Nrrnn Sra'rns Asl-low-c/ise SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 310,024, dated December 30, 1884.
Application filed September 20,1883. (Model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADAM K. BOWMAN, of Greensburg, in the county of Westmoreland and State oi' Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Show- Cases with Brackets for Holding Yarn, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of this invention is to provide a show-case in which assorted yarns and other goods may be stored and exposed for sale.
It consists in an upright case with glass doors, and having removable partitions and brackets, as will be hereinafter more fully described.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the iigures.
Figure lis a front elevation. Fig. 2 is a sectional plan view of a show-case arranged with the brackets for-holding assorted yarns. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of part of one of the posts by which the brackets are supported. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of'a bracket-support for yarn.
The show-case A is upright in form, made with doors aon two opposite sides of the case, and divided into compartments by removable partitions a, which rit into grooves c in the top and bottom of the case A.
Through the center of case A are vert-ical posts B, reaching from top to bottom, and secured by entering a mortise at the bottom a', and at the top by screws passing through the top a2 and entering the top b2 ot' the post B. Posts B are grooved on the sides which face the doors a, and have on the same faces, on each side of the groove, a plate of metal, b, tirmly secured thereto and overlapping the edge of the groove, and thus forming the recess b, adapted for the reception of guide c of the bracket C. The shelf d of the bracketisathin strip of metal or board, having at one end the guide c, which guide is adapted in width to pass between the metal plates b. not reach quite to the top of post B, a space, b3, beingleft sufficient for the insertion of the arms c of guide c. Guide c has arms c, adapted in their lengtlrfrom end to end to fill the width of recess b in rear of plates b, and to impinge against the rear face of plates Plates b do vcolor or shade.
b. The shelves d have on their under side staples d, adapted to receive the arms e3 of the guides c and to secure them thereto. The arms c3 of the guides are provided with shoulders c2 e2, which impinge against the front face of the plates l). The brackets C are usually supported on the yarn D beneath them but it' they are raised a little, the front edge of'the shelf l will drop a short distance, in which position it will be llocked by the guides to the plates b by the impingement of the arms c against the rear face of plates b,and the impingement of shoulders ct of the arms c3 against the front face of plates I). The brackets O are formed by passing the outwardlyextending arms c3 or' the guide c through the staples on the under side ofthe shelves d. The bracket is then placed in the recess b, through the space b3 at the top of the post B, the arms c of guide e passing in the rear of the plate b, the shelf being held slightly raised from the horizontal position. The bracket can then be moved downward to any desired position, in which position it will be held when it is released by the impingement ot' the arms c and shoulders c2 against the plates b b. Other brackets can be placed in like manner, and they are stored with yarn D, each bracket receivingonly one The shelves are numbered, and the yarn is sold by samples corresponding in number and color with the yarn on the several shelves. The yarn is removed hank by hank as sold, and the upper shelves being supported by and resting upon the yarn D on the shelves below, they settle down as the yarn below them is removed. Vhen sufficient space is thus made another bracket is inserted.
The advantages of my invention are that assorted yarns may be kept for retail sale in separate compartments of the case without being mixed or disarranged, and more yarns may be placed in other separate compartments as soon as room is made for them without disarranging those already in the case.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-d 1. An improved show-case, provided with movable partitions and adjustable brackets held in vertical posts between said partitions, substantially as herein shown and described. 2. The show-case A, for exhibiting yarn,
IOO
provided with the removable partitions a3, and the bracket C, carrying shelves d, and held adjnstably in vertical grooved posts B, substantially as hereinshown and described.
3. In a show-case, the combination, with vertical posts B, provided with grooves having plates extending over the edges of the same, ofthe brackets C, having guide c, provided with arms c', substantially as herein xo shown and described.
4. In a show-case, the combination, with the vertical grooved post B, provided with the plates b, overlapping the edges of the grooves, of the bracket C, provided with the guide c, having arms c', and the arm a, having shoulders c2, and the shelf d, secured n the said arm c, substantially as herein shown and described.
