DISPLAY STAND AND SHIPPING CASE Filed Oct. 15, 1931 l atented Mar. 1 4, 1933 UNITED STATES GEORGE E. EvnRIr'r, or nnca i'run, G ORGIA DISPLAY STAND AND SHIPPING CASE Application filed October 15, 1931. Serial No. 569,076.
Generically this invention relates to display stands but more especially it isdirected to such a device wherein the same is initially employed as a shipping case. 1 1
One of the principal objects of this inven tion is the provisionof a displayfstand for seed packages, cards, and the like, initially constituting a shipping case for such articles 10 and when erected as a display stand, adapted the stock, to which ready access may behad for purposes of sale or display replenishment, as desired. a
An important object of this invention is the provision ofa device of this character comprising a combination display cabinet and shipping case formed on its respective exterior wall surface with anchor means, one
of said walls constituting a closure or door, a plurality of pocket or d1splay conta1ner elements for detachable connection with said anchor means, said pocket elementsadapted to be nested in compact form, whereby the be expeditiously packed in said cabinet, when the same is initially employed as a shipping case and when used as a storage space.
With these and other objects in view, which will become apparent as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accom- 'panying drawing, in'which like characters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several figures, of which:
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of my improved display device and shipping case;
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary longitudinal tion of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a crosssection taken on the line 33 of Fig 1;
Fig. 4 is a detail View of one of the pockets and a portion of the supporting wall;
5 is a fragmentary sectional view showing a modified form of anchor means; and p r Fig. 6 is a view of a modified form of pocket and anchor engaging means.
The display devices for seed packages and to additionally serve as a storage space for same together with the display goods maythe like with which I am familiar have proven generally deficient, being too cumbersome, costly to produce, diflicult to maintain in replenished condition, etc., and it Was to overcome such deficiencies, facilitate han dling of the goods, reduce-cost of production, and lessen. expense and inconvenience of transportation of the goods and device, by providing a display device formed with slots in its respective side surfaces, one of said sides forming a hinged closure, and a plurality of pocket package display containers having slot engaging means for'supporting the same, said elements adapted to be packed in nested or compact form for shipment, said device initially constituting a shipping case for the pockets and goods,
and when operatively setup, a display stand,
that I designed the device forming the sub- V l ject matter of this invention.
In the illustrated embodiment characterizing this invention there is shown a dis play device and shipping case 1 having suitably formed in the exterior surface of each of its respective sides 2 a pair of longitudinally extending angle slots 3. Said display stand or container is also formed with top 4 and, bottom 5. One of said sides is hinged.
ly secured to its adjacent side by hinges 6,
additionally constituting a door 7. A plu- O rality of display pocket containers .8 are adapted to be suitably mounted on the re;
spective sides'2 as and for a'purpose hereinafter more fully appearing.
In view of the fact that each of the pockets are identical, for brevity of description, only one will be described in detail. Pocket container 8 is preferably formed from a one piece blank of sheet metal bent to form front section 9, side sections 10, lateral flanges 11 9 formed at the free edges of said side sec r tions, and bottom 12 form'ed at right angles to front section9. The sidesectionslO are wider at their upper edges than at their lower so that when flanges 11- are slidably positioned in slots 3 as shown in Fig-"3, front ly at an angle with respect to said side 2,
j section9 will extend upwardly and outward- 7 provided with detachably supportedon cleats 15 or other" played, as will be clear without'further discussion. In order to increase the display area of the goods, front section 9 is cut out at its upper end as at 13.
Owing to the formation and resilient construction of pockets 8 they are adapted to fit one within the other or nested in compact form and when placed within the device together with packages of seeds or other goods to be displayed, door 7 may be screwed or otherwise secured in closed position,-whereplayed may be removed from the interior of the device and placed'in the containers 8 for display as will be clear without further explanation.
The interior of container 1 is preferably. a series of spaced shelves 1 1 suitable elements suitably secured to the in ner surfaces of opposite sides 2.
m x the innel surface of said door 7 is pro vided Wltli' angle slots 16 similar to slots 3 adapted to similarly receive flanges 11 of containers 8 whereby a reserve supply of said-containers when not in use may beheld,
the width of shelves lpermitting door 7 .to close, as will be apparent.
It is apparent that the various shelves 1 1 may support packages of different kinds of seeds, the edge of each shelf bearing the name or suitable indicia to indicate the different goods in question. It will thus be seen that storage of the goods and the pockets not in use may be effect-ed within the container and from which expeditious replenishment of the display containers and sale of goods from the stock may be expeditiously effected, g
In some instances it may be desirable to provide a slightly modified form of anchor means as shown in Fig. 5 comprising a pair .of' parallel longitudinally extending substantially -shaped track members 17 secured to the outer surface of sides 2a. by screws or other fastening elements 18 and prov ding grooves 8a adapted to receive flanges 11a of poo ret containers 8a similar to grooves 3 above described.
A'further modification may be found expedient without departlng from the scope of the invention by forming pockets 8?) with a.
From the above it is apparent that I have designed. a unique, simple, inexpensive, combination display device and shipping case, having detachable display containers adapted to be shipped or stored therein, said'de- Viceadapted to be constructed from any desirable material, such as wood, fiber, metal, or the like ,one reducing the cost incident to the production, packing and shipping of the device and goods, and at the same time, presenting a pleasing appearance, and efficient-for the purposes intended.
Although in practice I have found that the form of my invention illustrated in the accompanying drawing and referred to in the above description as the preferredcem bodiment is the most efficient and practical;
yet realizing the conditions concurrentwith the adoption of my device will necessarily vary, I desire to emphaslze that various minor changes 1n details of construction,
proportion and arrangement of parts, may
be resorted to within the scope of the appended claims without departing from or sacrificing any of the principles of this invention. c
