p 1951 J. KLEIN COMBINATION PURsE AND BILLFOLD Filed March 24, 1948 w m m w M E E 1 T. L U N 7 w v E n! m w m A I E 1 m 2 U Patented Sept. 25, 1951 UNITED STATES PAT T OFFICE 1 Claim. 1
This invention relates to a combination purse and billfold.
An object of the present invention is to provide a combination purse and billfold in which the coin pocketbook has two sides, one of which is as deep as the Wallet is long.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claim in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a material part of this disclosure Fig. 1 is a side view of a wallet constructed in accordance with this invention, looking at it from the pocketbook side thereof.
Fig. 2 is a View looking at the other side of the wallet.
Fig. 3 is a view of the wallet opened up, viewed from the bill fold side thereof.
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 with the pocketbook open.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged section on the line 55 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 6 is a view of a wallet constructed in accordance with a modification of this invention in which the pocketbook has two compartments, which are both shown open.
Fig. 7 is a longitudinal section through the wallet of Fig. 6.
The wallet l0, according to the present invention consists of a pocketbook II for coins, one side of the pocketbook forming a part of a bill fold I2 for paper money.
The pocketbook l I has the usual hinged frame l3 provided with a latch l4. The hinged frame consists of two members each of which is channel shaped, the channel having secured therein the various layers of material from which the wallet is constructed. The layers are best shown in Fig. 5. Viewing the wallet in its unfolded position, as shown in Fig. 3, it has a leatherette side [5 which at its top is caught in its correlated channel. At the bottom it overlaps, by being turned over the other layers, and this is true also at the sides, as can be seen from Fig. 3. The inside walls of the pocketbook are of sheets of leather l6 sewed together and caught in the channels. The bill fold consists of a narrow outer layer of leatherette l1 lined with rayon [8, these forming one fold for paper money. Inwardly thereof is a rayon layer l9 having a leatherette margin 20, this forming the inner wall of the fold and one wall of the next fold (Cl. ISO-35) inwardly thereof. The inner wall of this second fold is formed by another rayon sheet 2| having a leatherette margin 22. The outer fold is narrower than the inner fold, stepping the margins to facilitate the removal of bills. The leatherette margins provide a stiff edge While the rayon layers keep the overall thickness of the Wallet to a minimum and permit the bending into the position shown in Fig. 1.
The wall I 6 adjacent the wall formed by sheet 2| and margin 22 is united thereto around an elongated slot closed by a slide fastener 23. The slide fastener is at right angles to the bill folds. The slot opens into the inner fold of the bill fold. The layer ll of leatherette has secured therein adjacent its opposite ends male and female snap fastener parts 24. When the parts 24 coact, the wallet is folded, that is, the bill folds are folded against the pocketbook. The pocketbook can be opened without opening the bill fold, by opening the latch 14. This exposes the slide fastener 23 which can be opened to provide access to the inner fold. Paper money can then be pulled out of the inner fold through the pocketbook without opening the bill fold. This feature permits the removal of paper money and coins by opening the pocketbook only, and prevents the inadvertent loss of paper money by removal of money through the long side of the bill fold.
A wallet constructed in accordance with a modification of this invention is shown in Figs. 6 and 7. This wallet is identical, in part, to the aforesaid wallet. It distinguishes therefrom first, in that the second bill fold is closed by a slide fastener 25, and second in that the pocketbook has an additional compartment 26. The walls and parts corresponding to like walls and parts of the embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. 1-5 are indicated by like reference with the suffix a, and no further description thereof is deemed necessary. Suflice it to say that the compartment 28 is formed by employing a frame l3 having three hinged members instead of two, and inserting between the layer l5 and adjacent layer 16 of Figs. l-5, the two layers I6 of Fig. '7. Also a stiffener [6 is placed between the inner layer It and the adjacent layer 16*. The outstanding difierence is that the layers Ni extend far beyond the layers I 6 to the end of the wallet, providing a very deep pocket for the pocketbook.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and. the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is:
A combination purse and billfold comprising a billfold and a two compartment pocketbook adjacent one side of said billfold and having a three elementhinged frame, one element of said frame being secured to a wall of said pocketbook and an adjacent wall of said bill fold, said bill fold having two chambers for receiving paper money, the inner of said chambers opening into the adjacent compartment of the pocketbook through a slot common to the walls thereof, said adjacent compartment being of a depth less than half the length of said bill fold, a slide fastener for closing said slot and being operable from inside of the said adjacent compartment of said pocketbook, the other compartment of saidpocketbook beingas'deep as said bill fold is long, and male and female snap fastener parts for holding said bill fold folded against said pocketbook.
