Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a container for storing and taking out commuter passes, etc. More specifically, in recent years, commuter passes with magnetic memory for automatic ticket gates and bank cash cards, etc., are often required to be taken in and out. It relates to a container that makes it convenient to store and take out storage tickets.

Recently, in order to save labor and provide quick response processing that prevents malfunctions,
Automatic ticket gates and cash processing machines are becoming permanent, but the most important thing is the containers for commuter passes and cash cards.
Currently, there is no way to improve the storage and retention of such items, and users are still using old-fashioned regular commuter pass holders and other devices.

Needless to explain, with conventional commuter passes, etc., you are forced to do tedious finger work to take out and store your tickets, which can be extremely inconvenient and sometimes irritating if you are carrying luggage in your hand. be.

The present invention therefore aims to provide a container in place of conventional commuter pass holders, in which the main point of improvement is in the retrieval and re-storage of tickets.

When the preferred mode of use of the present invention is followed, the voucher can be easily retrieved and re-stored by finger action of the thumb and forefinger of one hand.

The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be explained below; Fig. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of the container of the present invention, Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line ■-■ of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3. Figure 4 is an exploded perspective view of the outer container and holding/guiding plate of the container of the present invention, and Figure 4 is a front view showing the state in which it is used. Figure B shows the state immediately before the board is pulled upwards, Figure B shows the state in which the holding/guide plate has been pulled up to the highest position, Figure C shows the state in which the stored ticket is removed from state B, and the same figure shows the stored ticket in the state shown in Figure B. The figures are shown again in the state in which they are housed within the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the container of the present invention includes a container body 1 composed of double inner and outer plates 11 and 12 sandwiching a plate-shaped space 2, and a container body 1 that is inserted into the plate-shaped space 2 so as to be vertically slidable. A holding/guiding plate 3 for the stored ticket T, a long groove 41 bored in the container body 1 to restrict vertical sliding of the holding/guiding plate 3 with respect to the container body 1, and the holding/guiding plate. 3, an outward protrusion 420 having a sufficient length to protrude from the long groove 41, and an inward protrusion 42 that comes into sliding contact with the surface of the plate 12.
1, a ridge 32 attached to the inside of the top of the holding/guiding plate 3, and a clip 5 attached near the top of the surface of the plate 10. The storage tickets T such as
This relates to a storage/retrieval container for commuter passes, etc., which is held between the back surfaces of the pocket P and is slidable up and down, and the container body 1 is clamped and fixed to the upper edge of the pocket P by the clip 5.

Note that the reference numeral 4 is a sliding guide consisting of a long groove 41 and a protrusion 42.

In the above configuration, the inward protrusions 421 are provided to slide against the surface of the plate 12 to prevent the holding/guiding plate 3 from sliding downward due to its own weight even when it is pulled up to the highest position. There is.

The inner and outer double plates 11 and the holding/guiding plate 3 should preferably be made of a transparent material such as celluloid, polyvinyl chloride, acrylic resin, or the like.

The top of the plate 11 is slightly inclined 110 outward to facilitate taking out and storing the storage ticket T.

As the storage ticket T, an automated commuter pass or a cash card having a magnetic memory T1 on the back side is preferably used.
Car license cards, cards, and other cards that require access are also freely available.

In order to prevent the magnetic memory T1 from being damaged by sliding, a protective plate (not shown) made of a soft material such as lashes may be attached to the back surface of the plate 11 or the front surface 31 of the holding/guiding plate 3.

Next, the instructions for using the container of this invention are shown in Figure 4 A to A.

Let me explain.

In order to securely hold the container in a clothing pocket (such as a pocket in a handbag), a clip 5 is used to secure the container in a clothing pocket P.

The plate 11 is designed to have a length such that the top of the plate 11 slightly protrudes from the upper edge of the pocket P in this state.

In this state, the index finger f1 of the right hand holds down the upper part of the container body 1, and the thumb f2 holds the ridge edge 3 at the top of the back surface of the guide plate 3.
2 (Fig. 4A).

Next, from this state, while pressing and holding the holding/guiding plate 3 with your thumbs, pull it upwards while changing your index finger f1 to the storage ticket T and holding it with both fingers f1. When holding/guiding plate 3 and storage ticket T are held between the inside and outside using f2, lift upwards.
The protrusion 42 is stopped in a state where it is locked to the upper end groove edge of the long groove 41, and the uppermost position is determined.

In this case, the sliding contact between the protrusion 421 and the plate 12 allows the holding and
The guide plate 3 is prevented from falling due to its own weight [
Figure 4B].

Next, both fingers f1. While holding the f2, remove it from the holding/guiding plate 3 while pinching the ticket T, and administer it into an automatic ticket gate (not shown) [FIG. 4C].

In this case, since the magnetic memory T1 is on the back side of the stored ticket T immediately after being extracted, the normal procedure can be used when inserting it into the automatic ticket gate.

Similarly, the storage ticket T taken out from the automatic ticket gate has the magnetic memory T□ on the back side.

Therefore, in the same way as when administering this storage ticket T, insert the index finger f and the parent ttN.

While holding the plate between the two and sliding it along the surface 31 of the holding/guiding plate 3, Use f2 to hold/guide plate 3
When pressed down together, it can be fitted between the plate 11 of the container body 1 and the holding/guiding plate 3.

[Figure D]. In the above operation, the lower end of the storage winding is located at the protrusion 4.
Since it is held by 20, it can be expected to be convenient because there is no chance of it falling off.

As described above, the present invention has a holding/guiding plate 3 for a container body 1.
is made to be able to slide freely over a certain range in the vertical direction, and the storage ticket T is housed between the surface of this holding/guiding plate 3 and the back surface of the plate 11 of the main body 1, and this holding/guiding plate 3 The storage ticket T can be taken out and re-stored by vertical movement of the pocket P. In this work, in this case, the container main body 1 is clipped to the upper edge of the pocket P by the clip 5. All you have to do is put your finger on the ridge 32 of the upper edge of the holding/guiding plate 3 and pull it upward, and when it reaches the top, the holding/guiding is done by the sliding friction force of the inner protrusion 421 against the plate 12. Since the plate 3 does not slide off even under its own weight, it is possible to easily and accurately remove and re-storage the storage ticket T, and this brings good news to the automatic insertion and removal of cards, which has been extremely inconvenient up until now. It is guaranteed to bring.
