EASEL AND HANGER FOR CUPS AND SAUCERS- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 779,332, dated January 3, 1905.
Application filed November 4, 1903. Serial No. 179,795.
To mZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JAMES E. TRVITGHELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, county of I/Vayne, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Easels and Hangers for Cups and Saucers; and I declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to holders for exhibiting cups and saucers, and has for its object improvements in such exhibiting devices.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a holder intended to be used to hold a saucer and a cup that is without a handle. Fig. 2 shows a device which holds a saucer and a cup that is provided with a handle. In either case the holder is made of wire bent to a form to furnish a broad and stable base to rest on the shelf or counter or table and is so bent that the saucer is engaged and held entirely clear from the table, and the cup is held in front of' the saucer, but free from it and not touching it.
In the form shown in Fig. 1 the wire of which the holder is constructed has two converging standards a b, which rise from coils 4 and 5. At the top the converging standards are bent downward and join in aloop 1. From the bends 2 and 3 the wire of the loop converges somewhat and the sides 16 and 17 of the loop are somewhat narrower in width than the adjacent standards. The loop also bends toward the standards and is adapted to hold a cup between itself and the standards by springpressure due to the resiliency of the metal of which the holder is made. The bottom parts of the coils 4E and 5 are the tangent points at which the holder rests upon any object upon which it may be placed. From the bottom of the coils 4 and 5 branches 6 and 7 of the wire rise obliquely upward, diverging from the standards a and b, and are continued in curves which bring the ends of the wire to a plane that passes through those points of the coils 4 and 5 which are tangent to the supportingsurface. Near the ends are a second set of points tangent to the surface upon which the holder rests. The edge of the saucer engages in the deep angles 10 and 11, the body of the saucer rests against the back-rests 6 and 7, and the saucer is held in a very nearly vertical position. The edge of the cup is engaged between the loop and the standards.
In the form shown in Fig. 2 all the lower parts of the device are bent precisely in the same way as shown in Fig. 1. Instead of the spring holding-loop 1 the wire is brought more closely together and bent into a hook 15, which engages through the handle of the cup. I
What I claim is 1. In a holder for exhibiting cups and saucers, a wire bent to produce tangent points upon which the holder rests and elevated angular rests for the edges of the saucer and a holding-support for a cup adapted to hold the
