Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed April 12, 1913.
Patented Sept. 16, it 913. Serial No. 760,645.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAM Bjmsn'r'ri', a sub ject of the King of Italy, and a resident of Memphis, in the county of Shelby and State of Tennessee, have invented a new and Improved Display-Rack, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to display racks, and has reference more particularly to display racks for boxes containing merchandise, which merchandise can be easily dispensed, when desired, from the box without removing the same from the rack structure. This I obtain by providing a dis play rack comprising box supports adapted to reciprocate in a rack frame.
The invention consists of the construction and combination of parts to be more fully described hereinafter and fully set forth in the claim.
Reference .is to be had to the accompany ing drawings forming a part of this specification, in which like characters indicate corresponding parts in all of the views and in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of an embodiment of my invention; Fig. 2 is a vertical cross section through same; Fig. 3 is a horizontal section; Fig. at is a. section on line 1-1, Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a portion of the rack frame; Fig. 6 is a pcrspective View of the support; Fig. 7 is a section on line 77, Fig. 1; and Fig. 8 is a section on line 8-8, Fig. 2.
In the appended drawings, my invention is shown as applied for the display of cake boxes, which are generally of iuiiform size; so that the frame proper forms a cellular structure, all of the cells of which are equal; but it is understood that if desired cells of different size can be formed in the same rack. The frame is mounted on a base 10 formed of side members 11 in the shape of a trapezoid, each provided with a pair of casters 12 on its lower, larger parallel side. Connecting the two members 11 are longitudinal bars 13 parallel to each other and level with the upper surface of the member 11; and also connecting the two members is a longitudinal member 14 connecting the two beveled sides of the trapezoid and thus forming the front part of the base. Mounted on each of the members 11 is a pair of vertical posts 15. A member 16 extending parallel to the base 10 connects all of the Vertical members together; and braces 17 are provided from these members 16 to the rear vertical posts 15. Intel-posed between the base and the member 16 is a plurality of vertical members 18 engaging the member 16 and the bars 13 is the base.
From the above it can be seen that the space between the vertical posts 1:), the base 10 and the upper member 16, is divided by the vertical members is into a plurality of rectangles, the width of which is slightly larger than the boxes which are to be placed within. All the vertical elements 15 and 16 are provided with irregular T-shaped members 19 running transversely of the base and binding the front and rear vertical elements together. The distance between the T members and the vertical elements is such that a box with its support can pass freely. The T-shaped member 19 extends slightly be yond the rear vertical element. The reason for this will appear hereinafter. The longer branch 20 of this irregular T is pointing downward and is provided with a longitudinal slot 21. Extending slightly above the shorter branches of the T 15) is a block 22 substantially parallel to the T member 19 included between the front and rear verti all elements and extending out of same, so as to have its sides in alinen'lent with the end of the horizontally projecting branch of the adjacent T member. The block 22 and the horizontally projecting branch of the irregular T member 19 form a guideway for a support 23-}. The support 23 is formed of longitudinal members 21, engagedv between the block 22 and the T member 19, and transverse members 2? binding the longitudinal members. The rear member 25 of the support 23 engages the side members 2 1 a. distance away from the end, while the front transverse bar 25 is [lush with the extremities of the front ends of the side members The side members 24: and the transverse bars 25 are connected by means of braces 26. These braces 26 form the rest for the boxes. To the ends of the side members 2st, lying beyond the rear t ransverse bar 25, is secured an extension 27 provided with a slot 28. The slot 28 is substantially in alinement with the slot 21 of the T member 19. A bar 29 extends transversely of the support and engages the slots 28 of the extension 27, and also, with its end projecting through the extension, engages the slot 21 of the T members 19 adjacent the support. The bar 29 is adapted to move in the slots the boxes, the
28 and 21; and its ends are so formed that it can be pulled out from the support side- Wise.
The supports 23 fitting between the vertical elements divide the structure into a plurality of cells, adapted to receive a boX. manipulation of the supports, each of the supports is provided with a handle 30 so cured to the front transverse bar 25. W hen merchandise is to' be dispensed from one of support 28 carrying the box is pulled by the handle 30 in the direction of the arrow indicated in Fig. 2. This necessarily Will cause the'support to move out of the cell, carrying with it the member 29 engaging with its end the slots 21 of the T 19 until the front end of the slot is reached. See bottom of Fig. 2. This will stop the motion of the bar 29, while the support 23 will continue to move until the rear end of the slot 28 of the extension 27 comes in contact with the bar 29. This will prevent further motion of the support; and the box will be out of the frame structure so it can be openedand the merchandise dispensed; It can be easily seen that when the support is in position indicated in lower portion of Fig. 2 the ends of the said members 24 of the support 23 are still in engagement in the guideways formed by the block 22 and the T member 19.
The rear posts 15 of the frame are provided with end members 31 secured also to the side members 11 and intended to cover each of the cells being To facilitate the parallel to each other,
the portions of the support and of the T member extending beyond the vertical posts 15. The frame work being open at the ends and the front affords display of the boxes.
from three sides; similarly, the structure of the frame being an open one affords an easy cleaning of the same, which makes it sani' tary in use with thedisplay of boxes con-,
taining food products.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In a display rack, an open frame formed of a plurality of vertical members; a pair of irregular if-shaped members, disposed connected to said vertical members, each of said T members having a longitudinal groove; a member above each of said T members secured to the same vertical members; a support engaged between said members and said T members,
said support having an extension, said eX-,
tension having a groove substantially in alinement with the groove in said T memher; and a member transversely of said support engaging said grooves of said extension andof said T member for the purposes set forth. 7 I
In testimony whereof 1 have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. V
