TOlLET-RECEPTACLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 25, 1907.
Application filed September 29,1906. Serial No. 336.790.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HOMER EMERSON, a citlzen of the United States, residing at Milton, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Im rovements in Toilet-Receptacles, of whic the following is a specification.
This invention consists of a simple and novel form of toilet box or receptacle particularly designed to conveniently contain toilet powder and toilet paste in such a way as to permit of ready ejection of the toilet preparation therefrom.
The invention resides particularly in the peculiar construction of combination receptacle and the special means embodied for readily removing the contents thereof in order to use the same.
For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for efiecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a toilet receptacle embodying the invention; and, Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the followin description and indicated in all the views 0% the drawings by the same reference characters.
Specifically describing the invention, the numeral 1 desi nates a toilet receptacle, the same bein div1ded into two compartments 2 and 3. T e compartment 2 is separated by a bottom 4 from the compartment 3, the bottom of Said compartment 3 being indicated at 5 and constituting the bottom of the receptacle 1. The bottom 4 of the compart ment 2 is therefore virtually an intermediate partition. The compartment 2 is adapted to contain powder or a similar preparation for toilet purposes and at the upper end of the receptacle 1 is provided a small outlet spout 6 having a lateral Opening 7 through which the contents of the compartment 2 are adapted to pass in being removed from the receptacle. A suitable cap 13 may be used to close the spout 6, if desired. Arranged in the compartment 3 of the receptacle 1 is a collapsible tube 8 somewhat of the type which is customarily used at the present time for vending paste or similar preparations, said tube 8 being made of pliable metal or the like. Extending from the outer portion of the tube 8 and passing through an opening in the parti- 1310114 is an outlet stem 9, the upper terminal of which is located at the spout 6 or outlet of the receptacle 1.
As shown most clearly in the drawings the cap 13 for the spout 6 comprises a closure or cap having the opening 14 adapted to register with the opening 7 of the spout 6 and provided with a second opening 15 adapted to register with the opening at the upper end of the outlet stem 9. When the opening 14 registers with the opening 7, the opening 15 of the cap 18 is out of register with the upper end of the hollow stem 9. It will thus be apparent that when the closure or cap 13 is so arranged as to permit of egress of the preparation in the compartment 2, the opening 15 is arranged to prevent ejection of the preparation in the receptacle 8. There is thus no liability of the preparation in the compartment 2 being accidentally fed therefrom when it is only desired to expel the material in the receptacle 8. A key is utilized to wind or coil the body of the tube 8 from the bottom upward in order that the paste or preparation in the tube may be ejected therefrom and caused to pass from the receptacle 1 through the stem 9. The key. 10 embodies a suitable finger piece 11 at one side of the receptacle and the body of the key extends through opposite vertical slots 12 formed at opposite sides of the receptacle 1 and the compartment3, said slots 12 guide the key 10 in its vertical movement and effect a proper working of the key under all conditions of service. The key 10 is affixed to the bottom of the tube 8 in any substantial way such as by being provided with a slot receiving the lower edge or extremity of the tube. If desired, the bottom 5 of the receptacle 1 may be removable to admit of replacing the tubes 8 with another tube having a fresh supply of toilet preparation.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. In a device of the character described, the combination of a receptacle, a partition dividing the receptacle into two compartments, the uppermost of said compartments having an outlet at the upper end of the receptacle, a collapsible tube arranged in the lower of said compartments and having an outlet stem leading therefrom through the partition and terminating at the outlet, and means operable from the exterior of the receptacle for expelling the contents of the collapsible tube.
2. In a device of the character described, the combination of a receptacle subdivided into compartments, one of said compartments being provided with an outlet spout having a discharge opening in one side thereof while the opposite compartment has an outlet passage communicating eccentrically with the before mentioned outlet spout, and a cap fitting over the outlet spout and normally closing the outlet opening in the side of the spout and the outlet passage, the said cap being formed with openings designed to register with either of the outlets when it is desired to remove the contents of the receptacle.
- 3. In a toilet receptacle of the class described embodying separate compartments,
one of said compartments being provided with an outlet at one end, a receptacle arranged in the other compartment, means for reventing displacement of the receptacle last mentioned, an outlet stem leading from the last mentioned receptacle to the outlet aforesaid, and a closure common to both the outlet and the outlet passage, substantially as set forth.
4, In a toilet receptacle or box of the class described, the combination of an intermediate partition separating said receptacle into two compartments, the uppermost of said compartments having an outlet at the upper end of the receptacle, a collapsible tube arranged in the lowermost of said compartments and having an outlet stem leading therefrom through the partition and terminating at the outlet, and a key passing through a side of the receptacle and adapted to twist the collapsible tube in order to expel the contents thereof.
5. In a toilet receptacle or boX of the class described, the combination of an intermediate partition separating said receptacle into two compartments, the uppermost of said compartments having an outlet at the upper end of the receptacle, a collapsible tube arranged in the lowermost of said compartments and having an outlet stem leading therefrom through the partition and terminating at the outlet, and. a key passing through a side of the receptacle and adapted to twist the collapsible tube in order to expel the contents thereof, the opposite sides of the receptacle being formed with Vertical slots receiving opposite portions of the key to direct the same in its movement, said key being provided with a finger piece at one end thereof for manipulation of the same.
In testimony whereof I aHiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
