J. A. WALSH. V GHMENT FOR TRAVELING BAGS, 8w. APPLIOATION FILED PEB.6,1907.
PROTECTIVE ATT'A UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH A. WALSH, OF SYRACUSE, NEW YORK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed February 6, 1907, Serial No. 356,035.
Patented April 23, 1907.
. ing a sound when the article is lifted from its forations for the reception of rivets dd place of rest, and serving to attract the attention of the owner or other person having the article in charge, so as to prevent its be ing maliciously taken by another person.
To that end the invention consistsessentially of a protective attachment composed of a sonorous flexible plate applied to the bottom of the article and adapted to be pressed out of its normal shape by pressure on the exterior of the bottom and resilient to its normal shape when relieved from said pressure and in its resilience producing a sound.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 represents a side view of a traveling-bag provided with the sonorous plate; Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the bag; Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the lower portion of the bag and illustrating more clearly the construction of the plateand its attachment to the bag Fig. 4 is a bottom view of a bag showing a plurality of sonorous plates of modified form applied to the corners of the bottom and Fig. 5 is a fragmentary side view of a corner portion of a bag with the modified form of plate applied thereto.
A denotes the traveling-bag which may be of any well known style and is provided with the usual rectangular shaped bottom a.
B denotes the protective attachment consisting of a flexible plate composed of suitable sheet metal and having a rectangular shape to cover the entire bottom a of the bag, and which is capable of producing sound when the said plate is subjected to flexure, as will be shortly explained. This plate -B- has its margins deflected upwardly as shown at b and terminated in a horizontal flange cprovided with perfor securing the flange to the bottom a of the bag. The central or main portion e of said plate is normally bulged from the bottom a as clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 3. By reason of the said plate being flexible, it is obvious that by placing the bag upon a floor or other hard supporting surface, the weight of the bag will cause the bulge of the plate to be depressed to a flat condition as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 3.
In case the bag is taken from its place of rest, it is evident that the relief of pressure on the bottom of the plate will allow the central or main portion of the plate to spring from its'depressed or flat condition so as to assume its normal or bulged condition, which action of the plate creates a sound. When the owner of a traveling-bag, thus equipped, places the bag near athand upon the floor or other hard supporting surface, it is obvious that he or she readily detect the attempt of another person to carry away the bag through theft or mistake.
I do not limit myself to the form of plate shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3 of the drawings, inasmuch as the said plate may be of various shapes capable of producing the required effect. Neither do I wish to confine myself to the manner of attaching the plate to the bottom of the traveling-bag. It is essential however to provide sufficient space between the bottom and plate to allow the latter to yield to proper degree.
A modified form of plate is illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5 of the drawings, in which are shown a plurality of plates BB applied to the corners of the bottom a. When corner-plates are employed, I prefer to form the plates with round bulges.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A protective attachment for travelingbags and analogous articles, which attachment consists of a sonorous flexible plate pressed out of its normal shape by pressure on the exterior of the aforesaid article and re silient to its normal shape when relieved from said pressure and in its resilience producing a sound.
2. The combination with a traveling-bag or analogous article, of a sonorous plate attached in a bulged condition to the bottom of said article and yieldable toward a flat condition by pressure of the weight of said article upon its place of rest, and resilient to its bulged condition when relieved from said bag upon its place of rest, and resiling When pressure and by its resilience. producing a relievedfrom depression and thereby pro- 10' sound. ducing a sound.
