STEP DISPLAY.
Application led March- 14, 1927. Serial No. 175,247.
This invention relates to a folding card display stand made of a single sheet of material and foldable flatly when it is collapsed but extensible into a step form for display purand bottom of the display card whieh'lyforms the steps and has an intermediate portion unconnected to the easel stand so that in folding, certain of the steps will overlap allowing the display card and its easel to fold compact,
ly for shipping and storage. Opther objects of the invention will appear hereinafter.
In the accompanying drawing; Figure 1 is a perspective of a display stand constructed in accordance with the principles of this invention.
Figure 2 is a section illustrating the invention in collapsed form; and Figure 3 is a plan view in collapsed form. Heretofore it has not been practical to supply a folding step display device for the reason that if the display member has been attached to an easel it would not fold compactly, and if these two members are not attached, it is very diflicult to set them up properly and to keep them in folded position after they.V are set up.' The present invention overcomesthese objections by attaching the easel to the bottom and the top of the display member and by so proportioning the steps and the fold lmes of the easel stand that both members will collapse into a flat form with eertain of the steps overlapping, whereby the folded display not only will occupy a mini` mum space when it is collapsed, but also it is easily and accurately extended and maintained in its displaying condition.
Referrin more particularly to the drawings, a disp ay card or member 1 is provided with opposite scores or cuts 2 and 3, adapting it to foldoppositely upon itself in a more or less zig-zag fashion and to formv a plurality of steps twith connected risers 5. The
uppermost portion of the display member may be a larger portion to form a background for any display carried by theother portion thereof or it may be provided with a score line atthe top of its supporting stand which will adapt-itto turn backwardly, forming another step.
The easel stand for this display preferably comprises a pair of members 6 and 7 which may be cut from the same piece of material or may be formed separately, and if con' nected in pairs,'as shown in Figure 1, one of the members is formed With-a notched lock- Ing tongue 8 adapted to engage in a corresponding locking notch 9 of the other member and to hold` the two members J'spaced apart in upright position.
or lower locking Wing .1()4 attached to the inner side of the lowermost-,ste y riser 5 and with an upright wing 11 Whc is attached to the rear of the uppermost portion 12 ofthe display member 1. The distance between the plane of the riser 12 andthe plane of the low- Each easel member is with a front i ermost riser 5 is equally divided by a score line 13 which coincides.l with the riser line at the rear of one of the steps which form the display so that the width of the distance actually occupied by the steps is equally divided by the score line 13 .which therefore requires that the Isteps included between the wings 10 and. 11 be equal in number or else that one ofthe steps be provided with an additional fold line in order to make the entire structure foldable compactly. Y
At the bottom of each a score line 15 forming a locking wing 16 for maintaining the easel stand infposition, particularly for. holding the score line 13 from collapsing when the easel stand is unfolded. With this construction, lit is obvious that the steps, and all of the risers except the lowof theveasel wings is` ermost one are unconnected with the easel,
stand and that they are heldin place on the easel stand by their own weight and by the weight of any articles placed thereon. When the steps are even in number, they will collapse in zig-zag fashionwith spaced apart sections, as shown in Figure 2, the easel stand members 6 and 7 folding outwardly and collapsing upon themselves, as shown more clearly in Figure 3. It is obvious that any equal number of steps ma be combined in a structure as thus descri ed and any odd number of steps may also be provided if an extra fold line, is placed in one of the steps. y
I claim: f
1'.- Afolding step display stand comprising a display member oppositely-folded to form transverse steps to fold one upon the other in collapsing, and aneasel secured thereto at the top and bottom but free intermediate thereof with steps in the edge to support the member in step form and having fold lines coinciding with the risers of one of the steps so that the member and easel fold'compactly.
2. A step display stand comprising a continuous member scored transversely to form a succession of connected steps, and an easel permanently secured thereto at top and bottom with an intermediate unconnected portion and having steps in the edge to support `the steps'of themember when it is extended.
y and scored transversely to form steps which fold together, and the easel having steps to support the steps of the member and being scoredto fold"at right` angles thereto on the line of one of the step risers.
5. In a display stand of the class described, a member and an easel permanently connected to each other at top and bottom, the intermediate portions being unconnected, the member being continuous but scored to form transverse steps and risers which fold together,
and the easel being scored to fold at right anglesthereto and supporting each step, one
of the folding scores being intermediate the portion covered by the steps.
6. In a display stand, a continuous display member and an easel connected to each other vat top and bottom with the intermediate portion' being unconnected, the member being scored on opposite sides to form an even number of steps which fold together, and the easel being scored to fold at right angles thereto, one of the easel fold lines being mid' way of the distance between the front and4 rear edges of the steps when the easel and member are distended so the easel will fold upon itself.
7. A step display stand, comprising a continuous member` scored oppositely toform transverse steps, and an easel secured thereto at topand bottom with intermediate steps in the edge to support the steps of the mem! A ber in distended position, the easel having :fold lines transverse to the fold lines of the member and between the front and back of the easel when distended so it will fold upon itself in collapsing, and a scored locking strip at the bottom of the easel to prevent the easel from collapsing when it is in distended form.
8. A step display stand comprising a member scored in opposite sides to form transverse steps, a foldable easel stand comprising a pair of members with wings at top and bottom permanently secured to the top and bottom of the display member, the intermediate portions being unconnected, the easel sections being scored at right angles to the score lines in the member between the front and back thereof when distended adapting the easel sections to fold upon themselves when the display stand collapses, means for locking the easel sections against collapsing. and an additional connecting link between the easel stand sections for locking them apart in spaced re lation.
