SHELF BRACKET.
To zZZ whom t may concern: n Be it known that I, JOHN T. HUFF, a citi- Y zen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and use'ul Shelt` Bracket, of which the ollowingis a specification.
T his invention aims to provide novel means whereby a shelf bracket maybe adjusted vertically and be held securely in adjusted positions on asupport.
AIt is within the province ot` the disclosure to improve generally and to enhance the utility or" devices of that type Vto which the invention appertains. f
V'Vith the above and other objects in View,
which lwill appear as the description pro-V ceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details ot construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that, within the scope of what is claimed, changes in the precise embodiment of the invention shown can be made withoutdepartingrom,
the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings Figure 1 shows in side elevation, a device Vconstructed in accordance with lthe invention; Figure 2 is front elevation wherein parts are broken away; Figure 3 is a rear elevation; Figure 4 is a section on the line 4 4 of Figure 3; Figure 5 is a section on the Y line 5-5 of Figure 3; Figure 6 is atrae'- mental perspectiveA showing a part of thel support; and Figure 7 is a fragmental per-v spective showing a part of the angle inember.
ln carrying'out the invention there is provided a support 1 in the form of a strip having apertures 2 for the reception of securing elements, whereby the support may be mounted in place on a wall or the likei Any desired number of openings 3 are formed in the support 1, the openings being tapered at their lower ends. as shown at 4. Keepers 5 outstand from the Jforward surface of Athe support '1 andext'end across the tapered portions 4 of the openingsj. Y
An angle bracket 6 is provided, the same including an outstanding arm 7 and a de pending arm 8, the arms 7 and 8 being located approximately at right angles to eachJ Application filed June 23, 1921. Serial No. 479,827;v
other. Loops 9 arel struckiiom'they arms 7 and 8 `adjacent to the ends thereof, the loops 9k being adapted to receive the 'ends 10 of a brace 11. Openings 12 are vformed in the arm`8 of the bracketV G and rearwardly olfset tongues 14 depend from the arm 8 at theV upper ends of the openings l2. The tongues 14 are tapered'to cooperate with the tapered portions 4 ofV the openings 3. 1; In Vpractical operation, `the arm 8 is' placed against the support lltlie tongues 14 vbeing.
disposedin the openings 3 Vof the supportrl. Then, the bracket 6 iscarried downwardly', the tongues' 6V engagingY behind the keepers 5. Since the openings 3 are tapered at their lowerends, and since ,the tongues 14 are taf pered to correspond with the shape of the portions 4 of the openings 3, the wedg'ing action will result, whereby the angle bracket will be held securely on the support 1.
