PATENT OFFICE.
ELIZABETH M. STEPHENS, OF LlOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
SOILED-CLOTHES RECETPTACLE.
Application filed April 14, 1924. Serial No. 706,317.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELIZABETH M. S'rnrnnNs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented a new anduseful Improvement in- SoiledGlotlies Receptacles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates more specifically to a receptacle for soiled clothes designed to be used in connection with stationary laundry trays.
An important object of my invention is to provide a receptacle or hamper for soiled clothing that may be conveniently located above a stationary laundry tray, whereby the soiled articles may be easily and quickly discharged directly into the laundry tray when it is desired to launder the same.
A further object is toprovide a soiled clothing receptacle so constructed that articles may be readily deposited therein, and which will afford perfect ventilation of the soiled articles. I
A further object is to provide a device that is simple and economical in construction, sanitary, and which will economize in house space.
In the accompanying drawings I have illustrated a preferred embodiment of my invention. it being understood however, that no limitation is necessarily made to thev precise structural details therein exhibited,
but various changes, alterationsand modifications may be resorted to within the scope of my invention when desired.
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the device secured above a laundry trayof usual form.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, withthe swinging closure shown in an open position in dotted lines.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view with the closure in an open position.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, 5 designates a soiled clothing receptacle adapted to be secured to a wall directly above a stationary laundry tray of the form usually employed in connection with resi dences. Receptacle 5 is preferably constructed of wood, and consists of end walls 6, 7, a bottom b ard nd front and rear walls 10, 11, respectively. The front edges of the end walls incline downwardly and inwardly from the front wall-10 to the bottom 9 to effect a quick dischargeof the soiled articles therefrom. Secured to the lower transverse edge of front wall 10 by hinges 12, is a swinging door 13, provided on its lower edge at the center thereof with a spring latch 14, that engages a keeper 15 secured to the front edge of the bottom 9 when the door is closed. Secured to the bottom 9 and extending downwardly there from is a metal towel rack 16, the door 13 being provided with a mirrorl'? designed for utilitarian as well as ornamental purposes.
The receptacle is designed to be secured directly above stationary laundry trays, which are usually erected on screen porches, and is secured to the wall by screws 18, or other similar securing means that pass through the rear wall strip 11. By locating the soiled clothes receptacle directly above a laundry tray, the laundress may quickly discharge the articles directly into the tray for sorting purposes, and further,
by forming the receptacle of hopper form so that the swinging closure 13 is dis posed at an inclination to the laundry trays, no interference will be offered during a laundering operation.
It will be further observed that by the use of my improved laundry receptacle the necessity of maintaining portable receptacles in closets, rooms, or hallways of residences, is avoided, thus not only economizing in space but contributing materially to sanitation.
What I claim is: V
l. A laundry receptacle comprising a receptacle open at its upper end having side and bottom walls, a downwardly and inwardly inclined swinging front wall hinged at its upper transverse edge, and a latching means secured to the lower transverse edge of'the swinging front wall.
2. In combination with a stationary laundry tray, of a soiled clothes receptacle disposed thereabove and arranged to disreceptacle will fall directly into thela-nndry tray.
In Witness that I claim the foregoing, I 10 have hereunto subscribed my name this 24th (la of March, 1924,
bottom walls, a downwardly and inwardly inclined swinging front wall hinged to said receptacle at its upper edge, and a latch secured to the lower transverse edge of said front wall and-engaging-a keeper on the edge of the bottoin wall, whereby when the front wall is released the contents of the i ELIZABETH M; STEPHENS.
