' HINGE FOR VANITY BOXES AND 'IHE LIKE.
Application meaJune 19, 1924. seriall No. 721,056.
To all 'whom 1 5 may concern:
Be it known that I, CARL Kozn, a citizen of the United States, residing atF Newark, in the county of Essex and -State of/New Jersey, have invented certain new and; useful Improvements in Hinges for AVanity Boxes and the like, of which the vfollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in hinges for vanity boxes and similar containers which are made of sheet metal, although the principles of the invention may find embodiment in other structures where parts are hingedly` connected. v v- In the ordinary vanity box the wall of the body of the box andthe rim of the lid are formed with interitting pintle lugs through which is fitted a wire pintle pin. This ordinary construction, however, presents the disadvantage that the hinge connectionv is liable to become sprungiftany undue strain is placed thereon accidentally, or the pin is liable to become bent, thereby -interi'ering with the proper closingV of the lid, or the pin is liable to become completely disengaged from the pintle lugs, thereby requiring yits replacement, or,`if actually lost, rendering the box unfit for further 'use. Furthermore, this pin constitutesa separate and distinct element apart from the pintle lugs upon the body of the box and the lidI and must be manufactured. separately from these parts which, of course, adds tothe cost of manufacture of the article as a whole. the disadvantages presented by the drdinary pin, the present invention has as its general object to provide a hinge connection between the body and lid of a receptacle such las a vanity box, which connection will be of such nature as to overcome the disadvantages above outlined.
Another object of the present invention is to entirely dispense with the employment of a pintle pin in a hinge connection of the class mentioned, thus eliminating the cost of labor and material incident to the provision of such a pin.
The ordinary vanity box which has its lid hinged in the usual `manner as above described,` presents the further disadvantage that the hinge projects beyond the circumferential surface of the box and lid so that when the'l box is carried in a handbag, which vis of delicate material, the hinge is liable to wear a hole in the bag or mutilate the lining of the bag, It is, therefore, another In view of lower important object of the present `invention to provlde a hinge for the purpose stated which will be Hush with the circumferential surface of the box thereby permitting'the box to be smooth surfaced throughout its entire exterior and completely. obviating the wear and mutilation of: the handbag in which the box may be carried".
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a vanity box equipped with the hinge embodying the present invent ion,
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view taken substantially on the line 2 2 of Figure 1, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows,`
Figure 3 is a similar view taken on the line .3-3 of Figure 1,-looking in the direction indicated bythe arrows,
Figure 4 is a transverse sectional` view taken substantially on the line 4,-4 of Figure 2, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows. y
In the drawings the numeral 1 indicates iik/general the body of a flat circular vanity case which is formed of sheet metaLand the numeral 2 indicates ingeneral the lid of the case, which is likewise formed of sheet metal, the body of the case or' box having its circumferential wall 3 formed with the usual inward offset 4 about which the rim 5 of, the lid 2 is designed to fit when the lid is closed, so that thc exterior surface of thelidvwill be flush with the exterior surface of the Wall of the body The wall 3 of the body of the box is stamped or otherwise acted upon to provide an approximately cylindrical seat 6 having an open sidefpresented at the exterior of the wall and indicated by the numeral 7, and having closed ends indicated by the f numeral' 8. Initially, these ends 8.are of flat form.
The lid 2 has `its rim 5 provided with a depending extension 9 which is of a width substantially equal 4to the internal length of the seat 6, and this extension 9 has its portion rolled toprovide a hollow cylindrical open-ended pintle, lug indicated by the numeral 10, the lug being located at the inner side of the said extension 9 and 'the outer surface-0f the said extenslon being flush with the outer surface of the rim 5; The pintle lug 10 is of a diameter to lit snugly and yet ,rotatably within the seat form, and are exteriorly of a diameter to snugly fit within the ends of the pintle lug 10 and yet permit of free rotation of the said pintle lug Within the seat and, at
its ends, about the said studs. -In this manner, without the employment of the usual. pintle pin, a direct hinge connectionV is provided between the lid and the body of the box. The connection is such that the parts will not become separated even though they be subjected to considerable strain, and, furthermore, due to the relatively close fit of the pintle lug 10 in the seat 6 :and the relatively snug engagement of the. studs 12 in the open ends of the said pintle lug, the hinge connection is a tirm` one as distinguishedfrom the loose and insecure hingc connection ordinarily employed. Likewise, there is just sufficient frictional contact between the mutually engaging parts of the hinge to insure of thelid of the box remaining in open position when so swung, so that if a mirror is provided in the lid, the one using the box may useof the mirror without the interruption incident to dropping of the lid to'closed position, which would be likely to occur if the hinge connection were of the ordinary v.In'order that the extension' 9 which, in fact, constitutes a shank for supporting the pintle lug 10, may be housed substantially flush with the exterior surface of the wall 3 of the body of the box,` thesaid-wall, immediately above the open side 7 of the seat 6, is struck in, as at '.13, to provide a shallow recess 14e of a width equal to the shank, the pintle lug bein Width of the said'ishank 9 and designed to accommodate said shank when the lid is in closed position, as clearly shown inv Figurcs 1 4and 2 of the drawings. While the studs 12 are shown as substantially of conoidal form, that is to say, more or less rounded exteriorly, they may be formed to approximately conical form, if this should be desirable.
In the illustrated embodiment of the in` vention, the two members are integral with ,the body ,and lid of the box and formed directly from the material of the said body and lid. However, it will be understood that the invention is not to be lrestricted to this precise embodiment for the socket and pntle lug members might be formed separate from the body and lid respectively and secured to the said body and lid.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is:
1. A sheet metal hinge comprising a member in the form of a substantially cy'- lindrical hollow seat open at one side, amember in the form of a'hollow, substantially cylindrical, open-ended pintle lug having a shank, the pintle lug being rotatably received in the seat with the shank extending through the open sideoffthe latter,4 and 'means integral with the ends of the seat e`r1,1:, aging in the open ends of the pintle lug.
2. A sheet metal hinge comprising a member in the ormof a substantially cylindrical hollow seat open at one Side, the' said seat having closed ends, and a member,
in the form of a hollow substantiall cylindrical, open-ended pintle lug havmg a rotatably received in the seat with the s ank extending through the open side of the latter, the said ends of the seat having .portions engaglng inthe open ends of the pintle lug. In testimony whereof aiix my signature.
