Description

A. W. VOEGTLY. Improvement in Cloth-Racks. No. 131 235.- Patented Sep.10,1872.
UNITED STATES PATE T QFFIO'E.
ALEXANDER W. VOEGTLY, OF HANNIBAL, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT EN CLOTH-RACKS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 131,235, dated September 10, 1872.
Specification describing anew and Improved Cloth-Rack, invented by ALEXANDER W.
' VOEGTLY, of Hannibal, in the county of Monroe and State of Ohio.
Figure l is a sectional side elevation, and Fig. 2 a top View, of my improved cloth-rack.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to a new rack, for use in stores or warehouses, for the support of rolls or pieces of cloth for display. The invention consists in the use of a standing frame, having horizontal arms, which form the supports for the cloth.
In the drawing, A is the supporting-frame of the rack. It consists of bed-pieces a a and of four vertical posts, I) I), which are steadied by suitable braces, (1 cl. B B are horizontal arms or bars aifixed to the posts at equal distances apart, and arranged in pairs, which extend through to opposite sides of the frame. Every pair of bars B supports a transverse connecting-bar, e, at each end. The alternate pairs of horizontal bars B are at right angles to each other, as is clearly shown in Fig. 2, thus forming racks on the four sides of the frame for the support of the cloth. The frame is to be placed on a counter or table, and will, when loaded with goods, not occupy more room than the goods would require if placed upon the counter without the stand.
The goods are to be placed upon the extended arms 13, with laps hanging down far enough to make a good display, and as the pieces get smaller they will not show to any less advantage than a full stock. The frame is so well balanced as to allow the removal of goods from either side without upsetting the stand.
The inconvenience which is now experienced by merchants in taking goods fromthe lower parts of large piles is overcome by this invention, as any piece of goods can be taken off any part of the stand without disturbing the balance, and as easily replaced. The frame n'1ay,if desired, be made high enough to stand on the floor, and provided with casters so it may be rolled from one place to another.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The cloth-rack, composed of the frame A, horizontal arms B, and connecting-bars e, as
set forth.
