Normally a set of armour has to have a display stand special made for the individual piece. This is often very expensive because it is unique to the individual piece. It is often difficult for a dealer or a collector to find some one to make such an item. Also each stand is often very different and therefore if placed along side each other could look odd.
The object of this design is to have a display stand, which will support and display most full armours i.e. universal. This is achieved by most of the components being adjustable. Also each stand can be exactly the same so as to be uniform when placed together.
Accordingly, this invention provides an armour display stand including a central post, with two fix shortened pieces, with bolts protruding, attached to these bolts are two shaped brackets which pivot. This provides for hanging the cuirass from. From this shaped bracket, seven sections of the arm are attached. All are adj ustable in length can pivot in one or more directions. An adjustable knob is fitted to the top of post to support helmet. An adjustable central piece, which is adjustable vertically up and down the central post and which has two adjustable slides which increase the depth from back to front. On the underside of this central piece, are two pieces which aft fixed and are attached to the two adjustable shaped legs. The legs are attached to feet which have vertical adjustment also The feet are bolted to the base Preferably the stand will be made of wood and can be decorated at the base with metal plates.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings which: Page B 1/5 Figure 1 shows front elevation showing whole stand.
