FRAME FOR ADVERTISING CARDS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 1, 1922.
Application filed October 12, 1921. Serial No. 507,230.
To all whom t may concern.:
` .residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, has invented certain new and useful Improvements 1n Frames for Advertising Cards, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a frame for holding advertising cards adapted to be placed in the ends of trolley or other passenger cars, more particularly between the end doors and sides of the cars, and is an nnprovement on my. prior patent No. 1882646.
The object of the invention is to produce a frame in which one or a plurality of cards may be conveniently inserted and having a slidable top attached to the main section of the frame adapted to be opened to permit the insertion o-f a card without the necessity of bending or twisting same and thereafter to be closed to securely hold it in position.
A further object of the invention is to provide means for vpreventing the cards from buckling or bulging outwardly after they have been positioned in the frame.
Other and further objects of the invention will be apparent as the description is proceeded with.
Referring to the drawing wherein a preferred embodiment of my invention is illusn trated:
Figure 1 is a face view of my invention;
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 2-2 Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a section on the line 3 3 Figure. 1; and
Figure 4 is a section on the line 4-4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5, is a section on the line 5-5 of Figure 1.
Referring more specifically to the drawings, 5 denotes preferably metallic board or frame having its side and bottom edges G inwardly turned or rolled to form a beading or border and also to provide side grooves 7 for slidably receiving the end edges of the advertising cards (not shown). The opening 8 in the top of the frame through which the cards may be readily inserted without bending, is normally closed by means of the slidable closure member 9 having straight side edges 10 adapted to slide in the upper portions of the grooves 7 the top edge 11 of the closure member 9 being rolled inwardly to simulate the appearance of the side and bottom edges of the frame 5. It is not necessary to completely remove the closure member to enable the user to insert the cards, but merely to slide the former outwardly yor upwardly a slight distance as side grooves 7 are suiiiciently wide to accommodate both closure member and cards. This sliding movement of the closure member is limited by means of lugs 12, preferably punched from the closure member, operating in slots 13 formed in the upper portion of the frame 5. In o-rder to completely remove the closure member, or when inserting the same in place, the lugs 12 must of course be forced out of the slots 13.
One or more cross pieces 14 preferably of sheet metal doubled in the direction of their length and bent to form top and bottom side grooves 15, have their end edges 16 slidably mounted in the side grooves 7 of the frame 5. The cross pieces serve as partitions between the different cards, which are adapted to be slidably carried on the face of the frame or board 5 with their top and bottom edges iirmly'seated in the respective grooves 15. Any number of cross pieces or partitions may be used according to the number of cards to be employed, or they may be eliminated where a single card is displayed. These partitions may be easily removed by slightly raising the closure member 9 and sliding the former out through end of grooves 7.
Any suitable means may be employed to attach the frame or board 5 to the car, such as screws or the like (not shown) adapted to pass through openings 16.
It has been found in actual practice where one or more of the cross pieces 14 are dispensed with and a correspondingly large advertising card (not shown) is inserted, that vthe card will sometimes bulge or buckle outwardly at the middle. To obviate thisIprovide the metallic board or frame 5 with an insert 2O of wood or other suitable material adapted to retain the point of a headed pin 21 when the pin is pressed through the advertising card into the insert 20. As will be seen from an inspection of Figure 5, the insert is retained in position by passing the same through vertically disposed spaced par allel slits 22, it being understood that edges or marginal side walls 23 of these slits are bent outwardly and that the portion 24 of the metallic hoard or baolr 5 is bent or pressed rearwardly' to a slight degree to facilitate insertion et the wooden member or insert 20.
While l have shown but one. insert 20, it is obvious that Whe-re more than one advertising card is used in the traine, an insert for each advertising card may be employed.
Having thus described my invention:`
What l claim is: y
l. A. street ear advertising frame comprising a rectangular metallic sheet provided with means 'for receiving and retaining the edges of an, advertising eard, and means for securing the intermediate portion ot said advertising card tothe said sheet vvhereloyk bulging of said advertising card Will be premarginal edgesof an advertising card, said.
sheet formed with spaced slits intermediate the sides thereof7 a Wooden insert in said slits7 and means Yfor securing the intermediate portion of said advertisingf'card to said Wooden insert.
ln testimony whereof l afliX my signature.
