Description
March 7, 1933. w. P. HOLLEY STORAGE BAG Filed March 14, 1931 INVENTOR ATTORNEY Patented Mar. 7, 1933 UNITED STATES WALTER 1. HOLLEY, OF MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA STORAGE BAG Application filed March 14, 1931. Serial No. 522,694.
This invention relates to vermin proof storage receptacles for clothing .and which embodies among other characteristics awindow through which a garment may be viewed without breaking the seals and opening the in additional object of the invention consists of a seal for one end of the bag through which the clothes are passed while suspended upon a han er.
An additlonal object of the invention contemplates the provision and arrangement of a seal for that portion of the clothes hanger projecting without the bag.
More specifically stated the seal for the entrance end of the ba is so arranged that the bag may be adjuste as to len h thereby, in accordance with the lengths o the housed garments and depth measurement of the closet or cabinet within which the hangers are supported.
With the above and other objects in View, the invention further consists of the following novel features and details of construc- 2 tion, to be hereinafter more fully described,
illustrated in the accompanying drawing and pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a front elevation of the present invention.
Figure 2 is a rear elevation' of the present invention showing the seals for the entrance end of the bag and projecting portion of the clothes hanger disposed in position for use.
Figure 3 is a front elevation of the bag showing the seal for the entrance end of the bag employed for the purpose of altering the lenlgth of the bag.
igure 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Figure 1 through the window construction. I
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 55 of Figure 2.
Referring to the drawing in detail wherein like characters of reference denote corresponding parts, the reference character 10 indicates generally a garment bag which may be constructed of fabric, paper or the like and treated or otherwise impregnated with 0 cedar oil, tar or other moth and vermin destroying agents whereby the vermin will be killed bv the very substance eaten while attempting to gain entrance through the bag. The upper edges of the bag are folded together to provide tabs or ears 11 intersecting at their innermost and uppermost ends with the longitudinal center of the bag and between which the supporting hook 12 of a. clothes hanger 13 is projected. The clothes hanger itself will bear against the inclined portions defined by the tabs 11 to prevent the hanger from pulling out of the bag and I to more nearly conform to the shoulder contour of the garments to be housed within the bag. Sealing elements 14, preferably of semi-circular formation, are arranged upon opposite sides and in staggered relation upon thebag in the manner suggested in Figure 1 of the drawing and aflixed thereto through the employment of any suitable form of adhesive. The sealing elements are subsequently lapped over the shoulder portions defined by the tabs 11 and glued in overlapping relation upon the opposite sides of the bag and sealed to the previously aflixed end of said sealing elements whereby the projecting portion of the hook 12 will be sealed with relation to the bag to prevent any possibility of moths and other vermin from entering the bag at the top, and further when the bag is so subjected to strain due to the supporting of a garment therein, themanner of sealing of the sealing elements 14 with the aflixed end thereto guards against the mutilation or tearing of the bag. Again, by sealing the free end of each sealing tab to the afi'ixed end of the opposite sealing tab, the tab can be dislodged or released without mutilating the bag by doing so.
As mentioned in the foregoing and as suggested in Figures 1 to 4 inclusive, it is my purpose to provide a suitable sight opening through which the contents of the bag may be viewed; said sight opening 15 is preferably of oval shape and subdivided by a longitudinal partition 16 to prevent undue buckling, creasing and cracking of theflexible transparent pane which may be constructed of cellophane, glassine or the like. A reinforcing rectangular frame structure 17 is arranged upon the inner side of the bag for abutting engagement with theadjacent side of the pane to prevent the clothes or garments from coming in direct contact with the pane. A transverse partition strip 18, carried by the frame structure 17, is arranged in the rear of and flush with the partition 16 for cooperation therewith in the prevention of damage to the window pane.
The lower or entrance end of the bag carries an adhesive coated sealing strip 19 which is bent upon itself below the edge of the opening and subsequently aflixed to the opposite side of the bag to seal the entire opening after the garments have been arranged within the bag. Tabs or ears 20, carried by and outwardly projecting from the ends of the adhesive strip 19 are then brought around and over the side edges of the bag to seal the ends of the strip 19 whereby the entire bottom or entrance end of the bag will be sealed to prevent entry of moths and other vermin.
In some instances, it may be desirous to arrange the bag in a manner whereby same will not take up as much room as ordinarily intended and in such instances the tabs or ears 20 are secured to the sides of the bag subsequent to the folding of the bag upon itself transversely thereof.
As understood from the foregoing description and illustration of the present invention, it is obviously apparent that garments housed Within the bag will be prevented from vermin destruction and yet permit the user to see at a glance through the Window pane just which garments are stored within the bag without necessitating tearing open several bags to find the desired garment.
The invention is susceptible of various changes in its form, proportions and minor details of construction and the right is herein reserved to make such changes as properly fall within the scope of the appended claim.
Having described the invention, what is claimed is:
A garment bag provided with upper and lower open ends, means for sealing said ends, a sight opening formed in one of the faces of the bag adjacent the open upper end thereof and covered with a transparent pane mounted upon the inner face of the bag and having a centrally located transverse partition, a reinforcing rectangular frame located Within the bag and at the rear of said opening and provided with a transverse partition of a width equaling the width of the first-mentioned partition for preventing the contact of the contents of the bag with the said transparent pane.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
WALTER P. HOLLEY.
