CHARLOTTE STANLEY, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN SOAP CONTAINER Application led May G,
This invention relates to improvements in soap containers. lt is an object of the inveu tion to provide a simple and convenient form of soap container that may be carried by a lady in her bag or pocket, ol by a gentleman, so that powdered soap of any desired variety may be available at all times either when travelling, when at work, o about town.
Another object of the invention is to provide a soap container having a grating plate therein, so that a piece of soap may be quickly and easily reduced to substantially powdered form, and also to provide outlet through the container, normally closed by a` closure member, through which powdered soap may be obtained from the container when required.
A further object of the invention is to provide a soap container in an attractive form so that it will be as ornamental as any other toilet article, and so simply constructed that it may be manufactured and sold at a reasonable price.
lVith these and other objects in view the invention, which consists in certain novel construction and combination of parts is hereinafter more fully described with the aid of the accompanying drawings, in which.'
Figure l illustrates a perspective view of the invention with the cover open, and
Figure 2 is a perspective view with the cover shut.
Figure 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig ure 2.
Figure l is a partial vertical section showing a modified form of grating plate.
Referring to the drawings, l designates a container having a cover 2 thereon. The latter is usually mounted on the container by means of hinges 3 which are preferably part-ly secured to a rigid upper portion A integral with the container.
In the container a perforate grating plate 5 is provided which extends substantially over the whole of the inner surface of the container that is exposed when the cover is open. The grating plate may either consist of Wire mesh, as shown in Figures l and 3, the margins of 'which are secured, as by welding to a frame 6 the sides of which lit snugly within the container; or else the grating plate 5 may have 1927. Serial No. 189,252.
holes 7 punched therethrough to present a roughened perforate surface, as shown in Figure 4t, and be integral with the frame 6.
lThe upper margins 8 of the container sides are usually flexed inwardly to provide a bearing surface for the lower margins 2a of the cover 2, and also to receive the frame 6 which extends downwards and rests on the bottom of the container. As shown in Figure 3 the sides of the frame 6 are cut to terminate at one end just beyond the inner end of the cover, and have extensions 6a thereon which bear against one end of the container and hold the grating plate against longitudinal movement. A guide strip 3a secured transversely over the opposed sides of the margins 8 adjacent to the rigid upper portion t of the container may be provided to hold that end of the grating plate from rising when the cover is open.
A suitable fastening means should be provided to hold the cover in closed position shown in Figure l in the form of a projection 9 on an upper margin 8 of the container which takes into a corresponding depression 9"L in one of the margins 2 of the cover 2.
Through one end of the container, or through one of the sides if preferred, an outlet opening l() is provided below the grating plate. This opening is preferably normally covered by a conventional closure member ll which is normally held in closed position by a spring l2.
The cover is opened to fill the container. Filling is accomplished by rubbing a piece of soap a few times across the grating plate Sil whereupon substantially powdered soap falls into the body of the container. lWhen soap is required for use the closure member is opened and a little shaken out into the users hand.
While in the foregoing the preferred construction has been described and shown, it is understood that the invent-ion is susceptible to such modifications as fall within the scope of the appended claims.
lhat I claim is:
l. A soap container having a cover hinged thereon, a removable perforate grating plate in said container, said plate extending over suhstai.. ly the whole surface within said container exposed when said cover is open, projections on the sides of saidv grating plate extending under the upper side of said container, the grating plate sides extending downwards and resting against the underside of said container, said container having an outlet opening therethrough under the perforate portion of said grating plate, and a closure member adapted to cover said openmg.
2. In a soap container, the combination of a casing having an open top, a frame removably carried in the easing and of less length than the casing. a grating member carried by the frame and disposed adjacent the open top of the casing, extensions on the frame bearing against one end of the easing to prevent movement of the frame in the easing, a cover for the open top of the casing, one end of the casing provided with an opening for dispensing4 soap therefrom, and a closure for the openinfr.
3. In a soap container, the combination oi a easing having an impeiforate bottom, three imperforate sides, and an open top, a cover on said top, a grater carried in said casing adjacent to and substantially in a plane with Said open top, said grat-ing being held against movement in said easing, the fourth side of said easing having an opening therethrough for dispensing soap from said casing, a closure member over said opening, and spring means tending to hold said closure shut.
