SANITARY CONTAINER FOR TOOTHPICKS Filed April 9, 1928 INVENTOR Patented Get. l, 1929 insana ELIGIO BRAVO, OF SANTIAGO, (TUBA` SANITARY CONTAINER FOR TOTHPICKS Application filed April 9, 1928. I Serial No. 268,641.
The object of the invention is to provide i a sanitary container for toothpiclrs embodying certain new and novel features hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my improved sanitary container for toothpiclrs.
Fig. 2is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary transverse sectional view illustrating in particular the hinge as embodied in my improved device.
Fig. 4 is a top plan view illustrating in particular a further development of my proved device.
Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4. l
As here embodied my improved sanitary container for toothpicks embodies a container 10 or receiver of transverse semicircular concave section which is provided with closed ends 11 and 12, and an enlarged lower 3o central element 13, or base extended therefrom longitudinally, as a means of providing a suitable support for the said container. The container 10 is open at the top thereof, and has hinged thereto as at 14, 15, 16 and 35 17 a pair of cover members 18 and 19, ex-
tended from the sides of the said container and adapted to enclose or cover the open top of the said container. Expansion springs 20 are interposed and secured to the above :i0 mentioned hinges 14, 15, 16 and 17, as a means of normally holding the said covers 18 and 19 in a horizontally extended or closed position. The above described construction is such as will permit the covers 45 18 and 19 to be hinged downwardly, as at 21 and 22 respectively, as a means of permitting toothpicks placed in the said container to be readily removed therefrom, and which will permit the said covers 18 and 19, to be 50 hinged upwardly, as at 23 and 24, respective- .tatively mounted in the ly, as a means of permitting toothpiclrs ,to t
be placed in4 the said container 10.
In Figs. 4 and 5 vof the accompanying drawing, I have shown rodsf'25 andv 26 robrackets 27, 28, .29
and secured tothe ends 11 and 12 of the said container, and extendedlongitudinally thereof, in proximity to the above mentioned hinges 14,15, 16 and 17 respectively. Plate members 31 and `32, rectangular shape are secured at their upperextremities to the rods 25 and 26 respectively, and are extended downwardly therefrom. The pinions 83 and 34 are mounted on the rods 25 and 26 respectively, at or near one extremity thereofh and mesh with the segment gears 35 and 36' respectively, which are provided with extended elements 37 and 88, secured to the above mentioned covers 18 and 19 respectively. The above described construction is such as will permit the plate members 21 and 22 to be pivoted upwardly as designated by t-he reference numerals 39 and 40, when the said covers 18 and 19 are hinged downwardly, as above set forth. The above described construction is such as will permit the plate members 31 and 32 when pivoted upwardly to force the toothpiclrs in the said container 10 to the center of the said container, which will allow the said toothpiclrs to be more readily and easily removed therefrom. v Havingthus describedmy invention what claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States lis as follows 1. A toothpick container ofthe class described embodying a 'container proper provided with a base element, a pair of covers hinged to the said container, said covers adapted to enclose the open top of the said container, and expansion springs as a means of normally holding the said covers in a` closed position.
2. A. toothpiclr container of the class described embodying a container proper pro;A vided with a base element, a pair of covers hingedv to the said container, said covers adapted to enclose the open top of the said container, expansion springs as a means of normally holding the said covers in a closed ico position, plate members operatively connected to the said covers as a means of allowing the toothpicks to be readily removed from the said container.
3. In a safety vtoothpiok container of the class described, plate members secured to rods rotatively mountedI in the said container, pinions secured' to the saidV rods, said pinions adapted to mesh With segment lgears secured to the covers adaptedqto:enclose the open top of the said container.
4. In combination With` asafety Acontainer for toothpieks, vplate members secured vto rods, said rods rotatively mounted in the said containenrpinions secured to the said rods, said pinions adapted to mesh With segment gears secured to thecoversadapted to enclose the open top of the saidV container land springsffor normallyurging the covers into closed `positions for holding the plate niembersin iowered positions.
In testimony whereof I have ,'aiiixed my signature.
