  • Patent number: 4020930
    Abstract: A brief case comprises two oppositely disposed side shells which are hinged together at a centrally located valence. Double action locks on the valence individually lock or otherwise secure each of the two side shells in position adjacent the valence. When the lock mechanism is operated in one manner, one side shell is released, and when the lock mechanism is operated in another manner the other side shell is released. A special procedure is required to release both side shells simultaneously. The valence includes a closed, deep tray compartment which may be either permanently or releasably secured therein. The deep tray faces one side shell to cooperate with that side shell and form a completely closed compartment. The bottom of the tray blocks the other side shell from view.
