UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIcE.
JAMES CRAWFORD, OF ROXBURY, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND W. H. MOINTOSH, OF SAME PLACE.
IMPROVED FLOWER-STAND.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 37,070, dated December 2, 1862.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES CRAWFORD, of RoXbury, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and Improved Flower-Stand; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of myinvention. Fig. 2 is a plan of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the two figures.
The object of this invention is to produce a flower-stand capable of supporting and exhibiting at one view a large number of flowers growingin pots, and which admits of the same being arranged in a variety of ways to form a mammoth bouquet or variegated-flower tree; and itconsistsin the manner of arranging a series of shelves on a standard so that they can be placed in any desired position thereon horizontally, each independent of the other, and made selfsustaining, as will be hereinafter fully explained.
To enable others skilled in the art to fully understand my invention, I will proceed to describe it.
A represents a round post or standard, of wrought-iron or other suitable metal, stepped into a suitable cavity in the pedestal a, which is supported on three or more legs of any desired shape and size, of cast metal.
B B represent brackets, which have each a shelf, 0, cast or otherwise attached on their outer end, which shelves are of circular form, of different sizes, and havea flange, e, on their periphery to prevent the flower-pots from slipping off. The brackets are attached to the standard independent of each other by sleeves b, which encompass the same, and serve to retain each shelf by its own weight in any position on the standard horizontally in which it may be placed. The front bottom edge of each of the sleeves extends below the back edge and rests on the top edge of the preceding sleeve on the standard, to keep the shelves at a proper elevation while being adjusted horizontally on the standard in arranging the plants in order of their size and kind. The shelves are arranged on the standard in order of their size, the smallest being at the top. A cap,f, secured on the upper end of the standard, may also be used as a shelf, if desired.
In arranging the plants on the flower-stand the larger and heavier ones should be placed on thelower shelves, and the whole so arranged on the standard as to have the strain nearly equal on all sides of the same.
The within-described improved flo wer-stand occupies but little floor-room, is simplein construction, and can be easily adjusted to arrange the plants to form a mammoth bouquet or variegated-flower tree. Each of the brackets is attached to the standard independent of any other, and will sustain itself in any position in which it may be placed. The standard being stepped into the pedestal admits of the plants being rotated for inspection without disturbing the pedestal.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The flower-stand herein described and represented, consisting of shelves 0, brackets B, standard A, and pedestal a, combined, arranged, and operating in the manner and for the purpose set forth.
JAMES CRAWFORD.
