DISPLAY- RACK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 516,347', dated March 13, 1894.

Application iiled April 24, 1893.

To @ZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, BAYARD CHAMBERLIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Denver, in the county of Arapahoe and State of Colorado, have made a new and usefulinvention in Display Racks or Frames, of which the following is a specification.

My invention is directed particularly to inlprovements in display racks or frames for supporting and displaying harness, saddles, and the like, in show windows or on the street in front of stores or in analogous places, and its Objects are, irst, to render such an apparatus adjustable so as to be enabled to display harness fordierentsized horses; second, to enable one to take the apparatus apart and store it or pack it in a small space for storage or transportation.

My invention will be fully understood by referring to the accompanying drawing in which is a perspective view of my display rack for harness, saddles, or the like, all of the parts thereof being made adjustable and detachable.

Referring to the drawing in detail, T, T2, T3, T4, T5, TG, T7, T8, T9 and T10 are independent or disconnected standards constructed of short pieces of hollouT tubeing or piping attached to junction sections, as are gas pipes, and R', R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 are solid extensions secured respectively to said parts and adapted to telescope in a manner at once obvious on inspection of the drawing.

S, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, SS, S9 and S10 are set screws for varying the relative adjustment Otl the parts at will.

B, B and B2 are respectively the supports for the different part-s of a harness, as the collar, haines and bridle; the saddle, and the breeching.

It is obvious on inspection of' the figure that this apparatus may be adj usted longitudinally, by removing the set screws S2, S4, S9 and S10 and lengthening out the parts attached to the standards T6 and T8, which Serial No. 471,562. (No model.)

standards, T6 and T8, together with the standard T7 are provided at their lower ends with casters for conveniently moving the rack at the will of the user.

The entire apparatus may be rendered adj ustable vertically by removing the set screws SG, S7 and S8 and lifting the independent standards T', T2, T3 and their attached parts, at'ter which said set screws are firmly secured in position. The relative supporting parts B, B and B2 may be likewise rendered adjustable to various heights, by lift-ing or lowering them and manipulating the set screws S', S3 and S5.

I am aware-that display racks fori exhibiting garments in show Windows have heretofore been devised having the parts adjustable and'I make no claim in the present application broad enough to include such a Structure.

I am not aware, however, that any one has heretofore devised a harness display rack having the individual supports for separate parts of the harness adjustable, the sustaining parts of said adjustable supports being united together by adjustable parts and my claim is directed to a harness display rack of this general nature.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-

A display rack Vfor harness or analogous purposes made of hollow tubular standards T6, T7 and TB sustained by feet or legs, in combination with adjustable rods R', R2, R6 and R7 for adjusting the parts longitudinally, and supporting devices provided with verticaladjustable sustaining rods R3, R4 and R5, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name this 24th day of March, 1893.

. BAYARD CHAMBEBLIN.
