A. SCHICKERLING IDENTIFICATION CARD CASE Jan. 4, I
Filed July 19, 1926 Patented Jan. 4, 1927.
tihtii'ftfi STATES ALFRED SCHICKERLING, OF SGARSDALE, NEW YORK.
IDENTIFICATION-CARD CASE.
Application filed July 19, 1826.
My present invention relates to the type of card case disclosed in Letters Patent of the United States, No. 976,605 granted to me November 22nd, 1910, and designed primarily as a closable receptacle for means of individual identification to be carried upon the person, as for instance, lodge or fraternity cards or certificates, passes, tickets, passports, etc.,the object of these improvements being to simplify, cheapen, and render more compact and effective theconstruction and arrangement of the component parts of the device, while providing for the inclusion therein, not only of acard or certificate of the character designated, but also of a photograph of the owner so as to insure positive identification upon occasion, all as hereinafter fully set forth and described and claimed specifically.
In the accompanying drawings I illustrate a practical embodiment of the essential features of my inventionin an identification card case or certificate holder of the character designated, although I do not limit myself to the identical configuration of component parts shown herein by way of exemplification, since changes in, minor details may be made, and equivalent mechanical ex pedi-ents resorted to, with like results, and without departing from the spirit and intent of my invention in this respect.
WVith this understanding Fig. 1, represents a side elevation of my identification holder, closed;
Fig. 2, an elevation of the same as opened up and extended lengthwise, showing the interior structure without the insert;
Fig. 3, is a view similar to Fig. 2, showing a portrait card partly inserted in its frame;
Fig. 4, is a transverse section taken upon plane of line M, Fig. 3;
Fig. 5, is a view similar to Figs. 2 and 3, showing a certificate sheet inserted in its holding means preparatory to folding;
Fig. 6, is a transverse section taken upon plane of line 66, Fig. 0;
Fig. 7, is a view similar to Fig. 2, but with the portrait card and certificate slip in their proper relative positions, the certificate slip being doubly folded preparatory to the closure of the case, as in Fig. 1.
Fig. 8, is a longitudinal section taken upon plane of line 88, Fig. 7, but upon an enlarged scale, and with thicknesses aug wanted to more clearly illustrate the fame Serial No. 123,424.
tion and useof the device, considered in a unitary sense.
It is to be understood that by the term identification card as herein used I in tend to include any form of foldable card or certificate of a personal character, adapted to be doubled twice upon itself, thereby decreasmg its compact form to one fourth pied by the folded card, whereas in my present construction and arrangement of parts only one section of the holder is necessary for the accommodation of the folded identification card, the other section of the ease being utilized as a frame and support for a photograph or picture of the individual to whom the card or certificate refers.
My new identification case, considered in a unitary sense, consists of two basic cover sections A, B, hinged together at their con junctive transverse edges so as to be turnable as related to each other on the common pintle it, (see Fig. 7). Each of these sec tions A, B, comprises a basic plate the edges of which are inturned to form a flange circumscribing a dish-shaped depression for the accommodation of a card or folded certificate as hereinafter set forth.
lhus the left hand section A, designed for the accommodation of the certificate C, is formed with an inturned flange at, creating a tray for the reception of one of the quadruple folds of the certificate C, which is held in place therein by means of a retaining plate a, soldered or otherwise secured rigidly to the outer end edge and to one longitudinal edge of the flange a, as shown more particularly in Figs. 2, 3 and 5, of the drawings. This retaining plate a, overlaps the quarter fold of the certificate C, as positioned in the section A, of the holder, and is formed with a transverse extension a adjacent to the inner end of the section and constituting a straight edge and guide for the final fold of the certificate, and also with a longitudinal extension a adjacent to the otherwise open lower longitudinal edge of said section and constituting a straight edge and guide for the preliminary or medial longitudinal fold of the certificate C, as will be understood by reference more articularly to Fig. 5, of the drawings. .fhsse twe extensions a ar at the retain ing plate a, facilitate the accurate folding oi the certificate C, and function also to hold the folded certificate in proper aligned position within and upon what may thus be designated as the certificate section A, of the holder.
lVhat may hence be designated by way of comparison, as the portrait section B, of the holder, consists essentially of a tray formed with a circuinscribing inturned flange Z), to the outer end and longitudinal edges of which is rigidly secured a retaining frame plate Z), for engagement with the edges of a card P, bearing a photograph or portrait of the individual whose signature is upon the certificate C, so as to establish absolute identification of the individual upon occasion.
The open inner extremity of the portrait retaining traine plate Z), is preferably formed with a transverse member 6 adjacent to the inner end oi the section B, although this cross member 0 is not absolutely essential, since the cdgesot the portrait card'P, may obviously be inserted under and held in place by the longitudinal and end members of the frame.
The two sections A, B, are held in closed relationship by means of a snap tongue on one part engaging with a corresponding notch on the other part, as for instance, by the snap tongue 6'', on the outer end or the portrait section B, fitting in the notch a formed for the purpose in the outer end of the certificate section C, in the arrangement shown in the drawings, which also show the said ends of the sections provided with finger balls 7), and a", to facilitate the opening of the holder. An eyelet or loop it, may also be provided on a knuckle of the hinge, whereby the holder may be attache: to a chain.
What I claim as my invention and d to secure by Letters Patent, is:-
As an article of manufacture, a folda'cle identification 'ard case of the character designated, comprising a certificate section and a portrait section hinge-connected, the certificate section consisting of a flanged tray having an integral retaining plate tor-incl with lateral and longitudinal straight edge l'old extensions for engagement with a certificate, said lateral extension being disposed adjacent the hinge, and the portrait section consisting of a flanged tray formed with a card retaining frame integral therewith, substantially in the manner and for the pur poses set forth.
