COMBINED CIGARETTE AND VANITY CASE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MELVILLE A. MILLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pittsfield, in the county of Pike and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Cigarette and Vanity Cases, of which the following is a specification. This invention relates to a case designed to contain cigarettes and toilet articles; more particularly it is concerned with certain features of construction, by which the contents of the case are securely held in place.
A suggestive embodiment of this inven-- 5-5 of Fig. 1, showing the case as closed;
and
Fig. 6 is a longitudinal section through a lipstick adapted to be received within the case.
The case proper consists of the usual dished cover sections, designated respectively as 10 and 11, having joints 12- through which is extended a pintle13 to establish a hinge connection. A tongue 14 formed with joints 15 is also connected to the pintle as shown. A spring 16 tends to open the two cover sections into alinement,
as shown in Fig. 2, this same means acting to hold the tongue 14 toward the cover 10. A suitable spring lockis provided for holding the covers together when they are closed, this lock including, among othenparts, an ear 17, which is carried on a spring arm 18 suitably secured to the cover 10.
Mounted within the cover 11 as by means of a spring hinge 19 is a frame 20 adapted to carry a mirror 21, which normally lies close up against this cover. I would have i it understood, however, that the use of a spring in this hinge is entirely optional and not at all necessary. At the end of the Specification of Letters Patent.
longitudinal section theretially or fully opened position while the I Patented June 1, 1920. Application filed September 22, 1919. Serial No. 325,382.
parts continue in this relation. Because of the construction described, the present case is adapted to provide a mirror with stand therefor which may conveniently be set upon atable or other plane surface, the mirror being retained in position at about the angle lShOl/VII, or being otherwise disposed if it be desired to fully open the case and thereby lift the tongue away from the I cover 10.
- 23 substantially flush with its edges, from which depend, toward the dished bottom .of the cover, walls, one of which designated as 24, defines a-compartment within which articles such as cigarettes 25 may be received. Elsewhere other walls 26 provide compartments 27, preferably circular in form, within which may be received powder puffs 28, or, if desired, other small articles. An elongated compartment 29 may also be provided adjacent to the free end of the cover 10 for the reception of a lip stick 30. The tongue 14, which is spring pressed toward the cover 10, is shown to be provided with a cross arm 31 whose ends are adapted to overlie the powder puffs'28 so as to retain them in place; The end of the tongue, furthermore, extends in overlying relation to the compartment 29 so as -toretain therein the lip stick 30. It will be seen, therefore, that'the tongue acts to preserve in place all of the articles that arecarried in the cover 10.
The casing for the lip stick,fshown in 'detail in Fig. 6, may consist of a tube.82 slotted as at 33, and equipped with removable caps 34 at its ends. A plug 35 having a shank 36 extended through the slot 33 is adapted to be moved longitudinally of the tube when proper pressure is applied to the button end of the shank. Lip sticks may be placed within the tube, one at each end,
and eitheradapted to be projected thro ugh the medium of the plug into operative p0.-
. sition when its associated cap is removed;
The present case is very simply constructed, and because of thenovel arrangement and character of the compartments formed in thecover 10, all 'of "the :loose articles therein are adapted to be securely heuhiin Plwce through the 'sole medium of the "tongue l i. This is true whether the 'cover's of the c ase be closed or bpened,-and
