Description
Dec. 24, 1935. J. slRcA 2,025,478
SUPPORT Filed March 19, 1935 I nventor Patented Dec. 24, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
The present invention relates to new and useful improvements in supports for holding articles of manufacture, advertising and other cards, etc., and has for one of its important objects to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a support of the aforementioned character embodying a novel construction through the medium of which the article or object to be held may be expeditiously but securely mounted therein and removed therefrom when desired.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a support of the aforementioned character which will be comparatively simple in construction, strong, durable, highly 'efiicient and reliable in use, compact, and which may be manufactured at low cost.
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, wherein:
The figure is a perspective V ew of a support constructed in accordance with the present invention.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, it will be seen that the embodiment of the invention which has been illustrated is formed from a single length of suitable resilient wire an intermediate portion of which is bent or formed to provide a split or substantially C-shaped base I.
At the open end of the base I, the wire is bent upon itself, as at 2, and then extends upwardly and inwardly in a manner to provide resilient crossed arms 3.
The resilient, crossed arms 3 terminate, at their upper ends, in substantially rectangular, forwardly projecting loops constituting coacting gripping jaws 4 which are adapted to receive and retain the article to be supported therebetween. As clearly shown in the drawing, the jaws 4 are oppositely curved to assure a firm grip on 5 the article.
It is thought that the manner of using the device will be readily apparent from a consideration of the foregoing. To mount an article on the support, it is only necessary to press the lower 10 portions of the resilient arms 3 inwardly, thus swinging the upper ends of said arms away from each other in a manner to spread the jaws 4 to permit the insertion of the article therebetween. The arms 3 are thenreleased and spring out- 15 wardly, thus bringing the jaws 4 together for clamping the article in position.
It is believed that the many advantages of a support or holder constructed in accordance with the present invention will be readily understood, 20 and although a preferred embodiment of the invention is as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction may be resorted to which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:
A support of the class described formed from a single length of wire having an intermediate portion formed to provide a base, said base being open at one side, the wire being bent upon itself 3 at the open side of the base, crossed arms extending upwardly from the bent back portions of the Wire, and loops on the upper ends of the arms constituting jaws adapted to grip an article therebetween.
