BAGGAGE HANDLE Filed Sept. 16, 1949 NVENTOR flifarney Patented Sept. 9, 1952 r William Finkelstein, PhiladelphiaPa. Application September 16, 1949, Serial No. 116,035 r ,1.
1 Claim.
1 i x My invention relates to a baggage handle and relates particularly to a handle adapted for bag:- age, hand luggage, etc.
It is an object of my invention to provide a luggage handle which possesses great strength, which is comfortable to the hand, and which may be covered with leather, imitation leather, or any other suitable covering that will match the rest of the luggage to which it is to be made a part of Another object of my invention is to provide a luggage handle which will not pull out or be pushed through the bag.
Other objects of my invention are to provide an improved device of the character described, that is easily and economically produced, which is sturdy in construction, and which is highly eificient in operation.
With the above and related objects in view, my invention consists in the details of construction and combination of parts, as will be more fully understood from the following description, when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a baggage handle embodying my invention;
Fig. 2 is an end view of a handle embodying my invention.
Fig. 3 is a side View of the handle and its support.
Fig. 4 is a view of the central rod.
Fig. 5 illustrates a filler.
Fig. 6 is a view of. the filler and rod of Fig. 5 formed into a handle.
Fig. '7 isa view of a modification of my invention for attaching the handle to the support.
Fig. 8 is a view of the modified form of the central rod, one end of which is shown in Fig. 7.
Referring now in greater detail to the drawings wherein the same reference characters refer to the same parts, I show a baggage handle wherein the outside covering may be made of the same matching material as the'bag itself or it may be made of complementary matching material. I
The U-shaped handle is attached to the has, generally designated as A, by virtue of two posts, each of which is generally designated as B. The posts B also pass through a flat metallic plate, generally designated as C, which lies upon the upper surface of the bag and extends for a greater length than the distance between the posts B, B, so that the posts B, B, penetrate both the plate C and the upper surface of the bag A.
The penetrating portion of the post B passes through a washer ID on the under side of the bag A so that the bag upper surface lies between the plate C and the washer l0 after the end I2 of the penetrating portion of the post B is peened over to hold the post in position. With the construction aforedescribed the post can neither be pulled or pushed through the bag.
The post B has a slot 14 in which a pin 15 passes. An end l6 of a baggage handle, generally designated as D, has a bearing opening I8 through which the pin passes so that the end of the handle D may swivel from one side of the posts to the other side.
The ends [6, [6 of the handle are the ends of a unitary metal rod 20 which actually is joined to each of the posts B, B.
The rod 20 provides rigidity and strength to the handle whereby the bag may be carried.
' A filler 22 of cardboard or other suitable material is wound around the rod 20 so that the thickest portion of the filler is at the center of the red.
A covering 24 of leather or other suitable material for the handle provides the finishing external covering and the covering is adapted to match the luggage. The covering has its free ends 26, 26 on the upper surface of the handle with a series of stitches 28 holding the ends 26, 26 together and with a ridge 3!] formed upon the upper surface of the handle D.
The gripping portion of the handle is smooth to the hand and the handle will not tend to bend because of the rigidity of the central connecting rod 20.
In Figs. 7 and 8 I show a modification of my invention wherein the metallic central bar 20A has a screwed-on-end 32 which is cylindrical at the V screwed-on portion and flat at 34 where it attaches to the post, similarly to the flattened end E6 of the rod 20.
The handle forms an inverted U with the ends substantially parallel to one another.
Although my invention has been described in considerable detail, such description is intended asbeing illustrative rather than limiting, since the invention may be variously embodied, and the scope of the invention is to be determined as claimed.
I claim as my invention: A handle means for a suitcase or the like com prising a relatively thin, fiat plate, a pair of tubular socket membersmo-unted on said plate in spaced relation to each other, a pair of perforations in said plate, a portion on each of said socket members being adapted to extend through one of the perforations in said plate and through 3 a correspondin perforation in the top surface of a suitcase, each of .said portions being further adapted to be peened over into locking position against a washer held below the said. top surface bers, and a covering adapted to envelopthe major portion of said handle portion.
