Specification of Letters Patent. i' Appiimion nieuwe rz, 1905. 'serai No. 265,635.
Patented Jan. 16,
To L55 whbm/ t may concern.: g Be it known that I, THOMAS I. HAMILTON,
l a citizen of the United States of America, and
` rea ily lifted out ofthe lid and returned l. pany a resident of city of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wardrobe-Trunks, of which the following is a specification..
-This invention relates to improvements in wardrobe-trunks, and it has for its object to simplify and reduce the cost of Vsuch trunks, to provide means whereby thestrain of the weight of the garments shall be taken loff the top are suspended, andso that said weight hall be supported by the walls of thetrunk, and to provide in the lid ofthe trunk a tray and sup orting devices, so that the tray may be thereto.
My invention also relates tothe several novel constructions and combinations ofy tained, as will more clearly appear from the description of the same hereinafter containe v v Referring to the drawings which accomthe specification to aid the description, Figure 1 is a front elevation of the trunk on end and with the lid open. Fi. 2 is a side elevation and section of the truril; on the line 2 2 of Fig; 1 with the lid omitted and showing the slide partly drawn out. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section of the lid and tray on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is .an enlarged parts whereby the aforesaid objects are atbroken detail of lthe slide, follower, and one hanger. Fig. 5 is a detail of a hangerclip- Figs. 6 and 7 are respectively perspective de tails of the device onthe tray and ron the trunk-lid for Yremovably supporting the tray in the lid.
A is the trunk-bod adapted to stand on g' end when desired an yprovide'a wardrobe or closet wherein garments vmay hang at length without folding and, preferably having a bulged top a; 0n theupper end of the trunk A as the same stands upright is arranged a sliding b'ar Bfhereinafter termed the :"slide.
- In cross-sectionsaid slide B is T-shaped, as
shown in Fig. 1, and workswith a nice true' working fit in a T-shaped guide (i, preferably omposed of three pieces c de, respectively, W V'Girare iirmly -glued or otherwise fas-` tened together and then riveted to the top of the said trunk. In the preferred constructhe borough of Brooklyn, in the.
lslide from 'which the garment-hangersl tion of the slide there are two top pieces e,
one at each end of the guide, and a stop pin or screwf on said slideB pl'ays in the open space between these pieces, thuslimiting the extent to which said slide B can be 'drawnout 6o and said stop f is so positioned that-a suffi-. i cient length of said slide B is left ilrthe when said slide B is fully .drawn outrtoinin- -tain said slide practically horizontal?.I To' crease the play of said slide, the vsaidfg"iride,C is extended out beyond the front (or tp) edde of the trunk A, asshown in 'Fig'. 2, andthe projecting part of said guide C and thehd VlI are so mutually positioned and arrangedthat said projecting part of the uide is received into and protected by said lid when the said. lid is closed. From said slide B are supported one or more rods G. When there aretwo such parallel. rods, their ends are threaded into arched metal brackets g g, one of which is screwed or riveted to therunder side of said slide B neargeach Aend vthereof` From said rods G G are suspended by screw-eyes, which have easy fit on said rods, ing clamp I-I, which is a rectangular frame, preferably of-wood 'and with o oss-bars, as shown, and of such length that ts lpwer end is well clear of the bottom of the trunk, so
that the said follower-may be moved freely in'- and out of the trunk without friction between the follower and the bottom of the trunk. On
a follower or cloth-A said rods G G are also movabl arranged aig suitable number of metal hol ers or c'li s two being shown in Fig. 2. Said cli ,s are preferably stamped .of sheet meta in the form clearly indicated in Figs. Lland 5, so as to provide seats or. holders forthehangerbars L', 7c lc. beinrT eyeshavinglan v'eas'yfiit on said rods GG, being a turned-.up edge to hold the bar L on its seat,ia-ndma vcut-out part of the clip, so that a hookorfeye n may be sel cured to the middle of bar 'L'fo connecting with acoat-hanger forother fixture.v Said bars L serve as supports' for garment catches,
may be equipped with any suitable` fasteners hangers, &c.,` and arfeillustrated .with a sim-:noo

155 sofas not to interfere with the guide C and v'beveled sides l Las shown, is provided on-oppositesides and near the rear art and 'top -an'd lbottom of said tray wit metal hooks t ti, Saidzhooks t t are ositioned to engage' into-metal eyes u u, whic are riveted toro posite sides of the lid W.` Aat the sides of t e tray X are leather handles or straps y. Afbutton :c on the lid W holds the tray X from being displaced during transportation, ymaking a tight friction t when in locking position with a iece of sheet metal V, 'fastened yonrthe fend 'o the tray X. By turning said v -liutton :c a quarter-turn and taking hold of the handles y the user can lift the tray out of' the lid W, set'lit down anywhere, and return` `it to the lid at pleasure, rengaging the hooks tinto the e les n.
