Application filed October 26,1921; Serial No. 510,605.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, WILBER J. SELBY and JAMES GILBERT, citizens of the United States,
residing at Eagle, in the county of Ada and State of Idaho, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rotary Sign Exhibitors, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accom- I panying drawings. r
This invention relates to rotary sign ex hibitors and has for an important object thereof the provisionof a device of this character which may bevery cheaply and readily,
manufactured. a 1
A further objectoftheinvention is toprovide a device of this character which, al-
though extremely light in construction, is

Figure 9 is a similar view of thecorre sponding portion of the supporting arm;
and
a plan view of one of the drawings,the numeral 10 indicates a base as a whole, comprising corner members 11 formed of angle iron. Thebase 1s rectanguwhich may be lar in form and has the corner members thereof connected at the top and at or adjacent thebottom, by cross braces 12 to which are secured side plates 13.
The corner members 11 which are diag onally opposed have secured thereto the ends of members 14, whichmembers are connected centrally to form an X-shaped brace forming a support for a vertical standard 16 secured to the brace 14:, as at 15. This standard eX- tends through a top member 17 secured to the upper cross members 12 of the base and projects thereabove for a considerable distance. Rotatably mounted upon the vertical standard 16 and having its lower end abutting the top member 17 ofthe base, is a sleeve 18. The numeral 19 indicates sup porting arms corresponding in number to the number of sides withiwhich the rotatable element R of the sign is provided. Each arm .19 is provided upon its outer end with a down-bent portion20. Theseiarms are preferably formed of'channel iron, the downbent portions thereof being bent so that the sides 21 thereof are arranged at an angle to one another, corresponding to theangle of the polygon forming the rotatable member R. The inner ends of each of the arms are likewise provided with down-bent portions 22, each having at the end thereof, remote from the arm, a hook 23. The down-bent portions 22 are adapted to receive the clamp 2%, the hook 23 engaging beneath the lower edge thereof and preventing vertical displacement of the arm 19. A split clamp of the type shown in Figure 10 is preferably employed so that the arms may be readily in sleeve 18 in predetermined spaced relation. T 0 support the arms 19 I provide diagonal brace arms 25 secured to the arms 19 intermediate their ends, as at 26, and extending diagonally downwardly therefrom. The diagonal brace arms are provided upon their lower ends with angularportions 27 abutting the sleeve 18 and terminating in hooked portions 28, the portions 27 being held against the sleeve 18 by a clamp 24 similar to the clamp employed for holding the ends of the arms 19 thereto.
From-the foregoing it is believed to be obviousthat Wehave constructed a rotary sign exhibitor which may be readily and cheaply constructed from sheet metal, and which may be very-cheaply manufactured Without sacrificing the strength and durability of the device. It will furthermore be obvious that the construction as hereinbefore set forth is capable of some change and modification Without departing from the spirit of our-invention, and 'We accordingly do not limit ourselves to the specific structure hereinbefore set forth except as hereinafter claimed.
What We claim is:
1. In a rotary sign exhibitor, a base, a sul stantially vertical support carried by the base, a sleeve rotatably mounted on said support, supporting arms secured to said sleeve and radiating therefrom. and provided at their extremities with angular portions,
brace arms corresponding in number and ar-v rangement to said supporting arms, eachhaving one end secured. to one of said supportlng arms and the other end secured to said sleeve, and signs disposed intermediate and having their ends secured to the angular portions at the extremitiesof adjacent supporting arms.
2. In a rotary sign exhibitor, a rotatably mounted sleeve, arms radiating from said sleeve andhaving at the ends thereof angular portions, the angular portions at the inner ends of said arms abutting said sleeve, a collar surrounding said angular portions and securing the same to the said sleeve, signs arranged between and having their ends socured to the downbent ends of the adjacent outer extremities of the arms, and braces secured to said arms intermediate the ends therof and to said sleeve.
3. A device of the cl'mracter described comprising an upstanding cylindrical support, a sleeve rotatable upon the support, arms radiating from the sleeve and having their inner ends formed with downward extensionsengaging thereagainst and terminating at their lower ends in hooks, a contractile split ring encircling said downward extensions and retained by said hooks, the outer ends of said arms carrying exhibition plates. inclined braces having their upper ends connected'with the intermediate portions of the arms and having. their lower ends formed with downward extensions engaging against the sleeve and terminatingin hooi a. and a contractile split band encircling said last named extensions and retained by said hooks.
In testimony whereof we hereunto aiiix our signatures.
