KEY HOLDER Filed Aug. 29, 1932 Fig. 1
INVENTOR JOf/Oh 6.726zrroalzy A TTORNE Y Patented May 16, 1933 UNITED STATES JOSEPH C. VAVROSKY, OF ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA KEY HOLDER Application filed August 29, 1932. Serial No 630,752.
The present invention relates to a pocket key holder.
Various types of key holders, of the same general type as that embodied in the present invention, have been developed heretofore,
and such developments are shown in'Patents No. 1,579,153, and No. 1,619,582. These pre-.
vious developments, while having certain features of the present invention, are limited to the number of keys they can carry and retain the spring pressure on any number of keys contained in the device from one to the maximum number which such device is capable of holding.
An object of the present invention is to make an improved and simplified key spring clip key holder.
In order to attain this object there is provided, in accordance with one feature of the invention, a U-shaped spring clip having a post carried by the outer end of one side thereof, and having an opening in the other side, through which the post is adapted to freely pass to permit the ends of the spring clip to come into contact with each other.
These and other features of the invention will be more fully pointed out in the following description and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
key holder embodying the present invention. Figure 2 is a view in side elevation of the device showing the ends of the spring clip separated to accommodate a large number of keys, and in dotted lines showing the position of the spring clip when a small number of keys are to be carried, two keys being indicated in dotted lines; and
Figure 3 is an enlarged, longitudinal, sectional view of the ends of the spring clip showing a post mounted thereon.
Referring to the drawings in detail, a U- shaped spring clip 1 is formed to have the ends 2 and 3 thereof normally resiliently held 5 together to contact with each other. A post 4 is provided with a shoulder 5 and a reduced lower portion 6 which is adapted to fit closely within an opening 7 in an end 3 of the spring clip 1, and is riveted as at 8 to rigidly and securely hold the post in position Figure 1 is a view in perspective of the thereon. The opposite end 2 of the spring clip is provided with an elongated opening 9 adapted to freely receive the post 4 andto permit the ends of the spring clip to be separatedwithout interference with the post 4.
In placing a key on the container, such as the key 10, the ends 2 and 3 of the spring clip are separated sufiiciently to raise the end portion 2 of the spring clip above the post 4 sufficiently to permit the key to be slipped over the post 4 below the end 2, so that the 0st 4 enters the opening normally provide in the end of the key. The ends of the spring clip 1 are then released and the resiliency of the spring forces the ends toward each other, as indicated in dotted lines in Figure 2, to resiliently grip the key between the ends of the spring clip. Any additional number of keys may be mounted on the post 4 in a similar manner up to the limit imposed by the height of the post.
In carrying the key holder in the pocket, all the keys are swung so as to have their blades between the sides of the spring clip. When it is desired to use a key, the desired key may be swung out to the position indicated at 10 in Figure 2, and, after using, returned to its position between the sides of the spring clip.
I claim:
1. A key holder, comprising a U-shaped spring clip having the free ends thereof normally in resilient contact with each other, a post fixedly mounted in one end of said clip, the other end of said clip having an elongated opening therein adapted to receive said post to permit free relative separation of the ends of said clip. V
2. A key holder comprising two leaves connected by an integral flexible portion, the free end of one of said leaveshaving rigidly attached thereto a stud slidably receivable within an opening in the opposing end of the other of said leaves, said leaves being by their resiliency capable of direct contact with each other and bearing directly upon one or more keys pivoted between them upon said stud.
In testimony whereofI aflix my signature.
