SALES-RACK FOR WIRE-CLOTH.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 13, 1912.
Patented Apr. 15, 1913. Serial No. 690,651.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADoLrH H. G. HORN- BOSTEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waverly, in the county of Lafayette and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sales- Racks for Wire-Cloth, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to an improved sales rack for wire cloth, and the object of the invention is to provide a rack upon which the rolls of wire cloth as they come from the maker may be mounted for convenient storage and exhibition and from which sales of lengths of wire cloth may be conveniently made, the portion sold being wound for delivery and the portion remaining being placed in its longitudinal position in the rack, all with the least labor on the part ofthe salesman and with the least resultant injury to the cloth, it being well known that in the handling of wire cloth and particularly of the higher grades the same is easily damaged.
Having these objects in view the inven tion resides in the arrangement and combination of parts as set out in the appended claims and as hereinafter fully described in connection with the accompanying illustrative drawings, wherein- Figure 1 is a side elevation of the invention; Fig. 2 is a top plan view; Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail showing the mounting of the lower end of the spools; and Fig. 4; is a detail showing the mounting of the upper end of the spools. Figs. 5 and 6 are details respectively, of another form of mounting for the lower and upper ends of the spools.
In these drawings the reference numeral 1 designates a support which may be provided with a plurality of pigeon holes 2 for the storage of rolls of cloth 3. Upon the upper face of this stationary support my improved rack is mounted consisting of upper and lower vertically spaced horizontally disposed hoops 1 and 5 connected with a vertical axis 6 by radial spokes 7 At its base, the axle 6 is mounted in a suitable antifriction foot-step bearing 8 and the lower spokes 7 carry ball bearing casters 9 which travel upon the top of the support concentrically of the bearing 8.
'All of the portions of the rack including the hoops, the axis and the spokes may advantageously be formed of tubular material such as ordinary gas pipe. At intervals about the outer periphery of the rack are arranged vertical spindles 10 likewise preferably made of pipe. At their lower end these spindles are supported by yokes 11 through the upper horizontal portion 12 of which the spindle extends axially with its lower end abutting against a cross plate 13 to which it is rotatably connected by the pivot 14. The two arms 15 and 16 of the yoke extend below the plate 13 upon opposite sides of the lower hoop 5 embracing the same and holding the yoke 11 in place thereon. It will be observed that this connection of the spool with the lower hoop allows of the free rotation of the spool in the yoke 11 and also permits the same to be swung from a vertical to a horizontal position using the lower hoop as a pivot or hinge.
The upper end of the spindle is detachably held to the upper hoop 1 by meansof a wire clip 17 attached to the hoop and an ranged to be swung about the upper end of the spindle or the clip may be provided with prongs 17 to enter the upper end of the tubular spindle and thus engage with the same.
Upon the lower portion of the spindle above the yoke plate 12 is mounted a collar 18 having a plane upper face upon which the end of a roll of cloth rests. A similar collar 19 is mounted upon the spindle and abuts against the upper end of the roll.
The construction thus far described is complete in itself as an adjustable rack for wire cloth, oil cloth or any other commodity which is stored in rolls but I have provided a further feature of a table 20 which is hinged at 21 to the support 1 so that it can be folded up vertically parallel to the rolls of cloth on the rack to economize space or it may be dropped into a horizontal position and there supported upon the legs 22. A reel 23 is journaled in the two ends of this table upon brackets 24 and 25 and occupies a position parallel to the table and slightly below the upper face thereof so that the upper periphery of the reel lies in substantially the plane of the table. The table is provided in its two ends with journal bearings 26 and 27 and the table occupies such a position relative to the support 1 that, when in its horizontal position the reel or wire cloth from which it is desired to cut a portion may be brought by the revolution of the rack into a position opposite the inner journal bearing 26 and when the clip 17 is released from the upper end of the spindle the spool is swung to a horizontal position and the lower and upper portions of the spindle enter the journal bearings, the spool lying prone. The free edge of the cloth is then engaged with the reel and by means of the crank 28 the desired amount is wound from the spool on to the reel. The cloth is then cut and the spool returned to its vertical position by swinging the same upon the lower hoop t as a hinge and the clip 17 dropped into engagement to hold the same in its former vertical posit-ion.
Under some circumstances, I have found it advantageous to adapt the upper end of the spindle for engagement by a crank as by squaring the same so that the spindle may be. rotated upon its pivot M to roll up the cloth which may have been drawn out therefrom for purposes of inspection.
In the alternative form of mounting for the lower end of the spindle shown in Fig. 5, the yoke 11*, has the upper portion 12 through which the spindle extends, resting upon the cross plate 18' within which it is rotatably mounted as in the former case upon the pivot 14;. The arms 15 and 16 in this case, however, are not connected below to confine the same about the hoop 5 i but are open below as shown in said figure to facilitate the removal of the spool from the, rack.
Having thus described the invention what is claimed is:
1. In a device of the character described, a support, a vertical axle mounted on the support, horizontally disposed hoops mounted upon the axle, a plurality of spools vertically supported by the hoops, a journal bracket serving as a rotary support for the lower end of each spool, said bracket formed as a yoke having depending branches taking over the lower hoop to form a hinged connection therewith, a wire clip detachably holding the upper end of each spool to the upper hoop, in combination with a table hinged to the support adjacent the periphery of the lower hoop and provided with journal bearings, whereby any one of the spools may be swung from its vertical position to occupy a prone position in the spool journals of the table, and a reel journ-aled in the table parallel to the spool journals.
2. In a device of the character described, a support, a vertical axle journaled 011 said support, a pair of spaced hoops secured to said axle, vertically extending spindles having spools mounted thereupon, the said spindles each being hingedly secured at one end to one of said hoops and detachably connected at the opposite end to the other said hoops, in combination with a table hingedly secured to said support, a pair of spaced brackets mounted upon said table, journal bearings formed within one end of said brackets for receiving said vertically extending spindles when removed from the said hoops, and areel journaled within the opposite ends of the brackets, substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. In a device of the character described, a support, a vertical axle mounted upon said support, horizontally disposed hoops mounted upon said axle, vertically extending spindles having spools mounted thereupon, yokes supported upon one of said hoops, each of said yokes comprising a pair of depending parallel arms connected at their upper ends and medial portions by means of transverse portions, the said depending arms of the yokes resting upon the lower hoop, the said upper transverse portion thereof having an aperture formed therein for the reception of the spindle, the lower end of the spindle resting upon the medial transverse portion, and clips for holding the opposite ends of said spindle to the other said hoop, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I hercunto aflix my signature in the presence'of two witnesses.
