PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH TAUSSIG, O'F CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
CARD HOLDER.
Application filed March 9, 1923. Serial No. 623,852.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J osnru TAUSSIG, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Chicago, Cook County, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Card Holders, of which the following is declared to be a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to card holders of that type which are adapted to be attached to shelves, table tops, desks orother wooden supports, for the purpose of holding and displaying cards, signs or the like. The principal object of this invention is to provide a card holder in the form of a spring clip adapted to embrace a shelf or the like from side to side. and formed with barbs or prongs that bite into the shelf and effectively prevent the holder from accidentally falling off the shelf, or from being removed therefrom except when considerable force is applied, or by the use of suitable tools. The invention consists in a card or sign holder having a spring clip like portion formed with arms adapted to straddle the shelf and formed with shelf engaging barbs. It further consists in the several novel features hereinafter fully set forth and claimed.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a card or sign holder embodying a simple. form of the present invention, showing the same applied to a shelf: Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the holder and Fig. 3 is a vertical cross section thereof, when applied to a shelf.
Referring to said drawing, the reference character 4 designates a wooden shelf or other support, upon which the card or sign holder 5 is secured. The holder comprises a spring clip like portion 6 having a front member 7 and two arms 8. 9 that embrace the shelf. At the sides of the part 7, and spaced therefrom, are two tongues 10, 10 that are formed as a part of the arm 0 and are bent upward to stand in front of the shelf and spaced slightly therefrom to leave spaces in which to insert the card or sign. The upper ends of the tongues 10'are bent outward slightly to facilitate the insertion of a card between the tongues and the part 7 of the clip.
Normallythe arms 8, 9 converge slightly and grip the shelf between them, and both arms, 8, 9 are struck up with suitable dies, to form barbs 11, 12 that extend at acute angles to thearms, in lines running towards the front member 7 of the clip.
The spring pressure of the clip on a wooden shelf, causes the barbs to bite into the wood, and any force exerted to pull or push the holder oil the shelf, is resisted by the barbs, which sink deeper into the shelf, because of the angle at which they are set with respect to the arms 8, 9.
To remove the holder, the arms must be pried away from the shelf. so as to wholly withdraw the barbs from engagement. therewith. This may be done with a thin article, such as a knife blade, piece of sheet tin or the like.
. The holder may be attached to a shelf by merely slipping the arms 8, 9 over the sides of the shelf, and pushing the device back until the front piece 7 strikes the shelf. The card or sign is slipped into the space between the tongues 10 and front piece 7. It
is neat in appearance, simple and compara tively inexpensive in construction and can not be dislodged without applying considerable force.
More or less variation of the exact details of construction is possible without departing from the spirit of this invention: I desire, therefore, not to limit myself to the exact form of the construction shown and de scribed, but intend. in thefollowing claim, to point out ,all of the invention disclosed herein. p
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
A card holder, comprising a clip formed of a single piece of spring metal. and having a front piece and upper and lower shelf gripping arms bent back therefrom, said arms normally converging slightly toward each other. and one of said arms being wider than the front piece and having card holding tongues bent up there from and disposed at the ends of the front piece. the upper shelf gripping arm being formed with a centrally disposed inwardly pointing barb and the lower shelf gripping arm being formed with two inwardly pointing barbs located behind said card holding tongues.
