VANITY CASE.
Application filed Jul 29,
My. i11ventionrelates to a new and improved vanity case orcompact holder.
:One of the objects of my invention is to provide a new and improved vanity case which shall be adapted-to contain two removable cosmetic compacts, each of which shall'be readily and separately accessible and removable.
Another object of .myfinvention is to pro- Vide a device of this character which shall be simple-and eflicient and economical to manufacture. 1
Another object of my inventionis to provide a device which shall be compact and which will have an ornamental appearance. Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawings which illustrate a preferred embodiment of my invention, it being understood that the above general statement ofthe objects of my invention is intended merely to generally explain the same and not to limit it in any manner. I 1

Fig. 8 is a bottom plan View of .the top compartment or drawer.
, Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the guide for the bottom sliding drawer. v
The vanity case is provided with a body portion 10 having a cover 13connected thereto by means of a hinge 15. The .cover 13 is provided with a mirror :27 and it has a latch or detent 24: of the usual construction whereby thezcover can be held inthe closed position. a I
As shownmore clearly in Figs. 7 and 9, the casing 10 is provided with a guide for the lowerdrawer or compartment 12. This 1926. Serial no. 125,632.
guide comprises a metal member 32 bent into a Uss'hape'as shown-in Fig. 9. The legs of the member 32 are provided with longitudinal guide recesses orslots 29 and with lateral slots 28 which are separated from the longitudinal guide slots 29 by mean of suitable webs, as shown in Fig. 9.
The bottom sliding drawer or compartment 12 is provided with pins 30 which are adapted to slide in the guide grooves 29 of theguide 32. The front otthe casing 10 is' .er compartment 12 can be assembled without thecasing 10. fitting the lugs or pins 30 within the slots 29 and the ii'ont of the compartment 12 can then be moved through the opening 14. At the same time, the guide- 32 can be moved forwardly until it fits in proper position within the casing 10. The
front of the lower compartment 12 is prov vided with a finger-hold 22.
, However, the guide 32 could be permanently aflixed to orbe otherwise formed in the casing 10, as my invention is not limited in this respect to the particularconstruction shown in this preferred embodiment.
7 However, this construction permits the parts to be simply and economically manufactured and assembled.
The top compartment 11 is provided with a cylindrical seat for receiving a compact 17,
and the bottom compartment 12 is provided with a similar seat for receiving a second compact 16. These compacts are preferably tormedin ,metal bases or holders as shown in my previously issued U. SflPatent No. 1.19%,185, and the bottom compartment 12 is provided with holding tongues 19 and the upper compartment 11 is provided with similar holding tongues 1 8, foryengaging these compacts'while permitting the ready removal thereof.
The upper compartment 11 is provided with a blade spring 20 which tends to upwa-rdly force the base of the upper compact; [17 when the saidspring 20 is bent so as to curve it upwardly. The outer end of the spring 20 is associated with a pushmember 21 which can be pushed inwardly by the user. A blade spring 31 is provided upon the underside of the upper compartment 11 and this provides the necessary resilience for forcing the member 21' to the outer position. v i
As shown clearly in Fig. 7, for example, the member 21 is provided with a vertical part 23 which moves in a guideslot in. the upper face of the upper compartment 11 so as to positively guide the movement of the said member 21. As clearly shown in Fig. 7, the outer endof the spring20 is curved to provide a doubled, end 20 and this is actuated by the member 21. As shown in Fig. 2, for example, the pusher 21 projects through a slot in the upper portion of the front face of the casing 10 so that it can be readily manipulated.
The casing 10 is provided at the four oorners thereof with ndentations 25 so that four smalllugs are formed upon the inner face of the said casing 10 and these lugs are adapted to engage corresponding depressions 25 in the upper compartment ,11 in order to firmly retain the same. The cover 13. is provided with a frameg26 for the mirror 27.
As shown in Fig. 6, the bottom compart ment 12 isprovided witha small hole in the bottom thereof by means ofwhich the bottom compact 16 can be removed. As shown in Fig. (l, for example, the respective compacts are provided with individual powder puffs. Oneof these compacts maybe a face powder compact and the other may bea rouge compact. I i
It is obvious that when the coverof the vanity case is opened that the top compact "is immediately accessible andthat the bottom compact can be made readily accessible by slidingthe bottom drawer outwardly.
As shown in' Fig. 2, the pins 30can slide to the rearof the guide 32 and the webs separating the vertical slots 28 from the lateral slots 29 are given a suitable concave shape in order to permit this. Hence, in assembling the guide 32 and the lower compartment 12, they can be first moved into the relative position shown in Fig. 2 and the parts thus assembled can be properly located in the casing 10.
. made of suitable stamped metal.
Thus. although I have shown the guide means 32 as being formed separately from, the casing 1n my. preferred embodiment, I
do not limitmy invention to such independent or separate construct-ion of the guide mcans32. Heretofore, in guiding sliding drawers in compact boxes of this character, it has been customary to form the bottom of the box with a guideslot or the like and this was unsightly and frequently clogged. I be- 7 lieve andclaim that I am the first to provide suitable guide means in the vertical 'walls of a compact holder as before specified.
It would be within the scope of my {inven- All thc partsof the device "are preferably slid to and fro through the said opening, a,
guide associated with said opening and consisting solely of a U-shaped metal strip independent of said tray and located within the said casing, the base of the said U-shaped metal member being opposite the openingin n the said casing and being adjacent a. vertical wall of the said casing, the said guide contacting with the rear wall and with the longitudinalwalls of said casing, the legs of the said U-shaped guide member having longitudinal guide grooves formed therein, the
rear portion of the said tray having lugs adapted to engage the guide grooves in said legs, the height of the said opening being sufiicient to permit the rearward insertion of the said sliding tray. r
2. A vanity case comprising arectangular casing having an opening in a. wall thereof, a slidable tray adapted to be longitudinally slid to and fro through the said opening, a. guide associated with said opening and consistingsolely of a U-shaped metal strip independent of said tray and located within the said casing and the base of the said U- shaped metal member being opposite the opening in the said casing and being adjacent a vertical wall of the said casing, the said guide contacting with the rear wall and with the longitudinal walls of said. casing,
the legs of the said U-shaped guide member.
having longitudinal guide grooves formed therein, the rear portion of the said tray having lugs adapted to engage the guide grooves in; said legs. the height of the said opening being sufficient to permit therear:
ward insertion of the said sliding tray. the outer ends of the said guide grooves being spaced from the outer ends of the said legs.
3. A vanity case comprisinga rectangular casinghaving an opening in a' wall thereof, a slidable tray adapted to be longitudinally slid to and fro through the said opening, a guide associated with said opening and consisting solely of a U-shaped metal strip independent of said tray and located within,
the said casing and the base of the said 1 U-shaped metal member being opposite the opening in the said casing and being adjacent a vertical wall of the said casing. the said. guide contacting with the rear wall and with the longitudinal walls of said casing, the legs of the said U-shaped guide member having longitudinal guide grooves formed the branches of each said guide groove being therein, the rear portion of the said tray substantially parallel to the bottom of the having lugs adapted to engage the guide casing and the other branch being substan 10 grooves in said legs, the height of the said tially perpendicular to said bottom of the 5 opening being suflicient to permit the rearcasing.
