PACKING AND STORING VESSEL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 739,021, dated September 15, 1903.
Application filed January 28, 1903. Serial No. 140,936. (No model.)
T at whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN C. OSHEA, a citizen of the United States, residing at Washington, in the District of Columbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Packing and Storing Vessels; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ofthe invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to folded receptacles of flexible material for various purposes, such as coin-purses, tobacco-pouches, bags for mail and other purposes, and all kinds of vessels to which the novel closing devices can be applied.
This invention consists in certain folds and flaps formed in and upon the flexible material at the mouth of the receptacle or vessel, as hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of a coin-purse,fshowing it closed. Fig. 2 is a plan view showing the purse partially open. Fig. 3 is a side view of the purse. Fig. 4 is a detail view of the blank from which the coin-purse is formed. Fig. 5 is a detail view of a blank for a coin-purse provided with a lining. Fig. 6 is asimilar view of Fig. 5, but with the lining removed and the flaps 12 and 13 raised. Fig. 7 is a plan view of a tobaccopouch. Fig. 8 is a side view of the same. Fig. 9 is a side view of a bag. Fig. 10 is a detail view of the blank from which the top part of-the bag is formed. Fig. 11 is a side view of a coin-purse provided with gussets.
Fig. 12 is a detail view of the blank from which the purse provided with gussets' is formed. Fig. 13 is a detail view of a blank for making a double coin-purse. Fig. 14 is a plan view of the top of a bag provided with locking-flaps. Fig. 15 is a detail view of the blank from which the top of the bag provided with locking-flaps is formed- In carrying out thisinvention certain novel flaps and'folds are formed on and in a piece of flexible material, such as leather; but any other similar material which is flexible may be used.
In a simple form of the invention, such as the coin-purse shown in Figs. 1 to 4, A is a thin sheet or strip of leather or other flexible material four times as long as it is broad. B
is a triangular portionprojecting at the middle of the bottom of the strip and forming half a square. D is atriangular projection or flap at the top of the strip and forming about a one-eighth part of a square. E is a rectangular projection or flap at the top of the strip, which forms about three-eighths of a square. The projection E is inclined at an angle of forty-five degrees toward the projection D andis arranged at one end of the strip. The heavy dotted lines in Fig. 4 show where the main portion of the blank is folded. These dotted lines are numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4, and they extend diagonally in zigzag form, like a letter W, across the sheet or strip A, all the lines being of equal length and forming an- 'gles of ninety degrees.
The square part of the blank formed by the lines 2 and 3 and the sides 5 and 6 of the triangular projection B constitutes the bottom F of the purse.,
The triangular end portions 7 and 8 of the sheet A outside the lines 1 and 4 constitute the bottom-closing flaps, and the remaining parts of the blank constitute the top of the purse. The blank is first folded on the line 2 and then upon the line 3, so that the portions of squares which form the top of the purse come over one another and over the square bottom F. The flaps 7 and 8'are then folded under the bottom F, thereby forming a square receptacle, said flaps being bent on the lines 1 and 4, and these flaps are then secured in any approved manner to the bottom F, such as by adhesive material. If new the purse is pressed between the thumb and fingers of the left hand along the vertical diagonal of the square bottom F, as shown in Fig. 2, the flap E can be pushed inside the purse,
as shown, if it is not already on the inside of it, and under flap D, and the flap D can then be pressed by the thumb of the right hand into the interior of the purse. The purse is now flattened between the fingers and thumb and takes the position shown in Fig. 1, being held closed by the flaps-Dand E. In order to open the purse, it is pressed between the thumb and fingers, as shown in Fig. 2. This disen gages the flap D, and the flap E can easily be raised, so that coins can be inserted or removed. I For the purpose of making the closure of the purse more sure spring-catch members g g are secured to the overlapping portions of the top of the purse and are pressed into engagement with each other. These spring-catch members are of the approved kind commonly used as glove-fasteners.
The remaining figures of the drawings show various applications of this invention. The top parts of the tobacco-pouch, bag, and other similararticles are substantially the same as the parts of the coin-purse; but, as will be seen by reference to Fig. 10, a long narrow strip H takes the place of the triangular portion 13. The portion B is not required, because it ordinarily forms a portion of the bottom of the purse, and the strip H affords a means for attaching the closing-neck to the body of the pouch I or bag J.
When a coin-purse is to be provided with gussets 'i, as shown in Figs. 11 and 12, its blank has additional folds, as shown, in order to form such gussets; but otherwise it is the same as hereinbefore described.
A double purse opening at top and bottom can be formed from the-blank shown in Fig.
bottom, with the projections 13 left out.
13. This blank is the same as two of the blanks shown in Fig. 4 arranged bottom to The projections B are not required, as their functions are performed reciprocally by the middle parts of the sheet of material, which are reinforced by having a square plate or sheet (not shown) secured to them after the purse is complete In making a coin-purse it is preferable to use a lining K of leather or other similar flexible material and to provide the sheet or strip A with additional flaps. A flap 12 is formed on the top edge of the strip between the flaps E and D, and a flap 13 is formed on the top edge of the strip on the other side of the flap D from the flap E. These flaps 12 and 13 are bent over the edge of the lining to reinforce its edge and are secured to the lining by adhesive material, as shown in Fig. 5. The sheet A is covered with adhesive material 14 where marked with dots in Fig. 6 and is secured to the lining by such adhesive material. The 'flap E of the sheet A has small flaps 15 at its edges, which are turned down on and secured to the flap E of the sheet A, so as not to inclose the lining K. The flap D of the sheet A has small flaps 16 at its edges, which are folded down on the said flap in a similar manner to the flaps 15. The flaps B, 7, and 8 of the strip A and its lining are not secured together by adhesive material before the blank is folded into the form of a purse. When suitably folded, the flaps 7 and 8 of sheet A are inserted or interleaved between the two fiaps B of the said sheet and its lining, and all the said flaps are then socured by adhesive material.
In the modification shown in Figs. 14 and 15 flaps D and E are used instead of the flaps D and E. The flaps D and E are the same as the flaps D and E, except for having convex edges 20 and 21, respectively, on one side instead of having straight edges. By
making the flaps in this manner-they lock themselves when slipped into place, and the bag or package cannot be opened without cutting or tearing it or its flaps. This form of the device is useful for holding certain proprietary articles, as the packages containing them cannot be refilled with inferior goods and reclosed, so as to look like original packages.
Instead of first folding the blank shown in Fig. 4 upon the line 2 and then upon the line .3 it may be first folded upon the lines 1 and 4 and then upon the lines 2 and 3. By folding the blank in this manner the end flaps 7 and 8 come above the bottom F instead of under it, and when secured to the bottom by adhesive material a neater effect is produced.
I do not confine, myself to a square receptacle, as shown, as the receptacle or closingpiece may be oblong. When the receptacle is oblong, the folds 1, 2, 3, and 4 are inclined, so that they appear like an Italic letter W. It is, however, essential that the two flaps D and E be widely separated, and the space between them should not be less than the length of the flap D where it joins onto the sheet or strip.
What I claim is- 1. Aclosing devicefor a receptacle, formed of a sheet of flexible material provided with four folds which extend diagonally across it, a closing-flap at the top of the sheet adjacent to the meeting ends of the two middle folds, and a second closing-flap projecting from one end portion of the top of the sheet, the said two flaps being widely separated.
2. A receptacle formed of a sheet of flexible material provided with four folds which extend diagonally across it, a triangular flap projecting from the middle part of the bottom of the sheet, a closing-flap at the top of the sheet adjacent to the meeting ends of the two middle folds, and a second closing-flap projecting from one end portion of the top of the sheet, the said two closing-flaps being widely separated.
3. A closing device for a receptacle, formed of a single sheet or strip of flexible material, provided with four folds extending diagonally across it in zigzag form, a triangular flap at its top edge extending in one direction from the middle of the strip, and a rectangular flap projecting at. the other end portion of the top of the said strip from the said triangular flap and inclined toward it, substantially as set forth.
4. A receptacle formed of a single sheet or ,strip of flexible material, provided with four folds extending diagonally across it in zigzag form, said strip having a triangular projection at the middle part of its bottom edge which forms one-half of the bottom of the receptacle, and having two flaps at its top edge, substantially as set forth.
5. A closing device forareceptacle, formed of an outer sheet or strip, and an inner linedges which form one-half of the bottom ofv the receptacle, and having two flaps at their top edges, and the said outer sheet having also flaps at its top edge which inclose portions of the top edge of the said lining-sheet adjacent to its two aforesaid flaps, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
