And a groove 8 for inserting and receiving and holding coins 6 which escape from the transparent pocket 3 and slide down when is turned downward.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, the cover 2 is integrally connected to the coin purse body 1 so as to be freely opened and closed. That is,
The cover 2 can be expanded or folded with respect to the coin purse body 1. The materials of the coin purse body 1 and the cover 2 are free, and can be formed of, for example, one piece of leather.

On the inner surface of the coin purse body 1, there is provided a transparent pocket 3 opening toward the cover 2. The transparent pocket 3 means a pocket through which the inside can be seen from the outside. It is not always necessary that all of the pocket material used is transparent. As shown in the figure, a transparent plastic sheet 4 and a frame-like material such as opaque leather are used. It is possible to form a pocket in combination with the member 5. The transparent pocket 3 is large enough to accommodate a plurality of coins 6 therein.

A coin receiving member 7 having a substantially U-shape and having a large cutout opening 15 at the center is attached to the inner surface of the cover 2 along the periphery thereof. 7
A groove 8 which opens inward is formed between the cover 8 and the cover 2. The coin receiving member 7 may be made of any material, but may be made of the same material as the coin purse main body 1 and the cover 2, for example, leather.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the cover 2 is opened and the cover 2 is positioned below the transparent pocket 3 so that the opening 9 of the transparent pocket 3 faces downward, as shown in FIG.
The coin 6 that escapes from the transparent pocket 3 and slides down can be received and held so as not to fall. When the coin 6 is inserted, the groove 8 preferably has such a depth that the end of the coin 6 is slightly exposed and the end of the coin 6 can be easily picked with a fingertip. .

In order to smoothly receive the coin 6 sliding down from the transparent pocket 3 in the groove 8 as described above, the coin receiving member 7 is slightly lifted up from the inner surface of the cover 2 to cover the groove 8.
It is preferable to maintain a state in which the openings are securely opened. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, folds 10 are provided on both side portions of the coin receiving member 7, and as shown in FIG. 3, the groove 8 inside the central side portion of the coin receiving member 7 is formed. It is preferable to provide a spacer 11 having a V-shaped cross section formed of a hard plastic or the like in the back thereof in a substantially horizontal direction.

As shown in FIG. 2, a back pocket 12 capable of storing a commuter pass, a card, a plurality of bills (in a folded state) and the like can be provided on the outer surface of the coin purse body 1.

As shown in FIG. 1, a frame member 5 constituting the transparent pocket 3 provided on the inner surface of the coin purse main body 1 and a coin receiving member 7 mounted on the inner surface of the cover 2 are provided. Further, it is also possible to attach male and female hooks 13 and 14 which are fitted to each other with the cover 2 folded and closed.

[0012]

The coin purse of the present invention is as described above,
First, since the coin 6 is stored in the transparent pocket 3, the type and number of coins can be easily confirmed from the outside. Further, the cover 2 is opened and the opening 9 of the transparent pocket 3 is opened.
When the coin is turned downward, the coin 6 escapes from the transparent pocket 3 and slides down. The coin 6 is received by the groove 8 of the coin receiving member 7 attached along the peripheral portion of the inner surface of the cover 2, and the groove 6 The coin 6 received and held by the coin 8 can be easily picked out with a fingertip from the cutout opening 15 provided at the center of the coin receiving member 7. In this case, the coins 6 are sorted by type. In addition, there is an effect that it is extremely easy to take out a plurality of coins 6 at a time.
