'DlSPLAY-RACK FOR UMBRELLAS.
SPECIFICATION forming part oi' Letters Patent ivo. 591 ,572, dated October 12, 1897.
Application filed J' une 3, 1897.
Serial No 639,2l0. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concrn: i
Be it known that I, ULY'ssEs G. RocKwELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Groton, in the county of Tompkins and State of New York,'have invented certain new and.
consists in a display-rack of the characterabove named constructed substantially as shown in the drawings and hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective View of a complete rack constructed in accordance With my invention and showing an umbrella suspended from said rack. Fig. 2
is a Vertical longitudinal section, on an enlarged scale, of a portion of one of the bars to which the end of the umbrella is connected and held; Fig. 3, a plan View of the upper section of the bar, showing the mortised seats and the 'rubber disks located therein.
In the accompanying drawings, A B represent two sections detachably connected together by screws or other suitable fastenings and which'form together one of the holdingbars of my improved display-rack. The upper section A is formed with mortised seats a of cir-` cular form to receive similar-formed rubber disks C,which disks are of any preferred thickness and formed with a central hole b to receive the end of the umbrella and hold it suspended therefrom. The rubber disks may have holes of varying diameter to adapt them for holding umbrellas in which the stick is of varying diameter, such as the steel-rod umbrellas.
The bar-sections A B maybe formed of Wood or' anyother preferred material, and has holes c d, respectively, which are on line with the central portion of the disk. Any number of these holding-bars may be used in a single rack and may be provided with any desirable number of rubber disks or places for suspending the umbrellas. These holding-bars are connected at their respective ends to metal frames D E, which terminate at their upper ends in hooks e for attaching thereto wires or .cords whereby said frame may be Suspended from the ceiling of a store or other room.
The frames D E are V-shaped in form and are so constructed as to present inwardly-extending horizontal seats f, to which the ends of the holding-bars areattached by any suitable means. Transverse braces F are employed to hold theframes rigid and prevent them from collapsing.
The rack may be constructed and designed for private use as well as for public use in a private house or store and may be of any size and design found most desirable.
The rubber disks may be of any suitable thickness to adapt them to umbrellas of different weights, whereby the weight of the umbrella will be sustained by the necessary frictional contact of the rubber against the end of the umbrella. The hole in the rubber disk must be slightly smaller in diameter than the diameter of the tip of the umbrella, so that by pushing the tip in the hole of the disk it gives the rubber an upward start, and then by releasing the umbrella fromthe grip of the hand the downward weight of the umbrella gives it a firm grip by-frictional contact of the rubber with the tip, thus securely holding it suspended from the rack, and by giving the umbrella a slight twist with the hand it can be released and removed from the rack.
The rack may be used for holding canes and other articles of a similar nature by using a larger orsmaller rubber disk, as the case may be, to conform to the size and weight of the article and changing the size of the hole in the disk as required. It will be noticed that separate pieces of rubber are used for each of the openingsin the holding-bar and not a single and continuous strip of rubber with a series of holes for the tip of the umbrella or other article to be Suspended therefrom. It will be further noticed that each separate piece of rubber in'the form of a disk is smaller in circumference than the circum- IOO it,thus avoiding the wear of the rubber around the hole, which would be the result were the disk stationary when the umbrella or other article is turned.
Having now fully described my nvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A holding-bar for unbrellas and other articles, consisting of two longitudinal sections connected together, one of said sections having a plurality of nortised and eireular seats, and eircular rubber disks loosely held therein to freely turn with the unbrella or other article Suspended therefron, said seetions and dsks having holes on a line with each other, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A display-rack for umbrellas consisting of a plurality of holding-bars eonprising two longitudinal sections to form said bar, mortised seats formed in one of said sections, rubber disks held therein, holes through the sections and disks, V-shaped metal frames having a plurality of seats for the ends of the holding-bars, and suitable braces for holding the frames rigid, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my nane in the presence of two witnesses.
