ALEXANDER M. LEVINO, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN POCKET-BOOKS.
Specification formingpart of Letters Patent No. 175,718, dated April 4, 1876; application tiled February 1l, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALEXANDER M. LE- VINO, of the city, county, and State of NenT York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Pocket-Books and similar Articles, which improvement is fully set forth in i the following specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which-- Figure l represents a front View of my i11- vention. Fig. 2 is a cross-section thereof when shut. Fig. 3 is a like section of the same when open.
' Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
My invention rela-tes to certain improvements in pocket-books and other similar articles, and has for its object to furnish a cheap, simple, and effective device for closing such articles, and one containing no springs or other paraphernalia which are liable to get out of order.
The invention consists in providing` the pocket-book or other article with a projecting front side or cover, to receive the closing pocket, by means of which the proper adjustment of the pocket is facilitated and its accidental displacement prevented.
In the drawing, the letter A designates a pocket-book of ordinary form, to which I have, in this example, shown my invention applied; and B is the closing` pocket. This pocket B is arranged to take the tlap hitherto coimnonly used for closing pocket-books and other similar' articles, with the exception, however, that no supplemental device is required for retaining the pocket B in its position on the pocket-book.
This closing pocket B forms an integral part of the pocket-book, and is connected at one of its edges to the rear side or cover, as seen in Figs. 2 and 3, or it may be made in one piece With such cover, the first-named mode of connection being preferred on account ot' the greater-freedom of movement thus given to the pocket. Itis obvious that when the pocket B is so adjusted as to envelop the opening ofthe pocket-book A, as shown in Fig. 2, the latter is rmly held shut, While by the elastic na ture of the pocket-book the closing pocket can be readily adjusted in its place or removed, as shown in Fi'g.,3, for the purpose of gaining access to the interior part ofthe book. In order to prevent the pocketbook being accidentally opened, the front cover of the same is elongated or extended above the pockets of the pocket-book, as seen at C, Figs. 2 and 3. By this arrangement the pocket B, when adjusted to its closing position, is received by the projecting cover 0,011 or from which it can be drawn With extreme facility, while at the same time the pocket is not liable to become displaced by accident. The edge ofthe projecting cover G is preferably curved,
and a correspondingly curved outline given to the pocket B, in order to still further facilitate the adjustment of the pocket.
lf desired, the pocket B may have a projecting part, D, by which it can be conveniently grasped in its removal from the pocket-book. The closing pocket B is lapplicable not only to pocket-books, but also to cigar-cases, cardcases, bill-books, and a variety of other arti- ALEX. M. LEVINO.
