KEY RING HOLDER. APPLICATION FILED OCT- 10. 1919.
Patented Jan. 6, 1920.
WITNESSES I A TTORNEYS' JOHN A; EICHSTEDT, OF AKRON, OHIO.
KEY-RING HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jame, 1920.
Application filed October 10, 1919. Serial No. 329,6G1f
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN A. EIOHSTEDT, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Akron, in the county of Summit and State of Ohio, have invented a new and Improved Ke -'-I -ing Holder, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to devices for the carrying of keys and has reference more particularly to a key ring holder formed from a single strip of material adapted to be locked to a persons belt and to a key ring by a single fastening element.
An object of the invention is to provide a key ring holder which may be carried on a persons belt.
Another object of the invention is to provide a key ring holder which is formed from a single piece of material which may be locked to both a persons belt and a key ring by a single fastener.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification in which it is understood that the drawing is merely illustrative of one example of the invention, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a key ring holder locked to a persons belt and to a key ring.
Fig. 2 is a central section through the key ring holder showing it in a locked position.
Fig. 3 is an elevation of the key ring holder showing it in an unlocked position.
Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 10 indicates a strip of material with each of its ends bent back on itself on opposite sides to form two U- shaped sections. One of the U-shaped sec tions is arranged to be hooked over a persons belt and the other U-shaped section is arranged to receive a key ring 11, from which may be suspended one or more keys 12. Each of the ends 13 and 14 of the strip 10 forms a leg of the U-shaped sections and is normally parallel to the strip 10. Pivoted to the leg 13 by means of pin 15 is one leg 16 of a U-shaped member. The ends 13 and 14 may be pressed flat against the strip 10 and the U-shaped member rotated until the leg 16 is parallel to the strip 10, thus fastening the ends of the strip securely to gether between. the leg 16 and the adjacent leg 17 of the U-shaped member. Thus the key ring is locked into one of the U-shaped sections and the belt into the other. Formed on the leg 17 is a lug 18, which engages a depression 19 on the end 14, when the key ring holder is in locked position, thus looking the leg 16 in a position'parallel to the strip 10 and preventing the accidental rotation of the U-shaped member to an unlocked exert a continuous pressure due to their re' siliency tending to spread the legs 16 and 17 apart and force the lug 18 more securely into the depression 19, thereby making it practically impossible to accidentally rotate the leg 16 into an unlocked position.
I would state in conclusion that while the illustrated example constitutes a practical embodiment of my invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the mechanical details herein illustrated, since manifestly the same can be considerably varied without departure from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A key ring holder consisting of a strip of material, each end of said strip being bent back on itself to form a U-shaped section, and a locking member pivoted to said strip adapted to lock the legs of the U- shaped sections to the strip.
2. A key ring holder comprising a strip of material, the two ends of said strip being bent back so as to normally lie substantially parallel to the strip, and a U- shaped member pivotally mounted to one of said ends and arranged to lock the ends of the strip to said strip between its legs in one position and to release the ends of said strip when 'moved about its pivot to a second position.
3. A key ring holder comprising a strip of material, the two ends of said strip being bent back on opposite sides so as to normally lie substantially parallel to the strip, a U-shaped member pivotally mounted on one of said ends and arranged to lock the ends of the strip to said strip between its legs in one position and to release the ends of said strip when rotated about its pivot to a second position, and means to lock the U-shaped member to the strip in the first mentioned position.
4. A key ring holder comprising a strip of material, the two ends of said strip being bent double so as tonormally lie substantially parallel to the strip, a U-shaped member pivotally mounted on one of said ends and arranged to look the ends of the strip to said strip between its legs when in one 10 position and to release the ends of said strip when rotated about its pivot to a second position, a lug formed on one leg of said U- shaped member, and a depression formed on one end of said strip so as to engage the lug 15 when the 'U-shaped member is in locked position.
