as the seat is again raised.
The chamber inrwhich the balls are contained is closed at the top by an annulus 52 arranged v surfaces.
about the shaft and firmly engaged at 53 with the upper open end of the retainer. A ring 56 is arranged about the shaft and above the balls 42 and is provided with a plurality of upwardly eX- tending arms 55 which are arranged through slots 55 cut in the annulus 52 for the purpose. The ring member 513 is freely movable through the annulus and rests upon the balls at all times and serves during the adjustments of the seat to press the balls into engagement with the converging The ring member 561 is lifted with the balls as they are elevated by the sleeve 13, and the top limit of movement of the seat is reached when the ring member engages the inner face of the annulus 52. As the supporting shaft is moved down, the ring member is held in this top position by the sleeve acting through the balls. When the seat approaches the lower end of its travel, a lshoulder 5l extending out circumferentially at the top bey-ond the body of the shaft engages the tops of the upwardly extending arms 55 and forces the ring member, the balls, and the sleeve downwardly, as may be illustrated in Fig. 8, and until the balls limit the downward movement by wedging between the converging surfaces. As a result of this movement, normal arrangements permitting the adjustments described are re-established. The shoulder 5l is or may be provided upon a bushing 58 arranged about a reduced top portion 59 of the shaft, as may be observed in Fig. 8.
Various forms of shafts and various forms of free rolling members may be provided. Attention in this respect is called to Figs. l2 and 13 as illustrative constructions, although it will be apparent that other forms also might be employed. In these two figures the shaft indicated by reference character Si is square in transverse section and accordingly fits into a square bore t2 in the retainer 63. Either balls or roller members Sii may be provided between the converging surface of the retainer and the presented face 66 of the supporting shaft. The sleeve which lifts the rollers out of operative position, which is indicated at 6l, likewise is or may be of square inner and outer conguration. The spring member 68 conveniently is of general rectangular shape with its sides 69 bent in for pressure engagement with the flat presented surfaces of the sleeve B1. Thus constructed, the parts operate exactly in the manner already described and Figs. 6, '7 and 8 may be taken to be vertical central sections through the structures of Figs. l2 and 13.
As has been earlier suggested, the invention has or may have valuable use when arranged horizontally for supporting bodies in various adiustable positions. All that is necessary for hori- Zontal arrangement is the provision of means to insure that the balls Ior other free rolling membersmaintain contact both with the converging surface and the shaft surface. This may be accomplished as illustrated in Fig. 14, by the arrangement of a spring H between the ring member 5d and the closure annulus 52. It is desirable to provide shoulders 12 on the arms 55 to stop the outward movement of the sleeve, independently of the spring 'H and before it is compressed to solid condition.
Stools of the character shown in Fig. l are not infrequently used in laboratories and other places where it is important that the user may quickly arrange the stool in the same adjustment upon different occasions, and accordingly indicated means are or may be provided. A slot 8| is arranged through one of the legs I l and between the frames I2. An indicator 82 secured to the lower end of the supporting shaft 24 is arranged through the slot 8| and has a pointer 83 overlying a scale 84 provided upon the outer face of the leg along side the slot. Repeated adjustment of the height of the seat may be accomplished by bringing the pointer 83 to the same scale reading upon successive occasions.
It is thought that the invention and many of its attendant advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that Various changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the form hereinbefore described be* ing merely a preferred embodiment thereof.
I claim:
In an extensible construction, the combination of a supporting shaft movable axially for adjustment, a retainer Xed in position and embracing said shaft and having an inner surface angularly arranged with respect to said shaft, a free rolling member arranged between the angularly disposed face of the retainer and the presented face of the shaft, a member movable longitudinally of said shaft and seated on sai'd free rolling ,member and having a part extending beyond the retainer, a sleeve embracing the shaft within the retainer and frictionally engaged with the retainer, means operating at the end of movement of the shaft in one direction and actuating said sleeve tol move said free rolling member into an enlarged portion of said retainer and out of locking position, and a shoulder arranged at the outer end of the shaft for engaging said part beyond the retainer upon movement of the shaft in the opposite direction to move said sleeve to an inoperative position and said free rolling member into operative position.
