DISPLAY CABINET.
Applicationfiled March 2, 1922. Serial No. 541,648.
T 0 all whom it may. concern:
. Be it known that I, GEORGE PrvAR, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at 255 Fort Washington Avenue, borough of Manhattan, in the county of New' York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Display Cabinets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cabinets and has special reference to display cabinets such as are used in mercantile establishments to display ribbons and the like.
One important object of the invention is to 'improve the general construction of de.
vices of this character.
A second important object of the invention is to provide an improved form of display cabinet wherein all the articles to be stored in the cabinet will he supported on the door of the cabinet so that opening of such door withdraws all of said articles at once.
A third important object of the invention is to provide a novel arrangement on a cabinet door for holding displayed articles.
lVith the above and other objects in View, the invention consists in general of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and specifically claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, like characters of reference indicate like parts in the several views, and
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cabinet constructed'in accordance with the inven-' tion, certain parts of the casing being broken away to show the interior.
Figure 2 is a transverse section through such a cabinet showing the door in its closed" position.
Figure 3 is a front view of the cabinet, part of the casing being broken away.
Figure 4i is a section like that shown in Figure 2 but with the door open and the articles withdrawn.
In the embodiment of theinvention herein illustrated there is shown a cabinet having a door at the rear. It will be understood, however, that this door may be placed anywhere desired, as on the front or on a side.
In any case it is preferred to provide a metallic frame 10 which is fixed on a metallic bottom 11. In the sides and front of this frame are secured glass plates 12 and the top is closed by an inclined plate 13 also of glass. The plate 13 is inclined so as to prevent articles beingcplaced on top of the case and thereby obstructing the view of the interior.
Hinged to the rear edge of the bottom is the lower edge of a back door 14 which is also preferable of metal and which is prov1ded on its inner face with a flange 15 eX- tending on all four edges of the door adjacent the periphery. Also the inner face of the door is provided with a plurality of shelves 16 which, when the door is closed lie in horizontal positions. This door is also provided with the usual knob or grip 17 but it has been found that there is no necessity for employing a latch since the weight of the shelves and the goods thereon will hold the door closed by gravity whenever it is moved manually to its closed position. EX- tending through the shelves centrally thereof is a rod 18 which is perpendicular to the shelves and extends above the top shelf to a point adjacent the top of the casing. At this point it is bent to extend rearwardly and is secured to the door adjacent the top flange 15. ()n the rod above the upper shelf is a sliding bar or keeper 19 which is preferably made of a single, length of wire bent to" provide a single convolution surrounding the rod 18. Between the keeper and the top shelf and between shelves are arranged bolts of ribbon 20 or other like goods to be displayed.
In operation it will be seen that the various ribbons will have the bolt ends clearly visible through the front of the case so that the desired ribbon may be selected by the purchaser, the door can then be opened as in Figure 4 and the selected ribbon removed without disturbing any of the others.
' There has thus been provided a simple and eliicient device of the kind described and for the purposes specified.
It is obvious that minor changes may be made in the form and construction of the invention without departing from the material principles thereof. It is not therefore desired to confine the invention to the exact form herein shown and described but it is wished to include all such as properly come within the scope claimed.
' Having thus described the inventiomwhat door, a dividing and bracing rod extending through the shelves and having one end zittached to said door, and a keeper slidetlolyv mounted on said rod.
2. In a, show case, a bottom, a door hav ing its lower edge hinged to the rear edge ingperpendioularly from the inner face of the door a rod extending through the cen- ,ters of the shelves and having its upper end,
extending toward and secured 'tothe door, and a, keeper'slidably mounted on the rod above one of said shelves;
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature.
' GEORGE PIVARV
