My invention relates to supporting means for calendarsand ythe 'like wherein it is designed toprovide a simple, inexpensive structurewhichoperates to hold a 4display in an upright position or permitting it to be laid down flat onA a supporting base.
A feature ofthe invention resides in means for "pivotallysupporting the yoke Which operates'the display so that same may be rotated in a` position to turn the -display arci-ind on the hase, and' spring means for resilientl'y*holding the yoke against the base Whiclrprovides resilient `t'rictional contactbetW-eenthe yoke and the base to hold the same inaset position7 and also permitting theV yoke to be laid down in a manner so that the edge of the vsame Will' be carried over the center.
Figure 2'is a side view showing the calendar and support'in laidl down position.
Figure 3 is a. perspective view vof the sup porting yoke.
Figure 4 is a cross section of the supporting means` and yoke longitudinally 'through the yoke,v a' portion of the 'same `being broken Figure 5is a cross section longitudinally through the yoke and supporting means, a portion otw'hich isbroken away.
Figure 6 is a similarcross section to Figure 5 showing'theparts in laid down position.l
1n the drawingsl'have illustrated a per-- petual; calendar havingr a rotatable casing A- which is'adaptedto support a seriesof plates 10.within*the"same,'so as to disclose these plates toV indicate the. days.
The "casing'A is adapted `to be supported by the yoke B through the pins 11 at the upper end of the arms 12 of the yoke B. The
Serial No. 321,659.
yoke Bi is' formed from a single piece o sheet material and is provided with the upportionsI 15. These upwardly projecting rib portions form a transverse recess 16 under the same,*the purpose of Awhich Will be later described.
rl`he display casingl A is adapted to be snpported' in'y a manner so that it can be laid down as illustrated. in Figure 2. This is accomplished-by the mounting of the yoke B. Theyoke B isadapted to be engaged by the vpin 21 Which'isformed With ahead 17 on one end and whichk projects through the hole 18 in the base 19. 4'By means of a spring 2O which is held in the recess 22 of the base 19 and which is engaged by the Washer 23, the pin 21 is heldnnder spring tension with the cesses 16 on either. side of the recess 14 and transversely through the bottom portion 13. The recessed portion 1li-*is slotted at 24 transversely or in the direction of the translversely extending recesses 16 so that When it is desired the yoke B may he laid down as illustrated in Figures .2 and 6 with the shank of the pin 21 extending through the recess 24 and along the'groove or recess 16. In this position the edge 25 of the .yoke B is turned; over center oi the head 17 and the pin 21, and the spring .2O is compressed holding the yoke B under spring tension in locked down position as illustrated in Figures 2 and 6. In this. manner the display A can be laid down readily and held in this position so that the yoke B for the display A is locked down in spring tension position, which, under spring tension, permits the display A to be laid downlat on the base 19.
The y"pivotally resilient supporting vof the yoke B holds the display A under spring tension to the base 19 and permits the same to be turned when upright as Figure l into different positions on the pivotal point at the center of the yoke B of the head 17, and this permits the display to be adjustedinto any angular position in relation tothe base 19. Then when it is desired to lay it flat 'for shipping or packing or storing it away,
it is onlynecessary to fold the yoke over in the direction toward the horizontal recesses 16, locking the-yoke in laid down position as illustrated. Y f
In this manner `I provide a very simple inexpensive means of supporting the display A lwith the supporting standard B,wherein only a ksmall number ofy parts Vare employed, yet having the nature of being adjustable, held underr spring tension in any set position desired, andialso held under spring` tension' in locked down position so thatY the whole device lies d-own comparatively flat against the base 19.` In anarticle such vas a perpetual calendar wherein thevrotor A is'V used with they display discs 10, this is ali-important featureas it permits the same to be easily shipped, packed, or stored away when desired,'andyalso Vpermitsthe adjustment of the saine in relationl to the base.
VsoV
In accordancewith the patent statutes, Iv havedescribed my supporting means for ca -lendars,vr andA while I have illustrated the particular formation thereof, I desire to have Vit understood that this is onlyl suggestive of a means of' carrying out the principles ofv my invention, andV that4 variationsy may be made Awithin the scopeV of the following claims without departingffrom the spirit of my invention.-

Y QJAsuppo'rt for a Adisplay comprising a rod,a head formedon said rod, a suppo'rtii `yoke, a 'recessffoi' receiving said head in said Ayoke, a spring for holding said-rod under spring tension to abase, and transverse recessesY formed in said yoke for receiving thev center recess, thev shank portion of said rod Vbeing adapted to extend. from said vhead v 5. A mounting 4locked laid down position.
through said transverser recesses and spring means for'holding said rod in. engagement under spring tension Vwith said yoke, to pivotally and resiliently support said yoke in a manner to permit it to be adjusted and laid over to ylock the same 'under spring tension 'in laid o over position.
4. A support for a perpetual calendar display device comprising a yokeV formed from a singleA `piece fof sheet material, a recess formed centrally in said yoke having a transverse slot therein, transverse recesses eX- tending upward from'said yoke in an opposite direction to said central recess, a rod having a head formed lthereon being adapted to engage insaid recess .and resilient means for holdingsaidhead in said recess to support said yoke to a base in a manner to'permit the to be laid over and locked inlaid down position. o y Y I `,for rotatable displays including a yoke, means forV supportingsaid yoke in a manner-to permit the same to be rotated transversely vand Vto'perinitv said yoke toV be locked in laid down position, said means Vincluding a ball and socket formed in said yoke, afspriiig means for holding said bali and socket under lspring tension y'to a sup-A porting base' and shoulder means on said yoke to lock thesame iii-lai d-down position.
6. A mounting for a rotorof a perpetual calendar including a yoke, ball,v` socket and rodmeans for pivotally supporting said Yyoke comprising recesses formed in said yoke to receive said Vball andfrecesses for receiv- 4ing saidy rod,1 and resilient means for engaging said rodto support the same under spring tension to a base in a manner to permit said .yoke to beheld under spring tension in upright position or locked in laid down position with the display 'comparatively flat against said base. Y
i 7. A calendar .comprising arotoi', means operable by the rotation of said rotor fory indicating different numerals in the face of said rotor, means for Vresiliently supporting said rotor to aibase, including a ball and socket VjointftoA permit the rotor to be adjusted into Vany angular position on the top of the base, and shoulderrmeans for lockingsaid rotor in laid kdown position under spring tensionformedon said means for supporting said .rotor and adapted to engage lthe base.,-
8. Aperpetual calendar having' a rotor -witli numerals to indicate the day of the month thereinby the rotation of said rotor, ball vand socket means for. supporting' said rotor on a base, Sand' resilient means forengaging said balland socket inea-ns tocause said rotor to be held under spring tension to the. base in either upright position oi" in i-io'wiian risonan.
