WINDOW-DISPLAY HANGER.
This invention relates to store window displays and particularly to a special hanger means for supporting or suspending a sign or other display in the window for observation from without.
The objects of the invention are to provide a simple inexpensive bracket device readily attached to the molding over a store window, or other support, so that a sign or other display may be suspended therefrom at a point set back away from the glass oi the window.
In the drawings hereto F ig. 1 1s a perspective view ot' one o'jiny bracket arrangements complete in position attached to the inside molding above a store window.
Fig. v2 is a reduced perspective sketch showing a pair of my devices in posit on with a sign suspended therefrom hanging parallel to the glass, of the window and spaced hack therefrom. 1 r
Fig. 3 shows a sign suspended from one rod. only of a bracket as of Fig. 2.
In further detail the device comprises a plate of sheet metal stamped to form a right angle bracket with legs 1 and 2 stiffened by flanges at the edges as at 3. Leg is preferably somewhat shorter than leg 2 and is vertically slotted at 4 to pass the eye head of a common screw-eye 5 screwed into the upper molding 6. of a window, the show glass of which is seen at 7, the plate being bl; red in position by slipping it over the vertically disposed screw-eye and then swinging the plate around so that the screweye lies in a plane crossing the slot 4 and 13 thus prevented from falling off.
Two upstanding lugs 8 and 8' are provided on the longer or horizontally extending leg 2 preferably formed by bending upward a portion of the plate, and these lugs are perforated with allgned holes to receive a rod 9 which is slid into the holes and behind. the inner lug 8 until it abuts leg 1 as shown. The rod may be slightly notched where it engages the lug'8 as indicated so as not to be accidentally pulled out, and it usually about two or three vteet long and its extreme end is preferably flattened and apertured as shown at 10 to receive a wire or string or line 11 which is passed through the hole and twisted or tied to the rod so that it will not slip, and one end is in the upper edge of the sign as shown and tied through the hole in the end. of the rod 9', and the sign adjusted so that it will hang level.
The device will' be seen to hold avdisplay in proper viewing relation to a store window, ,and to be easily removed by simply pulling out the rods 9, or by lifting from the screw-eyes 5 after detaching the cords. The extension of the cords to the screw-eye provides an angular tension member so that the rod 9'may be of minimum size so as to avoid a clumsy appearance which would destroy its value for use in a window displa.y,-and the bracket plate member l2 being attached to the inside'of the window moldingis invisible to a person viewing the display from outside. I
In contemplating the invention as described it will be evident that it is'not re stricted to suspension of a window display but that it may be used to advantage in other parts of a store in the suspension of signs or goods of some kinds.
I claim:
A device suitable for suspending a show window display comprising a sheet metal bracket provided with two legs extending at right angles to one another, the metal at the margins of the legs being bent to form stiffening flanges, and one ofthelegs having its outer end portion and an interme-.
diate portion bent at right angles to the plane of the leg and both portions perfo rated in alignment, a rod extending through said perforations and projecting beyond the bracket, means on the other leg of the bracket adapted for suspending the bracket from a wall with the rod projecting hori- Zontally, and a flexible device extending angularly from said other leg to the end of the rod, and thence downwardly to support a sign.
FRANK V. HARKNESS.
