T0 aZZ who/m it may concern ie it known that I, CELU BnRNsTnIN, a citizen of the United States, and resldent of New York, in the county and State of New `York, have invented certain new and useful mproveinents in Card-Display Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My iir-:cntion relates to a holder for reference sheets and is suitable for exhibiting purposes generally. 4
The object of my invention is to provide a frame or holder suitable for use in schooirooms and similar places upon which a number of indexed reference sheets may be held in such a position that they may readily be accessible and brought vinto view without delay and considerable manipulation.
The above and other objects and the novel features of niy invention will be apparent from the following description, taken iu connection with the drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a front e-levation of a card holder embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same; and Fig. 8 is a perspective view of detail.
Referring to the drawing, the card holder einbodying my invention comprises two upright supporting standards holding between them a plate P of card-board or some other rigid and light material.
The two standards employed for supporting the card-board are identical in construction and therefore it is necessary to describe the construction of one of them only. Each standard comprises two parts, namely, a substantially triangular foot part and an elongated part capable of holding one side of the plate P and supported by the foot part.
The elongated part of each standard comprises a single length of fiat comparatively narrow metal bent upon itself intermediate its ends as at 10. The strip of metal is bent as at 11 and 12, near its ends, so that when the parts 13 and 14 between the bends ll and 12 and the ends are clamped together, the part of the strip between the bend 10and the bends 11 and 12 will' be spa-ced apart a suitable distance to receive the edge of the plate P between the parallel Sections 15 and 16.
The parallel members 15 and 16 are each bent inwardly as at 17, 18 and 19, 20 to provide interior opposed beads in the space between the parallel members 15 and 16 capable of engaging the faces of the plate 1) to grip the same. The parallel members 15 and 16 being of resilient material will spring apart a sufiicient distance so that the pairs of beads 17, 19 and 18, 20 will p`sitively eng-age or clamp the plate P.
The parallel sides 15 and 16 are each provided with a series of holes 21 oppositely disposed in the Sections 15 and 16 to receive the pins or screws 22, whereby the plate P may be held in place in any one of a number of adjusted positions vertically. Screws are preferable as find that they hold better than plain pins. Each pin 22 may be provided with a head 23 whereby it mav be readily withdrawn from the oppositely disposed holes 21 and the corresponding hole in the plate P so that the plate 1) ma),7 be quickly adjusted in any one of a number of Vertical positions.
v iach elongated card receiving portion of the standard is supported by a substantially triangular foot made of a single length of fiat comparatively narrow metal similar to the material composing the upper part of the standard.
The strip comprising the foot of the standard is bent as at 21 and 25 to provide portions which engage the supporting surface and between the parts 24 and 25 the strip is bent upwardly on a curve at 26. The rests 24 and 25 are spaced apart a considerable distance so as to provide a greater base for the standard and for the holder, and each rest has a hole 241 extending tl'ierethrough so that the standards may be screwed or nailed to the fioor or other support, if desired. The Curved part 26 between the two rests 2-1 and 25 serves to press apart the upwardly and inwardly eX- tending limbs 27 and 28 of the foot. The limbs 27 and 28 terminate in the parallel parts 29 and 80 which receive between them the parts 13 and 111 of the upper portion of the standard. The parts 13 and 14 lie face to face and are provided with a series of holes 31 to receive the bolts 32 which pass through a corresponding series of holes 83 in the parallel parts 29 and 80 of the foot portion. It is thus possible to adjust the upper portion of the standard Vertically upon its supporting base and also toV adjust the plate P relatively to the upper portion of the standard. The standards may not only be used for plates of varying heights, but also of varying widths. The
Vdisplay sheets S. In the illustraton, the
display sheets are indeXed so that any sheet may be readlly accessible. Each ring is provided With a s'wivel joint 35 by means of which it may be opened to remove or insert a sheet.
The lower edge of the plate I) has a pair of spaced hoolrs II thereon by means of which sheets or other' matter may be suspended from the lower edge of the plate.
The use of 'the device will be apparent from the foregoing description. It will be seen that it is capable of adjustment in a number of vertical positions and that the device is inexpensive to manufacture.
While `I have illustrated. the preferred form of my invention, I do not wish to be limited to the eXact details of the form shown and described as it is evident that the construction may be varied without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. In a display device of the class described, the combination of a pair of stand-l ards, each comprising a single strip bent upon itself intermediate its ends to provide substantially parallel spaced parts, the bend joining said parts constituting the upper end of the standard, a plate having its ends extending between the spaced parts Vof the standards, and means for holding said plate in place between said spaced parts.
2. In a display device of the class described, a standard Acomprising a length of metal bent on itself intermediate its ends so as to provide substantially parallel upright members, the bend joining said parallel members constituting the upper end of the standard, bends at corresponding points in said parallel uprights, the portions above said bends to the upper end of the standard being spaced apart to receive the end of a plate between them.
3. In a display device of the class described, a standard comprising a length of metal bent on itself intermediate its ends providing parallel upright members, the bend of said length of metal comprising the upper end of the standard, and a base for said standard formed by parts which eXtend at an angle to said parallel members and having their lower fioor engaging ends wider apart than their upper ends so as to provide a substantial supporting base for the standard. .i I
a. In a display device of the class described, a standard comprisingltwo spaced members, having oppositely disposed beads thereon extending into the space between said members, said beads being capable of clamping a plate between them, and a base having angularly eXtending leg members,
parallel members between said spaced members and the leo` members and connecting the latter to the leg members, said parallelmembers being secured together.
5. In a display device of the class described, the combination of a plate, means for supporting on Vsaid plate a plurality of display sheets, a standard located at each end of the plate, each standard comprising spaced parallel upright parts joined at their upper ends and adapted to receive one end of the plate between them, means for holding said plate in place between said'parallel upright parts, and parts at the lower ends of said upright parts extending away therefrom and from each other to provide supporting means for the standard.
6. In a display device of the class described, a standard comprising a strip of metal bent on itself intermediate its ends, the bend of said strip constituting the upper edge of the standard, and a base comprising a strip of metal bent intermediate its ends, the ends of the two strips being secured together. w
7. In a display device of the class described, the combination of a plate, article holding means thereon, and a pair of standards for supporting said plate, each standard comprising a strip of metal bent on itself intermediate its ends to provide spaced parallel members, projections on said members capable of gripping the face of the plate, said members having holes registering with holes in said plate, pins fitting said holes to sustain the plate, and a base comprising a strip of metal bent intermediate its ends and having inclined supporting legs, the ends of the strips being adjustably secured together, whereby the plate on the standards may be adjusted vertically.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CELIA BERNSTEIN.
