Description
D. L. CORTHELL ADVERTISING DEVICE Filed Nov. 15, 1923 Dec, 2, 1924.
Patented Dec. 2, 1,924.
Istres ADVERTISING DEVICE.
Application led November 15, 1923. Serial No. 674,879.
T 0 all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, D. L. CVORIIIELL, vaci-tizen of the United States, residing ,at St. Joseph, in the county of Buchanan, State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Advertising Device; and I .do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appe-rtains to make and use the same.
The invention relates :to advertising novelties and has for its object to provide a device of this character which may be used for advertising subject matter, however is applicable to other subject matter. The device comprises hingedly connected cardboard members, on the inner sides of which may be printed advertising matter, or other subject matter and means whereby when the hinged sections are moved apart to open position, a Hag will be raised on one of the hinged members, against the action of a rubber, and through the medium of a cord attached to the flag, and extending upwardly through an eye, and thence downwardly and thro-ugh an eye, and having its end anchored to the hinged section opposite the flag carrying hinged section.
rIhe flag is preferably raised adjacent and in registration with a printed flag pole on one of the hinged sect-ions and the representation of a person in a position assumed during a Hag raising operation.
With the above and other objects in view the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts as hereinafter set forth., shown in the drawing', described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device showing the same parti-ally open.
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the device, showing the device partially open, and one of the hinged members broken away to show the securing means.
Figure 8l is a perspective view of the lower end of the elastic member.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of they but` ton to which the elastic member is attached.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a relatively stiff piece of cardraisedlto the top of the flag pole with ther rear side 8 in registration with the Hag pole. The flag 7 is preferably formed from cardboard so that it will lay fiat against the in-y ner side of the cardboard section 1, when the cardboard sections are folded onto each other. Secured at 9 to the lower end of the flag is an elastic member 10, which elastic member entends downwardly, and preferably terminates in a ring 11, which is re-I ceived on the shank 12 of the fastener 13, which is secured to lthe section 1, and against the. action of which elastic member the flag 7 is raised to the top of the pole 6 by means of a cord 14, which cord is secured to the upper end of the flag 7 at 15. Cord 14 extends upwardly and through an eye 16 carried by the cardboard section 1, adjacent the upper end of the fiag staff 6 and then extends downwardly and through an eye 16a adjacent the lower end of the iiag pole and has its end anchored at 17 to the cardboard section 2 adjacent its lower end and preferably spaced a substantial distance from the hinged portion 3 of the cardboard sections 1 and 2. By positioning the cord securing point 17, as above set fort-h, it will be seen that when the sec- tions 1, and 2 are moved Ito open position, an upward pull is imparted to the Hag 7 thereby stretching the elastic member 10 as the flag moves upwardly. Said elastic member forms means whereby when the cardboard sections 1 and 2 are folded against each other, the flag will be moved downwardly to lowered posit-ion adjacent the igures of the school teacher 18, who has her hands 19 positioned adjacent the flag pole 6 to give the impression that the school teacher is raising the flag. It is obvious that the device may be used with different subject matter thereon, for instance the representation of a camp for boy scouts.
From the above it will be seen that a flag raising device is provided which is particularly adapted as an advertising novelty, and on wherein upo-n opening of the device the flag will be raised, and upon closing the flag will be automatically lowered.
It will also be seen that the device may be cheaply manufactured and sold, thereby allowing the device to be distributed as an advertising novelty.
The invention having been set forth what is claimed as new and useful is l. A flag' raising' device comprising hingedly connected members, an elastic member having' one oi its ends anchored to one of said hingedly connected members adjacent its lower end, a flag' having its lower end connected to the upper end of the elastic member, a cord connected to the upper end oitl the Hag', said cord extending upwardly through an eye adjacent the upper end of one of the hingedly connected members, thence downwardly and through an eye adjacent the lower end of said last named section, the end of said cord being anchored to the other hingedly connected member adjacent its free end.
2. A flag raising device, said device comprising hingedly connected members, a flag disposed on one of said hingedly connected members, the lower end of said flag being connected to an elastic member anchored to the hingedly connected member, a cord connected to the upper end of the flag, said cord extending upwardly through an eye and thence downwardly and through an eye adjacent the lower end of the section and thence across Ithe hinging point of the hingedly connected members and anchored to the other hingedly connected member.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
