ATTYS Alfred Jelfiffe UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 9, 1906.
Application filed May 5, 1905. Serial No. 258,958.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALFRED JEIiLIFFE, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Louis, Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Sample-Display Cases, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as Will enable others skilled in the art towhich it appertains to make anduse the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a samplecase constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view through the same, showing the relative positions of the winding-drums when the material has been transferred from one drum to the other. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the relative positions of the drums when substantially an equal amount of material is on each drum. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view through the casing and one of the drums, and Fig. 5 is a perspective View of the drums and the web removed from the casing.
This invention relates to sample-cases for displaying goods, and particularly to a tailor s sample-case which may be utilized for displaying the effect of dress materials.
One of the objects is to provide means for illustrating upon reduced-scale models the general efiect any sample of material or pattern will have when made up into garments and worn upon the person.
In order to properly illustrate the effect of the goods, it is essential that the material be held close to the transparent figure representing the person.
It is the purpose of my invention to keep the goods in close proximity to the figure and to do this automatically irrespective of the material reeled off from the drum.
Other objects and advantages, as well as the novel details of construction of this invention, will be specifically described hereinafter, it being understood that changes in form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.
The preferred embodiment of my invention includes a casing 1, having a panel 2 therein provided with a transparent figure 3, surrounded by an opaque background 4 The panel is preferably carried by a removable cover 5, and beneath this cover is a partition 6, comprising a guide for guiding cloth between the panel and said partition 6.
7 and 8 designate slots in the side walls of the casing 1, in which are resiliently-supported bearings, as indicated as plates 9 in Fig. 4:, said bearings supporting the shafts 10 and 1 1 of the drums 12 and 13, around which drums is adapted to be wound a web 14, containing samples of different materialas, for example, as indicated at 15, 16, 17, and 18which samples may be secured to the web 14 by appropriate lines of stitching 19. The plates 9 are supported on springs 9 as indicated in Fig. 4. The shafts project beyond the side Walls of the casing 1, and each shaft is provided with a knob 20, whereby the shaft and its respective drum may be rotated in the proper direction to wind the material on one drum and unwind it from the other.
As heretofore stated, it is the purpose of this invention to maintain the material in close proximity to the figure portion of the panel 2, and this is automatically accomplished irrespective of the amount of material on either of the drums by the resilient bearings, which are illustrated as plates 9, against which the shafts bear.
In Fig. 2 I have illustrated the material as being entirely unwound from the drum 12 and wholly wound upon the drum 13. In this position the, axes of the respective shafts 10 and 11 are out of alinement. The reason for this is that it is assumed that the springbearing for the lower shaft has forced the cylinder close to the panel, so that the material will be held flush thereagainst and prevent any intervening space from occuring even though the diameter of the roll is changed. The upper cylinder is illustrated as having receded from the panel, but only so much as to permit the material to be wound thereon without destroying the parallelism of the panel and displayed material.
In Fig. 3 I have shown the positions of the respective rollers or drums when each has approximately the same amount of material Wound. From the positions of the several rollers, as illustrated in the various figures, it will be apparent that an exterior portion of each roll will at all times bear against the panel. In order to prevent the springs of the bearings from forcing the shafts entirely out of the slots, I have provided fastening devices 21, which are in the form of pivoted latches spanning the slots, so as to hold these shafts in place. In order to demonstrate the efiect of any particular piece of goods when made up and worn upon the person, the operator need only turn the desired shaft through the medium of one of the knobs 20,s0 as to wind the goods on one of the cylinders and unwind it from the other until the desired material is opposite the transparent miniature figure, in which position the desired effect will be produced. During the operation of the cylinders the diameters of the rolls will be constantly changing. This change will in no Wise affect the disposition of the goods with relation to the panel.
Having thus described the invention,what is claimed as new, and desired to be secured by Letters Patent, is
1. In a device of the class described, the combination with a casing having a transparent panel, said casing having slots in the side Walls thereof, rollers j ournaled in the sides of the casing, and resiliently-supported bearings for the rollers, which bearings have a tendency to force the rollers against the panel; substantially as described.
2. In a device of the class described, the combination with a casing, of a transparent panel carried by the casin a partition carried by the casing and paral e1 with the panel, rollers at the respective ends of the partition, and resiliently-supported bearings for the rollers, which bearings have a tendency to maintain the peripheries of the rollers in contact with the panel; substantially as described.
3. In a device of the class described, the combination with a casing having a transparent panel, of oppositely-rotatable rollers carried by the casing, a Web wound on said rollers and having different kinds of material stitched thereto, and resiliently-supported bearings for the rollers exerting pressure thereagainst to force the material against one surface of the panel irrespective of the diameter of the roll of material on either of the rollers; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses, this 15th day of April, 1905.
ALFRED J ELLI-FFE.
Witnesses B. F. FUNK, GEORGE BAKEWELL.
