" WWW ATTOR/VEX Patented Oct. 30, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE FLORAL DISPLAY STAND Karl Wagler, Chicago, Ill. Application March 29, 1949, S'erialNo. 84,139
2v Gl'aims: (o1.. 24s'--2rz.s).
A- further object of the invention is the provision of a combination floral display standand vase removably secured to one another.
A still further object of the invention the provision of a display stand and vase arrangement having connecting means enabling the vase "to be removed from the stand and positioned in a self-supporting manner in the earth.
The display stand shown and described herein comprises a device primarily intended for displaying floral arrangements such as vases, wreaths and floral displays of other forms as commonly used in connection with funerals and the like and wherein the various display stands of different heights may be employed for receiving and holding the floral pieces and arrangements.
The principal novelty in the floral display stand disclosed herein is in the combination therewith of a removable vase or other floral piece supporting member which incorporates means for rendering the vase capable of standing vertically on the earth at such time as, for example, the vase portion of the device is removed to the cemetery.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure l is a side elevation of the floral display stand and vase.
Figure 2 is an enlarged horizontal section taken on line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a side elevation of a modified form of floral display stand and a flower holding member.
Figure 4 is a view of the vase portion of the floral display stand and vase shown in Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a plan view of a modified form of flower supporting member.
Byreferring to-the drawings and Figures 1 and 2m particular it will be seen that the floral display stand and vase combination comprises a standportion formed. of a plurality of vertical support members ID (for example, four in number) radially spaced with respect to one another and secured to one another .by circular wire shapes II. The circular wire shapes II are of varying diameter, the largest being located adjacent the bottom ends of the support members I0 and the smallest being located adjacent the upper ends thereof. The lowermost ends of the support members II are preferably formed in upturned loops I2 and each of the uppermost wire shapes I I is provided with a plurality of secondary loops l3 radially spaced thereabout, as best shown in Figure 2 of the drawings. The two rows of radially spaced loops l3 are relatively small and located in substantial but not accurate vertical alignment with one another. A vase I4 has a plurality of depending prongs I5 secured to the bottom thereof, each of which is adapted to be positioned through two of the radially spaced loops I3. The floral display stand and vase will thus be seen to comprisethe combination of the stand portion formed of the vertical support members In and the vase I4 with the prongs I5 thereof adapted to be detachably engaged in the loops I3 of the stand.
The general tapering shape of the stand portion of the device and the different diameters of the two rings I Ill will be seen to secure the prongs IS in the loops l3-l3 by distorting the same and hence holding the vase M in relatively secure engagement with the stand portion of the device so that it will not be accidentally separated therefrom. The composite device may be used in positioning and supporting floral displays, the floral container being positioned directly in the vase M or the flowers themselves may be positioned directly therein. In either event, at such time as it is desired to move the floral displays from the initial point of display to a remote location, the vase I4 may be detached from the stand portion and will then form a vase capable of supporting itself upright when positioned on the earth or sod as, for example, in a cemetery, as best shown in Figure 4 of the drawings. 7
The particular formation of the floral display device will be seen to make possible the display of various types of. floral arrangements. By referring to Figure 3 of the drawings a modifled form of the device may be seen to be formed 3 of twisted metal strip, the vertically standing legs thereof being indicated by the numeral l6 and provided at its upper end with a modified means of connecting a flower supporting member. The modified means comprises an annular band I! of suitable material secured to the upper ends of the legs l6 and slit at intervals in spaced pairs to form substantially vertically aligned partial loops [8 which will receive and retain a plurality of depending prongs I9 secured to a frame- E work 29 on which a floral arrangement may be positioned.
It will occur to those skilled in the art that.
modifications of the framework 29 may be made to hold different types of floral arrangements and pieces and by referring to Figure 5 of the drawings an arrangement may be seen for supporting a wreath. A wreath supporting frame 2 l' is provided with a plurality of depending prongs 22 which are adapted to register with the support stands shown in Figures 1 and 3 of the drawings.
, It will thus be seen that a simple and inexpensively constructed floral display stand has been disclosed which may be formed of readily available materials and will provide attractive and practical means of supporting floral displays with the desirable feature of enabling the vase or floral supporting portion of the device to be separated from the standard portion and removed to a remote location. It will occur to those skilled in the art that the vase portion 14 2|, as disclosed herein, may be and preferably are inexpensively formed so that they may be used once and then discarded. The standard portion of the device may obviously be retained and reused as desired.
.or the framework 20 or wreath support member Having thu described my invention, what I claim is:
1. A floral display device comprising in combination a standard and a flower holding member, two rows of radially spaced rings on said standard the flower holding member having several radially spaced prongs detachably engaging the said rows of rings on said standard for normally securing the said flower holding member thereto.
, 2. A floral display device comprising a standard formed of a plurality of vertically standing inclined support members, ring-like members spacing the said support members, radially spaced loops formed on at least two of the said ring-like members adjacent the uppermost end of the standard and a flower holder having a plurality of radially spaced depending prongs positioned theron for detachable engagement ,with the said radially paced loops.
