[Means for solving the problem]

[0010] This device makes the body of the device large enough to be easily held in one hand, making it easy to insert and remove keys and take out cards with one hand.

[0011] This invention separates the storage space for keys from the storage space for cards, bills, coins, etc., so that cards, bills, coins, etc. do not fall out when the key is inserted or removed, and so that the key does not fall out when the card, bill, coin, etc. is inserted or removed.

[0012] In order to make it easier to take keys in and out with one hand, this device connects the keys to the main body with a band and ring, covers the keys with a cover, attaches a fastener to the cover and the main body, and makes the fastener strong enough to open and close with the fingers of one hand, and shapes the cover so that the keys can be stored securely with a single fastener.

[0013] This device stores keys by passing them through multiple key holes with one ring so that when the number of key fasteners becomes greater than the number of keys to be stored, the fasteners of unused keys do not protrude from the main body and get in the way.

[0014] This invention sets the size of the ring so that it can store an increasing number of keys for general doors, etc.

[0015] In this device, the cover covering the keys is opened until all the stored keys can be seen so that the stored keys can be viewed and selected.

[0016] In this invention, a pocket for inserting a card may be provided on the opposite side of the main body where the key is stored so that the card can be removed with one hand.

[0017] In this invention, in order to store keys separately or to store multiple keys, an additional key storage space may be provided on the opposite side of the main body where the keys are stored.

[0018] In this invention, in order to make it possible to easily attach the key card case to a bag, clothing, etc., a loop-shaped string can be attached to the main body, which can be attached to a bag, clothing, etc. using a string or carabiner.

[0019] In this invention, the width of the main body can be expanded or the main body can be expanded to store more cards, bills, coins, etc.

[0020] In this invention, in order to make it possible to quickly find specific cards, bills, coins, etc., dividers or openable bags can be attached to the storage space of the main body, or multiple main bodies can be added to separate the storage spaces.

[0021] In this invention, the location of the key storage compartment may be changed so that both right-handed and left-handed people can easily insert and remove the key with one hand. [Effects of the Invention]

[0022] With the spread of smartphones and other devices, the number of opportunities to use keys, cards, bills, and coins is decreasing, but there are still situations in daily life where they are needed, and not being able to easily take them out when you need them can be stressful. This device is small enough to be easily held in one hand, fits into small spaces, and can be attached to clothing or a bag, making it easy to carry and take out, reducing the stress of having to search for keys, cards, bills, coins, etc. when needed.

[0023] This device allows you to insert and remove the key and open and close the door even when you only have one hand available, so even when you can't put your luggage down because the ground is wet due to rain, when you are holding a sleeping child, or when you are caring for a parent and only have one hand available, you can open and close the door with just one hand, which has the effect of reducing stress.

[0024] This device allows the key to be easily inserted and removed with one hand, reducing the amount of daily keystrokes and reducing hassle.

[0025] This device is small enough to be easily held in one hand and can be attached to clothing or a bag with a string, making it easy to carry, making it easy to keep on your person at all times and useful in emergencies.

[0026] In this device, the storage space for keys is separate from the storage space for cards, bills, coins, etc., so cards, bills, coins, etc. will not fall out when taking out or putting in the keys, and the keys will not fall out when taking out or putting in the cards, bills, coins, etc., which reduces the risk of losing them.

[0027] This device allows the case to be easily attached to a bag, clothing, or other item using a loop such as a string or carabiner, making it easy to find and reducing the risk of loss.

[0028] This invention increases the storage space of the main body, which has the effect of resolving the complaints of people who have been dissatisfied with the storage capacity of previous key card cases.

[0029] This invention allows you to sort and store cards, bills, and coins by attaching dividers and opening / closing bags inside the main body or by adding additional main bodies, which has the effect of making it possible to quickly find the item you are looking for.

[0030] This device allows the key storage position to be changed for right-handed and left-handed users, eliminating the inconvenience of using one's dominant hand. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0032] The shape of the main body 1 of the present invention is 90 to 140 mm in length, 60 to 100 mm in width, and 5 to 20 mm in depth so that a standard credit card can be easily inserted and removed and held in one hand.

[0033] A zipper 8 is attached to the long side of the main body 1 of the present invention as an opening and closing function for inserting and removing cards, bills, coins, etc. Although a zipper is preferable for this opening and closing function, hooks, buttons, Velcro (registered trademark), magnets, etc. may also be used.

[0034] As shown in Figure 1, a ring-shaped band 5 is attached to the center of the short side of the main body 1 of this device, an openable ring 6 is attached to the band 5, the ring 6 is passed through holes in multiple keys 7, and the keys 7 are covered with the cover 2 from above. By closing the fastener 3 of the cover 2 and the fastener 4 of the main body 1, a space for storing keys 7 is created that is separate from the storage space for cards, bills, coins, etc.

[0035] The preferred shape of the cover 2 of this device is an isosceles triangle with the corners between the sides of equal length cut off and a portion of a circle added to the cut-off part, as shown in Figure 1. However, depending on the materials of the main body 1 and cover 2, and the size and number of keys 7 to be stored, the shape may vary as long as the side with the fastener is shorter than the side attached to the main body 1. In addition, the cover 2 is attached so that it can be opened by more than 180 degrees from the main body 1 with one hand so that the stored keys can be viewed and selected.

[0036] The materials for the body 1, cover 2, and band 5 of this invention are preferably synthetic fibers such as nylon and polyester, which are strong, durable, and lightweight, but as long as there are no problems with strength, durability, or weight, natural fibers such as cotton, recycled fibers such as rayon, synthetic resin films such as vinyl, natural leather, synthetic leather, etc. may also be used. However, the cover 2 is preferably made of a stretchy material so that the keys 7 are tightly attached to the cover 2 and do not come out of the cover 2. Furthermore, the surface of the main body 1 opposite to the surface storing the keys 7 may be made of a mesh or transparent material so that the stored contents can be seen from the outside.

[0037] The ring 6 of the present invention is preferably a circular metal ring with an opening and closing function, and has a diameter of 20 to 40 mm so that it can easily store up to five keys 7 for a typical door or the like. The width of the band 5 for fastening the ring 6 is set to 5 to 25 mm so that the ring 6 is stable. However, the ring 6 may be oval, figure eight, or other shapes as long as it allows the key to be inserted and removed, and may be made of synthetic fibers such as nylon or polyester, natural fibers such as cotton, recycled fibers such as rayon, synthetic resin films such as vinyl, natural leather, synthetic leather, or the like. Furthermore, the band 5 may be in the form of a string or the like, instead of a band, as long as it has a ring shape to which a ring can be attached.

[0038] The fasteners 3 and 4 of the present invention are preferably hooks strong enough to be opened and closed with the fingers of one hand, but buttons, magnets, Velcro (registered trademark), etc. that can perform the same function may also be used.

[0039] In this invention, as shown in Figures 5 to 8, a pocket 9 may be attached to the side of the main body opposite to the side storing the key 7 so that the card 10 can be removed by rubbing it up with the fingers of one hand. The pocket 9 may be shaped so that the card 10 can be dispensed from the short side of the main body 1 or from the long side. In either case, it is preferable that the card 10 can be dispensed from 5 to 25 mm.

[0040] In this invention, in order to store a large number of keys 7 in a divided manner, additional spaces for storing keys 7 may be provided on both sides of the main body 1 as shown in FIG.

[0041] In this device, the case can be attached to a bag, clothing, etc. by passing a loop-shaped object such as a string or carabiner through it, so a loop-shaped string 11 can be attached to the top of the belt 5 of the main body 1, as shown in Figures 10 and 11. The string 11 may be in the form of a band or the like, as long as it has a loop shape that allows a loop-shaped object such as a string or a carabiner to be passed through. The material of the string 11 is preferably a synthetic fiber such as nylon or polyester, which is strong, durable, and lightweight, but as long as there are no problems with strength, durability, or weight, natural fibers such as cotton, recycled fibers such as rayon, synthetic resin films such as vinyl, natural leather, synthetic leather, etc. may also be used.

[0042] In this invention, the width of the main body 1 may be widened as shown in FIG. 12 in order to increase the storage space for cards, bills, coins, etc.

[0043] In this invention, in order to make it easier to quickly find the desired item among the cards, bills, coins, etc. stored in the main body 1, dividers 12 and 13 may be attached inside the main body 1 as shown in Figures 13 and 14. Also, to prevent coins and other items from falling out, the dividers 12 and 13 may be bag-like with a zipper or the like.

[0044] In this invention, in order to make it easier to quickly find the desired item from among the stored cards, bills, coins, etc., multiple items of the same shape as the main body 1 may be attached, as shown in Figure 15.

[0045] In the present invention, the opening and closing function of the zipper 8 of the main body 1 may be attached to the inside of the side of the main body 1, instead of the long side of the main body 1, as shown in Figs.

[0046] In this invention, for left-handed users, the cover 2, fasteners 3 and 4, band 5, ring 6, and zipper 8 shown in Figures 1 to 4 for right-handed users may be attached to the opposite side of the main body 1, as shown in Figures 18 to 21, so that the key 7 can be easily inserted and removed using only the left hand.
