SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 606,325, dated June 28, 1898. Application filed September 23, 1897. Serial No. 652,694. (No model.)
T0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS F. ADAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Photograph-Oabinets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a cabinet or case for the exhibition and storage of photographs and for the use of dealers in photographs, views &c.; and the object is to provide an improved cabinet for the exhibition and storage of a large collection of photographs, so that the same may be protected and more conveniently handled than when placed in albums or other contrivances in which they are at present stored or exhibited, and whereby the entire collection may be readily opened, exposed, and closed as required.
My invention consists of a cabinet having a stationary rear wall at the back of the storage-chamber, a side wall hinged to said rear wall, a series of picture-frames hinged dircctly to the inner side of said wall, and a locking device located outside of and adjacent to said cabinet for holding the side wall and frames directly supported thereby in open position.
Referring to the drawings, Figurel represents a front view of my improved photographcabinet with the door raised, exposing the inside and the frames that carry the pictures. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section thereofon the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the side wallthrown back andfastened against the wall with the frames in position to be inspected. Fig. l represents in horizontal section a double cabinet having two sets of frames, both of which are in their closed or folded position.
Similar letters of reference indicate corre sponding parts.
In the drawings, A represents a cabinet which may be of any dimensions suitable for the purpose and may be adapted for a single set of frames, as in Figs. 1, 2, and 3,.or double, as shown in Fig. 4. The front of the cabinet A is closed by a sliding or rolling door or front A, which may be raised and lowered as desired. Thedoor A slides in ways or grooves a, formed in the side walls of the cabinet, and serves to close the case when drawn down into closed position. --The side wall A of the cabinet A is suitably'hinged to the back thereof so as to swing outwardly. To this side wall A are hinged a number of frames B in such a manner that they may be conveniently swung from one side to the other for the inspection of the photographs in the frames. For this purpose the frames B are hinged by intermediate pieces or strips 1) to the side wall A the joints of the hinges connectin g the frames B to the strips b and the strips 1) to the side wall A being placed on opposite sides of the frames, so that each one of the frames can be swung to either side, thus permitting inspection of photographs placed on each side of each one of the set of frames, as will be readily understood from Fig. 3. As the frames are inspected and swung to one side the succeeding frames are folded down one upon the other and lie par allel to the one next below. This result is effected by the arrangement of the hingejoints in the manner above described and by varying the length of the intermediate strips 1), as shown in Fig. 3.
Each of the frames B is divided by intersectin g partition-strips into spaces the size of the photographs to be framed. The upper and lower sides of the horizontal dividingstrips are provided with grooves into which the photographs may be easily inserted and removed.
A suitable fastening device 0 is located sidewise of and at such distance from the rear wall so that the side wall. may be readily locked thereto when swung into open position,
so as to hold the side wall in position for per- I mitting the convenientinspectionof the picture-fraiiies The fastening device C is hinged to the wall, so as to be against the wall when not required for'use.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 4: the same arrangement and construction as described above is followed, except that the cabinet is made double and has two hinged side walls which are, provided with two sets of frames 13, which are swung to the right and left of the center of the cabinet. In this construction each side Wall is locked in open position to the wall by a separate locking de vice.
It will be seen that by attaching the frames 13 directly to the side walls of the cabinet the construction of the device is much simplified and valuablespace saved. By reason of this construction and arrangement above described the cabinet may be made comparatively shallow, so that when closed it takes up the minimum amount of wall and floor space. For the same reasons when the cabinet is opened and the frames swung out for. inspection they do not project so far into the room, but are brought as close as possible to the wall. This saving of floor and wall space is a Very desirable feature, as the quarters in which they are used are generally confined and more or less crowded with people.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent THOS. F. ADAMS.
