MASCARA cAsE Neil, S. Waterman, Scarsdala'N.'VV Y., assignor, by mesne assignments, to Tarlen Corporation, White Plains, N. Y., a corporation of New YorkA Application Augusta, 1946, seria1`N0-e9sga59 (ci. 22o-4) 13 Claims.
This invention relates to` new and useful imy provements in cases, and has` more particular reference to a mascara case.
The invention particularly proposes the construction of a mascara case from thermoplastic orthermo-setting materials soconstructed that it hasva hinge and a lock formed entirely fromV struct-the hinge that the two case sections maybe assembled by merely engaging them.r together. They may be disassembled by forcing them apart.V Y Y The inventionalso proposes to so construct the case sections that locking elements are formed thereon which are capable of engagingeach other to hold the case sections closed. It is an object of this inventionzto so construct the locking elements that they are formed. entirely from the material of the case sections. Moreover, the locking elements are so formed that the case sections may be constructed with a simple molding die.
The invention also proposes to so design each of the case sections that theymay be constructed with simple molding dies. The case sections may be provided with partitions for.y dividing oil dif--A ferent chambers which ,are open in the same direction, for each of the case sections, to permit simple opening and closingof the molding dies.
, Another objecty of thisiinvention. is the con- Y struction of an article4 as described which is simple and durable and which may `be manufactured and soldat a reasonable'cost.
For further comprehension of the invention, and oftheobjects and advantages thereof, referenceY will be hadto the following descriptiony and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the Y invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a material part ofY this disclosure: y
Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a case constructed in accordance with this inventionrand illustrated in a closed position.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the case shown y in Fig. 1 illustrated in anA open position.

Fig; '7 isa side elevational view of Fig. 6 to which a. portion of `the top section has been added, positioned vertically so as to indicate the manner vin Whichthe hinged portions of the case sections may be connected together.
Fig. 8 is, an end4 view looking in the direction of the lineV S-il of Fig. 7. Fig. 9 is a horizontal sectionalview as though taken on the line 9-#9 of Fig. '7,' butV illustrated with the hinge elements. of the case sections connected'together. Y
Fig.' 10 is a fragmentary side elevational View similar to Fig.,7., but disclosing a case constructed inaccordance with another. form of thisV invention.y Y v Fig, 1l is a fragmentary end view of the case base section shown in Fig. l0.
The4 new case, inY accordance With this invention,r includes a molded case base section I@ and a molded case top section I I. The base section I0 has a base wall I2, ange-like side walls I3 having an opposed pair ofi studs I4v on their inner faces. The base section Ill isalso provided with a back wall I6 and a horizontal partition I1 extending forwards from said back wallk I6 and located between said side walls I3` for forming a compartment I8 yfor a mascara brush, schematically indicated by the dot and dash lines I9. This compartment I8 isopen towards'the front end ,ofA they case section IG. 4
The, top section II is of a Width to closely i'lt between saidange-'like side walls I3. The top section I I .has a top wall ZI, this wall 2I being at the topwhen the case is closed, as illustrated in Fig. 1.( The` topsection II is also provided with end Walls`22and 23, Side Walls 24, andsmall openings 25 extended downwards from said top wall 2| and into said side walls 24 for. receiving the I4' have beveled ends 2 6 directed towards the front of the case iorslightly exing said flange-like side walls I3 when studs I4 are engaged into `the openings 25 so that the I4 Vengage against the bottom face of the top Wall (see particularly Fig. 9) for holding. theA case sections pivotally together. l
. The horizontal partition I1 is located substantially midway of the height of the base sections It. The top sectionY II is positioned above the partition, I1. A transverse wall 2l isformed across the side Walls 24 of the top section I I Yside walls I3.Y
`height so as to extend down and close the open end between the flange-like side walls I3. A small flange 30 is formed upon the front top end of the top section Il and is opposed to a small iiange-like projection 3I formed upon the bottom of the front end of the base section I so as to be opposed to the iiange and to constitute grips so that the case sections may be easilyu opened and closed. The frontwall 22 of the top section II has a slightly curved-face 32Y (se'Fig. 1) to provide additional room for gripping the flange 30 and projection 3I. the top section I I, which is near the hinge of the The corner 34 of li'iV o walls and side Walls and openings extended case, is rounded and is adapted to mate with a curved edge formed upon the top of the end wall I'6 of the base section I0.
The top front corners rof the flange-like side walls I3 are formed with notches 36 constituting latch elements. These notches 36 have down# wardly and rearwardly beveled ends 31 (see Fig. '7) and beveled faces 38 (see Fig. 6) to facilitate the latching action. These notches 36 are complementary to bolt-like projections 39 formed upon the ends of the fiange 30. The projections 239 have beveled faces (see Fig. 4) and beveled ends 4I (see Fig. 3) facilitating the inter-engagement with the bevels of the notches 36.
It is an important featurel of this invention that the case sections I0 and II may be molded in a simple molding die. It should be noted that the base section I IJ has all openings and inclined faces directedtowards thefront of the case. Forth-is reason adie may be constructed which separates upon a vertical plane through the centers of the studs I4. This vertical plane must terminate a short distance above the curved edge 350i the rear wall I6. Thesections of the die will now be openable right and left.. The top section I6 has all of its openings and inclined faces directed upwards and downwards. For this Y reason it may be constructed with a simple die whiehopens up and down.v The case sections Ill and II are molded separately.A They `are then Vconnected by placing the-top sectionV II in a vertical position while the bottom section ID is in a horizontal position, as illustrated in Fig. 7.. The case section I'I is then moved towards the left so that the'studs I4 ride into the openings 25.V Thebeveled faces 26 of the studs I4 will ride against theadjacent edges of the top wall 2I fof the Vsection II causing the flange-like sidewalls I3 to flex outwards momentarily, while the Vends of the studs I4 snap across the bottom face of the top wall 2|' of the section II to a position as illustrated in Fig. 9.
In Figs. 10 and 11 a modified form of case embodying this invention has been disclosed. In this form 'of case, the compartment I8 for the mascara brush I9'is formed by a. mirror, schematically indicated by the dot and dash lines 45. This mirror is supported at each of its sides between vertically spaced horizontal strip portions 46 formed on the inner faces of the ange-like y The spaces betweenV the strip portions 46 are open-to the front end of the case so that the strip portions 46 may be easily molded While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modiiications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
