LABEL HOLDER.

Patented June 1 2, 1917.
INVENTOR.
LINCOLN HALL, 0F ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
LABEL-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June is, n.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, LINCOLN HALL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Label-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates'to a label holder and. particularly pertains to a device for holding gummed labels and cards.
This invention possesses several features in common with my co-pending application entitled label holders, filed June 12. 1916, and bearing the Serial Number 103,267, such features being shown and claimed in said oo-pending application.
It is an object of this invention to provide a simple device for filing gummed labels and holding them in an upright position at the forward edge of their filing cabinet.
Another object is to provide means whereby the holder may be readily filled with labels and when so filled will suitably secure them in a resilient manner and at the same time insure that they lie flat against each other and do not become curled.
Another object is to provide means for securing the labels within their holder, such means allowing the labels to be withdrawn singly and without binding or disturbing the remaining labels.
Another object is to provide a label holder of simple construction and of few parts.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the label holder showing it partly filled with labels and in its operative position.
Fig. 2 is a view in plan of the label holderand illustrates it in the same condition as that shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a view in vertical section as seen on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and illustrates the correlation existing between the label retaining members and the labels.
Fig. 1 is a view in section and elevation as seen on the line 44 of Fig. 2 and particularly illustrates the intermeshing arrangement of the resilient label fingers.
Fig. 5 is a plan view of the blank from which the base of the holder is formed.
Fig. 6 is a view in front elevation show ing the base member as folded and ready for the reception of the various label holding elements.
Referring to the drawings more particu larly, 10 indicates a metallic blank from which the base portion of the device is made, said blank being bent to form a vertically disposed back portion 11, a horizontal plate 12, and uprights 13 and 14h Formed adjacent each of the uprights is a forwardly projecting tang 15 and 16 which is used to secure the base to a suitable shelf or support. A recess 17 is cut out of the base plate 12 and is provided to allow ready access to the foremost labels within the holder. The vertical back portion 11. is formed with a series of vertically disposed openings which accon'imodate the pivot rods 18 of swinging label retaining arms 19 and 20. The retaining arms are adapted to extend forwardly over the plate 12 and to terminate a slight distance beyond the first label within the holder.
As a means for resiliently holding the pack of labels 21 against the forward uprights 13 and 1 1, a pair of spring-messed radially mounted label binding members 22 and 23 are pivotally mounted upon parallel vertical posts 24 and 25 which extend perpendicular to the base plate. A horizontally disposed coil spring 26 is connected at its opposite ends within cars 27 and 28 formed integral with cylindrical tube members 29 and 30 of the binding members 22 and 23 and acts to swing the intermeshing fingers 31 and 32 of the binding members outwardly and against the pack of labels. While I have here shown the binding members 22 and 23 as being formed of a single piece of material, it is evident that various modifications may be made without interfering with the operation of the device.
As a means for readily mounting the label holder within a filing cabinet or upon a shelf, I have provided the forwardly extending tangs 15 and 16 which engage a binding ledge upon the shelf and are held thereagainst by a leaf spring 33 which bears against the wall in the rear of the shelf or against a suitable back member.
When the holder is assembled with its binding members 22 and 23 upon their pivotal uprights and with the horizontally swinging retaining arms 19 and 20 properly positioned within their bearings, the file may be filled and this is done by placing a pack of labels upon the base plate 12 and with their printed faces against the upright members 13 and 14:. The binding members 22 and 23 are swung parallel to each other and are released when the desired number of labels is in place. When the members are released their arcuate tips 3% will bear against the rear of the label pack and thus hold the labels in a resilient manner against the vertical uprights 18 and 14.. The retaining arms 19 and 20 are now swung into position over the pack of labels and pressed downwardly within their bearings so that the ends of their arms bear upon the upper face of the label pack. heir the holder is filled in this manner it is ready for use and labels may be drawn from it by successively removing the foremost label, the remaining labels being held both against vertical movement and lateral movement while the label is being withdrawn.
It will thus be seen that I have here provided a holder -for labels which e'li'ectively secures the labels in an upright position therein and allows single labels to be drawn therefrom without molesting the remainder of the pack.
I claim:
1. A label holder, comprising a base plate, label positioning uprights, a pair of yieldable binding members adapted to force the labels against said uprights, and a pair of horizontally-swinging vertically adjustable label retaining arms adapted to secure the labels against vertical movement while the foremost label is being withdrawn from the holder.
2. A label holder, comprising a base plate, a pair of upturned label retaining tangs disposed along the front end of said base plate, a pair of horizontally swinging label binding members pivotally mounted at the rear end of said base plate, means whereby said binding members will be held resiliently and adjustably against the rear of a pack of labels, and means for insuring the pack or labels against vertical movement while a label is being withdrawn therefrom.
3. A label holder, comprising a base plate, a pair of oppositely disposed verti ally extending tangs at the forward end of said base plate, a vertically disposed back plate along the rear edge of the base plate, a pair of resiliently held binding members pivotally mounted at the rear of the base plate and adapted to intermesh with each other while their outer ends bear against a label pack, horizontally swingingvertically adjustable label retaining arms adapted to lie over the pack, whereby a single label may be removed from the pack without disturbing the remaining labels therein.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
LINCOLN HALL.
