DISPLAY DEVICE.
Application filed November 18, 1925. Serial No. 69,777.
This invention relates to display devices, cards or the like and particularly to a device of this class constructed. of printed, lithographed or otherwise characterized cardboard, folded to form frame or background portions, and a part projecting from and setting within the frame and background portions whereby said part will be outstanding with respect to the remainder of the device to produce a neat and attractive display; a further object being to provide a display device of the class specified which may be constructed from a single piece of cardboard, and in connection with which may be mounted, if desired, an easel for support ing a predetermined part or parts of the display when in extended position; a further object being to provide a device of the class specified which may be compactly folded together into a substantially rectangular package, facilitating the packing and shipment of the device or a number of such devices without danger of destruction to any part thereof; and with these and other obthe invention consists in adisplay device of the class and for the purpose specified which is simple in construction, efficient in use, and which is constructed as hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention is fully disclosed in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawing forms a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by suitable reference characters in each of the views, and in which:
Fig. 1 is a front perspective view of one form of device which I employ in extended position.
Fig. 2 Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a rear perspective view of the structure shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a rear view of the blankfrom which the device is formed with the parts in is a. section on the line '22 of Fig. 5 is a view showing the parts of the device shown in folded position.
Fig. 6 is a front view of apart of a moditied form of device which I employ.
Fig. 7 is a face view of a blank from which the device shown in Fig. 6is formed with the parts in extended position; and,
Fig. 8 is a plan view of the device shown inFigs. 6 and '2 when in its folded position.
Figs. 1 to 4.- inclusive in In Figs. 1 to 4: inclusive, 1 have shown one of my improved display devices comprising a central body part 10, side wall parts 11 foldable on the part 10 on the lines l2, and s de flaps 13 foldable on the parts 11 on the lines 14. In the structure shown in Figs. 1
fit)
to 5 inclusive, the parts 13 have projecting portions 13 which are cut from the parts 11 and extend across the fold lines 1d and.
are designed to represent the corner portions of boxes for display purposes, as seen in Fig. 1 of the drawing. It will be apparent that any pro ecting arrangement may be pro duced however to display articles of any kind or class as extensions from the parts 18 or extensions on the parts 11.
The general shape of the central part 10 1S rectangular and is provided with an up-' wardly projecting regular portion 1O foldable on the part 10 on the line 15, and which in the construction shown, resembles in outline, the head, neck, shoulder and body structure of a woman, it being understood that the parts 10 and 10 will be printed and lithographed to produce a very attractive, artistic arrangement for the display of predetermined merchandise, but the printing or lithographing is not indicated in that it forms no part of the invention. The remainder of the body of the girl or woman represented in the display is formed by a cut out portion 10 on the part 10. Inthe representation,*the girl or woman is pictured as sitting upon a fence, bench, stool or'othersupport represented by the portion 10 of the part 10, which extends into the parts 11 or is partially formed by cut outs 11 in said arts. The score or fold lines 12 extend through the parts 10 and 11 as clearly seen in Fig. 1 of the drawing. The cut out 10 of the part 10 terminates at the points 16, and horizontalscore or fold lines 17 extend to the points 16 and also through the cut outs 11 as clearly seen in Fig. 1 of the draw- 1n a 1 device fashioned in the manner thus far described may be folded from the extended position shown in Fig. 4 of the drawing to the display position represented in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing by folding the parts 1111 and 13-13 forwardly to form of the parts 11, side walls arranged at right angles to the part 10 and of the parts 13, angularly disposed frame members or flaps arran ed at substantially degrees to said side walls,
all!
after which the part 10 is folded forwardly on a score line 18 in parallel relation to the score line 1? and thcrebeneath, and the part it) is folded upwardly on the score line 17. The projecting tongues 11" on the parts 11 ,fOllllLtl by the cut outs 11 are passed over the upper edges of the cut outs 11 to support the entire device in extended position as clearly noted in Figs. 1 and 3 of the draw ing. in this position of the parts, it will be apparent that the representation of the girl or woman is projected with reference to the back wall formed by the part. 10 and sets within the side walls formed by the parts 11, thus oti'seitting the figure witlrrespect to the background. In this connection, it will also be apparent that the hole or aperture 19 formed by the cut out; 10" is concealed by said out out 10 when the display is set up, especially when viewing the display directly from the front.
111 folding the several parts of the dis play together to form the rectangular package seen in Fig. 5 of the drawing, the part 10 is folded inwardly upon the part 10 on the line It is preferred that an easel be employed for supporting the part 10 in up right position so as to reinforce said part. In the construction shown, I have secured to the part 10 a strip of cardboard 20 having a toldable and apertured flap 21 adapted to engage and interlock with projecting tongues 22 on foldable sides 23 of another piece of cardboard secured to the part 10 or the portion 10 of said part. The operative position of the easel is shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing, and is also shownextended in F ig. 4. In the collapsed position of the device, it will be understood that the cut outportions 11" are toldable upon the part 10 in order that all of the parts of the device are contained within the general rectangular contour of the part 10, thus forming a neat and compactpackage for shipment.
In Figs. 6 to S inclusive, I have shown a slight n'iodification wherein the use of the easel is eliminated, and the entire device is constructed from a single piece of cardboard. In this structure, I employ a part 24; similar to the part 10 and parts 25 and 26 substantially similar to the parts 11 and 13. Art 535i is shown a part extending from the partfli, and it is substantially the same as the part 10 or is of contour representing that oi? the head and body of a girl or woman. The parts 24 and 24 have extensions in the form of tongues 2? partially formed from the parts 25 which are adapted to enter apertures 28 formed in the parts 25 when the display is in set up position as seen in Fig. 6 of the drawing. Two fold lines 29 and 30 are employed on the part 24; to extend the part 24 forwardly and upwardly as in Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive, and a portion 24" of the part 24 is out out in the manner of the cut out 10 to represent the legs oi the girl or woman. lVith the structure shown in Figs. (.5 lo ti inclusive, it will be apparent that the parts 2-4;" when locked in engagement with the parts is support ed in upright position without the use of an easel. In couu mctly folding the parts together, a score or :l'old line 31 is provided at the top of the part ill proper; this line extends centrally through the projecting tongues 27. The result oil the collapsing of the entire display re 'iresented in Fig. 8 of the drawing, wherein it will be noted that the only parts which project are the tongues :27, thus forming a substantially rectangular and compact package of the display device.
It will be understood that I am not necessarily limited to either specific form of construction herein shown and describeh nor am 1 limited to any particular subject matter of the display nor the arrangement of display bodies on the several parts ol": the. device; and various changes in, and 1nodiiications of, the construction herein Shown and described may be made within the scope the appended claims without departing 110111 the spirit oi my invention or sacrificing; its advantages.
