ROUGE PAD.

" ANT @ECE WILLIAM G. KENDALL, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO IRVIN S. ZELUFF, 0F LONG ISLAND CITY, NEW YORK.

ROUGE-PAD.

specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 8, 1916.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM G. KENDALL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rougelads, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to new and useful improvements in receptacles or containers and more particularly to containers for rouge, the primary object of my invention being an improvement in what is commonly known as the rouge holding pad proper.

At the present time, the rouge in the form of powder or paste is compressed into a block or disk and then glued or otherwise secured by adhesive to one face of a block or disk of porcelain, glass or metal, commonly known as the rouge holding pad and this pad is then gluedor otherwise fastened into the bottom of a box or container of cardboard or other suitable material. As will be readily appreciated, this requires considerable time and, consequently, increases the expense of packaging the rouge. Moreover, the actua-l bringing of adhesive into engagement with the rouge itself is a disadvantage.

My present invention aims to provide a pad against which or into which the rouge may be forced or compressed and the rouge cake therefore made directly upon the pad insuch a manner that no adhesive is required in holding it'thereto, the only adhesive necessary being that utilized to secure the pad in the containing box.

lith these and other objects in view, my invention will be more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and' then specifically pointed out inthe claims which are attached to and form a part of this application.

In the drawing: Figure 1 is a central, vertical lsectional view taken through the containing box, showing my improved pad in elevation; Fig. 9. is a corresponding section taken through the pad itself; Fig.A 3 is a perspective view of the pad before the rouge is applied; Fig. 4 is a strung out perspective view of the various parts of the box and pad; Fig. 5 is 'a top plan view of a somewhat modified form of rouge holdingy pad; Fig. C is a sectional view taken on the line (3 6 of Fig. 5; Fig. '7 is a top plan view, illustrating a further forni of 'rouge holding pad; Fig. 8 is a section taken on the line 8-8 of Fig. 7.

Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.

In order to insure a clear understanding of the construction and application of my rouge holding pad, I have .illustrated it in connection with a conventional form of container 10 including a bottom 11, circular in shape and carrying upstanding inner and outer walls l2 and 13, respectively, thc upper peripheral edge of the inner wall projecting beyond rthe outer wall in order that the latter may form a stop shoulder for the downwardly directed peripheral flange 14 of the cover or cap l5. This box, which is preferably formed of cardboard or other suitable material, is of conventional structure and need not further be described.

.My improved rouge holding pad proper, indicated as a whole by the numeral 1G may be formed of glass, porcelain or any suitable sheet metal although I prefer to forni it of aluminum as the latter is non-corrosive and sanitary. The pad includes a base portion 17 corresponding in shape and size to the inner face of the bottom ll of the container 10 and provided about its edge with an upwardly and inwardly directed retaining flange 18. The rouge, indicated in the drawings by the numeral 19, is, by the employment of any suitable machine or apparatus, which forms no part of the present invention, pressed into the pad 1G in the manner shown in Fig. 2 whereby the upwardly and inwardly directed flange 1S of the ad will engage a portion of the rouge and ecause of its adherence to the remainder hold the entire cake of rouge in place.

In Fig. 5 of the drawings, I have illustrated a somewhat modified form of pad, indicated by the numeral 16 and having the upwardly and inwardly directed peripheral retaining flange 18. This body, however, is provided with a series of upstruck ribs Q() which may be disposed parallel to each other or otherwise arranged, as preferred. If desired, these ribs may be made somewhat wider at their upper than at their lower ends in order to form retaining shoulders 21 between which the rouge will be forced. In any event, they will prevent any likelihood of loosening of the rouge cake during wiping of rouge therefrom as the cake will be positively held against turning increment. c

ln Figs. 7 and S of the drawings, I have illustrated a still further modified forni of rouge pad 16 lhave the peripheral upwardly and inwardly directed retaining flange 1S and having its bottom or base `17" upstruck to provide an annular sl1oulder Q2 terminating at its upper end in a laterally directed peripheral retaining ange Q3, preferably disposed parallel to the face 17. `ll'ith this form of my invention, the rouge is compressed beneath the retaining flange 1S and also beneath the flange 23.

lt will of course be understood that no adhesive is.. necessary to secure the rouge to the pads above described although the pads are secured to the bottom 1l of the box l0 by adhesive, in the usual manner.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:

l. A rouge pad including a base having a .face surrounded by an upwardly and inwardly directed peripheral flange adapted to lockingly engage rouge pressed against the face of the pad.

2. A rouge pad including a base having a face surrounded by an upwardly and 1nwardly directed peripheral flange adapted to lockngly engage rouge pressed against the face of the pad, said pad being formed of aluminum.

3. A rouge pad including a base hav-ing a face surrounded by an upwardly and Vinwardly directed peripheral flange adapted to lockingly engage rouge pressed against the face of the pad and having additional rouge anchoring means.

4. A rouge pad including a base having a face surrounded by an upwardly and inwardly directed peripheral flange adapted to engage rouge pressed against the face, the base within the boundary of the flange being upstruck to provide an annular shoulder terminating in a laterally directed flange.

In testimony whereof I allix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

I WILLIAM G. KENDALL. [11.3.]
