DISPLAY CASE.
Application filed February 4, 1924. Serial No. 690,551.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, EDGAR ALLAN BUNDY and WALTER BABE GALVIN, cltizens of the United States, and residents of Modesto, county of Stanislaus, State of California, have invented a new and useful Dis- .the goods on display in such a manner. that the displayed sample serves as an index for a receptacle containing the goods. A further object of the invention is toprovide transparent means around the case preventing unauthorized persons from withdrawing goods from the same. Further objects and advantages of our device will appear as the specification proceeds The preferred form of our invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Figure '1 shows a side view of our vcase, Figure 2 a top plan view of the same with a portion shown in cross section, Figure 3 a perspective detail view of a single element of our device, Figure 4 a vertical section through the same taken along line IV-IV of Figure 2, and Figure 5 an enlarged vertical section taken through a single unit of our device. While we have shown only the preferred form of the invention it should be understood that various changes or modifications maybe made within the scope of the claims hereto attached without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Our device is preferably mounted on the circular base from the center of which rises the post (2) surrounded by the sleeve (3) which latter rides on a ball bearing 1).
' The sleeve has a plurality of flanged rings (6) adjustably secured thereon by means of set'screws (7) and the flanges-of these rings support platforms (8). in spaced relation. The platforms are preferably polygonal in form and from their respective corners rise standards (9) which serve as spacing members between the peripheral portions of the platforms which latter are arranged symmetrically so that the standards (9) of the dif ferent sections are longitudinally aligned. Filling the spaces between the standards and tapering toward the center are thereceptacles (11) formed preferably so that theirv outer or exposed faces (12) are flush with the outlines of the polygons while their\ sides (13) taper toward the center in such manner that adjacent sides of adjacent re-' ceptacles are substantially parallel. The receptacles are formed with open tops and with sloping top faces as shown at (14) to allow each receptacle to be tilted forward on a pivot (16) secured in two neighboring standards (9) without contacting the next succeeding platform. The outer face may be grooved as shown in Figure 3, and the articles to be exhibited such as the pencils (17) may be secured in the grooves in any suitable manner as by the clasps (18). The rece. tacle serves to hold a supply of the goo s, samples of which are displayed on the outer face. To prevent the receptacles from tilting too far and from dumping the goods, we provide suitable means for stopping the tilting motion in the stop engaging with the rear Wall (20) when the desired limit of the tilting motion has been reached.
The whole case is preferably surrounded by a transparent housing ,(21), which when the case is of large dimensions, may "consist of a plurality of posts (22) grooved as shown at (23) to receive the glass plates (24;) One of the latter plates is preferably independently supported in a door frame (26) which latter is hinged to one of the posts as shown'at (27) and may be manipulated by means of the handle (28). A top plate (29) resting on the posts (22) covers the whole arrangement. I
For smaller cases, as for pens and pencils, the transparent housing may be a glass cylinder with either flat, or dome top, and pro-,
show case. The same idea, however, may be embodied in larger floor cases for the display and storage of more bulky goods.
The manner of using the device should be clearly understood from the foregoing description. The whole display case may probably not exceed two feet in height and can be conveniently placed on a counter.-
The receptacles are filled with goods it is desired to. sell and sample goods are secured to the outer faces of the receptacles which latter are peripherally grouped around the center post (2). The glass housing protects the case against unauthorized interference. When it is desired to withdraw goods the door (26) may be opened, the whole case turned until the receptacle containing the desired goods is brought opposite the door opening whereupon the particular receptacle may be tilted outwardly and the goods withdrawn. The stop (19) prewiously described prevents the receptacle from tilting too far and a slight inward push on the part of the operator will return the receptacle to its normal position whereupon the glass door (26) may again be closed.
We claim: I
1. A rotary display case comprising a revolving platform and a plurality of sectorial receptacles normally resting thereon so as to be grouped symmetrically around the axis of rotation, the receptacles being hinged on their outer supporting edges to allow the same to be tilted outwardly for giving access to their interior.
. 2. A rotary display case comprising a revolving platform and a plurality of sectorial receptacles normally resting thereon -so as to be grouped symmetrically around the axis of rotation andto present end faces ada ted to have sample goods secured thereto or display purposes, the receptacles being hinged on their outer supporting edges to allow the same to be tilted outwardly for givin access to their interior.
, 3. rotary display case comprising a revolving platform and a plurality of sectorial receptacles normally resting thereon hinged on their outer supporting edges to allow the same to be tilted outwardly for giving access to their interior, and a transparent housing surrounding the show case having a door therein allowing a receptacle brought opposite the same to be projected through the opening thereof when tilted outwardly. i
4. A display case comprising a-base, a vertical post revolvably supported thereon having platforms secured thereon in spaced relation and a plurality of sectorial receptacles grouped around the post on each platform presenting peripherally arranged outer faces adapted to have samples of goods stored in the receptacles secure-d thereto for display purposes, the receptacles being hinged on their outer supporting edges to allow the same to be tilted outwardly for giving access to their interior.
5. A display case comprising a base, a vertical post revolvably supported thereon having platforms secured thereon in spaced relation and a plurality of sectorial receptacles grouped around the post on each platform presenting peripherally arranged outer faces adapted to have samples of goods stored in the receptacles secured thereto for display purposes, the receptacles being hinged on their outer supporting edges to allow the same to be tilted outwardly for giving access to their interior and a transparent housing surrounding the case.
