Application led April 14,
To aZ'Z fwwmzftmag/ concern: r
Be it known that 1, MARTIN Wmnnonnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ruddock, in the parish of St. John the Baptist and State of Louisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soap-Holders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The present invention relates to a device for holding a cake of soap or other article or object, and aims to provide a novel and improved, yet simple and inexpensive device of that kind, which is adapted especially for use out-of-doors, and which will protect the soap or other contents from the weather, as well as placing the soap or article out of the reach of children.
A further object is the provision of such a holder adapted especially for holding soap, although useful for other purposes, including a tilting receptacle and a novel arrangement and construction of the coinponent parts.
l/Vith the foregoing and other objects in view, which will be apparent as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changesV can be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing' from the spirit of the invention.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of the holder with the receptacle swung open.
Fig. 2 is a vertical section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 3 with the receptacle closed.
Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2.
The holder comprises a casing constructed of wood or other suitable material, and having the opposite sides 5, the back 6 and the top 7, which is preferably inclined to shed rain forwardly over the receptacle, the forward edge 8 of the top 7 projecting beyond the forward edges of the sides 5. rlhe casing may be supported in any suitable manner, and, as shown, metal tongues 9 are secured to the back 6 near the top, and have apertured terminals 10 to engage nails Specification of Letters Patent.

or other supporting elements driven into a `wall or `other support.
kbottom ofthe casing, when the receptacle is in closed position, as seen in Fig. 2. The
In using the holder', by pulling the knob or handle 18 forwardly, the receptacle is swung forwardly and downwardly to the position sho-wn in Fig. 1, and the cake of soap will drop onto the wall or shelf to be conveniently removed and placed4 back in the receptacle. To close the receptacle,
it is swung upwardly and rearwardly, and the cake of soap will drop Jfrom the wall l1 onto the wall or bottom l2, as seen in Fig. 2, thereby assisting the weight of the receptacle, in holding the receptacle closed.
Having' thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is A Vholder' of the kind described comprising a casing having sides, a bottom and a top; and a receptacle within the casing having front and bottom walls, side wings connected to and located between said walls, and a strip Vsecured to the rear portions of said bottom wall and wings; .said wings being hingedly connected adjacent to the corner between said bottom and front walls to said sides adjacent to the lower forward corners of said sides for the outward and inward swinging movement of said receptacle, the front wall having flanges project- Ving beyond said wings to bear against the Vfront edges of said sides when the recep- Y tacle is swung inwardly to closed position, said flanges being movable around the lower forward corners of said sides to move under and bear upwardly against the lower edges of said sides when the receptacle is swung outwardly to open position, the top of the casing projecting at its forward edge beyond the forward edges of the sides and the front wall being movable under said forward edge of the top when the receptacle is in closed position, and said strip being movable under the forward edge portion of the top whenthe receptacle isin 'open position.
In testimony whereof have signed my name to this specification in the two subscribing witnesses.
MARTIN WINDECKER.
