' BAG-HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 782,439, dated February 14, 1905.
Application filed December 15, 1903. Serial No. 185,327.
T0 at whom it may concern. Be it known that I, WILLIAM DOWNIE, acitizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Bag-Holder, of which the following is a specification. My invention relates to an improvement in a bag-holder for keeping displayed in the smallest amount of space an assortment of different sizes of bags whereby I do away with the labor of stringing the bags. I dispense with the mutilation of the bags caused from stringing them and'also do away with a greater mutilation, the result of tearing the bags off to use them. Furthermore, with my invention I dispense almost entirely with the an noyance of two or more bags coming out at once; but even if this does happen occasionally my invention provides asimple and easy way of replacing the extra bag or bags back into the holder, thusdoing away entirely with the wasting of bags. I accomplish these-results by the use of the device of which the following is a specification and of which, in the annexed drawings- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the holder filled with bags. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the holder with the apartments detached. Fig. 3 is a View showing the construction of an apartment. Fig. 4 is a view showing the construction of the top apartment m. Figs. 5 and 6 are modified forms of. holders, and Figs. 7 and 8 are modified forms of apartments.
My device may be made of wood or metal or a combination of both; and it consists of an upright a, Fig. 1, fastened to horizontal pieces or, which latter may be screwed to the counter,
if desired. Attached to the upright a are a series of apartments 5, which may be made in various shapes and sizes. I prefer to make them essentially in the shape of a capital let ter L, as shown in Fig. 3; but any style of apartment will answer which will retain the bottom part of the bags. I prefer to construct my apartments with the front stop 0; but this is not absolutely necessary. As shown in Fig. 7, a notch (Z may be cut into the front stop 0 and bottom of the apartment to allow the thumb to be inserted between the bags at the bottom for withdrawing same in cases where bags are used which have no outward folded bottom, as c f, Fig. 1, to grasp. In the same manner this notch d could be cut into the stop 0 and bottom of apartments m, Fig.
4:. The apartments may be fixed or separable with regard to the upright a. and may be attached thereto by springs, hinges, staples, wires, hooks and eyes, &c., in such a manner that they will be free to swing away from and toward the upright a. I prefer to use hooks and eyes, the former shown at g and the latter shown at h, Fig. 1. It is obvious that it is not necessary for the bottom apartments to swing.
Now it will be seen that the holder consists of a series of apartments I), one above the other, also that each apartment, except the bottom than at the top, caused by the folded bottoms of the bags. Consequently the upper apartment being free to swing and press against the bags in the lower apartment, the
latter are compressed so as to not take up any unnecessary room, assuming now a tapered shape toward the top of the bundle.
Coming now to the top apartments, Fig. 1, there are various ways of arranging means for retaining the top part of the bags in these two apartments. For example, asimple flap a, free to swing and weighted at It, if necessary, may be used, as shown in apartment 71, or an apartment, as shown in Fig. 8, with a spring Z to hold the top of the bags may be used instead of the apartment 2' in Fig. 1. It will be seen that the pressure from the weight it applied on the flap of the top apartment, Fig. 1, will be transmitted successively through each apartment and work in conjunction with the weight of the bags in each apartment, except the bottom one, to retain the bags in the apartment underneath. It is also evident that the same result can be procured in other waysas, for example, by a spring fastened directly to the support and pressing against the top apartment. Again, the top apartment may be simple box-shape, as shown by m, Figs. 1 and 4:, on the front face of which is a stop a near the top and a stop 0 near the bottom, with an opening 2) between the stops for the withdrawal of the bags. The box is free to swing and press on the bags in the apartment underneath. The stops may be made of strips or wires.
The upright a may be a plain board or, in fact, anything that the apartments may be fastened toas, for example, posts or rods.
It will be seen that a bag y may be withdrawn from the holder by grasping the folded bottom of the bag 0 Fig. 1, and pulling it through the opening formed between the bottom of the apartment q r and the top of the stop 8 t.
It will be readily seen that to fill an apartment one has only to swing the apartment directly above away from the upright a, put the bundle of bags into the apartment, and then allow the apartment above to swing back and press against the top part of the bags.
The upright a may be omitted entirely by making the back piece of each of the two bottom apartments long enough to meet at a point and to be suspended from above, as shown in Fig. 5, the other apartments to be fastened to the backs of these two apartments,
or the backs of all the apartments could be fastened to a support above it and suspended,
\ as shown in Fig. 6. The apartments of course for filing bills, receipts, accounts, memoranda, &c.
What I claim as new, and desire to obtain Letters Patent on, is therefore 1. A bag-holder consisting of an upright piece, having secured thereto and adaptedto swing a series of l .-shaped apartments, consisting of a back piece, bottom and front horizontal stop, the apartments arranged on the upright one above the other in such a manner that an opening shall be formed between the top of the stop in the bottom apartment and the bottom of the apartment directly above for the withdrawal of the bags, and the same in each apartment excepting the top apartment, which shall be provided with means for retaining the top parts of the bags; each apartment except the bottom one adapted to press against and retain the bags in the apartment directly under.
