To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it known that 1, CHARLES L. Pnmon, Jr., a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Pittsburgh, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have made a new and useful Invention in Key- Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to key holders and particularly to simplified key holders where by any certain key of a number contained thereon may be readily distinguished one from another; said holder also being of such construction that any key may he removed from the holder without removing any of the other keys.
Generally speaking the key holder of my invention comprises a length at chain, or a plurality of: links coupled together at the center of the key holder by a connector such as a sister hook, and dissimiiar members at the opposite ends of the holder, functioning not only to retain the keys on the holder but as a means of readily distinguishing one end of the holder iroin the other thus providing means for readily determining the location of any certain key.
Various features of my invention will he clearly understood by Iei'erence to the accompanying drawings form ng a part of the specification and n which Figure l is a view in side elevation oi? key holder embodying this invention, Figs. 2 and t are simiiar views of modified forms oi said holder and Fig. 4' is a view of a further modification of a. key holder embodying certain features of this invention.
Referring to Fig. 1, the holder consists of a chain made up of a plurality of links l of the right size to readily slip through the eye of the keys 5 to he mntained on the holder. The chain is thrided in halves by means of a sister hook 6 which detachably conne ts the halves toget ur and which may readily pass through the key eyes. The opposite ends of the chain are provided with dissimilar stops T and 8 which are of suiti-ient size to retain the keys on the holder and suiiiciently dissimilar in either shape or size to be readily distinguished one from the other.
Referring to Fig. 2, the holder consists of two links 53 and ll) connected together by means of a sister hook 6: The dissimilar ends 11 and 12 forming stops for the holder in this form are made integral with links 9 and 10.
In the form shown in Fig. 3 the holder consists of two links 13 and 14; formed in the nature of bars having integral e cs 15 and 16 through which the sister hOOC 6 passes. In this form bar 13 is provided with an in tegral end stop 17 while bar link 14 is provided with a disk-like end 18 which serves as an end step.
In the term shown in Fig. l the dissimilar end steps 19 and 20 are joined at .21 and the two series of links 22 and forming key supports are joined together by means of a sister hook 6.
I am aware that numerous forms of key holders have been suggested. in an attempt to produce one in which the keys thereon can be readily separated or isolated but so far as I am aware all of these have been more or less complii ated and bulky and do not permit the removal of other keys. From my disclosure it will be readily apparent that if for instaiue an end key is to be removed the remaining keys can he slid along the holder to the end opposite from the key to be removed, the sister hook disconnected and the desired key removed and the sister hook again connected. By first sliding the keys until the one to be disconnected lies adjacent the sister hook it may be readily removed without disturbing the arrangement of any of the other keys or without removing the same. 'Ihis is common to the three forms of device shown.
lly means of the dissimilar end stops the location of any certain key may be readily determined for use without the necessity of seeing the key sought.
Having thus described my invention what I claim is 1. A key holder comprising multiple links having a detachable connector for joining the links together, and means for idcntiiiying the opposite ends of the links.
3. A key holder comprisin two key sup ports provided with dissimilar end stops, and a detachable connector joining said sup ports.
3. A key holder comprising two lengths of chain, av detachable connector for joining said lengths together, and dissimilar end stops For the opposite ends of the joined chains.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto subscribed my name this 17th day of March, 1919.
