UNITED STA RICHARD 1K. IRVINE, OF VISALIA, CALIFORNIA.
DISPLAY STAND.
Application filed July 23,
This invention relates to improvements in store fixtures and particularly to a stand for supporting a number of small articles for display in the store. My improved stand con- 6 sists essentially of a post and a number of shelves mounted thereon; my principal objects being to provide a stand structure in which the shelves are adjustable on the post, and to provide a simple means separate from m the shelves for enabling the same to be easily set at different heights on the post, while at the same time insuring that the shelves will be held against vertical movement in either di- 7 rection and also prevented from sidewise l tipping. The provision of the separate shelf holding means permits the shelves to be flat boards or similar elements without the need of any hubs or other projections thereon, and
thus enables the cost of construction of these members to be kept very low. Also the arrangement of parts when assembled gives the completed stand a neat and clean appearance.
- A further object of the invention is to produce a simple and inexpensive device and yet one which will be exceedingly effective for the purpose for which it is designed.
These objects I accomplish by means of such structure and relative arrangement of parts as will fully appear by a perusal of the following specification and claims.
In the drawings similar'characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several views:
Fig. 1 is a perspective elevation of my improved stand looking at the rear of the same. Fig. 2 is a fragmentary transverse section of the stand.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a shelf holdin member detached.
eferring now more particularly to the characters of reference on the drawings, the stand comprises a base of suitable material, shape and imensions, fixed in and projecting upwardly f om which is a post 2 preferably of square cross section. Slidable on the post are the shelves 3, also of suitable shape anddimensions and preferably symmetrical to the base. Each shelf is formed of a single fiat element which is preferably laminated wood suitably painted or otherwise finished,
but which may be glass or other -ri 'd material. Each shelf has a central orifice the same shape as the post and fitting snugly thereover. The back of the post hasa numher of vertically spaced slits 'or grooves 4 1927. Serial No. 208,026.
out therein which extend from side to side of the post and whose depth while considerable Is not suflicient to weaken the post. The number of these slits determines the different positions which the shelves may occupy on the post.
The shelves are held in such different positions adjacent thev slits by means of thin metal holding plates 5 which are adapted at their inner ends to enter and snugly engage the slits. The plates extend under the shelves to the adjacent outer edges thereof and are then bent upwardly and over the shelves in the form of grooves or channels 6 which snugly engage the shelves. The plates are somewhat wider than the post and being rigid the shelves are held from sidewise tipping. The shelves are held from downward movement by the plates underneath and are also held from upward displacement by reason of the overhanging flanges or. lips of the plate channels. At the same time it is a. simple matter to remove any holder by drawing the same outwardly from the shelf and post, when the corresponding shelf may be shifted up or down.
The sllts are on the back side of the post as stated, and the holders of course project from the corresponding side so that they are not visible from the front of the stand. In order to accommodate a number of holder plates and also to receive price tags or the like the back edge of the base is provided with a plurality of dee recesses or pockets7.
In the event tliatit is desired to apply an extension 0st 2 to the main post, so as to increase t e height of the stand, a metal sleeve 8 is fitted on top of the post 2 to form a socket for the reception of the lower end of the extension post as shown in Fig. 2.
When the sleeve is not in use in supporting such extension, it may if desired be surmounted as shown in Fig. 1 by a removable ornamental cap 9 of suitable design.
From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that I have produced such a de vice as substantially fulfills the objects of the invention as set forth herein.
While this specification sets forth in detail the present and preferred construction of the device, still in practice such deviations from such detail may be resorted to as do not form a departure from the spirit of the invention, as defined by the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and useful and desire to se- 'cure by Letters Patent is:
1. A displa stand including a post, shelves slidable on t e post, and flat plates wider than the postarranged under the shelves and separate therefrom; one face of the 0st having vertically spaced transverse slits to removably receive the adjacent ends of the lates. P 2. A display stand including a post, shelves
