A light fixture has opposed ends terminating in end panels, the housing having top and bottom walls and sides defining a light-emitting area, the top wall being provided with a rail. A pair of spaced lamp holders for supporting a fluorescent lamp is supported by insertable support means which are secured to the undersurface of the top wall. An elongated reflector extends between the ends of the housing and is positioned in the light-emitting area and fastened to the support means. A conduit-receiving opening is provided in each panel and is covered by a dome plug, each panel also having an opening for removably supporting a circuit plug. In a support system for adjustably supporting several light fixtures in an end-to-end relationship, each fixture having a top provided with a coupling member. The adjustable arm has inner and outer members telescopically interengaged, one end of the arm being secured to a wall-mounting bracket, and the other end of the arm being secured to a light fixture supporting bracket which has slidable means engageable with the coupling member. To prevent movements along the longitudinal and transverse axes of the aligned end-to-end light fixtures, a splicing member is provided to intercouple with the coupling members on the housings.

Serial light fixture

A tire display device having an arm assembly, a pivotable bracket assembly, and a plate assembly, the arm assembly comprising a wall bracket, an arm having one end secured to the wall bracket, and a free end pivotally supporting the pivotable bracket assembly for pivotable movement in a horizontal plane. The bracket assembly, in turn, supports a plate having peripheral flanges provided with slots for admitting respective slide arms having inner ends provided with threaded bores for aligning with respective radially extending slots in the plate so that a bolt can be passed through the slot into the threaded bore for adjustably securing the slide arm on the plate. The other end of the slide arm is provided with a pocket for engaging a bead on the tire. The slidable adjustability of the slide arms permit mounting of tires having different diameters. The plate is provided with a central opening for admitting a flanged bushing which is mountable on a shaft secured to a base of the pivotable bracket. The plate assembly is secured by a cotter key receivable in a bore passing through the free end of the shaft. The plate assembly is rotatable on the shaft so that a tire supported on the device can be rotated to any position to facilitate the reading of the information imprinted on the sidewall of the tire. The pivotable bracket assembly enables the tire to be pivoted in the horizontal plane to permit inspection of the tread design on the tire. The end of the shaft is provided with an advertising coverplate to fill out the tire opening and to conceal the plate assembly. The advertising coverplate is mounted in such a way as to keep it stationary when the tire is rotated.

Tire display device

A bulk goods dispenser having a bin for holding the bulk goods which can be removed by a manipulator mounted in a dispensing unit communicating with the interior of the bin, the removed bulk goods being temporarily collected in a chute prior to being dispensed by a trap door into a bag which is attachable to walls of the chute, the walls being provided with holding horns. The trap door is held in a closed position by a spring member until released by a handle. The manipulator has a scoop for moving the bulk goods over a slanting wall in the bin. The bin has a slidable cover which can be locked. The dispenser unit can also be locked to the bin. A false bottom can vary the holding capacity of the bin.
