Serial No. 351,018.
This invention relates to a portable vending structure in the form of a wheelsupported conveyance constructed to provide a satisfactory form of vehicle for facilitating display and dispensing of merchandise and commodities of the domestic species.
More specifically stated, the invention has reference to a novel structural organization of parts, such as may be embodied in a complete vehicle or employed as an auxiliary trailer, the same embodying a multiple arrangement of article supporting shelves assembled into distinct sections and so co-related as to expedite access and saleandrto provide a convenience and compactness of arrangement inorder to adapt the structure for city and community service.
The particular details and their special cooperation and association will become more readily apparent from the following description and drawings.
In the drawings: 1 Figure 1 isa top plan view of the complete structural arrangement embodied in a vehicle.
Figure 2 is a side elevational view with one of the longitudinal side sections swung to open position. v
' Figure 3 is a top plan view of the base portion of the structure.
Figure 4 is a vertical section on the line l of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a sectional view, taken approxi-v mately upon the plane of the line 55 of Figure 6, and V Figure 6 is a cross section taken on the line 66 of Figure 3.
The complete and general arrangement of parts may be readily seen in Figure 4. Here the reference character 7 designates generally a body which is constructed to provide an enclosure for a plurality of individual and 12 arranged on opposite sides of the division i or partition piece 13; Thereferencecharacters 14 designate generally outer side sections havingouter closing walls 15, and hingedly mounted to'permit the swinging of the sections outwardly to the positions shown in Figure 2. In this connection, it will be observed that the reference character 16 .desighates the base frame, located beneath the rigid section 8 and the swingable sectionsl l.
sition shown in F-igurel. Incidentally, this slidable section 9 is' providedlwith hinged closing doors 21, 'for the shelves 12.
The reference" characters 22 vdesignate These'are spaced apart on opposite'sides of hingedly mounted awnings associated w-ith 1' the body portion 7 of the structure. Then, too, the reference-characters 23 designate 'similarbut smaller awnings which are associated with the slidable section 9." These awnings 23 are disposed on opposite sides 'of and connected with a roofing awning por tion 24, this in turn being connected with the body portion in a manner to permit itfto be swung downwardly to effect a closure.
The portions 28 and 2a provide a multiple part auxiliary awning, of such construction that the portions23 may be swungdow'n and telescoped into the compartment'9,when the slidable section 10 is slid therein Then, too, the portion 24 effectsla closure for the-rear end of the structure defined. LThus, this auX- iliary awning for the extensible shelf section 10 has a double function.
In addition to the shelf section and the awning, I provide means for'operating the relatively slidable or telescopic section. 10 and this comprises awindlass generally desbe retracted into the housing.
ignated by the reference character 25 in Figure 3. This is provided with an operating crank 26. Associated therewith is a cable, one end portion 27 of .which is connected with the inner portion 28 of the slidable section and wound around the Windlass and the other end portion of which ispassed over a stationary pulley 29 and anchored to the front portion as at 80. Thus, by turning the hand crank 36 in one direction, the section 10 may be fed outwardly, whereas by turning it in the opposite direction, the section may In order to steady the operation of the slidable section, an additional cable 31 is provided, it being wound on the Windlass and extending up over a pulley 32 as shown in Figure 2, and connected with the top of the slidable section as at 33. This prevents sagging of the section 10, When it is extended to the position shown in Figures 1 and 2. Thus, a mechanical manually manipulatedmeans is afforded for projected or retracting the central slidable shelf section 10. Of course, the track and the complemental stringers and rails facilitate the operation and aid in the rigidity of arrangement.
The gist of the invention is embodied in a portable structural arrangement embodying a pair of spaced parallel rigid sections defining a compartment for the reception of a relatively slidable section, and hingedly mounted side sections serving as closures for the rigid sections.
In. this way, the hinged sections may be swung out to expose the contents of their respective shelves, and to simultaneously expose the contents of the shelves of the rigid section. The display is amplified by the presence of the slidable section having shelves on the opposite sides of the partition enclosed by individual doors or closures.
A careful consideration of the description in conjunction with the drawings will enable a reader to obtain a clear understanding of the construction and arrangement as well as the featuresand advantages.
Therefore, a more lengthy description is regarded as unnecessary.
Minor changes in the shape, size, materials and rearrangement of details may be resorted to, within the scope of the adjoined claims, if desired.
class described, a body including a base, relatively fixed shelf sections mounted on said base and disposed in spaced parallelism and defining an intervening central compartment, swingable shelf sections mounted on said fixed sections and adapted to swing outwardly to open position to simultaneously expose the contents of the shelves on said fixed sections and swingablesections, tracks in said compartment, and a slidable shelf section including rollers slidable on said tracks, and individual awnings for said swingable section and said slidable section, the awnings for the slidable section having the additonal function of closing means when the slidable section is telescoped into the compartment.
In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature.
