DISPLAY STAND.
Application filed November 10, 1927.
This invention is an improvement in dis play stands, and more particularly in a stand of the foldable type designed to display a number of rows of containers or the like, with a minimum of fore and aft spread.
In the usual construction of display stands for merchandise, there is a relatively large fore and aft spread of the stand, in order to provide a stable base for the stand, and usu ally the supports are in stepwise relation.
One of the primary objects of the present invention is the provision of a stand of the character specified, wherein the display is supported in rows in vertical relation with one row directly above the other, thereby to limit the fore and aft spread of the extended stand.
Another object is the provision of a. stand of a firm and stable character when extended, and occupying a minimum of space in both extended and contracted or collapsed condition.
Another object is the provision of a lightweight inexpensive and attractive stand, wherein the articles are held in position to best display the advertising matter thereon.
WVith these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction and novel combination of parts fully described hereinafter, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims appended hereto, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, size and minor details of construction within the scope of the claims, may be resorted towithout departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings forming a part hereof 1- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the improved stand in extended position.
Fig. 2 is a side view with the stand folded, and with parts broken away.
In the present embodiment of the invention the improved stand is composed of a plurality of sets of end. bars, indicated at 1, 2 and 3, arranged alongside each other, and con nected to a base and to a plurality of supports, in such manner that the bars of each set may be moved into edgewise contact, or into spaced relation.
To each bar 1 a base member l is pivoted, each of the base members being in the form of a yoke as shown, with the body thereof pivoted to the bar 1 at the lower end thereof, and near one end of the yoke, and near that Serial No. 232,305.
end which will. be in front when the stand is extended.
Each base member is adapted to be also A plurality of merchandise supports is connected to the bars, the said supports being in the present instance four in number. Each of the supports consists of two parts, pivotally connected through the intermediary of the bar 2, so that the parts may occupy the position of Fig. 1, Where they are at substantially a right angle with respect to each other, or in the position of Fig. 2, where they are at an acute angle with respect to each other.
Each of the supports consists of what may be considered a back and a shelf, although the distinction is purely arbitrary, as either part acts in the manner of a shelf or a back, the two parts constituting What is in effect a trough for the merchandise.
The back of each support is composed of an inverted substantially U-shaped member,
comprising a body 8 extending between the bars 3, and arms 9, which are pivoted to the bars 3, near the junction of the arms with the body, as indicated at 10. The ends of the arms 9 remote from the body are pivoted to the bars 2 as indicated at 11, the pivotal connection being in common with the shelf part of the support as will be later described.
The arms 9 are connected at approximately midway of their length by a cross bar 12, and the body 8 is braced against the cross bar 12 by a brace 13 of strip material, bent in sinusoidal or zigzag form between the body and the bar and riveted or otherwise secured to both body and bar.
The other part of each support or shelf is somewhat similar, consisting of a substantially U-shaped member including a body 14. and arms 15, which are pivoted to the bars 1 near their junction with the body. The ends of the arms remote from the body are pivoted on the common connection 11 body and with its upper edge extending above the body as clearly shown. This extended portion of the strip may overlie the tops of the merchandise containers when resting on the support, or the containers may lie against the said extended edge as may be found convenient or desirable. By releasing the fastenings 5 and 6, the parts may be folded into position of Fig. 2, that is with the side edges of the bars 1, 2 and 3 abutting, and with the shelf portions of the support folded onto the back portions. The base members 4 may then be folded along the bars 1 as shown, so that the stand is in a very compact condition for transport or storage. \Vhen extended the stand occupies a minimum of space, but little more than a section of shelving, a bookcase orthe like, would occupy.
What is claimed as new is 1. In combination, a stand including a plurality of two part supports, a rigid spacing member for each set of parts pivotally connected thereto, the parts of each support being pivotally connected, a rigid connection between all of the pivots of the parts, whereby the parts of each support may be simultaneously folded or extended, a base member for each end of the stand, each base member pivoted to one of the spacing members, and having means for detachably connecting it with the other spacing member and with the rigid connection between the parts.
2. In combination, a stand including a plurality of two part supports, a rigid spacing member for each set of parts pivot-ally connected thereto, the parts of each support being pivotally connected, a rigid connection between all of the pivots of the parts, whereby the parts of each support may be simultaneously folded or ext-ended, and means at each end of the stand for connection with the spacing members and the rigid.
connection at said end to hold the parts in adjusted position.
3. A display stand composed of a plurality of similar merchandise supports, each consisting of two parts hingedly connected, and means to hold the supports one above the other in spaced relation in either folded or extended condition, comprising side bars pivoted to the remote ends of the support parts, a bar pivoted to the joints between the support parts at each side of the stand, and a base member for connection with each set of bars, each base member pivoted to one bar and detachably connected with the other bars of the set.
t. A stand of the class described, including a plurality of similar merchandise supports, each consisting of a shelf part and a back part, said parts of each support being hingedly connected, a bar at each end of the stand pivoted to the hinge connections of all of the parts, a bar pivoted to each set of parts at each end of the stand for holding the members of the set in parallel relation, and a base member at each end of the stand, each member pivoted to one of the adjacent bars, and having means for detachably connecting it with the other bars at the said end to hold the stand extended.
