Application filed April 29, 1927. Serial No. 187,555.
The present invention is Concerned with the provision of a display holder which may have a wide range of utility, but which finds one of its preferred embodiments as a dis play holder for strap watches or the like.
Mens wrist-watches or strap-watches as they are known to the trade are rather difficult to artistically display, and it has been customary to display them. in boxes or on blocks so arranged that the watch and one strap overliesthe face of the block, and the other strap is concealed beneath the block, or inserted in'a pocket in the block.
Display holders of thistype as heretofore manufactured have been unsatisfactory in several respects. In the first place, the attempt to define a pocket for the concealed strap end between a" pair of relatively stiff pocket forming members, has resulted in the provision of a stiff-walled pocket into which it is diflicult to introduce the strap, and has furthermore necessitated the use of a considerable amount of velvet or other facing 1 material secured to the face of both pocket forming members. I
In accordance with the present invention,
I eliminate'these difficulties by the provision of a strap-watch holder in which a single piece of velvet is used, and considerable economy of material is thus effected. The pocket is not stiff, and the strap may be readily inserted therein. Preferably, instead of actually forming a pocket I simply recess the back of the block or plate and introduce the strap through an opening in the upper face of the plate, this strap lying in the recess beneath the plate and being effectively concealed. The holders may be made in the form of separate blocks, but are preferably mounted in boxes or jewelry cases of conventional construction.
Other and more general objects of the inventionare to provide a strap watch holder of simple, practical construction, which will be rugged, durableand efficient in use, neat and attractive in appearance, and well suited to facilitate the application of strapwatches thereto.
With the above noted and other objects in V and arrangements of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth and pointed out in the claims. The invention may be more fully understood from the following description in connection with the accompany ing drawings, wherein- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a strap watch holder embodying the present invention, showing the same mounted in a box.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the box and holder, a watch being indicated in dotted lines.
Fig. '3 is a plan view of the cardboard blank from which the holder is formed; and
Fig. 4 is a reduced perspective view showing the blank partiallyrfolded.
The holder of the present invention preferably includes a pair of sheetslO and 11 of cardboard or other equivalent material. The sheets are of uniform width and one sheet is provided with a'relativelyv deeply I ed to lie upon the face of the sheet 10 extending from the recessed end of the sheet and terminating just short of the inner end of the recess so that an approximatel sectoral shaped space, or in other words, t e curved recessed end, is exposed beyond the sheet or plate 11. A sheet of velvet or equivalent material 14 is then laid over the face of the superimposed sheets 10 and 11 and secured by bending it around the edges of the block thus formed and pasting it to the under side of the sheet 10. The velvet is slitted as at 15 along a line coincident with the edge of the sheet 11, thus permitting the insertion of one strap 16 of a Watch 17 through the. slit so that this strap may lie under the plate 11 within the recess 12. The other strap 18 of the watch lies along the upper surface of the velvet covered sheet 11.
l/Vith the block completely formed as seen in Fig. 1, it will have a stepped formation, the velvet covered surface of block 11 lying slightly above the velvet covered surface of the projecting end of the block 10. To apply the watch,'one of the straps is inserted through the slit 15 lying in the recess 12; the watch rests upon the end of this strap which latter overlies the velvet covered projecting end of the block 10, and the other block mayv then be mounted on asuitable claims.
base, or introduced into a box such for instance as the box 20 provided with its hinged cover 21. I
If desired, and for the sake of economy, the two sheets 10 and 11 may integrally connected along folding lines so that vthe proper relative positioning of the two sheets,
I plates, or blocks 10 and 11 may be effected y simply folding the two sheets on fold lines 19, I r
I have used the terms sheet, plate and block to designate the members 10 and 11,
and as a matter of fact, these members may be either sheets, plates or blocks, depending upon their thickness and the nature of the watches which are to be displayed. The members might be formed as very thin cardboard sheets, heavy cardboard plates, or relatively thick wooden blocks, if desired.
I have referred throughout to velvet as a covering for the completed block or display holder, but it will bGObvious that any other appropriate covering might be used.
Various changes and alterations might be made in the general form and arrangement of the parts described without departing from the inventionjfHence I do not wisli'to limit myself-to the details set forth, but Shall consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the appended I claim: y
l. A display holder for strap-watches or the like including a pair of relatively stiff superimposed plates of approximately equal width cooperating to form a body, and a fabric sheet covering the upperface of the body, the upper plate terminating short of one end of the lower plate, the latter having the'like including a pair of relatively stiff i superimposed plates of approximately equal width cooperating to form a body, and a fabric sheet covering the upper face of the body, the upper plate terminating short of one endof the lower plate, the latte-rhaving a longitudinally extending recess therein,
one end of which is disposed beyond the edge of the upper plate and concealed only by the fabric, said fabric having a slit therein registering with the recess whereb, one strap of a watch may be inserted throu h the slit and lie in concealed position in t 'e recess, said plates being integrally bend ably connected to eachother.
3. A display holder for strap-watches or the like including a pair of relatively stiff superimposed plates ofapproximately equal width cooperating to form a body, and a fabric sheet covering theupper face of the body, the upper plate terminating short of one end of the lower plate,the latter having a longitud'inall extending recess therein, one end of whic', is'disposed beyondthe edge of the upper plate and concealed only by the fabric, said fabric having a slit therein registering with therecess whereby one stra of a watch may be inserted through the slit and lie in concealed position'in the-recess, the edges of the fabric folded around the plate edges and pasted to the under-face of the lower plate to retain the plate in proper relative position. 7
