DRY-GOODS SAMPLE AND TICKET HOLDER- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 714,249, dated November 25, 1902.
. Application filed October 2, 1901. Serial No. 77,838. (No model.)
T or whom it may concern:
Be it known thatwe, CHARLES H. SMITH and EDWARD JONES, citizens of the United States,
residing at Milwau kee, county of Milwaukee, and State ofWisconsin, have invented new and useful Improvements in DryGoods Sample and Ticket Holders, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to improvements in that class of sample and ticket holders which is used for holding samples and price-marks of various kinds and qualities of dry goods and which is adapted when provided with quickly made from a single piece of sheet i i 12s metal.
The construction of our device is further explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in whichi Figure 1 represents a longitudinal section thereof. Fig. 2 is an end view. Fig. 3 is a planview, and Fig. 4 is a transverse section drawn on line was of Fig. 3.
Like parts are identified by the same reference-letters throughout the several views.
A represents an ordinary boltof cloth,which is wound upon a center-board B in the ordinary manner. The sample-holder comprises a flat central piece 0 and end piece D, formed at right angles to the body of the holder, and two side flanges E E, all of which parts are so formed from a single piece of sheet metal by cutting andbending the same that the use of solder or rivets for uniting the several parts is avoided. The side flanges E E are formed by folding the edges of the plate at right angles thereto and then folding the same back upon itself, as indicated in Fig. 4, whereby the edges of the flanges are given a smooth rounded surface, which facilitates sliding the holder between the folds of cloth, while the folds of the flanges also serve as a convenient means for holding the elastic retaining-bands F in place. The ends of the elastic bands F are inserted between the folds a and b of said flanges, when said folds are compressed together upon the ends of said bands with sufficient force to securely retain them in place.
F is a fabric-supporting guide-bar which is secured at its respective ends to the opposing walls of the side flanges E. The object of the bar F is to so support and retain the inner ends of the sample M as to cause the lower fold to be drawn back to the rear end of the case and straightened out before being withdrawn therefrom. To facilitate inserting the holder in the cloth, the rear ends G of said flanges E are folded inwardlyand downwardly upon the central portion of the holder in such a manner as to form a gradually-tapered bearing from the front end D of the holder rear-wardly to the downward edges of said flanges. The front D of the holder is provided with two card-retaining apertures H for the reception of the price-card I, said card I being inserted in one of said apertures H and out of the other, while the center plate J of said end piece D (behind said price-card) is upset or bent rearwardly slightly a depth corresponding with the thickness of said card, as indicated in Fig. 1, whereby said card may be inserted through saidapertures without bending. To prevent the liability of said price-card becoming accidentally disengaged from its retaining-slots, the central plate J is provided with one. or more indentations or contact-bearings K, which are formed by indenting said plate with a die from its rear side, so that the convex portion of said bearings will press against the price-card and retain the same in place.
The front portion of the holder is provided with a transverse aperture L for the reception of the end of the sample piece M, which is adapted to be drawn from the holder forwardly through said slot from time to time as samples of the goods are required. The sample M is preferably cut from the front end of the roll of goods in strips correspond ing in width with the space between the flanges E of the holder, when it is folded forwardly and backwardly upon itself, as indicated in Fig. 1, and is then inserted upon the under side of the holder, beneath the retaining-bands F, with the free end of said sample preferably arranged next to the surface of the holder. The free end of the sample is then inserted through the slot L, when the holder and its contained samples are inserted in the bolt of cloth, as indicated in Fig. 1, when the card containing the price-mark is inserted through the slots H of the end piece, as stated.
Having thus described our invention,what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. As a new article of manufacture, a sample-holder for dry goods, comprising a central portion provided with two side flanges and an end piece respectively formed substantially at right angles to said central portion, from a single piece of sheet metal; and a plurality of fabric-retaining bands secured at their ends to the sides of said central portion, as set forth, said side flanges projecting from the central portion and forming bearingshoes adapted for contact with the windingboard of a bolt of goods.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a sample'holder for dry goods, comprising a central portion provided with two side flanges and an end piece respectively formed at right angles to said central portion, from a single piece of sheet metal; a plurality of fabricretaining bands secured at their ends to the sides of said central portion, said end piece being. provided with card-retaining slits, and offsets between the slits, as set forth.
3. As a new article of manufacture, a sample-holder for dry goods, comprising a central portion provided with two side flanges and an end piece respectively formed at right angles to said central portion, from a single piece of sheet metal; a plurality of fabricretaining bands secured at their ends to the sides of said central portion, said end piece being provided with apertures for the reception of a sample-card; and indentations or contact-bearings adapted to impinge against the surface of the sample card and retain the same in said apertures, as set forth.
4. As a new article of manufacture, a sampie-holder for dry goods, comprising a central portion provided with two side flanges and an end piece formed to extend substantially at right angles to said central portion from one face thereof, the other face forming a smooth and unobstructed plane surface, said plate, flanges and end piece being formed integrally from a single piece of sheet metal;
. and a plurality of fabric-retaining devices secured at their ends to the sides of said central portion, said side flanges projecting from the central portion in a position to form bearing-shoes for the holder, adapted for contact with the winding-board of a bolt of goods.
5. As a new article of manufacture, a sample-holder for dry goods, comprising a central portion provided with two side flanges and an end piece formed substantially at right angles to said central portion, said side flanges being tapered toward the central portion at the end opposite said end piece; and a plurality of fabric-retaining devices crossing the central portion of the holder between the side flanges, said side flanges being provided with smooth edges and adapted to form bearings for the holder on the winding-board of a bolt of goods.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
