REU'TTER, OF WATEEBURY, CONZDTE.CTICUT,2AS$1'GNOR TO SCOVILL MANU- FACTURING COMPANY, OF W'ATERBURY", -CK JENEfi'ifE-HWJ'1, A CGRPORATION 0F CON NECTICUT SOAP-STICK HOLDER Application filed December 1S, 1927. Serial No. 239,650.
This invention relates to certain improve ments in holders for soap sticks and other like soft cosmetics put up in stick form.
As usually put up, shaving soap sticks or the like are secured in a metal ring or cup in which the soap stick is held by frictional engagement. Certain toilet preparations, as soap, however, are subject to changes 'in dimension after expansion or contraction, so that the metal holders are not always effective in holding the soap. Furthermore, it sometimes happens that the soap stick will vary in size, so that it is diflicult to properly assemble it with its holders, In assembling high grade soaps it has, therefore, been found necessary to mould the soap to the soap stick holder, which is a slow and'expensive procedure.
It is the special object of the present invention to provide a holder for a soap stick in which the stick may be assembled with the holder by the maker or by a user so that it is centered in the holder and is firmly and rigidly held therein.
A further object of the invention is to produce such a device which is simple to make, easy to operate, and of few parts, so that it can be manufactured economically.
With these and other objects not specifically referred to in View, the invention consists in certain novel parts, arrangements and combinations which will be described in connection with the accompanying drawings and the novel features pointed out in the claims hereunto annexed.
In the drawings,
Figure l is a top view, partly broken away, of the improved holder, and
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on the line 22 of Figure 1.
Referring now to these drawings, the holder selected to illustrate the invention is oval or elliptical, but it will be understood that the invention is not to be restricted to this form of soap stick holder, but that various shapes and sizes may be used within the invention. In the construction shown, however, there is provided a holder in the form of a cup, preferably of light metal, having short side walls 1 which are bent to form a flange 2 with which a cover 3 has sliding frictional engagement. The holder or cup also comprises a base at, of slightly larger diameter than the lower part 2 of the side walls,
forming a ledge, indicated at'5, againstwhich V the cover abuts when in position for closing of which are provided with ashoulder 7 and a short upstanding flange 8. This aperture is closed by a plug or fitment 9, by which is carried a means arranged to enter the soap so as to anchor the soap in the holder. While the anchoringmeans may vary widely in construction, the plug is shown as provided with a helical member in the form of a coil spring '10, of wire or other suitable material, having a sharp point 11, this sharp point entering the soap stick, which is indicated at 12, the
coil spring in effect acting as a screw and being forced into the soap stick by the rotation of the plug. The plug isprovided with a flange 13, by which it frictionally engages the flange 8, before referred to, this flange being inset from the edge of the plug so that the plug may seat against the shoulder 7. The plug is thus 'frictiona'lly held in the'base,
but rotary movement thereof is permitted.
Any suitable means may be provided for rotating the plug to insert the coil spring in the soap stick, but a simple and convenient means is by forming the plug with a narrow slot 14, which will receive a suitable tool, such as a coin, by which the plug may be rotated.
It will be seen that with the construction described a very simple way. has been provided for accurately and securely positioning the soap stick in the holder, one which is of few parts and in which the soap stick can be assembled with its holder in a ready and quick manner, either by the maker or by a user who may desire to refill the holder with a new soap stick.
While the invention has been shown and described in its preferred form, it will be understood that various changes may be made in the construction without departing from the invention as defined in the appended claims.
What I claim'is: I
1. In a holder for soap sticks and the like, the combination of a casing, a soap stick holder detachably secured thereto, said holder being formed with a central aperture, and a plug rotatably positioned and frictionally held in the aperture and provided with means adapted to bore into a soap stick on the rotation of the plug for anchoring the soap stick in the holder.
2. In a holder for soap sticks and the like,
the combination of a base forming a holder for a soap stick, said base being formed with a central aperture, a plug rotatably positioned in the aperture and provided with a spring helix adapted. to bore into the soap stick on the rotation of the plug for anchoring the soap stick in the holder.
8. In a holder for soap sticks and the like, the combination of a base forming a holder for a soap stick, said base being formed with a central aperture, a plug rotatably positioned in the aperture, a spring helix secured to the plug and entering the soap stick on the rotation of the plug for anchoring the soap stick in the holder, and a recess in the plug for the reception of a suitable tool for rotating the plug.
4:. In a holder for soap sticks and the like, 7
the combination of a base forming a holder for a soap stick, said base being formed with a central aperture having a shoulder and a holding flange, a plug rotatably positioned in the aperture and seating against the shoulder, said plug having a flange engaging the holding flange, and anchoring means carried by the plug and arranged to enter the soap stick upon the rotation of the plug.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand. I
