Description

Pocket tweezers and pocket cases for tweezers.

The invention relates to tweezers such as those used for stamp collectors for holding and receiving postage stamps or for surgical, cosmetic and technical purposes for holding Smallest and finest parts are required and are produced, as well as containers for tweezers or the like. To their Packaging and safekeeping.

As is well known, these tweezers are made of steel and they essentially differ in their design only through the tweezer jaws arranged in the two leg ends, each designed for a specific purpose, designed as clamping or gripping jaws, are shaped and designed differently. Their structural design is common to all types of execution the same, because the tweezer jaws are resiliently formed by the upper parts of the legs, which are arranged in a V-shape, kept open and spread out. This spread position of the tweezers legs and jaws turns the tweezers into one unwieldy object, which has the disadvantage that it is easy to carry and carry in the pockets inside the Clothing is too bulky and unsuitable. The mostly pointed, hard and sharp-edged tweezer jaws make it difficult and hinder loosely inserting and tucking in the pockets, because it is all too easy for them to penetrate and damage the pocket lining or them get tangled up in it and are thus held in such an undesirable position that if the body moves in an awkward manner or external pressure on the pockets also poses a risk of injury for the body, or with a grip in the pocket for the hands.

The usual way of storing the tweezers up to now is that they are inserted into a plug-in cover that holds the tweezer legs and cheeks tightly enclosed like a sheath. Push-in cases made of leather or soft plastic with a top are known open or flap-like closable opening.

69? §I46

Although these slip-on cases offer sufficient protection, they have the disadvantage that they are suitable for the tweezers do not form a tight seal, because fabric lint and other items in the pockets can also get through the insertion opening Residues such as tobacco residues from the cigarette pack into the inside of the casing, which are in the Hold the tweezers in place and remove them from the sheath unpopular again dropped.

These disadvantages are generally eliminated by the present invention in that the tweezers in a solid, tightly closable container made of metal or plastic, with smooth outer surfaces rounded at the top and bottom is classified “which encloses the tweezers or a similar pointed object in a sleeve-like manner and is securely packaged.

With the stamp tweezers these disadvantages are according to the Invention avoided by providing the tweezers themselves or their tweezer container with a fastening clip, is arranged pluggable.

This plug-in tweezer container is characterized in particular by the fact that it is roughly in its external shape and size adapted to the pocket size of the fountain pen and ballpoint pen sets and how they have a holding and fastening clip that enables these pocket tweezers just like a pen from men in the upper jacket pocket, from women in the pocket of the handbag, safe and convenient can be plugged in and carried inconspicuously.

It is obvious and corresponds to the framework of this Invention that in these pocket containers instead of tweezers any other pointed, fragile or sensitive Daily necessities such as a nail file, nail cleaner, letter opener, screwdriver, pipe cleaner, a lip or eyelid pen or the like. Can be classified.

Another advantageous embodiment consists in that the object introduced into the container is in its head part is designed so that it simultaneously bile the top and closure part of this container

This head part can, for example, as a shaft, handle, cap, capsule or the like, made of metal or plastic, as well as Appropriate training with the lower part, as a plug-in screw or bayonet catch. This headboard can also be an integral part of the object, or designed as a single part, with the upper part of the object be united firmly or detachably.

Since in this arrangement the sleeve-shaped lower part of this container the object has to take up its entire length up to the head part, this is kept so long that also the fastening clip can be arranged in the lower part. This ensures that the container is empty in the pocket inserted, and the object combined with the head and closure part is introduced into the container at any time and can be removed from it again without having to be removed from the pocket.

Used for gripping, grasping and picking up, in particular, postage stamps only a minimal leg pressure is required, which is also applied by tweezers made of plastic material Can be, there is a further proposal of this invention, these postage stamp tweezers in whole or in part from a single / multi-colored or made of a colorless, crystal-clear plastic material to manufacture.

This arrangement according to requirements has particular advantages connected because these plastic tweezers are not only cheaper, but also of your choice in each Any color or colorless, one or two parts, are to be produced.

The colorless stamp tweezers made of clear plastic material are distinguished from all other tweezers by the fact that through the transparent tweezers, legs and jaws, between which the stamp is held, the entire stamp image, both on the face and on the back, is fully recognizable - and is sieht- bar, whereas in any other embodiment of the forceps of the mark of view is extracted by the pincer legs and jaws collapse so that t in the latter case the tweezers a second time to the brand reasonable i sets must be. ij
