JEWELRY TRAY Filed Oct. 19. 19:51
' INVEN OR 9 I /8 11 Fiji fifdmanklficr 1/ %7 Q BY #17 A ATTORNEY S Patented Aug. 23, 1932 UNITED STATES ERDMAN W. BERG, OF FRASER, MICHIGAN JEWELRY TRAY Application filed October 19, 1931.
My invention relates to merchandise display devices and has particular reference to a tray for displaying articles of jewelry such as watch bracelets.
An object of the present invention is to provide a jewelry tray which embodies a plurality of panels for holding the bracelets in position for display and arranged so that any one or more panels may be removed, thus making it unnecessary to remove the entire tray from the show case.
Further the invention provides a tray of this character wherein the panels are formed with longitudinally extending grooves which serve to maintain the articles in outstretched condition so they can be readily observed and readily removed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a jewelry tray which has the appearance of the conventional tray, but is provided with the removable panels which can be conveniently removed and replaced to facilitate the sale of the jewelry.
With the preceding and other objects and advantages in mind the invention consists in the novel combination of elements, constructions, and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter specifically referred to, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein m Figure 1 is a top plan view of a jewelry tray constructed in accordance with my invention;
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is an elevation of one of the jewelry retaining panels removed from the tray;
Fig. 4 is a perspective of the same, and
Fig. 5 is a transverse section through one of the panels.
Referring to the invention in detail a tray is provided which consists of a rectangular bottom 5 upstanding parallel side walls or rails 6 and upstanding parallel end rails 7.
For the purpose of retaining articles of jewelry such as wrist watch bracelets etc., a plurality of identical panels 8 of rectangular configuration is provided. These panels are of such dimensions as to permit a predetermined number of them to be snugly fitted Serial No. 569,562.
within the rails 6 and 7. The outer face of each panel is formed with a plurality of transversely extending parallel ribs 9 which stop short of the longitudinal edges of the panels and define longitudinally extending seats or grooves 10 for the reception of the watch bracelet-s. To provide for the different cross sectional widths of the various bracelets the grooves 10 are of various widths. As shown the bottoms of the grooves or seats are 00 flush with the upper surfaces of the panels so that with the bracelets retained therein their extremities will project slightly beyond the grooves and lie directly upon the panels. Thus not only will the bracelets be held against lateral shifting but they will be held against longitudinal shifting as well by reason of their end links bridging the spaces between each two adjacent ribs. It will therefore be seen that it will be practically impossible to dislodge the bracelets without completely inverting the panel. In other words the panel can be held in various angular positions so that the bracelets can be inspected from various angles without any danger of them falling therefrom.
To give the panels the desired finish they are covered with velvet or other suitable material 11. Also a tab 12 is provided at one end of each panel which facilitates removal so of the same from the tray. The several panels arranged in the tray give an appearance of a single or interrupted panel.
What I claim is:
A display device for elongated articles having end cross pieces provided with portions projecting transversely beyond the side edges ofthemain portions of the articles, said device comprising a tray of considerable area having a bottom and parallel side and end rails, and a plurality of panels filling up the entire tray, any of the panels being removable to display the articles carried thereon without moving the tray or disturbing the remaining panels, each of the panels further having longitudinally extending spaced ribs on their display faces which stop short of the edges of the panels, the end cross pieces of the confined articles being outside the grooves between the ribs and resting upon the unribbed faces of the panels, the longitudinal faces of each two ribs serving to retain the articles against lateral shifting and the ends of each two adjacent ribs being in alignment with the transversely projecting portions of the end cross pieces of the articles and serving to retain the articlesagainst longitudinal shifting.
