CARDCASE.
Application filed October 18, 1927. Serial No. 226,992.
This invention relates to card cases. U
One object of the invention is to provide an improved case of light construction for holding cards, or the like thin, fiat articles in neat, compact relation, and permitting a card to be partially ejected in a convenient and expeditious manner by the use of only one hand, for ready withd 'awal by the recipient ot' the card.
A further object of this invention is to actor described, having a holder which can easily be opened for loading with cards, or similar devices, and in which the ejecting means has novel coaction with the holder and is so constructed as to eliminate any possibility of injury to the cards.
A further object of this invention is to provide an improved card case of the character set forth having few and simple parts, which shall be comparatively inexpensive to manufacture, and Withal durable, and ellicient in use to a high degree.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists of the 'tea'turcs of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement ot parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope oi application will be indicated in the following claim.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is shown one of the various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention,
F 1 is a perspective view of a card case embodying the invention, showing the device in the step of ejecting a card.
Fig. is a transverse sectional view of the card case, taken on line 2--2 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the card raise, taken on line 33 of Fig. 2.

Fig. 7 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view ot one end of the card case, as seen from line 7-7 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 8 is a transverse sectional view, similar to Fig. 2, of a modified form of casing and ejector.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the
card case C embodying the invention may be made of any suitable material as, for example, light metal. Said card case comprises a casing 10 in which is positioned a holder 11 adapted to receive a plurality of cards 12, or similar fiat articles. Holder 11 is provided with a follower 14 to normally urge a card into the path of an ejector 13,. slidably supported on casing 10 in a mannor hereinafter appearin". The holder 1.1 1s shaped to receive the :ards 12 snugly, and is preferably of the form of a box section, stamped from a single sheet oi. material toprovide a bottom wall 15, side walls 16, and end walls 17, 18. The trout end wall 17 has anotch 19, of sufficient depth to permit a card to be moved outward from the holder 11, when ejector 13 is actua ted. The rear end wall 18 is formed with notches 20, 21, tor a purpose hereinafter a mearing.
The casing 10 may likewise be stampe from a single sheet of material and includes a top wall. 22 and dependin side walls 23 having inwardly extending anges 2 1 to engage the bottom of the holder 11. Said casing 10 is open at one end 25 thereof to freely receive the holder 11 therethrough, while the other end is closed by a wall 26. Any suitable means is provided on the casing to act as a stop for the holder so that the end walls 18 and 26 will be spaced apart,
for a purpose hereinafter disclosed, said means herein taking the form of prongs 27 struck downward from the top wall 22 of the casing, in proximity to the wall26 thereof. and spaced therefrom.
The ejector 13 consists of a fiat plate 28 of a width approximately equal to that of casing 10, said plate being recessed at 29 to provide a projection 30 havin a foot 31 depending at an angle from said plate. A head or finger piece secured to said plate 1 comprises a stud 32, riveted to said plate, or, in some other well-known manner, se-
cured thereto, a button 32*! being formedon the end of said stud. Said stud is slidably received in a longitudinal slot 33 in the top wall 22 of: the casing 10. Removal of the ejector from said casing is prevented bythe coaction of button 32 with wall 22, the edge portions 34 of said plate slidably engaging the side walls of the card case to he guided thereby.
The follower 14 has depending guide flanges 35 at the ends thereof to ciintaet the Walls 17, 18, of the holder 11 to permit easy sliding movement of the follower when acted upon by the springs 36. The latter may be helical in form, and are seticured to said follower in any suitable manner herein showed as fixed thereto by means ot pins 37. The springs are thus free to rest on the bottom Wall 15 of the holder, urging the "fellow er 14L upward to more cards supported on said follower into the path of the foot 5; ot the ejector.
After the follower 14: has been positioned in holder 11, cards 12 are placed in said holder, the 'l'ollowor being simultaneously depressed. Then, ejector 13 having been moved to the rearmost position in cz'ising 10. in which position the depending toot ill will be positioned in abijitment with wall er; of the casing and behind prongs 27. the holder 11 is inserted in casing 10. with wall 18 entering first. The holder is then pushed into said c. as far as it will go, when the wall portions at slots 21 wil rental-t the prongs 27, while front wall 17 will be positioned to present a closed trout wall. tor the card case C. It it is now desired to dispense a card 12, ejector 13 is slid :torwardly of casing 10 by manipulating button 32". Side edge portionstll oi plate 28 will enact: with the walls 23 ot' casing 10 to guide said plate,toot 31 passin through slot 20 and, engaging the rear edge of a. card 12. Continued movement of button 32 will cause the eieo tion of a card at opening 19 from holder 11.
In cases where ejector plate 28 is made the width oi. a card, the edge portions 3% are guided in the holder 11. being received in contact with walls 1(3 01 said holder. Slots 21, in such case, permit the complete rearward movement of said plate, heinn' slightly greater in depth than the thickness of plate 28. By this latter construcli relatively tight lit between walls 16 ot holder 11 and the top wall 22 and thing es 24.- ot casing 10 is realized.
In F1 8 1s illustrated a turther method for aiding e'eetor 113 in the eas' 110,
In this construction. the top wall 122 oi? casing 110 is stain 'ied to form the groove 39 paralleling slot 133. Ejector 113 5 made of si'ttlicient width to snugly lit in groove 39, and to he guided thereby. The. depth of said groove is slightly greater than the thickness of the plate 1% oil said yiector. thereby completely housing the same. a toot 131 extending from said plate to a. point below the bottom taco of till 122 in order to contact; with cards .12 received, in holder irr'ii eae 111. Holder 111 is provided with a slot 120 to accommodate said foot 131, while casing 11tl may be providei'l with prongs similar to prongs 27 of casing 10.
It desired, foot 331 may he sharpened to a line edge at its end, n'esenting a tlat surface contacting the all Eltl oi? the casing 10. and a bevelled sloping edge, rising toward the front ot the casing. lily this means. it is possible to eliminate the i'iecessity for such spacing .n'ieans is the prongs 27.
It can readily he seen that because of the simple coiriiition, the tiilt may conveniently be held in the palm ol the hand and button 32" :u-tuated by the thumb of the same hand to eject a card.
As ejector 13 is moved hacl: to its initial position in easing 10, after a card 12 has been witlu'lrawn therefrom, t'oot $31 will ride over the face it the next card to he i'lischargod. To avoid e r-arching or marring said. on rd toot Ell, it ay be given a rela tirely large w dth r alucc the frictional pressure on w per unit of width, or the edge oi. the nurv he recessed centr: lly as at 3r? to avoid any contact with the raid at ii inte where the latter carries printed. matter.
will thus be seen that; there is provided a device in which the several objects ot this invention are achieved, and which s well adapted to meet the conditions oil practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above inventii'in, and as various clningcs might be made in the eml'iodiinent ahore set truth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set l'orl'h or shown in the tlt tltlllllltln ylllg drawing to be interpreted as illustrativi and not in a. limiting sense.
Havii'ig thus describedv my invention I claim as new andv desire to secure by Letters Patent:
In a card case, a holder "for :ards. a casing for said holder, an elector comprising a plate having a. toot at, the rear edge thereof, said casing having an mdarnally raised portion in. one wall thereof itorniiug a guiding groove tor said ejector plate in the interior surtaee ol s l all, said groove being decp enough to rouse said i- 'jictor plate out of contact with the lace ot a hard and long enough to permit the tool'- of the ejector to engage the rear edge ol a lard. said groove having a. slot, a hunger piece extending through said shit l'or operating said. ejrci or, and a. tollower in said holder for forcing a card into the path oi said rim-tor.
In testiu'lony whurro'l l. allix my signature.
