This invention relates to display apparatus 7 and more particularly to display apparatus for rugs or the like for stores and the-primary object of .the invention is to provide an improvedmachine for displaying a num ber of rugs, one after the other and thus obviate the necessity of spreading the rugs on the floor of the store before a customer, which litters up the floor and soils the rugs.
Another object of the invention is to provide a conveyer belt carrying a plurality of rugs or the like, which is adapted to be supported upon a pair of. spaced reels, which are rotated by any suitable means, such as a motor or the like.
A further object of the invention is to provide a pair of protecting casings or housings for inclosing the spaced reels, so as to provide a covering for the rugs and thus prevent the same from becoming easily soiled.
A still further object of the invention is to provide an improved winding means positioncd in the casing for receiving the conveyer belt, so as to provide a relatively large surface for receiving the conveyer belt and thus allowing a number of rugs to be wound on the winding means in each casing. 4
A still further object of the invention is to provide a display apparatus for rugs or the like of the above character, which is durable and eflicient in use, one that is Simple and easy to construct and one that can be placed upon the market at a reasonable price.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction, arrangement and formation of parts, as will he hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the improved display apparatus, showing a rug in position on the conveyer belt.

Fig. 4: is a transverse section taken on the line H of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a side elevation of a modified form of the device, showing parts of the protecting casing in section, and
Fig. 6 is a transverse sectional view through one of the protecting casings showing the modified form of the device.
Referring to the drawings in detail, wherein similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 1 generally inclicates the improved display apparatus, which includes the substantially rectangular base plate 2 having spaced housings 3 mounted Patented Nov. 4, 1919.
on its upper surface at each end thereof Each housing 3 includes the side walls 4, rear and front walls 5 and 6 respectively and the top wall 7. Secured to the base plate by suitable fastening elements 9 and positioned in each housing are a pair of spaced standards 8 which rotatably support a winding drum orrecl 10. The drums 10 have stub-shafts 11 secured thereto which are journal ed in the upper ends of the standards. One of the stub-shafts 11, at one end of each drum protrudes beyond the supporting standard 8, as at 12, and thesestub shafts have keyed to their outer endspullcy wheels 13. An electric reversible motor 14 is mounted on the base plate 2 in one of the casings 3'and has its drive shaft 15 provided with a relatively small gear 16 which meshes with a relatively large gear 17 keyed to a shaft 18 supported in a bearing 19. The outer end of the shaft 18 is provided with a pair of relatively small'pulley wheels 20 and 21 respectively and a belt 22 is trained around the small pulley 21 and around the relatively large pulley 13 carried by the drum A drive belt 23 is trained around the 'relatively small pulley 20 and the relatively large pulley wheel 13 carried by the drum 10 in the other housing free-end secured to each winding drum as at 26 and the web can be Wound around the drums as many times as desired and when the drums are rotated. the web will be rotated therewith. of any suitable material such as canvas or open netting. The conveyer belt oi web. 25 extends through the cut out portions 24:
formed in the frontwalls 6 and maths belt passes from one casing to the other the same is adapted to display any articles which are secured thereto. As shown, the. apparatus is -articularly adapted for displayingrugs and the sameare adapted to be. secured to the web or conveyer belt by any suitable means such as clips or pins and the rugs 27 are fastened in such a manner tliatthey can be readily moved from the Web when so desired. In each housing 3 andadJacent the front wall 6] are a pair of spaced bearings 28 which are secured to the base plate 'wind'ingldrums. Each of the'winding drums 2 as at 29. and these bearings'rotatably support a' pair of vertically positioned guide rollers 30' between which the web 25 passes and these rollers serve as a guiding means for winding the web and rugs 27 on the 10 at each end thereof is provided With a guide flange 31 to prevent the web and-rugs from running ofi'v of the wind ng drums.v
Each' of the housings'i is provided with openings 32 for the, drive belt 23 and these openings fornia guide means for the belt. A suitable switclr33 is secured to one of the casings-3 adjacent the motor 14,.and con nects with the motor by suitable wires 'and' provides means whereby the motor can be started, Stopped or reversed.
Each of the housings 3 isreadily removable-from the base plate 2 so that the winding drums can be readily repaired when necessary. The casings 3 may be hinged atthe lower-edge of their rear walls I -5 to the base plate 2 if sodesired'so that the same can be swung back on the base plate when it is desired to get intothe casing,
Infoperation of the improved device a series of rugs. 27, strips of carpet, or-any other articles, that are to be displayed, are secured on the web 25 by any suitable means and the switch is then operated so as to cause the motor 14 to rotate and operate thewinding drunis'lO, which will wind the Web from one drum to the other and thus as the web passes from one casingto the other casing the articles carried by tluweb will be displayed. .lVheirit is desired to rewind the web from one drum to the other the switch is operated so as to reverse the motor and thus reverse the direction. of the winding drums 1).. I v
in {land (5 is illustrated modified form of the rug displaying device and in these figures the windin means for receivii g' the conveyer belt '20 which carries the Theweb can be made numeral 37 and thesame rotatably receive a pair of spaced rollers or drums 38, which I extend in direct vertical alinement with each other;- And these rollers or drums have guide flanges 39 formed ontheir side edges which prevent the rugs and conveyer belt from riding off of the same. The rollers 38 ai'e'provided with the shafts 40, which extend beyond the-rollers and are journaled in the standards37. One end of each shaft is extended beyond one of the standards as at 41, for a purpose which will hereinafter more fully appear. Extending over the "upper and lower rollers 38 are endless belts .42 and the conveyor 25, which carries the rugs 27 on its upper surface, is wound around the endless belt 42 and has its free ends secured thereto. The convgec belt 25 may be'wound around the'endless belt as many times as is considered necessary andthe endless .belt42 provides a relatively large surface. for the conveyer belts 2-5 to w nd upon. The extended ends 41 ofthe shafts 40, which extend beyond the standard 2-57 receive sprocket wheels 43, which are keyed to'the shafts and they receive a sprocket cliain 4st which "is trained around the,
sprocket wheels and which rotates the rollers 38 simultaneously. Th lower shaft 41 of one of the rollers in the casing inwhich the motor 10 is positioned has keyed to its terminal which projects beyond the standard the 'relativelylarge pulley wheel 45-which has trained thei'eover the belt 22, which extends to the pulley 21 keyed on the shaft 18. The extended portion 41 of the shaft 40 of the lower roller positioned'in the casing opposite from the one in which is positioned the motor 15, has keyed thereto the pulley wheel 46 around which is trained the driving. -belt 23 which extends from theother pulley '20 keyed on the shaft 18? From. the foregoing itcan be seen that each of the winding; means is driven simul taneously andeach provides, a relatively large surface for l'GCGll/lfi'f the Winding con veyer drum i The modified form of the invention shown in Fig. 5 is exactly the same as in the other figures: with the exception of the winding means. I
In practice, I havefound that the. form of my invention, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and referred to in the above description, as the preferred. embodiments, is the most efficient and practical; yet real izing the conditions ooncurrent With the pair of standards 'in direct vertical aline- 15 adoption of my deviee Will necessarily vary,
I desire to emphasize the fact that various minor changes in details of construction, proportion and arrangement of parts may be resorted to, wh en required, Without sacrificing any of the advantages of my invention as set forth.
What'is claimed In a display apparatus for rugs or the like, a base plate, a housingsecured to the base plate at each end thereof, 'a-pair of spaced standards secured in each'housing,
a pair of spaced rollers journaledjin each ment Witheaoh other, an endless belt trained around each pair of rollers, a Web connecting the endless belt trained around one of the pairs of rollers with the endless belt trained around the other pair of rollers and means for rotating said rollers.
