COMBTNATIN ASH TRAY, MATCH BOX, .AND IGARETTE-PACKAGE HOLDER.
` Applieationled May 29; 19.23. Serial No. 642,243.
p box, and cigarette package holder.
The general object of this invention is to provide a device which -will hold a match box, a cigarette package, and also hold an ash tray in place on the instrument board of an automobile. K l
A further object is to provide a device of this character in which the ash tray may beshifted to a fully closed or fully open position whenever desired, the ash tray being.
further entirely removable from the supporting frame of the device so as to empty it.
A still further object is to provide a device of this character in which the match box and the cigarettepackage are resiliently held in place in the holder or frame in the most convenient position for the motorist to secure a. cigarette or a match. -y
Another object is to provide a device of this character in which the holder is formed of onej piece of metal.
vStill another object is to provide a device of this character comprising a holder adapted to be applied to the instrument board )f the automobile having an openingthrough which a cigarette may be inserted to discharge ashes into the `ash tray having a match box holder at the lower end with a portion of the side of the match box exposed so that matches may be struck thereon, and with a pocket or compartment formed behind'the ashv tray holder into which a cigarette package may be inserted.
L'Other objects will appear in the course of the following description. j
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of a device constructed in accordance with my invention;
Figure 2 is a detail perspective view of the I ash tray or box; y
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view Iof the device; f
' Figure 4 is a rear elevation;
Figure 5 is a view of one of the blanks; Figure 6 is a View of the .blank out of which the ash tray is formed;
Referring to these drawings, it will be seen that my improved receptacle is formed, ex-b 4cept as regards the ash tray itself, of one piece of sheet metal. This sheet metal, the blank of which is shown in Figure 5, is bent so as to provide a front 10, a top wall-11 extending rearward from the front 10, and
then/downward', as at 12. `This downwardly projecting portion is narrower than the front plate 10. The blank is bent at the sides of the plate 10 to form the side pieces 13. These side pieces extend downward from the top 11 but terminate short of the extreme lower end of the front plate 10. The side pieces have downwardly and rearwardly inclined upper and lower edges 14 and the extremities of the side pieces, are angularly bent, as at 15,
and pierced so that screws may be inserted through the openings and into the instrument board A of the machine to hold the device in place. These side walls 13 are cut out place byy the tongue 20, there being so littley space between the tongue 20, and the member 21 that the match box will'have to be forced into place and will be yieldingly held in position against any chance of detachment.
The lower edge vof the portion 12 is inwardly turned, as at 22. The front plate 10 is also formed adjacent its upper end with a segmental or nearly semi-circular o ening 23 and the metal from this opening is ent out, ward and upward, as at 24, to form a rest or guide.
Insertible through'v the opening 16 and supported upon the inwardly turned member 17 is the ash tray or box, designated tr'enerally 25. This is formed of a single blan of material bent so as to form a rectangular receptacle open at its top having opposite side walls and opposite end walls. The rear' wall '26 of this receptacle" is longitudinally grooved, as atA 27, to receive the inwardly turned bead 22 of the portion 12. The bottom wall 28 df the receptacle extends beyond the end walls, as at 30.
It will be seen that in forming this receptacle, the end walls are formed by Hanging the front and rear walls, these flanges overlapping each other at 31. Thus the front and rear walls will tend to more or less resiliently expand and when these front and rear Vwalls are forced toward each other and the ash receptacle is inserted' in rectangular openings 32 formed in the side walls 13 of the holder, the walls will tend to expand outward and the bead 22 will, therefore, engage the groove 27, thus retaining the ash receptacle or tray in its lowered position.
- ment. The device is simple,
i es and other vesupporting ears 17.
The prolongation 30 of the bottom 28 will extend out beyond the side walls of the holder so as to permit the ash tray to be moved up into the upper portion of ,the ash tray compartment with its open u per' end against the top` 11 of the holder if desired, thus preventing the wind from accidentally blowing the ashes out of the ash receptacle. When it is desired to use the aslf receptacle constantly, the ash receptacle may be drawn downward until its bottom rests upon the Under these circumstances ashesmay be knocked off of a cigar or cigarette upon the .upwardly extending liange 24 and will be discharged by this flange into the ash tray. When it is desired to dumpxthe ash tray, the ash tray may be shifted laterallyand entirely removed from the holder.
It will be noted that the sides 14 extend rearward some distance beyond the plane of the portion 12 and then are provided with the laterally extending ears'15. When this remesa at their terminations to be attached to the instrument board of an automobile, the lower end of the front plate being cut away to provide an opening for the display1 of the ignition surface of a match box and to provide clamps between which the match box is disposed, the clamps extending rearward from -said opening, the' upper end of the front wall being apertured, and an ash tray insertible into the space behind the front wall and normally held in said space to receive ashes discharged through said opening, the side walls extending beyond said ash tray whereby to form a compartment between the ash `tray and the instrument board for the reception of a package of cigarettes. V
' 2. A match box and cigarette package holder comprising a front plate having anl aperture at its lower end and an aperture at its upper end and formed to provide side walls extending from the upper end of the holder nearly to the lower end thereof, the lower ,end of the holder being angularly flanged to provide a shelf and the material cut out of the said opening being rearwardly flanged parallel to the first flange whereby to support a match box between the two flanges, the side walls below the upper opening having apertures, and an ash receiver supported device is applied to the instrument board Aby said side walls and removable through and held by screws through these ears 15,
a space is left between the rear wall 12 and the instrument board in which a package of cigarettes may be inserted, this package being held between the projecting sides 14, the instrument board, and the plate 12. Inasmuch as this plate is slightly resilient, the package will be firmly clamped in` place. It may rest at its lower end upon the match box which is disposed between the clamp 20 and the shelf 21. t v
It will be seen that this device provides a holder for match boxes, cigarette packages, and a removable ash tray, `and that this ash tray may be shifted from a receiving position to a closed position "by a very simple movecheap, may be readily a licdto automo hicles an s pports a box of matches so that the matches may be'readily secured from the matchbox and readily ignited through the.
opening 19 upon the prepared igniting face o the lmatch box.
While I have illustrated certain details said aperture, the upper end of the ash receiver being open and being disposed below the upper opening, the side walls extending beyond said ash receiver to thereby space the ash receiver from an instrument board and permit the support of a package of cigarettes between the ash receiver and the instrument board.
3. A holder .of the character described adapted to be attached to the instrument board of an automobile and having an ash receiving opening in its front wall, and an ash receiver mounted in said holder below the front wall and shiftable into a position to close said opening or out of such position.
