Display device for articles.

摘要

Device for supporting an article having an aperture therein which comprises a stand (10) having a plurality of arms (18) extending radially outwardly from an upstanding column (25). Each arm (18) has an upstanding outer end portion (21) and has associated therewith a rod (23) arranged to co-operate with the corresponding arm (18) to provide a loop. Each rod (23) is movable longitudinally relative to the outer end portion (21) of the corresponding arm (18) so that an article can be located on the arm (18) and suspended thereon. Movement of each rod (23) away from an outer end portion (21) of a corresponding arm (18), thereby to permit removal from or location on the corresponding arm (18) of an article, is restrained by a selectively operable locking mechanism (42) until the mechanism is operated to permit movement of a said rod (23). The invention is suitable for supporting belts for clothing, a buckle of each belt being located on a selected arm whereby the associated belt is suspended therefrom.
