SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 785,430, dated March 21, 1905. Application filed .Tune 27, 1904. Serial No. 214,406.
To all 1072/0111/ it 11m/,y crm/cern,.-
Be it known that I, OTTO H. MUEHLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mount Vernon, in the county of Posey and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Display-Rack, of which the following is a specilication.
This invention relates to devices for displaying goods for exhibition purposes, more particularly for displaying wall-paper and similar goods to the best advantage, and has for its object to produce a simply-constructed and convenient rack whereby the various patterns which go to make up the combinations employed in decorating a room are displayed in the same order and present the same general appearance as when on the wall and without injury to the goods employed upon the rack.
lVith these and other objects in view, which will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in certain novel features of construction, as hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and in which corresponding parts are denoted by like designating characters, is illustrated the preferred form of the embodiment of the invention capable of carrying the same into practical operation, it being understood .that the invention is not necessarily limited thereto, as various changes in the shape, proportions, and general assemblage of the parts may loe resorted to without departing from the principle of the invention or sacriiicing any of its advantages, and the right is therefore reserved of making all the changes and modifications which fairly fall within the scope of the `invention and the claim made therefor.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view, partially`in section, of the improved device. Fig. 2 is a sectional side view on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.
The improved device comprises a rack or frame of spaced side members 10 11, connected at their upper ends by a transverse bar 12, from which the suspension member 13 extends, and connected at points spaced above their lower ends by a transverse bar 14, preferably circular in shape and rotative or not, as preferred.
Formed in the side members 10 11 just below the upper cross-bar 12 are a plurality of spaced apertures 15 16, and in transverse alinement and formed through the side members below the cross-bar 14 are similar alined perforations 17 18. l The two sets of perforations are to receive pins 19 20by means of which the various rolls of wall-paper (indicated at 21 22) are supported between the side members, as shown.
To apply the goods to be displayed to the device, a roll of the paper to be employed upon the ceiling, as indicated at 21, is suspended by its ends upon the pins 19, thrust through a pair of the oppositely-disposed apertures 15 16 and entering the centers of the roll and unrolling sufticiently of the same to pass beneath the cross-bar 14 and back again to the roll of paper at the rear, between which and the unrolled portion the end is tucked to hold it in position. A roll of the paper to be employed upon the side walls (indicated at 22) is then supported in a similar manner by the pins 20, thrust through the apertures 17 18, and any desired amount unrolled and permitted to hang loosely or the end passed upward in the rear of the unrolled portion and tucked7 in between the roll and the unrolled portion in the same manner as witlithe ceiling-pattern roll. By this means a portion of the patterns of the ceiling and wall paper will be displayed in the same general order and present substantially the same appearance as on the wall and without injury to the goods, as will be obvions.
The rack will generally be suspended from a point near the ceiling of the salesroom, so that a comparatively long portion of the wallpatterns may be displayed.
The patterns may be quickly changed when required, or a plurality of the racks may be employed in the same salesroom.
The racks will generally be of wood, but may be of other material, if required.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is# A display-rack comprising spaced side members connected at one end by a transverse member having suspending means attached thereto, and with a transverse bar connecting the side members at points spaced from their lower ends, said side members having spaced transversely-alined apertures adjacent to said npper Connecting-bar and beneath said lower connecting-bar for adjustably supporting snspending pins or rods.
In testimony that I Claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
