Application filed. August 19, 1907 Serial N 0. 389,196.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDWARD B. WEsToN, 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-Rack j Attachments, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to attachments to be applied to racks, or shelves, upon which goods are displayed for the purpose of permitting the boxes or packages containing the goods to be drawn out, but held at the edge of the shelf, so that the lid or cover can be raised to remove thecontents of the package Without the necessity of removing the package entirely from the display shelf.
The special purpose of my invention is to i provide such attachments for use with cans or boxes, in which the lid is hinged to the can at the back, and in which the attachments can be readily and easily applied to the shelves and connected with the can, so that upon drawing out the can from the shelf, the lid may be opened and, remain open to permit the ready removal of the contents of the clanlfwhile the can is, held at the edge of the s e the can and contents has been ap lied to the V hinge of the lid and as a result t ese hinges are frequently ruptured or broken away, and
it is the special purpose ofmy invention to provide a construction in which the strain of the attachment is removed entirely from the lid, and the entire attachment is secured between the body of the can and the shelf.
A further purpose of the invention is to supply an attachment which can be readily secured in place on the display shelves without requiring any accurate adjustment, so that any one no matter how unskilled can a ply the attachment, it being understood t at the attachment is intended to be ap lied to shelves already in use in stores an the like, as well as for shelves as they are shipped from thefactory.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved attachment removed from the can and shelf. Fig. 2 is a vertical It has been customary in the construction cross section of the can with the attachment applied thereto- Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a portion of the display rack showing the attachment: a plied to the can with the. can drawn out 'or removal of the contents, but before throwing up the lid.
1 is a part of a side standard, and 22 are sections of two of the shelves of any construction of display rack, and 3 is the can such as is used ordinarily for the displa of cracker goods, cakes and the like. T ese cans are usually made with an inner flange 4 around the upper and inner edge of the body of the can, .and they are. usually provided with a flan ed lid 5 hinged at the rear at 6 to the body of the can. The holder for the can com rises arod 7 slightly longer than the widt of the can, with its ends 8 bent at right angles, and provided with'the spring clips 99 at each end. These clips are sha ed to curve overthe upper edge of the can ody, and to be secured in place by engagement under the rim 4.
10 and 11 are connecting bars hinged at 12, so that these bars will fold together, and the outer end of the bar 10 is loosely strung or mounted on the rod 7, so that it will rotate thereon, and also slide laterally. The outer end of the bar 11 is given a right angle turn at 17, and is bent over at 13 to form a ri ht angle flange, which is pivoted at 14 to the c ip '15, provided with openings 16, by which the clip can be secured to the rear edge of the shelf as shown in Fig. 3 by screws or nails.
In order to attach the device, the lid of the can is thrown open, the rod 7 placed across the back of the can underneath the hinge 6, and the spring clips 8 caught over the flange 4, as shown in Fi 2. The connecting bars 1011 are then slid on the rod 7 to about the middle position, and the clip 15 is nailed or screwed to the rear edge of the shelf immediately above the can. The hinged connecting bars 1011 are mounted in a vertical plane on the rod 7, and the outer end of the bar 11 is turned at right angles so as to fit against the rear edge of the shelf as the can is drawn out, thus keeping the cans in perfect alinement when pulling them forward, or replacing them in the rack, and thus the cans are prevented from working sidewise. In addition to this when the can is replaced, the bars 1()11 fold downwards, and serve as a back stop for the cans, maintaining a perfect alinement for the cans in front.
Y Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. In a display rack attachment, the combination with the shelves of the rack, of a rod extending across the rear of the can underneath the hinge of the lid, and spring clips for securing said rod to the body of the can, with a r'oldlng lever comprising a plurality of bars pivoted together, one end of one of said bars being mounted on said rod to slide laterally, and the other end ermanently secured to the back edge of the shelf above the can.
2. In a display rack attachment, the combination with the shelves of the rack, of a rod extending across the rear of the can underneath the hinge of the lid, and spring clips for securing said rod to the body of the can, with a folding lever comprising a plurality of bars pivoted together in a vertical plane, with one end of one of said bars mounted on said rod to slide laterally, and with the outer end of the other of said bars bent at right angles t0 the body of the bar, and a clip pivoted thereto, with means for securing the clip to the rear edge of the shelf above the can.
