eral'that itiisneccssaryto produce arack of extreme (11621110088 and simplicity, inasmuch as theseracks are frequently distributed free" to sales agents and stores by the manufae 'turer or wholesaler of the goods dis layed Again, it lre uently happens that t e articles displaye' may vary in dimensions, .in length or width, in which case itwould be necessary to have a plurality of separate racks; but my invention comprehends theuse of movable partitions to accommodate these variations.
The purpose of my invention is to devise a (.lisplay-rack of such structure as will be cheap to manufacture, having the fewest different elements, which will have amain frame made principally of a singlecontinuous sheet of metal, which will be extremely rigid, and which will be divided into various compartments or pockets with adjustable 5 walls.
The invention consists of the parts and the construction and combination of parts as hereinafter more fully described and claimed, having reference to the accompany- 4-0 'ing drawings, in wbich' Figure l is a perspective view, riartly broken away. Fig. 2 is a plan of a wa l element. Fig. 3 shows another form" of wall element.
l5 In the practical embodiment ol'= the inven tion, I form the bod of the rack'from a single sheet of suitab c material,preferably galvanized iron, bending this sheet, as shown in Fig. 1, to form a series of lrmgitudmal troughs arranged in echelon, and having substantially vertical respective long and.
short, rear and front walls 2 and 3, and hat bottoms 4; the bottoms of the troughs being in different levels, and the entire device 6 adapted to be supported at an incline by suitable means, as the bracket 6, so as to e use of a-holder or is lay rack for tickets, est-cards or seed-par; ets,
maintain the bottoms 4 'horiiontal. 'lh'e end of the sheet .beyond the topmost rear wall 2 is'folde'd over to provide a stirrup 7 to receive the. pintlesof the brackets 6, and the oppositeend ofthe striplwyond the lowermost front wall 3 is bent down, as shown at 8,-to;provide a support for the lower end of the rack. The ends of the rack -are-faced by strips or plates 9, and the mtennediate trough spa-Cesare suitably divided oil into pockets or compartments 10, either by means of the rigid partition plates 11 or the adjrst able fpartition platesi12.
"KY enthe rack is to be used to display articles of standard and uniform dimensx as,
fixed partitions, such as 11, may be used.
These partitions are conforn'iable in shape to ;the cross-section of the compartment troughs, and the up )er edge is cut in accordance \vithgthe pitch of thetop of the walls.
When it isdesired to display articles of various dimensions, movable partitions 12, Fig. 3,havingoppositely rejecting lu s 13 formed upon the vertical -lmnt and back edges maybe used in lieu of the rigid partitions 11; the lugs13 being designed to fit snuglyagainst the front and rear walls and. permit the partitions to be spaced at pleasure along the floori. I a
' For the pur ose of,cleaning the coinpartments, the ho es 14 may be provided in the bottoms'of the pockets.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by'lretters Patl.- A display-rack com missing a series of troughs arranged in eche on, with the bot.- toms and sides of the troughs made from a. single sheet of material, said troughs having partitions to divide the same into pockets,
,said partitions being adjustable lengthwise in the troughs and means for St. orting the rack at anmcline. e
2. A displayrack having a' series. of troughs formed by bending a continuous sheet of material. the bottoms of said troughs being in dill'erent-levels and said troughs having lum'el' rear walls and shorter front walls, end dlosuros for the troughs, partitions in saidtroughs forming pockets, and a .loldable bracket hinged to the top of the rack, the end of the sheet beyond the topmost rear wall being folded over to provide a bcaring,'and the bracket being providcd with prntles toengage said bearing,
Ill)
and a fo'ldabl'e bracket hi ed to the of the rack, said partitions eing adjustable i I lengthwise in the troughs.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set i my hand in presence of two subscribing wlt- 1.5
