ceptacle and more particularly to a device for holding knitting worstedwor yarn in wound or ball forni to prevent the worsted or yarn from becoming soiled or twisted during use and non-use. e
An object of this invention is to provide a removable cover, having a keyhole slot therein to allow the worsted or yarn to be unwound from within the receptacle during the process of knitting.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a knitting receptacle of the above stated character, which shall be simple, durable and eicient, and which may be manufactured and sold at a4 comparatively low cost.
- Vith these and other objects in View as will become more apparent as the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combi- I fied form of invention illustrating an elonnation and arrangement of parts as will.
be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
For a complete understanding of my invention, reference is to be had to the following description Iand accompanying draw-` ings, in which Figure 1 is a top plan view oi' a form of invention illustrating thev cover .having a pair of keyhole slots.
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of my invention illustrating the receptacle divided into two compartments by removable partitions,
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of a still modigated receptacle divided into two compartments,
Fig. t is a vertical sectional view illustrating the modified form of invention positioned within a working bag, and
Fig. 5 is a further modied form of inable manner. receptacle 1 kadjacent the top are suitable ears 5 for receiving the ends of a handle (i,v
vention illustrating an elongated receptacle divided by removable partitions in the three compartments.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the numeral 1 indicates asubstantially cylindrical receptacle, having its lower end closed by a bottom wall 2 and outwardly and downwardly depending fianges 3 formed thereon for receiving a weighted base et, which may be secured withinthe flanges 3 in any suit- Formed oneaoh side of the wherein the device may be readily conveyed trom one place to another. A cover 7 having an l annular downwardly depending flange 8 is positioned upon the receptacle 1 vand-has formed therein a keyhole slot 7 the edges of which are turned inwardly as illustrated at 9 to form a smooth edge to the `keyhole slot 7. The keyhole slot 7 eX- tends from the center of the cover 7 to the edge thereofand through the iiauge as clearly illustrated in Fig. 1.
In operation, a ball of worsted or yarn is positioned within the receptacle 1 and the end ofthe yarn is passed through the keyhole slot 7 'from the edge of the cover until it is positioned within the substantially circular portion of the keyhole slot7 and as the worsted is-`used up in knitting, it may be readily withdrawn from the substantiallyl circular portion of thekeyhole slot 7 withoutthe danger of. the yarn or worsted becoming cut or torn through thekeyhole slot 7.
Referring to my modified form of invention which is disclosed in Figs. 1 and 2, it consists of a substantially cylindrical receptacle 10, having its lower end closed by a bottom wall 11. z An outwardly and downwardly depending lange 12 is `vformed on the bottom 11 to receive a weighted base 13,
by passing i which is secured therein in any suitablev downwardly curved flange 2O formed thereon to be received within the flared end 18 of the receptacle 10. rlhe cover 19 is provided with keyhole slots 2l and 22, directly over each of the compartments within the receptacle l0 formed by the removable partition 17. rlhe end ofthe worsted within the compartment of the receptacle l0 may be passed out through the keyhole slots 2l and 22 as desired without the danger of the yarn or worsted becoming broken or cut, the edges of the keyhole slets 2l and 22 being bent inwardly as illustrated at 23 to present a curved or smooth working surface for the yarn and worsted to travel upon. ln this form of receptacle, two kinds of worsted may be readily stored and unwound therefrom through the keyhole slots 2l and 22 as desired by the user while knitting. if desired the partition 17 may be removed and the receptacle can be employed for storing the article which is being knitted to prevent same from dirt and otherl foreign matter while not being worked upon.
Referring to my modified form of invention as disclosed in Figs. 8 and 4, it consists of a substantially elongated receptacle 2e, being divided into two compartments by the removable casing 25 which is held within the receptacle 24: by guide strips 26 secured to the walls thereof. A. cover 26 is positioned upon the receptacle 2st and has a suitable handle 27 secured thereto for removing the cover from the receptacle when desired. rlhe cover 26 is provided with a pair of keyhole slots 27, the'edges of which are turned inwardly to present a smooth working surface for the yarn or worsted which is positioned within each of the compartments to work upon. The receptacle 24 is positioned within the hand bag or working bag 28, consisting of a bottom 29 which the receptacle 24;
is positioned on and secured to by any suitable fastening means. rl`he bag 28 is provided with a guide way 30 for receiving a draw string 31 for closing the mouth of the bag when desired. rlhis form of invention provides a receptacle which will contain two different colors of worsted and which vcolors of worsted may be readily unwound therefrom through the keyhole slots 27 ont through the mouth of the bag 28. The bag 28 acting as a place for storing the article which is being knitted when not working upon same and also provides a convenient means of transporting the receptacle 24 from place to place along with the article which is being knitted.
Referring to my modified form of invention as disclosed in Abig. 5, it consists of an elongated receptacle 32 having ears 33 formed on each end thereof for receiving a handle 34'. A. cover 35 is positioned upon the receptacle and has secured thereto suitable handles 37 for withdrawing the cover 35 from the receptacle when desired. Suitable guide strips 38 are secured within the sides of the receptacle for receiving removable partitions 39 and 40 which divide the receptacle into three separate compartments. The cover 35 is provided with keyhole slots il, i2 and 43, the edges of which are turned inwardly to present a curved working surface and being in communication with each of the compartments of the receptacle for allowing the yarn or worsted within the compartments to be slid outwardly from the receptacle when desired.
vWhile l: have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed. Y
Having thus described my invention, what l claim is As an article of manufacture, a yarn holder comprising a receptacle having an open upper end, a weighted bottom and vertical interior guide strips arranged in pairs, a removable partition strip engaged in said pairs of guide strips to divide said receptacle into separate compartments, a removable flanged cover for said receptacle provided with a key hole slot above each compartment from the center thereof to one edge, the large end of said slot being located above the center of the compartment, and a transportin@- handle for said receptacle.
ln testimony whereof l affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
