Claims.

This invention relates to sachet powder containers and in particular to such containers as may be used in a pendent position,

Among ,the objects of my invention is the i provision of a construction in a sachet powder container which will be effective and convenient for use whether such use be in a pendent or recumbent position, and coordinately therewith the provision of such a container of at- I tractive. form, and further, the provision of means for retaining the form of said container without interfering with its effectiveness.

For the attainment of the above enumerated objects, and other objects as will hereinafter api pear or be pointed out, I have illustrated my invention in the drawing, in which:

Figure 1 is a side elevation of my invention;

Figure 2 is a sectionalcview thereof on the line 2-2 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the l arrows; and

Figure 3 is a developed view showing in detail the construction of the outer form retaining envelope.

While my invention has been shown by way of illustration in one embodiment thereof, it is to be understood that it may be embodied in many other forms and that the disclosure herein is not intended to be limitative in any way but to be by way of illustration merely, and that my invention is to be interpreted as limited only as defined in the appended claims.

Referring now to the drawing in detail it will be observed that my sachet powder container is in the shape of an ornamental tassel comprising a body portion A, a head portion B, and a tassel portion C, and having means 14 at one end thereof whereby it may be hung up in a pendent position.

The body portion A has a nucleus formed by the bag 10 which is made of porous fabric that will have suflicient strength and closeness of texture to retain the sachet powder D therewithin, and will yet be porous enough to permit dif fusion of the fragrance of the powder therethrough. Surrounding the nucleus of the body portion A is a covering of stranded fibrous material and Ihave shown this as in the form of a hank 12 of any suitable or preferred fibrous material having the characteristics of permitting diffusion of the fragrance of the sachet powder therethrough, and also having an attractive appearance. I have found rayon a material well suited for this purpose. .7

In forming this outer covering the hank 12 is threaded through a ring 14, and then doubled over the ring,,. so that the ring is positioned at its mid-portion or bight portion. This doubling over of the hank results in a tassel-like con-- formation. .The bag 10 containing sachet powder is now disposed within the inner medialportion of the tassel thus formed, so as to form the body A,- and so that the bight portion of the tassel forms the head B, while the opposite free ends form and tasselated portion C. My construction is now completed by applying the constricting

neck portions

16 and 18 which serve respectively to separate the head B and the tassel C, the body portion A and the form retaining envelope 19. I

It will be observed that the stranded, flexible covering constituted by the hank is held in place between the inner bag and the outer envelope and is thereby caused in effect to become rigid and to retain its shape, whereas otherwise it would be subject to all manner of displacement.

The

neck portions

16 and 18 are conveniently formed by wrapping thereabout any preferred or suitable material, such as thread, braid or wire, selected with a view to efiicient binding action and appearance. The ends thereof may be secured in any suitable well-known manner, as for example, by tucking them under overlying portions of the Wrapping.

Figure 3 shows the details of one manner of applying the envelope 19. A coil or loop 20 is first run aroundthe body A

adjacent neck

16 or 18, and a series of rows of meshes are then formed. As indicated in Figure 3 a continuous thread of which coil 20 forms the terminal portion may be used. After the completion of coil 20 the thread is led around the coil in a loop 21 so as to form the first mesh, held in place by

loops

21 and 22; A complete ring of meshes is formed in this manner, each suspended by loops from the coil 20, and the last loop of this first ring is shown at 24. A second ring of meshes is now formed by interlooping them with the first ring, of which the initial loop is 26 and the terminal loop is 28. This process is continued and the whole finished by a terminal coil 30 which serves to fix the whole network, and which 'may have its end secured by tucking it under portions of the envelope or of the hank.

It will thus be seen that I have provided a' highly convenient and efficient construction having an attractive appearance and which may, if desired, be suspended in a pendent position. It is hardly necessary to point out the many uses thereof in detail, as those that are not obvious will readily suggest themselves to users of such devices.

Having thus described my invention and illustrated its use what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is said hank being positioned on one side of the bag and the tasselated end of the hank being positioned on the other side of said bag.

2. A sachet powder container having an inner receptacle adapted to hold sachet powder, an outer covering for said bag, said covering being formed from a hank of fibrous material doubled over at its mid portion and positioned so that arr intermediate portion thereof surrounds said bag on all sides thereof, the bight portion of said hank being positioned on one side of the bag and the tasselated end of the hank being positioned on the other side of said bag and supporting means associated with said hank at its bight portion, whereby the container may be suspended in a pendent position.

3. In a sachet powder containergan inner bag of porousfabric adapted to hold sachet powder and to permit diffusion of its fragrance therethrough, a cover for said bag, said cover being constituted by a hank of stranded material doubled over at its mid point and positioned so as to surround said bag on all sides thereof, and having the free ends of the strands projecting beyond the bag to produce a tasselated effect.

4. In a sachet powder container, an inner bag of porous fabric adapted to hold sachet powder and to permit diffusion of its fragrance therethrough, a-cover for said bag, -said cover being constituted by a hank of stranded material doubled over at its mid point and positioned so as to surround said bag on all sides thereof,and having the free ends of the strands projecting beyond the bag to produce a tasselated effect, and means associated with said hank whereby the same may be suspended.

5. The sachet powder container as in claim 1 having an outer reticulated form-retaining envelope surrounding said outer cover, and constrictingmembers separating the mid portion of the hank from the bight portion and from the tasselated portion.

6. The sachet powder container as in claim 1 having an outer reticulated form-retaining envelope surrounding said outer cover, and constricting members separating the mid portion of the hank from the bight portion and from the tasselated portion, and supporting means associated, with said hank at its bight portion, whereby the container may be suspended in a pendent position.

'1. In a sachet bag an inner container of porous fabric adapted to hold sachet powder, a stranded covering surrounding said porous fabric and a reticulated retaining envelope adapted to hold said stranded covering against the bag and thereby cause said covering to retain its shape.

8. In a sachet bag an inner container adapted to hold sachet powder, a stranded covering surrounding said porous fabric and a retaining envelope adapted to hold said strandedcovering against the bag and thereby cause said covering to retain its shape. v

9. In a sachet bag an inner container of porous fabric adapted to hold sachet powder, a

stranded covering surrounding said porous fabric,

a reticulated retaining envelope adapted to hold said stranded covering against the bag and thereby cause it to retain its shape, and constricting bands positioned at the ends of the envelope and cooperating therewith to cause said bag to retain its shape. 1 10. A sachet powder container having an inne bag adapted to holdthe sachet powder, a covering for said bag, said covering being formed of a hank of stranded material doubled over at itsv mid point so as to form a bight and positioned so as to surround such bag at all sides thereof and so that it projects beyond said bag on both sides thereof, the bight portion of said hank being positioned on one side of the bagand the free ends of the strands of the hank being positioned on the other side of said bag.
