CHARLES W. WARNER, OF MIDDLETOWN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR T0 GOOD MANU- FACTURING COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.-, A CORPORATION OF INDIANA.
SHELF AND BAR BRACKET.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, CHARLES lV. WARNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Middletown, in the county of Middlesex and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Shelf and Bar Brackets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the construction of a bracket which is designed to support a shelf, more particularly a glass shelf such as is provided for baths and toilets.
The object of the invention is to-produce a sanitary bracket which is adapted to receive and firmly hold a shelf and also a towel or wash cloth bar. This bracket has a curved arm that extends forwardly from a base or wall plate, with mortises or recesses at the ends of the arm for receiving the edges of the shelf, a set screw that is designed to be turned up against the underside of the rear of the shelf, and one or more sockets formed in the side of the arm in position to receive the end of a towel bar or rod.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings shows a top view of a bracket which embodies the invention, this bracket having only one bar socket. These brackets, of course, are necessarily used in pairs, one only of each pair, however, is illustrated in the drawings. Fig. 2 shows a side view of the bracket shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows a transverse section on the plane indicated by the dotted line 33 on Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 shows a side view of a larger bracket that has two bar or rod sockets. I
The bracket may be cast to shape of any suitable metal, such as brass, and can be finished by nickel-plating or by any other desired treatment.
The base or wall plate 1 may be round, oval, or oblong, as taste may dictate, and it is preferably provided with two perforations 2 for the passage of the attachment screws. Extending forwardly from the base or wall plate is the curved arm 3. This arm at the top of the inner end has a mortise or recess t that opens toward the front for receiving the inner edge of a glass or other kind of shelf, and at the top of the outer end a mortise or recess 5 that opens toward the rear for receiving the outer edge of the Specification of Letters Patent.

shelf. Turning in a perforation through the lug (3 that is below the shelf mortise at the rear is a set screw 7. This set screw is designed to be screwed up beneath the inner edge of the shelf so as to clamp the shelf in position after its edges have been placed in the mortises at the ends of the arms. In the side of the arm, some distance below the mortises, are one or more sockets 8 for receiving the ends of glass or metal rods or bars.
These brackets are very simple to make, attractive in appearance, 'and are easy to secure firmly in position against a wall or other support. The edges of a glass or similar shelf of the proper width and thickness are readily inserted in the mortises and the shelf is securely held in position against endwise movement by turning up the set screw, which set screw is at the back and beneath the shelf in such location that while easy to manipulate it is inconspicuous. The ends of the glass or other towel or wash cloth bars or rods of the proper length are conveniently thrust into the sockets in the arms so that they will remain in place, and they are sufliciently below the level of the shelf to be conveniently used.
The invention claimed is:
1. A shelf bracket having a wall plate and a U-shaped arm integral with and extending from the wall plate, said arm having at its inner and outer ends forks that open toward each other and provide shelf mortises and having between the ends and below the forks a socket that opens toward the inside and is closed on the outside for supporting and preventing the lengthwise movement of the end of a bar.
2. A. combined shelf and bar bracket having a wall plate, a curved arm extending from the wall plate, said arm having at its inner and outer ends shelf mortises that face each other and having between the ends and below the shelf mortises a bar socket that opens to one side, and a set screw turning through the shelf support into the mortise at the inner end of the bracket.
