a M. B. SHELDON DISPLAY RACK N \n EV Filed Nov. 18', 1925 0 INVENTOR TNE: s; W g (71W Ma)? ,3. 5 BY ATTORNEYS mug. 10, 122%.
U NITED S f l DISPLAY RACK.
vApplication filed. November 18, 1925. Serial No. 69,889.
The display rack of the, present invention is capable of a wide and. varied range of utility, and in fact it .may be used whereevcr it is desired to conspicuously display n'ierchal'idise of any kind.
It .is peculiarly adapted for the advan tageous display. of cooked meats in butcher shops or similar establishments, and is adapted to be folded .or telescoped so that it will occupy a minimum amount of space when not .used for display purposes.
An object of the invention is .to. provide a displays-ash of simple practical construction, which will be rugged and durable in use, which iswell suited for th-e,req1,1ire ments of. the average merchant, and which may be .manufactured with comparative economy.
vV-ith the above noted and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations-and arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth. and pointed out. in the claims. The-invention may bemore fully understood from the following description in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein Fig. 1 isa perspective view ofa display rack embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a vertical section through Fig. 1 showing baskets supported on the rack.
Briefly. the invention includes a plurality of tray supporting frames of difi'erent heights, telescopically connect-ed to each other 'and adapted to be fully projected for the purpose of displaying a stepped series of baskets or containers, or to be completely tel-escoped with the containers in place, .so that the device will occupy a relatively small amount of soace; thus the device may be used either for display purposes or for storage of merchandise.
Referring to the drawings, the highest and relatively stationary frame member of the display rack includes a pair of inverted Unhaped elements, the intermediate portions 10 of which rest upon a suitable support, and the vertical legs 11 of which con stitute supporting standards for a rectangular frame member 12 formed of a connected series of angle members and offering a .shelf 13 for the reception of a container and an upstanding flange 14- which prevents move ment of the contain-er on the shelf.
The legs 11 of the two inverted lJ-frames may be connected together by diagonal bracing strips 15, and are also joined by horizontally disposed angle members 16 which serve a support and guide way for a rectangular frai ne 1'? similar to the frame 12. The forward corners of the frame 17 are supported on the upper ends of legs with the engagement of the rear cnd of the frame 17 with a cross angle member 20 connecting the rear pair of legs 11. To limit the forward sliding movement of the frame 17 in its guide ways 16, I provide across bar 21 connecting the under sides of the forward ends of the angle members 16. A depending stop lug 22 on the rear of the frame 17 engages the cross bar 21 to limit the outward movement of the frame 17.
Cooperatingwith the legs 18 to secure a channeled guide frame23 for the lowermost of the sliding rectangular frames 241 is an angular member which includes a de pending vertical extension 25 connected at its upper end to the rear of the sliding frame 17, and at its lower end guide frame 23 for the The forward end of, the a to the rear of the sliding frame 2%. guide frame/ 23 is .secured to the legs 18 as by rivets 26. i The rear end of the sliding frame 24 is always supported by the frame 23 and the forward end thereof is mounted on two legs 2? connected by a floor engaging transverse element 28 at their lower ends.
It is to be bar 29 connecting the f guide frame members orward ends of the 3, is engaged by a stop lug 30 depending from the rear of sliding frame 24-.
As best seen in Fig. 1, the fram for the reception of merehan ise to b e 14 and ti. two sliding frames 17, 24: are adapted to port containers such as the metal basket displayed. As illustrated in both Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings, the carriers for the two lower baskets 31 may be pulled out so that the baskets may be mounted in stepped formation to prominently display the contents of all of them. Fig. 2 shows the sliding frame I? pulled partly out, and the sliding frame 2% fully extended.
By virtue of the construction it will be apparent that all of the basket carrying frames may be relatively telescoped until the baskets are moved into vertical alignment whereby the display rack will serve as an ordinary set of storage members and will occupy only a small amount of space.
lVhile l. have shown metallic baskets mounted on the display rack, it will be obvious that numerous other types of containers might be used. It will also be evident that various changes and alterations might be made in the general form and arrangement of parts described, without departing from the invention. Hence I do not wish to limit myself to the details set forth, but shall consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall with in the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
I claim 2- 1. A display rack including an upper basket carrying frame and standards rigidly supporting said frame, a guide frame disposed subjarent the upper basket carrying frame and mounted in said standards, an intermediate basket carrying frame sliding in the guide frame and including standards at its forward end, a cross bar connecting the feet of said standards, an angular bracing member extending from the rear of the guide frame to the cross bar, a second guide frame supported subjacent the sliding frame in the legs thereof and connected to said angular bracing member, a lower basket carrying sliding frame mounted in said second guide frame and including standards at its forward end, whereby the intermediate and the lower sliding basket carrying frames may be projected outwardly to position the three basket carrying frames in stepped formation for display purposes, or may be telescope-d into vertical alignment with the upper basket carrying frame for storage of merchandise.
2. A. device of the class described in claim 1, and including means for limiting the inward and outward movement of the sliding basket carrying frames.
3. A. device of the class described in claim 1, wherein each guide frame is formed With a cross bar at its forward end engageable with stop lugs on the rear of the associated sliding frames whereby to limit outward movement of the sliding frames.
4. A display rack including an upper basket carrying frame, standards supporting said frame, a subjacent basket carrying frame guided for sliding movement between said standards, standards on the last mentioned frame, a second sliding frame mounted for sliding movement between the last mentioned standards and standards on the second sliding frame, all of said standards being arranged in pairs, and including trans verse floor engaging elements connecting the feet of each pair, said floor engaging elements acting as stop means to limit the in ward telescoping movement of the sliding frames.
