UNITED STATES PATENT @FFIQE.
BERNARD D. WILLIS, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
SAFETY PURSE-HOLDER.
Application filed September 19, 1912.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BERNARD D. WVILLIS, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of Chicago, Cook county, Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Safety Purse-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in means for holding articles in pockets, and particularly in means for holding pocketbooks therein from falling out when stooping over or from being pulled out without warning.
My invention relates to a purse or wallet protector in particular, for preventing the loss by theft or accident.
In the accompanying drawings in which similar letters refer to like parts, Figure 1 is a view of my improved device. Fig. 2 shows the device attached to a wallet. Figs. 3 and A are other forms of the device.
The device, as seen in Fig. 1, is constructed of a single piece of wire or other suitable material bent to form a fastener A at one end, a catch B at the other, and a loop in between. The fastener A is for clasping the wallet C at the crease, as shown, and the loop D fits inside for support. The latch B springs out and catches in the lining as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, the distance from A to B being preferably greater than the mouth of the pocket. In Fig. 4: there is shown an adjustable slide piece on the lefthand limb for adjusting the device to pockets of varying sizes. The slide may be used for advertisements.
It will be observed that the form illustrated in Fig. 4.- is similar to the form shown in Fig. 1. The top edge of the sliding member upon which an advertisement may be inscribed, and particularly its left extremity, corresponds to the latch B in Fig. 1. It will be observed that the width of the guard can be varied by moving the slide either up or down and to the right and to the left.
It will be seen that by moving the slide toward the top is the equivalent of moving Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 8, 1917.
Serial No. 721,166.
the elbow B which engages the inner lining of the pocket to the right, and in this way the device may be made to fit pockets of different sizes. By lowering the slide it has the same efiect as moving the shoulder to the left and thereby adapting the device for smaller pockets. The same result may be obtained with the device as constructed in Fig. 3 by stretching the same; that is, by pulling the two limbs at the extreme left and right; that is, the two limbs that are provided with hooked ends.
What I claim is 1. A guard having a wire bent into a loop, one side arranged for engaging a pocket book, another one of the sides provided with a pocket engaging shelf extending substantially horizontally.
2. A guard having a wire bent into a loop, one side arranged for engaging a pocket book, another one of the sides provided with a pocket engaging shelf extending substantially horizontally, said mentioned sides adjustable toward and away from each other.
8. A pocket guard having a pair of pocket engaging limbs, a link connecting said limbs, said link adjustable, whereby the space between the limbs may be varied.
4. A pocket guard having two limbs, one provided with a pocket book engaging clasp and the other with a pocket engaging shoulder, said shoulder slidably mounted upon the other of said limbs, said slidable shoulder provided with space for advertising purposes.
5. A pocket guard having two limbs, one provided with a pocket engaging clasp and the other with a pocket engaging shoulder, said shoulder slidably mounted upon the other of said limbs.
Signed by me at Chicago, Cook county, Illinois, this 14th day of June, 1912.
