Application August 22, 1931, Serial No. 558,699 2 Claims. (01. 211-71) This invention relates to display fixtures and is particularly adapted to be used for the display of articles that may bepacked in boxes, cartons, or similar containers, such as cigars, candies and The principal object of this invention is to provide a display fixture that is so constructed as to permit the showing of merchandise at an angle whereby the contents of the containers may be easily seen.
Another object of this'invention is to provide a display fixture that has means for adjustably locating the shelves or container supports to accommodate the size of the container or merchandise to be displayed, the entire assembly being so designed as to permit the structure 'to be quickly erected, or easily taken apart.
A further object of this invention is to provide a display fixture that, by reason of its simplicity may be cheaply manufactured in various sizes without change in structural detail and that can be used to capacity by merely adding or removing shelves according to thesize of the container or type of merchandise displayed thereon.
The improvement claimed is hereinafter fully set forth:
In the accompanying drawings; Figure 1 is a perspective view of the present invention, the dotted lines showing cigar boxes displayed thereon; Fig. 2 isa side elevation partly in section showing the method of assembling the device;
-Fig. 3 is a perspective view'of the shelf or container support clamp with the container clipattached; Fig. 4, a perspective view of thedevice showing adjustable shelves thereon; and Fig. 5, a bottom view of said shelves. 7
In the practice of the invention as herein exemplified, the inclined shelf supporting member 1 comprises two equi-spaced strips of suitable material mounted at the lower front end on a base member 2 and secured in. position by a flush bolt 3, the upper rear end of said member 1 being mounted in position on a standard 4 and secured thereto by a flush bolt 3.
The standard 4 and the transversely grooved base member 6 and base member 2 are held rigidly in position by a bolt 3 at the rear of the assembly. The front transversely grooved base member '7 being secured to member in like manner by a bolt 3.
The shelves or container supporting members 11 which are transversely grooved (grooves not shown) are secured to the lower face of the inclined supporting member 1 by means of a clamp 8 having a downward extending bolt member 12 said clamp passing between the sections of the inclined support and are held in position by means of thumb nut 9.
A box or container clamplO is hingedly secured to the'clamp 8 for the purpose of holding a box or container rigidly to the side of the'supporting member 1 as shown in Figure 1, the dotted lines indicating the manner in which box is held in position.
When it may be found desirable to use aregulation shelf, either at an angle or in a level position, a shelf 11' as is shown in Fig. 5, is clamped to the inclined supporting member 1 by means of ascrew 17, said screw being mounted in angle pieces 16 on either side of the opening 19 in the rear edge of the shelf, said opening 19 being reenforced by battens 14 which incidently strengthen the shelf and prevent twist due to warping. A spacing member 15 is provided in the opening 19 to hold the inclined shelf supporting members in spaced relation to each other. The under side of the shelf at the front edge and sides is finished with a molding strip 18 so as to present a neat and uniform appearance.
Telescopic construction may be used in making the base member 2 and supporting member 4 so as to permit the inclined shelf supporting member 1 to be inclined at various angles to meet specific requirements of space or position in which merchandise is to be shown. The various means employed in telescopic adjustments such as tubes and slides are so well known in the arts that it is believed unnecessary to incorporate them in the drawings. I
The structure as shown permits both types of shelves to be used in combination or independently as may be desired and the advantages of the device for counter or window display will be so obvious to those skilled in the art as to require no further description.
What is claimed as the invention and desired to be secured by Letters Patents, is:
1. A display fixture comprising: a single horizontal base member having a laterally extending stabilizing member secured to one end thereof; a verticalmember secured to the base member forming a right angle; dual inclined plane members oppositely disposed on the base member at its front end, the top end of said dual plane members being secured to the opposite sides of the upper end of the vertical member; shelves adjustably mounted to the underside of said plane members by means of a clamp, the lugs of which rest upon the top face of the inclined members, the body of said clamp passing between the inclined members and through a suitable opening in the shelf and held in position by a winged nut.
2. Same as claim 1 and; clamping means hingedly secured to the shelf clamp to hold a package securely to the shelf and inclined member.
