Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Geldbeutelanordnung für Zahlungsmittel unterschiedlicher Währungen.The invention relates to a purse arrangement for means of payment of different currencies.

Es sind derartige Geldbeutelanordnungen bekannt, die im wesentlichen aus einem Geldbeutel bestehen, der mehrere, jeweils über einen Reißverschluß zugängliche Fächer zum Einbringen von Zahlungsmitteln verschiedener Währungen umfaßt. Beispielsweise weist ein derartiger Geldbeutel ein Fach für Deutsche Mark, ein Fach für Österreichische Schilling, ein Fach für Lira und ein Fach für Schweizer Franken auf. Ein Nachteil einer derartigen Geldbeutelanordnung besteht darin, daß sie wegen der vielen Fächer relativ groß und zudem im bestückten Zustand auftragend und schwer ist.Wallet arrangements of this type are known which essentially consist of a wallet which comprises a plurality of compartments, each accessible via a zipper, for the introduction of means of payment of different currencies. For example, such a wallet has a compartment for German marks, a compartment for Austrian shillings, a compartment for lira and a compartment for Swiss francs. A disadvantage of such a wallet arrangement is that it is relatively large because of the many compartments and is bulky and heavy when loaded.

Aus dem DE-GM 90 10 965.1 geht eine gattungsferne Herrenbörse hervor, die ein entlang einer Mittellinie buchartig faltbares Umschlagteil mit einem Vorderteil und einem Rückenteil aufweist. An der Innenseite eines dieser Teile, vorzugsweise des Rückenteiles, ist ein Hartgeldfach angeordnet, während an der Innenseite des anderen Teiles Fächer zum Einstecken von Ausweisen, Kreditkarten und dergleichen vorgesehen sind. Das Hartgeldfach und/oder ein als Ausweistasche ausgebildetes Teil ist lösbar mit dem Umschlagteil verbunden. Der Zweck dieser lösbaren Anordnung besteht darin, eine Möglichkeit zu schaffen, die Geldbörse so klein und handlich wie möglich zu gestalten, wenn die Ausweistasche bzw. das Hartgeldfach überhaupt nicht benötigt werden.DE-GM 90 10 965.1 shows a non-generic men's wallet which has an envelope part with a front part and a back part which can be folded along a center line. On the inside of one of these Parts, preferably the back part, have a cash deposit compartment, while compartments for inserting ID cards, credit cards and the like are provided on the inside of the other part. The coin pocket and / or a part designed as an identification pocket is detachably connected to the cover part. The purpose of this detachable arrangement is to provide a way to make the wallet as small and handy as possible when the ID pocket or the coin pocket are not needed at all.

Aus der Druckschrift US-A-28 03 281 geht eine Geldbeutelanordnung mit einem Geldbeutelteil hervor, an dem mehrere Geldfachteile lösbar befestigt sind, wobei diese Geldfachteile zur Aufnahme von Zahlungsmitteln unterschiedlicher Währungen bestimmt sind. Ein Problem dieser Geldbeutelanordnung besteht darin, daß sie unabhängig von der Anzahl der Geldfachteile die Form eines relativ großen und daher unhandlichen Behältnisses aufweist.From the document US-A-28 03 281 a wallet arrangement with a wallet part emerges, to which a plurality of money compartment parts are detachably fastened, these money compartment parts being intended for receiving means of payment of different currencies. A problem with this wallet arrangement is that it has the shape of a relatively large and therefore bulky container, regardless of the number of parts of the compartment.

Aus der Druckschrift FR-A-26 36 510 geht ein Lederwarenteil hervor, das aus mehreren Elementen zu einer Einheit zusammengesetzt werden kann, wobei ein buchartiges Trägerelement so zusammengeklappt werden kann, daß die in ihm befindlichen Elemente sowohl aneinander als auch an den Innenseiten des buchartigen Trägerelementes befestigbar sind. Der Sinn dieses Lederwarenteiles besteht darin, daß ein langwieriges Suchen von üblicherweise in einer Handtasche verstreuten Gegeständen dadurch vermieden wird, daß diese Gegenstände in dem buchartigen Trägerelement zusammengefaßt werden.From the document FR-A-26 36 510 is a leather goods part that can be assembled from several elements to form a unit, wherein a book-like carrier element can be folded so that the elements in it both against each other and on the inside of the book-like Carrier element are attachable. The meaning of this Leather goods part is that a tedious search for objects usually scattered in a handbag is avoided by combining these objects in the book-like carrier element.

Aus der Druckschrift WO88/04147 ist es bekannt, mehrere Geldfachteile für Zahlungsmittel unterschiedlicher Währungen an einer streifenförmigen Halteinrichtung zu befestigen.From document WO88 / 04147 it is known to fasten several cash compartment parts for means of payment in different currencies to a strip-shaped holding device.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, eine Geldbeutelanordnung für Zahlungsmittel unterschiedlicher Währungen dahingehend zu verbessern, daß sie vergleichsweise klein und daher sehr handlich ist.The object of the present invention is to improve a wallet arrangement for means of payment of different currencies in such a way that it is comparatively small and therefore very handy.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Geldbeutelanordnung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a wallet arrangement with the features of claim 1.

Der wesentliche Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Geldbeutelanordnung besteht darin, daß sie ein Geldbeutelteil mit einem lösbaren Geldfachteil für eine bestimmte Währung sowie wenigstens ein weiteres Geldfachteil für eine andere Währung umfaßt, das gegen das eine Geldfachteil austauschbar ist, so daß die gerade benötigte Währung sich in dem mit dem Geldbeutelteil verbundenen Geldfachteil befindet und die gerade nicht benötigte Währung an einem dafür geeigneten Ort aufbewahrt wird. Vorteilhafterweise ist es dadurch möglich, verschiedene Währungen getrennt voneinander und geordnet in Geldfachteilen aufzubewahren und nur das Geldfachteil mit der gerade benötigten Währung mit dem Geldbeutel zu verbinden. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weisen die Geldfachteile ein Hartgeldfach und/oder ein Fach für Geldscheine auf.The main advantage of the wallet arrangement according to the invention is that it comprises a wallet part with a detachable money compartment part for a certain currency and at least one other money compartment part for another currency, which is interchangeable with the one money compartment part, so that the currency required is in the the purse part connected money compartment part and the currency that is not currently needed is kept in a suitable place. Advantageously, this makes it possible to store different currencies separately from one another and in an organized manner in money compartment parts and to connect only the money compartment part with the currency just required to the wallet. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the money compartment parts have a hard money compartment and / or a compartment for banknotes.

Vorteilhafterweise wird die vorliegende Geldbeutelanordnung als Set vertrieben, der mehrere Geldfachteile für verschiedene Währungen und gegebenenfalls ein Aufbewahrungsteil für die gerade nicht benötigten Geldfachteile umfaßt.Advantageously, the present purse arrangement is sold as a set that includes several cash compartment parts for different currencies and, if appropriate, a storage part for the money compartment parts that are not currently required.

Gemäß Figur 1 umfaßt die vorliegende Geldbeutelanordnung 1 ein Geldbeutelteil 2, an dem mit der Hilfe einer später näher erläuterten Befestigungseinrichtung ein Geldfachteil 3 lösbar befestigbar ist, und wenigstens ein weiteres Geldfachteil 3'. Vorzugsweise besteht das Geldbeutelteil 2 aus einem entlang einer Mittellinie 4 buchartig zusammenfaltbaren Umschlagteil 5, wobei an der Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 das Geldfachteil 3 mit der Hilfe der erwähnten Befestigungseinrichtungen lösbar befestigbar ist und wobei an der Innenseite der anderen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 beispielsweise wenigstens ein Fach zum Einstecken von Ausweisen, Bildern, Kreditkarten oder dergleichen vorgesehen sein kann. Beispielsweise handelt es sich bei diesem Fach um ein Klarsichtfach 6. Neben dem Klarsichtfach 6 können auch weitere Fächer vorgesehen sein. Entlang des oberen Randes kann das Umschlagteil 5 Öffnungen 7, 8 aufweisen, die in ansich bekannter Weise zu Geldscheinfächern oder dergleichen führen, die am Umschlagteil 5 durch verschiedene hintereinander angeordnete Trennwände 9 und 10 gebildet sind.According to FIG. 1, the present wallet arrangement 1 comprises a wallet part 2, to which a money compartment part 3 can be detachably fastened with the aid of a fastening device which will be explained in more detail later, and at least one further money compartment part 3 '. The wallet part 2 preferably consists of an envelope part 5 which can be folded along a center line 4 in the manner of a book, with on the inside of one half of the Envelope part 5, the cash compartment part 3 can be detachably fastened with the help of the mentioned fastening devices and, for example, at least one compartment for inserting ID cards, pictures, credit cards or the like can be provided on the inside of the other half of the envelope part 5. For example, this compartment is a transparent compartment 6. In addition to the transparent compartment 6, other compartments can also be provided. Along the upper edge, the cover part 5 can have openings 7, 8 which, in a manner known per se, lead to bill compartments or the like, which are formed on the cover part 5 by various partition walls 9 and 10 arranged one behind the other.

In der aus der Figur 2 ersichtlichen Weise weist die erwähnte Befestigungseinrichtung, mit deren Hilfe jeweils eines der Geldfachteile 3, 3' an der Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 befestigbar sind, wenigstens ein vorzugsweise streifenförmiges Klettverschlußteil 12 auf, das an der Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 befestigt, beispielsweise vernäht ist. Vorzugsweise sind an der genannten Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 voneinander beabstandet zwei Klettverschlußteile, nämlich ein oberes Klettverschlußteil 12 und ein unteres Klettverschlußteil 13 vorgesehen. In der ebenfalls aus der Figur 2 ersichtlichen Weise befinden sich an der Rückseite der Geldfachteile 3, 3' usw. den Klettverschlußteilen 12 und 13 zugeordnete weitere Klettverschlußteile 14 und 15, die beim Befestigen eines Geldfachteiles 3 bzw. 3' an dem Geldbeutel 2 gegen die Klettverschlußteile 12 und 13 gedrückt und an diesen verriegelt werden. Beispielsweise handelt es sich bei den Klettverschlußteilen 12 und 13 um sogenannte weiche Klettverschlußteile und bei den weiteren Klettverschlußteilen 14 und 15 um sogenannte harte Klettverschlußteile oder umgekehrt. Die Klettverschlußteile 12 und 13 bilden zusammen mit den Klettverschlußteilen 14 und 15 eine Befestigungseinrichtung.In the manner shown in FIG. 2, the mentioned fastening device, with the help of which one of the money compartment parts 3, 3 'can be fastened to the inside of one half of the cover part 5, has at least one preferably strip-shaped Velcro fastener part 12, which is on the inside of one Half of the envelope part 5 attached, for example sewn. Two Velcro fastener parts, namely an upper Velcro fastener part 12 and a lower Velcro fastener part 13, are preferably spaced apart from one another on the inside of one half of the cover part 5. In the manner also apparent from FIG. 2, there are further Velcro parts 14 and 15 associated with the Velcro parts 12 and 13 on the back of the money compartment parts 3, 3 'etc. Attach a money compartment part 3 or 3 'to the wallet 2 pressed against the Velcro parts 12 and 13 and locked to them. For example, the Velcro parts 12 and 13 are so-called soft Velcro parts and the other Velcro parts 14 and 15 are so-called hard Velcro parts, or vice versa. The Velcro parts 12 and 13 together with the Velcro parts 14 and 15 form a fastening device.

Es ist auch denkbar an der Stelle der Klettverschlußteile 12 bis 15 Druckknopfelemente oder andere Befestigungseinrichtungen vorzusehen. Beispielsweise ist es denkbar, an der Rückseite der Geldfachteile 3, 3' sogenannte Einstecklaschen 16 vorzusehen, wie sie in der Figur 2 durch strichlierte Linien dargestellt sind. Diese Einstecklaschen 16 sind an ihrer oberen Kante an der Rückseite der Geldfachteile befestigt, vorzugsweise vernäht. An der Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 des Geldbeutelteiles 2 befindet sich eine durch einen Einsteckschlitz 17 zugängliche Tasche, in die zur Befestigung des Geldfachteiles 3 bzw. 3' die Einstecklasche 16 eingeschoben wird. Es ist auch denkbar, den Einsteckschlitz am unteren Ende einer nach oben weisenden Einstecktasche an der Rückseite der Geldfachteile 3, 3' und eine nach oben weisende Einstecklasche an der Innenseite der einen Hälfte des Umschlagteiles 5 vorzusehen.It is also conceivable to provide 12 to 15 push-button elements or other fastening devices in the place of the Velcro fastener parts. For example, it is conceivable to provide so-called insertion tabs 16 on the back of the money compartment parts 3, 3 ', as shown in FIG. 2 by dashed lines. These insertion tabs 16 are attached to their upper edge on the back of the money compartment parts, preferably sewn.
