orLoLo'rn: RACK.
Application filed March 5,1925. Serial No. 13,029.
The particular purpose of this invention is to provide a means for greatly reducing the space for keeping oil-cloth or the like, as well as for greatly facilitating, and reducing the labor of, displaying and dispensing such material, in stores.
In the accompanying drawings forming part hereof:
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of a storage, display and dispensing rack, embodying the invention Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof;
Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section of the upper part of the racl; on an enlarged scale;
Fig. at is a fragmentary plan View;
F 5 is a vertical cross-section of the upper part of a rack ofmodified form;
Fig. 6 is a vertical cross-section of the upper part of still another form; and
Fig. 7 is a partial front view of this form.
The form of Figs. 1 to 1 wiil now be described.
This rack is a movable rack mounted on pedestal feet 2, from which rise uprights 3, the frame being suitably tied and braced by members 1 and being of an approximate width to hold rolls of oil-cloth a. A tier of compartments, or supports for rolls of the material, rises on either side of the frame. Each of these supports, in the preferred form, is made of wire rod, in one or more pieces, bent to present end members 6 fixed in the uprights 3 and raised toward the front to carry t'ansverse, connecting, rollretaining members 7. These tiers of roll compartments rise to a height at which the rolls can be conveniently lifted andthe sup ports may occupy alternate levels at opposite sides, as seen in Figs. 2 and 3.
On the tops of the uprights a trough or receptacle S is mounted, to receive a roll selected from any one of the roll compartments. From this receptacle the material may be drawn downward at the front of the rack to show the pattern more fully than it appears on the rolls in the open storage compartments, and for cutting off a length of it, if it is desired. The trough or receptacle, as preferably constructed, has a vertical front wall 9 and an inclined rear wall 10. The inclined wall urges the roll placed thereon against a supporting roller 11, the ends of which are journaled in the end walls of the trough. The sheet of ma terial b is drawn from the roll over the top of the front wall 9 and down at the front of the rack. A graduated scale or stick 12 is supported vertically on a bracket 13 at one side of the front of the rack, extending downward from the region of the top receptacle. The scale is conveniently a yard stick with its upper end curtailed to allow for the inclined disposition of the upper portion of the sheet of material drawn from the roll.
Two plates, or a grooved plate, a3, are affixed across the front wall 9 near the top, to form a grooved cutting guide 1 1 along which a knife or scissors can be quickly run to sever the desired length of material from the roll. Directly below this gu'de the upper part of the depending sheet is held by a swinging, gravitational clamp 15, cooperating with a transverse V-shaped notch 16 in the wall, into which the clamp pinches the material as seen in Fig. 3. A clamp for this purpose is advantageously made of an iron of angle section, affording a corner 17 to enter the groove and a projecting handle lip 18; the ends of the bar being bent or provided with arms 19 which embrace the ends of the receptacle 8, where they are pivoted at 20. The relations are such that when the clamp is thrown back against a stop 21 as indicated in broken lines in Fig. 3 and in full lines in Fig. 2, the top of the receptacle is free to receive a roll and the sheet can be drawn downward without difficulty. When the desired amount of the n1aterial has been measured off on the scale 12, the clamp is swung to a downwardly inclined position against the notch 16, thereby firmly holding the material while and after being out.
The form of rack shown in Fig. 5 is similar to the one just described, but has a double receptacle 8 8 at the top, with a clamp 15 centrally pivoted, which can be swung to cooperate with notches 16, 16 in the front walls of the two receptacle compartments, beneath the two guides 14. This clamp advantageously made of channel iron, to present two clamping corners. Both sides of the rack, in this instance, are front, and two scales 12 are accordingly provided.
The form of Figs. 6 and 7 contains the same general features as those which have been described, and illustrates how the rack may be constructed when it is desired to place it upon a wall. The roll storage compartments, in this instance, may be formed by inclined shelves 6 in a frame comprising side members 3*, on the front edge of one of which a scale 12 is arranged. A receptacle 8 is formed at the top of the rack, where the selected roll rests against an inclined wall Qlwhich retains it While the sheet of material is drawn downward past the vertical Wall 9 and in front of the storage compartments. The wall 9 is provided with a'cutting guide 1 and with a notch 16 to cooperate with aclamp 15, like those hereinb'efore described. 7 i
Still other forms and modifications will suggest themselves to the skilled mechanic.
What is claimed as new is:
1. A -rack for the storage, display and dispensing of material such as oil-cloth, comprising a frame bearing a tier of open compartments for rolls of the material, a receptacle, above the tier of compartments to receive a selected roll, and from which the material may be drawn down at the front of the rack, a cutting guide extending across the front of the rack toward the top,'=and a swinging gravitational clamp on the upper part of the rack to hold the material below said guide. y
:2. A rack for the storage, display and disof the rack, a cutting guide extending across the front of the rack toward the top, the
upper part of the rack below said guide having a transverse notch, and a. swinging clamp on said part ofthe rack formed to pinch thematerial into said notch, substantially asset forth. I
3.1m display and dispensing equipment for material such as oil-cloth, an elevated receptacle'for a roll of material, from Which the material may be drawn downward, a cuttingguide arranged transversely of the front of the receptacle, and a clamp to hold the material below the cutting guide, said clamp formed of a cornered bar cooperative with a transverse notch in the front of the receptacle and having arms at its opposite ends embracing and pivoted to the ends of the receptacle, substantially as set forth.
