Application filed April 15,
To aZZww/m, it may conce/m:
Be it known that I, THOMAS CHARLES Howie, a citizen of the United States, residing at Louisville, in the county of Jeierson and State of Kentucky, have yinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Dis play Devices, of which the'tollowing is a specication. y v I My invention relates tov display devices and particularly to a display device in which the articles placed therein are in full view but from which they are removable only after a movement of a portion oi the device.V
It is an object ol' the invention to provide an improved form or' a display device ot the type stated. An object of the invention is to provide adisplay device having one or more supports upon which articles maybe arranged for display but froinwhich they cannot be removed Auntilthe support has been moved from its rnormal position. `More speciiicallyan object of the invention is to provide a `'display device which may be supportedat a convenient height above the floor level and which includes one or more article supports which are normally held in raised position and from which the articles cannot be removed until the support has ybeen movedinto a lower position. j
` These and other objects'oi1 my invention will be apparent from oneembodiment of 4my invention which is described in the following speciiication and illustrated in the accompanying drawings:
In the drawingsl Fig. l is a perspective view of a display device embodying my invention; i
Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation through the device; Y
Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section on line 3 3 of'Fig. 2, and y Y Fig. 4- is a longitudinalsection on line lf-4: of Fig. 2.
I ln the drawings, the cabinet withinwhich the various article ysupports are carried is designated by the numeral l, and vcomprises Vin' effect a b'ottoniless boi; which may be supported at any desired elevation above the floor level, as by means yof suspending straps or wires 2; The cabinet l may comprise one or more-units as desired, and for each. of said units a pair of vertical guides 3, 3 are provided. Upon a rectangular frame 4 which isv slidably arranged in the-guides` 3, 3 a plurality of article sup'ports 5 are the cabinet. 'raised positionthe baskets 5 cannot be tilted vabout the pivots 7 but .when a 'frame is low- 4ered-to position a basket below the cabinet,

mounted. The article supports may take ly adapted for the display of books, maga zines lor the like, baskets formed of spaced wires constitute the article supports. The baskets 5 are preferably pivotally 'supported in theframe 4l, at points located above the centerof gravity of the Arespective baskets so tlratv the baskets willbe normally retained in their upright'position. The frames-4l are approximately of the same length aslthe cabinet l .and arenormally maintained at the upper limit of their range of movement byv yielding means, such as coil springs 8 which vare mounted on the frames 4 and have their vtree 'ends connected tothe top of the cabinet.
yTo permit inspection'oi' the articles con tained inthe `baskets :5, portions of the walls of the cabinet lare cut away to' provide openings v9 inline with the various sets of baskets carried by thetram'es 4, and these openings may be provided at one side, or on lopposite sides of the cabinet.'v To prevent work 10 extends below'the top of thelowest v basket 5 when the frames @are in raised position, and below the grille work the openings :9' in the walls of the cabinet are unobstructed. To insert or remove articles from a basketV 5 the frame 4E is lowered until' the top'ot the particular basketisaccesl sible through the lower or unobstructed portion of theopening in the cabinetwall.
The baskets 5 may be of any desired length or width to provide for the display of articles of various sizes, but the distance vbetween theopposite 'faces of the baskets is but slightly less than the distance betweenfthe inner faces of the front and rear walls of When the frames 4 are in the basket may be readily tilted. This tilting of Vthe basketsis of advantage when a large article or When several articles are to ybe inserted in' enrees@veelirene.V abasketet one time. e e
For convenience in lowering the :trames/34 to renderthe baskets accessible the bottom off'geaeh framois proviledfvvith a'handle 1L.
