To all whom t may concern Be it "known that I, CARL Domme, Sr., a. citizen of the UnitedStates, and residing at Chicago,`in the county of Cook and State of Illinois,-liave invented a new and useful Im-` provement in Adjustable Display-Racks, of which the following is a' ,complete specification.
The main objects of this invention areto provide an improved display racli; to ro vide a display rack in which the sizes o the lcompartments may be readily. adjustable; and to provide a display rack -of' cheap, simple and strong construction having 1mproved means for securing the partitions in place. p
The invention consists of matters here1nafter described in the specification and more fully pointed out and defined in the appended claims.
In lhe drawings: Figure lis a front elevation of a display rack embodied in this invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse sectionof the rack. Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view of the rack with the end member removed. Fig. 4 is an enlar ed fragmentary perspective view of a modi ed form of the rack. l f
As shown in the drawings: Referring first to Figs. 1 to`3 inclusive, a frame is provided which comprisesv a relatively high back member 1, a relatively low front member 2, and downwardly and forwardly sloping or inclined end members 3, all of which are preferably formed of sheet metal or other light, strong and rigid materials. v
Secured .to the back and end members are the shelves 4 which are arranged stair-wise',
. that is each succeeding one from the front being above and to the rear of the preceding one.
Extending -along the inner side of the back and front members, at the top thereof, are the corrugated partition supports 5 and 6, which are preferably formed of separate strips of meta'l attached to said front and rear members, though said members may themselves be corrugated to provide the sup- 4 ports if desired.
The partitions 7 extend from the front to the rear of the rack, with their ends projecting into said corrugations which-.act to hold the artitions in an upright position. -The partitions rest on their lower edges on the front edges of the shelves 4, and each partition is preferably' formed of a strip of sheet ,specification of Letters Patent. y Application mea November ie, 1911. 'semi No. escasa.

ofthe partition and rest on the tops of the shelves. Said ears extend vertically and act to hold the cards or other articles in the compartments formed by the partitions and shelves, They side or end members 3 are likewise provided with inturned ears 9 which serve the same purpose as the ears 8. -For the pur ose of holding k@the partitions 1n place a loc {ing bar 10 is secured to the top of the" back member 1 and has a forwardly projecting flange 11 which overlaps the upper ends of the partitions. Said bar and back member are provided `with registering apertures in which are secured locking clips 12 which hold the bar in place. Said bar is preferably formed of a strip of metal bent longitudinally to form a loop which hangs over the top ofthe 'back member, and from the lower edge of which projects the flange.
In the construction shown in Fig. 4 the back member 13 does not extend below the upper shelf, and the end members 14 are relatively narrow. Hinged to the back member 13 by means of clips 15 are legs 16 which are adapted to extend downwardly and rearwardly from the back member to support the frame. A rod or locking bar 17- extends through the upper ends of the end members in position to overlap the upper ends of the partitions.
The operation of the construction shown is as follows: The partitions are adjusted to provide compartments of the desired width, and when the lookin bar is secured in lace the -partitions are rigidly held in position. The cards or other articles placed in the Patented aug. 13,1912.
metal folded longitudinally upon itselfI tol provide a double thickness, and at a pointy above the front edge of each shelf a pair of ears 81are turned oppositely from the sides compartments are prevented from falling forwardly by the ears 8 and 9, and they are fully exposed to view.
Obviously many details of the construc' tion shown may be varied or omitted without departing from the scope of the claims.
I claim:
1. A display rack comprising a frame, shelves arranged stairwise in the frame, partitions extending from front to rear transversely of the stairs, corrugated members at front and rear adapted to receive the ends 'of the partitions, and an L-shaped locking bar, one 'arm of said bar being formed of a strip of metal bent longitudinally to form a loop, said loop being adapted to hang' over, the back of the` frame, the othe;` arm of said bar being adapted to project over one of said corrugated members.
2. A display rack comprising a frame, shelves arranged stairwise in the frame, partitions extending from front to rear transversely of the stairs, corrugated members at front and rear adapted to receive the ends of the partitions,an L-shaped locking bar, one arm of which engages the back of the frame, there being perforations in said lockingbar and the back, and clips adapted to pass through said perforations and retain said locldng-bar-in place.
3. lA display rack comprising a frame,
shelves arranged vstair-Wise in said frame,
partitions extending from front to rear transversely of the stairs, corrugated members at front and rear adapted to receive the ends ofthe partition, the'ends of said frame being perforated, and a locking bar extending from one side of the frame to the other and through said perforations, and being .disposed above said partitions, said locking bar being provided with a screw-threaded end and a nut exterior of said frame.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my namev in the presence of two witnesses.
