VANITY CASE Filed March 10, 1934 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 iii/41:51
Patented Dec. 4, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application March 10,
5 Claims.
My invention relates to vanity cases and has for its object to provide a device of this character which is attractive and ornamental in appearance and embodies novel features in the construction for conveniently holding the various cosmeteics employed in the make-up of the face.
A further object of the invention is to provide a vanity case in the form of a clothed figure having a slidable drawer for holding cosmetics which is automatically ejected to expose the cosmetics when desired.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of the above-mentioned character which is simple and durable in construction, eflicient in operation and inexpensive to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part .of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a front elevation view of the case,
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same,
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view, showing the drawer in ejected position,
Fig. 4 is a transverse section taken on line 44 of Fig. 3,
Fig. 5 is a transverse section taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 3,
Fig. 6 is a transverse section taken on line 66 of Fig. 2,
Fig. '7 is a detail section taken on line '7'7 of Fig. 2, and,
Fig. 8 is a detail section taken on line 8-8 of Fig. 2.
In the drawings, wherein for the purpose or" illustration, I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 denotes the case in its entirety which is designed to simulate the clothed figure of a girl. The lower portion of the case is of flat elongated shape in cross section having an opening 6 in the end thereof to receive the drawer 7 which is slidably mounted in the lower portion of the case. The drawer is automatically ejected from the case by the flat coil spring 8 disposed between the inner end of the drawer and wall 9 secured to the bottom of the longitudinal compartment 10 formed in the upper portion of the case. The sides of the drawer at its inner end are provided with rearwardly extending catches 11 having apertures 12 and secured to the inner side walls of the case are spring latches 13 having projecting lugs '14 adapted to engage the apertures 12 of the 1934, Serial No. 714,905
catches 11 when the drawer is pushed inwardly, thereby holding the drawer in retracted position, against the tension of the spring 8. .The spring latches 13 are provided with finger pieces 14 which project through openings 15 in the sides of the case and by depressing the finger pieces the latches 13 are released, permitting the drawer under the action of the spring 8, to eject the drawer from the case. The catches 11 are provided with laterally extending lugs 16 which contact with the inwardly directed flanges 1'7 at the end of the case, thereby limiting the forward movement of the drawer. The drawer is divided by the longitudinal partition 18 to form parallel compartments 19 and 2G to receive the cakes of rouge and powder, 21 and 22, respectively. The upper side edges of the compartment 20 are slightly off-set, as at 23, to receive the cover 24 which extends through the slot 24 in the rear end of the drawer and is fixedly connected to the wall 9, by the bracket 25. Thus, it is seen that as the drawer moves forwardly, the compartment 20 is automatically uncovered. A mirror 26 mounted in a frame 27 covers the top of the drawer and is hingedly connected to the rear end of the drawer by the hinge 28. When the drawer is ejected, a trigger 29 extending upwardly from the rear edge of the frame 2'? is adapted to engage the down turned flange 30 at the end of the case, whereby the mirror is swung upwardly to the position shown in Fig. 3.
The head 31 of the figure is separated from the upper portion of the case on the line 32 and a lipstick holder 33 is secured to the lower end of the head by the threaded stem 34. The holder 33 is adapted to be inserted in the compartment 10, whereby the head is removably connected to the case. The cup 35 supporting the lipstick in the holder has a lug 36 movable in the slot 37 of the holder, to permit the lipstick to be projected from the holder for use.
A ring 38 is connected to the upper end of the case by chains 39, providing a convenient means for carrying the case.
In use, the device is attractive in appearance and conveniently carries the cosmetics necessary to make-up the face. By holding the device in the palm of the hand and depressing the finger pieces 14, the latches 13 are released and the drawer 7 is automatically ejected by the spring 8. As the drawer moves forward, the compartment 20 is uncovered and the mirror 26 is swung upwardly to an operative position. To use the lipstick the head 31 is removed and serves as a handle for holding the lipstick holder 33.
After using, the lipstick holder 33 is inserted in the compartment 10 and the drawer '7 is pushed inwardly until the catches engage the spring latches which hold the drawer retracted until released.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that certain changes in the shape, size and arrangement of the parts may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim;
1. A vanity case comprising a substantially flat casing, a drawer slidably mounted in the lower portion of said casing, a mirror covering said drawer hingedly connected to the rear edge thereof, a spring for ejecting said drawer from said casing, a trigger associated with said mirror adapted to swing said mirror upwardly when said drawer is ejected and releasable means for holding said drawer within said casing.
2. A vanity case comprising a substantially flat casing, a drawer slidably mounted in the lower portion of said casing and adapted to be projected beyond the end thereof. A mirror covering said drawer hingedly connected to the rear edge thereof, a spring for ejecting said drawer from said casing, a trigger associated with said mirror adapted to contact with the end of said casing when the drawer is ejected whereby said mirror is swung upwardly, catches extending from the rear end of said drawer, and spring latches engageable with said catches to secure said drawer within said casing.
3. A vanity case comprising a substantially fiat casing, a drawer slidably mounted in said casing adapted to be projected beyond one end of the casing, a spring for ejecting said drawer, a mirror covering said drawer hingedly connected to the rear end of said drawer and a trigger extending from the rear edge of said mirror adapted to contact with the end of said casing to swing the mirror upwardly and uncover the drawer when the drawer is moved forwardly.
4. A vanity case comprising a substantially flat casing having an opening in one end, a drawer slidably mounted in said casing adapted to be projected beyond the open end thereof, a spring for ejecting said drawer, a compartment in said drawer, a cover connected at one end to the inner rear wall of said casing and extending through a slot in the rear wall of said compartment, whereby the compartment is covered by said cover when the drawer is pushed in the casing.
5. A vanity case comprising a substantially flat casing having an opening in one end, a drawer slidably mounted in said casing adapted to be projected beyond the open end thereof, a spring for ejecting said drawer, a compartment in said drawer having guideways along its longitudinal sides and a cover movable in the guideways of said compartment having its rear end extending through a slot in the rear end of said drawer and connected to the inner rear wall of said casing.
