Figure 1 is a perspective view of our shawlstrap and valise when packed, rolled up, and secured for traveling. Fig. 2 is an outside view, and Fig. 3 an inside view, of the same when unrolled. Fig. 4 isa detail.
A is the inner facing or lining, made of any suitable strong flexible material.
B are slats of wood or other material, glued or otherwise fastened to the outer face of the lining and arranged in parallel lines at close intervals apart, forming a covering and backing to the lining. The slats are further secured by leather straps G, which are tacked to each slat, and bind them alltogether. The end slat, to which the handle'D and fastening devices are attached, is cased with a sheetmetal covering, which, while forming a strong means of connection for these parts, adds greatly to the neatness and finish of the valise.
E E are the end curtains, extending outwardly from the sides of the valise when unrolled, and so arranged that they may be drawn together by the cord and tasselsE to close the ends of the valise when rolled up.
F is a pocket, and GG G straps attached to the lining A for the reception of articles of clothing and the toilet. These parts may be arranged as desired, and may be increased or decreased in size and number if preferred.
The valise-fastening consists of th ree double hooks,H, provided with angularend projections a, which hooks are attached to the loose ends of the straps, and are adapted to en gage with the edge of any one of the slats and be retained by the elasticity of the valise after compression. We do not, however, confine ourselvesto fastenin gs of this description, as other form may be used.
The inner lining and curtains of the valise should preferably be made of a water-proof material to protect the contents of the valise, and we prefer to varnish the wooden slats and plate the metallic fittings to insure durability and neatnessand beauty of finish.
' The advantages ofouriuventiou are strength and neatness of construction, combined with portability and convenience for the purpose required. A further advantage is that the size of the valise may be increased or diminished according to the amount of clothing or matter packed therein.
We claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- -'1. A combined shawl-strap and valise having an inner flexible lining faced with parallel wooden slats and adapted to be rolled up and fastened, substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination, with the flexible strap A, backed with the slats B, of the strap 0, secured tothe slats, and each provided at one end with a hook, H, provided with angular end projections, a or, adapted to engage with a slat, substantially as described.
