BAG RACK.
Application filed March 22, 1924. Serial No. 701,054.
To aZZ "10700 1 70, it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARLOW M. Smneson,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Fort Morgan, in the county of Mmga n and 5 State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bag 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 appentai-n-s :to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings. and to the characters oil ref erence marked thereon, which fem a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in bag racks.
In stores of various kinds and more especially in grocery stores. goods are, as a general thing, delivered in paper bags. This makes it necessary to have a large number of paper bags of various sizes constantly on hand. deem the paper bags are placed in piles on a shelf or desk, they often get badly mixed, with the result that a large amount of time is lost in finding the proper sized bag. l
It is the object of this invention to produce a bag rack which shall be adapted to support within convenient reach a large 30 number of: paper bags of various sizes.
It is a further object of this invention to produce a bag rack that can be conveniently employed for advertising purposes and which can be cheaply made.
In order better and more clearly to describe my invention I shall have reference to the accompanying drawing in which the preferred form of my invention is shown, andin which:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of my improved bag rack;
Fig. 2 is a view similar to that of Fig. 1, but with parts broken away to better show the construction and with the central portion partly removed;
Fig. 3 is a section taken on Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is a view showing a fragmentary portion of the rackwith parts broken away to show how the supporting hooks are put into place and removed; and
Fig. 5 is a section taken on line 5 5, Fig. 1.
My improved bag rack consists of a steel frame having two parallel end members 1 line 33.
and 2 and sides 3 and 4E. The side 4 preferably makes right angles with the ends while the lower side 4 is inclined in the manner shown. The frame members are of U- shaped cross-section and are adapted to embrace the edges of the center 5 which may be made of heavy cardboard such as that used in building construction. The end :l is formed by two parallel flat members 6 (Fig.
4), which are spaced apart a sufficient dis;
her '3 in the manner-shown in Fig. 2 and held in place by the cardboard center 5. Cords or chains may be fastened to the eyelets 8 and to some suitable support. For the purpose of supporting the bags, I have pro vided a plurality of hangers comprising at straight central portion 10. One end 11 being bent at substantially right angles and formed into a hook 12 which lies substan tially in the same plane as the central portion 10. The other end 13 is bent substantially 90 degrees with respect to the central portion and terminates in an eyelet 14. The side 4; is provided with spaced openings 15. each of which is adapted to receive adjacent ends 11 and The hangers are inserted and removed in the manner plainly shown in 4. When the center 5 is in place, the hangers are held against the bottom of the U-shaped frame member 4c in the manner clearly apparent.
The paper bags 16 are perforated by a pin 17 one endof which is straight and sharp and the other end of which is provided with an eyelet 18 which engages the hook 12. The bags are arranged so that the largest ones are near the end 2 and the smallest ones near the end 1 so that the bottom of the bags are as nearly as possible on a level. The ends of the hooks 12 extend upwardly and are spaced from the bottom of the member 4: a distance suliicient only to permit the insertion and removal of the pin 17 and for this reason it is difficult to remove a bunch of envelopes and their pin accidentally.
The central portion 5 can have its sides provided with suitable printed advertisements.
From the above it will be apparent that I have produced a simple and serviceable rack that can be cheaply constructed, readily assembled and which will permit the center to be conveniently removed and replaced.
Having now described my invention what I claim as new is:
l. A bag rack comprising a framework having one end and two sides formed from U-shaped metal members, the other end being formed by two spaced parallel flat metal members connected to the other end of the sides, a flat center member of sub stantially the same size and shape as the frame, said center being adapted to be removed and inserted through the space between the spaced parallel end members, and a U-shaped metal member adapted to embrace the parallel end members to prevent the removal of the center member.
2. A bag rack comprising a framework having one end and two sides formed from U-shaped metal members, the other end being formed by two spaced parallel flat metal members connected to the other end of the sides, a fiat center member of substantially the same size and shape as the frame, said center being adapted to be removed and inserted through the space between the spaced parallel end members, a U-shaped metal member adapted to embrace the parallel end members to prevent the removal of the center member, and hangers secured to the lower side member.
3. A bag rack comprising a framework formed from metal members having a substantially U-shaped cross-section adapted to hold a display card, one side member of said frame being provided with openings for the reception of hangers, said hangers comprising a wire having a central straight portion adapted to lie within the channel of one frame member and to be held in place by the card, the ends of the hanger being bent at an angle to the central portion and project through the openings, one end of each hanger being formed into a hook and the other being formed into an eyelet.
4. A bag rack comprising a framework formed from metal members having a substantially U-shaped cross-section adapted to hold a display card, one side member of said frame being provided with openings for the reception of hangers, said hangers comprising a wire having a central straight portion adapted to lie within the channel of one frame member and to be held in place by the card, the ends of the hanger being bent at an angle to the central portion and project through the openings, one end of each hanger being formed into a hook and the other being formed into an eyelet, the hook being in a plane passing through the straight portion and the eyelet in a plane perpendicular to the straight portion.
In testimony whereof I allix my signature.
HARLOW M. SIMPSON.
