K. WAIBEL WATERPROOF CONTAINER Patented pr.' 7, 1925.
NITED STATES KARL WAIBEL, or NEW YORK, N. Y.
WATERPROOF CONTAINER.
'l To all whom it may concern:
" zen of the United States, and resident of New York, in the county of New York-and State of' New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in `Waterproof Containers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in water-proof containers, particularly receptacles designed to be carried by bathers, swimmers and others for keeping about the person articles which have to be kept dry, as small change, watch. and chain, jewelry, matehes,ci'garettes or the like.
It is the principal object of thc invention to prov-idea practical receptacle ot simple, inexpensive construction which can readily be attached to the wrist or to a belt worn by a bather and which possesses ,water excluding features .and is equipped with means for conveniently .absorbing the moisture generated within the tightly closed receptacle so as to keep the articles contained therein positively dry, while allowing ready access to its interior.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a container of this type permitting a water-tight closureof the same without obstruction to a ready placing and removal of the articles stored therein during its use.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a waterproof container allowing a convenient inspection of a watch carried therein and the attachment of the key to a bathing booth or cabin etc.
A still further object of my invention is the provision of means allowing a ready attachment and secure fastening of the receptacle to a belt buckle which at the same time is adapted to allow the attachment of a strap for strapping the receptacle to a persons wrist.
These and other objects and advantages of my invention will become more fully apparentas the description thereof proceeds, and will then be specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a material part of this disclosure:
Figure 1 is a rear view-of my improved water-proof container constructed accordin to the present invention. f
Figure 2 is a front View thereof.
Application led .Tune 12, 1924. Serial No. 719,587.
Figure 3 is a front view of a modified form of my container.
Figure et is across-section through the container on line 4--4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a cross-section through the container Figure 3 on line 5 5 of said figure.
AFigure 6 is a rear view of another modi- Mlied form of my container.
Figure 7 is a longitudinal section on line 7-7 of Figure 6.
Figure 8 is a detail fro-nt view of a buckle.
Figure 9 is a section on line` 9-9 of Figure 7.
Figure l0 is a front elevation of a locking member or bracket, and
Figure 1l is a side elevation of the same. As shown in Figure l, the water-proof receptacle or container l0 of any suitable material impermeable to water, preferably metal, is curved as indicated at 11 to lit the curvature of the wrist of a person. The casing 1Y0 can either be attached to the Wrist of a bather by means of a narrow' strap 12 passed through a pair yof comparatively small guide loops 13 secured to the rear wall of the container in any desired manner, or to a belt worn by the swimmer by means of a'co-mparatively wider strap passed through a pair of wider or larger guide straps or loops 14, and both straps are equipped with appropriate bufkles, indicated at 15, Figure 1, or similar suitable fastening means allowing a strapping of Vthe receptacle to thewrist or belt of a person.
At one endA the container is closed watertight bymeans of a cap .16 adapted to be tightly screwed upon the body of the container 10 by means of a screw having an upper knob or handle 17 and an interposed Washer 18, said cap also lined on the inside with a waterproof and Aresilient material as for instance rubber or the like. The exact manner of fastening the cap to the container and retaining it 1n position thereon will be hereafter more fully described.
As illustrated 'in Figure 2, the front wall Vor the container l() has an -opening and is equipped with a suitable rim surrounding said opening within the container, designated, 19, for holding a watch, the dial and hands of which can be readily inspected through a cover of celluloid or other transparent material 20 held watertight against the rim and container by any suitable well known means.
As shown in Figure V3, the outer face ofv tliecontainer is equipped withaspring` clip 21 adapted to hold a key 22`to`tlie container, asf for instancea key for a bathing'booth or cabinv ete.
The inner walls of the container are lined moisture absorbing lining such as for suitable, approximately circular opening 27 "in the rear wall ofthe buckle 24, and to slide/'with its shank in the elongated slot 28 communicating with said opening'27`to rest in the well known manner upon the bottom thereof, while its head is guided along the "inner wall of the buckle preventing a Vdetachment normally but allowing such detachment as soon asV its head is in alignment with the opening 27.
it will be clear that a narrow strap or band 29 can be passedrthrough the elongated openings 30, 81 of the extensions 25 if the vcontainer is to be fastened to the wrist of a person, while a comparatively wider strap 32 may be passed through the buckle 2e if the container is to be worn on a belt carried by the bather. vided for fastening the ends o'l'f the straps in the usual well known manner.
The knob 17 is attached to the 'upper end of a screw 33 passing through thewaslier 18, cap 16and waterproof lining Se for the and the inner end of the screw 9 Y ou QX- teiius inte a threaded hole 35 of the tog plate of a brfcket 36 having lower, re-eiitran s 3T adapted to engage, and rest pper faces against suitable pins civ studs in the inner wall of the container. lt will be clear that by screwii'ig v. 33 home, by the proper manipuknob 17, the engagement of the arn'is 2353 id pins or studs 38 above the` saine., will pro/-de an extremely tight closure between cap 16 and centaine-11,10.
It will be apparent froin'the foregoing that a watch, matches, coins, jewelry or other articles of personal use may be carrie-'l within the waterproof container without the slightest danger of becoming wet or even moist, while ready inspection of the watch Suitable buckles l5 are pro-` 'is possible, and it will be alsoapparentithat when the` bather desires to use one .ortlie other article, it will simply be necessary to open the cover or cap and the bracket in order to gain an unobstructed access to the y interior of` the container. The contaiiiei' may, as will be evident, conveniently be 'Y carried on the wrist or on the belt ofa swimvention as fall within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of my invention which I have illustrated by way of example in the drawing,
which howeverV permits of many variations within the above limits.
V'hat I ciaiin as new, and desire to proi teelt by Letters Patent is:
l. A device of the class described comprising a easing, curved to lit the shape of a persorfs wrist, means for strapping sai'd easing to the wrist and the belt of a person, a cover cap for said casing, a bracket within said casing, a screw passedLA through said cap into said bracket, a pair ofoppositely disposed pins or studs within said casing adapted to be engaged by tl'ie'ari'ns of said bracket from below 'upon the. operation ofA said screw for tightly drawing said cap against 'said casing to provide a watertight seat for said cap, a knob at the upper end of said screw, a waterproof lining on the inner face of said cover adapted to hcri'netically seal the casing upon the home screwing of said screw and a moisture absorbing lining within said casing.
2. ln a waterproof container having a rubber lined cap engaging and closing one end of said container, an'dprovided with a perforation, a screw passing through said perforation, an operating knob at the outer end of said screw, a bracket having two lat orally extending spaced arms within said casing, a pair of studs attached to the opposite walls within s casing adapted to be engaged by the lewe; of said bracket arms from below and to h i drawn tightly against the saine upon the a.oine screwing of said scicr.' to firmly draw' said cap against the body ot said container to ei'l'ect a waterproof` closure,
Signed at lNew York, in the county of New York and State of New York this sew enth day of June, fr. l). 192i.
