UNITED STATES PATENT ERNEST M. MOORE AND WILBUR IB. TIMBERLA KE, OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOBS TO JOHN B. TIMBERLAKE AND SONS,- OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF MICHIGAN.
s'rANnFon DISPLAYING DOLLS AND THE LIKE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that We, ERNEST M. MOORE and VILBUR B. TIMBERLAKE, citizens of the United States, residing at Jackson, in the county of Jackson and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Stands for Displaying Dolls'and the Like, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention has for its object to produce a stand or support for displaying dolls and similar articles thatsha'll be of strong, simple construction, and capable of being manufactured at low cost. a
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective View of the stand. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section thereof. Fig. 3 is a detail view illustrating a modification. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the articlesupporting element of the stand, differing in construction from that illustrated in the other views.
Referring to the drawings, A designates the base of the stand, and B an upright standard secured thereto. The standard is preferably formed of a metal rod bentto prefer to form an aperture, a, through the top of the ridge which is formed by strik; ing up or swaging the base as aforesaid; and to pass the lower end of the standard through this aperture and into the groove a. This brings the standard well within the periphery of the base, which is desirable.
The standard is united to the base by soldering the foot piece within-the groove a, or by otherwise firmly securing it therein.
' At the upper end of the standard is a guide plate C in which is an opening a, preferablyofoblong sha e and w1th which communicates a slot 0 extending to the pe- The support D for the doll or other object to beheld and dis layed consists of a pair of bars united at t eir lower ends and Specification of Letters Patent. Patented June 20, 1911, Application filed February v24%, 1911. Serial No, 610,475.
* provided at their'u pper endswith curved encircling arms. It is preferably formed from a single piece of elastic wire shaped as illustrated in the drawings, to have the two.
bars, (Z, (l, connected at their lower ends by .a loop 03 bentto lie in a plane substantially at right angles to the plane in which are disposed the bars d, and being of a size to encircle the standard B. The bars diverge as they extend upward from the loo 0!, tending to stand apart by reason of the elasticity of the material of which the support is formed. The encircling arms, 01",
d, are fornied by carrying the ends of the Wire forward, in a plane substantially at right angles to the plane in which are disposed the upright bars d, and curving them in a manner. .to suit the article to be sup-.-.
ported. I
When the stand is in use the bars d, d,
are arranged within the opening 0 in the plate C at the head of the standard, in which they are free to slide as the support is adjusted up or'down. The elasticity of the support holds the upright bars thereof in frictional engagement with the plate, thus maintaining it'in any vertical position to which it may be adjusted. The slot 0 permits the bars to be readily removed from the plate 0, as for instance when it was desired to have the arms (2 separated an unusually great distance to engage with an object of large size.; -This slot could be sufficiently closed, after the bars have entered the apeb, ture. 0, if desired, to prevent any accidental disengagement of the support D from theplate 0, though under ordinary"conditions we preferthat it may remain open, as represented in Fig. 1.
In Figs. 1 and 2, the plate C is represented as a part separate from the standard B, but riveted to its upper end, and this is the preferred construction. However, the upper end of the standard may be bent over and.
flattenedto form a plate C integral therewith in which is formed an opening 0, as indicated in Fig. 3. V
- In Fig. 4 we have illustrateda form of the supporting element of the stand different from that illustrated in Figs.'1 and 2 in that the-two bars at d are separate from each otherbut united 'by a plate 0 adapted to engage with the standard B, into which the ends of the saidbars are insertedand sea cured, and constituting, like the loop (1' the standard-engaging slide of the article supv the base, there being an aperture through the top of the said ridgeand within the periphery of the base, a standard consisting of a rod, the lower end of which is bent at substantially a right angle to the main stem to constitute a footthat passes through the said aperture and enters the seat in thebase and is secured therein, and a support .for the article to be displayed carried by the standard, substantially as set forth. 2. A supportfor dolls and the'like comprising a standard, a guide at the upperiend thereof, and an elastic support for the article to be displayed formed of wire shaped to have a pair of diverging bars that are provided at their upper ends with arms for supporting the article to be displayed and are united at their lower ends by a loop that encircles the standard and lies in a plane that is substantially at right angles to the plane in which lie the bars, the bars passing through the guide and being held close together thereby, and the support as a whole beiing'vertically adjustable upon the standar v 3. A support for dollsvand the like, consisting of a base, a standard secured thereto, a ide plate at the upper end of the stander in which is formed an opening connected with the periphery of the plate by a slot, and an elastic support for the article to be dis played formed of wire shaped to have a pair ofdiverging bars united at their lower ends by a loop andprovided at their upper ends with arms for encircling the article to be displayed, the said loop encircling the standard and, the bars passing through the opening in the guide late, and the support as a whole being vertically adjustable upon the standard, substantially as setforth.
