RECEPTACLE HOLDER Filed Aug. 4, 1956 Patented Dec. 14, 1937 UNITED STATES- PATENT OFFICE 3 Claims.
My invention relates to the class of devices which are employed for temporarily enclosing receptacles of various sorts suchas cleaning powder boxes or cans and the like commonly used in a 6 kitchen, and an object of my invention, among others, is the production of a holder which shall enclose and obscure the receptacle from view and one in which the receptacle may be readily placed and secured and which may be readily and conveniently removed therefrom.
One form of a holder embodying my invention and in the construction and use of which the objects herein set out, as well as others, may be attained is illustrated in the accompanying drawmg in which- Figure 1 is an isometric perspective viewof my improved receptacle holder.
Figure 2 is a view in lengthwise section through the same.
Figure 3 is a view in cross section on a plane denoted by the dotted line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
In well-regulated kitchens at the present time it is the desire of a tidy housewife, while having conveniently accessible receptacles for cleaning powders and the like, yet, to have such receptacles where they are not in full view. My improved holder illustrated and described herein provides such means which may be readily placed in any desired location and in the use ofwhich receptacles may be readily enclosed and as readily removed for use. As shown in the drawing this holder comprises a case 5 which may be square, round, or of any desired shape in cross section and of a size a little larger than the receptacle 6 which is to be enclosed therein, such receptacle commonly comprising a box of scouring material which is dusted from perforations in one end of the box. As one means for readily securing the holder in place I affix a retaining strip 1 to the back of the holder, this retaining strip being of fabric or any other suitable material supplied with an adhesive which on being moistened will readily adhere to a wall, post, or other support 8.
This holder is supported in an up-side-down position, that is, with the open end opening downwardly, the opposite end 9 being closed. A lip I0 is backwardly inturned at the lower edge of the holder, this lip preferably being formed by creating cuts in the bottom edge of the holder and then turning the material between such cuts inwardly and upwardly as shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing providing a space between the lip and the wall of the holder.- Many of the receptacles employed at the present time for containing clean- .55 ing material and the like have a. chime II at the bottom end thereof, and this projecting downwardly into the space between the lip and the wall of the holder affords a convenient means for securely retaining the receptacle in place in the holder, such chime resting in the hook provided 5 by the lip l0 and avoiding displacement by reason of jarring or the like. However, it will be appreciated that other forms of the end of the receptacle may be accommodated, the lip being constructed to properly engage and support such a 10 receptacle. I
The holder is preferably a little larger in cross sectional dimensions than the receptacle so that the latter may have a lateral movement within the holder. 15
In action the receptacle is pushed upwardly into the open lower end of the holder and when it is fully inserted its lower end is moved to one side to engage the chime on the bottom thereof with the lip ill, the latter securely retaining the 20 receptacle in place. To remove the receptacle the fingers are inserted into the open end of the holder, the receptacle is lifted and shifted to one side when by the action of gravity it will follow the fingers downwardly until it is removed from 25 the holder.
It will be readily appreciated that this holder may be decorated or painted in any fanciful manner to provide an article which may be an ornament as well as a holder, and the various 30 sorts of containers or receptacles will be completely enclosed and hidden from view.
In accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes I have described the principles of operation of my invention, together with the device 35 which I now consider to represent the best embodiment thereof; but I desire to have it understood that the device shown is only illustrative and that the invention may be carried out by other means and applied to uses other than those 0 above set out.
I claim:
1. A receptacle holder comprising a case having an open lower end, and a retaining finger projecting inwardly and upwardly at the lower open 4 end of the case at adistance from the wall of said case to provide a space to receive a receptacle inserted'through said lower open end and shifted laterally to engage said finger.
2. A receptacle holder comprising a case having 50 an open lower end, and a retaining finger bent inwardly and upwardly to form a hook spaced from the wall of the holder to receive the chime of a receptacle within said space to obstruct lateral sliding movement of said receptacle which is inserted in such lower end and then shifted laterally to engage its chime with said hook.
3. A receptacle holder comprising a case closed at one end and open at its lower end, a strip of adhesive'material attached to one side of the case as a means for securing the receptacle in place, and a retaining finger bent inwardly and upwardly from the lower edge of the case and spaced from the wall thereof to receive in said space the chime of a receptacle inserted through said open lower end and then shifted laterally to engage said finger.
