WIBDBMBIBR UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH WIEDEMEIER, JR., AND ANTON A. WIEDEMEIER, OF CARROLL, IOWA.
DISPLAY APPARATUS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 17, 1907.
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known .that we, JOSEPH WIEDE- MEIER, Jr., and ANTON A. WIEDEMEIER, citizens of the United States, residing at Carroll, in the county of Carroll and State:y
of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Display Apparatus, of which the following is a speciiication.
This invention relates to means for displaying lace, embroidery and like material, and the primary object is to provide means, whereby the material can be mounted on a holding card from which it can be readily unwrapped, and at the same time is displayed over a backing of different color and character so that the pattern and type can be readily seen.
A further object is to provide means Whereby a large number of holders can be employed, and each is open to inspection without the necessity of handling the others, thus avoiding to a material degree the danger of soiling and rumpling the materials.
The preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a side elevation of one type of display apparatus. Fig. 2 is a detail sectional view on an enlarged scale, showing one of the holding cards in elevation. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view therethrough. Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view on the line 4 4 of Fig. 3.
Similar reference-numerals designate corresponding parts in all the iigures of the drawings.
In the embodiment'llustrated, a support is employed preferably comprising a base 5 with a central standard 6 on which are located a series of plates 7. These plates, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4, have marginal sockets 8 from which extend channels or seats 8a. The particular shape and construction of the supporting means is not important. Outstanding arms 9 have inner downturned ends 10 constituting pintles which are rotatably engaged in the sockets 8 and are normally engaged in the channels or seats 8a. A plurality of holding cards are detachably mounted on these arms. In the present embodiment, the cards consist of plates 11 of sheet metal, each plate having one `end doubled, as shown at 12 to obviate any sharp edges. The other ends are curved to form transverse open ended sockets 13. These sockets receive the outstanding arms 9 so that the cards are swingingly suspended, but are readily removable. The lace, embroidery or other material is wrapped longitudinally around the plates, and is retained against transverse detachment by offset longitudinal iianges 14.
y In order todprominently display the patterns in and types of the material, backing sheets 15, preferably of cloth of different color from the material are placed behind the last or outermost layer of material on the card. These backing sheets have their upper ends looped to provide transverse sockets 16, and in the sockets are placed eX- tensile and contractile cords 17 preferably of elastic. Hooks 18 are secured to the ends of the cords and detachably engage in the ends of the sockets 13 of the cards.
In filling the card, the lace, embroidery or other material is wrapped thereupon in the ordinary manner, but before the last row or layer is placed thereon, the backing sheet 15 is secured in place. The last row is then completed, and the card is hung upon the supporting means. It will be evident that inasmuch as the backing sheet is of different colorl from the material, said material will be prominently displayed. Whenever a customer desires a piece from any particular design, the card containing the same is removed, the proper portion measured off, and cut in the usual manner. The backing sheet is readily removable in order to permit winding and unwinding of the materlal, and thus can always be properly positioned with respect thereto.
From the foregoing, it is thought that the construction, operation, and many advantages of the herein described invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art, without further description, and it will be understood that various changes in the size, shape, proportion, and minor details of construction, may be resorted to without departing from the spiritor sacriiicing any of the advantages of the invention.
Having thus fully described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holder upon which embroidery, lace and like material can be wrapped, said holder having a socket at one end, of a backing sheet arranged to be placed between the layers of material, devices for supporting the sheet, said devices engaging in the socket, and supporting means for the holder engaging in the socket.
2. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination With a supporting arm, of a holding card having a transverse socket in one end that detachably receives the arm, a backing sheet, an elastic cord engaged with said backing sheet, and hooks secured to the ends of the cord and detachably engaging in the ends of the socket.
3. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holder upon which embroidery, lace and like material can be wrapped, of a backing sheet arranged to be placed between the layers of material, and means for detachably securing the backing sheet to the holder.
4. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holder upon which embroidery, lace and4 like material can be wrapped, of a backing sheet arranged to be placed between the layers of material, and hooks carried by the sheet and detachably engaging the holder.
5. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holder upon which embroidery, lace and like material can be wrapped, of a backing sheet arranged to be placed between the layers of material, devices that detachably engage the holder, and yielding means connecting the devices and sheet.
6. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holder upon which embroidery, lace and like material can be wrapped, of a backing sheet arranged to be placed between the layers of the material, hooks that detachably engage the holder, and a yielding connection between the hooks that engage and support the sheet.
7. In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a holding card having a transverse socket at one end, of a backing sheet having a transverse socket at one end, hooks that detachably engage in the ends of the card socket, and a yielding connection passing lthrough the backing sheet socket and secured to the hooks.
8, In a display holder of the character set forth, the combination with a support, of a swinging arm pivoted on the su port, a holding card having side retaining anges, and a transverse socket in one end, said socket detachably receiving the arm, a backing sheet having a transverse socket in its upper end, an elastic cord passing through the socket in the backing sheet, and hooks secured to the ends of the cords and detachably engaging in the ends of the socket of the holder card.
In testimony, that we claim the foregoing as our own, we have hereto aliiXed our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
