IMPROVEMENT IN TOY CIGAR-CASES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 190,528, dated May 8, 1877; application filed March 24, 1877.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANZ WALDSCHMIT'I, of New York city, New York, have invented a new and Improved Toy Cigar'Gase, of which the following is a specification:
Figure l is a longitudinal section of myimproved toy cigar-case, showing the toy part opened. Fig. 2 is a similar section thereof, showing it closed. Fig. 3 is a cross-section on the line c c, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate correspending parts in all the iigures.
This invention relates to a new pocket cigar-case, which is open at both ends, and contains near one end a false bottom, over which a sort of jack-in-thebox is placed, the main body of the case serving as a receptacle for cigars. rIoy cases inimitation of cigar-cases, and provided with a similar jack-in-the-box, have been used previous to my invention 5 but they were not adapted to receive cigars, and, therefore, mere playthings, whereas mine is a real cigar-case, combined with the toy, to serve both a useful purpose and as a means of amusement..
In the drawing, the letterA represents the body or shell of the cigar-case. The same is made of leather or other suitable material, of convenient or suitable size and shape. This case is open at both ends, and provided with a lid or cover, B, for closing one end, a, and another lid or cover, C, for closing the other end b. D is a false bottom, secured across the case A, nearer the end a, leaving` a large chamber, d, between said false bottom and the end b, for the reception of cigars, as clearly shown in Fig. 2. rI"nesecigars can be reached by opening' the cover C.
The false bottom supports two short pillars, e e, which project toward the end a ofthe case, and on which a plate, f, is arranged to slide up and down. A spring or springs, g, on the pillars serve to raise the slide f against shoulders h, which are formed at or near the upper ends of the pillars. The slide f has a downwardly-projecting catch or hook, c', which, when the slide is moved toward the false bottom, is caught by a spring,E,thatis attached to the said false bottom. A part, j, ot' the spring E is in close contact with the body A 0f the cigar-case, as indicated in Fig. 3, so that by pressing the case at this point the spring will be moved to disengage the hook fi, and allow the springs g to throw the slide fagain'st the shoulders h, as in Fig. 1; but when, afterward, the slide is pushed toward the false bottom, the spring E will spou taneonsly take into the catchz and hold the slide, as in Fig. 2. A toy figure, F, head or the like, is secured upon the slidefto constitute the jackinthe-b0x, which appears when the end cof the case is opened, and the case then pressed in manner stated, to release the catch. In addition to this figure, I propose to luse a false lid, G, to close the end a of the case. this lid having short pieces of cigars l l glued or otherwise secured thereto. The jack-inthe-box, when it springs out, will throw oft this false lid and appear to view, the false lid being, by a cord, m, or otherwise, secured to the case A.
I do not claim auythingin the mechanism whereby the jack-in-the-box is moved or secured, nor in the false lid G, as substantially the same arrangement has been used in toy cases that were made in imitation of cigar-` cases, but that had no capacity for holding cigars; but
I do claim- 'lhe cigar-case A, open at both ends, and
F. WALDSCHMIT'I.
