BY Florio CTFZOSZ'. @wm mm' Patented Feb. 2s, 1933 UNITI-:D sTfATEs FIIOBIO G. FLOSI, l' C HICAGO, ILLINOIS DISPENSING POWDER PUFF Application med Hatch 7, 1932. Serial No. 597,384.
This invention relates to powder puis and it has' particular relation to powder dispensng puffs having means for maintaining a fresh and adequate supply of powder for the user.
Commonly used powder ypuii's are employed in conjunction with separate receptacles containing powder, or in conjunction with compartments in purses, handbags, van- 13 ity compacts, and the like, and frequently powder was wasted or spilled upon the clothing or other articles during its yapplication to the'pul and tothe face. In utilizing devices of this kind it is necessary to press or dip the-puf into the receptacle in order to obtain the proper supply of powder for facial or. otherapplication in a well known manner. The dipping of the puff into the receptacle not only wastes the powder, but also involves j uneven application upon the puff as well as upon the face. Likewise, it is likely to `drop upon articles of clothing orrupon the iioor which will then require brushing or cleaning. In the type of powder p'ui disclosed herein 5 a resilient porous core having a powder receiving cavity therein is provided inside a flexible cover of suitable material such as that of which the outer layer of a conventional powder pull is composed. The cover is C9 provided V'with closul'edevices` to insureaccess to the interior of the puif to facilitate replenishing the supply of powder or to facilitate replacing elements of the puff. With respect Ito the latter feature, either vthe cover or the porous core may be replaced.
In the drawing: Fig. 1 is a perspectivepf an vimproved powder puff Fig. 2 is a-perspective 'of a powder puff, closure elements thereof being loosened to illustrate the interior structure and the manner in which the closure elements are manipulated; Fig. 3 is a cross section, ona larger scale,
i of the powder pull Fig. 4 is a perspective of a resilient porous core for the powder pui;
Fig. 5 is a perspective ofanother form of im roved powder puff; and l ig. 6 is a perspective of the closure ele- 50 ments of the powder pull' shown by Fig. 5.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 4, a powder puff 10 is shown comprising complemental cover sections 12 and 13 having their edges inwardly turned and secured to provide a seam 14 55 formed by sewing or by other suitable fastening means. Although the edges of the sections are vturned inwardly they arey not hemmed but form marginal portions 15 and 16 which are coincidental with the seam 0o along slightly more than half theA perimeter of the puff. A strap 17 incorporated in opposite seam portions of the puff extends diametrieally across its surface and serves as a handle for the puff. 1
An openingl .18 defined by the edges of the section which are not seamed is provided with flexible closure elements 19 each of which has one end secured adjacent the end of the strap in the seam 14 and is threaded 70 progressively through eyelets 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26. These closure elements are in the form of draw strings and by drawing them the eyelets 20-21, 22-23 and 24-25, respectively, are drawn against each other to close the opening 18 and to provide the smoothly closed edge portions throughout the circumference of the powder pui. The closure elements are then tied as indicated at 30. 80 By opening the section as shown in Fig. 2 it is then in position to receive a iexible porous core 32 composed of sponge rubber, textile, or any other suitable Vmaterial having the central cavity 33 therein that is cov- 85 ered by a central portion ofthe section 12 and is adapted to contain a supply of powder 34. A plurality of openings 36 communicating through the section 12 `withthe cavity 33, provides for dispensing the powder 39 portion, as indicated at 44. The other wire lie the cavity 36, thus facilitating the distherethrough. These openings are of suitable size to dispense proper amounts of powder. .If desirable the openings 36 can be made relatively large and a sheet of gauze 37 or other mesh material can be secured to the inner surface of the section 12 to overpensing of the powder. Since the core 32 is resilient, it maintains the powder puff in a desirable shape and in soft yieldable condition. Likewise, inasmuch as air is entrapped in the porous structure of the sponge rubber, the powder can be forced out by prestion of the wire 37, as indicated at 43. The
wire 38 is disposed within the cover 12 and fits snugly inside the marginal portion 15, the fastener proJecting through the marginal 39 is disposed within theI cover 13 and thus when the fastener is snapped to close the covers, there is a thickness of cover 13 between the fastener 42 and the wire 39. The end connections 40 between the wires' are secured in the same portion of the cover adjacent the extremities of the opening 18. As shown by Fig. 5 the strip 17 has been omitted and in this form of the invention, the powder may be dispensed through the opening36 and then distributed properly over the powdered surface by turning the puff and applying the reverse side which does not have dispensing openings.
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that the cover sections 12 and 13 can be removed, cleaned, and replaced upon the sponge rubber, or the sponge rubber can be easilywashed or replaced. Thereis no danger of wasting the powder or spilling it upon clothing or other articles and uniform dispensing of the powder is insured.
Although only two forms of the invention have been shown and described in detail, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not so limited but that various changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention or from the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is: 1. A powder puff comprising a hollow cover, said cover having an opening'therein, means for opening and positively closing the opening, a yieldable powder receptacle disposed inside the cover and removable der receptacle disposed between the coverl members and replaceable through said mouth for dispensing powder through one of the cover members.
3.A powder puff comprising a pair of cover members provided with complemental inturned marginal portions, said marginal portions being secured together along a major portion of their length, a closure mem- .ber interlaced from one marginal portion to the other beyond said major portion, and a resilient porous 4member having a cavity therein disposed between the. cover members, one of the cover members having perforations communicating with the cavity for dispensing powder from the cavity through the perforations.
4. A powder puff comprising a pair of.
turned portion and the adjacent wall of the cover, a snap fastener on one of the closure members for engaging the other closure member whereby the cover members are closed, and a sponge rubber core removably disposed between the cover members and having a powder containing cavity therein, one of the cover members having perforations communicating with the cavity for dispensing powder therefrom.
5. In a dispensing powder puff, a sponge rubber core having pores interspersed substantially uniformly throughout and adapted to receive powder and expel it when pressed, saidporous core having al relatively large cavity for receiving a bulk of powder to be dispensed both from the cavity and FLORIO G.
