3Claims.

The present invention relates to a method o1' producing an article having a compartment for the reception of accessories and has for its main object and feature the provision of a compartment of adequate depth on such article that can be produced in an expensive and facile manner.

In the accompanying drawings the invention is illustrated in a concrete and preferred form in which Fig. 1 is a plan view of two reinforcing blanks and a lining;

Fig. 2 is a sectional view substantially ony the plane of line 2-2 of Fig. 1;

Fig. 3 is a plan view of a portion of two. iiexible carrier members having closure elements;

Fig. 4 is a sectional view substantially on the plane of line 4-4 oi Fig. 3;

Fig. 5 is a plan view of a forming block used in the process of the invention;

Fig. 6 is a sectional view substantially on the plane of line 8 6 of Fig. 5;

Fig. 7 is an enlarged sectional view showing the method of applying the exible carrier members to the reinforcing blanks;

5 Fig. 8 is an enlarged sectional View showing the method of applying a second lining to the reinforcing members;

Fig. 9 is a plan view of the assembly shown in Fig. 8 looking in the direction of arrow 9 of Fig. 8;

Fig. 10 is a transverse sectional'view of the finished article; and

Fig. 11 is a perspective view of the finished article showing the compartment open.

l5 indicates two reinforcing members of suitable material such as cardboard and I6 is a lining of flexible material such as leather or imi- 'tation leather. This flexible lining is applied to one surface of the two reinforcing blanks, that are in spaced relation, in such a manner as to connect them with a hinge-portion I1 midway of their length at one side. Preferably the lining is attached by means of a film of adhesive or cement I8 applied adjacent the edges of the reinforcing blanks.

Iil indicates two exible carriers having closure elements 2li, here of the familiar slidable zipper type. One of the carriers or tapes I9 is preferably wider than the other and this can conveniently be accomplished by attaching an auxiliary strip 2| as by means ofa line of stitching 22 to one of said tapes, the object of which will presently appear.

23 indicates a forming block of a dimensionv u substantially that of the compartment to be (Cl. 15o-Z8) formed, and this block is here provided with a slot 24 in its sides and with a gage member 25 for the purpose to be indicated.

The partial assembly shown in Figs. 1 and 2 is folded around block 23 with the unlined sur- 5 face of the reinforcing blank outermost, as shown in Fig. 7, hinge portion I1 permitting such action, and carrier tapes I9, with their closed ele-Y ments inv engaged position,`are now applied to the unlined surface ofthe blanks around their ex- 10 posed edges. That is to say, the carrier tapes are applied all around the edges of the blanks except where said blanks are connected by hinge l1. Said carrier tapes can be attached by any suitable means such as an adhesive or cement and a 15 suitable tool may be used to press said carrier tapes to the blanks as will be apparent. In carrying out this step it will be observed that closure elements 20 occupy slot 24 of the block and that gage 25 acts as a straight edge to properly aline the parts. It will further be observed that slot 24 is not located equidistant from opposite sides of lthe block but is oiiset as shown, the reason for this being that it is desired to have the container portion 26 of the compartment deeper than 25 the cover portion 21, and this also explains Why one of the carrier tapes I1 is wider than the other as it is desirable to have substantially the same amount of overlapping of said tapes on the blanks. l

Closure elements 2U are now disengaged and the partial Aassembly is removed from block 24 and straightened out into the open position shown in Fig. 8. A second lining 28 is now applied to the still uncovered surface of reinforcing blanks 35 I5, and said lining forms a hinge portion 29 at the same place that blanks I5 were previously connected. Said lining 28 covers the entire surface of cover portion 21 of the assembly but it is unnecessary to extend it over the entire sur- 40 face of container portion 26. If desired, a line of stitching 30 may be used to connect one of the reinforcing blanks, one of the carrier tapes and the two linings as shown.

'Ihe container portion 26, that is, the portion having the closure elements farthest away from the reinforcing blank, is now applied to a backing member 3|, such as the leather back 0f a brush, and stitched thereto by a line of stitching 32 that runs all around the perimeter of the 50 brush and that extends through lining I6, reinforcing blank |5, lining 28, flexible tape I9 and backing member 3|. f

I claim:

1. The method Vof producing an article having which consists in: applying, to one surface of two reinforcing blanks, a lining of exible material that connects said blanks with a hinge portion midway of their length at one side; applying two flexible carrier members, having closure elements, to the `unlined surfaces of the blanks around their edges which are free of the hinge; applying a lining of iiexible material, that connects said blanks with a hingeportion at the same place that they were previously connected midway of their length, to the other surface of said blanks; and then stitching one-half of the assembly thusv produced to a backing member and with the last named lining abutting said backing.

2. The ,method of producing an article having a compartment for the reception of accessories which consists in: applying, to one surface of two reinforcing blanks, a lining of flexible material that connects said blanks with a hinge portion midway of their length at one. side; bending said lining intermediate the blanks in a direction to cause the lined surface of the two blanks to face each other; applying two flexible carrier members, having closure elements, to the unlined surfaces of the blanks around their edges which are free of the hinge; disengaging the clo- Y sure elements from each other and restoring the aosanss assembly to an open position; applying a lining of flexible material, that connects said blanks with a hinge portion at the same place that they were previously connected midway of their length, to the other surface of said blanks; and then stitching one-half of the assembly thus produced to a backing member and with the last named lining abutting said backing. e.

3.l The method of producing an article having a compartment forthe reception of accessories' midway of their length, to the other surface of said blanks; and then stitching that half of the assembly thus produced which has closure elements farthest away from the reinforcing blank to a backing member and with the last named lining abutting said backing.
