This invention relates to a coin purse, and has for its genera-l object and purpose to provide a coin purse ofvery simple and inexpensive construction as an accessory for ladies handbags, or which may be independently carried in the pocket and which will enable access to be easily and' quickly had to the coins contained therein and all of the coins visibly exposed for the selection of a single desired coin, without danger of dropping or losing the coins.
More particularly, in the preferred practical'embodiment of the invention, the purse is formed from a single sheet of leather or other flexible material which is stamped or cut to provide an end portion having relatively foldable parts forming the pouch or pocket of the purse and an extension on one wall of the purse whereby said extension and the opposite wall of the purse may be readily-flexed by pressure ofthe fingers while the purse is held in the hand 'so thatthe coins may be dislodged from the purse pocket and disposed in a scattered orseparated relation upon said wall extension ofthe purse and after the selection of.
the desired coin, the remainderl collectively returned to the purse pocket.
Itis also another object in one embodiment of the invention to provide such acoin purse f made from a single-sheet Vof exible material provided upon its opposite endportions withfoldable parts forming pockets having their open sides in opposedv relation so that in the use of -thepurse and the selection` of coins contained therein, the coins maybe movedv from one pocket to the other. The sheet of iiexible material is adapted to be centrally folded tol dispose the opposed pockets in face to face Contact and the walls ofsaid pockets at theirv 10' open ends in Contact with said central part of the flexible sheet whereby said open ends of the pocket willbe securely closed and loss of the coins prevented.

Referring Vin detail to the drawings,the invention as illustrated in its simplest embodiment in Figs. lto 8 of theY drawings consists of a purse having a single coin receiving pocketwliich is produced from a single sheet 'of leather or other flexible material generally indicated at 5. This material is stamped'for cut out by means-of suitable dies to prov-ide a blank ofthe requisite length and width andv which includes an intermediate section 6'of uniform width and an end section 7 at one end thereof preferablysomewhat tapering in width and constituting a closure flap for the purse. At the other end of the intermediate section 6 the blank is provided with a coinparatively wide end section affording porn tions extending laterally` beyond opposite the laterally extending portions of the wid-V edges of the intermediate Vsection 6, the Vcentral part of 'said latter end portion of the blank indicated at 8 constituting one side wall of the purse pocket. The lateral exten;y vsions of this wide end portion of the blank are adapted to be folded along the spaced oblique lines indicated at 9 so as to provide opposite expansible end walls 10 forth'e purse pocket,
when .the part 8 is folded substantially along the li'ne indicated at 1 1Y and disposed in opp'o'sed relation tothe intermediate section 6 of the blank. The outer vertical edges of these expansible end wells 10 of the pocket are permanently Vsecured to the edges of the section 6 which forms the other side wall of the pocket by the lines of stitching indicated at 12. rlhe fold 11 in the material forms the i closed bottom of the purse pocket, andthe side wall 8 of said pocket Vgradually tapers or decreases in width from this closed bottoni upwardlyto the open upper edge Vof the pocket. f Y
As clearly shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings,
ened end of the blank from which the expansible end walls y10 of the purse pocket are formed are provided at the ends thereof con-- tiguous to the fold 11 with the tabs indicated at 13. As shown in Figs'. 6 and 7 of the drawings, these tabs extendinwardly from the lower end to the relatively 'iiexing parts of the end walls- 10l and constitute closures for the gap or space between the lower end vedges of these flexible wall sections and the bottom of the purse pocket, thus effectually precluding the therethrough.
The outer side of the pocket wall 8 and the 'inner side of the flap 7' arepreferably provided with the complemental parts of a suitable fastening means indicated at 14, whereby when the flap is folded downwardly overthe upper open edge of the pocket, it may be securely fastened'and detachably retained in connection with the side wall of the pocket.`
It will be apparent that in view of the fact that the device above describedy is fabricated from a single out or stamped sheet of flexible material, the expensegof manufacture of such a device incident to the time and labor required in its production will be insig-` nificant. By the provision of the elongated intermediate section 6' of the blank aordingan extension from one ofthe side walls of the purse pocket, lwhen the purse is opened and the device held in the palm of the hand, by pressure against ythe lateral edges of the part 6 and the end walls of the Vtions of the blank are possible escape of small coins pocket, said end walls may be expanded and the longitudinal extension of the section 6 from the side wall of the purse bowed or cupped. Thus by tilting the hand, the coins' fabric, and the marginal edgesv of the blankfolded inwardly and stitched to the' liningv sheet to provide a desired finish.
InFigs. 9 to 16 of lthe drawings, l have illustrated another desirable embodiment of the invention, in which the purse while still vformed from a single sheet of material, is
provided with two opposing pockets. Thus the blank 5 is provided with the elongated intermediate body portion G of uniform width and with the widened portion at each of; its ends to forni a pocket wall 8 and the foldable lateral extensions to form the end walls 10 of the pocket, when said end portl-.ereof and the edges of said end walls of the respective pockets secured to the edgesr of the body section 'in the manner above ex# plained. It is thus seen 'from reference to 10 that this construction provides two pockets on the'inner side of the body wall 6 hai/ing their open edges in spaced opposed relation to each other. pockets are provided with 'the complementary fastening elements 14 whereby said pocket walls may be lseparably connected with each other, when the purse pockets are folded in face to face contact as seen in Figs. 11 and 12 of the' drawings. It will further be'observed that when the purseis' thus.
closed, the free edges of the pocket walls 8 and 10 at the open 'sides of the pockets are in contact withthe central fold of the body wall 6 so that, the open sides of the pocket are thus closed against the possible escape of the coins therethrough.
In Fig; 1ll of the drawings, have shown i the closure tabs or extensions 13 on the end' walls of one of the purse pockets extending inwardly as in Figs. 6 and 7, while in Fig. 15`
I show these closure tabsl at 18il extending outwardlyfroin the lower edges of the pocket walls. In this construction, such tab extenf' properly folded with: respect to the intermediate lbony sectionA The walls 8 of the'y ila sions `may be provided on the end walls of" only one ofthe purse pockets, or if vdesired onA the walls of-both pockets. A v ln the use of this form of the device as indicated in F 16, after releasing the fastening isef izo.
means between the two pockets of the purse, it is held in the palm of the hand and pressure exerted against the opposite edges thereof to expand the end walls 10 of the pockets, thus fully opening the inner side of each pocket. The opposite end portions of the body wall 6 are convergently inclined so that the coins Vwill readily slide from yone of the pockets upon the lower central portion of the body wall between the open sides of the two pockets. After selecting the desired coins, the remainder may then be readily shifted into either one of the pockets, and the purse securely closed as shown in Fig. 12 of the drawings. This form of the invention provides a very serviceable and convenient purse, as one of the pockets may be utilized as a container for bills, memoranda, cards and the like.
From the foregoing description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction of my improved purse and its several embodiments here disclosed and the various advantages thereof will be readily understood. It is of course, apparent that if desired, the last described double pocket form of the purse may likewise be provided with a suitable ornamental reinforcing lining o-f silk or other fabric material. The purse may be produced from various ornamental leathers, and provides a simple and inexpensive article of this kind which may be utilized either as an adjunct for ladies handbags or independently thereof as a pocket purse. W'hile I have herein sho-wn and described several embodiments of the essential features of my invention, which are believed to be entirely practical for the purpose in view, it will nevertheless be understood that the same might also be incorporated in various other structural forms, and I therefore, reserve the privilege of resorting to all such legitimate changes therein as may be fairly embodied within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
T claim:
A purse comprising inner and outer pocket walls, said inner wall being of less width than the outer wall at the bottom of the pocket and flexibly connected with said outer wall and decreasing in width from said connected end to its other free end, relatively foldable closures for the sides of the pocket connected to the opposite side edges of said inner wall and tothe edges of said outer wall and expansible under inward pressure applied to the opposite edges of said outer wall to widely space the inner wall at its free end from the outer wall and afford maximum accessibility to the pocket, and said foldable side closures having relatively movable parts disposed between the inner and outer pocket walls at the bottom of the pocket and closing the corners thereof.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed my name hereto.
CHARLES LENFANT.
