SPECIFICATION forming part ot' Lettera Patent N0. 766.917. dated August; 9, A1904i. Application tiled January 12, 1904. Serial No. 188.685. No model.)
or Hanging over an edge ot" the har A, thu-s g formingr a flange (i. the same preferably ex- 5f' zen ot' the United States. residing' at Bristol. f

My invention relates to an improvement in trunk-stava.
xo '.l `he object of my inventionis to improve the strain by direct thrust of sind shoulder and simplify the construction and operation of such devices.
.\ly invention will he detined in the claims terminating this spccilication; i5 The drawings accompanyiincr herewith represent my invention embodied in the forms now preferred by me.
Figure 1 shows one` forni of my .stay np- E plied to a trunk oi' like hinged device, and 2o Figs. f2 and Il each represent a sliglitl,\tliil`ei ent form of construction of stay.
The traint-stay which is the subject of my invention consists of two hars or plates which are employed to connectl the top or cover and z5 the body-of the trunk near the hinges, the object of this device being to hohl the top while in itsraised position.
My device consists, essentially.' of two hare," or plates A and B, which are pivotally con- 3o nectcd with each other by means of n pivot 1C l und by pivots C and l) at the opposite or free ends, respectively. with the trunk-body and the trunk top or cover. Une of the hars, as the bar A. extends beyond the common or 35 central pivot E a stitlicientdistance that it may be provided with a stop adapted to en- L gage the other bar, B, to' prevent tlieirswing'- ine; baclnvard and downward when the top is raised beyond a certain point. 'Ihn-s stop is 4o preferably so placed in relation to the pivot and the contacting surface upon the other har as to permit the two bars to swim,r until their common or central pivot-point passes the line connecting their outer pivot-points. 45 There are various ways in which the stop which limits the swinging of the parts may be conatrncted. ln Figs. 1 and 2 i have shown this stop as being formed by turning i i l i i l tendini.lr from the extended end ot' the har A backward soniedistanee. This llangc maybe permitted tocontact directly with the .straight edgrc ol' the har ll. forming an inclined aurbears, niid a shoulder Il', against which the end ot the llanee (l may he caused to hear', thus makingr it possible to transmit n portion of against the edge of the lianire. 6G
ln Fig. l the two bars A. and B are shown as connected by a pivot E, which permits no movement at the pivot except a swinging movement. In Fig. *2 one of the hars. as the, har li', is shown as havin;r a `slot F extending 65 transversely thereof" and receiving the pivot pin E. '.lhis` permits a certain lateral or transverse movement ot' the two bars at this point and facilitates` the swinging of the central pivot past the center line. 'i0
The construction lshown in Fig. 3 similar to that shown in Fig. '2. except that the stop isdill'erently formed. In this case the `atop is formed by punching,r upwardly a .small :section (.i' of the bar the saine being severed from 75 the har'ui-ion the line which contacts with the plate B?, but otherwise not being severed.
The stops shown prevent the sit-aya from swinging* baclnvard and downward beyond a certain position. and the swinging of thepivot 3 past the central line prevents thepossibility ofthe stay being buckled or lient upward and forward by thrust thereon` so that the cover cannot be lowered unless the stay is iirst positively lifted upward at its center, 3S thus preventing accidental fall of the cover. Pressure of the cover forwzml will not alone double up the stay.. :la it must tirst be lifted until the central pivot passes the center line. All of the pivots of the stay should be suili- 9 ciently loose toswiiu,lr freely. so that when the top is'swung upward until the pivots are in line the center pivot will, as soon as the strain is released., drop down by gravity alone until its pivot passes the center line, thus locking the 9S toggle.
