PORTABLE WARDROBE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 27, 1914.
Application filed October 31, 1912. Serial No. 728,801.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ANITA Eusris KINEN, a citizen of the Republic of France, and a resident of 8 Avenue Marceau, Paris, France, have invented a new and useful Portable Wardrobe, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a portable wardrobe which is formed of a box the cover of which is provided with hooks or other devices for the suspension of garments and is adapted to be supported above the box by rods or uprights which can be folded together and are contained within the said box.
The Wardrobe may be constructed in the form of a box, a trunk, a basket or in any other suitable shape.
The accompanying drawing illustrates by way of example the subject matter of the invention.
Figure 1 is a vertical section of the improvement. Fig. 2 is a plan View corresponding to Fig. 1 with the cover removed. Fig. 3 is a vertical section of the wardrobe set up. Fig. 4 shows in perspective a portion of the wardrobe set up, and Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a detail.
The wardrobe shown in the drawing is formed of a box a closed by a cover I) fixed upon the box in any convenient manner but adapted to be completely removed therefrom. The underside of the cover I) has a certain number of hooks 0 or other devices designed to carry the garments. When the wardrobe is set up the cover is supported by uprights d formed of members d d d 03* formed by fiat rods of steel or other suitable material, which can be folded up upon each other at the bottom of the box a or be held extended in the vertical position. Each rod is connected to the next one by means of a rivet j which acts as a connecting pivot, and a pin is placed upon the first rod and adapted to enter into a hole Z pierced in the second rod insures the rigidity of the upright, see Figs. 4: and 5.
' The corners of the box a are covered inside with angle irons m to the base of which is pivoted each rod d forming the first member of the uprights d. A bolt n fixed to the angle irons m serves to lock the rod d in the vertical position. This bolt is formed by an elbow lever having one arm terminating in a hook n and the other one in a pusher n While the lever pivoted at n is subjected to the action of aspring which pulls the hook n against the rod (P. To disengage the rod it is only necessary to apply pressure to the pusher n The hooks 0 which serve to carry the garments are threaded upon bars so as to be capable of being moved along them in a longitudinal direction. The bars may be five in number for example, the first four 0 0 0 0 being arranged parallel to the sides of the cover I). They are held beneath the cover by pieces h fixed to each of its corners. The fifth bar forms a cross-bar. The pieces h are pierced with mortises i to receive the ends of the uprights (Z which serve to support the cover b above the box a.
lVhen the wardrobe is folded up the cover 6 may be connected to the box a by means of two locks.
In order to protect the articles hung up from dust, the apparatus may be surrounded, when set up, by a cloth or other suitable covering which, for the purpose of transport, will be likewise placed in the box.
As has been stated above a wardrobe of the kind herein described may serve for the carrying about of garments or any other articles. When constructed in the form of a trunk or hat box for example, it only possesses in addition to the ordinary trunk or hat box the folded up uprights the room occupied by which is, so to speak nothing.
The invention is not limited to the details and constructional form shown which is given by way of example only. Thus for example the rods al might not be attached to the bottom of the box but might be detachable. They might he slid into guides placed in the corners of the box for example, which would allow the bolts which serve to lock them to be dispensed with. In like manner and without departing from the scope of the invention any trunk or box might be fitted up as a traveling wardrobe by applying the necessary modifications thereto.
What I claim and desire to secure by LettersPatent of the United States of Amer- 10a 1s:
A portable wardrobe comprising a housing, a plurality of jointed uprights extending from said housing, a pivotal pin connecting the joints of said uprights, a locking pin for locking the joints of said uprights together a pivotally mounted; clamping bolt secured in S grid housing for clamping the lower end 0 said uprights to said housing, a covering secured by said uprights, ANITA EUSTIS KINEN' and means for suspending garments from Witnesses:
