Definitions

• the invention relates to a pocket for a yardstick.
• the yardstick and the pencil are indispensable aids, which must always be at hand for an expedient and quick workflow. They are therefore usually carried in pockets of work clothing, which are preferably attached in the area of the thigh and have approximately the shape of a folded yardstick.
• a disadvantage is that the yardstick has no firm hold in the pocket and easily falls out when sitting down or when working in inaccessible places, for example when crouching or lying down.
• the accommodation of the pencil in addition to the disadvantages already mentioned causes further inconveniences. With the pockets for the pencil on the work clothes, there is a risk that short pencils slip too deep into the pocket and can only be removed from them with great effort.
• the invention is based on the object of designing a pocket for a yardstick so that the yardstick and inserted pencils are always within reach, sit securely, do not fall out and do not interfere with carrying.
• the pocket is essentially a cuboid with an open upper end face and the inside dimensions of the pocket correspond to the dimensions of a folded measuring stick, the length of the pocket being somewhat shorter than the length of the folded measuring stick ,
• the pocket has a downward-pointing spring clip on one long side, the spring force of which is directed into the pocket, and on the longitudinal side of the pocket at least one pencil holder is fastened, which consists of one or more lead spaced apart in the longitudinal direction there are loops surrounding the pin, the loops lying close to the pencil or a clamping device being provided into which the pencil is inserted.
• the yardstick and the pencils are thus arranged together and always at hand. In the case of the yardstick, falling out is prevented by the spring clamp which presses against the inserted yardstick.
• the spring clip points downwards so that the yardstick does not get caught when inserted from above.
• the pencils are either held alone by tight-fitting loops, pressed against the inside of the loops by a clamp, or in a pair of pliers, for example Clamping device made of elastic material fixed, that is, frictionally fixed by a force acting in the radial direction.
• the yardstick pocket preferably has a hanging tab, which means that it attaches itself to professional clothing, e.g. can be attached to the waistband, belt or trouser pockets.
• the craftsman has the choice to hang the bag where it seems the cheapest.
• a resiliently elastic material of the tab ensures a secure fit of the bag without the need for complicated attachment.
• the flap is expediently located in the relaxed state directly on the outside of the pocket, so that the pocket is fixed in such a way that part of a piece of clothing is guided into the gap between the flap and the outside of the pocket.
• the resilient tab provides a firm hold by pressing.
• the hanging tab is expediently located on one of the two wider long sides. This has the advantage that the bag fits snugly against the body and does not protrude as far as a bag attached to the body with the narrower longitudinal side.
• the pencil holders are located on the narrower long sides. This Attaching the pencils on the side also offers better protection against knocks and bumps. Fastening to the side of the flap is also not appropriate, since in this case the pencil presses uncomfortably against the body and can only be removed with difficulty by removing the entire pocket.
• Carpenters usually need a hard and a soft pencil.
• a preferred embodiment of the invention therefore has two pencil holders, each of which is located on one of the narrow long sides. Holders of different diameters are particularly suitable, so that in addition to an ordinary pencil, e.g. a carpenter's pencil or a pen for writing on special surfaces, such as glass, can be attached, the cross-section of which is generally larger in comparison.
• these In order to facilitate the insertion of the ruler into the pocket or the pencils into the pencil holders, these have funnel-shaped extensions at their upper end.
• the spring clip for the yardstick is advantageously located on the same side of the pocket as the hanging tab, as a result of which the spring clip is located on the side lying against the body. This eliminates the risk of the spring clip getting caught on other objects. In addition, the bag looks more appealing because the usual other surfaces, apart from the pencil holders, remain smooth.
• the hanging tab In order to shift the center of gravity of the bag as far as possible under the hanging tab, the hanging tab is located above the spring clip. The suspension is therefore more stable and the risk of tipping over and unintentional removal from clothing is reduced.
• the pocket additionally has a clamp for a pencil sharpener.
• a clamp for a pencil sharpener This means that the pencils carried can be sharpened immediately on the spot if necessary.
• the type of clamp attachment is arbitrary in the context of the inventive idea. For example, it can be a clamp with two legs pressing against each other.
• clamp attachment is expediently located in the region of the lower end face of the pocket, since the narrower long sides preferably have pencil holders and the outer broader long side preferably remains free.
• clamp can be the lower stop for the
• Form yardstick In this case, the pocket on the underside is open so that dirt particles do not accumulate inside.
• the pocket is made of leather, which on the one hand has sufficient strength and on the other hand is sufficiently flexible for the pencil holders.
• leather is robust and also visually appealing.
• it is preferably made of elastic plastic. This allows the bag with tabs, brackets and springs to be produced in one piece and very cheaply by injection molding.
• the drawing shows a pocket (1) according to the invention in a perspective view, which is rectangular and into which a yardstick (2) is inserted from above, which protrudes somewhat from the pocket (1) at the top. Otherwise, the inside dimensions of the pocket (1) correspond to the dimensions of the folded-up measuring rod (2).
• a spring clamp (5) is provided below the suspension bracket (4), which presses with its spring force against the meter rod (2) and thereby holds it in place.
• a pencil holder (7) is attached to each of the narrow long sides (6) and consists of two vertically superimposed loops (8) holding a pencil (9). Further - 7 -
