A. C. JACKSON DISPLAY TRAY Filed July 5, 1922 Patented Nov. 3, 1925.
PATENT OFFICE.
ALBERT G. JACKSON, OF DAYTON, O'HIO.
DISPLAY TRAY.
Application filed July 3,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT C. JACKSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Display Trays, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide one or more display trays that may be readily assembled into an attractive unit for holding circulars and other advertising matter that may be easily withdrawn by an interested person. It is alsoanother object of my invention to provide means on the rear tray for receiving a card or other object that prominently calls attention to the advertising matter in the trays in front. The partitions are so arranged that they may be easily removed from, or set apart a desired distance in, each tray to accommodate advertising circulars of different sizes.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my display tray unit. Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view taken through the same. Figure 3 is a top plan view of one of the trays, showing a removable partition piece. Figure 4 is a partial end view of one of the trays. And Figure 5 is an end view of one of the partition pieces.
Throughout the specification and drawings, similar reference characters denote corresponding parts.
Referring to the accompanying drawings for a detailed description of the form of embodiment of my invention illustrated therein, the numeral 1 designates a tray constructed of suitable metal, although it may be made of other suitable material. Provided on each side of the rear end wall of the tray, which is higher than its front wall, is a. downwardly and outwardly turned spring piece 2, one of which is shown in Figure 2 and in Figure 4. These spring pieces 2, 2 are adapted to be hooked over the front wall of a tray 3, similar to the tray 1, to form the double unit shown in Figures 1 and 2, although any number of trays may be so united.
The upper inner corner of each one of the spring pieces 2 is notched as shown in Figpieces 10.
1922. Serial No. 572,592.
ure 4, to readily and firmly receive a card 4 or other object which calls prominently to the attention of an onlooker, advertising matter such as the circular 5 within the tray 1. (See Figure 1.)
The trays 1 and 3 are divided by the following means into compartments of varying sizes to receive circularsor other publications of different dimensions. Each tray has an upwardly inclined bottom 6 in .which there are two rows of holes 7 adapted to receive pins 8, 8 that project downwardly from the bottom flanges 9, 9 of a partition piece 10 preferably made of metal. By withdrawing these pins from the holes 7, a partition piece 10 may be entirely removed from a tray, or it may be firmly secured in any desired position therein by forcing its pins 8, 8 into the holes 7 in the tray bottom at the place where it is desired to locate a partition. It is thus possible to divide a tray into a desired number of receiving-compartments by inserting these partitions in the tray bottom. In Figure 1 the tray 3 is divided into two long compartments by one partition piece 10, while the tray 1 is divided into five compartments by four partition These partition pieces may be entirely removed or readily rearranged to accommodate articles of varying sizes.
I do not wish to be limited to the details of construction and arrangement herein shown and described, and any changes or modifications may be made therein within the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having described my invention, I claim:
In a display unit, the combination with a tray having a rear wall which projects below the bottom of the tray to support the latter in an inclined position, of a second tray having a rear wall which projects below the bottom of the tray to support the latter in an inclined position, and downwardly turned spring pieces secured to the rear wall of the first tray near the bottom of the latter, to hook over the front wall of the second tray for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 30th day of June, 1922.
ALBERT o. JACKSON.
