KEY CASE.
This iniention relates to improvements in cases Vtor keys and thc like and ,is partcula ly concerned with iu'iiuorcinents in the construction ot the case proper as distinguished troni the `lief; holders and the manner in which they are mounted.
'lhis invention is also a development ot the intentions disclosed in United fitates lrla'teuts lflos. 1. 1),. B7 and 1,498,488 Wanted to nie on lanuarji' 30, 1929 and June l?. 19221;. respectively. The invention, in common i with that if losed in `the tiret inlined patent, scelte to celine and liinit the ylines otY told o1 the enclosing' 11ans. Furthern'iore, the invention, in coinn'ion with that disclosed in 'the second named patent. to define and lin'iit the lines et 'told ot the flans primarily at the ends or the case, learinti seine 'treedour interniediate such ends to `pern'iitthe ease to bulzege and accommodate the mass due to the overlapinng nortions o't the keys `at this location. i he pr sent iiiifentiou, acairdinel to one ica ynre thereot goes one step turther und is characterized in that the case is so constructed that the eilt-retire `feriineter ot its enclosure is to seine desiree eXtensible points inte liuto the eiids oit the c; se, whereby to acconiinodate the mass due tothe overlapnine' nortions o'l the keys at or near the central aart o the ease. While the 1perimeter oit the lencres re is maintained sulistautially I const it ac iacei'it such ends to iuinirnize the chance oli keys and key holders inoyine' out oi the case when the latter is closed.
riccordine` to another feature ei lthe invention. the i i\ made en ot tivo `strips ot flexible one ot which oiins the nach oi and one ot' th flaps and the other nich oyerlaiiis the lmet'. to V torni a reentoi'cingr n'ieinlier theretor and extends hei'ond the latter to 'torni the other flap.
liccordingg to another ieature et the invention. the oy ,rlaimed iliortions ot the strips may he so fastened. together as to afford iziocliet therehetufeen tot' the reception ot license and registration papers and the like.
rlhe invention Will be disclosed with ret erence to the accompanying drawingsl in whiche- Figs. 1 and 2 are trout and rear el tioi ii views, resiiiecti'v'ely et an operi eiollietljimig; the "inventiong Ill) File'. 53, is a top plan View thereof;
Fi is a sectional plan View taken on 'the line 11m-it ot Fig. 2;
lligs. 5A and t3 are Views taken similarly to Fig'. 2 and show slight modifications of the invention; and
Figs. Z and 8 are rear and eide elevational views, respectively, ot a closed and Well loaded key case. illustrating the bulge in the case and the desirability tot* the provision 'for extension ot the perimeter ot the enclosure near the center oit the case.
Referring; to these drawings; the case inade up of two strips 1() and 11 of flexible material, suchv as leather or the like. These tiro strips, Wh ich are usually ot equal Width, are partially oi'erlapped as indicated, in such a manner that the non-overlapping` portions are extended in opposite directions and the side edges 12 ot the overlapped portions lie in substantially coincident relation. The overlapped `portions are then fastened to gether along, or adjacent to, their coincident margins, as by the stitehinggs 13 (see Fig'.- 2). The result that the strip forms a baci; 111, to which the key holders 15 are attached as by the plate 16, such back having a foldable 'flap 1T and being reentoreed by the overlapped portion 18 oit the strip 11, the portion 18 having a toldable flap l19. The flaps 1? and 19 are toldable over the back 14%. in overlapping relation and may be se cured together in the Vusual manner by the inteil'eugrageable fasteners 20. i
it is to be noted that the end edge 21 oit each strip is unsecured tothe other strip and it is this arrangement which permits extentsion of the perimeter oit the' key enclosure aiiorded hy the case when closed. The. en* tensible` feature may be best appreciated from a consideration oi Fi r .`2. It the iiaps 17 and 19 are erased adjacent the fasteners 20 and `pulled in opposite directions, the end' edges 21, being unsecured as described, can yield and may assume positions such as those .indicated by the vdot and dash lines 21.
e Thus, the distance between the fasteners 20 may he increased over the normal distance illustrated and it 'follows that the perimeter of the enclosure may be increased, as may be necessaryf to accor nodatethe keys contained i therein. The e suspended 'from key heldere ttt otenet) te eoine extent and Cil the case to bulge something in tlie fashion illustrated at 22 in Fig. 8, at or near the center oi the case.` As a matter ot' fact, the greatest overlap `ot the keys is somewhat above the center of the case, the mass being greater at this location due to the heads of thekeys. In Fig. T the end edges 2l are shown as drawn together intermediate their ends to provide for the extension of the perimeter of the key enclosure.
The lines of fold of flaps 17 and 19 are defined at opposite ends of the case and the flaps are prevented from folding along other y lines which are closer together by the fastening together ot the overlapped portions o1 strips 10 and ll. The perimeter ot' they key enclosure adjacent the ends of the case is there-tore constairt7 or substantiallyso.
The space between the overlapped portions of strips l() and l1 may be utilized as a pocket for the reception of automobile registration and license papers or the like. For the purpose o'f preventing these papers from sliding ont from one side of this pocket, the edge 2l oli strip 1l may be partially stitched near its ends to strip 10, as shown at` 23. Stops are thus 'formed for the purpose described. At the saine tinie,'the central portion of edge 2l is free to permit eX- tension of the perimeter of the key enclosure. substantially as above described. The flap v1S) when folded closes the other side of the pocket.
A pocket which can be completely closed, may be provided Without interfering with the extension of the flaps, as shown in Fig. Il. A strip 25, of thin, soft lining leather, is doubled over, as shown, and inserted in the space between the overlapped portions 14 and 1S to :form a. pocket. The folded strip 25 `will be held at its ends by the stitchings i3 and its other :free edges a-restitched7 one to portion 18 and the other to portion 14.
' The liap 19 servesto close this pocket, when Fal CJL
the key case is closed.
lt the extensionot the flaps .is not desired and one desires to utilize the overlapped strips l() and l1 as a simple and advantatgfeons means oi forming a pocket in a key case, then the edge 2l of strip 11 may be entirely stitched torstrip lO as indicated at `2G in Fig. rthis construction provides a desirable reen'l'orcen'ient for back 1l as well as afiording a sate and convenient pocket.
The invention has been disclosed herein, in a preferred embodiment with detailed va ria-tions, for illustrative purposes, bnl; the scope olthe invention is defined by the ap- 2. In a key case, a case made up of tivo pieces of flexible material partially crerlapped with the corresponding side edges ot the overlapping portions et each in substantially coincident relation, said overlapl'iing portions being Afastened together along the coincident side edges, and otherwise nn secured, and key supporting;l means mounted on one of said overlapping portions.
3. In a key case7 a strip oitl flexible material forniing" a back ior the case and one liap, a second strip oi' Horrible material part oi' which is overlapped behind said back and the rest of which forms the other lap the corresponding side edges of the overlapped portions of said strips being fastened to getlier and the ends of said strips being free, and key supporting means mounted on said back. V
el. In alrey case, a stripott flexible material forming a back for the case and a flap disposed on one side thereof and :toldable relatively thereto, a second strip et' 'toldable material overlamiinen said back and disposed behind it and having a flap extending,r beyond the opposite side ol said back, a snpport for key holders secured to said back, said flaps being foldable in overlapping relation over the back to enclose the key holders, the side edges of the overlappinar,lr portions ol said strips being 'fastened together lo limit and dcline the lines ol 'fold ol' said liaps at opposite ends ot the case, the ends ot' said strips being,r free to permit extension oil the el'l'ceti ve perimeter olf the case between said ends.
il lolder for key cases and the like, made up oil tivo strips oll flexible material so overlapped as to provide a double back for the key ci., and llaps on opposite sidi; thereof, said strips being so connected aa to permit extensioi'i of the l'laps intermediate `their ends, and supporting means l'or lacy holders mounted on one oil said baffles-.p
