3 Claims.
The invention relates to a utility case, and more especially to an all-purpose pencil carrier or holder.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, wherein a number of pencils can be conveniently carried, ready for service and selection, either on the person or upon a support, such as a desk or the like. the device when worn on the person prevents the wearing of holes in the pockets, the points of the pencils being protected and prevented from puncturing a garment during the carrying thereof.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, wherein each pencil or other writing instrument is separately confined, and is readily accessible for handy use, the device being novel and unique, and the pencils when held thereby are secure and in order.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, wherein the holding of the pencils eliminates breaking thereof when carried in their orderly manner.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, which is simple in construction, thoroughly reliable and efiicient in purpose, strong, durable, neat in appearance, enabling a pencil to be selected with dispatch, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view, the in-- vention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter set forth in detail, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which show the preferred and. modified forms of construction thereof, and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a front elevation of the device constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a side view.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrows,
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 3 showing the swinging prop partly extended.
Figure 5 is a fragmentary perspective view of the prop, detached.
Figure 6 is a sectional view taken on the line 6-6 of Figure 3 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 7 is a rear elevation of the device.
Figure 8 is a sectional view taken on the line 88 of Figure 7 looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 9 is a side view showing the device in standing position on a support.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawings.
Referring to the drawings in detail, A designates generally the device constructed in accordance with the invention in its entirety, and in this instance, comprises a flat faced substantially rectangular shaped casing Ill, having the rounded corners H and edges 12, respectively, while the front face I3 is solid, and the back face M is windowed, the latter being normally closed by a shutter-like prop 15. The prop I5 is provided with flexible pivot arms l5 formed with socketed trunnions ll, there being removably fitted in seats [8 therefor formed in the inner faces of the side edges I9 of the casing ID, so that the said prop can be swung to a position for propping the casing on a support in a forwardly direction, as best seen in Figure 9 of the drawings, and in this manner, the device serves as a stand for pencils on a desk or the like. The prop l5 when closed is fractionally'latched as at 20, best seen in Figure 3 of the drawings.
Formed interiorly of the casing it at its bottom portion are horizontally spaced pencil point pockets or seats 2|, which are tapered correspondingly to the points of pencils 22 to be received thereby.
In vertical alignment with these pockets or seats 2| and formed in the top edge of the casing H3 are pencil receiving holes or clearances 23, so that the pencils 22 can be removably inserted into the casing [0 to direct the points into the seats or pockets 2|, with the blunt or rubber carrying ends of the said pencils protruding outwardly of the casing for a limited degree, whereby they may be selectively acquired for service.
The casing can be made of any selected material and may be of any desired size, while the pencil grouping can be varied. This casing l0 can be worn in the pocket of a garment or brought to a standing position on a support, which is optional with a user thereof. The casing Ill also can be hung on a nail or the like, a hole 24 being provided for this purpose.
What is claimed is:
1. A device of the kind described, comprising a.
through openings in the opposite end of the casing, a prop carried by the casing at the rear side thereof and means swingingly connecting the prop for moving the prop into and out of 4 engagement with the window in the back of the casing.
3. A device of the kind described, comprising a casing having a solid front and a window in the back, a plurality of pencil point seats interiorly thereof near one end and engageable through openings in the opposite end of the casing, a prop carried by the casing at the rear side thereof, means swingingly connecting the prop for moving the prop into active and inactive relation with the casing and means for frictionally latching the prop in an inactive position and in fitting relation to the window in the rear of the casing.
