Description
UNTTED EDWARD B. WESTON, OI" DAYTON, OHIO.
DISPLAY-RACK.
Application mea June 9,
Specification of Letters Patent.-
1906. Serial No. 321,067.
Patented Oct. 6, 1908.
To all whom 'it 'may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWAnn B. WnsToN, a citizen of the United States, residing in Dayton, county of Montgomery, and State of Ohio,'have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Display-Racks, of which the following is afull, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the aecom- )anying drawings, forming part of this specication.
' My invention relates to racks for the display of merchandise of metallic construction, which may be readily and easily taken apart and shipped in knock-down condition, to be easily erected for use, and the invention consists of certain novel construction and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter particularly pointed out and'claimed.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved rack. Fig. 2 is a dctail vertical section on the lilies 2-2 of Fig. 1.
The shelves comprise a series of metallic trays 3, 4, 5, 6,' and 7, of any desired number, rectangular in shape, and graded. in size so that t ey may be arranged in yramidal form. These shelves are `held tlie proper distance apart by the metallic tubes 8-8 which rest above and below the trays in the depressions 9, so that the tubes will lit snugly on the shelves, and at the same time may be arranged in a diagonal osition.
Extending through t e tubes, and through central openings in the depressions 9 in .each of the shelves or trays are the rods 10, Which form .the four sup orts for the shelves. The upper ends 11 o these rods are held in a counter sunk de ression in the uppermost shelfl 7, and the ibwer ends of the rods are screwthreaded and provided with the spherical heads, or nuts, 12, which form the feet for the rack.
13-14 are metallic cross bars ivoted together at the center at 15, and wit 1 openings at the outer ends through which the rods 10 pass.
It will be evident that by tightening the nuts 12, the shelves and collars 8 lwill be rigidly secured together, and a strong and substantial pyramidal display rack obtained.
The shelves preferably have upturned flanges 16-16 to more efle'ctually hold the goods thereon, but while I have illustrated my shelves or trays as rectangular in shape, it will, of course, be understood t-hat they may be circular, oval, or other polygonal shapes other than rectangular.
By my' construction I obviate the necessity of providing anycentral brace or rod,
which takes up space on the shelves, and I provide a construction in which substantially the entire surface of the shelves may be filled with the merchandise to be displayed.
By reason of the formation of the countersunk depressions in each shelf, and the cross braces below the shelves, I am able to provide the tubes 8 all of the same size, and interchanveable, so that the rack 'may be erected for use Without any selection of these parts, and in the least ossible time, andit will also be seen that the s serve as cross braces forthe supports.
For packing the rack for transportation and storage, the trays will fit inside each other, and will also hold the tubes, the cross braces may be folded, and the four rods, the cross braces, and the trays with the collars, will form a compact package, taking up very little space.
Havmg thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isa- In a display rack, a series of shelves of graded sizes, arranged horizontally in pyramid al position one above the other, a serie-s of tubes to separate the shelves, inclined outwardly from one shelf to another, near the outer edge of the shelves, and conforming in position to the outline of a pyramid, said tubes having squared ends, depressions in the shelves to receive the. ends of the tubes, with rods extending through the tubes and shelves, and means for tightening the rods to draw the tubes together, whereby the rack will be securely braced without the necessity of any central support or braces, substantially as described.
EDWARD B. WESTON.
