, WARDROBE TRUNK.
Application filed December 17, 1924. Serial No. 756,522.
The invention relates to a Wardrobe trunk as described in the present specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings that form part of the same.
The invention consists essentially of the novel features of construction pointed out broadly and specifically in the claims for novelty following a description containing an explanation in detail of an acceptable form of the invention.
The objects of the*invention are to facilitate the packing and unpacking of the trunk and at the same time avoid damage to rugs and carpets in opening and closing the trunk in wardrobe standing position; to construct a trunk that will eliminate all the difficulties incidental to the opening and closing thereof; to insure strength for rough handling, and permanency in a considerable portion of the structure, thus keeping the contents in better condition in the carrying of the trunk; to arrange for convenient compartments in the trunk according to the average requirements of the public; and generally to provide a trunk that will be cheap to manufacture, durable in construction and eificient in use.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the trunk in its open position.
Figure 2 is a perspective iew of the trunk in its closed position.
Figure 3 is a vertical sectional View of the trunk.
Referring to the drawings, the box 10 of the trunk is cut short at the front 11 and approximately for one half the depth of the sides 12 and 13 leaving about two thirds of the inside of the back 14 exposed, the remainder being closed in by the permanent front 11 and full sides 15 and 16.. I
The compartment lid is formed of the hinged boxes 17 and 18 which are fitted to the cut away portion of the box 10 and secured to the sides 12 and 13 by the hinges 19 and 20 and form together the lid of the l 15 trunk in which compartments are made by the drawers 21 and 22 and removable boxes 23 and 24. Another removable box 25 is set in behind the permanent front 11 and between the front portion of the sides 15 and 16 leaving the inside section of the trunk 'clear for garments supported from the hangers 26 sliding on the rods 27 and 28.
It will be thus seen that the trunk when closed presents an appearance of a very substantial nature, and so far as one end is concerned, it has four perfectly solid corners and stands on the usual fittings. In opening up only the upper portion is swung in the form of a compartment lid, and notwithstanding that the lower portion of the trunk is a complete box, all parts can be just as readily reached, as in the wardrobe trunk which opens out in two halves. In the present case the box of the trunk really has a door or doors in the trunk opening part of the way down and giving access to the interior.
What I claim is In a wardrobe trunk, a rigid casing hav ing an upper open front formed by top, bottom, rear, side and lower front walls, said bottom wall and the lower portion of said side walls projecting outwardly beyond said upper open front and with said lower front wall making a rigid container for a removable box inserted therein and partitioned ofi from the interior of said rigid casing, said removable box within the container creating a bottom wall for a pair of hinged sections forming doorsfor said upper open front, and individual locks securing said doors together and thereby locking said trunk.
