TRUNK OR CASE FORWEARlNG-APPAREL.
SPECIFICATION forming' part of Letters Patent No. 642,690, dated February 6, 1900'.
Application filed July 30, 1898.
To @ZZ wiz/0m it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARY GLOVER, a subject of Her Britanic Majesty Queen Victoria, residing at No. 29 Lower Charles street, Leicester, in the county of Leicester, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Trunks or Cases for Carrying or Exhibiting Ladies Wearing-Apparel or other Articles; and I do hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it api pertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to improvements in trunks or cases constructed and designed with a view of forming a traveling Wardrobe for the reception of dresses, blouses, hats, bonnets, boots, slippers, clean and soiled linen, toilet requisites, umbrellas, parasols, and other articles which it is the habit of persons carrying, especially so when the trunk or case is required to be used, such as by artists, several times in one night, or for customs examination,without packing or unpacking the articles.
Drawings accompanyithis specilication, which fully show the entire arrangement, and in which- Figure l is a View of the trunk open, and Fig. 2 a movable tray fitting on the strengthening-frame and fits flush with the top of the ends of the trunk.
The front of the trunk opens, and fitted to the sides are metal flanges ax, which grip the ends of the trunk when closed and keep them from bursting out. Said trunk or case A is constructed and arranged in the following manner: The body Bis made of wicker-work or of a material known as compressed cane covered on the outside with leather c and canvas and on the inside with a suitable lining material c. In the case of wicker both sides are covered with millboard o to present an even appearance thereto. The flanges or angles LX are also covered with leather and leather strips a are sewed over the edges. The inside of the drop-down front carries the straps l) for holding umbrellas, sticks, or the like, and tapes or cords b are tted to the lining of the lid. The strap b2 to the lining Serial No. 687,313. (No model.)
c of the front is fastened around the front of the strengthening-frame E. The ends and back of the trunk or case are riveted at e to the strengthening and carrying frame E, in which are firmly or removably liXed longitudinal and transverse rods H; Within this frame are the partition-wall F and floor, forming compartments for hats and boots or the like. Ordinary hanging devices are placed on the rods, adapted to hold and suspend the blouses, dresses, or other garments, as shown in Fig. 1. Soiled linen can be carried in the pocket e' on side of wall F. gloves, and handkerchiefs are placed in the compartments in the movable tray I and the latter in the boxes J. Said tray is of the size and ts on the frame E. The lid covers-'the drop-down front and is fastened thereto by the ordinary straps M and lock.
Among the advantages in the trunk that can specially be observed is that all the varions garments are carried in regular order and any one of them can be removed without interfering with or disturbing the others.
I would have it well understood that'I make no claim to a fall-down front, for in trunks they are Well known, or for a skirt-case with doors which when open disclose a sliding hanging frame Y.and that hanging devices have been secured to an open lid. These I disclaim; but
What I desire to secure by Letters Patent and claim is-d A wardrobe-trunk having a folding lid and front, the latter provided with flanges, the body formed of wicker-work covered on both sides with millboard and on the outside with leather and canvas, and on the inside with a suitable lining material, the back and ends riveted to a strengthening and carrying frame, and suspending devices fitted thereto, a removable tray fitting thereon, partitionwall and floor forming compartments; fastening-straps, substantially as described.
In witness whereof I hereunto affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
' MARY GLOVER.
