Abstract
A combination wallet tool includes a pair of hinged, mating shells which define a closed chamber when closed and latched. The chamber is partitioned to provide areas in which currency, cards and papers may be kept. A money clip is built into at least one of the shells. The mating surfaces of the shells are sealed by an O-ring to keep water from entering the chamber. Recesses which serve as secret compartments are molded into one of the shells and interchangeable partitioned trays are provided for the other shell.
Description
- This application claims benefit of provisional application 61/040435, filed Mar. 27, 2008, and is also a continuation-in-part of copending application Ser. No. 12/030456, filed Feb. 13, 2008.
- This invention relates to a combination wallet and tool kit.
- An object of the invention is to provide a robust, durable, waterproof wallet having not only a compartment for cash, cards and papers, but also a number of removable or deployable tools such as tweezers, a knife, a key holder or the like.
- Another object is to provide a metal wallet which can be used as a defensive weapon.
- These and other objects are attained by a combination wallet tool as described below.
- The invention provides all in one multi-tool functionality, integrated into a wallet. The wallet allows users to incorporate various sets of tools, implements, and attachments in a portable, compact, and waterproof case. The basic wallet may a have built in compass, safety mirror, fire-starter/magnifying glass, lanyard location, and storage for four tools and could be later expanded to more tools. Internally, the wallet has structure defining positions for cash in a money clip folded fashion, and credit cards/business cards.
- In the accompanying drawings,
-
FIG. 1 is an exploded isometric view of a combination wallet tool embodying the invention, showing the outside surfaces of the open wallet; -
FIG. 2 is an isometric view showing the inside surfaces of the open wallet; -
FIG. 3 is an isometric view of the wallet when closed; -
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of a portion of the wallet. -
FIG. 5 is an isometric view of a second embodiment of the invention, showing the wallet closed; -
FIG. 6 is a similar view, showing the wallet partly open; -
FIG. 7 is a view of the wallet fully open; -
FIG. 8 is an isometric view taken from the side opposite that shown inFIG. 7 ; -
FIG. 9 shows the same wallet, with its floors removed; and -
FIG. 10 shows the same wallet, with its floors and trays removed. - A combination wallet tool embodying the invention includes, as shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2 , twoshells FIG. 2 ) passing through holes inprotrusions 16 on either part. The mechanical hinge shown might be replaced with a molded “living” hinge as an alternative. - The wallet shells may be made of plastic, metal (e.g., aluminum or titanium) and/or wood. Details of the wallet's manufacturing will be based on the material(s) selected. For example, if plastic is used, the shells could be injection molded in two pieces (or as a single piece including a “living” hinge) with an insert for the floor of the money clip side. Metal and wood versions may be manufactured as two pieces with an insert for the floor of the money clip side.
- We presently prefer to make the wallet of an injection moldable plastic, preferably a Delrin® acetyl resin. “Delrin” is a registered trademark of the Dupont Corporation. It provides a good combination of creep resistance, strength, stiffness, hardness, dimensional stability, toughness, fatigue resistance, solvent and fuel resistance, abrasion resistance, low wear and low friction.
- Alternatively, the wallet can be made of metal, to make it even more resistant to deformation and loss of sealing. The metal or alloy selection and the method of manufacture is a matter of design choice; the wallet shells can be machines out of blocks of aluminum alloy or titanium alloy so that it can be both strong and light. Other methods such as casting, forging, drawing and stamping might be used, and other metals might be selected for their strength, appearance, manufacturing ease a so forth.
- Regardless of the material chosen, it is contemplated that the overall dimensions of the wallet will be roughly the size of a man's conventional pocket wallet.
- The
shells planar mating surfaces FIG. 3 ). At least one of the planar surfaces has aperipheral groove 22 for receiving a resilient sealing element such as an O-ring 24. At least one of the shells has a central recess surrounded by the planar mating surface so that when the wallet is closed, the components define and interior cavity protected from moisture by the sealing element. - The shells are normally held together by a latch mechanism designed to insure waterproof sealing and prevent unexpected opening. Various type of latches might be used; a presently preferred latch is illustrated. It comprises
structures - In the preferred form of the invention, both of the shells of the wallet are centrally recessed. A
compass 30, amirror 32, a fire-starter/magnifying glass 34, and alanyard hole 36 are built into one shell or the other. At least one shell has apartition 38 defining a space for currency, cards and papers. The partition may be rigid, or it may be a flexible mesh panel as illustrated. - The types of tools which may be made and used with this invention are unlimited. Likely examples, illustrated, are a
key holder 40,tweezers 42, a knife/canopener 44 and ascrewdriver 46. Each tool is made to include a specializedwaterproof base 48 that seats neatly in one of the manufacturedapertures 50 in the shells, preventing entry of water and securing the tool. The bases of the tools preferably are identical so that the tools can be interchanged or replaced by others having the same standard base. - The body of each tool made for this invention must be narrow enough to be inserted through one of the apertures, into the recessed interior of the wallet. The standard base has a cross-section at least as large at, preferably larger than, the rest of the tool, so that the tool, but not the base, can pass through the aperture.
- We presently prefer that the apertures be undercut (see
FIG. 4 ) with their larger portion facing to the outside of the wallet. Theundercut 52 defines a step at the bottom of the aperture which acts as a stop to prevent thebase 48 from being pushed all the way through the aperture. Adepression 54 is formed in the wallet shell at the top of each undercut, to enable a person to grasp the head of a tool, which sits almost flush with the top of the shell. - The aperture and/or the base preferably have a sealing structure to prevent ambient water from entering the wallet through the apertures. The sealing structure illustrated in
FIG. 2 is an O-ring 56 seated in a groove on the base; the O-ring bears against the wall of theundercut aperture 50 when the base is fully seated. Alternative sealing means, such as aflexible rib 56′ (FIG. 4 ) integrally molded on one of the components, might be substituted. Another alternative would be to provide matching slight taper angles on both the apertures and the bases, in which case the undercut would not be necessary and wedging between the base and the aperture would provide both a stop function and sealing. - A further possibility is that the apertures might have neither a taper nor an undercut. This would permit one to remove a tool such as the screwdriver from its stowed position and reseat it backwards in the aperture, with the blade outside of the wallet. Then the wallet body would function as a handle. However, the stopping function of the undercut or taper would be lost and some other way of retaining the tools securely would have to be devised.
- The interchangeability of the tools of this invention gives the wallet some of functionality of a ‘Swiss Army’ knife, and in addition permits the owner to replace one set of tools with another. For example, he or she might ordinarily carry tools useful at the office, and then swap them out for tools useful for fishing on the weekend.
- A second embodiment of the invention is shown in
FIGS. 5-10 . In many respects, it is like the embodiment ofFIGS. 1-4 ; however, its exterior appearance (FIG. 5 ) is slightly different, and thetool receiving apertures 150 are differently placed, having been moved near the corners of the wallet, so that they are now blind holes extending within the perimeter of the frame and not penetrating into the main compartment. The latch 126 (FIGS. 6 and 8 ) has been redesigned, and now amoney clip 160 is fastened to the inside of the rear wall of the wallet. - While the money clip is shown as being made of wire, and in
FIGS. 9 and 10 is secured to the respective shells by clamping screws, we contemplate that the clip might constitute a bight of wire with plain ends which are inserted into holes formed in the shells, so that the money clip can be easily removed in order to remove the partition or substitute one tray for another. - The
conical protrusion 162 at one exterior corner of the wallet is a glass breaker. - A
hinge pin 170 is inserted through holes in the hinge knuckles to interconnect theshells - In
FIG. 7 , one sees the wallet with two removable floors orpartitions FIG. 9 ) if desired to gain access to underlying compartments. - As
FIG. 9 shows, thefront shell 112 of the wallet has a variety of recesses 176-179 molded into it. Small items such as jewels can be secreted in the recesses, and remain hidden from view when the floors and perhaps some currency are in place. - The
rear shell 110 of the wallet has a plain bottom, but it is designed to receive a compartmented tray. One of the several trays 180-183 shown inFIG. 10 may be inserted and then covered with thecorresponding floor 172. This also forms a secret compartment or compartments. The choice of tray will depend on the type of item one expects to carry (e.g., pills, coins, fishing flies). - Since the invention is subject to modifications and variations, it is intended that the foregoing description and the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as only illustrative of the invention defined by the following claims.
