Description
Patented Feb. 13, 1940 UNITED STATES UMBELLA cARmm Simon I. Goldstein, Baltimore, Md. Application September 30, 1939, Serial No. 291354 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a carrier for closed umbrellas and parasols. The carrier comprises a casing composed of textile fabric of suflicient length to receive the umbrella when folded, the carrier being made a: thin flexible textile material which is foldable into a small space so that it can be carried in a pocket book or hand bag, and when an umbrella becomes wet and the person carrying it wishes to enter a store, street car, or other place Where it would be undesirable to carry an exposed wet umbrella, the carrier can be taken out of the hand bag or pocket book and the umbrella can be readily inserted in the casing, thus preventing the wet umbrella cover from coming in contact with persons orobjects in the immediate vicinity. The carrier is formed with a-flexble handle portion and the upper edges of the carrier are formed so that while the carrier is supported in one hand it can be readily opened to receive the umbrella held in 'the other hand of the person using the carrer.
In the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is a side View of the umbrella carrier; i Fig. 2 is a similar View of the body of the carrier before being folded;
Fig. 3 is a vertical section through the carrier on the line 3--3 of Fig. 1, partly broken away;
Fig. 4 is a transverse section on the line 4--4 of Fg. 1, partly broken away, and
Fig. 5 is a section similar to that shown in Fig. 4, illustrating the body of a carrier made from two separate parts.
Referring to the drawing A, Figure 1, represents the complete carrier, the body of which is composed of thin flexible material cut to form two parallel tapering sides or panels a and a', to which a binding is applied as hereinafter described. Preferably the sides or panels of the body are formed from a single strip of fabric shaped as shown in Fig. 2, this strip tapering from top to bottom and being foldable along its longitudnal center, indicated by the dotted line l. The lower end of the strip is preferably cut oli at a right angle to its longitudinal center, and a b-inding E is stitched to the lower end and extends the full Width of the strip.` The upper and wider end of the strip slants with respect to a line l. passing through its longitudinal center, and a flexible binder 3 is stitched to this slantng end and extends the full width of the strip. While stitching the binding piece 3 to the strip, an identifying tag b, having one edge in- (CI. 135-33) a i a' of the strip which is at the"left of the center line in Fig. 2. In completing the carrier, the part a of the strip is folded along the central line l against the part a'. The fold is shown at 4 in Fig. 4. The side edges 5 and 6 then 'lie par-` 5 allel with one'another, as'shown in said figure and the upper edge of thepart a of the strip,` having the part sa of the binder thereon, slants downwardly, while the upper edge of the part a' of the strip, having the part 3b of the binder, 10 slants upwardly from the folded edge of the body.
A long flexible binder 1 is then applied to the lateral edges of the folded panels and stitched thereto, as shown in Figs. 1 and` 4, and the lower ends of the panels are stitched together through 5 the folded binder 2, as shown in Fig. 3, thus completing the carrier. The binder 'I extends the full length of the body at both edges and the central portion of this binder extends above the body l portion of the carrier and forms a flexible handle 20 la by which the carrier can be supported. It is to be noted that in the'completed carrier the upper edge of the panel a' of the body slants upwardly, and the upper edge of the panel af slants downwardly from the side of the carrier which is creased along the line I, Thus, the portion of the panel a' which bears the identification tag b is exposed to view above the panel a'. w
The main purpose of having the upper edges of the panelsof the carrier slant oppositely isto facilitate the opening of the carrier when an umbrella is to be inserted in the carrier. Thus, a person holding the carrier in one hand by its fiexible handle portion may, with the fingers of` that hand, move the upper end portion of the panel a' away from the upper end of the panel a sufi'iciently to permit the person to insert the end of an umbrella stick into the upper end por:- tion of the carrier with the other hand, and then by pressing the umbrella stick downwardly with short turning movements the loose folds of the umbrella cover will be wrapped around 'the stick by reason of frictional contact of the cover with the fabric of the carrier, and thus the umbrella can be inserted in the carrier by means of one hand while the carrier is supported by the other hand. The carrier, made of thin fiexible fabric, preferably waterprooied,` will keep the wet umbrella cover out of contact with nearby personsor objects. Being of thin material and flexible, when r :so
.the carrier is not in use, it can be folded into small space and carried in a pocketbook or hand bag, ready for use when the occasion arises. The carrier is intended particularly for use with umbrellas having short handle portions which will not project beyond its handle portion when the umbrella is in the carrier.
Insteadof making the body of the carrier-from a single folded fabric strip as above described, I may cut the strip along the dotted line I, Figure 2, forming two` separate panels a and a as indicated in the modification, Figur-e 5, these panels corresponding to the panels a and a', respectively, in the other figures of the drawing, and being seWed together at their edges by stitches passing through the binding 1.
What I claim is:
1; An umbrella carrier comprising a body por tion consisting of two relatively long tapering panels of thin fiexible fabric arranged face. to face; fiexible bindings extending along the upper and lower edges of said panels, the 'lower'edges of said panels being stitched together, andthe upper edges of said panels inclining oppositely from one lateral edge of the carrier to the other lateral edge and a binding extendingalong the lateral edges of said carrier from its lower to` its upper end, the central portion of said binder forming a looped handle beyond the upper end of the carrier body.
2. An umbrella carrier comprising a body portion consisting of two relatively long tapering panels of thin fiexible fabric arranged face to face, fiexible bindings extending along the upper and lower edges of said panels, the lower edges of said panels being stitched together, and the upper .edges of said panels inclining oppositely from one lateral edge of the carrier to the other lateral edge, leaving a portion of the inner side of one panel exposed to View, and a binding extending along the lateral edges of said carrier from its lower to its upper end, the central portion-of; said binder forming a looped handle beyond the upperend of the carrier body, and an identification tag Secured to the inner side of one of said panels at its aforesaid exposed portion.
