G; F. EGAN DISPLAY DEVICE Original Filed Aug. 5, 1925 Patented Aug; 21, 1928.
DISPLAY 'DEVICE Original application filed August 3, 1925, Serial No. 47,866. Divided'and this application filed April 8,
" 1926. Serial No. 100,618. I
The present invention relates to improvments in display devices and consitutes a division of my oopending similarly entitled application, filed August 3, 1925,'Serial No.
An object of the'invention described and claimed herein is to provide an extremely light and inexpensive, yet strong devicefor holding a card, tag and, the like in display 2 windows or upon shelves for indicating the cost of goods or some other message in con nection with goods With the foregoing and'other objects in view, the invention will be more fully described hereinafter, and will. be more pal ticularly pointed out in the claims appended hereto.
In the drawings, wherein like symbols refer to like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, a
Figure 1 is a perspectlve view ofa display I device constructed according to the present invention;
, Figure 3 is a cross section taken on the line 3-3 in Figure 2.
Referring more particularly to Figure 1, the device is shown as madeof a single piece of sheet metal bent intermediately of its ends as indicated. at 21, and shown as providing two wing portions 22 and 23 at an angle, whereby the device may be set up upon either edge. of support is provided by this divergent wing structure, which prevents the device from tilting or falling over even when supporting a rather large card.
The upper edges of the wing portions are p shown as provided with slots 2% and 25 at substantially the same distance from the angle or corner, whereby to simultaneously receivethe'lower edge portion of a card' These slots are preferably made at an angle extending downwardly toward the corner portion in order to hold the card at a slight inclination, This inclination of the slots is also useful in avoiding undue weakening of the material, as other slots 26 and 27 are shown made in the loweredge of the wing portions. The inner edges of theseslots are spaced apart by the inclination given.
A relatively wide area i The slots 26 and 27 maybe substantially Y amass r1 "5mm; or anasnrcrrv, new
straight or vertical in order to hold the card I in an upright position when placed thereinq Thus the device admits of variety in the manner of the displayof a card; a
In Figures 2 and 3there is provided a device similar to that shown in Figure 1,
in which the angle ortion 21, wings 22 and 23 are similar, an provided with similar slots, except that the inclination of these slots may vary. The device is shown as" having a a further substantially horizontal slot 31 extending about the corner portion 21 vertical when the device is set up upon the edge parts 32 with the corner portion 21 and preferably being in an angle to i the uppermost. In such'position the slot 31 is adapted to receive and support "a card. In
this instance also the slots 26wand 27 may be arranged on an inclination, which is preferably parallel to the slots 24 and 25, in order that the inner face of the slots may be offi set as much as possible to avoid reducing Figure 2 is a similar View showing a mod 2 ification; and 1 and 27 as far as practicable from the end portions of the slot 31. y g
It is obvious that various changes and modifications may be made in the details of construction and design of the above specifically described embodiment of this invention without departing from the spirit thereof. 7
What is claimed is 1. A display device comprising a sheet body bent transversely to provide a. pair of wings extending at acute angles to one another and adapted to be reversably stood on either end with its angled connecting portion extending substantially vertically, said pair of wings having pairsof mating slots therein, one pair of slots opening through one end of thedevice and the other pair of slots opening throughthe other end of the device, said slots being"v inclined to the vertical in the set-up position ofthe de-i :vice with the open mouths of the slotsin approximate central parts of the respective wing edges and with the inner parts of the I slots in each wing remotefrom one another.
2. A display device comprising a thin, f
flat flexible sheetbody longer than wide and bent permanently on its intermediate trans- VGI'SG axis to an acute angle to provide a pair of similar fiat wings adapted to he stood triangularly upon either end, said Wings having pairs of slots therein to receive cards,
being at approximately the central parts of the ends of the'Wings, the slots at oppo site ends offthedevice extending inrela-' tively opposite diagonal directions from the slots mouths inwardly into the Wings.
In testimony WhereofI affix my signature.
