Improvements in and connected with Portemonnaies, Pouches, Bags
and the like.
I, HERMANN LEHMANN, of Offenbach on the Main, in the Grand Duchy of
Hesse, German Empire, Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this inven-
tion to be as follows:-
This invention refers to portemonnaies, pouches, bags, and the like, of the kind
in which there are more than two compartments, and in which besides the fastening
for all the compartments, i.e. besides the main-fastening of the portemonnaie,
pouch, hag, or the like, another or an auxiliary fastening is provided for two
neighbouring compartments.
In portemonnaies, pouches, bags, and the like, of the kind afore mentioned the
upper rims of said two neighbouring compartments are in many cases made
rigid by means of metallic ledges secured to said rims. There are in such cases
three ledges on one side of one of the two compartments, and three ledges on the
opposite side of the other of said compartments, the common partition-wall between
the latter being without such a ledge; The middle ledges are thus attached to the
partition-walls that are situated on the two sides of said common one, and they
carry the fastening for the two compartments in question, and the lateral ledges
are situated on the fold-portions that form the elongations of the two partition-
walls having the middle ledges, as described.
My improvements in portemonnaies, pouches, bags, and the like, of the kind
treated consist, first, .in attaching the four lateral ledges. to the four fold-portions
that extend from the common partition-wall of the said two neighbouring compart-
ments; and, second, in so much reducing the height of said partition-wall that the
middle ledges of the neighbouring two walls may take into the recess thus formed
between the two pairs of the lateral ledges.
In order to make my improvements more clear I refer to the accompanying
drawing, in which a a are the two middle ledges and a3 a4 a5 a6 the lateral
ones; the latter form two pairs (as a and as a). The ledges a¹ a³ as belong
to one compartment, the ledges as at a to the other one. e is the common partition-
wall of the two compartments, and ele are the other or neighbouring partition-
walls having the middle ledges a¹ a. Owing to the lesser height of the parti-
tion-wall e (see Figure 1) the ledges a¹ as may be laid side by side, and in a line
or lines with the ledges as as and at a (see Figure 2).

I, HERMANN LEIMANN, of Offenbach on the Main, in the Grand-Duchy of
Hesse, German Empire, Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described
and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention refers to purses, pouches, bags and similar articles of the kind
in which there are more than two compartments, and in which besides the fastening
for all the compartments or divisions, i.e. besides the main-fastening of the purse,
pouchi, bag, or the like, another or an auxiliary fastening is provided for two
neighbouring compartments.
In purses, pouches, bags, and the like, of the kind afore mentioned the
upper rims of said two neighbouring compartments are in many cases made
rigid by means of metallic ledges secured to said rims. There are in such cases
three ledges on one side of one of the two compartments and three ledges on the
opposite side of the other of said compartments, the common partition-wall between
the latter being without such a ledge; the middle ledges are thus attached to the
partition-walls that are situated on the two sides of said common one, and they
carry the fastening for the two compartments in question, and the lateral ledges
are situated on the fold-portions that form the elongations of the two partition-
walls having the middle ledges as described:
My improvements in purses, pouches, bags, and the like, of the kind

that extend from the common partition-wall of the said two neighbouring compart
ments; and second; in so much reducing the height of said partition-wall that the
middle ledires of the neighbouring two walls may take into the recess thus formed

In order to make my improvements more clear I refer to the drawings left with
Provisional Specifications, in which a¹ a are the two middle ledges and a at
at a the lateral ones; the latter form two pairs (a3 a4 and a5 a6). The ledges a¹

the common partition-wall of the two compartments, and ele are the other or
neighbouring partition-walls having, the middle ledgès a a². Owing to the lesser
height of the partition-wall e (see Figure 1) the ledges a as may be laid side
by side and in a line or lines with the ledges a³ as and as a (see Figure 2).
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is:--
.
In fastenings for purses, bags and similar articles, the employment of four
lateral ledges in combination with two middle ledges arranged to take into the
recess formed between two pairs of lateral ledges, substantially as described.
