CASE, BAG, PORTFOLIO, AND THE LIKE.
Patented Sept. 4, 1906. 1906. Serial No. 326,499.
l.To @ZZ whom, t Wawy concern:
Be it known that I,l CnAELEs JOSEPH WIN- TER, artist, a subject of the King ofGreat Britain and Ireland, residing at 20 St. Georges avenue7 Tufnell Park, London, N., England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cases, Bags, Portfolios, and the Like, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cases, bags, portfolios, or the like, and more particularly to cases or the like employed for carrying masonic or other insignia, the object being Ito provide a form of case in which the insignia, especially the gauntlets, can be arranged in as to obviate creasing when the case is closed, suchcase also being of such a nature that when opened the apron and out flat ready for use. The` case is obviously also applicable for carrying other articles than insignia.
In order that the invention may be understood, reference will be made to the accompanying drawings, wherein` Figures l and 2 are respectively end and side elevations of a case according to the invention in its closed condition. Figs. 3 and 4 are respectively a plan and'cross-sectional elevation of the case in its opened condition. Fig. 5 is a detail hereinafter referred to. Figs. 6 and 7 are respectively elevation and plan of an alternative form of gauntlet or ike support.
In carrying out the invention according to one Inode and as illustrated a case is made with a rigid base or bottom a, two curved sides b c, and rigid ends d e. The sides b c are hinged at their lower edges to the base and when closed they meet at the apex or top, the side b, however, overlapping the other side to a more or less extent. The ends of the sides are also provided with flaps f and g. Th be fastened to the other side or flap c by any suitable fastenings-such as, for example, snap-fastenings h h and a lock i.
Within the case and between the two ends d eis a cross-bar 7c, preferably of semicircular cross-section and of the tapered form in plan, as shown in Fig. 3. This bar is intended to support the gauntlets or cuffs in order that when the case is closed such gauntlets will not be crushed or creased. Gauntlets are indicated in position by dotted lines at Z in the drawings. The bar 7c also acts as a strut for e overlapping side or flap b is adapted to' the ends. The cross-bar 7 maybe detachable to facilitate insertion of the gauntlets, and it may be held in any suitable manner. For instance, it may be hinged at one end m, while the other end is provided with a spring and ball snap rnJ o, adapted to snap into a socket on the end e. This is shown in detail in Fig. 5. The bar c may, if desired, be divided -and both parts hinged to the respective ends d e and adapted to snap together or 'be secured in the middle, for instance, as `shown in Figs. 6 and 7, where the bar is Ashown as made of wire. The two halves {hinged at m m are fitted with a fastening of ,lany convenient type, that shown comprising a socket t on the end of one half adapted to receive the turned end u of the other half. The ends m m are bent, as at o, and cross-ties w are provided to stiffen or prevent spreading of the bars or supports, the ends being hinged by ball or other hinges to plates zr, secured to the rigid ends d e of the case. The bar- 7c, as before stated, is preferably of the form indicated in plan in Figs. 3 say, tapered from each middle-so as to conform shape of the shifting.
The apron or collar or other insignia are laid upon the parts a b c, when they are opened out, as in Figs. 3 and 4, and when in position are protected by a cover sheet or apron g, which may be detachable or permanently secured at one end r and temporarily secured at the other end by means of snap or other fasteners s. A pocket p for papers or other articles may also be provided. The case is fittedr with a suitable handle, as shown. It will thus be clear that the apron, collar, or other ilat insignia can be readily laid in the case without being folded to any undesirable extent, that the gauntlets can also be carried intact without being crushed or pressed, and that, further, even when the case is closed none of the articles are crushed or creased.
It will be understood that any suitable material may be employed for the case, such as leather or canvas, and that the case may be lined with velvet or other suitable material. Similarly, the shape of the ends d e and the corresponding shape of the iiaps or sides c may be varied as well as the other details to suit the shape or type of insigniaor other articles to be inclosed without creasing. 4
Having thus described my invention, what and 7-that is to end toward the somewhat to the gauntlets to prevent them IOO Iclaim as new, and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is-
1. A case for insignia and other purposes comprising a rigid base and ends, sides hinged to the base, and cross-bars hinged to the ends and adapted to meet in the middle.
2. A case for insignia and other purposes comprising a rigid base and ends, sides hinged to the base, one side overlapping the other when closed, end flaps on both of said sides, a divided cross-bar extending between and hinged to the ends, and a fastening between the halves of said bar, substantially as and for the purposes hereinbefo're set forth.
3. A case for insignia and other purposes comprising a rigid base and ends, sides hinged to the base, one side overlapping the other when closed, end flaps on both of said sides, a divided cross-bar hinged to the ends of the case and adapted to meet, and a cover-sheet attached to one side and adapted to be temporarily fastened to the other.
4. A case for insignia and other purposes comprising a rigid base and ends, sides hinged to the base, one side overlapping the other when closed, end flaps on both of saidzsides', a divided cross-bar hinged to the ends of the case the halves of said bar consisting of tapering wire frames, a socket on the end of one frame and an inturned end on the other adapted to engage in said socket, substantially as hereinbefore set forth.
5. A case for insignia and other purposes comprising a rigid base and ends, sides hinged to the base and adapted to be laid out, a coversheet permanently attached to one side eX-v tending to and adapted to be temporarily fastened to the other, a divided cross-bar hinged to the ends of the case, and a fastening between the meeting ends of the halves, said halves tapering toward their meeting ends, substantially as hereinbefore set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
