LEATHER PURSE MADE FROM ONE PIEcE BLANK WITH STORAGE SECTION IN TANDEM YIITH WIHDOWED DISPLAY sEcTIo Filed Aug. 12, 1944 Patented May 11, 1948 f UNITEDSTATES PATENT OFFICE LEATHER PURSE MADE FROM ONE-PIECE BLANK WITH STORAGE SECTION IN TAN DEM WITH WINDOWED DISPLAY SECTION Leopold G. Stanley, Maplewood, N. J.
Application August 12, 1944, Serial No. 549,173 2 Claims. (01. 15037) cles may readily be'slid at will from the storage section, for display and access, and similarly returned to the storage section; the case in its preferred form as illustrated being composed of or manufactured from a single unitary piece or blank of leather or similar limp sheet material A good example of such type of pocket case or coin purse is that shown in Figs; 1 to 6 of my copending application Serial No. 453,500, filed August 4, 1942, Patent Number 2,368,687, issued February 6, 1945.
The general object of the present invention is to provide a coin purse or similar case which is not only of great convenience in operation and compact and durable in use, but" simple and inexpensive in manufacture, with savings in material and labor and permitting marketing at a low price. A further object is to provide a coin purse which in a simple and easy manner may be manufactured from a single sheet or blank of leather or the like, initially stamped or out out to a given contour, and then having its several sections overfolded upon each other, with a minimum of edge stitching to secure permanently the layers into the desired finished form, having its display or window section at one end of the'complete case, which'may be closed by folding about a central fold line, and at the other end a storage section, which communicates with the display section when the case is open but which becomes locked against exit of coins when the case is folded and closed; and with preferably an extension at one end which, in the complete purse, forms an interior supplemental pocket, as for holding folded bills, cards or tickets, facing the general or main central hinge of the case. Other and further objects and advantages will be explained in the hereinafter following description of an illustrative embodiment of the invention or will be understood by those conversant with the subject.
To the attainment of such objects and advantages the present invention consists in the novel leather purse, and the novel features of combination, arrangement and structure herein illustrated and described.
In the accompanying drawings,
Fig. 1 shows at full length a face view of a leather piece or blank after being cut out in the preferred manner for the manufacturing of the case of this invention.
a I! along their side edges.
Fig. 2 shows the same blank after the overfolding upon the outer layer of the inner layer and the extension layer, all shown in tandem in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the completing steps of stitching longitudinally along the side edges, thus uniting the three layers, and stitching a tab piece provided at the display section in the cutting of the original blank.
Fig. 4 is a side edge view of the'purse shown in Fig. 3. s
.Fig. 5 shows the purse of Figs. 3 and 4 after it has been closed and fastened by the tab means.
The disclosed purse has certain general features in common with said prior patent, being a purse for coins and the like comprising peripherally=interconnected outer and inner layers l0 and II of sheet material and having a storage section 48 and a display or tray section [9, the two intercommunicating longitudinally between the outer and-inner layers when the purse is open, butthe storage section being closed and sealed when the purse is closed by the folding together of the two sections about their central lateral hinge line, and the display section havproviding a loose marginal strip 25 instanding from theperipherythus to constitute an edge rim around the end and bothsides of the display section, and of narrow width.
The present, improvement is characterized in one aspect in that thepurse is constructed of a one-piece blank having the outer layer unitary intandem with the display end of the inner layer at one: end and at the other end with a short extension layer l2; the inner layer ll being overfolded about the fold line H! upon theouter layer l0 and the extension or overlapping layer l2 being overfolded upon the inner layer about the fold line l5, and the three layers being stitched together by the longitudinal stitch lines This completes the purse as far as described, and the exterior layer forms with the inner layer a flat pocket 20 at the storage end of the purse opening toward the central hinge line IS.
The display opening or window 22 in the inner layer II is preferably formed in the manner shown, namely, by means of a cross slit 23, slightly removed from the general hinge line l8 and a pair of apertures 24 at which the material is cut out of the blank. This provides a large tab 26 which, in Figs. 1 and 2, appears to block the access window of the purse but which, in its final form, constitutes a manipulating and locking tab, bent longitudinally outwardly, to extend beyond the inner layer II, and there carrying a snap fastener or socket member 21 which, in the final closing, may cooperate with a fastener stud member 28 at the outer side of the outer layer Ill. The tab 26, where it is bent longitudinally outward,is preferablyifi'attened or fastened upon the en-d'mar'ginalrim 25, for example by a line of stitching 29 applied before the lines of side stitching l1, ll are applied.
The tab 26 not merely serves :to lock closed the purse as in Fig. 5, but is useful wh'en'the purse is in open position asinIF-ig; 3 "fonmanipulating the rim 25 surrounding the display window. When the purse is open the coins'within the storage section may be slid athrough into the display section by tilting the purse, and. at. .this time the tab 26 can readily be pulled upon, "thus swinging upwardly the marginal rim, so that the "coins are safely received as in a tray.
"ma -since they are naturally closed by the smoothly rounded 'f-ol'd lines l 4 and- I 5, providing a a very slightly finished article.
What is claimed is:
1; A pulse for coins a'nd the like comprising peripherally "interconnected outer and inner layers of' sheet materially-and havinga storage sectionand a display -"ortray section, the two sections *intercommunicating longitudinally between said layers "when the purse is open but the storage section being closed 'when the purse is closeil' by the' folding together oi "the two :sec-
tions' a'bout their central lateral 'hinge line, and the display section having the inner layer cutaway to form an access" window slightly smaller both longitudinally and laterally than the hisplay section, 'therebyproviding :a n fiexible mar- "ginalstr'ip instanding from the periphery, to constitute anarrow edge-rim around the-end and both sides of the section; and characterizedrin th-at thepurse is constructed of a one-piece blank having the outer layer unit'ary-in tandem "with the display 'en'd-o'f theinner layer -at the display end, and at the-storage-end with a short extension layer; the inner layer being 'overfolded upon the "outer layer at the display end and the extension layer upon the 'inner' layer at the storage end, thus pro'ducingfull width folds and squared ends,
arid thethreelayers'being stitched together longitudinallyfrom 'end toend along theirtside edges; the overflded extension layer forming with the *inner'layer ashort overlying flat pocket at "the storage-end of the purse opening toward the -:central hinge; and characterized furthertin that a substantial integral portion of the" window a cutaway -material is left 'un'severed from the :mar-
ginal end strip and forms a tab unitary therewith which is bent and secured to the end strip to project outwardly endwise well beyond the display section end that is remote from the hinge line, and is provided with fastening means to fasten its end to cooperating fastening means on the outer side of the outer layer, thereby to secure the closed ,purse in closed position; and said tab'being also'ad'apted to bepulled. to manipulate the marginal end rim to stand up as a barrier to the spilling of coins being slid from the storage to the :display section.
2. Apurse for coins and the like comprising oblong iouter. and inner layers of leather material with squared ends, said layers being integrally united endwise as a single piece of leather "and flatly interstitched along their side edges, and consisting of storage and tray sections intercommunicating longitudinally between said layers when the purse is open but the storage 'section be'ing closed when the purse is closed by the folding together v:of the two sections about their :central lateral hinge line, and the tray sec- --ti'on in 'theiiinner layer *being ,cut away to provide a space forming an access windowslig'htly smaller :both. longitudinally and laterally than the section, thereby providing a narrow gflexible marginal strip instanding "irom'the periphery, :to constitute an edge 'rimsurrounding therwimzimiv around the end andboth sides of :the section; wherein :a-substantial portion of the cutaway material of the window space irema-ins :unsevered from the end marginalrimandforms a tab-which 'is-adapted to be bent outwar.dl y:endwise rto prql'ect well beyond the tray section end, and saiditab being v(adapted to be pulled to cause the tray "section end rim tostand up as a barrier against endwise spillingzof coins sliding .from .the storage section on to vthetray section; and whereinthe tab iswbent .flatly out endwise against the end trim and .rnearits bend .is affixed against the-end rim to maintain its endwise projecting disposition.
