Filed Feb. 20, 1963, Ser. No. 259,858
1 Claim. (Cl. 211-10) This invention relates to control boards and particularly toa novel type of board constructed to provide accomodation for cards and the like, and hold them for ready reference.
In the usual course of business itis necessary to maintain control of many things, and this board provides a place to hold cards and the like, for ready visual reference.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a board with novel type card holders, mounted in a novel manner longitudinally in said board. These card holders have a longitudinal slot and are designed to provide for easy insertion and removal of cards and the like.
It is a further object of this invention to mount the longitudinal card holders in such a manner as to provide a second slot available for holding cards and the like in the rear of the front card slot; This type of dual card holding arrangement has many valuable uses, chiefly, where the rear card provides a point of reference or index for the front card.
This invention comprises the novel structure and combination of parts hereinafter described and more particularly defined in the appended claims.
The accompanying drawing referred to in the detail description which follows show:
FIGURE 1 is a front elevational view of a control board according to the present invention.
FIGURE 2 is a sectional view taken on line a--a of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 3 is a sectional view taken on line b-b of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 4 is a partially exploded isometric view of the top portion of the control board front, with the top closure cover not shown, and with the two top channels and center card holding strip in proper position.
Referring now in more detail to the drawings in which like numerals indicate like parts the numeral 1 designates the back of the board, with the numeral 2 designating the sides of the board. The board is further composed of front flanges 3 and rearward extending interior side flanges 4. The bottom of the back is flanged forward and becomes bottom surface 5 and upward to become front bottom flange 6 and rearward to become bottom interior flange 7. Thus parts designated with numerals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 form the board housing. The board housing construction forms a vertical track between the rear edge of side interior flanges 4 and back 1 on each side of said board housing. These said tracks retain spacing channels 9, 10, and 11. Numeral 12 designates the contoured card holding strip. Said contoured card holding strips 12 fit longitudinally between the exterior face of rear extending flanges 4, and are retained in position by spacing channels 9, 10, and 11.
It is noted that this board is easily assembled by placing spacer channel 11 into the board housing tracks formed between rear extending interior flanges 4 and back 1. This spacer channel 11 rests on bottom surface 5. Then contoured card holding strip 12 is placed in position over the top rearward extending flange of spacer channel 11, so that rear flange 12a retains contoured card holding 'ice strip 12 in proper position. Then spacer channel 10 is placed into the said board housing tracks, and slid down into place, and locks said contoured card holding strip 12 into position. Then contoured card holding strips 12 and spacer channels 10 are successively placed in position in said board housing track, and spacer channel 9 is final spacer channel placed at top of track. Then top closure cover 8 is attached to top of said board housing and this completes the board assembly. It should be noted rear flanges 12a in conjunction with the rearward extending flanges of spacer channels 9, 10, and 11 lock contoured card holding strips 12 into position.
Contoured card holding strip 12 is formed with slot 13 to hold cards 15 for ready reference. It should also be noted card holding strips 12 are formed with front protrusions that hold cards 15 away from front face of spacer channels 9 and 10, so that cards 15 can easily be grasped by the fingers for removal. The top extending front flange of contoured card holding strip 12 is formed in such a way that when said strip 12 is held in position between spacer channels 9, 10, and 11, it forms a longitudinal slot 14 between said extending flange of strip 12 and front face of saidspacer channels 9 and 10. Said slot 14 is designed to hold card 16. It is noted that card 16 can be mounted in slot 14 simultaneously with card 15 mounted in slot 13. The upper extending flanges of contoured card holding strips 12 are marked with guide lines 17. These said guide lines 17 are used for lining up cards 15 and 16 when cards are mounted on board.
The invention which I have herein shown and described is one which is very simple in construction and use. It is readily apparent that the novel manner of mounting card holding strips between spacer channels provides a new and useful type of control board.
While various changes may be made in the detail construction, it shall be understood that such changes shall be within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claim.
I claim:
A control board for cards comprised of a board, said board having vertically disposed inwardly facing tracks along the sides thereof, a plurality of spacer channels each channel comprised of a web, rearwardly directed leg portions, and having end portions slidably mounted in said tracks; contoured strips, each said strip having a rearwardly projecting flange portion positioned between a pair of adjacent channel members thereby securing said strip on said board, each said strip having an upwardly extended front flange adjacent the front face of the Web of one of said channels thereby forming a longitudinal slot for holding cards or the like, each said strip having a longitudinal card holding slot on the front thereof and a forwardly extended protrusion which is adapted to hold a card held by an adjacent strip in a position for easy removal; each strip further having guide lines on the exterior thereof to be used for the proper position of cards.
