DISPLAY-STAND.
Specification 01. Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 13, 1918.
Application filed August 16, 1917. Serial No. 186,584 I ,j i
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALEXANDER L. HEN- DERSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cambrid e, in the county of Middlesex and State 0 Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improve ments in Display-Stands; and I do declare the followin to be a full, clear, and exact description 0 the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to, make and use the same.
This invention relates generally to store furniture, and more particularly to certain new and useful improvements in display stands to be used primarily for supporting articles such as shoes.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a display stand, the parts of which are connected together in such a manner that the stand may be folded into a flat compact manner when. not in use.
Another object of the invention is to provide a display stand consisting of a supporting member, a base member, and a leg member, a portion of the leg member extending through the supportingmember for holding the article to be displayed in proper position upon the supporting member.
A further object of the inventiorris to provide a device of this character which will be extremely simple, strong, durable and inexpensive in construction, one which will be efficient and reliable in operation, and well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed.
With these and numerous other objects'in View, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, and the combination and arrangement of parts. as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of the application, and in which similar reference characters are used to designate like parts throughout the several views:
Figure 1 is a sideelevation of a device constructed in accordance with'this invention, showing it set up and supporting a shoe;
Fig. 2 is a front view of the device in set up position; and,
Fig. 3 is a side or edge view of the device in folded position.
Referring more particularly to the drawing the numeral 1 designates a base member which consists of a flat rectangular plate of cardboard, thin wood or the like. Pivoted to one end of the supporting plate 1 by means of a strip of cloth or other flexible material 2 is a leg member 3. This leg mem- A ber 3is constructed of the same material as the base plate 1 is constructed and has its free end reduced in width from both edges thereof to form a tongue 4.
Pivoted or hinged to the other end of the base plate 1 by means of a strip of cloth or flexible material 5 is the supporting member 6 of the device. This-member 6' comprises a comparatively long rectangular plate of cardboard or other suitable material and is slightly wider than the base plate 1 and leg member 3. At a point a short distance from its rear end it is provided with a centrally arranged transversely extending slot 7, the purpose of which will be hereinafter described.
In Fig. 3 of the drawings the device is shown in folded position, and from this it will be seen that the leg member 3and base member 1 are then disposed in alinement with each other and flat up against the supporting plate 6. The combined lengths of the base plate and leg member equals substantially the length of the supporting plate.
To set the device up, the supporting plate 6 is raised at its rear end and the leg memher is swung so as to be disposed in a plane substantially at right angles to the base plate. The supporting plate is then lowered so that the ton e 4 extends through the slot 7 and by this it will be held in its raised or inclined position. The tongue 4 projects a sufiicient distance above the upper side of the plate 6 so as to form a means or projection for holding the article to be supported in lace. In the present instance the article to e supported is shown as being a shoe A, the inner or forward edge of the heelof the shoe being hooked or engaged with the tongue 4 so as to prevent the shoe from slipping downwardly on the inclined supporting plate 6;
From the foreging description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction, use and operation of the device will be readily understood without a more extended explanation.
As various changes in form, proportion plate movably secured to one end of said ase plate and bein inclined uwardly therehaving its upper end formed with a tongue that s snugly in said slot and extends above said article supportin plate so as to prevent the slipping down 0 an article supported on the latter, sald normally vertical plate being provided with means ad acent to said tongue for supportin said article-su porting late in its norma ly inclined posi- 15.
tion, sai tongue being immovable laterally I and longitudinally of said slot and being movable out of said slot so as to allow the article support to be collapsed.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set 20 my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ALEXANDER L. HENDERSON.
