Definitions

  • the carrier of this invention is compact and is easily loaded by a user. It is readily carried by a cameraman without affecting his picture-taking techniques.
  • a principal objective of this invention is to permit a user to have a supply of film readily available in an orderly fashion to be inserted in the camera and by which the exposed film can be readily stored in the same container.
  • Another objective of this invention is to provide a carrying case which is rugged, easily manufactured, and can be produced at a cost within the reach of camera users.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the film carrier in its closed position
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the lower flap open
  • FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view along the line 3-3 of Fig. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is a vertical cross-section along the line 4-4 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of an inner liner.
  • the carrier is comprised of three basic elements; namely, an inner liner 11 (FIG. 4), a cover of flexible material 12, and a strap 13.
  • the material 12 covers all exterior surfaces of liner 11 and the two together make up certain elements of the invention.
  • the cover 12 is of a flexible material such as leather, vinyl or plastic and is secured to an inner liner 11 as shown in FIG. 5.
  • these certain elements are numbered in the regular fashion and the corresponding elements of the liner are given the same numerals with the addition of prime marks.
  • the carrier is comprised of a front wall 14, a rear wall 15 and a pair of side walls 16 and 18.
  • the case is elongated and has a top 20 and a bottom 22.
  • the liner 11 can be sheet metal, plastic or the like. As can be seen in FIG. 5, the liner has an open top 20' and is formed with an opening 26 between the bottom plate 22' and the lower edge 28 of front wall 14. Contiguous with the opening 26 is a finger notch 30 extending upwardly into the front panel 14' and a bottom finger notch 32 which is formed in the bottom plate 22'.
  • the cross-section of the case, as represented by the opening 20' is congruent and slightly larger than the periphery of one of the film cartridges C. As seen best in FIG. 4, the
  • the container has a sufficient length to contain twelve separate cartridges.
  • the opening 20' is closed by way of a flap 40 having a spring-biased member 42 engageable with a securing loop 44 on the front panel 14. This securement can be accomplished with one hand.
  • a flap 50 encloses the lower end of the case.
  • the flap 50 includes three primary sections; namely, a portion 52 which is secured to the bottom 22' by an adhesive or the like; a second portion 54 connected to the portion 52 along the pivot line or depression 56; and a front portion 58 terminating in a spring-biased clip section 60 which interengages with the loop 62.
  • Loop 62 is secured to the front 14 by way of a bracket 64.
  • a strap 13 circumscribes the case and is secured to the side walls 16 and 18 by bracket loops 72.
  • the strap is of the type which is sufficiently long so as to be conveniently draped over the shoulder of a wearer. It is important to note that bracket loops 72 are arranged midway of the depth of the side walls so that the bottom section 76 of the strap is disposed over the pivot depression 56. It is in this manner, that the strap 76 reinforces the flap 50 at its point of greatest stress and weakness.
  • eleven cartridges are removed from their outer packaging and slipped into the container in the manner seen in FIG. 4.
  • the top cartridge does not have its paper removed and acts as a marker" to indicate to the user that he has exhausted his supply of film when it reaches the stack bottom.
  • the exposed cartridge that is removed from the camera is placed through opening 20 on top of cartridge C.
  • a case for holding a plurality of generally flat, thin cartridges having a rectangular periphery and a depth comprising,
  • an elongated case having an open top and having a rectangular cross-section that is slightly larger and congruent to said periphery such that said case can receive a stack of said cartridges through said open top
  • a first section having a pivot line along said bottom, said pivot line extending perpendicular to each of said side walls and approximately midway between said front and said rear panels,
  • inter-engaging means on the outer end of said second section and said front panel for securing said bottom cover thereto, and a carrying strap circumscribing said case and traversing said bottom along said pivot line whereby said strap will give support to said pivot.
