Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method for storing, handling, and storing collectible items such as postage stamps, coins, postcards, and similar articles having small dimensions and approximately a flat 1.6 mm shape. Concerning storage devices of the type currently used by collectors for display purposes.

A containment device called a "pocket" or [envelope] is made by securing a transparent sheet at two or more edges to a rigid support member, preferably of thin cardboard, such as a sheet of a postage stamp collection album. Manufactured now. Postage stamp storage pockets obtained by assembling two transparent sheets are also commonly used.

Owing to the lack of a gap between the transparent sheet and the support member, i.e. the opposing surfaces of the two transparent strips, the above-described device is satisfactory for storing postage stamps with raised portions and coins. is unusable. In the case of postage stamps having relief portions, envelopes according to the prior art do not prevent undesirable distortion of the relief portion due to unintentional pressure applied to the surface of the stamp.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION 1. To provide an improved storage device in which collectible items such as coins and postage stamps having relief portions can be stored easily and satisfactorily without fear of damage. ,.

According to the present invention, a storage device for collecting small items such as postage stamps, coins, etc. has a transparent front cover and a square cover in the shape of a rectangle, and two mutually opposite sides of the front cover and the rear cover. Along these lines.

an inner holder member and an outer holder member each having two linear spacer elements interposed between the covers of the first cavity having two open ends and in which said item is located; a spacer element of the outer holder member that is defined between the front cover and the rear cover of the inner holder member, and a second cavity facing the frontage end of the first cavity; The outer holder member is characterized in that it is confined between the front cover and the rear cover of the outer holder member so as to slidably accommodate the member. . . . Due to the presence of the linear spacer element, the gap between the front cover and the rear cover of the inner holder member is set, thereby having a coin and a relief part. A space is provided in which items having a certain degree of thickness, such as postage stamps, can be easily and satisfactorily stored.

, when the inner holder member is fully inserted into the outer holder member, the spacer element provided on the outer holder member extends over the frontage end of the cavity in the inner holder member;・This prevents undesirable slippage of items from containment/containment equipment. Spacer elements provided on both holders define an outer frame surrounding the first cavity and protect the item located in the first cavity from damage.

Preferably, both holder members are provided with a transparent rear cover. The storage device of the invention thus exhibits a scale display volax which allows direct inspection on both sides of the items stored therein.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the inner holder member has a linear spacer element coupled to the front cover and the rear cover so as to define their mutual inner edges, while The other linear spacer element is connected to only one cover, preferably to the front cover. □ This allows lifting of the front cover of the inner holder member, thereby allowing the storage device to □ Notches are provided on the front and rear covers of the outer holder member to facilitate grasping of the inner holder member during withdrawal from the outer and side boulder members. along the free side.

The present invention will be described below with respect to embodiments thereof and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the drawings, the storage device 1 is shown as comprising an inner holder member 2 and an outer holder member 3 .゛6- The inner holder member 2 has a front cover 4 made of a flexible transparent material such as resin seal 1, a rear cover 5, and a linear first space. element 6 (preferably,
The elements 6 are welded or glued to both covers 4.5 along their mutual inner edges (of resin material or cardboard).

A linear second spacer element 7 is welded or glued to the front cover 4 along the side of the front cover 4 opposite the inner edge defined by the spacing element 6 . In the arrangement described above, the void 8 is defined between the front cover 4, the rear cover 5 and the spacer element 6.
A collection item such as that shown in Figure) can be inserted into the space.

The cavity 8 has two open ends 9.10 corresponding to the sides of the front cover 4 and the rear cover 5 and extending at right angles to the spacing element 6.7.

The outer holder member 3 has a front cover 11 and a rear cover 12 of a flexible transparent material, such as a resinous material.

Two further linear spacer elements 13.14 are interposed between the rectangular shaped front cover 11 and rear cover 12 along their sides.

Each spacer element 13, 14 is welded or glued to both the front cover 11 and the rear cover 12, ensuring the bonding of these covers along both sides. The distance between the spacer elements 13.14 essentially corresponds to the distance between the two open ends 9.10 of the cavity 8.

The inner holder member 2 is therefore slidably insertable into the cavity 15 defined between the front cover 11, the rear cover 12 and the spacer element 13.14. When the inner holder member 2 is inserted into the outer holder part 3, the spacer element 1
3.14 cooperate with the open ends 9, 10 of the cavity 8 so as to restrain the items contained in the cavity 8. Unwanted slippage of these items from the storage device is thus prevented.

The notch 16 is provided on the side (referred to as the "free side") of the front cover 11 and the rear cover 12 extending at right angles to the spacer elements 13.14. The notch 16 facilitates grasping the inner holder part 2 during withdrawal from the outer holder part 3. Reference numeral 17 in FIGS. 3 and 4 indicates installation of the storage device 1 on a binding mount, such as sheet S of a collection album, as schematically shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. 11 shows adhesive strips applied to one end edge of the outer holder member 3 to make this possible. The strip 17 makes it possible to lift the storage device 1 from the sheet even after adhesive bonding to the sheet. Lifting of the storage device greatly facilitates the insertion and removal of collection items, as shown in solid lines in FIGS. Lifting of the device 1 also allows inspection of both sides of the items contained in the bin 1 without having to remove them from the binding.

Of course, the principles of the invention remain the same, and the details and embodiments may vary widely from what has been shown and described by way of example only, without departing from the scope of the invention. .
