UNITED STATES PATENT oEEroE.
C. A. TAYLOR, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
BONNET-BOX.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 28,916, dated June 26, 1860.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, C. A. TAYLOR, of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bonnet-Boxes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l, represents a longitudinal vertical section of my invention, the line a', fr, Fig. 2, indicating the plane of section. Fig. 2, is a horizontal section of the same taken in the plane indicated by the line y, y, Fig. l.
Similar letters of reference in both views indicate corresponding parts.
To pack up and to ship a bonnet from place to place has hitherto been very dificult on account of the inadequate means to preserve the same while being shipped, against injury, and many costly bonnets have been destroyed, or injured by being sent without being packed up properly and so as to preserve them from getting damaged when the box is knocked about. To guard against these difficulties and to provide means to pack up bonnets with safety and to send them from place to place without injury is the object of my invent-ion, which consists in arranging in the bonnetbox an adjustable stand with a suitable form to receive the crown of the. bonnet, in combination with a spring pad in such a manner that bonnets of different sizes can be secured between said form and spring-pad, and sent from place to place without getting injured even if the box should be roughly treated and knocked about without regard to its contents.
To enable those skilled in the art, to make, and use my invention I will proceed to de- Y scribe its construction and operation with reference to the drawing.
'A represents a box made of wood, leather or paste board or of any other suitable material sufficiently strong to prevent its being crushed by any ordinary pressure to which the box may be subjected. A door, B, allows access to the interior of the box, and secured to its bottom is a plate, C, furnished with ways, a, to receive a sliding stand, D. A set screw, o, allows of adjusting said stand in the desired position, and it is made of such a height as to bring the bonnet, which rests on its top, to about the center of thebox and clear of the sides of the same.
Secured to the top of the stand, D, by means of a thumb-screw, c, is the form, E, which is made to lit to the interior of the crown of the bonnet to be packed. A sliding motion in a longitudinal direction is allowed to this form by means of a slot d, through which the thumb-screw, c, passes and by this motion any little deficiency in the position of the stand, D, is made up or corrected.
F, is a spring-pad which is attached to the back of the box, and which is intended to press on the outside of the crown of the bonnet.
In order to pack up a bonnet in my box, the stand is drawn forward and the bonnet is adjusted on the form E. lIhe stand is now pushed back, until the crown of the bonnet is firmly secured between the form, E, and spring-pad, F, and in this position it is secured by the set screw Z9. When necessary the form may be forced still closer toward the spring-pad by relaxing the thumb-screw, c, and pushing it back, or if the bonnet should be pressed too tight between said pad and the form, it may be released by pushing the form forward, until it (the bonnet) is secured in the proper position between the form, E, and the spring pad, F. By these means the bonnet can now be sent with perfect safety.
The advantage of this box will be readily appreciated by every owner of a bonnet and particularly b milliners who find it in many cases very dihcult to supply their customers at a distance simply from the want of the adequate means to forward the bonnets. My invention will also be of great value to ladies who intend to travel, and many Valu- Aable bonnets will be saved by the use of my CHAS. A. TAYLOR.
