WILLIAM T. CLINGER, OF OIL CITY, PENNSYLVANIA.
DISPLAY-STAND.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 1'7, 1916.
Application filed. October 13, 1914.. Serial N0. 866,516.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM T. GLINGER, a citizen of the United States, resident of Oil City, county of Venango, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Display Stands, of which the following is a specification, the principle of the invention being herein explained and the best mode in which I have contemplated applying that principle, so as to distinguish it from other inventions.
My invention relates to display stands and particularly to stands designed to display fruit such as apples and oranges.
The object of the invention is to provide a device which will permit of such display in an attractive and economical manner, a specific object being to invest such display with a maximum of effect and with the use of the minimum amount of fruit.
The said invention consists of means hereinafter fully described and particularly set forth in the claim.
The annexed drawing and the following description set forth in detail certain means embodying my invention, the disclosed means, however, constituting but one of various mechanical forms in which the principle of the invention may be applied.
In said annexed-drawing: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the central and removable portion of the display stand. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the lower or base portion of the stand. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the complete stand assembled, showing same partially covered with fruit.
The illustrated embodiment of my invention comprises a lower or base portion 1 which is made of sheet metal and is of the general form of an inverted rectangular pan. The central portion of this base is formed with a rectangular depressed portion 2 hav-- ing its sides parallel with the sides of the base itself. This depressed portion is designed to receive the central pyramid 3 which is also made of sheet metal and whose base is provided with a peripheral flange 4 whose outside dimensions are exactly equal to the inside dimensions of the depressed ortion 2 so that the latter may receive same and hold it against lateral displacement while resting loosely on the base, as will be readily understood. Both the base and the central and removable pyramid are made of thin sheet metal such as tin or sheet iron, whereby they may be made light in weight and of relatively cheap material. That part of the top of the base outside of the pyramld or central depressed portion 2 is provided with rows of perforations 5 each of which is provided with a downwardlyextending conical flange 6. These openings are made large enough to receive and securely hold the pieces of fruit such as an apple or orange against lateral displacement, the fiangebeing provided to prevent the edges of the perforations from injuring such fruit.
When the above described device is put into use, the central pyramid 3 is placed in the depressed portion 2, as shown in Fig. 3, and a tier of apples or oranges then placed upon the base, one such apple or orange in each perforation. Additional fruit is then piled in pyramidal form upon this lower t1er as indicated in said Fig. 3 until a complete pyramid is formed covering entirely the interior or removable pyramid 3, the latter forming a sort of false interior. The provision of this false interior does away with the necessity of using more fruit than is necessary to form a pyramid for display ent is:
In a display stand, the combination with a base provided with a plurality of perforations; of a pyramidal central portion supported by said base; that portion of said base extending laterally beyond said pyramid being provided with apertures located adjacent to the pyramid so that fruit in the apertures may support fruit on the pyramid. Signed by me, this 1st day of October, 1914. I
