Abstract
A bone-ashes urn preserving case includes a case body, a soft cushion and two positioning members. The case body has a chamber in its interior, and the soft cushion is attached on a rear wall of the case body, and the positioning members are respectively adhered on the inner surfaces of two opposite sidewalls of the case body. Each positioning members are made of soft plastic, shaped as a palm with five fingers, having an inner embrace surface for softly embracing two sides of a bone-ashes urn when it is placed in the chamber of the case body, with the soft cushion resting against the rear side of the urn. So the urn never sways or inclines in the case body even in case of an earthquake, always safely kept therein without possibility of getting any damage.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


This invention relates to a bone-ashes urn preserving case, particularly to one provided with cushions made of soft plastic and positioning members in the inside of a bone-ashes urn preserving case. The positioning members are respectively located on two sidewalls, having an inner side functioning as an embrace surface, an outer side functioning as an adhering surface to adhere on the surface of the two sidewalls. Then the two positioning members embrace the two sides of a bone-ashes urn, having an outer thick end for stopping the urn to move out so that the urn may be stabilized in the preserving case, permitting the soul of the deceased silently and calmly and seriously preserved in the urn, which will never be swayed, inclined to get damaged.


2. Description of the Prior Art


A conventional bone-ashes urn preserving case shown in FIG. 1 includes a case body 1 defining a chamber 11 for a bone-ashes urn to be placed therein, a faceplate 13 removably fixed at a front side of the case body 11 to prevent the urn from falling out of the case.


However, the conventional bone-ashes urn preserving case 1 has no structure of stabilizing the urn for preventing it from swaying or inclining in case of an earthquake or the preserving case collided by something accidentally. Therefore, the preserving urn may be swayed or inclined to be possible damaged, as a sign of disrespect to the deceased.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This invention has been devised to offer a bone-ashes urn preserving case provided with the anti-vibration function effected by two palm-shaped position members made of soft plastic adhered on two sidewalls of the case so as to preserve safely the bone-ashes urn for the purpose of calming the soul of the deceased.


The feature of the invention is two positioning members shaped as a palm with five fingers adhered on two inner sidewalls of a bone-ashes urn preserving case, and each positioning member has an inner embracing surface for holding immovably the urn and an outer adhering surface for adhering on the inner surface of each sidewall of the case to keep stably the positioning members in the case. Further, a soft cushion is adhered on an inner surface of a rear wall of the case to resiliently stop the rear side of the urn.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

A first embodiment of a bone-ashes urn preserving case in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, includes a case body 2, a chamber 21 defined by the case body 2, a soft cushion 22 made of soft flexible plastic adhered on an inner surface of a rear wall of the case body 2, two positioning members 3 adhered on an inner surface of two sidewalls of the base body 2, and a faceplate 13 to close up the front opening of the case body 2.


The two positioning members 3 are respectively shaped as a Buddha's thick palm with five fingers closely positioned and made of soft flexible plastic, symmetrically located and adhered on an inner surface of the two sidewalls of the case body 2 for embracing two sides of a bone-ashes urn with an embracing surface 31 formed in the inner side of each positioning member 3 with a thin finger portion 310 and a thick palm portion 311 to contact flexibly the two sides of a bone-ashes urn, and an adhering flat surface 32 formed in an outer surface for adhering on the inner surface of each sidewall of the case body 2.


In using, referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, a bone-ashes urn 12 is to be placed in the chamber 21 of the case body 2, with the rear surface of the urn resting against the soft cushion 22 on the rear wall of the chamber 21, with the adhering surfaces 32 of the two positioning members 3 coated with glue or adhesive and adhered on the inner surfaces two sidewalls of the case body 2. Thus, the two embracing surfaces 31 of the positioning members 3 embrace the two sides of a bone-ashes urn 12, with the thick palm portions 311 narrowing the front opening of the chamber 21 of the case body 2 so as to stabilize the urn 12 by stopping the front side of the urn 12 from moving out. Lastly, the faceplate 13 is fixed to close up the front opening of the chamber 21. Thus, even in case of an earthquake, the bone-ashes urn 12 is closely and stably embraced by the two positioning members 3 keeping the urn 12 from swaying or inclining as to protect the urn 12 from getting damaged so that the soul of the deceased may not be disturbed, and remain calm and comfortable.


Next, FIGS. 4 and 5 show a second embodiment of a bone-ashes urn preserving case, which has nearly the same structure as the first embodiment except that an elongate horizontal inserting projection 210 additionally formed on an inner center surface of each of two opposite sidewalls of the case body 2, and an elongate horizontal insert groove 320 formed in an outer surface of the adhering surface 32 of each positioning member 3 to correspondingly fitting with each elongate insert projection 210, without adhering the positioning members 3 on the sidewalls of the case body 2.


In using the second embodiment, a bone-ashes urn 12 is placed in the chamber 21 of the case body 2, with the rear side of the urn 12 resting against the soft cushion 22 fixed on the rear wall of the chamber 21. Then the two positioning members 3 are combined respectively with the two sidewalls of the case body 2 by pushing and fitting the elongate insert projections 210 in the elongate grooves 320 of the positioning members 3, with the thick palm portions 311 narrowing the front opening of the chamber 21 of the case body 2, and with the embrace surface 31 closely embracing the two sides of the urn 12 as to stabilize the urn 12 in the immovable condition as does the first embodiment.


The invention has the following advantages, as can be seen from the foresaid description.


1. The positioning members are easily assembles with the case body.


2. The thick front portion of the positioning members can narrow the front opening of the chamber of the case body, with the palm portion embracing the two sides of the bone-ashes urn, keeping the urn from taken or sliding out.


3. The positioning members and the soft cushion can surround softly and resiliently a bone-ashes urn to prevent the urn from swaying or inclining to cause possible damage even in case of an earthquake.


While the preferred embodiments have been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications may be made therein and the appended claimed are intended to cover all such modifications that may fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
