In the drawings, wherein f0r the purpose of illustrating the invention and wherein like reference charact'ers will be employed 130 designate like partsthroughout the Same, the reference character 5 Will generally be employed to designate a casing having cellular frame side members having vertical uprights 6 connected by transverse cast bars 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. 'I'he cellular side frarne members are connected at the top and bottom by cellular casting 12 as shown in Figure 7 having transverse east bars 13 and. 14 arranged in criss-cross fashion. The side frame members may be connected to the top and. bottom members by suitable nuts and bolts so that the cast feet 15 will project beyond the bottom member as clearly shown in Figures 1, 3, 4 and. 10.

After the side, top and bottom frame members have been assernbled by means of fastening devices the sheet metal side plates 16 may be secured the1"eto and held in place by vertical angle irons 17 as by means of nuts and bolts 18 and a cover 19 may be fitted upon the frame work so that the side flanges 20 overlap the side Walls 16 and vertical angle irons'l7. Fastening members such as screws 21 may be provided 1'or holding the cover in place.

Similarly, a bottom angle iron 22 maybe provided having a bottom flange which may be counected to the vertical angle irons 17 for the purpose of fi1*flshing the structure and pxoducing a.

completed cabinet. The front wall 23 is preferably formed of a piece of silvered glass presenting a mirror elfect having a portion thereof as at 24 unsilvered adapted to form a window behind which the display panels may be moved and illuminated for display purposes. Certain sections 01' portions of the silvered. panel 23 may be colored as a.t 25 to produce a modernistic efiect; and add 130 the attractiveness of the display sign.

The rear Wall 26 is movably held in place at the top and bottom by means of being received between the flange 20 of the cover 19 and the flange 27 cf the top and bottom frame mexnbers 12. It

will be noted that the angle irons 22 extending around the bottom edge 015 the casing forms a. seat for the lower portion of the rear wall 26 and by lifting upwardly upon the rear wall 26 by means of a band hold 28, the lower edge of the remox'1able rear Wall 26 may be freed from between the flange of the angle bar 22 and the flange 27 formed onthe lower frame piece 12; Louvers 29 may be provided in the rear wall for the purpose of ventilation and allowing the escape of heat produced by the electric motor and illuminating means.

The front Wall 23 may be formed of glass and has its edges received in a similar fashion es the rear wall such as between the marginal flange 27 of the top and bottom members and angle Iren 22. If desired, a packing strip 30 may be interposed b'etween the fiange 20 cf the 110D wall 19 and the angle bar 22 so that shocks retzeived by the easing will not fracture er breakthe gla.ss freut panel 23.

Each of the supporting feet 15 may be provided with rubber cushions 31 held in place by friction and should lt be desired to connect the supporting fest 15 to a rigid support such as the trunk rack 33 of a motor vehlcle 34 shown in Figure 2 each supporting foot 15 may be provided with a screw threaded bore 32 for receiving a fastening holt 35. The cabinet er casing may be fastened securely to other forms of supports such as tables er the like by 4 employing the same fastening means extending into the screw threaded openings 32 formed in each of the supporting feet.

Journalled at opposite ends of the transverse member 8 formed in the side frame member 6 in bearings are rotary shafts 41 provided with sprocket wheels 42 rigidly secured theret0. sprocket wheels 42 are al'ranged on opposite ends of the shafts 41 so that there will be provided a set of sprocket wheels 42 in the front portlon o! the casing and a Set of sprocket wheels in the 1ear portion of the casing adjacent the upper end thereof.

J ournalled in bearings 43 and 44 formed on one of the lower cross bars 10 of the pre-cast side framernember 6 are rotary shafts 45 and 46 respectively. 'Ihe bearing 44 is provided with an eccentric 47 for the purpose of adjusting the rotary shaft 46 t-o incr'ease or decrease the tension on the sprocket ehain which Will be hereinafter more fully described. In order to hold the eccentric 47 in an adjusted position, a sei; screw 48 ls pro vided for this purpose.

Secured to opposlte ends 0f the shafts 45 are sprecket wheels 49 while similarly arranged sprocket wheels are secured rigidl y to opposite end-s of the shaft 46.

Also journalled in bearings 5lformed in the side frame mernbers 6'0n the transverse bars 9 is a shaft 52 having rigidly secured to opposite ends thereof sprocket wheels 53. In addition, the shaft 52 is provided witn a sprocket wheel 54 held in place in a rigid manner, adapted to= receivepower frorn a suitable motor.

Passing over the sprocket wheels 42, 49, 50, and 53 is a pair of endless chains 55 alter the fashion shown in Figure 10 and saicl sprocket chains 55 may be rotated by means o1 the sprocket wheel 54 upon the shaft 52 which is connected to a. sprocket wheel 56 secured on a shaft 57 wl'nch extends out of a reduction geari'ng box 58 by means of an endlesssprocket 59. An electric mator 60 may have its arm'ature shaft 61 connected to the drive shaft 62 of the reducti'ongearing 58 by means of a couple 63 and said electric motor 60 and reduction gearing 58 may be carried by a floating motor support 64 resillently carriedbythe side frame members 66 by means of brackets 65 hav'ing i-nwardly extending arms 66 so that one end 67 of a seil spring 68 is connected thereto and the opposite end of the coil spring 69 is connected to the plate er motor suppdrt 64. In this man-- ne1, rotary moti'on is imparted to the rotary shaft 52 in a silent and even manner whichcauses the sprocket chain 55 to travelover the sprocket wheels 42, 49, 50 and 53 in a slow and even travelling motion.

The position and arrangement of the sprocket wheels and sprockt chains is very similar to the form of the invention shown in the George F. Reed Patent N0Q 1872607 issued August 16, 1932.

An important feature of the invention resides in the manner of arranging the display panels 70 which are preferably formed of a flexible transparent material and which may have printed. '01 otherwise secured thereon designs or ad-vertising matter, It is intend.ed to have a plurality of transparent display panels 70 having longitudinal marginal strips 71 formed of a springy material preferably Swedish steel and rivets 72 may extenol through the marginal strips 71 and marginal edges cf the display panels and. said. rivets may be arranged in a staggered manner and may further be formed smaller than the openings in the lower eolge of the display panels 70 and the marginal strips '71, so that lateral play may be produced between the parts. The end portions of the transparent display sheets 70 are preferably cut on a bias as at 73 to form flap-like end portions adapted to be received between hinge leaves 74 which are U-shaped in cross-section and are provided with enlarged pintle receiving loops 75. Rivets 76 may connect the hinge leaves 74 with the marginal strips 71.

Extending through the pintle receiving loops 0f the hinge members is a rod 77 having an axial hure 78 formed in the opposite ends thereof and each of the bores 78 is adapted to receive the reduced portion of a pin 79 formed on the end. of one of the sprocket chain axles 80- as clearly shown in Figure 12 and interposed between the reduced portion 79 and the axle 80 is an annular boss 81 adapted to engage the inner edge of the sprocket chain links55 andsimultaneously the outer end of the pintle rod '77Q It is obvious, that by separating the sprocket chains 55,. that is moving the same away from each other, that the pintle rods 77 may be withdrawn from the reducecl pins 79 for the purpose of removing the panels 70 and their enc;losing frames '71. It is tobe understood that the free ends of the panels 70 are slipped in between the hinge Ieaves 74 and are not fastened laut are allowed to move relative thereto. The connection constitutes a means of guiding the free ends of the transparent panels 70 rather thanproviding a securing means theretor.

It will be noted that-the trans'parent panels 70: and frames 71 are secured. to the endless carrier chains 55 in muCh the sarne manner as the transparent panels shown in the George F. Reed Patent N0. 1872,607 and in addition to the guide means or pirrtle rode 77 for connecting the transparent panels to the endless chalns, there is provided side resilient clips which connect the marginal metal strips 71 to the sprocket chain 55 in a manner which will allow relative movement between the strips and chain without tearing or otherwise breaking the transparent panels 70. The resilient conneotion cornprises a-t spaced intervals angle members 82 having studs 83 provided with reduced screw threacled portions 84. The studs 83 are adapted to extend through evelets 72 which connect the marginal strips 71 wlth the transparent panels 70 and it will be noted, that the openings formed in the eyelets or rivets 72 are of a greater diameter than the over-all dimension of the boss er stud 83 so that a limited amount of 'play may be provided and whereby the transparent panels will be floatingly carried by the sprocket chain 55. Threaded on the upper screw threaded reduced portion 84 ofthe stud 83 is a nut 85 to secure the bracket 82 in place and said bracket 82 is provided with a portion 86 Which extends in'a parallel plane with the side strip 71. The free end 013 the parallel portion 86 extends upwardly as at 87 and is proviclecl with spaced openings for receiving elongated axles 88 which also form pins fbrthe connecting links 015 the sprocket chain 55 as clearly shown in Figures 13, 14 and 15. The Iree ends of the axles 88 are connected by means of a link 89 which is substantially similar to one of the side links cf the sprocket chain 55 and said link is held in place by means of a chain Clip 90. Interposed between the upturned end 87 of the carrier bracket 82 and theconnecting link 89 are coil springs 91 which encircle the elongated axles or studs 88. 'I'his construction allows the brackets 82 to moverelative to the sprocket chain 85 as shown in Figure 7 in a distorted manner which is produced when certairi of saicl panels 70 are passing over the sprocket wheel 42, 49, 50 and. 53. Figure 18 shows an elongated axle 88 having a reduced portion 88a which connects the links of the chain When certain of the transparent panels 70 pass over the sprocket wheels as above mentionecl, they become distorted and the bracket 82 will pull away from the chain 55 against the aotion of the coil springs 91. Direct pull may be overcorne by means cf the ooil springs 91 in addition to longitudinal stresses or strains which produce the disarrangement shown in Figure 17. Under these conditions, only one of the coil springs 91 will compress while the other will remain in its normal position.

In Figure 19 is shown in detail, one of the pintle rods 77 which is shown in cross section so that the transparent panels 70 may have the free ends secured therebetween as at 70a. It is intended to form the hinge leaves 74 With pintle reeeiving loops 75 arranged and spaced alternately at the top and bottom so that the entlre frame may be removed from the carrier chain and another frame substituted carrying different aolvertising matter without altering the frame 01 the adjacent hinge leaves 74 along with the pintle receiving loops '75.

Supported by the sicle frame members 6 and positioned directly in back of the unsilvered portion 44 01 the mirror 23 is a rectangular frame member 93 clearly shown in Figure 9 in perspective. The frame member 93 is provided with oppositely directed arms 94 having openings 95 for receiving fastening elements such as screws 01' the like. The rectangular frame 93 is adapted to define a window so that the transparent display panels may be clearly visible from the exterior of the casing. Formed integral with the oppositely extending arms 94 of the rectangular frame 93 and extending inwardly therefrom are angle brackets 96 having offset portions 97 provicled with apertures'98 whereby a mirror or reflec-tor 99 1nay be secured to the offset portions 97 by means of machine screws 100 extending therethrough and passing through the openings 98. The refiector 99 is provided witn longitudinal angular surfaces 101, 102, 103 and 104 for the purpose Cf directing the rays of light emitted from electric light bulbs 105 positionecl as shown in Figure 10 between the respective angular Walls 102, 103 and 101 and 104. The light emitted from the bulbs 105 is projected through an opaque panel 106 where the light is diffused and illuminates one of the transparent panels 70 which Will be positioned in back of the rectangular frame er window 93 as when being carried by the carrier chain 55. The opaque panel 106 may be fastened in place upon the offset portion 97 of the rectangular frame 93, being mounted between the ofiset portion 97 and the reflector 99 so that the screws 100 will securely clamp the opaque material 106 therebetween. At opposite sides of the rectangular frame 93 there may be provided an angle strap'l08 having its free ends 109 securely retained in place by the screws 100. 'Ihe angle straps 108 at opposite ends of the reflector 99 1nay retain the electric lamp bulbs 105 in their spaced positions and at the Same time may folm a brace for the reflectorv 99.

One of the side frame members 6 is provicled with a cast portion 110 including a downwardly extending portion 111 projecting downvvardly. from the Journal 51 and branching into arms 112 which connect to the transverse frame bar 10 thereby forming a pocket 113 at opposite ends of which are cut outs 114. Received within the opening 113 is an electric switch 115 of a double type having a set of contacts 116 to Which may be connected line wires 117 for feeding current to the electric bulbs 105. 'Ihe bulbs may be connectecl in series as by means of a lead line 118. The svvitch casing 115 is also provided with contacts 119 having lead lines 120 which may connect to the electric motor 60. Power is suppliecl through the switch housing 115 by means of a cable 121 adapted to be connected to a suitable source of current capable of illuminating the bulbs 105 and operating the motor 60. The svvitch casing 115 partially extends through an opening 122 formed in one of the side walls 116 and saicl switch casing 115 is provided With operating buttons 123 whereby the motor or electric bulbs may be operated selectively.

Formed in one of the side Walls 16 is an Opening adjacent the electric bulb 105 which is adaptecl to be closed by a cover plate 124 held in place by suitable machine screws 125. By removing the cover plate 124, the electric bu1bs 105 may be easily reached for the purpose of repair 01' 11 desired, the reflector 99 may be wiped and clea.ned as well as the opaque glass or plate 106.

It is to be understood, that various changes in the shape, size and arrangement 015 pa.rfs may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope cf the sub-joined claims, and that the form herewith shown and described is to be taken as the preferred embodiment of the same.
