Be it know'nth'at I, ANKER SJLYHNE, a citizen. of the United States,- residing at Bridgeport, county of Fairfield, State of V 75 Connecticut, have inventedan Improvement in Vanity Boxes, of which the following is a specification; Th's invention relates to vanity boxes, and ,has for" an object to provide a box of this 10 type which will'fbe neat and attractive in appearance, light weight convenient to use, and will require a small space-only-in a ladys hand bag or ocket book.
t is a further ject of the invention-to .1 provide-a vanity box which will carry com+ pactsof two different kinds of powder, and will ca them in sealed, Compartments so that there will be no spilling of the powder and no danger of mixing the two d fi'erent kinds of owder. I v With t ese and other objects -in view I have devised the improved box illustrated in the accompanying drawing,*in which- Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the box closed,
partof' the box Th a portion of the forward being shown in section.
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the boxwith the cover section raised, I
Fig. 3 is aside elevation with the sections 0 as in Fig. 2, a portion of the cover section being broken away. I
Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view of the cover section with the interior cover carrying the mirror removed. 4
Fig. 5 is a side elevation of thev box with the various covers in open position, portions" being broken away to more clearly showithe construction.
Fig. 6 is a partial section through the 9 box on an enlar scale substantially on the line 6-6 of ig. 1, and,
Fig. 7 is a detailed sectional view showing the method of-mounting the inner cover.
The box comprises two cup shaped tions preferablymade of thin sheet metal and finished in any desired manner-with or without decorations on the outer walls thereof. In the showing in thedrawing, the thickness of the various walls .is somewhatexaggerated. The twosections of the box comprise the bodysection f0 and the.
cover section 11 preferably hinged to v ther by hinge 12, the sections ofithi's hinge ing secured to the-sections of thebox by any suitable means, but preferably by lugs 13 passing through 0 enings in the side walls and bent over on t e inner sides as shown in F 1g. 4. The upper part of the side wall of the lower section 10 is rolled to provide a flange 14 of somewhat smaller diameter than that of'the body ofthe section, so'that it is I adapted to telescope within the cover section 11,- and also to provide a shoulder 15 to form a stop for the edge of the cover sec tion and to give a smooth continuous and neat appearance to the. outer walls of the box when the two sections are closed togather.
Otherwise the lower or body section is plain and is ada ted-to have secured to the ttom thereof, y any suitable means such as cement, a powder-compact which comprises usually a metal plate 16 upon the upper wall of which moistenedlpowder is allowed to harden providing a cake ofpow der secured to the plate as shown at 17.
Above this compact is carried the usual ufi 18 for applying the powder to the s 'n.
powder carried in this typeof box.
is powder. is ordinarily the usual white It is very often desirable, however, to
carry another kind of powder especially one which hasqcoloring matter, such as rouge, mixed with it, and as, the useris 'often somewhat sensitive about car ing,
this t e of powder it is desirable to ave it enc osed in a sealed container which will not 0 en when the box is opened for the 'use 0 the ordinary white powder. To provide for this I mount within the cover section a cupped lining 19 which may 'bese-Y cured in the cover section in any. suitable manner, but 1 preferably roll the side walls so as to rovide a bead or rim 20 which will snugly t the inner walls of the side's of the section, and when the lining is forced into this section it will be securely held therein Preferably in the center of the bottom of the cupped section I form a depression 21 within which is mounted the second ow'der compact comprisinga plate 22 on w ich is mounted the cake of powder 23. This compact is usually smaller than that carried in the body section as not as much of this powder is used as of the white powder;
Around the lower edge of depression 21 I locate an outward an guard 24 preferably substantia pwardly1 extending I y crescent shaped as shown in Fig. 4, and secure it to the cupped lining by any suitable means such as lugs 25 extending through openings in the lining and bent over on the under side thereof. A second puff 26 is carried by this cupped lining and retained therein by the guard 24. This guard Wlll also catch powder which is loosened from the compact by the puff. The side wall of the lining 19, as shown at 27, is somewhat smaller in diameter than the sides of the cover section so that when this lining is insorted in the cover section this side wall will be spaced from the side walls of the cover to allow the entrance of flange 14 on the body section between the lining and cover section. The lining is also provided' with an internal bead 28 spaced a suitable distance from the edge thereof upon whlch the cover 29 may rest when closed.
This cover 29 is a sheet metal cup within which is mounted a mirror 30 and is hinged to the lining 19 b hinge loops 31 and 32 formed integral with the cover and lining and adapted to embrace the hinge in 33 in the usual manner. The cover 29 fits snugly within the open side of the lining 19 so as to seal the same and prevent powder in the cover section from leaking therefrom either to the body section or when the box is opened. Also, as this cover 29 fits the lining snugly, when the box is openedthis cover will be raised with the cover section and all that will be visible will be the white powder and puff, andthe mirror 30.. If it is desired to use any of the powder carried by the cover section the upper edge of the cover 29 may be drawn forwardl by the lip 34 giving access to the pow er and puff carried by this cover section.
I preferably slit the side-wall of the cover section as shown at 35 and press a small lug 36 in the body section to extend into th1s slit when the box is closed to form a catch to secure it in closed position. By pressing inwardly on the front of the side wall of the body section adjacent the lug 36, as shown at-37, the side wall of the body section will be sprung in sufficiently to re lease this catch and allow the box to open.
It will be ap arent from the foregoing that I have provided a box which will carry two different kinds of powder in separate sealed containers or compartments, so that the two kinds of powder will not mix but will always be kept entirely separate.
They are. also arranged in such manner that the boxis compact and so will not require a great deal of space. By spacing the lining from the cover section to allow entrance of the flange 14.- between these two elements, I have been enabled to greatly reduce the thickness or hei ht of the box when closed. It will also e apparent that the various puffs, powder compacts, and the mirror are easily accessible at all times.
Y Having thus described the nature of my invention, what I claim is:
1. A vanity box comprising cover and body sections adapted for telescoping engagement, one of said sections adapted to carry a powder compact and puff, a cupped lining for the other section s aced from the inner wall of the same at its ree edge to allow entrance of the free edge of the other section therebctween, said cupped lining adapted to carry a powder compact and puff, and a cover for closing said cupped lining.
