IVILLIAM MACK, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANrL.
PAPER BAG RACK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 298,870, dated May 20, 1884.
Application filed March 6, 1884.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM MAcK, of the city of Indianapolis, county of Marion, and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Paper-Bag Racks, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a cheap, durable, and convenient receptacle for paper bags. Iaccomplish this object by means of the device described in this specification, referring to the drawings filed herewith and made a part of this specification, wherein figures and letters which are similar indicate similar parts of my invention.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my device. Fig. 2 is a top view of my invention, and Fig. 3 is a vertical section.
I11 Fig. 1, a is a rectangular board of sufficient length and breadth to form a bottom for my rack.
b is a tapering board which forms the back of my rack, having its lower end of sufficient width to match the bottom board,a., and tapering toward the top end to the width of the smallest bag my rack is intended to contain.
0 and O are boards cut in the shape of a quadrant to form the sides of the twine-box hereinafter described, and at the same time support the back end of the shelf-boards hereinafter described.
d and d are thin circular boards, both of which are attached at their ends to base-board a and backboards b, as seen in the drawings.
6 e e e" e e c c are shelf-boards,fastened by means of nails or screws to the inside of the circular boards (1 and d and c and 0. These boardsee, &c., have their inner ends converging toward the center of a circle, as indicated in the drawings, thus giving my bag-holder a fan shape. This arrangement of my shelfboards 6 e, &c., divides the space between the circular boards (Z d into shelves adapted to the various sizes of the bags it is designed to contain, as illustrated in drawings, and from which each bag can be withdrawn without disturbing the others.
G represents an ordinary twine-holder resting on a base of cast-iron, so constructed as to form a cap to fit over the upper end of the (No model.)
v back-board b, and held in position by two screws, as shown in Fig. 1 of drawings.
The characters 11;, l, 2, 3, 4t, 5, 6, 8, and 10, printed on the circular boards (Z cl, are intended to designate the number or size of the bag which each department or shelf is designed to hold.
The method of using my rack is as follows: Selecting a suitable place to set it, I fasten it to the counter by means of two screws passing through the bottom board at i t, Figs. 1 and 2, and into the counter or shelf on which the rack is to rest. I turn the bottom of all the bags outward and press them mouth foremost into their respective shelves,whieh are made somewhat smaller than the bags to prevent them from moving when one of the bags is with drawn. It will be observed that when each of the shelves of my rack is full of bags with their bottoms turned outward all the space of my shelves is utilized and the bags are in the position to be removed with the least possible inconvenience, all of which is due to the fanlike shape of my device. I also providea door, h, in the side of my rack, as seen at the lower corner of drawings in Fig. 1, to open and close at will, by means of which I utilize the space behind the shelves for depositing the balls of twine ready for use when wanted. (See Fig. 3.)
The whole of my device may be made of wood or any other suitable material.
I am aware that various devices have been patented for paper-bag holders; but I am not aware of any device having been patented or used that combines all the advantages embodied in my invention-namely, cheapness, durability, convenience, and economy of space.
I am also aware that bag-holders with shelves for separating the bags from each other have been patented and used; but I am not aware of any shelves having been so arranged as to form a quadrant or fanlike shape adapted to the form assumed byv the bags when arranged as shown in the drawings, Fig. 1. Therefore,
\Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A paper-bag rack consisting of a baseboard, (6, back-board b, circular side boards,
d d, quarter-circular boards 0 and c,with door It, and shelves 6 c c e 0 c" 0 c all combined and arranged as specified, substantially in the manceptacles for paper bags, substantially in the 1'0 ner and for the purpose set forth. manner and for the purposeset forth.
