T kw bm aada tom- H a a l Be it known that L BENEnlCjE wlLLEf rT,
V a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayto i e o l yh Mo o y and Stateoi Ohio, have inventednew and useful Improvements j in Display-Backs, of
a which the following is a specification,
' in such a manner that their contents be prominently. displayed and conveniently will readily receive boxes, baskets and other" receptacles, and display them in rows, a .F rhex mp h box o as e s of on wmavbe di pos d d e y This invention relates; to new and useful impr v men in d splay wok a v The principal object of my invention is to provide, for usein stores and other places,
,asimple, durable andadjustable rack for holding boxes, baskets and other receptacles handled. The rack is so constructed that it various, levels.

adjusting he rack, boxes may be disposed in step arrangement fora; more prominent display of'their con- I c nstruc io arr n m n n assemblyof thei d'it rent parts of the irack conduce to its strength well as makeit adjustable lapsible for shipment, The preferred form of embodiment of my I invention ls illustrated in the accompanying drawings, of which Figure1 is a perspective view of my improved rack ready for use. 1 And Fig, 2 is aside view of one of the adjustablesupports iorthe receptacle Referring to, the
The standards are preferably disposed and durability, as for use and colinalinement with each other, one'of each pair being connected between its respective angle 1rons 2 2 ,by a screw 6, near the front roller 4, wlnle 1ts companion standard is connected between said angle irons by'a screw 7, near the middle portion of its respective runner 1." "(See'FigQQJ "The screws 6 and 7 permit the standards 5 5 tobe moved about them'aspivots in either direction fora purposeto-be hereinafter described;
"To hold them in parallelism at, all times,
there are pivotally connected to the stand ards 5 at intervals throughout their length, by means of screws 8, cross pieces 9 which are so arranged as to'be in parallel relation with each other andtherunners 1 during any inclined position of the standardsb These'cross pieces 9 are preferably employed in pairs, so that one cross piece will be on each side of its respective standard as shown in Fig. 1; i
The cross pieces 9' terminate inoutwa'rdly extending right-angled ends, to which are manriected' in front, by means of screw bolts 1 7 tothe rear right-angled ends of the cross pieces Qthere are secured, by means of screw bolts 12, horizontal supporting members 13 that are slightly longer than the front horizontal supporting members 11.
Each end of the horizontal supporting members 11 extends a sufiicient distance be yond the standards 5 5, for connection to the outer middleportion of a bowedsupporting band 14, the ends ofeach band terminating in angle portions means of screw bolts 15, to the rear horizontal supporting members 13. Each of the bands 14: is preferably semi-circular as shown in Fig. 1, and formswith its respective portion of the supporting member 13 a support for a basket, box or other receptacle that may be placed upon it with a view to displaying its contents and at the same time permitting the latter to be conveniently handled. V
i Similarly connected to the supportmg members 11 and 13, between the two pairs of standards 5 5, are bowedmembersfor' bands 16, each of the'latter' being formed similarly to the bowed bands 14. There are preferably sixot these bowed bands 16 behorizontal supporting members 11, while which are connected, by
of angle irons 2 2, by means of a screw bolt 17, a pair of inclined bracing members 18 18. The upper ends of the latter straddle their respective standard 5, and are provided with a row of apertures 19, each of which is adapted to receive a screw bolt 20 that passes through a hole in said standard. WVhen it is deslred to vary the angle of inclination of the standards 5 5, to place the bowed receptacle holders at a higher or a lower level, said standards are turned about their pivots 6 and 7 until the desired inclination is secured. A screw bolt 20 is then passed through each rear standard 5 from an aperture 19 into a corresponding aperture on the other side of said standard, after which a nut 21 is applied to the outer end of the screw bolts and tightened thereon to hold the standards in their adjusted position. To assist in bracing the rack, a bar 22 is preferably connected between each rear end of the said runners 1 1.
My improved rack is so constructed that it may be shipped to the user in sections, which he may readily assemble by reason of the numerous screws and bolts that are employed as mediums for uniting the different arts.
p In operation, baskets containing vegetables, fruit or other articles may be readily placed in the bowed holders 14; and 16, or boxes or other receptacles containing like products may be placed on top of them for display. Ifthe space will not permit a step arrangement of the rows of receptacles, the standards 5 5 may be positioned so that they will be perpendicular to the runners 1 1, so as to place the various receptacles in ap proximate vertical alinement, in which position their contents may be displayed and.
conveniently handled.
However, to more prominently display the contents of thereceptacles, where the space will permit, the standards 5 5 may be inclined and held in such positions by the apertured bracing members 18 18, to display the baskets, boxes or other receptacles in step or seat arrangement: that is, with the front portions of the receptacles in one row, in advance of the front portions of the receptacles in the row above.'
By means of the rollers 41, the rack may be readily moved from one location to another. The angle irons, bracing and other parts impart to it great strength, while its open framework is conducive to sanitation.
Having described my invention, I claim:
1. In a display rack, a pair of horizontal base members, a pair of parallel standards pivotally secured at their lower ends to each base member, oppositely-disposed cross pieces secured to the sides of said. parallel standards at intervals throughout their length, a horizontal supporting member secured to the front and rear ends of each two oppositely-disposed cross pieces, and receptacle holders connected between each two oppositelydisposed horizontal supporting members.
2. In a display rack, a pair of horizontal base members, a pair of parallel standards pivotally secured at their lower ends to each base member, oppositely disposed cross pieces secured to the sides of said parallel standards at intervals throughout their length, a horizontal supporting member secured to the front and rear ends of each twooppositely-disposed cross-pieces, and bowed elements connected between each two oppo sitely-disposed horizontal supporting mem-' bers, to receive basketsor other receptacles to prominently display their contents. r
3. In a display rack,a pair of horizontal base members, each base member consisting of two angleirons so connected that two correspondmg sides thereof face each other a short of two angle-irons so connected that two corresponding sides thereof face eachother a short distance apart, a roller at each end of said base members, a pair of parallel standards secured at their lower ends between the facing sides of each pair of angleirons, a pairof cross pieces straddling the side portions of each pair of standardsat intervals throughout their length,the cross pieces of one pair ofstandards bein rectly opposite those of the other standards, said cross pieces having rightangled ends, a horizontal supporting member secured to the front and rear right-angled ends of each row of cross pieces, and bowed receptacle holders connected inalinement between the horizontal supporting distance apart, a pair of parallel standards pivotally secured at their lower di palr ofmembers belonging to each row of cross holding frame-work carried by said cross through each rear standard, to adjustably pieces, and inclined bracing members Whose support the receptacle -holding framework. lower ends are pivotally connected to the In testimony whereof I have hereunto set 10 rear portions of said base members, and my hand this 22 day of January, 1918.
