EDWIN G. RUST, OF SIOUX CITY, IOWVA.
FOLDING PARCEL-CARRIER.
Application filed August 18, 1916.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that L Eowm G. RUST, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Sioux City, in the county of Woodbury and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Folding larceLC/arriers, of which the i'ollmring is a specification.
The present invention relates to baggage carrying devices for use on motorwehicles.
The invention has for its primary ob ect the production of an improved readily at tachablc and detachable device for retaining articles of baggage on the running-board. of motor-vehicle's.
Another object of the invention is the production of a. baggage-carrying device, adapted to be readily attached to and detached from the running-boards of motorvehicles, and embodying certain nov'el features adapting it to be conveniently and readily folded, when not in use, and carried under a seat cushion or in the usual tool box.
Still a further object of the invention is the production of an in proved baggagecarrying device thoroughly etlicient yet simple and inexpensive in construction and light in weight.
With these and other objects in view the invention, consisting in t 1:: construction, combination and novel arrangement of parts, will be fully understood from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this application, and 'in'which.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of an automobile with the preferred embodiment of the invention attached thereto;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of the running board with the device mounted thereon;
Fig. 3 vice;
Fig. 4 is a plan of the device folded as when not in use.
Referring, now, to the illustrations, 5, is the running board of an automobile. which is an outside elevation of the dein Fig. 1 is represented as carrying. a suitcase, 6.
The device of my invention consists of a frame wall adapted to be mounted on the' runningboard adjacent the outer edge thereof.
The wall preferably comprises Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 13, 1917.
Serial DIG-115,633.
three rectangular frames, 7, placed edge to edge, the contiguous edges being hinged together, as at 8, on the outer side of the frame. On the inner side of the frame are cars, 9, each secured to one of the frames and overlapping the adjacent frame to prevent outward buckling of the wall.
The wall is securely retained in normal position by means of wire braces or brackets at opposite ends of the wall and each preferably including a continuous length of wire,
having a-horizontal part, 10, adapted to' rest on the running-board, and having its outer end bent upwardly and freely inclosed by a hearing or clip, 11, riveted or otherwise secured to the wall. The inner end of the portion, 10, is formed With a loop, 12,
adapted to be removably engaged in a hooked clip, 13, mounted adjacent the inner edge of the running-board and s0 positioned thereon as to prevent outward movement of the wire portion, 10.
Upward displacement of the Wire portion,
tion of the wire extended diagonally as at. 18, toward the top of the wall, the end of the portion, 18, being bent downwardly as at 19, and inclosed'by a bearing 20, secured to the wall. lVhen not in use the device can be conveniently folded as shown in Fig. 4,
the brackets being pivoted to the Wall to permit their being swung over adjacent the frame as shown in Fig. 4. The device is readily attached by slipping'the portions, 10, under theclipsQ14, and then engaging the loops, 12, in the books, 13.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is,
A baggage-carrier for the running-board of a motor-vehicle comprising a wall adapted to'bemounted adjacent the uter edge of the running-board and including a plurality of rectangular frames, placed edge to edge, the contiguous edges being hinged together, and braces at the ends of the Well, each including a Wire formed with a horizontal part adapted to extend across the running-board, having one end pivoted to the Wall and the other formed with a loop,
a diagonal part extending from the'looped end to the upper portion of the Wall and pivoted to the Well, and clips adapted to be secured to the running board and be releasably engaged by the loops and the horizontal 10 parts to prevent displacement of the braces.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 29th day of July, 1916.
' EDWIN Gr. RUST.
