COMBINATION ARTICLE HOLDING RECEPTACLE AND P oro Zhy Flled April 2l, 1952 United States Patent O COMBINATION ARTICLE HOLDING RECEP- TACLE AND PILLOW Laura Mary Coy and Dorothy A. Coy, Kokomo, Ind.
Application April 21, 1952, Serial No. 283,352
1 Claim. (Cl. 150-3) This invention relates to a combined article holding receptacle and pillow, and has as its primary object the provision of a bag or receptacle for holding sleeping garments which may during the day, be closed to resemble a pillow and thus be retained on the bed where the sleeping garments are readily accessible, and at the same time enhance the appearance of the bed.
An additional object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character which will readily lend itself to a variety of shapes, sizes and colors.
Still another object of the invention is the provision of such a device, provided with simple means for opening and closing the same, and wherein the closure means serve to change the appearance of the article from that of a receptacle or bag to that of a pillow.
Still other objects will in part be obvious and in part will be pointed out as the description of the invention proceeds, and shown in the accompanying drawing wherein there is disclosed a preferred embodiment of this inventive concept.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a side elevational view of one form of the device embodying this invention, shown in open position.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the construction of Figure 1, shown in closed position, wherein the appearance is that of a pillow,
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially along the line 33 of Figure 2, as viewed in thc direction indicated by the arrows,
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially along the line 4-4 of Figure 1,
Figure 5 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially along the line 5 5 of Figure 1, as viewed in thc direction indicated by the arrows.
Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views of the drawing.
Having reference now to the drawing in detail, there is generally indicated at a bag or body portion of any desired flexible material such as satin or the like. Body portion 10 is substantially circular in form and is joined along the line 11 extending longitudinally thereof by means of stitching 12, two selvage edges being formed by reversion of the ends of the body portion as indicated at 13 in Figure 4.
The bottom of the body portion may be pleated inwardly as indicated at 14 and secured between two soft exible cloth or satin panels 16 and 17, forming a bottom member generally indicated at 18 (see Fig. 5). The
peripheral edges of both portions 16 and 17 are reverted as indicated at 19 and 20 respectively and secured to the inwardly turned rim 21 of body 10 as by stitching 22 (see Fig. 5).
The upper portion of body 10 terminates in an outwardly flaring rim 25 which is pleated as indicated at 26, and which as best shown in Figure 3, is provided with an inwardly reverted top portion 27 secured as by stitches 28 to the lower portion of the rim 25. A circular wire 29 surrounds the body 10 adjacent its juncture with rim 25 and is secured in position adjacent the line of stitching 28 by a second line of stitching 30 which connects reverted portion 27 with body portion 10.
When it is desired to utilize the device for the storage of sleeping clothes or the like, the bag is positioned as shown in Figure 1, and the garment inserted in the body portion 10. Closure is then eiected by turning the ring 29 relative to the body portion in such manner that the body portion is twisted as generally indicated at 35 in Figure 2, to form a tight and effective closure. When the device is then placed base downwardly on the bed or similar surface, the body will collapse and the ring 29 and rim 25 will provide an ornamental pillow-like appearance as shown in Figure 2.
It will readily be apparent that when it is desired to remove the contents of the receptacle the ring may be lifted bodily and the weight of the body or bag will cause the same to untwist by gravity and permit access to the interior.
From the foregoing it will now be seen that there is herein provided an improved article holding receptacle and pillow which accomplishes all the objects of this invention and others, including many advantages of great practical utility and commercial importance.
As many embodiments may be made of this inventive concept and as many modifications may be made in the embodiments hereinbefore shown and described, it is to be understood that all matter herein is to be interpreted merely as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
What we claim is:
In a combined article holding receptacle and pillow a circular bottom portion, a soft flexible cylindrical body portion having one end secured to the periphery of said bottom portion, an outwardly aring rim integral with said body portion at the open end, and a circular wire ring secured to said body portion at its juncture with said rim, said body and rim being pleated about said ring in overlapping flexible folds, whereby rotation of said ring and bottom portion relative to each other will twist said body to close said receptacle, said rim including a reverted end portion and said wire ring being secured by stitching between said rim and the reverted end thereof.
