Description
T. O. BROOKS CARD RACK Filed Dec. 22, 1922 INVENTOR a Braolra BY A TTORNEY Patented Dec. 16, 1924.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS 0. BROOKS, F DALLAS, TEXAS, ASSIGNOR TO B /G SANDWICH SHOPS, INC., OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, A CORPORATION OF MISSOURI.
CARD RACK.
Application filed December 22, 1922.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS O. BROOKS,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Dallas, in the county of Dallas and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Card Racks; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and
exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains tomake and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to a card rack and it is particularly adapted for use in holding order cards or slips for the use of chefs.
Obviously it is desirable toprepare food orders in the order in which they are received and unless some means is provided for systematically arranging the order cards or slips, confusion arises which causes misunderstandings between the patrons and the proprietors of the restaurants.
My invention contemplates the provision of means whereby the orders must be posted in the order of their receipt and whereby liability of confusion in filling them in their proper order will be eliminated.
The invention consists of certain novel parts and combinations of parts, which will be referred to hereinafter, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a card rack constructed in accordance with my invention, the cards or slips being shown attached thereto.
Fig. 2 is a cross sectional View through the 40 card rack, one of the cards being shown in edge elevation, and
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view through the card-supporting belt.
The invention is shown as consisting of a 45 bracket 1 having two horizontally disposed, diverging arms 2 and 3, to which is secured a horizontal, elongated bar 4, at the ends of which are supported two pulleys 5 and 6, both of them idlers. The pulleys are sup- Serial No. 608,459.
ported by the bolts 7 and 8, which are suspended from the bar 4 by the nuts 9 and 10, the pulleys being rotatable upon the bolts and resting upon the heads thereof, there being s acing sleeves 11 and 12 for spacing the pul eye 5 and 6 away from the bar 4.
Passing around the spaced pulleys is a card-supporting belt 13, having a plurality of card or slip-receiving clips 14 thereon. Each clip is shown as comprising a bar 15, having its upper end bent backward and inwardly to form a spring tongue 16 to receive one of the cards or slips 17 The bar 15 may be fastened to the belt by a staple 18. The waiter or attendant will place the first order card in the clip nearest to the left hand side of the card rack, the second order in the next succeeding one toward the right, etc. The chef will always remove the card nearest the left hand end and all subsequent orders will be fed to him on the belt from the right hand side. That is, when the first card, say the one designated 17', is taken off, he will advance the belt the width of one card so that 17 becomes the nearest card and so on. Therefore, the orders can be taken care of in their proper sequence.
The device is simple to construct, and it can be readily suspended from the wall of a room in full View of the chef or operator so that no confusion is likely to arise.
l/Vhat I claim and desire to secure by Letters-Patent is:
1. A card rack comprising spaced suspended pulleysmounted on vertical axes, an endless belt passing around the pulleys with its fiat sides vertical and card engaging means carried by the belt.
2. A card rack comprising a bracket and a horizontal bar carried by the bracket, pul leys suspended from the ends of the bar having vertical axes, a horizontal belt passing around the pulleys with the fiat sides of the belt vertical and card engaging means carried by the belt.
3. A card rack comprising a bracket, 2. horizontal bar carried by the bracket, depending journals carried by the ends of the bar, pulleys mounted on the journals, an
endless belt on the pulleys having its flat sides in vertical planes and card engaging clips in spaced relation carried by the belt.
&. A card rack comprising abracket having outwardly diverging, horizontal arms, a horizontal bar carried by the arms of the bracket, Vertical bo-ltscarried by the ends of the bar, pulleys rotatable on the bolts, and a card-carrying belt passing around the pulleys.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
THOMAS O. BROQKS.
