To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, EDWARD L. HAMIL'roN, a citizen of the United States, residing at McCrory, in the county of Woodrufi and State of Arkansas, have invented certain new and useful- Improvements in Display- Racks,0f which the following is a specification.
fThi's inventionqrelate's to storage and display racks and more particularly tola rack for'storing and displaying window shades,
one of the primary" objects of the invention being to provide-a rack by which the various colors and styles of shades may be displayed to the best advantage and in which rack a those on display, may be stored;
Another object of the invent on is-to pro- 7 vide a rack whichwill occupy "minimum space considering the number or window shades which may "be stored therein and which rack will be provided-With means whereby the various-colors'and styles of shades maybe supported'inprecisely the manner in which they would be hung in a window frame so that a customer maygain an excellent idea of the appearance which any shade willhave when hung.
Another ob ect of the invention is to provide a rack for the purpose stated which will be extremely Simple in its construction and which, if desired, may be shipped in knocked down form and readily set up by the dealer purchasingrthe same.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the rack embodying the presentinven tion;
Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view therethrough;
Fig. 8 is a horizontal sectional view on the line-33 of Fig. 2; V
Fig. 4 is a detail side elevation of one side of the rack.
The rack comprises essentially two side members, indicated in general by the numeral 1, which members are relatively braced in upright parallel relation to each other by means to. be presently explained.- Each of the side members 1 of the rack comprises side stiles 2, an intermediate stile 3, and cross rails 4:, the rails' being secured at their ends'to the outer sides of the stiles 2 at suitable intervals and extending in a vertical series throughout the height of the said stiles 1', and the intermediate 'rail 3 beingi's'ecured tothe mid-portions of the rails "e a-tits; points of intersection with the said her; 1- order that the' -ra'clrmay baconi i rails; Eachsidemember oftherack'further veniently moved about from place to 'place, I
rollers G are preferably arrangedat theen'dsf 2 of the drawings") I Crossed braces *7 brace 8 are secured together midway be orthe sills 5,-as clearly'shown in Eigsrl and tweentheir ends in intersectingrelation, as indicated by the numeral 9, as for exampleb a bolt, and the endsof the crossed rails- 7 abi t against the inWardly'presented; faces of the sills i 5 and are secured thereto as i-m the rack is-tofbe' shippedin; knocked down the sills 5 and preferably to the upper faces I 1 and an intermediate dicated by the: numeraljl Q, preferably, if i I of the said sills. In this manner the lower 'ends of the side members 1 of the rack'are secured together and relativelyfbraced, and in order-to similarly connect their upper ends, a cross piece 11 is secured at its/ends to the upperv sides of the uppermost rails 4,
preferably by'fastening elements of the type 7 before mentioned, if the rack is'to be adapted to be knocked down. In orderto fur; I
ther bra'ce; the side members of the rack,
tween the stiles 2 of the respective side membersfof the rack and intersect the respective i rails 4, each side member or the ck is ai vided to provide a enumber of rectangular" frame sections 14 within opposite onesof which, in the set up condition of the rack,
may be arranged and supported the ends of rolled and, if desired, wrapped shades and their. rollers, indicated by the numeral15.
In order that sample shades and their rollers may be supported for display purposes upon the rack, sets of shade roller brackets 16 are secured upon the ends of the rails 4 of the two side members and in these brackets may be disposed the pintles of the rollers for the sample shades to be displayed in the manner clearly shown in Figs. 1, 3
and 4 of the drawings, so that these sample shades may be drawn down and raised as though hung in a window frame in, the ordinary manner. Ordinarily the sample shades willbe displayed by drawing each down so that its lower edge portion will. lie
in advance or overlap the roller of the shade next beneath it,as shown in Fig. 4, so that while all of the shades will be displayed to the best advantage, the shades will also serve to conceal the rolled up and wrapped shades 15 which are arranged within the frame sections 14 as above pointed out. By this arrangement, a sample shade will behung by itsroller in oneset of pintles and drawn down to the proper length to overlap at its loweredge the roller next beneath it and in the frame sections immediately rearwardly of the exposed length of this shade may be stored a number of duplicate shades so that Whenaselection is made by a customer after inspecting the sample shades displayed, H
'taining similar rolled shades.
the required number. of duplicate shades may be readily removed from the rack by the salesman thus greatly facilitating not only the'display of the various colors and styles of shades, but also expediting the filling of the order.
Having thus described the invention, What is claimed as new is:
A window shadedisplay rack consisting of spaced side frames each composed of side and intermediate stiles and vertically spaced cross rails secured at their ends and centers to the respective stiles, sills connecting the partments in which rolled shades may be stored, and shade holders secured to and projecting from the side frames at the upper outer corners of the compartments delined therein whereby sample shades may be hung and displayed in such manner as to cover the compartments respectively con Intestimony whereof I aflix my si nature. 12.
