This invention relates to improvements in cosmetic compacts and more particularly toa compact which is provided with moistening elements. 7
The invention specifically is an improvement over the invention embodied in the copend-ing United States application No. 586,018 filed January. 11, 1932, in the names of the same applicants herein. 7
A broad object of the present invention is provision ofa compact provided with a new and novel casing for a moistening element.
Another object of the inventionis provision of means for the withdrawal of the said casing from the compact, the said withdrawal being necessitated whenever it is desired to saturate the said moistening element with water. a p
Another object of the invention is provi sion of a compact having a construction conducive to the removable structure of the aforesaid moistening "element casing. v
These obj ectsand other incidental features of the invention will be brought outlin the following disclosure and in the accompanying drawing forming a part hereof and wherein like reference characters represent corresponding parts throughout the several views. Moreover, the general structure of the compact cooperating with the subject matter of the present invention will be set forth merely as a reiteration of the specification embodied in the copending application serially numbered 586,013, as above said.
Referringto the drawing, Figure 1 is a V view in perspective showing a preferred form of a compact in open and operative position,
casing 7 the subject matter ofthis invention,
being shown in perspective and in cooperation 90 7 but, as shownin Figure 1, constitutes merely V 3,001111111110113 and inward extension of the uptherewith; I
Figure 2 is a plan view of thelowerpor-tion of the compact shown in Figure 1;.
Figure 3 is a. longitudinal cross-sectional .view .throughthe line 3-3015 Figure 2. In accordance with the invention, the compact comprises an upper portion 1 pivotally connected at 16 to the lower portion 2, the
side walls of the said portions being preferably perpendicular to the upper and lower faces of the said twoportions. 1 and 200m- ;oo'sMErIo coMrAcr 1932. Serial No. 598,742.
prise the compact case proper, the sidewalls of the same ofieringsuflicient height'for the reception and enclosure of the elements hereinafter to be described. 17 represents a spring catch which is the usu'al mechanism employed in the opening andclosin of com' pact cases ofthe variety shown in igure 1 of. the accompanying .drawing, it being deemed unnecessary to show thecooperatmg notch with spring 17 on the front wall of the 9 upper portion 1 of the compact case. "3 represents a flat mirror which is affixed in [any .known fashion to the innerfface of upper portion 1 and is used forthe usual purposes.
, The, compact case thus far described is .prefit being undererably rectangular in shape, stood that the shape ofthe compact case is not of the essence of. the invention. The external portions of the compacticase may be enameled, ngraved, or otherwise decorated for the usual'aesthetic reasons.
4 represents an intermediate base plate engaging the. side, walls of lower portion2 at the peripheral edges thereof, as shown in Figure 3. Intermediate base plated consequently is in spaced relation with respect to the upper face of lower portion 2 of the compact case.- 5 represents a caslng for any cosmetic cake mater1al,such as mascara, which said material requires for application a moistened 8 brush. .Casing 5 is adapted torest on the upper face of lower portion2 byspenetrating intermediate base plate 4 through an opening conforming to the peripheral shape ofcasing 5. Casing 5 preferably comprises a continuous side wall, the shape of the said casing being of any desired form but preferably rectangular. The upper. edge of easing 5 is turned in at any desired curvature or flange per edge. 6 represents a cake of mascara, whloh 1s encased 1n casing 5, andwhlch is removable when worn down for replenishing 9 I sponge 9.
t'ermediate bearing tinuous side walls, as shown in Figure 1. The opening 8 is preferably in the form of a dlagonal slot and permits exposure of the upper face of sponge 9. Holder 7 is supported through an opening in intermediate base plate 4 conformingtothe desired peripheral shape of holder 7. The said holder or casing 7 is held in position by frictional engagement with the turned-down portions'of the periphcry of intermediate base plate 4 at the above said opening. It is seen by a reference to Figure 3 that casing 7 is permitted to engage with the opening in intermediate base plate 4 to the extent of penetrating the upper face of lower portion 2 through the agency of. lower cup portion 25, aswill hereinafter be set forth.
3 25 represents a cup port-ion adapted to hold Saidcup portion 25 with sponge 9 attached thereto isconstructed to fit into the interior from the bottom of casing 7 in a manner such that the upper face of sponge 9 becomes exposed through the diagonal slot 8 of easing 7 Intermediate base plate 4 is provided with a narrow slot 26 at a distance from 1thereceptacl-e for casing 7 ,the said slot 26 engaging levers'22 and 23 by means of an mportion 24. Lever 23 is adapted to rest on the surface of the upper face of lower portion 2 within the space allotted for the bottom portion of" easing 7, as best shown by a reference to Figure 3.
Lever 22 projects from intermediate base plate. 4 from bearing 24. It is seen that by bearingpressure onthe upper face of lever 22, lever 23 is caused to ascend and thus raise therewith the whole of casing 7, it being remembered that the amount of pressure necessary to be borne on lever 22 depending upon the frictional engagement between the side walls of casing 7 and the'turned-in portions of intermediate base plate 4. Levers 22 and 23 may be made of one piece of metal offset intermediate the ends of the levers and thus afford the intermediate or fulcruming portion 24. It is thus seen that levers 22 and 23 operate to furnish an ejector for casing 7 whenever it is desired to saturate sponge 9 contained therein. We wish it understood at this point that the invention of this application resides-in the structure of a casing for a moistening element togetherwith an ejector therefor in cooperation with the rest of the description herein contained. v Casing Sand holder 7 are arranged pref- 'erablyin'longitudinal alignment and adjacent 'to the rear and side walls of lower portion 2 forspace conservation, all as preferably represented in Figurel of the accompanying drawing. r
10 represents the handle of the application brush comprising head 11 and bristles 12. 13 is a casing for the upper portion of the application brush, thesaid casing comprising a front wall 14, an end and outer wall 20 and upper and lower walls 21. 15 is a tongue ciation with casing 13 ing supply of moisture for the application brush base plate 4 in a'transverse slit, said tongue 2 member being adapted to give casing 13 vertical movement so that handle 10 of the application brush is normally at an acute angle with respect to intermediate base plate 4. The purpose of tongue member 15 in assois toward offering easy insertion and removal of the application brush, as becomes apparent from reference to Figure 1. Casing 13 "is preferably positioned adjacent to the front and outer walls of lower portion 2 for space conservation. The views herein omit 15.
The compact itself may be made of any metallic or nonmetallic material, the same being true for easing 5, casing or holder7, casing 13 and intermediate base plate 4; but in the present embodiment of the invention metal has been chosen. Respecting the relative placement of the several parts-10f the structure, the present embodiment is aimed toward compactness and facility of use; and for such reason elements 5, 7 and 13 have been positioned, asrepresented' in the accompanying drawing.
The present invention proper comprises in cooperation with a compact case of the type described an easily removable and insertable casing for a moistening element. To those versed in the art, it is known that the application of mascara for best results requires a brush that necessarily must be moistened; the source for such moistening being in casing 7 of the compact case described.
The present structure of a compact case has an advantage over others inthat the same is provided with a moistener which eliminates the necessity and the need for proximity to a source of water supply where the cosmetic material, such as mascara, requires water for its application. The user of the present structure need butsaturate sponge so that there will be at least one days in conjunction with the mascara or other material requiring the use of water for its application.
I wish it understood that minor changes and variations in the structure, location, size, and shape of the various parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit 9 each morn-' of'the invention nor departing from the scope of the appended claims.
We claim:
1. In combination with a compact case having an intermediate base plate as described, a casing for a moistening element or sponge adapted to engage with an opening in the said intermediate base plate, and means to raise the said casing.
2. In combination with a compact case hav-. ing an intermediate base plate as described, a casing for amoistening element or sponge and having an opening in the upper face thereof, the said casing restin on the bottom of the compact case and ed in place by an opening in the intermediate base plate,
and means to raise the said casing.
3. In combination with a compact case having an intermediate base plate as described, a casing for a moistening element or sponge and having an opening in the upper face thereof, the said casing resting on the bottom of the compact case and fixed in place by an opening in the intermediate base plate, an external actuating lever and an actuated lever situated beneath the said casing to raise the same for removal purposes.
4. In combination with a compact case having an intermediate base plate as described, a casing for a moistening element or sponge and having an opening in the upper face thereof, the said casing resting on the bottom of the compact case and fixed in place by an opening in the intermediate base plate, and levers adapted to raise the said casing for removal purposes.
