BAG FRAME CORNER Filed Feb. 6, 1926 INVENTOR WILLIAM C. HIERINO' ATTORNEY Patented June 11, 1929.
UNITED STATES. PATENT OFFICE.
HTERTNG, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR TO J. E. MERGOTT CO., 7 OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, A CORPORATION OF DELAWARE.
BAG-FRAME CORNER.
Application filed February 6, 1926. Serial No. 86,416.
This invention relates to bag frames as usedm connection with purses, portmanteaus, and hand bags of miscellaneous character. j 7
Such frames consist. of a'pair of metal frames, essentially of channel shaped cross section, bent to produce U shaped elements hingedly connected at their ends, the bag material being secured within the walls of the channels and theframes are ordinarily 'envelopedina covering of thin flexible material, as leatherQ V Thecovering material is secured as smoothly as possible over the exposed outer surfaces of bothgwalls of the frames by an adhesive, as leather cement, the edges being folded over and. around the edges of the framein a workmanlike manner; however carefully this may be done, and irrespective ofthe pliability of the material, in covering the sides of theframes at their bent corners, the outer portions will be stretched and the inner portions will be puckered .forming minute radial wrinkles, increasing in magnitude towards the axes around .which the corners are bent, resulting in an undesirable rough appearance at these points.
It'is therefore one ofthe purposes of the present invention to pr'ovide'a close fitting, permanent shield, wholly, obscuring the corner wrinkles, being applied directly over them.
It is a further feature to produce a metal corner shield that maybe finished in conformity and harmony with the other metal fittings of the frame, such as the handle connections, clasp and lock, lending an increased ornamental appearance to the bag.
Another aim is to provide corner shields that prevent wear of the frame covering at and adjacent the corners and which present no objectionable features.
These objects are achieved by the simple and novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and shown in the annexed illustration, forming an important part of this disclosure, and in which Figure 1 is a partial side elevational view of a conventional type of bag frame showing the application of an embodiment of the invention.
Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view taken on line 22 of Fig. 1, and drawn to an enlarged scale.
Figure 3 is a perspective illustration of one form of the device previous to assemblying the shield and frame. v
Figure 4 is a similar but assembled view showing a slight modification in construction of the corner.
Figure 5 is a perspective View in detail of a further modified form of shield.
The pair of frames illustrated, respectively 10 and 10, are of irregular channel shaped cross section, composed of outer curved elements 11 and 11 blending by short re-entrant curves 12 and 12' into straight flat elements 13 and 13 adapted to fold closelytogether when the bag is,closed, as best seen in Fig. 2.
As indicated in Figs. 2 and 3 both corners of each frame side contain perforations 16, the samebeing located in spaced relation at the junction of the blended curved edges 12 and straight inner side walls 13 of the channels. Y
The shields, generally designated by the numeral 17, are made of sheet metal of suitable thickness, in segmental shape, their wider, outer ends 18 being curled in conformity with the edges 12, over which the are closely fitted and curved also in the direction of their width to suit the curvature of the frame corners.
Extending from the edges 18 are downturned prongs 19 adapted to pass through the frame covering and engage in the openings 16 to become fast therein.
On the narrower inner edges 20 of the shields are single prongs 21 eventually bent upward to engage over the covering 14, outer frame wall 11 and inturned edge of the easing, tightly embracing and clamping the structure of which it forms a part.
The side edges of the shields may be given any preferred contour, and should be of suflicient width to cover all the otherwise exposed wrinkles of the bag material at the corners.
In the modification shown in Fig. 4 the prongs 19 are omitted and the outer edge of the shield extended, as at 22, to reach past the outermost portion of the curved edge 12- to firmly engage thereover, the shield being held in place by a single prong 21 as may be seen.
Figure 5 shows a form of shield of the same general construction in which the curled and curved wider end 23 is provided with a plurality of fine sharp teeth 24 adapted to pierce the frame cover material and positively prevent side movement of the shieldiwhen the prong 21 is fixed in holding position.
While the shield plates are of thin material, it is clear that their thickness will prevent normal contact between the relatively soft material of the frame casing and a surface on which they may rest, thus avoiding scratching, wear and mutilation of the casing to a considerable extent, and obviously theunavoidably puckered and wrinkled appearance of the frame corners is completely concealed. V
Although a single prong has been shown on the inner, narrower end of the shields, two or more may be used as preferred and the opposite wider end may be arranged in any of the styles indicated, the shields as clamped in place, holding the casing to the frame at points where they are most liable to become loose. 5 \Vhile certain preferred embodiments of this device have been shown and described, it will be understood that changes in the form, arrangements, proportions, sizes and details thereof may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
said frames being curved, fan shaped shield plates extending over the encased faces of said frames at the corners thereof, curled elements on the outer ends of said plates to engage over the outer rims of the frames, and one or more prongs on the inner ends of the plates to engage the inner edges of the frames, said shields being so placed as to obscure wrinkles in the pliable casing.
2. In a bag having metal frames of channel shaped cross sectionand a pliable casing secured on the exposed walls of said frames, the corners of said frames being curved, curved shield plates extending over the encased faces of said frames at the corners thereof, curled elements on the outer peripheral portions of said plates to engage over the outer rims of the frames, said rims having perforations, prongs on the outer peripheral edges of said plates to engage in the perforations, and prongs on the opposed inner edges of said plates to engage the inner edges of said frames, said shield plates overlying and obscuring the casing at the frame corners. Y
3. In a bag having channeled shaped metal frames with curved corners and a pliable casing secured on the exposed walls of said frames, said frames having perforations in the outer rims thereof, curved shield plates of substantially segmental contour extending over the faces of said frames at the curved corners thereof, curled portions of the wider, outer ends of said plates engaging over the rims of the frames, prongs onthe outer end edges of said curled portions to engagein the perforations in the frames and prongs on the opposed edges of said plates to engage the inner edges of said frames, said shield plates being so placed as to cover wrinkles in the pliable casing.
This specification signed this third day of February, 1926.
