JOSEPH PENNEY, OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
COMBINED DRESSING-CASE AND WASH-STAND.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 272,467, dated February 20, I883.
Application filed January 24, 1882. (No model.) 4
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JOSEPH PEnNEY,of the city of Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Combined Dressing-Case and Wash- Stand,of which the followingis aspecification.
The invention relates to a combined dressing-case and wash-stand, so constructed that the top of the dressing-case swings off horizontally.
The object of my invention is to combine in one portable construction a dressing-case and wash-stand.
The invention consists in the combination, with a mirror, of a movable top of a dressingcase, hinged or attached at or near one end to the body of the casein such a manner as to be readily swung or turned horizontally from the body of the dressing-case and wash-stand.
of anysuitablematerial or of any desired form;
It supports the frame P P and mirror G, as shown, and is hinged or attached to the body at or near one end in any suitable manner. I
have shown the attachment in Fig. 3 by means of a pivot, N. When the top T is heavy it may be desirable to have its cbrners supported by legs resting on casters, as shown by LL in Fig.
2. I attach the standardsto the upper side of the top T, so that in swinging oft" the mirror may be carried around as far as the top may swing, and I hang the mirror so that it maybe turned bottom upward, thus reversing the v mirror. The mirror is thus made to sweep three-fourths the entire horizon, while retaining the ordinary features of vertical oscillations. By this device they mirror may be used from either side of the dressing-case, and may be turned so as to reflect the light from any desired direction, and this without removing or disturbing the useful and ornamental articles usually kept on the top of the dressingease. It will be seen that the top T rests, in whole or in part, on the top of the body of the dressing'case at alltimes. The body of the case may be divided, as shown in Fig. 1, so that the part to the leftof the center partition may be used as a dressing-case and that portion to the right maybe used as a commode or wash-stand proper.
R represents the waterreservoir, whlch should be constructed to occupy as little room as possible, and may be placed conveniently, as shown, back of or at either side of the basin. By making it rectangular in form, as shown in Figs. 3, 4, it takes but little room. In front of the tank R is the wash-basin O, which may be of the usual form and supported in any suitable manner.
0 represents the cover of a dipper, and I a tube connected with said dipper to convey water from the dipper into the wash-basin; but the dipper and construction of its parts are not more fully shown and described here, as the same is reserved as the subject of another application.
W represents a vessel for receiving the water after it has been used. The basin may be provided with an opening at the bottom, to which is fitted a plug, so that the water after being used may be drawninto the vessel W. The vessel W may be provided with afaucet or cook, so .as to draw the water. from the outside of the wash-stand without removing the vessel.
The basin O,if found desirable, maybe made in theordinary manner of making wash-basins which are emptied from the top. K represents that part of the body of the case and wash-stand that is sunk down, making a receptacle for the toilet articles. It should be made-of suitable depth for that purpose, and may be divided by partitions, it desired.
The reservoir is so constructed as to be readily lifted out, and may be used as a water-carrier,ifi, desired. The basin and water-receiver WV may also be readily removed, so that the wash-stand can be kept clean and tidy at all times.
I am aware that basins and water-tanks have in various other combinations held similar relationships; but I am not aware that one compartment has been made to contain both,or
that a movable waste-tank has also been provided with a waste-cock to be used without I articles are old, and I do not therefore claim removal of the tank.
I am also aware that tanks containing supply water have been located, in whole or in part, on lower levels than the basin of washstands; but I am not aware of any device similar or equivalent to mine being adapted for transferring water without the use of pumps or valves.
I am aware that tables with swinging tops, and having compartments and receptacles below for the reception of various articles and bureaus provided with mirrors and with liftin g hinged lids covering compartments for the reception of removable water-basins and toilet the same; but
What I do claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a combined bureau and dressing-case, the horizontally-swinging top, in combination with the mirror, whereby the top and mirror may be swung to uncover the bureau and the mirror be used in any position desired without disturbing the articles on the dressing-case, substantially as described.
JOSEPH PENNEY.
