DISPLAY DEVICE FOR, MERCHANDISE.
Application filed March 25, 1927. Serial No. 178,199.
The invention relates to display devices attractive and easily accessible manner. The
invention contemplates further the provision of displaydevices of the indicated type which are of simple construction and capable of being folded into compact form for purposes of storage and shipment and which, in such folded form, constitute eflicient shipping means for the merchandise. Other more specific objects will appear from the descrlption hereinafter, and the features of novelty will be pointed out in the claims. The present application is in part a continuation of another application filed by me on May 22, 1926, Serial #110,892.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate several examples of the invention without defining its limits, Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the display device in a form of a stand adapted particularly for pencils; Fig. 2 is; a plan view thereof; Fig. 3 is an end view showing the device set up as in stand in its display position; Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4--4 of Fig. 1; Fig. 5 is a front elevation corresponding to Fig. 1; illustrating the device in a form adapted to be suspended; Fig.
6 is an end view of this form of stand, and
Fig. 7 is a sectional view on the line -77 of Fig. 5. A
In the form shown in Figs. 1 to 4 inclusive,
, the device comprises a support which consists of a base 10, foldable upon a line 11, and side members 12 foldably connected'with'said base along lines a. The side members 12 are provided with apertures 13 for the accommodation of end sections of the pencils 14 or equivalent articles of merchandise, and with tongues 15 adapted to frictionally engage said pencils or the like, as shown in Figs. .3 and 4. The means whereby the pencils or equivalent articles are removably fixed in upright positions, in this form of the inven-Q. tion, comprises a device of irregular diamond shape, consisting of side members 6, foldallly connected along lines o with end members (lwhich are in turn foldably connected with each other along a line e. Openings points in registry with each other and with the apertures 13 as shown in Fig. 4.
16 andv 17 are formed in the members I; and d atapertures 13 and the openings 16 and 17 of this form of the invention are illustrated in dimensions to accommodate individual pencils or their equivalent andare located in alignment with each other upon opposite sides of the vertical center lineof the display stand, as illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4. The
pencils, when in position on the device, with.
the latter in the display position shown in drawings, are received in the apertures 13 and project through the openings: 16 and 17, and are removably fixed thereby upon both sides of the stands in oppositely inclined positions,
which diverge downwardly. In this form, the pencils, upon opposite sides of the device,
are in registry with each other. so, said pencils will approach each other at their u per ends,
as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. It wil of course be understood that the pencils may be located in staggered arrangement upon opposite sides of the device, so that if said penclls are long enough, they may cross or intersect each other at their upper end ortions. The device of Figs. 1 t0 4 is pre i drably made of a single sheet of material-secured in position, for 1n-v stance, by having a strip f comprising an extension of one 0 he side members 12. pasted a) one of the side members 6, and another strip f comprising a continuation of one of the side members b pasted in surface engage'-. ment with the aforesaid side member 12,1 in such case, suitable score linesflg areprovlded at the proper points'to ermitthe necessaryfolding'adjustment of t e parts.
pencils lie in surface engagement with the panels 10 'and 26.and are 'rempvably fixed in positions on the device in attractive display positions, and are readily accessible for removalv hen desired. In this form, the
pencils upon opposite sides of thedevice,
are in registry with each other, it being of course understood that the pencils may be located upon opposite sides of the device in staggered arrangement if this should be preferred. It will furtherbe understood that as the pencils pass through the openings 20 and into the openings 31, the'tongues 21 and 32 will be placed undera tension and thus will exert a frictional grip upon said pencils which assists in maintaining the latter against -unintentional removalfrom the devlce.
'It will be noted, in both of the illustrated forms 'of the invention, that the pencils or jother articles of merchandise extend alternatelyin front tions' of the dis lay devices.
of and behind contiguous por- The latter are develops thus placed an er a tension: which a grip upon the merchandise "and thereby:
easily removed at will.
holds it firmly in position on the device and yet permits the .mdividual' articles to be The form of the device shown in Figs. 5 to 7 is perfectly flat in its initial condition, that is minus a supply of mer.chandise, and is thus capable of being easil 7 stored and shipped in 'largequantities in re atively small inwardly o the score linesll and a; in such folded con ltion of the device the pencils or equivalent articles of merchandise in predetermined quantities or members areheld in position, so as to be ca able of shipment in this condition in suita le containers;
In'all of its forms, the invention rovides a display device in which the mere andise, such as pencils or equivalent articles arev displayed in anattractive,- easily accessible manner,-and so as-to' be easily dispensed,
either individually or in predetermined numbers to purchasers. The devices all comprise a support provided with apertures for the reception of end ortions of the pencils or other merchandise, in combination with means "combined with .said support and. provided with openings through which the pencils or the like project, and whereby the latter they are preferably constructed of single 11k sheets of material, may be printed prior to being folded into shape and secured together; That is, the printin may. all be done on one surface whilethe evices are still in sheet form; the cutting and creasing of the sheets 1 a may also be accomplished as a. single operation. The tongues which comprise material cut as a result of the formation of the apertures of the devices, need not be plucked out or. removed from such apertures, and are-18 'inade use of to .add efliciency to the device;
the tongues or tabs which result from the formation of the openings of the stands automatically adjust themselves to their op-.
erative positions when the device is set up or '1 filled with merchandise, and are thereby automatically removed from said openings to free the same for the reception ofthe pencils or their equivalent. -As reviously stated, the
devices may be shipped IN are removably fixed in upright positions. As reviously stated the device in all of its forms of engaging the pencils or the-like with 10! sufliclent friction 'toremovably fix said pen at and collapsed bot-h. lll
with and without the articles of merchanside in lace thereon.
arious changes inthe specific form shown and described may be made within the scope t 1e of the claims without departing from spirit of the invention.
