VANITY-BOX.
y specification of Letters Patent. Pamnte Nm@ 21, 1916,
Application led May 6, 1916. ISerial No. 95,903.
-its primary object the provision of a vanity box capable of receiving and holdingr a rouge holding pad or receptacle in such a manner that the pad may be readily detached when 'its rouge is used up and a new pad substituted in its place.
A still further object of my invention consists in providing a vanity box of the abov(` described character having a hinged cover within which is mounted a mirror, the hinge beingso constructed and secured to the cover that it serves to hold the cover in vertical position when the box is open and also serves as a means for attaching the box to a cham or similar support.
lVith these and other objects in view, my invention will be more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and then specifica l'y pointed out in the claims which are attached to and form a part of this application.
In the drawing: Figure'l is a perspective view of my vanity box in open posit-ion, showing the rouge pul which may be supplied wi-th the box and inclosed between the cover and rouge pad; Fig. f2 is a. top plan view of the box with the` cover in fully open position; Fig. 3 is a transversef sectional view taken through the box and its hinge, the pulil being' removed; Fig. el is a rear elevation of the box, showing' the hinge structure; Fig. 5 is a sectional view corresponding to that shown in Fig. 3, but with the cover ofv the box in open position and the rouge pad removed from the box: F ig. (3
is a transverse sectional view taken on`thc line (S-G of Fig. Q, illustrating more clearly the manner employed in detachably locking a rouge holding pad in the bo-X.
Correspondingr and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawing by the same reference characters.
In the drawing, I have illustrated my improved vanity box as including a substantially cylindrical body 10 having an inte` grally formedbottom 1l. This body, in-
termediate its height, is instruck, as shown.'
to provide a seat l2 or, if pre-ferred,ithe body of the box may be made somewhat lower anda ring 13' may be soldered within the upper end of thebox so that the upper edge of the box itseltl constitutes an annular shoulder, as shown in Fig. 5.
Hinged to the `boxisa cover 14 having' -a peripheral flange 'l5 which tits snugly about 'the upper portion of the body of the box and which, when the cover is closed', en-
gages against the. seat or shoulders-12. The
hinge 1G, connecting the cover with the box, may be formed separately and soldered to the box and cover or may be formed 'by bending7 out tongues formed upon the iange. of the cover and a tongue formed upon the body of the box to provide sleeves to receive the pintle pin ot' the hinge. In any event, that portion of the hinge connected to the body of the box carries an eye l? which is rigidly fixed to the hinge vand box' and which, in turn, carries a ring` 18 ,by means of which a chain or other suspension device may be attached to the'box. :is shown, the eye 17 is disposed in a vertical plane with its upper peripheral 'face at such a level that when thebox cover opened,'t he flange l5 of the box will engage the eye to hold the cover in vertical or substantially vertical position with respect to the box. A knob 19, attached to the flange 15 of the cover at a point diametrically opposite the hinge 16,
cover 1l is a mirror E20 which is held in' place by a ring' 2l wedged within the flange l5 of thc cover and holding? the inirror closely against the inner face of the'cover.
By constructing the hinge insuch a inanner as to support the cover in vertical position. when the box is opclnI insure a suitable disposition ot the mirror for use.
This vanity box is priinariiy intended t0 receive rouge holding,- pads oit' the type set forth in a prior application filed by nie J une 1l, 1.915, and bearing the Serial No. 34,303 and in Figs. I, 2, 3 and 6 of the drawing, I have illustrated snch a' pad, filled with rouge, in place. This pad, which is preferably formed of sheet metal,,includesa base portion 22 provided about its edge with an upwardly and inwardly directed retaining iiange Q3. The rouge, indicated at 24, is
. rouge to hold the cake in place.
As clearly shown in the drawing, my vanity box is made somewhat greater Iin diameter than the diametervof the rouge vpad and as a means for anchoring the rouge pad within the box I provide al plurality of abutments in the forni of spherical balls or knobs 25 which I secure to the inner face of the body l0 of the box in peripheral spaced relation to each other, these balls or knobs being preferably disposed substantially tangentially both to the Wall of the boxand to 'its bottom and being so proportioned that the diameter of av circle passing through their inner faces is somewhat less than the diameter of the pad. Practically any number of these knobs may b e employed but as a rule three or four are sufficient.
Obviously, the pad, lilled with rouge, may be mounted in the box by merely. positioning it within the box in such a manner that it rests upon these balls or knobs and prei` ing against it to spring it past the knobs into the position shown in Fig. 6, When the knobs will anchor it in place and also centralize it.
with respect to the body of the box. When the rouge has beenrused from a pad held in one of these'boxes, the pad may be readily removed bythe insertion of a suitable instrument between its edge and the side of the box, a pair of embroidery or manicure scissors orequivalent instrument being suitable for this purpose. It'Will, therefore, be
clear that my improved Vanity box may be l used indefinitely, a fresh pad of rouge being supplied from time to time as the one in the box becomes exhausted.
As a rule I provide a rouge puff 26 of any suitable character with each vanitybox, the A uff being proportioned to seat Within the box betweenv the rouge pad and mirror.
Preferably, as shown in F ig. 3, the bottom of the rouge holding pad is formed With spaced slits to define a. portion which is upp ,b'nt to provide a loop 27. By this arrange- Ument, the pad may be readily Withdrawn 'when the rouge is exhausted by inserting one end of a hair pin or like instrument in the loop and pressing down'upon said instru- #neng to tilt the pad and draw it past the Iripheral wall thereof, and a rouge holding' pad including a base having an upwardly and inwardly' directed peripheral fiange adapted to be lockingly engaged beneath the balls by forcing the pad against the bottom of the body; y
2. In a vanity box, the combination with. a box having a base and marginalwall, of a rouge holding pad seating upon the base and having an upwardly and inwardly directed marginal wall spaced from the Wall of the box, and a plurality of balls peripherally spaced Within the box and secured to the upstanding wall thereof, the balls projecting to engage the marginal wall of the pad.
3. A vanity box inclu-ding a body having an upstanding marginal wall, means for lockingly holding a rouge pad within the box, a cover having a depending marginal Weill adapted to encircle the marginal Wall of the box, and a hinge connecting the cover and box and disposed to hold thecover in vertical position with respect to the box ,when the cover is open, said hinge including hinge ears, one of which carriesV an eye disposed in a vertical plane with its upper peripheral face adapted to engage the marginal Wall of the cover when thecover is' in substantially vertical position.
et. A vanity box including a boxbody,
balls secured within the body and tothe peripheral Wall thereof, and a rouge hblding pad including a base having an upwardly and inwardly directed peripheral ange adapted to be lockingly engagedV beneath the balls by forcing the pad gainst the bottom of the body, the base of the pad being formed with an upstanding loop.
5. A vanity box including abox body, abutments projecting inwardly from the marginal Wallthereof, and a rouge holding pad including a base having an upwardly and inwardly directed marginal liange adapted to be lockingly engaged beneath the abutments by forcing the pad against the bottom of the box body.
In testimony whereof I ax my signature.
