Patented Mar. 20, 1951 LUGGAGE FRAME LOCKED BY SLEDABLE HANDLE Leo Stein, Chicago, Ill. Application July 20, 1945, Serial No. 606,084
9 Claims This invention relates to improvements in luggage frames and particularly to improve ments in means for looking a bag in open or closed position.
Among the objects of the invention is to provide means for looking a bag in closed position by a sliding movement of one portion of a look ing mechanism relatively to another.
Another object of the invention is to provide a reciprocating locking mechanism for looking a bag in closed position, which may be operated by means of the carrying handle of the bag.
Another object of the invention is to provide for an automatic lock for holding a bag in wide open position.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent or will be alluded to specifically hereinafter in the specification wherein a preferred embodiment of the invention is described.
In the drawings,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one type of luggage to which the present invention may be applied, showing a frame made in accordance with this invention installed in such l gage;
. Figure 2 is a side elevation of a luggage frame 5 made in accordance with this invention;
- frame in closed locked position and attached to the side walls of the bag;
Figure 6 is a bottom plan view similar to Figure 5, but showing the adjoining parts of the frame in unlocked and slightly open position;
Figure 7 is a view partly in section on the line VII-ViI of Figure 2;
s Figure 8 is an end elevation of the frame members as viewed from the left end of Figure 2; and
Figure 9 is a view partly in section, from'the right side of Figure 8, showing the frame members in open locked position.
Referring now to the drawings, a bag [0 is shown in Figure 1 equipped with a luggage frame made in accordance with this invention.
The frame comprises two rigid members, preferably made of some lightweight metal or other material suitable for this purpose, these members H and 52 having downwardly bent ends at opposite ends of the bag which are pivotally connected with each other by means hereinafter provided with a locking shoulder 35.
2 described. As seen in Figure 1, the material of the bag, usually leather, will be engaged in looking grooves provided in the frame members, as shown in Figure '7, and firmly clamped therein.
The marginal edges of the side Walls of the bag are indicated as is and M. When the frame members are in closed locked position, a tongue on one will be engaged with a groove E6 on the other to form a tight closure at the top of the bag.
The pivotal connection between the two frame members H and i2 'is accomplished by providing at each end of the frame the hinge plates l i and I8 and loosely pivoting the ends of the frame members to these plates by rivets l9 and 25, such as are shown in Figure 1. Each hinge plate comprises an end wall and a flange such as 22 extending inwardly therefrom. As shownin Figures '7 and 8, the extremities of the two frame members extend within the area bounded by the flange 22, when the bag is closed.
The gusset 23 shown in Figure 1 at one end of the bag is locked into the frame members in the same way as are the side walls l3 and M, as shown in Figure 7. The margins of an opening in the gusset may be engaged snugly with the outside of the flange 22. It will be understood that the gusset at the opposite end of the bag, though not shown, is identical. in construction.
For locking the bag in open position, I provide means whereby when the marginal edges of the opening on a bag are rotated to wide open position, a locking mechanism will automatically come into play and hold the bag open until intentionally manually released to permit closing. To this end there is secured to the member l2 a pair of locking cam plates 24 and 25, rigidly secured thereto in any suitable manner, as for example by the screws 26 and 2? shown in Figure '7. The cam plate 24 is provided with a curved slot 28 through which the rivet 20 will slide when the bag is being opened.
Since the two locking cam plates 24 and 25 are rigidly. secured to the frame member 52, they will rotate with that member as it is being rotated between closed and open position, thus carrying the curved slot 28 in plate 24 and a corresponding one (not shown) in plate 25 past the loose pivot pins 25 and 20' through which the member H is loosely pivoted to the hinge plates I! and [3, respectively.
Each of these locking cam plates 24 and 25 is Figure 9 shows how that shoulder is formed on the plate 24, there being a tapered surface 3| adjoining the locking shoulder 39. As the two frame members are rotated from closed to wide open position, the plates 24 and 25 are rotated along with the frame member [2, while the end portions of the frame member I I will rotate until they snap in back of the shoulder 38 on plate 24 and the corresponding shoulder (not shown) on plate 25. It will be observed from Figure 9 that the pivot pin or rivet 2c is sufiiciently longer than. the thickness of the members through which it passes that a little end play is possible. Hence it is an easy matter to spring the cam plates and the frame member l l relatively to each other. to bring about a disengagement of the locking shoulders to en.- able the bag to be closed.
For locking the bag closed, I provide a member which may be reciprocated longitudinally. of the closed edges of the opening of the bag whereby one or more slotted members will engage a cor responding number of pins to thereby lock the opposite edges: of the ;opening together. The closurelock for. the bag is preferably constructed so thatyit' may-conveniently be operated by a handle 40..
Thehandlejii is; connected with a plate 6! which is;slidably mounted on top of the frame member [2,. Any suitable means for connection ofthe handle to this slidable plate may be utilized.,so long as the connection will enable the plate to be reciprocated by means of the handle. Thehandle may be pivotally mount-ed so that it can; be. rotated downwardly to either side or, as indicated in the drawings, it may be mounted in a rigid position. In this constructionv I employ a pair of posts embracingthe sides of thehandle at each end thereof, one pair of these posts being; shown in Figure '7 and marked 62 and it. Post Z2 is secured rigidly to the plate 4!. Likewise'post 33.: is secured rigidly to the plate :il in any suitable manner, for example by-a horizontal pin M, an extensionof that post passing downwardly through an elongated slot 5? in frame member l2 and being secured by a screw 53 to another sliding plate 45 which is spaced below the member 12 by means of spacing washers 4E.
The underside ofthe frame member H is provided with a plurality of posts whose heads arespaced somewhat. below the bar li so that locking lugs-may be slid underneath these posts and around their shanks. lugs 48, shaped as shown, are secured in any. suitablemanner to the sliding plate 15, for example, by screws 48 When the handle 46. is reciprocated to the right as Figures 2, 5 and 6 are viewed, the locking lugsJiB will become disenu gaged from the post 4?. But when the bag is closed-and it isrdesired to lockit closed, the handlemay. be moved toward the left, and asthe plates 4! and 45 are slid toward the left the lockinglugs la will becomeengaged under the heads of the posts 47. Asshown inFigures. 4 and 6, two cam surfaces are provided on each locking lug to provide a'snug engagement, the cam. surface 49 within the'slot on the lug tending to draw-1 the-opposite sides of the bag together, while the cam surface Sdshown in Figure 4 provides a wedging action.
As may be observed in, Figure 3, the plate at may be provided with a latch 5i which, during locking movement of the device, will enter a lock 52 of ordinary construction and become releasably engaged with a post provided on a latch button 53, the buttonand its post being urgedinto locking position by a springinot shown) and disengaged therefrom by pushing the button 53 out Accordingly locking of latching engagement with the latch 58. The details of construction of this lock do not form a part of this invention. As is customary with locks of this character, a key may be inserted at 54 and operated to prevent unauthorized release of the latch button 53.
To guide the plate 65 in its sliding movement, I provide a pair of posts or round headed screws such-as-EE mounted in themember. l2 .and extending through slots 58 in the plate 45.
Slots necessary to permit movement of the extension of post 43 through the frame member l2 and a corresponding post at the other end of the handle are of course provided. One of these slots is shown in Figure 7 and indicated as 57.
It will now be understood that I have provided a very simpleandieifective means for locking a bag either in open or closed position. While a preferredembodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described herein, it should be understood; that various; details .of construction may be varied through a-wide range without departing from the principles of-this invention and it is, therefore, not the purpose to limit thepatent granted hereon otherwisethan necessitated by the scope .of the appendedclaims.
