The frames 2, as at present made, are provided at, their meeting ends with hinge lugs which are hingedly connected by hinge at the top, andfmy object is to dispense withv serve" the valuable purpose ofop ening the present style ofzhingesjasused and to substitutetherefor a very simple, cheapjand effective. spring connection which will not, only take the place of the hinge but, will-also and hdding Open poi'. e 12 s.

I have illustrated my invention as applied to a hand bag 1 which is typical of any satchel, grip, or traveling bag that opens at the top. The top has attached thereto the usual marginalmetallic frames 2 which com- 'prise inner and outer metal bars 3 and 4:,
respectively. These bars grip between them the lining for thebag and also carrythe customary toplock and latch members and handle 6. All this part of theconstru'ction Having thus described my invention, what I claim'as new and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is
