DISPLAY MOUNTING FOR SPOOLS Filed April 12. 1954 United States Patent DISPLAY TVIOUNTING FOR SPOGLS John R. Sexton, Meriden, Conn.
Application April 12, 1954, criai No. 422,476
1 Claim. (Cl. 242-139) This invention relates to display mountings for spools of fancy ribbons, and so forth, particularly designed for mounting a plurality of spools in a group so that they may be held in position relative to each other and in a manner that permits the contents to be separately withdrawn from the individual spools.
A primary object of the invention is to provide a member attached to the heads at the opposite ends of a group of spools so that each spool may be supported between oppositely disposed members engaging their heads and held rotatably therebetween.
A feature of importance of the invention is that the members engaging the heads of the spools are in the form of flat sheets having portions partly cut away so that the freed portions may be bent within the central openings in the spool heads and engage under the end walls of a head.
More particularly the invention is adapted for retaining, in a group, a plurality, such as three spools formed from a cylindrical sleeve of paper to which are attached at opposite ends thin flat paper spool heads having a central opening therein.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention may include the features of construction and operation set forth in the following specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
In the accompanying drawing annexed hereto and forming a part of this specification, I have shown the invention embodied in means for mounting and retaining three headed paper spools designed for fancy tying ribbon, but it will be understood that the invention can be otherwise embodied and that the drawing is not to be construed as defining or limiting the scope of the invention, the claim appended to this specification being relied upon for that purpose.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a spool mounting and retaining means made in accordance with the present invention; and
Fig. 2 is an end view of the assembly shown in Fig. 1, parts being broken away to more clearly show the construction of the spool.
In the above mentioned drawing, there has been shown but one embodiment of the invention which is now deemed preferable, but it will be understood that changes and modification may be made within the scope of the appended claim without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring more in detail to the figures of the drawing there are shown three spools 10 on which may be wound ribbon or other material (not shown). As shown, the spools 10 comprise a short sleeve 12 preferably of paper or other rolled sheet material to the opposite ends of which are attached end pieces or heads 14 of circular form and made of sheet material such as cardboard. As the spools 10 are of standard or usual form further description of them is not thought to be necessary. Each of the heads 14 of the spools are pierced with a central circular opening 16 of less diameter than the sleeve and the periphery of the heads is circular in outline.
As shown in the figures of the drawing, the assembly comprises three spools 10 held in position adjacent each other and with their axes parallel to each other. To retain the spools 10 in this position pieces of sheet material 18 such as heavy cardboard are shaped as shown and provided with three equilaterally spaced pierced portions 20. A pair of these pieces of sheet material is provided for each assembly of spools fitting against the opposite ends of the spools. The pierced portions 20 form a winged projecting section on each side which may be bent and pressed within the central opening 16 in the spool head 12. The lateral wings 22 of the tongues or projections 20 engage against the under surface of the spool head 12 and, as the opening in the spool head is central and circular, the spool 10 may be freely rotated on its axis When the material on the spool is being withdrawn.
Preferably each of the sheet members 18 is provided with a central opening 24 on which the assembly may be spindled. The assembly may be mounted with the spools 10 horizontal or vertical and in either case the assembly retains the spools against rolling and permits the contents of the spools to be withdrawn either from a single spool or simultaneously from two or all of the spools.
I claim as my invention:
A display mounting for a group of spools comprising a plurality of spools arranged with their axes parallel to each other having central sleeve portions and provided with heads lying in coplanar alignment at their opposite ends, said heads having central openings therein of less diameter than the sleeves, a sheet of flexible material lying adjacent the outside surfaces of said spool heads at each of the opposite ends, said sheets having spaced pierced portions providing projections having winged tongues, said tongues being bent to extend within the central openings in said heads and the winged portions thereof extending laterally and engaging against the under surfaces of said heads.
