W. WARD POWDER PUFF Filed June 14, 1921 Patented June 9, 1925.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
rpwnnn PUFF.
Application filed June 14,
To (/ZZ whom it may concern:
.ie it known that I, VALTER mm, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hunter, in the county of Mitchell and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and asefnl Improvements in Powder Puli's, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in powder puli's and has as its object to provide a .puli' designed to contain a quantity of face powder and at the same time so constructed as to prevent loss of powder and sitting of the same over adjacent objet-ts.
.Another object of the invention is to provide a powder puff of the type mentionod above, which may be readily and conveniently replenished whenever required and which, in use, will permit of the sifting out of the required amount of powder and in which means is provided for enclosing and covering the walls of the powder pocket so as to prevent the same coming in contact with surrounding objects and depositing powder thereon or becoming soiled.
In the accoi'l'ipanying drawings:
Figure l is a perspective view of the powder putt embodying the present invention opened for use;
Figure 2 is a vertical dianietric sectional view through the puff closed; I
Figure 3 is a detail transverse sectional view on the line 33 of Figure 1 looking in the direction indicated by the arrows.
The pufi embodying the invention includes a cover member which is indicated in general by the numeral 1 and which may he of any material suitable for the purpose and impervious to powder, such for example as chamois skin, and this cover member comprises flap portions 2 and 3 integrally connected by a reduced neck or web portion in The flaps 2 and 3 may be of the circular form illustrated in the drawings or of any other more or less fanciful form and while, if the neck or web 4: is integral with the said portions, the entire cover member may be out from a single piece of chamois skin, it will be understood that the web & n'iight be formed separate from the flaps 2 and S and subsequently united thereto in any suitable manner.
The powder pocket of the puff is indicated in general by the numeral 5, and the said pocket comprises walls 6 and 7 preferably 1921. Serial No. 477,453.
of a marginal contour correspoi-id'ing to that of one of the flaps. The walls 6 and 7 may he cut from a piece of wool or other material found suitable for the purpose and pervious to powder. In forming the pocket the walls (5 and 7 are disposed in marginal registration and superposed relation upon one of the flaps for example the flap 2 of the cover member 1, and the margins of the said walls 6 and 7 and the man gin of the flap 2 are united throughout the circumference of the pocket as for example by a ribbon 8 which may likewise be continned about the margin of the flap 3. In applying the ribbon it is extended at the ends of the connecting web portion l, and. theiefore the walls 6 and 7 of the pocket are left disconnected opposite the said web portion so as to provide a mouth S) for the pocket through which mouth a suitable quantity of powder 10 may be introduced into the pocket. In order that the mouth of the pocket may be closed, a ribbon 11 is preferably threaded through openings 12 formed in the walls of the pocket and in the flap 2 near the integral web portion 3, and is tied for example in a bow knot 13 at the exterior surface of the flap 2.
From the foregoing it will be evident that when the puff is not in use, the flap 3 may be swung downwardly upon the web portion 4 as a hinge and so as to cover the xposed surface of the wall 6 of the powder pocket, and inasmuch as the wall-s of the cover member are of a material impervious to powder, powder will be prevented from sifting from the puff and lodging upon surrounding objects. It will also be evident that when the ribbon 11 is drawn more or less taut the mouth of the pocket will he. closed, and furthermore the said mouth is to an extent closed by the web portion at when the flap 3 is in closed position or in other words is folded down to overlie the wall 6 of the powder pocket. Thus, the member 1' being of material impervious to powder, powder is prevented from being deposited upon surrounding objects and yet when the flap 3 is swung to the open posh tion shown in Figure 1, the wall 6 of the pocket may be applied to the face and will serve every purpose of a powder puff.
In order that the powder putt embodying the invention may be kept closed when not in use, the flap 2 is provided'opposite the connecting portion at with one member 14 of a snap fastener, the eorresponding portion of the flap 3 being provided with a tab-15'carrying the other member 16 of said fastener, the tab 15 being adapted to be brought about the edge of the flap 2, and the members 14 and 16 mutually engaged as shown inv Figure 2 of the draw ings.
Havin thus described the invention b 1 what 18 elalmed as new 1s: y
In a powder pufi, a cover member eo1nprising eoaetlng flaps and a. eonneotlng neck portiorn said cover member benig of a material impervious-to powder, a pocket of a material pervious to powder secured to one of said flaps and adapted to be covered by the same and by the other flap and having a mouth presented toward said connecting neck portion, there being spaced openings formed in the pocket-carrying flap at said mouth, a flexible securing element extending through said openings for closing the mouth, and interengaging fastening devlees carried by the flaps for holding the cover 1n closed position.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
