June 20, 1939. H.KA.IJIENK1Ns v 363,093
DISPLAY FIXTURE Filed Sept. 22, 1937 2 Sheets-Sheet l ATTORNEYS Patented June 20, 1939 UNITED STATES eATENT OFFICE 3 Claims.
The invention relates to a display fixture and more especially to a display stand or table. y
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a fixture of this character, wherein the same involves a table carrying a removable top section and in this table is a convertible rack enabling the display of merchandise in a unique and selected manner, the fixture being usable in mercantile establishments for the display of merchandising goods.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a fixture of this character, wherein the construction thereof is novel in its entirety and is susceptible of use in mercantile establishments yfor the display of varying kinds and conditions of merchandise, being readily adjustable for this purpose.
A further object of the invention is the provin sion of a device of this character, which is simple in its construction, unique in its make-up, thoroughly reliable and efficient in operation, neat in appearance, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the inu Vention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which disclose the preferred and modied forms of embodiment of the invention and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective View of the fixture constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional View taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 4 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 3 is a bottom plan View with the legs of the fixture removed.
Figure 4 is a plan view with the top removed .and partly broken away.
Figure 5 is a vertical transverse sectional view showing the legs removed.
Figure 6 is a perspective View of one of the legs of the fixture.
Figure 7 is a perspective view of a modified form of construction.
Figure 8 is a view similar to Figure 7 showing the fixture in an adjusted position.
Figure 9 is a view similar to Figure 8 with the legs removed.
Figure 10 is a view similar to Figure 9 showing a further modification of the fixture.
Figure 11 is a view similar to Figure 10 showing a further modification.
Similar reference characters indicate corregenerally at A involves a body frame Ill having at the corners thereof short leg formations provided with leg sockets II partially strap-like for receiving the male tenons I2 of separable relatively long supporting legs I3. This frame I0 has a permanent bed I4 provided marginally at three' sides thereof with an upstanding flange-like rim I5 while the remaining non-rimmed side of the bed I4 has swingingly connected thereto a rack hereinafter fully described.
The rack involves the sections I6 and I1, rel.
spectively, these being intertted with each other following the curvature cut I8 and are swingably connected by pivot pins I9 in their interfitted relation to each other while the section I6 is connected by hinges to the non-rimmed side 2l of the bed Ill. These sections I6 and Il when in a flat condition in the same plane with each other are housed within a pocket 22 formed by the rim I5 on the bed I4 in the latter.
On the section Il at the under side thereof is loosely coupled at 23 a combined handle and prop 24 workable through a clearance 25 in the bed I4, being suspended beneath the bed when the sections I6 and I'l are lying fiat within the pocket 22 and when the sections I6 and I1 are raised and adjusted in a folded relation to each other the member 24 can function as a prop giving the required slant thereto and engageable with the bed I4 at the upper face thereof. The sections I6 and Il constitute a rack for displaying merchandise while the pocket 22 is susceptible of carrying merchandise therein and for displaying the same.
Telescopically fitted over the bed I4 and the rim I5 thereof when the sections I6 and I1 are lowered into the pockets 22 is a removable top or cover section 2G so that the fixture is convertible into a table or stand.
In Figures 'l to 10 inclusive, of the drawings, there are shown modifications wherein the hingedly connected sections 21 and' 28 are adapted for interiitting with each other while the section 28 carries the arms 29, one of these sections 2l being hinged at 3l to the bed 32 while the section 23 is free thereof but is propped thereon.
In Figure l1k of the drawings there is shown a further modification wherein the section 33 is hinged at 34 and adjustably connected with this section is a brace 35, which is swingable at 36 on the stand, and the section 31 intertted and pivoted at 38 with the section 33, can swing into engagement with'a keeper groove or channel 39 in the upper face of the bed 40, the bed 32 being also provided with a keeper channel or groove 4| corresponding to the channel or groove 39 enabling the convertible racking of the sections 21 and 28 and 33 and 31, respectively, these sections just mentioned being also pocketed within the iixture or stand when not in use.
The merchandise or goods to be displayed is carried by the section constituting the rack hereinbefore set forth.
With reference to the member 24, it can be used as a handle to lift the sections from the pocket within the stand by pushing upwardly upon such member beneath the bed of the stand and thereby raising the sections from within the pocket of the latter.
The legs I3 are removable so that the height of the stand can be changed as should be apparent from Figures 1, 2, 5, 9, 10 and 11 of the drawings. Y
What is claimed is:
1. A display xture comprising a body frame formed with a permanent bed, a rack having sections swingably intertting each other, hinges swingably connecting one of said sections to the body frame, the other of said sections being cut and shaped for eiecting a reversible prop for the section hinged to the frame and engageable with the permanent bed when in reversed positions to the said hinged section, and a swingable weight element carried by the reversible prop section and movable through the permanent bed when said sections are in the same plane with each other and resting flat against the said permanent bed.
2. A display xture comprising a body frame formed with a permanent bed, a rack having sections swingably interfitting each other, hinges swingably connecting one of said sections to the body frame, the other of said sections being cut and shaped for effecting a reversible prop for the section hinged to the frame and engageable with the permanent bed when in reversed positions to the said hinged section, a swingable weight element carried by the reversible prop section and movable through the permanent bed when said sections are in the same plane with each other and resting at against the said permanent bed, and a rim on the body frame for pocketing the rack when the sections are in the same plane with each other and resting flat upon the permanent bed of said body frame.
3. A display fixture comprising a body frame formed with a permanent bed, a rack having sections swingably intertting each other, hinges swingably connecting one of lsaid sections to the body frame, the other of said sections being cut and shaped for effecting a reversible prop for the section hinged to the frame and engageable with 'the permanent bed when in reversed positions to l the said hinged section, a swingable weight element carried by the reversible prop section and movable through the permanent bed when said sections are in the same plane with each other and resting flat against the said permanent bed, and a rim on the body frame for pocketing the rack when the sections are in the same plane with each other and resting nat upon the permanent bed of said body frame, the said permanent bed having a seat for the engagement of the reversible prop section when in propping relation to the other section of said rack.
