Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
rIhis invention consists in constructing a trunk, with semicircular or rounded corners or ends, bent in such form, out of one or more pieces of wood, whereby a trunk of greaterstrength than usual iS obtained.
The drawings represent a trunk constructed according to my invention, with its main part and lid formed each .out of two pieces of Wood, A A A A'.
These pieces may be bent in anysuitable way by the aidof a machine-or otherwise, and they may' be se-p cured at their ends by a mortise-andLtenon joint, a, or by dovet-ailing, halving, or by meta-l dowels, the joints beingatthe ti'ont and rear of the truuk.
The bottom B of the trunk, I design to tit into thcv lower edge of the main part by a rebate, as shown by the dotted lines b, and the top O, I design to llt into the lid in a similar manner, as shown in the dot-ted lines c. This will add greatly to the strength of the trunk, preventing its sides and the top and bottom .v from being pressed in.
By this mode of construction, a trunk is rendered far more durable than usual. The sharp or angular corners of the ordinary trunks are very liable to be broken, and they generally fail at those points.
