THEODOR C. J. AND ERSEN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
KEY-RING TAG.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 9, 1914.
Application filed June 10, 1913. Serial No. 772,738.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Tnnonon C. J. Aunna SEN, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Key- Ring Tags, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to key ring tags and the object of the invention is to provide means whereby a tag bearing the owners name and address and to which a postage stamp may be affixed may be contained in a small holder or protective device in such a manner that the tag is fully protected from becoming soiled and at the same time may easily be removed from said holder or protective device and used as a tag for mailing the keys to the owner, when they have been lost by him.
To this end the invention comprises in combination such parts and elements as are hereinafter described in detail while reference is had to the accompanying drawing in which 7 Figure 1 is a view of the tag secured to its holding means or staff and showing the tag unfolded. Fig. 2 is a view of the socket member in which the tag is placed after being rolled or folded about the staff. Fig. 3 is a view of the outer protecting cylinder. Fig. 4C is a view showing the folded tag in the socket member, and Fig. 5 is a view of the assembled device attached to a key ring.
In the drawing the numeral 6 represents a tag of suitable strong tape or tag material and upon which the owners name and address may be placed and a postage stamp affixed. The tag may be treated with a thin coat of varnish if desired.
The tag is securely pinched tothe staff 7 which is bent double to retain the tag material and provided with an eye 8.
Fig. 2 shows the socket member 9 which is in the form of a cylinder having a slit 10 and an eye 11. The socket is made of springy material and so formed that the edges 12 have a slight tendency to spring apart. Fig. 3 shows the protecting cylinder 13 having an open end 14 and a closed end 15.
In use the tag is folded or rolled around the staff 7 to form a cylinder which is in serted in the socket member by pressing it in between the edges 12 of the socket. Thereafter the cylinder 13 is pushed down over the assembled tag and socket as shown in Fig. 5. It will be apparent that the cylinder is held on the socket member frictionally due to the slight spring action at the edges 12. Care is taken in assembling that the two eyes 8 and 11 he parallel to one another as shown. Thereafter the device may be attached to the key ring as shown in Fig. 5.
When a stranger finds the lost keys, his curiosity will prompt him to examine the tag device, or the words Pull 0E may be imprinted on the cylinder, causing the finder to pull the cylinder off, after which he can remove the tag from the socket member and the use of the device becomes apparent, or directions may be printed on the ta Treferably, but not necessarily, the length of the socket may be less than the length of the staff as shown in Fig. 4 to facilitate the removal of the tag by grasping hold thereof at the free end.
The eyes 8 and 11 are provided so that only the cylinder will be entirely removed from the key ring and directions may be printed on the tag to put the cylinder back on the socket, leaving the tag exposed.
It will be seen that the device is very sim ple and can be manufactured cheaply, also that it is not bulky or does not take up too much space in the pocket.
Changes in the details may be made within the scope of the appended claim.
I claim As a new article of manufacture a key ring tag comprising a tag member consisting of a staff and a tag, of material adapted to be rolled or folded around said staff and large enough to contain an address and a stamp, a socket member of springy material may be attached to a key ring or other having a slitthrough which said tag memmember. v 10 her may be inserted in the socket member Signed at New York, N. Y. this 6th day and an outer cylindrical protecting member of June 1913.

frictionally retained by the latter, said staff \Vitnesses: and the said socket member each being pro- .IVAN KONIGSBERG, vided With an eye whereby the said parts K. G. LE ARD.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents,
