Definitions

  • This invention relates to a briefcase of semirigid material, such as plastics, fuller board, plastics cover­ed cardboard and the like, intended for carrying writing pads, pamphlets, documents and others.
  • the briefcase according to this invention includes at least two wing or quadrilateral members consisting of rectangular equal-size walls connected together through a spine wall and able to be closed onto one another as a book.
  • a wing or flap member Connected to the end of one of said wings through a second spine wall smaller in width than the preceding or main spine wall, is a wing or flap member, the same in height as, but substantially narrower than the above-mentioned wings, this flap member being foldable onto the wing to which it is connected.
  • a third wing member substantially of the same width as, or slightly smaller in width than the above mentioned two wings, which is connected to its adjacent wing by an intervening third spine wall substant­ially of the same width as the second spine wall.
  • This third wing can be folded into the inside of its adjacent wing.
  • each wing member Provided on the inside surface of each wing member are a plurality of usually double pockets that are capable of receiving a large variety of articles.
  • the end flap or wing member has on its inside a series of relatively small, inwardly open pockets designed to receive, for example, visit cards, credit cards, thelephone cards, etc.
  • a further pocket is provided underneath said pockets, is in turn open inwardly and extends over the height of the briefcase to receive such documents as passports, railroad tickets, etc..
  • an expanding pocket that can contain as great a volume as the width or thick­ness of the spine wall connecting together the wing and the flap.
  • This expanding pocket preferably has a vertical opening extending all over its height on the opposite side to said spine wall and is intended for carrying, for example, newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, thumb indexes, and any other useful article, so that this pocket may serve as a bag.
  • said expanded pocket is filled with things, its expanded thickness entirely prevent the risk of papers escaping from the internal pockets provided in the flap folded thereupon.
  • said pamphlet may be a folder having transparent envelopes sealed to its back, possibly with partitions provided therebetween for accomodation of multi-formats.
  • this can have inside it the same type of pockets as the just described wing.
  • narrow pockets for carrying pens, felt-pointed pens, pencils, rules and the like.
  • the briefcase according to this invention is preferively made from plastics-covered cardboard having an outer bubble-studded surface, and the pockets provided on the inside surface of the different wing members are formed of transparent plastic sheets sealed onto three sides thereof.
  • a semirigid briefcase according to this invention is designated by numeral 1 as a whole.
  • the briefcase 1 comprises three main wings or quadrilateral portions C, E and G and an end wing or flap portion A.
  • the intermediate wings C and E are equal in size and are connected together by a spine portion D of a certain thickness or width which will also called as the main spine in the following.
  • the end wings A and G are connected to their adjoining wings C and E respectively, through associated spine walls B and F sub­stantially equal in width, which width is smaller than that of the central spine D.
  • end wing G is slightly smaller in width than the intermediate wings C and E.
  • Figure 1 gives preferred sizes in millimeters for the different portions of briefcase 1.
  • the briefcase 1 is 335 mm in height
  • the intermediate wings C and E are 240 mm in width
  • the end wing G is 237 mm in width
  • the end wing A is 100 mm in width
  • the main spine wall D is 57 mm in width
  • the spine walls B and F are both 33 mm in width.
  • the briefcase 1 is preferably made from plastics material such as PVC or the like, conveniently hard-backed on its inside and provided with an outside covering.
  • the outside of the briefcase 1 has, of preference, a bubble-studded surface 2, as schematically shown in figure 2, which besides imparting roughness to said surface, will also give the briefcase an attractive appearance.
  • briefcase 1 provided on the inside of briefcase 1 are a plurality of pockets, to be described below, capable of receiving the most large variety of articles.
  • the wing A has on its inside a number (five, in the example shown) of relatively small size, vertically arrayed pockets 3 having vertically extend­ing openings 4 on their inner side permitting credit cards, visiting cards, telephone cards and the like to be introduced into pockets 3.
  • a further pocket 5 extending over the height of briefcase 1 and having, al­ways on its inside, an opening 6 likewise extending throughout the height of briefcase 1.
  • This pocket 5 can be utilized to carry passports, railroad tickets and other documents.
  • wing C On the inside of wing C there is an expanding pocket 7 that can expand so as to contain a volume equaling the thickness of spine wall B.
  • the pocket 7 has an opening 8 on its vertical side adjacent the main spine wall D, through which opening newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, thumb indexes and any other article can be put into pocket 7 whereby this pocket will function as a bag.
  • the other intermediate wing E has on its inside two superposed pockets 9 and 10 substantially covering the entire surface of wing E and having a vertical opening 11 on the side of spine wall D, and a horizontal opening 12 in proximity to the upper edge of the briefcase, respectively.
  • the endmost wing G has on its inside two superposed poc­kets that are substantially identical to the pockets in­side the wing E and are, therefore, designated by the same reference numerals.
  • a pocket 9 having vertical opening 11, may receive the back-cover of an oblong-size writing-pad, pamphlet or folder 13 with this latter having transparent envelopes 14 sealed to its spine 15, possibly including partitions therebetween for accommodating multi-formats of smaller size than each envelope 14.
  • Figure 2 schematizes insertion of a pamphlet or folder 13 into pocket 9 of intermediate wing E, said folder being obviously able to be withdrawn from the correspond­ing pocket for consultation, by closing again the brief­case.
  • Each pocket 10 provided with horizontal opening 12 can, on the other hand, receive the back-cover of an upright-­format writing-pad 16 or the like, as schematized in figure 2 for the endmost wing G.
  • narrow pockets particularly intended for carrying such writing materials as pens, pencils, felt-pens, rules and the like.
  • These narrow pockets are generally designated by reference numeral 17 in the drawing and shown as being dou­bled in number on main spine wall D. However, it is to be understood that pockets 17 on this wall D could also be single wider pockets when intended for articles larger in size.
  • the different pockets on the inside of briefcase 1 are preferably formed of transparent plastic sheets that are sealed on three sides thereof, the fourth unsealed side providing an opening for the respective pocket.
  • a preferred closure mode for the briefcase 1 according to the invention is as schematically shown in figure 2; it is achieved by successively folding the wing A on­to the inner part of adjacent wing C, the endmost wing G onto the intermediate adjacent wing E, whereupon the two intermediate adjacent wings C and E are closed onto one another as a book.
