UNHTED STATES MAX KISSELHOFF, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
ARTICLE CARRIER.
Application filed August 20, 1921. Serial No. 493,879.
To 11/] who/n 1'! may concern.
lie it known that i. Max Kissnmlow, a citizen of the United States. residing in the city of New York, county of llronx. and 5 State of New York. have invented a new and useful Improvement in Article Carriers. 0" which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates to an article supporting structure generally and more particularly to an arrangement for supporting an article carrier or container adjacent the waist line of a person.
.\s my invention is intended particularly for supporting a conductofs money box. it has been illustrated and described in such connection. although it will be understood that this is done only as a matter of convenience.
To facilitate change making. conductors generally provide themselves with the type of change container which has a number of vertical tubes, arranged each to contain coins of different values. These change containers are supported generally in front in different manners such as by straps passing around the shoulders or around the body, the particular level at which the container is supported being a matter of preference with the user. The constant frictional contact with the clothes on the one. hand and the pressure on the body caused by the presence of this container on the other hand are not only a source of discomfort to the user, but also a cause of wear and tear on the clothing. Furthermore. unless the container is maintained in proper relation to the body. it will tend to swing when the user bends and even more out of its supported relations-hip.
Among the more important objects of my invention therefore are: the provision of a. body carried support for a coin box which will maintain the coin box at all times in the desired association with the body; the provision of a body carried support for a coin box so arranged and constructed that the coin box will be held against free swinging movement; the provision of a body carried support for a coin box arranged to maintain the box against accidental release from its support; the provision of an arrangement for supporting the coin box which will reduce the wear on clothing to a. minimum; and the provision generally of a simple, inexpensive and eiiicient arrangement for maintaining the conductors coin box in position.
In attaining the foregoing objects, and certain additional benefits and advantages that will appear or be pointed out below, I have provided a construction, one embodiment of which is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a view in perspective showing the embodiment of my invention in position about the body of a wearer;
Fig. 2 is a view from the rear of a person with the support in position;
Fig. 3 is a view in front elevation of the backing member and its manner of support;
Fig. 4. is a vertical sectional View through the coin box and its support;
Figs. 5 and 6 are enlarged detail views.
pon viewing Figs. 1 and 4 it will be seen that I have shown my invention used in connection with a coin box which is referred to generally by the member 10. The coin box illustrated which is of a conventional type comprises a number of coin tubes supported vertically between platforms. The parts are braced and maintained in position by the posts 11, which are provided at their upper ends with the hooked shaped ends 12 by means of which the coin box is generally maintained in position, the hooks 12 being generally passed over a belt or strap which is carried from the body. As is obvious,this arrangement for supporting the coin box will not prevent the lower end of the coin box from swinging outwardly when the wearer moves or stoops, nor will it prevent the wear due to frictional contact with the conductors clothes. Furthermore if, accidentally or otherwise, the coin box is raised sufficiently, it will be disengaged altogether from its support. I have overcome these difliculties by the use of the structure which I will now describe.
Viewing Figures 1 and 3, it will be observed that I have provided a backing 15, which is made of a relative tough yet flexible substance such as leather. This member 15 is so dimensioned that it will extend slightly beyond the extreme portions of the coin box 10 as can be seen upon viewing Figures 1 and 4. Adjacent its upper margin this backing member 15 is provided with the two eyelets 16 and 17 spaced so as to receive the hooks 12 on the coin box. The backing member 15 is preferably carried from the shoulders of the wearer by means such as the straps 18 and 19, one end of each of these straps being secured to the eyelets 7 either to the backing member 15 or to the 16 and 17 as shown at 21 and 22. These straps are arranged to cross at the back of the wearer, being held crossed in any desired or preferred manner such as by the rivet 22. The straps then are arranged to have the end portions 23 and 24:, which extend beyond the rivet 22, pass in opposite directions around the waist line to the front of the wearer, the other or free ends 25 and 26 of the straps being provided with any desired or preferred method of attachment such as the snap fastener 27 and 28. These snap fasteners 27 and 28 are caused to engage the opposite ends of the money box preferably adjacent the lower portion thereof, they being shown in Figure 6 as engaging the end braces 29 and 30, although as is obvious they could equally well be engaged with the posts 11.
When the shoulder support is in position on a wearer as shown in Figure 1, it will be observed that the portions 23 and 24 of the straps by their engagement with the opposite sides of the lower end of the coin box 10, keep this box from swinging relatively wearer. Furthermore, these portions of the straps also hold the backing member 15 against the body to prevent any swinging movement thereof. I have thus provided an arrangement in which both the backing member and the coin box are each supported in effect. from all four corners, with the further advantage that all portions of both the backing member and the coin box are at all times maintained in proper association with the body. In addition to this, the coin box is supported against accidental re lease, and even against purposeful release except with difliculty. The backing member 15 serves to take the wear in the coin box and also to minimize the effect of pressure and friction by the coin box which is made of metal. I
For purposes of adjustment the strap portions 23 and 24 are each provided with the adjusting means shown at 33.
Although I have shown the coin box as supported at the waist line, it is obvious that by the adjustment of the elements 33, the coin box can be raised to a position above the waist line, when this is considered advisable or necessary.
Having thus described my invention and illustrated its use, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is the following: v
1. In a device of the character described, in combination, a backing member, and an article carrying member arranged to engage said backing member adjacent their upper margins, and means for supporting the two in superposed position comprising means to be secured adjacent the. corners of the upper margins of one member and adjacent the corners of the lower margin of the other member.
2. In a device of the character described, in combination, a backing member, and an article carrying member, the two being provided with means to cause them to removably engage each other adjacent their upper margins, and straps arranged each to have one end secured adjacent the corners at the upper'margins of the backing member, and the other end removably secured adjacent the corners of the lower margin of the other member, the straps being adapted to be passed over the shoulders, cross each other therebeyond and return.
In witness whereof, I have hereunder signed my name this 13th day of August,
MAX KISSELHOFF.
