7 Claims. Cl. 190-43) This invention relates to travel bags and particularly to luggage arranged to contain garments in a naturally hanging position when it is suspended at one end by a hook in an automobile or clothes closet. When this type of luggage is to be carried manually, however, it may be folded into a compact U-shaped configurationand grasped by one or more handles provided for that purpose.
Previous travel bags of this type are generally made of flexible textile or plastic sheet materials which usually require some form of reinforcement both at their corners and intermediate their ends, various stiffening wire frames and metal slots having been improvised in order to maintain the substantially rectangular conformation of the bag.
These expedients have been considerably less than satisfactory, since they do not permit the bag to give adequate protection to the clothes when the bag is handled roughly in transportation either by automobile or by train. Also these reinforcing means have not been adequate to permit the bag, when folded into the carrying position, to stand firmly, since at best, their frames have been quite unstable and permitted the bag to lean unnaturally or fall sidewise to the floor, thus subjecting the garments within the undesired crushing and other disturbances.
In order to obviate the foregoing difficulties and in order to provide a foldable type luggage which is rugged and stable for travel purposes, I now provide a bag made of a pair of unitary shells of a suitable integrally molded stiffened material, said shells being hinged, to a unitary carrying cap of substantially the same material as said shells, said cap serving to enclose the one end of said shells, to form a protective carrying cover when the bag is in the folded position.
Still other objects and advantages of my invention will be apparent from the specification.
The features of novelty which I believe to be characteristic of my invention are set forth herein and will best be understood, both as to their fundamental principles and as to their particular embodiments, by reference to the specification and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the travel bag, shown in the suspended position;
Fig. 2 is an end view of the bag shown in thefolded carrying position; 1
Fig. 3 is a side elevation, partly broken away, of the bag shown in Fig. 2; a
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary detail end view of the central portion of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective interior view of the bag in accordance with the portionthereof shown in Fig. 4;
Fig. 6 is a view taken on line 6-6 of Figs. 5 and 7; and
Fig. 7 is a view taken on line 7--7 of Figs. 5 and 6.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, the travel bag nited States Patent 2,887,196 C6 Patented May 19, 1959 of the present invention comprises a pair of shells, generally designated 21 and 22, respectively, both pivotally attached to a cap, generally designated 23. Cap 23 consists of a top wall 31, two end walls 32 and two side walls 33, said end walls and side walls forming a unitary rim. (Figs. 1, 2, 3.) Shell 21 is formed of a bottom wall 24, two end walls 25, and a side wall 26, while shell 22 is formed of a bottom wall 27, two end walls 28 and a side wall 29.
In other embodiments of the present invention, shells 21 and 22 may be pivotally connected to cap 23 by means of metal hinges of various types that are riveted or otherwise attached to these component parts. Such metal hinges would perform the same functions as strip 35 between the shells and the cap.
The upper edges of walls 25, 26 and 28, 29 ofshells 21 and 22 respectively, are otfset inwardly as at 43, 44 (Fig. 1), and at 45, 46 (Fig. 4), said offset portions extending at least partially into the interior of cap 23 when the bag is folded, to form an overall smooth surface, for the bag, as illustrated in Figs. 2. and 3, and to enhance the protective function of said'cap as provided. by the integral band or rim formed by cap walls 32 and 33.
Positioned between shells 21 and 22 is a sheet 51, which serves as a lining underneath cap 23 when the bag is closed (Fig. 5). The gusset ends 52 and 53 of sheet 51 extend substantially perpendicularly from the main portain of'said sheet and are secured by rivets 54,orthe like, to offset portions 43 and 44 on shells 21 and 22, respectively. Also secured by said rivets to said offset portions are the perpendicularly extending parallel legs 55 and 56 of braces 57 and 58, respectively, the main portions of which extend across the interiors of the offset portions 45 and 46 of shells 21 and 22, respectively. One edge of sheet 51 extends between, and a short distance beyond, brace 57 and offset portion 45, while the other edge of said' sheet extends between, and a short distance beyond, brace 58 and offset portion 46. Said edges of said sheet 51 may be secured to the interiors of shells 21 and 22, respectively, by means of a suitable adhesive or binding tape. Sheet 51 and its gussets 52 and 53 are yieldably connected between shells 21 and 22 so that the slack in the fabric may accommodate to the opening and closing of the bag.
Connected by suitable means such as stitching or the like to the inner edges of shells 21 and 22 is a fabric inner wall 61 which forms an enclosure for the bag in its extended position, as shown in Fig. 1. The outer ends of gussets 52 and 53 are stitched or otherwise connected to therespective adjacent edge portions of inner wall 61 (Figs. 1 and 5) to form the unitary enclosure for the travel bag. When shells 21 and 22 are brought together as in Fig. 2, gussets 52 and 53 withdraw by wrinkling and folding to a position underneath cap 23. Inner wall 61 has a separable panel 62 which forms a closure for the bag, said panel being opened and closed by means of slide fastener 63 movable along fastener track 64. Additionally, inner wall 61 may have an opening 65 which is closed by a slide fastener 66, said opening communicating with a pocket compartment, not shown, on the interior of the bag.
In the specification, I have explained the principles of my invention, and the best mode in which I have contemplated applying those principles, so as to distinguish my invention from other inventions; and I have particularly pointed out and distinctlyclairned the part, mode or combination which I claim as my invention or discovery.
While I have shown and described certain preferred embodiments of my invention, it will be understood that modifications and changes may be madewithout departing from the function and scope thereof, as will be clear to those skilled in the art.
