Description

Aug. 4, 1931. c. H. JARvls PRICE TAG HOLDER Fled March 2, 1931 BY u@ MORNEYS Patented Aug. 4, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CHAR-LES H. JAB-VIS, OF BATTLE CREEK, MCHGAN, ASSIGNOR- '1'0 UNTTED STEEL & WIRE COMPANY, OIF BATTLE CREEK, 'vCHGAN PRICE TAG HOLDER Application led March 2,
The main object of this invention is to provide a price tag holder for metal shelves which may be easily applied to or removed from the shelf, is effective for the purpose and does not disigure the shelf or obstruct the use thereof.
Objects pertaining to details and economies of my invention will definitely appear from the description to follow. The invenl tion is defined in the claims.
A structure embodying the features of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. l is a fragmentary front elevation j of shelving embodying my invention, parts being shown conventionally for convenience in illustration.
Fig. 2 is a detail section on line 2 2 of Fig. l with one of the price cards shown 2o in Fig. l omitted.
Fig. 3 is a section corresponding to that of 2 with the second price card in position.
lig. l is a rear perspective View of the price card or tag holder illustrating the method of assembling the holder on the shelf.
Referring to the drawings, the uprights Al, which are shown conventionally, are
adapted to receive a series of shelves 2 formed of sheet metal, each shelf having down-turned front flange 3 terminating in a rearwardly projecting portion ll.
My holder comprises a pair of sheet metal members 5 and 6 disposed in superimposed relation and secured together as by spot welding, these members having inturned flanges 7 and 8, respectively, on their opposite edges providing a channel adapted to receive a price tag as 9. rFhe rear member 6 has a rearwardly projecting flange l0 on its lower edge, the edge of which is turned inwardly at all to overlap the rearwardly projecting portion of the shelf flange as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3, thereby supporting the holder at the front edge of the shelf.
The shelves are removable and the tag holder is designed to be engaged with the shelf by slipping longitudinally on the 1931. Serial No. 519,362.
flange of the shelf as indicated in Fig. 4l. If desired a price or announcement tag l2 may be inserted between the shelf and the holder as shown in Fig. 3. However, in this position the tag constitutes an obstruction for the space between the shelves.
My improvements may be employed without detracting from the appearance of the shelving or resulting in projecting parts which obstruct the use of the shelving.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. In a device of the class described, the combination with a metal shelf having a downwardly and inwardly turned flange on its edge, and a card holder comprising a pair of sheet metal members arranged in superimposed relation and having opposed flanges providing a channel-shaped card holder, the rear member having a supporting flange at its bottom edge disposed below the flange on the shelf and folded inwardly to engage the rearwardly projecting portion thereof whereby the holder is supported at the front edge of the shelf and so that a card may be inserted between the shelf and the holder.
2. A price tag holder for a metal shelf having a downwardly and inwardly turned flange on its edge consisting of a pair of sheet metal members secured together in superimposed relation and having opposed flanges providing a channel-shaped card holder, the rear member having a rearwardly projecting supporting flange at its lower edge folded upon itself to engage the rearwardly turned portion of a shelf flange.
In witness whereof l'. have hereunto sot my hand.
CHARLES H. JARVIS.
