" HAROLD MAODOUGALL, or MAPLEWOOD, NEW JERSEY, nssrenon T0 wrriLrAivr e,
1 KENDALL, or NEWARK, NEVT :rnnsnYJ r V VANITY CASE.
This'invention relates to containers, and has particular reference to a dispensing container for use in vanity cases whereby loose powder may be carried therein and prevented from accidental spilling.
The invention broadly contemplates a loose powderxdispensing container comprising a closed body having a discharge opening in its upper end and means within the body having outlet openings, said means normally positioned to close the discharge opening and cutting off communication between the outlet openings .and the discharge opening.
The invention more specifically comprehends an improved dispensing container for loose powder, which includes a body having a discharge aperture in its top wall, an arcuate diaphragm within the body normally closing the discharge opening, said diaphragm having outlet apertures and adapted upon inward flexing of the diaphragm to uncover the discharge opening in the upper wall to dispense through the dia-, phragm outlet, a quantity of powder from the interior of the body due to the internal pressure set up by the inward flexing of the diaphragm so that a quantity of powder is dispensed through the discharge opening onto a puff or applicator.
As a further object the invention aims to provide an improved loose. powder dispensing container which includes a body composed of telescopicallyassociated sections each consisting of marginal walls and an end wall, the end wall of one section having a discharge aperture, an arcuate diaphragm positioned within said section and normally flexed outwardly to engage within and close the discharge opening, with an outlet opening formed in the diaphragm out of registry with the'dischar'ge opening in the end wall .of said body, whereby upon inward flexing movement the contents of the body is dispensed through the outlet opening and discharge opening on to the face of a puff or applicator located over the discharge opening. 7 I
'The invention furthermore provides an improved loose powder vdispensing container for vanity cases which is extremely simple in its construction and mode of operation, inexpensive to manufacture, and which is highly efficient in its purpose.
With the above recited and other objects in View, reference is had to the-following specification and accompanying drawings in which there is exhibited certain "examples or embodiments of the invention which'are in no way intended as limitations upon the scope of the appended claims as'it isto be clearly understood that variations and modi-.
fications which properly fall within the scope of said claims may be resorted to when found expedient. w a I In the drawings 1 Figure 1 is a perspective view of the vanity case; e
Fig. 2 is a sectional view therethrough il lustrating the loose powder dispensing coutainer arranged therein;
Fig. 3 is a collective perspective view of the individual parts of the dispensing container in separated condition;
Fig. 4 is a plan View of aslightly modifie d adaptation of the invention Fig. 5 is a sectional view therethrough taken approximately on the line 55 of 4:. i l Referring to the drawings by characters of reference, and more particularly to the'invention as disclosed in Figs. 2 and 3, the dispensing container consists of a n cylindrical body including upper and lower substantially cylindrical telescopically associated sections, the former having a mar- 85 ginal wall 10 and an integral upper end wall 11 joined to the marginal wall by a bead 12, which is substantially circularv in cross section. 'The central portion 13 of the upper wall is normally bowed upward- 90 ly and constitutes a flexible arcuatex diaphragm having one or more outlet openings I '14. The upper section further includes a superimposed. cover wall 15 having a con 'tral or concentric discharge opening 16,
which cover wall is formed with marginal bead 17 bent around and embracing the bead 12 so as to join the cover wall 15to the upper section; The cover wall is preferably dished inwardly and its opening 16 is normally'closed by the engagement of a portion of the diaphragm 13 within said opening. The lower section includes a marginal wall 18 which is formed, with a bottom wall or end 19 ofl'set inwardly to form a depression 20. The bottom wall or end 19 is provided with a central outwardly bowed portion 21 constituting a diaphragm, which, together with the diaphragm 13, constitutes a means for creating a compression withln the body to expel a quantity of powderor:
contents through the opening or openings 14. It is obvious that the inward movement of the diaphragm 13 uncovers the discharge opening 16' in the cover wall 15- so that the expel-led powder will be discharged through the opening 16 on to the face of a pull" or applicatorP, which is obviously positioned on the cover wall and used as a means interposed between the fingers of the operator and the diaphragm 13 for flexing the diaphragm inwardly.
.In practice the container is designed to be arranged within the body B of a vanity case, and in order to afford means for effect- 1 ing the flexing of the diaphragm 21, a suitable device 22 is interposed between the diaphragm 18 and the bottom wall C of the vanity case, said device being in the nature of a semi-spherical button, which, for instance, is provided with spider arms 23 connected with a split ring 24 which fits within the depression 20 and serves to maintain the button in a centrally disposed position.
In the modified adaptation of the invention illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5, the upper upper section.
In use, the powder or other contents is introduced to the body by separating the mating telescopic sections thereof, after wh1ch the same are reassembled and the device is ready for use. WVhen the user desires to obtain a quantity of powder, the diaphragm 13 is flexed inwardly. This simultaneou'sly uncovers the discharge'opening 16 and creates a compression within the body which effects the expelling of a quantity of powder through the opening or openings 14 on to the face of the pufl o1" applicator P. When the diaphragm is released, it flexes outwardly to a normal position where a portion of the same engages w1th1n and closes the discharge opening 16 to positively preclude accidental spilling or discharge of the powder therefrom.
From the foregoing it will be seen that 1. A container having a flexing end formed. with an. opening, and a cover for said end, said cover having an opemng out of registry with the first-mentioned opening, the opening in the cover being nor-{ mally closed by said flexing end.
2. A container including a normally outwardly bowed end capable of inward flexing, said: end having an opening through which a predetermined quantity of the contents of the container is expelled upon each inward flexing of the end, and a coverfor said end, the cover having an opening out of registry with the first-mentioned opening and normally closed by the engagement. of a portion of the outwardly bowed flexed end within said opening.
3. A loose powder dispensing container for vanity cases, comprising a pair of mating sections, said sections including telescopically associated marginal walls and end walls, the end wall of one section having an eccentric outlet opening and formed with an outwardly bowed central portion constituting a diaphragm capable of inward flexing to create a pressure within the body for expelling a quantity of powder therefrom through said opening, andv a covering wall therefor having-a concentric discharge opening closed by the diaphragm when in its normal outwardly flexed position.
#1. A loose powder dispensing container for vanity cases, including an end wall having an eccentric outlet opening and formed with an outwardly bowed central portion constituting a diaphragm cap b le of inward'flexing whereby to create a pressure within the body forexpeljling a quantity of the contents therefrom through said opening, and a cover wall for said end having a concentric discharge opening closed by the diaphragm when in its normal outwardly flexed position.
5. A container including normally out wardly bowed inwardly flexible ends, one of said ends having an aperture through which the contents of the container is expelled upon inward flexing of the end walls, and,
a cover for the apertured end, the cover having an opening disposed out of registry with the aperture and normally closed by the engagement of a portion of said outwardly bowed flexed end within the cover opening.
6. The combination with a vanity case, of a loose powder dispensing container therefor, including normally outwardly bowed inwardly flexible ends, one of said ends having an aperture through which the contents of the contalner 1s expelled upon inward flexing of the ends, and a cover for the apertured end, the cover having an opening out of registry with the aperture and normally I closed by engagement of a portion of said HAROLD MAoDOUGALL.
