INDEX OB DISPLAY FRAME.
To r/Z l/fzo//i f 'muy {foncer/i "-Be it known that i. Janes ll. lhNn, Jr., aicitij/.en ot" the Ynit'ed States. and resident 'otNorth Tonawanda, in the count) of Xi- S'agara `and tate`ot' New York, have in- .'ve-nted newand uscl'ul Improvements in Iiidex or Display iframes, oi which the tol,A Alowing is a speciicaton. l
AThis invention relates to index or display d-evi 'es oi" the kiml having a series of' stiti' irames or leaves hinged to a support., and-itsolfiject isl to provide means wherebyv the frames; or leaves may he opened wide and iiat relatively to each other. notwithi'fstaiiding the frames or leaves are numerous` v'and crowded and are stiti' and inflexible. This is accomplished'hv the use of a hinge. 'having two pivoted axes connecting each i fame with the common support, as herein- 'other matter. Each display framecarries at its inner edge a pair o t pivot .pins or hooks e, one at thetop and one 'at the botv `Between each display frame and the` supiport, is an intermediate frame pivotally connected at its inner edge to the support and at its outer edge to theleat1 or panel. Each intermediate frame, as' herein shown, con'iprises a pair of hinge members f, f, one' at the top and oney at the bottom, and
a brace, preferably vconsisting of a plate or h members bar g,-1'igidly uniting the `hinge are preff fj The two hinge members 50 pivot pin 7i at its inner end, to engage one of the sockets c voi the support, and a-soeket 'i at its outer Aend lto receive the pivot pin c of the vdisplay frame 55- .The intermediate frame is readily removf Specification of Letters Patent.

ahle t'rom the support b v merely lifting the pivot pins /i out, ot' the vsockets c, and the display frames are similarly removable trom the intermediate. frames. Thus the corres|iondingr parts are interchaiigeablc. the intermediate frames may he applied 'to index o1' display devices already in use, and the intermediate frames and display frames may be applied tosupports ot' various sizes and shapes; for it will he understood that the invention is b v no means limited to the circular iorm of support shown.
' ln a device ot this type, using stitiA and inficxihle leaves hinged close together it is impossible to open out two adjacent leaves suilciently wide andv fiat to. secure the maximum of convenience and facility in using the' device. But with the doable pivot hinge of the present invention a much wider opening of the, leaves is possible. Asthe top and bottom'hinge iiieinhers areI rigidly con-v nectcd the device as a whole loses nothing `1n rigidity; the intermediate yframes may be easily` applied to index and display devices now in conin'ion use;v and all the parts heing relnovable the intermediate frames may be removed and the display Jframes directly mounted on the support, it'lso few leav'es are used as not to interfere with their wide opening.
l claim: v
1.. In a deviceof the el'iaraeter described, a support, a series ot Stiti' display trames, a series of rigid intermediate frames each consisting `ot" Tipper and lowerhorizontal hinge harsrigidly connected by an upright bar, and pin and socket connections pivotally connecting the hinge bars of said interi'iie'diate frames at their inner ends to the-support lto swing freely` without axial movement and at' their outer ends to the several display frames, vsaid `intermediate frames being. detachable both from `said support and from sa'iddisplay frame without disti'lrhing theparts of said support or of said interi'nediate frames.
2. In a device of the character described,
'a support'havinga series of pivot pin sockg ets at top 4and bottoni, a series of intermediate frames each having a pivot pin aty top' and bottom arranged in an. axis neiir the inner edge or said frame and'engaging a :pair ot said` sockets, each intermediate.`
frame also having a Socket at top and' bot:
toni /arranged in an axis near the outer edge of said frame, and a series of stiff displat frmnes each having a pivot pin at top or display device of the character described,
comprising :L pair of hinge members spaced apart, each having e pivot pin at one end Signed by me at North Tonawanda, New
York, this eleventh dey of September, 1915.
