3 Claims.
My invention relates to the positioning oi glass or other partitions between adjacent countershams. It has for its principal object a clip for this purpose which is easy to apply, which holds the partition securely and which occupies a mini- Other objects and ad- Fig. 4 is a sectional View on the line 4 4 in Fis. 3;
Fig. 5 is an end view of a side rail of a sham;
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a clip;
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of a modified clip;
Fig. 8 is a partial side elevation of a modiiied side rail construction; and Fig. 9 is an end elevation of such modied construction.
My invention relates to the positioning of the longitudinal partitions between adjacent counter-shams, the display compartments on such shams being formed by said longitudinal partitions and by transverse partitions. While the present invention is applicable to any sham and cross partition construction, the drawing illustrates a sham, a side rail and a transverse partition clip construction, as shown in my Patent No. 2,120,653 dated June 14, 1938. l
Each counter-sham comprises side rails I held together by cross members 2, said side rails I having alternating vertical grooves 3 and ribs 4, longitudinal strips 5 extending along the upper portions of the side rails and projecting thereabove, a cover 6 supported on said side rails I between said strips 5, clips 'I having stems 8 disposed in said grooves 3 and frictionally held by said strip 5, and transverse glass partitions 9 held by said clips 1. At the front and back of the counter are elongated glass strips II) that form transverse partitions or end walls for the endmost compartments of all the shams. These glass strips are held between the ends of the shams and walls II of the counter. v
For some distance at either end of each side rail, there are no vertical grooves, the upper portion of the side rail merely being recessed sufiiciently to accommodate said strip 5 and leave it flush with the side rail body and the tops of the ribs 4. Extending from' each end of each side rail I into the side rail body is a horizontal slot I2 in which is mounted a base portion I3 of a clip, indicated generally by I4, for supporting a longitudinal partition I5A extending between adjacent side rails. A wall I6 extends from said base i3 downwardly in engagement with the outer face of the side rail I and a wall I'I extends downwardly from said base I3 in engagement with the inner face of the side rail, so that the side rail engaging portion (I3, I6, I'I) of the clip is of inverted channel section.
The partition supporting portion of said clip is of channel section, having one side wall I6 in common with the side wall of the side rail engag-f ing portion of the clip I4, a base I8 and an outer wall I9. Said outer wall is normally inclined. slightly inwardly',` so as to have a gripping action on the partition.
Each side rail is relieved or recessed below the horizontal slot, as shown at 2Il, by an amount equal to the thickness of the clip metal, so that the glass partition rests flush against the side rail body I and the strip 5. The outer wall I9 of each clip I4 rests in the recess 20 of the adjacent side rail. 9
At each end of the counter, as shown in Fig. 3, a glass strip 2| or longitudinal partition may rest between the side rail I of the counter-sham and the end Vwall 22 of the counter, not being held by clips. Removal of this partition would allow sufiicient movement of the shams to enable the clips I4 of any sham to clear the upper part of the adjacent side rail.v
In order to facilitate the removal of any sham, the side rails may be recessed above the clips as shown at 23 in Figs. 8 and 9, and the strips 5 stopped short of the ends of the side rails. This will leave a slight space at Ithe ends of each rail, between it and the glass. The wall 2l may be held by clips as the other partitions I5.
As shown in Fig. 7, the clip may have an outturned lip 24 at the top of its outer wall, in line with the base of the inverted channel portion of the clip, said lip thus extending into the slot of an adjacent sham.
The above construction makes it possible to assemble one longitudinal partition with each counter-sham and place the goods thereon, afterwards moving the counter-sham, with its transverse partitions and the one longitudinal partition to the counter. Each longitudinal partition is rmly held instead of resting loosely between counter-shams and subject to breakage if a countersham should be moved away. The clip is simple and compact in construction and occupies a minimum amount of space. Obviously numerous changes may be made without departing from the invention and I do not wish to be limited to the precise construction shown.
What I claim is:
l. A display counter comprising a partition between adjacent counter-sharns or the like having side rails horizontally slotted at their ends, a clip comprising a channel-shaped portion adapted to receive said partition and an inverted channelshaped portion having one side wall in common with said partition supporting channel and adapted to be seated against the outer face of said side rail, having a base for insertion in one ol said slots in a side rail and having a second side wall adapted to be seated against the inner iace of said side rail.
2. A display counter comprising a partition between adjacent counter-shams or the like having side rails horizontally slotted at their ends, clips for holding said partition in place, each of said clips comprising a channel-shaped portion adapted to receive said partition and an inverted channel-shaped portion having one side wall in common with said partition supporting channel and adapted to be seated against the outer face of said side rail, having a base for insertion in one of said slots in a side rail and having a second side wall adapted to be seated against the inner face of said side rail, the outer face of each side rail adjacent to said partition being relieved below said slots by an amount equal to the thickness of the clip metal, whereby said partition rests flush against said side rails. 3. A display counter comprising a partition between adjacent counter-shams or the like having side rails horizontally slotted at their ends, clips for holding said partition in place, each of said clips comprising a channel-shaped portion adapted to receive said partition and an inverted channel-shaped portion having one side wall in common with said partition supporting channel and adapted to be seated against the outer face of said side rail, having a base for insertion in one of said slots in a side rail and havingT a second side wall adapted to be seated against the inner face of said side rail, the outer face of each side rail adjacent to said partition being relieved below said slots by an amount equal to the thickness of the clip metal, whereby said partition rests ush against said side rail, the outer wall of said partition receiving channel having an outturned lip at the same level as the base of said inverted channel whereby said lip is adapted to extend into a slot of the adjacent side rail.
