WALLET RETAINER Filed Nov. 5.. 1941 3a is;
mw P6 fc3/d ATTDRNIYI Patented Feb. 23, 1943 UNITED STATES PATENT @MUSE 1 Claim.
My invention relates to billfolds and the like, and has among its objects and advantages the provision of an improved protector which coacts with the pocket in such manner as to prevent removal of the billfold without attracting the attention of the owner.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a view of a pocket with a portion removed to illustrate the billfold retainer;
Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view of a portion of a billfold illustrating the retainer;
Figure 3 is a sectional view along the line 3-3 of Figure 2; Y
Figure 4 is a detail View of a portion of the retainer;
Figure 5 is a sectional View along the line 5-5 of Figure 2; and
Figure 6 is a perspective view of a slide element of the retainer.
In the embodiment selected for illustration, I make use of a conventional wallet IIJ inside which is mounted a metallic plate I2, which plate extends from one end of the wallet to its general line of bend I4. Figure 5 illustrates one edge of the plate I2 as having abutting engagement at I6 with the wallet walls I8 and 20 stitched along the line 22. A strip 24 is stitched at 26 to the wall I8 to enclose the opposite edge of the plate.
A spring 28 is mounted on the plate I2, which spring is provi-ded with a rectangular-shaped loop 3B retained by eyelets 32 welded or otherwise secured to the plate I2. Spring 28 is bent to provide two normally diverging arms 34 bent at 36 to provide ngers 38 passable through openings 40 in the edge margins of the wallet I0.
On the plate I2 is also secured a guide wire 42 having its ends attached to the plate by eyelets 44, which may be Welded to the plate. A slide 46 is provided with an opening 48 slidably receiving the rod 42, and the slide is provided with two openings 50 so shaped as to permit the arms 34 to be exed toward and away from each other, as from their full line Wallet retaining positions of Figure 2 to the dotted line wallet retaining positions. To the Wall I 8 is secured a metallic strip 52 having a slot 54 for freely receiving the shank 5B of a knob 58. Thus the pocket according to Figure 1.
Figure 1 illustrates a pocket 60 wherein the side walls 62 and 64 are stitched together along lines 66. The lower ends of the two lines of stitching B6 are spaced suiiiciently far to permit `the lower end of the wallet III to be passed therebetween.
In placing the wallet in the pocket, the slide 46 is first moved to its dotted line position of Figure 2 and the wallet placed in position in the The knob 58 is then lifted upwardly for shifting the slide 45 to its full line position. When so positioned the lingers 38 are projected from the wallet and eX- tend considerably beyond'the lower end of the line of stitching 66 so as to latch the wallet in the pocket. Thus the wallet is made secure against removal, as by mere lifting of the wallet from the pocket.
Without further elaboration, the foregoing Will so fully illustrate my invention, that others may, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt the same for use under various conditions of service.
I claim:
The combination of a wallet, a rst plate mounted inside said Wallet, said wallet having a wall extending across said rst plate and provided With a slot, a second plate mounted on said wall and having a slot aligning with said rstmentioned slot, a generally U-shaped spring having its bight secured to said first plate, normally diverging arms having bends therein providing fingers projecting through openings in the wallet, a guide wire mounted on said first plate, a slide member movable along said guide wire and having openings loosely receiving said arms to iiex the latter and to bring said ngers inside the contour of the wallet when shifted to a predetermined position, and means connected with said slide member extending through said slots for shifting the slide member from a position exteriorly of the wall.
