KNOCKIWN SHOE RACK.
Appiication niecnecember 3o, 1924. serial no. 758,839.
To'aZZ 'whom lima/y concern.:
Be it knownlthat-I, EATON G. SHERMAN, a citizenot' the United States, andfresident ot Los Angeles, State of California,liave inventedv new and -usefulf Improvements in Knockdown Shoe Racks, of which the ollowing is a specification.
This@ invention relatesr to an article; of household utility and has for an object to provide' a` very si1nple,`yet substantial shoe rack which may beV stocked, stored and n r installation.
Numerous other objects.V and advantages will be made-manifest in the 'following specitication` ot" embodiments of apparatus of the invention illustrated in the accompanying drawing; it being understoodfthat modifications, variations and adaptationsY` may be resorted: towithin the spirit ofthe inven tion, and its scopeas here claimed.
Fig. lA isfa perspectivt'e.v ottone formot the rack' as installedi Y Fig. 2 isiV anend viegw o-fthe:` double hook rack trame; y
Fig. 3 is a section ot bracket having nstfruck loops-tor the double hooks ot' Fig. 2

Fig. 6 shows another form of reversable bracket from the frame. p
Fig. 7 is a perspective ot a rack having hinged end brackets.
Fig. 8 is a perspective of a hinging bracket.
Fig. 9 is a detail section showing setting up of a bracket.
Fig. l0 is a section showing the set bracket.
One of" the features' of my invention'comprisesan' elongated 'trame which, for econonly in kcost and low weight, l' make of an integral stamping ot' thin sheet metal; A
The trame has top and bottom rails 2 an indeterminate connecting means, as a stiening,i tie 3, which may be elongated to provide an ample name plate, andthe endsl of the rails are connected by end" stiles 4,al-l these' parts being coplanar.
AThe railsl are provided with repressed,
longitudinal embossm'e'nts 5 which giif'evdesired rigidityto the rails' andyet' leave flat front faces for the hollow'ot the sole oif the shoes'to rest solidly on when the breast oit p the heel of a shoe is hung down on the upper edge ot the top rail 2. y
The groovest'ormed bythcV enibossinents extend from end to end of the rails so that no unsightly enamel heaps will form' when the frame is enamelled.
` (neach end ot the rameis' a backturned iiange G from whose edge T extends a pair of similar iooks 8, of undirectionaldiposition.- The throat of each hook has, an`r inclinededge 9V so bindin 0' action results when f the hooks are applied respective brackets l0.
Bracketsv l() are right and lett hand and have front edges inclinedupwardly and; rearwardly toV hold' the .attached trame ina similar. tilt.` Along the Jfront edge ot each bracketM 1 0 are iii-struck loops ll. o'iiset just enough to receive4 thehooks 8 of the frame 2 2 which pass yon the inner side of the brackets. The edge i ot flange 6' engages the near edges el' loops 1l ofthe respective bracket and forms. a posi tioning. gage.
iilhen. the hooks 8 pass across'tho loops the parts itl-2 are then shifted so as to pass a part of each loop ll up into the ccnvergent throat of its hook. rThis causes the loop part engaged to bind in the throatand prevent undue play. K
The bracket lO not only supports the rail frame 2 but Valso forms a'supportfor heel-y less slippers and the like. To that end each bracket has a horn l2 out in its web. This horn is left nearly lat with the web when punched so that the brackets can nest or pack close in a carton. The'purchaser has but to press in on the horn after the bracket base 13 has been nailed or screwed to a primary support, as a door, panel or wall, at
itil) wear having heels can be hung by the placing of the heel against the top rail of the frame.
In so far as foot wear is concerned this utility takes them oli' the floor. 1
In Fig. the device includes a bracket 10a having forwardly convergent front-edges meeting on the medial line of the web and having rearwardly pointingV hooks the throats of which are designed to'snugly receive the inserted ends 4, of the rail frame, which are slotted at 16 to pass over and then pressed down into the hooks. To obtain rigidity, the flange is pressed under a retaining linger 10C punched laterally from the bracket web. i
The bracket 1()n also has a pair of reversely arranged horn parts 12a with heads aligned between' the side edges of the bracket. From this it will be seen that a bracket 10a is reversible and interchangeable or use at either end of the frame; the 'fastening base being disposed outwardly'so as to facilitate driving of its fastening screw or nail.
Fig. 6 discloses a form of bracket 10 having an inturned flange 17 with a tongue 17 inedially of its length to tightly interlock in a loop 1S struck back in the end stile 4 ol the rail frame. The advantage of this form oi structure is that the bracket may be made of the puncl'iings cutout of the sheet when making the frame openings between the rails, and at the same time permits the full Width ol a sheet of stock to be utilized for a maximum length of rail frame without any turned flanges on the ends, which cause a loss of length, when employed.
Figs. 7, 8, 9 and l0 show a form of' rack' having hinged end brackets.
Each bracket 2O has a front oblique edge 21 marginally deiected at 22 so that the` plate of the bracket can be swung out flat against end ilanges 6n which stand back at right angles to the frame 2-2.
The margin 22 is provided with slots 23 to receive lugs 24 on the ends of the trame. These lugs have half-round bends 25 allowing the hinge bars 22a to' roll from the flat position a of the bracket 20 to the upright f or set-up position b, Fig. 10. When a bracket isswung out to be set up the lug 24 is pressed outward and the edge 21 of the bracket passes over alatching tooth 26, Fig. 10, and is locked by the tooth.
The end stile 4 of the device as shown in Fig. 6 has on its inner edge an inturned stitiening flange 4a.' In this form ot the rack the frame is made from Jfull width sections cut from a strip of stock, and the brackets are made from the cuttings punched out when the frame is stamped from the stock. To further ensure interlock of the tongue and the frame of the device as shown in iig. 6, the tongue has a small hole, 17h into which will spring a smalldepressed bulge il) in the inner, marginal portion ot the stile Ll. This will effectively prevent the members from slipping apart while they are being fastened to a door or other primary support.
lWhat is claimed is:
1. A knock-down shoe rack including a reversible frontframe having end stiles, a pair of brackets, each bracket having an oblique front edge to support the stiles, and tongue and loop means whereby the reversible frame may be attached in either position of the frame to the bracket.
A knock-down shoe rack including a reversible front Viframe having upper and lower rails and end stiles having rearwardly embossed loops, and end brackets having` oblique front edges provided with laterally f bent prongs lying in the plane of the oblique edgesv to interlock in the loops and'hold the parts assembled until fixed to a primary support.
A knock-down shoe rack including a front frame having end stiles with depressed loops and depressed bulges contiguous to the loops, and end brackets having tongues to interlock in the loops and having holes to receive the said bulges whereby further interlock is obtained when the tongues are pressed under the bulges.
Enron e. SHERMAN.
