2 Claims.
This invention relates to a functionally and structurally improved container, particularly designed for packaging cosmetics such as face powder, rouge, lipstick and the like.
It is an object of the invention to provide a container of this character which is pleasing in appearance and which lends itself readily to decoration, while at the same time being fabricated from non-metallic materials not essential to the war effort.
Another object is that of providing a unit of this type which can be inexpensively manufactured by relatively unskilled labor and by quantity production methods, and which will render service over long periods of time when handled with ordinary care.
With these and other objects in mind, refer ence is had to the attached sheet of drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective plan view of one type of container embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the container shown in Fig. 1 With the top section removed to show the interior construction and with one of the hinge portions in partial cross section;
Fig. 3 is a cross section taken through the container shown in Fig. l along the line 3-3 looking in the direction of the arrows;
Fig. 4 is a further cross section of the container shown in Fig. 1 taken along the line 4-4 looking in the direction of the arrows;
Fig. 5 is an exploded View of the tray sub-assembly of the container shown in the preceding views; and
Fig. 6 is a plan View of said tray sub-assembly in assembled condition.
In the several views, there is shown at 'l and 8, the two complementary body portions comprising the lower and upper sections of the container. In the container illustrated, a generally rectangular shape has been employed. Also, both the upper and lower body portions are outwardly convexed or domed to reinforce the container and to present a pleasing contour and also to provide interior space, as will be hereinafter pointed out. Flat edge panels 9 and I0 forming marginal reinforcing flanges may be provided in both body portions, and may extend completely around the same. These body portions may be formed of paper, fibreboard, cardboard, plastic or any other suitable material that has sulicient inherent rigidity to maintain its shape without ready deformation.
Secured to the inner faces of the border panels 9 and I0 respectively, are spacer strips II and I2 which extend around the circumference of the container. These strips in turn have secured to their faces, additional strips I 3 and I4 which may be slightly thinner than strips I I and I2 and may give the surface of the container where they are applied, a finished appearance. This not only forms a laminated wall structure which is advantageous from the standpoint of convenience and economy in fabrication, but provides a reinforced structure especially adapted to make a strong rigid container capable of withstanding hard usage when constructed of brous or other nonmetallic materials. A mirror I5 or other suitable reflective surface can be positioned in the recess of the `upper container body portion formed by the doming thereof, and held in place by means of a bezel IS which is positioned between the outer body portion 8 and the inner facerof the base or strip I2. This bezel is preferably offset at Ita to form a shoulder against which the edge portions of the mirror rests. A filler Il may conveniently be placed behind the mirror so that the outer surface of the container does not tend to collapse against the mirror back. Likewise, further nllers I8 and I9 should be provided preferably in the bottom portion of the container for the same purpose.
The spacer strips I3 and I4 may be provided With registering openings 2l and 24 through which are threaded the hinge members 20 and 23. The latter are preferably formed of plastic or fibreboard and are cylindrical in shape with diagonally extending end edges 29o and 23a formed therein for ready application. The spacer strips I I and I2 may be formed with recesses 22 for partially accommodating the hinged members.
Turning now particularly to Figs. 5 and 6, there is shown the sub-tray assemblies comprising base portions 21 and 29, each of which have upturned end walls 25, 2l, and 28, 3i? respectively. Cooperating with said members are end strips 3I and 32; it being noted that all of said members heretofore described can be made of paper, cardboard or the like. Lugs 33 and 34 carried by oppo-site sides of the member 25, as well as lugs 35, 36, 3l and 38 carried between base 2S, and lugs 39 and 40 carried between end 2l, cooperate with openings 54-41, 55-49, 5l-5 respectively of the strips 3| and 32. Likewise, lugs 4I and 42 of the members 28, 43, and 45 of the member 29, and 44 and 46 of the member 30 cooperate with openings 58 and` 5I, 52, 59, 53 and 60 of the members 32 and 3|.
With the lugs assembled with their proper covassembly such as is powder puff operating openings, there is formed a tray sub shown in Fig. 6 with three compartments, the largest compartment forming a square to receive a cake of face powder 67 which may have been initially packaged in a receptacle 66, and a rouge cake 'i6 housed in a receptacle 69 may be positioned against the deck 29 of the compartment formed at the opposite end of the tray. The narrow space between the powder and rouge compartments may be utilized to receive a lipstick holder B3 which is preferably held in place by cooperation with the instruck portions Sl and 62 of the side walls 28 and 21 respectively. These in turn cooperate with -openings or indentations 64 and 65 in the sides of the lipstick holder 63 which are adjacent such portions 6| and 62. A 68 and a rouge puff 1| may also be provided, and carried in their respective compartments as shown in Fig. 4.
It is apparent from the foregoing, that among others, the primary objects of my invention have been achieved. Obviously, numerous re-arrangements of parts and changes in design might be resorted to, without in the least departing from the spirit of my invention.
I claim:
1. In a container, in combination, two complementary body portions each having a receiving compartment, side walls having inner surfaces surrounding said receiving compartments, a multicompartment tray positioned in the receiving cornpartment of one of said body portions and having two separate spaced tray units each having a oor member, each said floor member having upstanding walls forming bounds of the respective tray compartments, said tray having side panels connected to and spacing said tray units to provide an additional receiving compartment between adjacent said upstanding walls thereof, said panels and the outer of said upstanding walls being in close engagement with the inner surface of the receiving compartment in which the tray is received to hold it in operative position therein and extending outwardly therefrom so as to closely engage said inner surface of the other said receiving compartment to retain said body portions in cooperative closed relation.
2. In a container, in combination, two complementary body portions each having a receiving compartment, side walls having inner surfaces surrounding said receiving compartments, said body portions having oppositely outwardly domed parts and substantially flat marginal panels forming marginal reinforcing flanges, said walls including spacer strips attached together and t0 the respective panels to form a laminated wall structure, a multi-compartment tray positioned in the receiving compartment of one of said body portions and having two separate spaced tray units each having a floor member, each said floor member having upstanding walls forming bounds of the respective tray compartments, said tray having side panels connected to and spacing said tray units to provide an additional receiving compartment between adjacent said upstanding walls thereof, said panels and the outer of said upstanding walls being in close engagement with the inner surface of the receiving compartment in which the tray is received to hold it in operative position therein and extending outwardly therefrom so as to closely engage said inner surface of the other said receiving compartment to retain said body portions in cooperative closed relation ROBERT NYDEN.
