~` SUMMARY 01~ IHE ~VENTION
.~, Said holder, as shown in FIG. 1 and 2, comprises a container or case 11, attached to a ring 12 of any size or shape, providing means for enclosing and kee~Y;' keys 13 together in an orderly and compact manner for storage and carriage. The container includes a lid 14 with operable means such as hinging about a pivot axis 15 or sliding in and out on a front face of the container. With the lid in its open t ~
~ position, a key 16 or a plurality of keys could be removed from the container, ~
i,. ~ . ~
they are then free to be moved along or rotated around ~he ring 12 for ease of identification, selection and use. ! ' '~
'5~
~ ' ' '~
:`.' :...... ':.:' Alternatively one or several keys 16 could be selected and left outside of the container, the remaining keys 13 are left inside the container with the lid closed, .:.. . .
thus separating the selected keys from the enclosed ones on the set. ~ ~-Said container could be made out of rigid material including plastic, metal and wood, or flexible material including leather or other tissues that wrap around the `' keys to hold them together. The preferred embodiment is that of a rigid container, made out of plastic with 3 walls and an operable front lid 14. The top . .
wall is omitted to ease the accommodation of the key heads and facilitate the ?.1 movement of keys in and out of the container along the ring. The bottom wall !' ,, iS omitted to accommodate exceptionally long key blade, whereas, for the majority of keys, their blades would be completely enclosed by the container walls in a storage position. The back wall 17 and the front lid are longer than the side walls 18,19, extending to cover the key heads and hold them in a parallel relationship ~j with each others on the ring. A hole 20 is provided at the extended end near the ~''3 ' top edge of the back wall to provide means for either direct mounting of the ring on the container or indirectly attaching it to the container by other means ~;
including a metal tab, linking wire or rod. The hole may be reenforced by a metal insert. In the case of direct mounting, the ring pass through the hole and is generally perpendicular to the back wall, the front lid 14 could be of the same ~, ~1 .. -.

~ ~ .
length as the back wall 17 and has a clearance slot 21 to accommodate the ring when the lid is in its closed position. The lid could also be made shorter than the back wall, enough to clear the ring and still adequately trap and hold the key heads in aparallel relationship to each other during storage. The side walls 18,19 are shorter than the back wall 17 or the lid 14, leaving spaces on both sides of the .~
container adjacent to the mounting location of the ring. The spaces allow accommodation of keys with unusually wide head, permit visual inspection and recognition of key heads when they are in a storage position. For a key that has been selected in any order other than the first one from the lid side and left outside of the container, the spaces also allow sideways rotational movement and -,~
; finger accessibility to the head of said key for a firm grip during use.
In its closed position, the lid 14 is held in place by snap-on clips 22 engaging with ~ profiles 23 disposed on the side wall 18 of the container, other means such as a `~' spring loaded mechanism located on the hinge side, or friction engagement ;~
between the side wall and the lid of the container could also be used for the same purpose. A recess 24 on the outside surface of the side wall readily identify the -ji movable side of the lid and allow adequate fingers access to pull the lid open. -~ , . ~
` The hinge 15 could be located on either the left or right side wall 18 or l9 ~
allowing a user dexterous preference. The hinge is disposed entirely along the ~ - ;
`' '~"; ':.
,., ~., . ~ .
.`l ''~'.'~'' r 1: ~
side wall to improve the aesthetic aspect of the holder. The hinge is designed in such a way that when fully opened, the lid swings out and stops at about a 90 degrees angle relative to the container front face, in this position the lid helps guide the keys into their places between the walls of the container for storage., ~
Different kinds of artwork 25 including printing, painting, embossing, stamping ~; and sculpting can be performed on the surfaces of the container wall and lid to identify, decorate, enhance the artistic or commercial value of the holder or toallow the holder to be served as mementoes at special occasions, places or events.

''',J fully encloses the keys except at the top end where it is open to allow keys - i removal and insertion. The ring 12 holding the key set is attached to a bar 27 -~that slides in and out of the container while being guided by a slot 28 and a recess ';.`~1 c~ 29 disposed in the centre of the back wall. With the bar in its outermost position, the key blades clear ~e shorter side walls 30, hence they could be swung ~ ~`
sideways out of the container and become free to move along the ring. In an ~;
~ 20863~o i innermost position, the blades of stored keys are fully enclosed by the wall of the container. The bar is located and slid along an outside recess 29 on the back wall 31. An inside recess 32 located at the top end of the back wall, in combination with the outside recess 29, guide the bar at this location. The bottom end of the bar is shaped into a T-spring 33, bent inward through the slot 28 to clip on the inside surface of the back wall 31 and hold the bar sliding along the recess 29.
At the ends of its travel the spring engages in notches or grooves 34 provided on the inside surface of the back wall 31 to hold the key set in either the extended or the retracted position relative to the container.
A second design variation, shown on FIG. 5 and 6, is that of a plurality of rings 35 been attached to the back wall of a container 36 along a same edge or on opposite edges to each other. This increases the holding capacity of the container .~ . ~
