GARMENT BAG Filed Dec. 23, 1930 2. Sheets-Sheet 2 I gwwnl om Patented Sept. 8, 1931 UNITED s'rares JAMES DUVALL, F CAMAS, WASHINGTON GARMENT BAG Application filed December 23, 1930. Serial No. 504,257.
My invention relates to that type of paper commonly known as garment bag, comprising a tubular body closed at the top and open at the bottom and adapted to be drawn over a garment hanging upon an ordinary clothes h anger, so as to protect the garment from dust; an opening being provided in the middle of the upper end of the garment bag through which to project the hook of the clothes hanger, so that the garment may be conveniently hung up. The garment bag may also be provided with closure means at the bottom to protect the garment against moths.
These garment bags, as heretofore constructed, have not however, provided transverse space to accommodate the shoulders of the garment. Instead the garment bag, when drawn over the garment, was so firmly as drawn over the shoulders of the garment as to tend to compress unduly and wrinkle the shoulders of the garment; also make it more or less difiicult to pull the garment bag off,
because of the shoulder sections of the gar- 255 ment bag by their compression of the shoulders of the garment exerting such a firm frictional hold on the latter.
Therefore the object of my invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive garment bag of the character described so constructed as to eliminate the objectional features above mentioned.
An incidental further object of my invention is to provide such a garment bag adapted to be economically manufactured without increase in cost over the old type of garment bag.
I attain my objects in a garment bag comprising a tubular body, the opposite lateral wall portions of one end of which are overlapped and arranged and secured to form relatively rigid angular shoulder sections when the bag is opened, said angular sections adapted to constitute transverse spacing elements spacing the opposite wall portions of the shoulders of the bag body apart.
These and other incidental objects of my invention, and its details of construction, are hereinafter fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of my garment bag and illustrates how the shoulder portions are spaced apart to accommodate the shoulders of the garment contained therem;
Fig. 2 shows a fragmentary front elevation of my bag, partly in section, and illustrates a garment inclosed therein; 7
Fig. 3 shows a transverse section taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and further illus trates how the shoulder of a garment is accommodated within the shoulder portions of my garment bag;
Fig. l shows a bag tube from which my garment bag is formed; and
Figs. 5 to 8, inclusive. show successive steps in the forming of the shoulder portions of mygarment bag.
Referring now to the drawings: a represents a bag tube of kraft paper or the like adapted to serve as an envelope or cover for a garment. The bag tube a is folded flatwise and the uppercorners b are creased diagonally at oblique angles with the end of the bag tube, on lines 0, see Fig. 4. The corners Z) are then opened or spread out as at 0, shown in Figs. 5 and 6 and pressed against the body of the bag tube in the plane of the latter, Fig.7, forming diamond. shaped portions The opposite lateral corners g, h of the portions f are folded inward, one over the other as shown in Fig. 8 and secured together by cement or other suitable means, thus forming rigid angular shoulder sections adapted, when the bag is opened, to receive a garment, to constitute transverse spacing elements, see Fig. 3, functioning to prevent the opposite wall portions of the bag tube when arranged over a garment from being drawn too closely over the shoulders and causing them to wrinkle.
Further, an opening is is formed in the upper end of the bag tube between the ends of the creases 0, through which the hook i of the clothes hanger 3' upon which the garment is hung may extend so as to permit the gar ment when in the bag, to be hung on a hook as illustrated in Fig. 1.
Further, when the shoulder portions 6 are expanded by the shoulders of the garment,
.WlllCll are overlapped and arran d they will slope to conform to the slope of the shoulder, see Fig. 2, thus accommodating garments of various shoulder widths so as not to bind. the ends of the shoulders and possibly cause wrinkles at these places.
I claim:
1. In a garment bag, a tubular body, the opposite lateral wall portions of one end of which are overlapped and arranged and secured to form relatively rigid angular shoulder sections when the bag is opened, said angular sections adapted to constitute transverse spacing elements spacing the opposite wall portions of the shoulders of the b ag body apart. whereby to prevent said shoulder wall portions being drawn too firmly over the shoulders of a garment.
2. In a garment bag, a tubular body the opposite lateral Wall portions of one end of e and cemented to form relatively rigid angular shoulder sections when the bag is opened. said angular sections adapted to constitute transverse spacing elements spacing the opposite wall portions of the shoulders of the bag body apart, whereby to prevent said shoulder wall portions being drawn too firmly over the shoulders of a garment.
3. In a garment bag. a tubular body. the
opposite lateral wall portions of one end of which are overlapped and arranged and secured to form relatively rigid diamond shaped shoulder sections when the bag is opened, the transverse middle portions of 1 said diamond shaped sections functioning to space the opposite shoulder wall portions of the bag body apart. whereby to prevent said shoulder wall portions being drawn too firmly over the shoulders of a garment.
4. In a garment bag, a tubular body the opposite lateral wall portions of one end of which are folded. spread out, respectively, on opposite sides of a line making an oblique angle with the line touched by said end, and the lateral portions of said spread out folded portions being folded and overlapped on converging lines to form the shoulder portions of the bag body. the said folded and overlapped portions being connected in place, whereby to form relatively rigid angular shoulder sections, adapted to constitute transverse spacing elements functioning to prevent the opposite wall portions constituting the shoulders of the bag body from being drawn too firmly over the shoulders of a garment.
