TICKET" SUPPORTING BRACKET Fil ed Aug. 5, 1955 ATTORNEY Patented Aug. 25 1936 UNITED) STATES PATENT OFFICE 5 Claims.
This invention relates to brackets for use in supporting tickets of various kinds and classes, such for example as the price tickets indicating the sale price of merchandise arranged upon a 5 counter, shelf or other support; and the object of the invention is to provide a ticket supporting plate or body with an angularbracket portion for supporting said body in angular position with respect to a support and further to facilitate the mounting of 'the ticket supporting body within and between a partition stripor plate of a counter display and an adjacent wall of a channel in which said strip or plate is mounted; and with these and other objects in view, the invention consists in a device of the class and for the purpose specified, which is simple in construction, efficient in use and which is constructed as hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention is fully disclosed in the following specification of which the accompanying drawing forms a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by suitable reference characters in each of the views, and in which: 7
Fig. 1 is a crosssectional view through a part of a counter display showing one of my im-- proved devices coupled therewith.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the device shown in Fig. 1 detached.
Fig.3 is a transverse sectional view through a modified form of device which I employ.
Fig. 4 is a rear view of another form of device which I employ; and,
Fig. 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
In the construction shown in Figs. 1 and 2, I provide a rectangular ticket supporting plate or body Ill having upper and lower inwardly turned flanges II and I2 and inwardly curved side flanges I3 and M, the latter facilitating the insertion of a ticket upon the front face of the body l and at the same time preventing accidental displacement of the ticket therefrom. Welded or otherwise attached to the rear surface of the body Ill centrally of the upper portion thereof is a supporting plate l having a projecting and angularly extending end portion 16 which projects from the upper edge of the body and at an angle of substantially sixty degrees to the rear surface of the body In so as to extend said body with respect to a suitable support I! in a forwardly and downwardly directed position to expose the upper surface of the body In to the eye on a conventional counter display or a low shelf display. The support I! as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing has a longitudinal groove I8 in the upper surface thereof forming a channel in which the lower edge of a partition strip or plate or bordering strip or plate I 9 of a counter or shelf display is mounted. The groove i8 is arranged inwardly of the outer 5 edge or surface Ila of the support I! to form a flange portion 20 which constitutes one wall of the groove l8. In mounting the card holder or bracket in connection with the support II, the flange l6 thereof is inserted between the strip 10 I9 and the flange 20, being wedged into position, and this serves to maintain the outwardly and downwardly projecting angular position of the body ID as clearly illustrated in Fig. 1 of the drawing. The plate l5 including the flange por- 15 tion [6 thereof is composed of comparatively thin metal which facilitates the attachment to the support in the manner stated.
In Fig. 3 of the drawing, I have shown a slight modification in which a ticket supporting plate 20 or body 2| is employed which is of the same general construction as the plate ill, but may be slightly narrower than the plate ll). At 22,
I have shown a coupling plate having an angular flange 23 similar to the flange IE, but the 25 plate 22 is attached to the body 2| by one or more rivet couplings' 24 'which'consist simply in extending a part of the metal of the plate 22 through an opening in the body 2| and then flaring this metal outwardly as indicated at 25. Otherwise, the device shown in Fig. 3 is the same as that shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing.
In Figs. 4 and 5 of the drawing, I have shown another modification wherein a rectangular ticket supporting body 26 similar to the body It has an angular supporting flange 2! fashioned from the material of the upper edge of the plate. The flange 21, instead of being a solid wall construction, is preferably.- in the form of a U-shaped body having a large opening 21a formed therein with the ends 2'") of said body continuous with the upper edge of the body 26 or the outwardly extending top flange 28 thereof.
By reason of the construction of my improved ticket holding device, the same may be used to support and display price tickets in a window display or on the surface of shelves or counters, by simply placing the angularly extending flange I6, 23, 21 upon the surface which will support the ticket receiving plate of the device in an upwardly and backwardly inclined position. In this use, it will be desirable in some cases to widen or lengthen the angularly extending flange.
In the several forms of construction shown, the ticket supporting body proper will be maintained 55 or supported in an angular position substantially similar to that shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing, it being further understood that this particular kind and class of ticket holder is adaptable for use in connection with supports of the kind illustrated in Fig. 1, or wherein a groove portion is formed in the support in such position as to receive the projecting angular flange and to frictionally retain said flange in position to prevent accidental displacement of the supporting body. However, with the type of support shown in Fig. l of the drawing, the ticket supporting bracket may be quickly and easily attached and detached.
or may be moved longitudinally of the channel or groove l8 or the side wall or flange 20 thereof to properly position the bracket with I respect to articles arranged upon the support or directly in front of such support.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pattent, is:
1. A ticket supporting bracket of the class described comprising a rectangular ticket supporting body, means on the top, bottom and side edges of said body for retaining a ticket against accidental displacement therefrom, the upper edge portion of said body having centrally thereof a flat projecting flange extending outwardly and downwardly from said edge portion and arranged at an angle of substantially sixty degrees to the rear surface of said body for supporting said body at an angle of substantially sixty degrees with respect to a vertical support, said flange constituting a part of a plate secured to the rear surface of said body.
2. The combination with a counter having a groove adjacent one edge thereof in which a partition plate is mounted, of a ticket supporting bracket comprising a rectangular body, the upper edge of which is provided with an angularly projecting flange extending outwardly and downwardly from said edge and adapted to be inserted between said plate and one wall of the groove in said support in mounting said bracket on said support and to extend the bracket outwardly and downwardly at an angle of approximately sixty degrees with respect to said wall, and said flange constituting a part of a plate secured to said rectangular body.
3. A ticket supporting bracket of the class described comprising an oblong, rectangular plate, upper and lower edges of which are provided with inwardly turned flanges arranged in spaced relation to the front surface of said plate, the side edges of said plate terminating in forwardly flared ends which in combination with said flanges retain a card against displacement from the front surface of said plate, the rear surface of said plate having centrally of the upper edge thereof an outwardly and downwardly extending coupling flange arranged within the boundary edges of the rear surface of said plate, and said flange including a part secured to said rectangular plate.
4. A ticket supporting bracket of the class described comprising an oblong, rectangular plate, upper and lower edges of which are provided with inwardly turned flanges arranged in spaced rela tion to the front surface of said plate, the side edges of said plate terminating in forwardly flared ends which in combination with said flanges retain a card against displacement from the front surface of said plate, and the rear surface of said plate having centrally of the upper edge thereof an outwardly and downwardly extending coupling flange arranged at an angle of substantially 60 with respect to the rear surface of said plate.
5. A ticket supporting bracket of the class described comprising an oblong, rectangular plate, upper and lower edges of which are provided with inwardly turned flanges arranged in spaced relation to the front surface of said plate, the side edges of said plate terminating in forwardly flared ends which in combination with said flanges retain a card against displacement from the front surface of said plate, the rear surface of said plate having centrally of the upper edge thereof an outwardly and downwardly extending coupling flange arranged at an angle of substantially 60 with respect to the rear surface of said plate, and said flange having a part extending onto and secured to the rear surface of said rectangular plate.
