NECKTIE RACK Filed June 23', 19:58
Patented Aug. 1, 1939 PATENT OFFICE NECKTIE RACK George L. Pilliodand Alfred 0. Judson, Swanton,
Ohio, assignors to The Pilliod Cabinet Company, Swanton, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio Application June 23,
i 7 Claims;
This invention relates to article display or holding racks, and particularly to such a rack adapted particularly to hold neckties, but may be. used for other article.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a simple, efilcient and inexpensive ar-- ticle holding rack of the character described, which has a pair of laterally opposed parallel bar members held in yielding coacting relation to grip one or more neckties, or similar articles, therebetween, the bar members being adapted to have the articles inserted therebetween from either end thereof.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, and from the accompanying drawing illustrating the same, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view, in set-up usable position, of a rack embodying the invention; Fig.
sition shown in dotted lines; Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 in Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is a rear elevation of one end portion thereof, and Fig. 5 is a rear perspective view of one end portion of the rack showing a different manner of attaching the spring wire members to the body member.
Referring to the drawing, and particularly to Figs. l'to 4, I0 is a back plate orboar-d adapted to be placed against and attached toa wall, or other suitable support, by screws II and being narrow in vertical dimension and of a considerable length horizontally. It is found that eighteen to twenty inches is a desirable length for a necktie rack.
The back member I0 is equipped with two U- shaped bar holders l2, which straddle said memher with their loop or cross portions l2 disposed crosswise of the member at the rear thereof and held seated freely in respective cross-sections I 3 by staples l4. The holders l2 are made of spring wire, and their legs I? extend forward from the back member [0 and have their free ends turned inward to form axially opposed pintles l2 for fitting into sockets IS in the outer side edges of a pair of opposed parallel article gripping bars l'li.
The bars [6 are of thin slat form, preferably longer in length than the back member Hi, with their inner edges yieldingly coacting and adapted to grip neckties H, or other articles, therebetween. The adjacent edges of the bars are beveled at their ends to provide tapering entrance spaces [8 to facilitate insertion of articles between the bars.
The spring holders [2 may be held at right 55 angles, or in forwardly projecting relation to 2 is a top edge view thereof, with its collapsed po- 1938, Serial No. 215,367
the back member In by the upper legs thereof seating in respective recesses [9 in the top edge of said member, or the holders may be raised to remove the legs thereof from said recesses, thus permitting the holders and bars to be swung into 5, collapsed or folded relation to the body member,
as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 2.
In the form shown in Fig. 5, the spring holder members, which are designated 20 therein, have the loop portions thereof provided with trans- 1o versely extending loop or tongue portions 21 disposed at right angles to the plane of projection of the legs of the holder and adapted to seat inrespective recesses 22 provided in the rear. side of the back board or member 23. The loops 2| are secured flat within such recesses by the coaction of the member with awall or other support, when secured thereto. This manner of attaching the holder springs to the back member causes them to be held in .set-uprelation to such memher when the member is in position against a wall and enables them to be knocked down or collapsed with respect to the back member when such member is removed from a wall, as is apparent.
It is apparent that we have provided a simple, 5 inexpensive and attractive form of article holding rack of a type particularly adapted for the holding of neckties; that the bars l6 are yieldingly held in gripping relation by the spring holder I2 or 20, as the case may be, and that said bars, when separated, provide a prolonged space therebetween, in which a plurality of neckties or similar articles may be inserted and yieldingly held by the spring pressed gripping action of the bars. It is also apparent that the adjacent edges of the barsare smooth and parallel so that articles may be forcefully moved lengthwise of the bars when the bars are in gripping engagement therewith.
We wish it understood that our invention is not limited to any specific construction, arrangement or form of the parts, as it is capable of numerous modifications and changes without departing from the spirit of the claims.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent, is:
1. In a rack of the class described, a back member, a pair of laterally opposed upper and lower article gripping bars, one or more U-shaped members carried by said back member with their legs projecting forward therefrom in vertically spaced relation, and engaging and carrying at their outer ends the respective upper and lower legs and held in yielding coacting article gripping relation thereby.
3. In a rack of the class described, a back member, a U-shaped spring wire straddlingthe back member with its loop disposed at the rear thereof and its legs projecting forwardly, said back member having a recess for receiving said loop and having provision for coacting with the spring member for preventing it from turning lengthwise of the back member, and a pair of laterally opposed upper and lower substantially parallel article gripping bars yieldingly carried by therespective upper and lower leg portions of the spring wire, each leg being. pivotally connected to its bar.
4. In a rack of the class described, a back member, a plurality of U-shaped spring membersstraddling the back member with theirllegs projecting forwardly therefrom, said back member cooperating with the spring members to retain them in forwardly projecting position and-permitting swinging collapsing movement thereof l relative to the back member, a pair of laterally opposed upper and lower article gripping bars pivotally carried respectively by the upper and lower legs of said spring members and'held in yielding article gripping coactionby saidlegs.
5. In a rack of the class described, a back member having recesses in its top edge, a U-shapedspring member straddling the back member in association with each of said recesses and adapted to have its legs project forward therefrom with one leg seating in the respective recess and with the other leg spaced below the back member a distance necessary to permit the spring member to be moved laterally of the back member to withdraw its upper leg from such recess and permit collapsing movement of the spring member relative to the back member, and a pair of laterally opposed upper and lower article gripping bars carried respectively by the upper and lower legs of said spring members, whereby the bars are held in yielding coaction, said bars having their adjacent surfaces beveled at their ends to provide an article entrance recess between the ends of the bars;
6. Ina rack of the class described, a back member, a plurality of U-shaped spring members straddling the back member with their looped portionsextending crosswise of the back member and their legs projecting forwardly therefrom, said loop portions being themselves looped laterally at substantially a right angle to the leg portions to lie flat against the back side of the back member, securing means engaging said laterally looped portions and the back member,
and a pair of laterally opposed parallel upper and lower article gripping barscarriedrespectively by the upper and lower legs of said spring members and heldin yielding article'coacting relation by said spring members.
7 In arack of the class described, a back mem-' ber, a pair of article gripping bars in advance of said member, a'plurality of spring members carried by said back member and havingarms projecting forward therefrom and in pivotal sup porting engagement with respective of saidbars thereof relative to the back member, saidspring members beingcollapsibly connected to the back member.
