Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the present invention pertains] The present invention relates to a commuter pass for storing and protecting commuter passes that are frequently used and carried.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional commuter pass, a ticket clerk at a station visually checks the commuter pass, so it is sufficient to show a transparent bag-like commuter pass containing the commuter pass. So I was able to pass the ticket gate smoothly without stopping while walking. However, recent ticket gates have made machines check commuter passes on behalf of people. For this reason, it was necessary to take out the commuter pass, pass it through a machine, check it, and store it again in the commuter pass with the conventional commuter pass. In other words, when passing the ticket gate, if the conventional pass is used as it is, adding and removing the commuter pass becomes an extra work, and passing the ticket gate becomes more complicated than before. As a result, inconvenience was given to users at the ticket gate. In other words, the conventional commuter pass caused problems, as it seemed that the rationalization of ticket gates by mechanization would impose a burden on users.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 The present invention is intended to reduce the complexity of the work of putting out and taking out a commuter pass from the conventional commuter pass, and to develop a commuter pass that allows the user to easily put in and take out the commuter pass with one thumb. is there.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 The feature of the means to solve the problem is that one side of the conventional commuter pass, which basically consists of two sides, has been largely removed, and this side is used as a commuter pass entrance. Hereinafter, the structure will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

FIG.

As shown in FIG.

The wall 3 and the wall 4 are protruded from the base plate 2 having a shape substantially equal to the width a and the length b of the commuter pass 1 at intervals of at least the width a of the commuter pass. Further, the wall 5 is made to protrude from the remaining edge of the base plate 2, and the remaining edge 6 is flat without any wall. On the side of the end side 6, a pinching claw 7 is arranged at the end of the wall 3 with a small gap from the surface of the base plate 2. Similarly, the pinching claw 8 is provided symmetrically to the pinching claw 7 at the end of the wall 4. Similarly, a pinching claw 9 is provided at the end of the wall 5 with a gap from the surface of the base plate 2. These gaps are large enough to accommodate the thickness of the commuter pass 1. Moreover

As shown in FIG. 2, the gap between the pinching claws 7 and the pinching claws 8 becomes smaller toward the end side 6 and contacts the base plate 2 at a point c. The distance between the point c and the inner angle d formed by the pincer 9 and the wall 5 is almost equal to the length of the commuter pass 1. Further, a hole 10 is provided in the center of the base plate 2. The flexibility described above is imparted to the pinching claws 7 and 8 by making the above-described configuration using a plastic material. The function of each part will be described. The base plate 2 has a human bone function of holding and protecting the commuter pass 1 and maintaining the shape of the present commuter pass 11. Further, by using a transparent material, the commuter pass 1 on the base plate 2 can be seen through from the back surface. The pinching claw 7, pinching claw 8, and pinching claw 9 are provided to prevent the commuter pass 1 held on the base plate 2 from falling off. The gap between the base plate 2 and the base plate 2 is set large on the hole 10 side and small on the end side 6 side so as not to slip out. The hole 10 is used when confirming the commuter pass 1 with a finger or the like. In this embodiment, the wall 3 and the wall 4 are continuous smooth surfaces without any gap so as to be smooth when the commuter pass 1 is loaded while sliding. is there. Further, the pinching claws 7 and the pinching claws 8 are independent, but the purpose can be achieved even if they are connected and integrated. Also, a plurality of pinching claws 9 may be provided or connected. The first feature of the structure of the present invention is that the distance between the wall 3 and the wall 4 is equal to the width a of the commuter pass 1 or is slightly larger than that, so that the commuter pass 11 can be reduced in size and handled. Making it easier. Second, the inside dimension e of the pinching claws 7, 8 and 9 is made as large as possible. In the present embodiment, the length is set to 7/8 of the length b of the commuter pass 1. However, it is necessary to balance and set the flexibility of the commuter pass 1 and the ease of putting it in and out. The criterion is that the commuter pass 1 does not fall out of the inner dimension e due to its strength.

As shown in FIG. 2, in the commuter pass 11 of the present invention, the above-mentioned pinching claws are configured symmetrically with respect to the front and back of the base plate 2. Therefore, one commuter pass has two commuter pass entry functions.

[0005]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The present invention has the above structure. This use form will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 4, the commuter pass 1 is placed on the commuter pass 11 of the present invention held in one hand 12 and the corner 13 of the commuter pass 1 is slid on the wall 3 or the wall 4 of the commuter pass 11 in the direction of arrow f. Then

As shown in FIG. 5, the leading end 14 of the commuter pass 1 passes over the pinching claws 7 and 8 of the commuter pass 11. Here, when the direction in which the force of the thumb 15 is applied is returned to the direction of arrow g, the commuter pass 1 hits the wall 5 of the commuter pass 11.

FIG. 6 is loaded as shown in FIG. Based on the above-described method of loading the commuter pass 1 into the commuter pass holder 11, it is shown that the commuter pass 1 is inserted into the ticket gate machine 16.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a place to be taken out.

[0006]

[Effect of the invention]

 In this way, the commuter pass of the present invention can be put in and taken out with one hand, so that the commuter pass can be inserted into and taken out of the ticket gate machine while walking. Therefore, even if the other hand is blocked by cargo, it is easy to pass through the ticket gate with one hand operation. Furthermore, this can alleviate the complicated congestion at the ticket gate. Further, using the structure of the commuter pass, the present invention can be applied as a container for other types of cards such as telephone cards and business cards.
