WILBUR H. CRANE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
DISPLAY-RACK.
Specication of Letters Patent. Patented Sept. 27, 191 0.
Application le September 18. 1909. Serial No. 518,393.
' Garfield Place, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, city and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Dis lay-Racks, of which the following is a specification, reference be- 'ing had therein to the accompanying drawtlhis invention relates to apparatus for hanging garments and other wearing apparel, and has for its object to provi e an improved apparatus by means of which space may be so econoinized that a number and variety of garments may be suspended compactlywithin said space.
Another object of the invention is toprovide an ilnpioved apparatus for hanging garments and other wearing apparel which is so constructed and arranged that it may he stationed against a Wall and an increase of space be provided thereby.
Figure 1 1s a perspective view of the improved rack, shownv in an open position.
Fig. 2 is a front View, the rack being shown closed. Fig. 3 is a central vertical sectional View taken on the line 3--3, Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a top plan view. Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view of the wall frame, shown partly folded. Fig. 6 is a similar view complete y folded. Fig. 7 is a detail perspective view of the trouser supporting frame, showing the manner of separating the members thereof. Fig. 8 is a detail perspective view of one of the wall brackets for spacing the foldable frame from a wall.
Referring to said drawings it will be observed that the improved rack is in the form of a wall cabinet the stationary body of which is formed of a frame the side members of which are formed in two sections, l-2 having a hinge connection 3, and end mem ers which are also in two sections 4-5, having a hinge connection 6said end sections in turn having a hinge connection 7 with the side end sections.
The upper sections 1 of the side members are each provided with an outstanding extension 8 the inner face of each being provided with inclined slots or recesses 9 which support the ends of bars 10 that are used for hanging neckties and thelike on. Said extensions 8 have their upper portion cut away to form seats 11 for the wall bracket 12 which is slotted as indicated at 13 to fit over the side members. Said bracket is fastened to the wall by means of end screws 14 or the like, and carries hooks l5 for en# agement with the eyes 16 of the top member of the frame.
A wall bracket 17, similar in all respects with the bracket 12 is employed for the lower end of the Wall frame. The lower end member of the wall frame has hinge connections 18 with the lower -endinember 19 of a trouser supporting frame. Said hinge connection 18 is of a Well known separable leaf type which permits the trouser supporting frame to be separated from the wall frame. Said trouser supporting frame is composed of the said bottom member 19 side members 20--21, and to said members 19 and 22 having tenons 23 at their ends for engagement with the mortises 24 at the ends of the members 20-21 and may be held in rigid but detachable engagement by the set screws 25. The side member' 20 is provided with regularly aced sockets 26 and the member 21 is provided with regularly spaced inclined slots 27 corresponding in number with the socket 26 of the side member 20, said slots and sockets serving to removably retain trouser holding bars 28 in position in the frame. As will be observed by reference to Fig. 3, the slots'27 incline toward the hinged end of the trouser supporting frame so that when said frame is closed onto the wall frame the bars 28 will not drop out. The outward member 22, g
movement of said frame is limited relative to the wall frame by means of the chains 29.
lt will be seen from the foregoinfv that the invention is in the form of a wall cabinet which may be opened out to provide supporting means for a larger number of garments, and that through the described manner of connectingthe parts thereof, they may be folded and separated so that the same will occupy the minimum of storage space.
A latch 42, is employed to hold the trouser supporting frame in closed relation tothe wall frame.
What Iclaim as my invention is 1. ln an apparatus of the character described an oblong rectangular vertical main frame having a transverse strip at its top and bottom, on one side, projecting horizontally therefrom `and adapted to be secured to a wall, means for suspending garwall, and an oblong rectangular frame hinged to one end of said main frame, and foldable Within the latter, detachable means for suspendin garments in said frame, and means for ho ding said frame in extended position from the main frame.
2. In an apparatus of the character described, an oblong rectangular vertical main frame provided with means for securing it to a wall, and holding it at a short distance from said wall, means for supporting garments from said frame between it and the Wall, and a swinging garment supporting frame mounted Within the main frame and movable to extended position out of said frame.
3. In an apparatus of the character described, an oblong rectangular vertical frame having means for supporting garments Within said frame, means for securing said frame to a Wall in spaced relation therefrom and l projections on the upper end of said frame with means for suspending garments therefrom between a Wall and said frame.
4. In an apparatus of the character -described, an oblong rectangular main frame consisting of vertical side strips and horizontal end strips, the upper end of said side strips being each formed with an outstanding inclined bracket having tapering slots, garment suspending rods 1n said slots, a transverse flat strip detachably mounted on and projecting from each end of said side strips and adapted to be fastened to a Wall, and a garment supporting frame mounted in and hinged to said main frame.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aiiix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
