VANITY CASE Filed March 24J 193,2
Patented Oct. 17, 1933 PATENT OFFICE VANITY CASE Isabel Winslette, Chapel Hill, N. C. Applimmon March 24, .1932. serial No. 601,006
3 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in vanity cases, and has for its object to provide such a case which may be used as well in the dark as in daylight.
Another object of the invention is to provide a vanity case having compartments for a mirror, comb, lipstick, powder, rouge and a light adapted to be thrown directly upon the mirror.
A further object of the invention is to provide a vanity case including a mirror, compacts, lipstick, etc., and being provided with a self-adjusting light.
With the above and such other objects in view as may hereinafter more fully appear, I have invented the device illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my device;
Figure 2 is a transverse section, with the top closed;
Figure 3 is a similar view the top being open;
Figure 4 is a longitudinal section;
Figure 5 is a perspective detail of a battery casing;
Figure 6 is a transverse section of a modification;
Figure 7 is an enlarged transverse section, illustrating a modification in the construction; and
Figure 8 is a. section on line 8-8 of Figure '7.
Like reference characters indicate like parts throughout the following specification, and in the several views in the drawing in which 1 indicates a vanity case and compact which consists of a preferably oblong box 2, having a similarly shaped top 3, within which is encased a mirror 4. 5 is a longitudinal division wall between which and the front wall is provided a compartment 6, for a comb 7. Spaced from the side wall 8 of the box, is another division wall 9, providing a compartment for a lip stick 10. Placed intermediate of the wall 9, and the side wall 11, of the box, is a compartment 12, formed by spaced apart walls 13 and 14, between which is pivoted a casing 15. This casing is longitudinally split, as at 17, on its upper side, to permit of the passage of the flashlight switch 18, which will also hold said switch in position for ready manipulation, and hold the flashlight from turning inthe casing.
The under wall 19 of member 15, extends beyond the bulls eye 20 of the ashlight, as at 21, and is provided adjacent its forward edge 22, with an annular groove 23, for the cord or ne chain 24, having one end fixed to wall 14, extending over the roller 25 in wall 13, and is secured to the end 26 of lever 27, pivoted at 28 to rear wall 29 of the box 2. Attached to the iiange 30 of the lid 4, is a chain 31, the other end of which is xed to the end of short arm 32 of the lever 27, whereby when the lid is (Cl. 24th-6145) raised the arm 32 is drawn up forcing the long arm 27. down, drawing down chain 24, which being drawn taut, raises the forward end 31 of casing 15 up upon its pivot 33, causing the bulls eye 20 todirect its rays `upon the mirror 4.
In the modification of Figure 6, I provide a leaf spring 34, one end of which is secured at 35 to the bottom wall 36 of case 36', with its free end 3'7 normally raised to hold up the end 38 of the flashlight. When the top 3 is pressed down, it forces in said .end 38, against the tension of spring 34, and the Same is held down by the fastening of said top.
Having described my invention that which I claim to be new and desire to procure by Letters Patent is:
1. An illuminating vanity case comprising a lower box-like casing divided by transverse partitions into separated compartments, a llight projector pivotally mounted in one of said compartments, a lid having a mirror for its inner surface and hinged to the casing, means rendered operative by opening the lid to raise the light projector into operative position to direct a beam of light to the mirror, the light projector returning to its lower inoperative position in its compartment, when the lid is again closed.
2. An illuminating vanity case comprising a lower box-like casing divided by transverse partitions' into separated compartments, a light projector, pivotally mounted in one of said compartments, a lid having a mirror for its inner surface and hinged to the casing, a spring tending to move the light projector upwardly about its pivot to a point above the edges of the casing, to direct its beam to the mirror, the lid when closed holding the light projector in its lower -inoperative position.
3. An illuminating vanity case comprising a lower box-like casing divided by transverse partitions into separated compartments, a light projector pivotally mounted in one of said comlpartments, a lid having a mirror for its inner surface and hinged to the casing, a pull cordattached to the light projector and having operative connection to the lid to raise the projector to a point where its light beam will be directed to the mirror when the lid is opened, the closing of the lid` permitting the projector to descend to its inoperative position.
