UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HERMAN L. WITTSTEIN, OIE NEW HAVEN, AND DANIEL II. MORGAN, OF SOUTHPORT, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNORS TO THE ATLAS MFG. C0., F NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT,
A CORPORATION.
SHELF.
Application filed August 20, 1923. Serial No. 658,263.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, HERMAN L. Tirrs'rErN, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, and DANIEL H. MORGAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Southport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in. Shelves;
and we do hereby declare the following,
when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the characters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear,
and exact description of the saine, and which l5 said drawings constitute part of this application, and represent in- F ig. 1 a broken face view of a combined shelf and brackets therefor, constructed in accordance with our invention.
Fig. 2 an underside view of the same.
Fig. 3 an end view of the same.V
Fig. el a rear view of the shelf detached.
Fig. 5 a perspective view of one of the brackets detached.
Fig. 6 a perspective view of one of the spring-clips detached.
This invention relates to improvement in shelves, particularly adapted for metal shelves for use in otlices, garages, kitchens, bathrooms and other places where it is desirable to have a shelf which may be removed from its supporting-brackets for convenience in cleaning, the object being to provide a simple and inexpensive means for interlocking a shelf with its supporting-brackets, and the invention consists in the construction as will be hereinafter described and particularly recited in the claim.
In carrying out our invention, we employ two shelf-brackets 10, preferably formed from sheet-metal, and having their upper arms 11 provided, near their outer ends, with perforations 12 for the purpose as will hereinafter appear. A shelf 13 is preferably formed from sheet-metal with a front flange 14, rear flanges 15 and end flanges 16. Se-
rations After the brackets have been secured in` place, the shelf is slipped over them, and the springs passed beneath the upper arms of the brackets, and the pins project upward through the perforations 12, thus securely mounting the shelf upon the brackets and insuch a way that it cannot move either laterally or horizontally, and when it is desired to remove the shelf, it is only necessary to press the clips downward to withdraw the studs from engagement with the brackets.
A special advantage of this construction is that the shelf is firmly secured to the brackets without the use of rivets, or other obstructions, which would necessarily extend through the shelf and through the face of the shelf. Vith this construction, therefore, the shelf may be given any desired nish without regard to the means for securing it in place.
Vire claim:
A shelf formed with downwardly-turned end-flanges and with a downwardly-turned flange at its rear edge formed with notches, and spring-clipsl secured to said end flanges and projecting inward therefrom in a plane parallel with the under-face of the shelf and parallel with the front edge thereof.
In testimony whereof, we have signed this specification.
HERMAN L. VVITTSTEIN. DANIEL H. MORGAN.
