TELESCOPING DRESSING-CASE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 629,012, dated July 18, 1899. Application filed October 14,1898. Serial No. 693,556, (No model.)
To @ZZ who/1t it may concern,.-
Be it known that I, DUGALD S. McINrrRn,
a citizen of the United States,1esiding at Flint,
in the county of Genesee and State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Telescoping Dressing-Cases, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in telescoping dressing-cases, and has for its object to provide effective means for preventing the bulging of such cases when they are lled and their contents compressed.
A further object of my invention is to p'rovide convenient means for securing the top or cover upon the body of the case and holding the same in various adjustments and yet readily permitting the openin g of the case and the removal of the cover.
With these ends in view this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claim.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, the construction and operation will now be described in detail, referring to theaccompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which-n Figure l is a perspective of a telescoping case having my improvement combined therewith 5 Fig. 2, a cross-section on a large scale; Fig. 3, an enlarged section of a portion of the case and top, showing one of the fasteners engaged;V and Fig. e, a similar view showing a slightly-modified form of fastener.
In carrying out my invention as here embodied A represents the body of the case, and Bthe top thereof,which is fitted to slide thereover in the ordinary manner. To the bottom of the body of the case are riveted or otherwise secured the metal strips C, (here shown as two in number,) and these strips have hinged to each end thereof the fastener-strips D, having a spring E so arranged at the heel of each hinge as to force the fastener-strip inward when brought to an approximately vertical position or hold said strips in a horizontal position when swung outward. The top B has also secured thereto by rivets or otherwise the strips F,which correspond in location to the fastener-strips, and these strips F have formed therein the holes or sockets G, said holes being located at equidistantpoints along that portion of each strip lying against the side of the top. By this arrangement when the fastener-strips are swung into position and in contact with the strips F eertain fasteners l-I will enter into engagement with the holes G, and thus secure the top in position.
In practice it is preferable that the fastenerstrips shall extend to approximately the same height as the body of the case,while the strips F also extend Vdownward to the edges of the top, which will permit the adjustment of the top upon the body through the entire range from the lowest position of the top to a point just prior to its removal, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, thus permitting the case to be used to its fullest capacity.
The strips F may have that portion of vthe stock which is partially' punched from the holes G turned inward and utilized for securing the strips to the top, as indicated at I, and likewise the fastener-stri ps may have the fasteners I-I produced by a portion of the metal being partially punched therefrom and bent inward, as shown in Fig. 3, or the fastener and sockets may be made as shown in Fig. et, in which case the strips F are thickened upon their vertical sections or have reinforces secured thereto, in which the sockets J are formed, while the fastener-strips have the studs K secured thereto, adapted to enter these sockets and be retained therein for the securement of the top in place.
Among the principal advantages of this improvement are that the metal strips serve to hold the case and its top in shape and prevent the outward bulging thereof when filled with clothing and the like and also the convenience with which the top is secured in any adjustment and with which it may be removed when occasion requires.
In the removal of the top it is only necessary to swing the fastener-strips outward, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, when the top may be removed by grasping the handle L, and to replace the top it is only necessary to slide it in position and swing the fastenerstrips against the strips F, when the fasteners carried by the first-named strips will entures, said tongues adapted to clench the Wall of the top7 metallic strips secured to the bottom of the body, a fastening-strip hinged to the last-named strip having projecting fasteners punched therefrom and adapted to enter the apertures and the strip of the top, as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribin g Witnesses.
DUGALD S. MCINTYRE.
