This invention has general reference to col lapsible articles constructed of sheet material such as cardboard, corrugated paperboard or equivalent bendable stock, and the same is particularly concerned with an improvement in display stands for supporting and displaying merchandse in addition to affording surfaces adapted to bear advertising matter relative to the merchandise.
The invention primarily comprehends an improved collapsible display stand in which the various elements thereof are permanently secured together to provide a unitary structure which may bev readily collapsed so as to occupy a limited amount of space for storage and shipment.
As a further object, the invention is directed to a collapsible display stand which is fashioned from sheet material so as to provide, when set up, an upper portion dening a tray and a lower portion functioning as a support for the upper tray defining portion, said upper portion when set up and supported serving as a means for sustaining the structure against collapsing.
As a further feature thereof, the instant invention embodies a structure of the indicated character in which the lower portion thereof is formed with inwardly directed flaps, the lower edges of which engage the suppo-rting surface and the upper edges of which flaps support the tray defining portion so that the weight of the merchandise arranged thereon for display is carried by the flaps.
The invention further comprehends a display stand structure of the indicated character which is subject to production in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and proportions.
With the above enumerated and other objects in view, the invention is disclosed in greater detail in the following specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:

Fig. 11 is a view of the blank from which said Y stand is constructed.
Fig. 12 is a bottom plan View similar to Fig. 10 illustrating the stand in partially folded con-v dition,
Referring to the drawings by characters of reference and more particularly tothe form of the invention illustrated in Figs. 1 to 7, inclusive, the display stand includes a body which is preferably fashioned from a single sheet of material cut and scored to provide a front wall l5, a pair of opposite side walls i6, and a pair of rear wall portions il, each having a, flap i8.v
The side walls l@ are hingedly connected to the opposite side edges of the front wall l5 by score lines iii which extend upwardly from the lower edge in parallel relation to each other and the upper ends of which terminate at the lower ends of slits 2i? which extend downwardly from the upper edge of the stock in alignmentv withthe score lines i9. The rear wall portions l1 are hingedly connected to the outer rear edges of the side walls IS by score lines 2 l, while the flaps i8 are hingedly connected at their vertical inner rear edges to the rear wall portions il by score lines 22. The score lines i9, 2l and 22 in the instant embodiment are parallel so that the front and side walls l5 and i6 and the rear wall portions l'l and flaps i8 may be bent at an angle to each other to provide a rectangular box like The aps i8 are each formedy as `an area of the lower and outer part of the rear wall portions as illustrated in the blank shown in.
Fig. 6, and the upper portion of each lap is out to define an inclined upper edge 23 extending rearwardly from the free forward edge 24, the upper edge Z3 terminating in a depending notch 25, the rear edge 2E of which notch extends up wardly at an angle and merges-into a slit iii terminating at the score line 22 and deined by the lower edge 28 of the upper portion of the rear Wall l1.
The upper part of the rear wall portions l1 is secured in overlapping relation in any suitable manner, such as by metalstitching 23 or by gluing or any other equivalent fastening means,v
and preferably this overlapping securement prou duces a body of rectangular configuration in horizontal cross section which is collapsible in the manner shown in Figs. 5 and 7 to dispose one side wall I6 and the front wall I substantially in alignment with each other and the other side wall I6 and the overlapped rear wall portions Il' in alignment with each other with one pair of aligned walls in a plane substantially parallel to the other pair of aligned walls.
the front wall I5 and between the upper edge Y thereof and between the slits 2li is provided with rio line 3| terminating at its opposite ends at the upper and lower parallel score linesV 35 and 3| extending transversely thereof, the lower score lower ends of the slits 26. The upper score line 30 is spaced below the upper edge of the blank as shown in Fig. 6 and said upper edge thereof between the slits 20 is provided with a pair of inwardly extending notches 32 spaced apart a distance equal to the spacing of the naps I8 when the stand is in its set up condition. A separate piece of stock 33 of a width and height corresponding to the front wall |5'is secured to the forward face of thestock between the slits im and between the Upper score line and the upper edge of the stock in. any suitable manner such as by metal stitching 3d or any ecuivalent means and the upper edge of the piece :i3 is provided with corresponding notches 35 registering with the notches 32.
'Ihe side walls i6 are provided with diagonal score lines 35 which extend upwardly at an angle from the lower terminals of the slits 2t to a point adiacent the juncture of the rear wall portions l1 of the side walls is. and the triangular corner portions 37 thus defined are bent inwardly and secured to the inner faces of the side walls to form inturned fla-o portions. Obviously, when the stand is in collapsed condition, the piece 33 is substantially parallel with the front wall as illustrated in. Figs. 5 and '7.
In setting un the stand, the side walls I5 are swung` from the collapsed position to a right angular relation to the front and rear walls i5 and l1 as illustrated in and the flaps I8 are disposed parallel to each other and extend forwardly from the rear wall l l'. The upper portion 38 of the stock above the front wall and lying between the score lines 30 and 3| is bent rearwardly along the score line 3| into overlying relation to and into engagement with the upper edges 23 of the dans so as to support the same, while the remaining unner portion 39 is bent downwardly and the notches 32 thereof together with the notched edge of the niece 33 are engaged .respectively with the flans l!! and the notched portions thereof are received in the notches 25 of the flaps to lock the iiaps in their active position. The portion 3S thus serves as the bottom of the merchandise tray or bin, the piece 33 as the rear wall of the tray or bin and the upper portions of the side walls I5 as the sides of the tray or bin. The merchandise is arranged on the portion 32 and its weight is effectively sustained by the :flaps i8 which extend downwardly to the supporting surface. When thus set up, the stand is prevented from collapsing by the interengagement of the trayforming portion 3i? and the piece 33 with the side of the body.
In order to collapse the stand it is only necessary to pull upwardly on the piece 33 to disengage the notched portions and 33 from the notch portions 25, swing the portion 38 into alignmentwith the front wall l5 and dispose the piece 33 parallel to the front wall and then swing the side wall portions and the flaps i3 laterally thus.
wall l5 by a member 40 which is secured to the front wall and is formed with rearwardly directed hinged wings 4| secured by metal stitching 42 adjacent the free rear edges to the flaps I8 adjacent the free forward edges. Also in this instance, the lower edges 43 of the wings are disposed in the same horizontal plane as the lower edges 29a of the flaps I8 while the upper edges ofthe wings are cut out to provide stepped edges dal which are disposed below the upper edges 23 ofthe flaps I3.
In this form of the invention, the stock between the slits 2l] and lying between the upper edge of the blank and the score line 3| is provided with score lines 45 and 46 for bending the same into stepped formation to provide a ledge portion Lil, a riser portion 48 and a ledge portion 49. A separate piece 59 scored to provide a ledge portion 5| hinged to the upright portion 52 is provided, which ledge portion is overlapped and secured to the ledge portion 49. The ledge portions 49 and 5| are adapted to rest upon the upper edges 23 of the flaps I8 and the upright portion of the piece 5l) rests against the overlapped rear wall portion of the body.
As in the previous form, the collapsing of the floor stand is accomplished by pulling upwardly on the upright portion 52 to withdrawn the stepped tray forming elements from between the walls of the body thus permitting the body to be collapsed by swinging the walls laterally as shown in Fig. 12 to a flattened condition, the iiaps I8 and wings 4| folding to lie between the folded body walls.
