A plate 23 of metal or other; suitable is slidablsmmounted on. th z t do erm 241 ,ofyihe Safety-pin C, said plate v23' havingkibs; upper, edge bentor foldedloosely about the harm 2439f: th safetyupimas'a-t 25', whereby to suspende thel said plate swinginglyfrom'the safety pm. This plate 2'3grhas one 'endiprovidedi withvfhinge knuckles 26 adapted for pivotal .I or hingeconnection-with. the hinge-knuckle 2 of -almetal or vother?armc28;
there-being a'hinge pint'le 279' 'efiective'ly swingingly connectingsaid hinge knuckles together to provide "fora swinging movement of said ar 2v8f across the inter ior 'of1the hand bag. The arm 28i'car-ries depending rings or' loops and 3| are preferably resilient or bendable so as to provide for a tight gripping of the flash light and yet,'wlien .desire,d, "as whena'jnew batteryis needed for the" flash light, the lattermay be removed and replaced. A new battery can be inserted in the flash light casing without removing the flash light from the rings or loops 30 and 3| by removing the detachable end cap 32 from the flash light casing, if necessary sliding the flash light slightly away from inner end a of the arm 28;
It will thus be seen that by virtue of :the slid; j
able mounting of the plate 23 on the arm 24 of the safety pin and the hinged connection 26 2 1 29 between theasaidjplaiie and the'I arm 28; that theflash light canbesl'iifted in the hand bag: lengthwise threqf'anu also) crosswise, of
the-bag and also iirtedjui wardly orjoutw'ardl'y on t he arm '28 of the safetylpin by reason of the loose sliding connectionbetween the'plate 23 and the safety pin arm. 24, therebyprovidingfor illumination over various' 'portions of the interior of the hand bag and providingfor the use at times; or if desired; of the flash light for lighting purposes outside of thebag by opening the latter ands winging'the flash light nearer to the open mouth'of the bag, enabling the user in a time of darkness to locate a desired key on a key ring usually 'carried-iin' a hand bag; as well as aiding in. locatingajkey hole. "j a ,In Figures 6 and "7 there is illustrated .a medi fied' form of the invention inwhich the flashlight the enlarged supporting means differs from 'thatillustrated inFi'gures '1 to 5, inclusive, "and in' which the arm 28' is hingedly connected as atZBaj This arm at its outer end has a laterally directed ex tension 28" to which is securedin' any suitable manner, as soldering or riveting, {the usual screw threaded'cap a at theinner end of-the ordinary flash light and into the socket of i cap it the flash light casing canbe screwed and unscrewed; In other'words, the usual cap at theinner end of the flash light can 'be'removed from the fiash light'casing and be secured by riveting; soldering or in any suitable manner, to' the lateral extenframe.
The short arm 43 has a hinged connection 26" with the plate 4| and the short arm 43 is provided withashort lateral extension 3'5'; "as in Figures 6 and 7, to which the-usual flashlight casing cap 35" is secured, as in Figures 6 and '7 to receive exteriorly threaded inner end of the flash light casing B" as in the modified form illustrated in Figures 6 and 7.
. Thus,vin the form of the invention illustrated in Figures 8 and 9, the flash light can be swung upwardly in a vertical plane toward the mouth of the hand bag and it also has longitudinal movement along the rod 33 as well as a horizontal swinging movement by reason of the hingedconnection between theplate ll' an the, short arm 43which carries the'flash'li'ght;
From the foregoing it will be seenthatfth'e use of intricate wiringin the handbag or other portable container is ojbviatedby the use of the common small sized" flash light and that the in vention is thereby simplified and economicalof manufactureeither asan originalpart of ajmanufactured container oras an article of ma ufac ture for detachable associatiohwith are or worn portable container.
What-is claimed is'i' I 1f 7 1. Light supportingmeansfor hand bags, and
