SADDLE BAG.
Patented Apr. 18, 1893.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM K. PEMBROKE'OF BETHALTO, ILLINOIS.
SADDLE-BAG.`
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.y 495,908, dated April 18, 1893 Application filed September 2, 1892. Serial No. 444,863. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM K. PEMBEOKE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bethalto, in the county of Madison and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Sad- J(Elle-Bag, of which the following is a specifica- Ion.
My invention relates t-o improvements in saddle-bags, designed especially for the use of traveling physicians, the objects in View being to provide a simple, cheap, and readily operated device, having a series of receptacles, all of which are held in their closed positions by the flaps of the saddle straps.
Furtherobjects and advantages of myinvention will appear in the following description and the novel features thereof will, be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
.In the drawings: Figure l is a perspective vlew of a pair of saddle bags embodying my invention, one being shown closed and the other open. Fig. 2 is a vertical central sectional view of one of the saddle-bags, showing the parts closed in full lines and open in dotted lines.
A represents the saddle strap, B B the saddle-bags, secured at their rear upper corners to said strap, and C C the covering-flaps, which fold over and are attached at their terminals to the outer sides of said bags.
The saddle-bags are essentially rectangular in shape, and are provided with the inclosing cases, D, having open upper ends or tops, and open front sides, closed, adjacent to the top by the transverse guard-plate, E, which, with the rear and sides of the case forms a pocket in which iits and operates, vertically, the upper receptacle, F. The lower receptacle, G, is fitted in the lower portion of the case, beloW the plane of the lower edge of the guardplate, and is hinged at its lower front corner to the bottom or floor of the case, as shown at g. This lower receptacle is adapted to swing outward at its top, as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 2, and it is connected, nearits rear side to the sides of the upper receptacle by means of links, H H, which, coming in contact with the guard-plate, limit the forward movement of the upper edge of the lower receptacle, as shown. The lower ends of said connecting links are pivoted tothe sides of the lower receptacle near its rear wall, and the upper ends thereof are pivoted to the sides of the upper receptacle at points intermediate between the front and rear walls thereof, whereby when the receptacles are in their closed positions, as shown in full lines in Fig. 2, the links are inclined rearwardly toward their lower ends, and when the receptacles are open said links incline forwardlyvtoward their lower ends, (as shown in dotted lines,) the lower receptacle being thus held in either its open or closed position by the weight of the upper receptacle. Furthermore, the lower ends of the links being secured to the lower receptacle near its rear wall, and said receptacle being hinged at the lower edge of its front wall, when the top of the receptacle is drawn forward and outward, to expose its contents and give access thereto, the upper receptacle is raised, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, thereby bringing its upper front edge above the plane of the upper edge of the guardplate. When the parts are in their closed positions the upper edge of the front wall of the upper receptacle is iush with the upper edge of the guard plate, and therefore when the covering-iiap is drawn tightly over the top of the case it bears upon the upper edge of the front wall of the upper receptacle and by preventing the elevation of the upper receptacle, prevents the opening or the accidental displacement of the lower swinging receptacle.
The upper edge of the front wall of the lower receptacle is adapted to iit snugly against the lower edge of the front wall of the upper receptacle, when the parts are in their closed positions, and to cover the joint thus formed, a covering plate, K, is secured to the front wall of the lower receptacle, and projects above or over-laps the same sufficiently to meet the lower edge of the guard-plate when the parts are closed, as shown in full lines in Fig. 2. The interior of the receptacle may be provided with the usual or any approved racks, compartments, dsc., for the purpose of holding the bottles, doc., required by the physician.
The construction herein described is applicable, not only to saddle-bags, as shown, but t0 other medicine cases, which may be carried in the han/d, or otherwise. I do not desire to IOO limit myself to the use of this construction in the particular connection described.
The hinge-rod, L, by which the sections of hinge attached respectively to the lower receptacle and the bottom of the case, are connected, is removable, to release the lower receptacle, whereby both receptacles may be removed from the casing for the purposes of cleaning, repairing, dac. This point is of special advantage in devices designed to contain medicines, &c.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a saddle-bag, a case having an open top and an open front side, partly closed at the top by a guard-plate E, a lower receptacle arranged in the bottom of the case and hinged thereto at its front lower edge, an upper rcceptacle fitted to slide in the top of the case and held in place by said guard-p1ate, and connecting links H, pivotally connected at their lower ends to the sides ot' the lower receptacle near its back, and at their upper ends to the side walls of the upper section near its front, the swinging movement of the lower casing being limited by the contact of the links with said guard-plate, substantially as specied.
2. In a saddle-bag, the combination with an inclosing case having a pocket at its top and an open front side below said pocket, of the hinged lower receptacle, the sliding upper section fitting in said pocket, the connectinglinks between said receptacles, and the coveringplate secured to the front wall of the lower receptacle and projecting above the upper edgeV thereof to cover the joint between the same and the lower edge of the front wall of the upper receptacle substantially as specitied.
3. In a saddle-bag, the combination with an inclosing case, of the upper sliding receptacle, the lower hinged receptacle, the hinge being arranged atthe lower edge of the front wall of the receptacle, and the connecting links pivotally connected to the side walls of the lower receptacle near its rear wall and to the side-walls of the upper receptacle at pointsintermediate between its front and rear walls, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM K. PEMBROKE.
