Description
L. A. NIELSEN DISPLAY STAND June 17,- 1930.
Filed Nov. 28, 1928 INVENTOR LAURITS A. NIELSEN Q BY I ATTORNEY Patented June 17, 1930 LAURITS A. NIELSEN, 01 SEATTLE, WASHINGTON msrnax mm Application filed November 28, 1928. Serial No. 822,399.
, This invention relates to improvements in display stands, and more particularly to stands of that character used within or upon show cases for the display of small articles such as jewelry, and which comprises one or more plate glass shelves supported by frames at their opposite ends.
The present invention is in the nature of an improvement on the display stand construction described and illustrated in United States Patent No. 1,586,213, issued to me on May 25, 1926, and the improvement resides in the construction of the clips, or clamps,
whereby the glass shelves are secured to the end frames and in the means for securing the parts in a substantial, rigidly connected relatlon.
In the patent above referred to, the end, or supporting, frames comprise cross bars on which the glass shelves are supported. One
edge of each panel is gripped by a clamp that is rigidly secured to the cross ar, while the other edge of each panel is gripped by a clamp that has a slidable connection with the cross bar. This above construction, while satisfactory to a certain extent, is of a more expensive construction than that hereinafter described, and it was principally for this reason and also for the purpose of eliminating unnecessary pieces, that the present construction was devised.
The principal object of this invention, therefore, resides in the provision of an improved type of display stand that is relatively inexpensive, substantially rigid when assembled, attractive in appearance and easily and readily assembled or disassembled.
In accomplishing the various objects of the invention, I have provided the improved de' tails of construction, the preferred forms of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein- I Figure 1 is a perspective view of a display 5 stand embodying the present invention.
Figure 2 is a cross sectional, detail, showing the glass panel support and attaching clips as clamped thereto.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3-3 in Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a perspective view of the same, showing the clamp screw mounted thereon.
Figure 6 is a plan viewof one of the attaching clips as applied.
Figure 7 is a cross section 7-7 in Figure 6.
Referring more in detail to the drawings- In one of its preferred'forms of constructaken on the line tion, the display stand consists of opposite end frames on which one or more glass shelves, or panels, 1, are supported. Each frame consists of a pair of spaced, upright leg portions 2 which may be provided with laterally turned feet 3 at their lower ends, through which anchor screws, or the like, may be ex-- tended if such are need -or desired. .Extended between the leg portions ofathe frames, are horizontal cross bars 4 on which the shelves or panels 1 are supported. Preferably, these frames and also the cross bars are made from flat strips of metal, as shown, but it is to be understood that they may be round, square, or of any other cross sectional shape.
In order that the shelves may be held secure on the cross bars and also in order that they may be used as the means for joining the opposite end frames to thereby provide a rigid and substantial structure without the necessity of using cross pieces, I have provided the attaching clips 5 and 5', as illustrated best in Figures 5, 6 and 7. These clips 5 and 5 are applied to the opposite edges of the shelves for the purpose of securing the shelves rigidly to the frames. Each of the .clips consists of a flat piece of metal which has portions thereof underlying the cross bars4 and with hook portions engaging the edges of the panels. The clip 5, as shown in Figures 2 and 6, consists of a flatplate, of metal, arranged with a central depression 5 for receiving therein a cross bar 4 to which it is applied, and at opposite sides of the depression,the plate flatly engageswith the under side of the shelf or panel. At its outer edge, the plate is provided with spaced apart, upturned hooks 5 adapted 'to engage over the edge of the shelf, while the edge 5" of the plate between the hook portions is adapted are first placed in upright position, as in Fig-" ure 1; then, a glass shelf is extended between 3 the frames for support at its ends on corresponding cross bars 4. Then the clips 5 are applied to one edge of the shelf by placin them beneath the cross bar with their hot portions engaging the edge of the shelf and the edge portion of the plate, between the hooks, abutting against the adjacent vertical;
It will be noted also that when the parts are so connected, the shelves themselves serveas connecting parts between the end franies so that no cross braces are necessary in order to tion. a,
It will be noted that none of the parts are provide a rigid and substantial construcframe and abuttin against one of said legs and having hooke portions formed thereon for engaging with the adjacent edge of the shelf, another clamp plate underlying the cross bar at the other side of the frame and having hooks formed thereon engaging the oppositeedge of the shelf, a lug formed on the last named plateand a clamp screw threaded through the lug for engagmg with the ad acent frame leg for the purpose set I forth."
3. Adevice as in claim 2, wherein the clamp plates have depressions therein slidably receiving the cross bar and having spaced a art hooks for engaging the edges of the she f at opposite 'sides of theframe legs.

permanently joined and maybe "easily and" quickly disassembled, simply by loosening the set screws so as to permit the clip 5' to] be released. This permits removal of the shelves from the clips 5 andthe releas the latter clips from the frames.
Having thus described my inventiomwhat I claim as new therein and' desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. In a standof the character described,a frame comprising spaced legs and a cross bar joining said legs, a shelf overlying the cross bar, a clamp plate underlying the crossbar and abutting against one, ofisaid legs a'nd" having hooked portions engaging the adja cent edge of theshelf, and another clamp" plate underlying the cross bar at the other 7 side of the frame andihaving. hooked por tions engaging the opposite edgeof the shelf and a clamp screw mounted bythe last named plate'for engaging the adjacent'frame leg to i retain the hooks shelf.
