Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a coin holder for coin purses and the like. [0002] Conventional coin purses have been devised in various ways in order to make it easier to check the contents and to easily put coins in and out. In some cases, such as using a transparent material or making the opening larger than the storage area, the coins are mixed in the coin purse, although some improvements have been made over the previous ones. It was still inconvenient to check another amount, check the total amount, and sort or remove the required coins. Such coin purses, which do not have a sorting function, tend to gather in an uneven manner when the number of coins increases, making them inconvenient to carry around.
Even a coin purse of a type combining several large and small pockets had the same function as the conventional coin purse in each pocket. Among the coin holders that appeared to solve these inconveniences are those that are practical,
There is a method of arranging coins in a line between two rails, but this type is excellent in organizing and visibility, but there is no convenience for putting coins in and out,
The structure itself becomes large, and there is a disadvantage that the coins remain large even when the number of stored coins is small. [0003] The present invention solves the difficulties of organizing coins, checking the contents, and removing coins in a coin purse or the like. An object of the present invention is to provide a convenient coin holder that can be easily arranged and that allows a necessary coin to be quickly taken out of a possessed coin. According to the present invention, a pocket 2 whose depth is smaller than the outer diameter of a coin, and a cover 3 corresponding to the pocket 2 are formed via a bendable portion 4. The above object is achieved by a coin holder 1 which is a feature. When the coins are stored, the depth of the pockets 2 is shallower than the outer diameter of the coins to be stored so that a part of each of the coins protrudes above the pockets 2. If two types of coins with different outer diameters are set to be stored together in the same coin holder 1 with a coin of 5 yen and a coin of 1 yen, not only the coin of 5 yen but also the coin of 1 yen comes out of the pocket 2. The pocket 2 is configured to be shallower than the outer diameter of the smaller one-yen coin in order to keep the pocket 2 in the closed state. The coin holder 1 is effective when used alone, but when several coin holders 1 are connected in series, the coin holder 1 can be used more effectively. Generally, 1 yen coin and 5 yen coin, 10 yen coin and 50 yen coin, 100 yen coin and 500 yen
A configuration in which three coin holders 1 are connected so that yen coins can be stored together is easy to use. [0007] The coin holder 1 is desirably as planar as possible so that the coins are easily arranged in the coin holder 1 on average. This makes it possible to prevent the coins from being biased toward one side in the individual coin holders 1 without any pressing by the front cover 9 or the like. The pocket 2 is desirably as flat as possible so that coins can be easily arranged in the pocket 2 on average. Accordingly, even when the front cover 9 and the cover 3 are not pressed, and even when the front cover 9 and the cover 3 are opened, the coins are biased to one side in the pocket 2. Can be prevented. When the coins are arranged in a small number, the coins are arranged side by side in a flat manner, and when the number is large, the coins are arranged slightly obliquely. Can be stopped. [0010] If one or both of the front and back portions of the pocket 2 are provided with a resilient planar return force, it is possible to prevent the coins arranged in the pocket 2 from shifting in function. . If a non-slip configuration is used for either or both of the front and back of the pocket 2, it is possible to prevent the coins arranged in the pocket 2 from shifting, and to prevent the coins from being opened and closed and unloaded. It is possible to prevent coins from falling due to easy handling. The size and the position of the cover 3 corresponding to the pocket 2 are such that when the bendable portion 4 is bent backward to open the cover 3, it does not hinder the insertion and removal of coins. When the bendable portion 4 is stretched straight to close the lid 3, coins sticking out of the pocket 2 can be held down to a minimum, and both opening and closing operations are not hindered. It is necessary to select the size and the range of the position to configure. If one or both of the pocket 2 and the cover 3 are made of a transparent material or one with a viewing window, the contents can be easily checked. At the same time, if the front cover 9 is also made of a transparent or one with a viewing window, even if the front cover is not opened,
It is easy to check the coin holding status, and convenience is increased. When the back portion 5 of the coin holder 1 is made of a soft material, the bendable portion 4 does not require a special structure such as a hinge. When the bendable part 4 is accidentally bent, the cover 3 may be opened,
This is to prevent the action of the present invention from being caught or distorted by other adjacent articles when putting the present invention in or out of a clothes pocket or bag, and to incorporate the present invention into a wallet or to use it sandwiched between wallets. If the bendable part 4 is not carelessly bent or acts on other articles by limiting to a specific arrangement, for example, it can be omitted. The back cover 10 is provided to prevent the action of the present invention from being caught or distorted by other adjacent articles when the present invention is put in or taken out of a pocket or bag of clothes. The present invention is incorporated in a wallet. Or, it can be omitted if there is no risk of acting on other articles by restricting it to a specific arrangement such as sandwiching it between billboards. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
Referring to FIG. 4, a rectangular transparent soft vinyl flat plate 6 is provided with an edge for bonding. Three surfaces are provided by dividing the inside of the peripheral portion into three. This dividing method is not uniform, and has a size corresponding to a coin to be used. In the present embodiment, a 1 yen coin and a 5 yen coin, a 10 yen coin and a 50 yen coin,
The setting is such that three coin holders 1 can be connected in series so that 100 yen coins and 500 yen coins can be stored together. An approximately trapezoidal chevron-shaped cut 8 is made in each of the three completed surfaces. A flat plate 7 made of candy rubber having the same shape as the flat plate 6
Similarly to the above, an edge is provided, and three surfaces are provided by dividing the inside of the edge into three. When the flat plate 6 and the flat plate 7 are overlapped with each other and their edges and junctions are joined, a pocket 2 is formed on the lower surface and a cover 3 is formed on the upper surface on each of the three surfaces.
Are completed in a series of three. At this time, in the soft vinyl flat plate 6 of each coin holder 1, the edge near the cut is narrow, so that it can be easily bent and stretched, and the candy rubber flat plate 7 can be freely placed anywhere. Can be bent and stretched. As a result, the bendable portion 4 is formed at the periphery near the cut and the portion of the candy rubber connecting the edges. A front cover 9 made of transparent soft vinyl that can be opened and closed is attached to the upper edge of the flat plate 6. A soft vinyl back cover 10 is attached to the flat plate 7. Since the present invention has the above-described structure, when using it, first open the front cover 9 and bend the bendable portion 4 of the coin holder 1 to be used.
The cover 3 on the upper side of the coin holder 1 is opened. When a coin is inserted into the pocket 2, the pocket 2 comes out of the pocket 2 because the depth of the pocket 2 is smaller than the outer diameter of the coin. For this reason, the visibility of coins is good, and coins can be easily arranged and stored. You can easily rearrange coins. In the case of removing the coin, the coin can be easily removed. Several coins can be stored in one operation. When the coins are stored, if the coins are arranged properly for each type, several coins can be taken out by one operation. When the work in the pocket 2 is completed, the bent bendable portion 4 is straightened and the cover 3 is closed. Close the front cover 9 to end use. As in the present embodiment, when all of the three parts of the front cover 9, the pocket 2, and the cover 3 are transparent, the front cover 9
You can check the coin holding status from outside. When the coin holder 1 contains no coins, the present invention is completely flat. In addition, even if the number of coins to be stored increases, the present invention can minimize the thickness of the coins, and because of the thin and flexible structure, even if it is carried over another article in a clothing pocket or the like, it does not feel uncomfortable. Does not occur. It is easy to check the holding status of coins, and it is easy to remove them, so it is not necessary to increase unnecessary coins.
