ARVINE r. HUNTER, or LOWELL, AssIeNoR OF TWO-THIRDS' TO HARRY W. BEEGHER AND JAMES L. KYMER, or GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
DISPLAYING-RACK.
$PECIPICATIDN forming part of Letters Patent'No. 376,656, dated January 17, 1888.
Application filed March 28, 1887. Serial No. 232,682. (No model.)
To all whom it mayconcern:
Be it known that I, ARVINE P. HUNTER, of Lowell, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and use ful Improvements in Displaying-Racks; and I do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in theart to which it appertains to makeand use thesame.
My invention relates to an improvement in displaying racks for paper, music, curtains, &c., the object of the same being to providea device which will be simple, light, durable,
and convenient in use.
A further object is to provide a device that can be folded, andthus economize space when desirable.
A further object is to furnish a display-rack that will exhibit the articles placed upon itin a conspicuous manner when it is extended for use,that is portable and capable of attachment to a wall; also, exhibit theartioles when folded back against the wall.
With these ends in view my invention consists in certain features of construction and combinations of parts, as will be hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a view in perspective of my device secured to a wall in folded adjustment. Fig. 2 is a view of the same in open adjustment.
A represents a board adapted to be secured to a wall, having the mechanism which secures the rack attached thereto.
13 represents the frame of the rack, made, preferably,of metal, rectangularin shape, having parallel bars b running between the sides of the frame and attached to them in any suitable manner. The lower bar, I), ofthe parallel bars 1) projects a short distance through the side pieces of the frame B in order to enter a perforatiomb in brackets ,O, which'are attached to the wall or board, thus allowing of the free vertical swinging movement of the frame. The brackets O are preferably made of metal bent at right angles, and each having a perforation in one of its ends to permit of the introduction of the projecting ends of bar b,while its other end is secured to the wallboard. The frame B is further provided with a second bar, 11 located at or approximately at its middle portion, having projecting ends '0,
'on which the supporting-rails are journaled.
.D represents the supporting-rails, made, preferably, of metal, and secured at oneend to the parallel bars I) in swinging adjustment, andsecured at their opposite ends to guide rods or bars d by bending their lower or free ends in the form of a loop around the guide' bars or rods (1, said guide bars or rods being securedto the wall or board A. V
The guide-rods dare made, preferably, of metal, and may, if desired, be provided with a head, d, attached thereto, or made integral" therewith, for the purpose of limiting the downward or vertical movementof'theframe.
A latch, E, constructed, preferaby, of spring metal, is secured to the wall or board'A in such a manner that when the frame is folded the latch will engage the upper portion of the 7c frame and hold the frame in closed adjustment. 7 The advantages possessed by my device are evident-,inasmuch as it-does away with the custom heretofore resorted to by merchants in keeping the articles to be displayed in drawers,
and this is especially the case with tissue-pa per,which,'when papers of different'colors are piled upon one another, become mixed, making it difficult, particularly at night, to dis tinguish the desired shade to be selected and 8 the constant handling destroys many of "the sheets, and, together with the time consumed in' selecting a desired shade, makes the selling of the article expensive. The articles to be displayed are folded over the parallel cross .8 5 I bars I), and whenthe rack is folded astrip of i the material on each bar will be clearly seen and the shade readily distinguished. When a shade is selected and the frame is in closed ad justment, the latch E at the top of the wallc board is raised out-of engagement with the frame and the frame lowered,when, byaslight application of moisture to the thumb and 1111- gers, together with a slight pressure, anyone of the sheets (if paper is the article) may be 5 H detached.
It is evident that slight changes might be resorted to in theform and arrangement of the several parts described without departingfrom the spirit and scope of my invention; henceI 1C0 do not wish to limit myself strictly to the ex act construction herein set forth; but,
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- v 1. In a display-rack, the combination, with a rectangular frame pivotally secured at one end to a support and a series of cross-bars on which the goods to be displayed are hung, of stationary guide-bars rigidly secured to a support at a point below the pivoted end of the frame and the supporting-rods pivotally secured at one end to the frame, the other or lower ends of said bars being loosely attached to the guide-bars and adapted to slide thereon, substantially as set forth.
2. In a display-rack, the combination, with a rectangular frame pivotally secured at one end to a support and provided with aseries of ARVINE 1 HUNTER.
