WILLIAM J. LARAW'AY, OF GRAND RAPIDS, ITICEIGAN.
CASE FOR- IDENTIFICATION PAFEES.
Application filed August 30, 1924. Serial No. 735,1?25.
( all 107mm 2'25 may concern;
Be it known that I, VVILLIAM H. LARA- wixr, a citizen of the United States, resid ing at'Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cases for Identification Papers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in appliances for carrying the drivers license, identification cards, and other necessary papers in automobiles, and its objects are: first, to provide a means whereby these papers may be carried without danger of excessive wear, as would occur it the same were carried in the pocket; second, to provide a means whereby the said papers will be protected from moisture, as in heavy rain storms; third, to provide a means whereby said papers may be carried without danger of being removed by others than those having the right to remove them, and, fourth, to provide a means whereby said papers may be readily accessible by the proper parties when necessary to exhibit them.
1 attain these objects by the arrangements and construction of parts shown in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is a top plan of the implement attached to the implement board of an automobile. Fig. 2 is a like view of the implement case with the enclosing cap removed, and the actuating band shown in section. Fig. 3 is a sectional elevation oi the case on the line 33 of Fig. 2, showing the position of the storage reel within the case. Fig. 4 is an end view of the enclosing cap. Fig. 5 is an end view of the locking slide. Fig. 6 is a sectional elevation of the enclosing cap, and Fig. 7 is a back elevation of the enclosing case showing an elongated bolt hole or slot therethrough.
Similar reference numerals indicate similar parts throughout the several views.
At 3 I have shown the enclosing case which is provided with a bolt hole or slot 21 in the back side for the application of a bolt, as 20, by means of which it may be securely connected with the implement board 1 of an automobile, wit-h the block 2 as an intermediate support between the case 3 and the implement board. The bolt hole 21 is shown as a slot in Fig. 7 to provide for the longitudinal adjustment of the case upon the implement board.
At the open end of the case 3 I make a longitudinal slot 23 which terminates in a cross slot 22 some distance back from the end oi": the case for the free passage of the actuating knob 7 which is securely connected with the inner sleeve 10 for the purpose of making said. sleeve revolve within the case 3 to lock the enclosing cap 5 in place upon the ease. The locking elements on the case and the cap consist of the inner sleeve 10 having a T formed slot, as shown at 11-12 corresponding with a like slot in the case, andinturned lugs 17 formed in the cap in position to 'be passed into said slots, after which the cap may be revolved to pass the lugs into the side slots 12 in the case, and the inner sleeve 10 is then revolved with the knob 7 carrying the knob stem 7 into the slot 22 so that the sleeve 10 closes the slot 11 and itbecomes impossible to remove the lugs 17 from the slots 12. It will be noted that the stem 7 of the knob 7 passes through the outer sleeve 4, and the slot 22 in the case, and is securely connected with the inner sleeve 10 so that th two sleeves, 4 and 10, must revolve together. To further insure the locking of the cap on the case I place a revoluble disc 18 in the cap to be operated by a knob 6. Thisdisc has notches 19 in it for the passage ofthe lugs 16, when the disc is made to revolve sufficiently to \carry the notches away from the lugs which requires the return of the disc into normal position before the cap can be removed, thus the cap is doubly locked when the disc is used.
The index symbols shown in the case S at 8 and in the sleeve 4; at 9 are designed as indexes with which to set the sleeves for locking and unlocking the cap, it being so arranged that a given index upon the sleeve at must register with a given index upon the case 3 to unlock the cap and allow it to be removed from the case.
At 13 I have shown the identification papers which are wound upon a reel 14 in such a manner that they may be readily placed in to, or taken from the case when the ca 5 is removed from the case. I also find it advantageous to place a spring at the end or" the reel 1% to start the reel out of the case when the cap is removed, as it would be difficult to pass the fingers into the end of the case and pull the reel out when wishing to remove it to exhibit the identification papers.
In Fig. 3 I have shown the reel and identification papers as pressed well back in the ion case for the purpose of disclosing the T formed slots 11 and 12 in the end of the case and the inner sleeve 10, though the end of the reel 14: should press forcibly against the cap 5 when the said cap is in place on the case 3.
The sleeves & and 10 are connected by the valve stem 7 and are revoluble upon the case 3 tothe extent of the length of the slot 22, less the diameter of the knob stem. The sleeves may, if desired be removed from the' case by passing the stem 7" out through the slot 23, but this cannot be done until the sleeves are revolved into position so the slots 11 and 23 registertogether and the cap 5 is revolved into position 'so the lugs 17 regis ter Withthe said slots.
To unlock the case and remove the cap 5 it is necessary, first, to revolve the sleeves 4: and 10 until the proper index symbols at 8 and 9 register, then the cap 5 7 Q volved until the lugs 17 are carried out of the slots 12 and into position to pass out through the slots 11, and the disc 18 is revolved so the {slots 19 will register with the lugs 16, when the cap may be removed and the record 13 taken from the case.
The sleeve a is closed so that none of the slots in the case or in the inner sleeve are visible, hence the necessity and advantages of the index 8 and 9 to indicate when the cover may be removed from the case.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new in the art, is:
1. In a case for storing and guarding identification papers in automobiles, an outer case having one end closed and the other end must be rebile, a revoluble sleeve within the open end 4 of the case, and a closed revoluble sleeve outside or" the case near the open end therei of, a knob securely mounted in said outer sleeve and said inner sleeve, a slot in the inclosing case for the passage of the stem of the knob from the outer sleeve into the inner sleeve, T formed slots through the case and the inner sleeve near the open end of the case, a removable cap for covering the open end of the case, lugs formed to project inwardly at the rim of the cap'and to interlock with the ends of the case and sleeve adjacent to the slots in the case and sleeve, a reel for storing the identification papers, and indexes on the outer sleeve and 5 the case for identifying the locked position and the unlocked position of the said sleeve upon the case. or
2. In combination with the elements covered in claim 1, a starting spring at one end of the reel, a revoluble disc mounted in the enclosing cap of the case, said disc having notches in the periphery thereof, and lugs formed to project inwardly from the endcof the inner sleeve to pass through the notches on the disc in such a manner that when the disc is made to revolve the lugs will be made to engage the back surface of the disc and to lock the enclosing cap in place upon the case.
