To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM HENRY BEEHLER, a citizen of the United States, re siding at Baltimore, Maryland, have invented a certain new and useful Suitcase Umbrella-Holder, of which the following is a specification. Y
My invention relates to, holding means cooperating with the parts of an ordinary suit-case to hold therein in a convenient manner a foldable umbrella.
The invention is particularly adapted to cooperate with folding umbrellas of my own invention disclosed in certain patents and pending applications but the features of the invention may be adapted in some cases to umbrellas of other construction.
lghe characteristics and advantages of the invention are hereinafter pointed out sufficiently in connection with a detailed description of the accompanying drawing which shows one exemplifying embodiment of the invention.
This embodiment is the best that I have up to the present time devised, but it is to be understood that the invention may be embodied in many different forms and I do not limit myself to details, except as claimed.
Figure 1 is a front view of a suit-case with the top raised showing the holding devices and umbrella in position within the to Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail in side elevation of one of the holders applied to one of the suit-case straps. I

Iprefer to construct folding umbrellas so that the tip 1 is connected to the body portion 2 by a foldable linkage. In this way the tip may be unscrewed and folded along side of the umbrella body in the position shown but is not usually completely detached therefrom. The handle 3, best shown in Fig. 2, is provided with a dowel 5 to. fit within the end of the umbrella rod and this dowel is provided with a spring-operated latch 6 to engage a slot in the rod to hold the handle in operative position. When the umbrella is folded the handle is preferably removed entirely by depressing the spring- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 1d, 191?.
Sierial No. 59,391.
The umbrella is of such dimensions that it can be accommodated in a suit-case of ordinary dimensions by placing the umbrella diagonally therein as shown in Fig. 1, and the most convenient location for the umbrella is found to be upon the inside of the suit-case top, as also shown in the drawing.
Suit-case tops are usually provided with buckled straps 7, 8, to hold shirts or other articles of clothing, these straps being arranged transversely of the cover, as shown. My in vention provides means for easily and quickly securing the umbrella to these straps. For this purpose I provide two holders, as shown in detail in Figs. 2, 3 and 1. Each holder comprises a loop 10 to receive the umbrella body, a detachable spring-clasp 11 to engage thev strap. and an eye 12 to hold the handle, as will be explained. Ordinarily, it would be unnecessary to provide a handle-holding eye. on both of the holders, but for the sake of uniformity in manufacture this eye might usually be supplied on both of the holding devices; for one suit-case. Where an umbrella is used, which has both a detachable handle and a detachable tip, the eye of one of the holders might be used for the handle and the other for the tip.
In a preferred device, the holding device as shown is made of a single piece of wire. One endof the wire is formed into the eye 12'. This is located at the end of a shank 13. At the opposite end of the shank there is a twist 14L to close the loop 10 and hold it properly in relation to the clasp. Adjacent to this twist there is an open coil 15. of one or more turns to provide a spring for the clasp. 11. This clasp preferably has an inwardly-curved portion 16 adapted to firmly grasp the strap between said portion and the shank 13. or adjacent parts, as clearly shown in Fig 2. The free end of the clasp part of the wire is formed into a hook 17 to engage shank 13.
v The eye 12 is usually made to fit quite closely the dowel 5 of the handle.
In applying the holders to a suit-case it is unnecessary to unbuckle the straps 7 and 8. The clasps 11 of two of the holding devices are opened and one is placed over each strap and secured 1n the posltlon shown in Fig. 1. The umbrella in folded condition lid is then easily thrust through the loops 10 and the dowel of handle 3 is thrust through eye 12 until latch (isnaps in back of the eye and holds the handle securely in position as shown .in Figs. 1 and 3. The umbrella may be easily and quickly removed from the holding device and set up for use in an obvious way.
The eye 12 may be conveniently used for receiving the handle dowel, as above described, and'it may also serve at the same time as a convenient knob for the operation of the clasp 11. But in some cases this eye could be dispensed with and the handle could be inserted in the coil 15. This coil may, therefore, be considered at the same time a spring and'a device to receive the handle.
The loop 10, as best shown in Fig. 3, may be formed at a greater or less angle to the shank 13 and other parts of the clasp, and
this arrangement together with the angular placing of the entire holding device upon the strap permits the holders to be placed at the proper angleto receive the diagonallyarranged umbrella. The security of the umbrella is augmented by the fact that in many cases, in order to bring the loops 10 in line sufficiently, the straps may be twisted somewhat, and the natural tendency of the straps to straighten out and the tendency of the loops to move out of line with each other, causes them to hold the umbrella body more securely, as understood from Fig. 1.
In the broader sense, the invention consists in devicessconnected with the straps of a suit-case to receive and hold a foldable umbrella diagonally therein. In addition, the invention comprisesmeans for holding the detachable handle in proximity to the umbrella. In a more specific form, the invention consists of clasps adapted'to be secured upon suit-ease straps without unbuckling the latter, with umbrella-holding loops carried by the clasps, and, in addition, in come cases, an eye associated with one of the holding devices to receive the dowel of a detachable handle and hold the same by en- .gagement'of the spring-latch of the handle with the eye.
The invention also consists in the specific construction and arrangement of parts as shown and described.
I claim 1. The combination with a suit-case and straps therein, of holding devices connected with the straps to removably secure an umbrella within the suit-case.
2. The combination with a suit-case and straps therein, of umbrella-holding loops secured to the straps and adapted to removably secure a foldable umbrella diagonally within the suit-case.
