ABSTRACT:
An article retaining apparatus having structure that facilitates push-type securement or manipulated latch-type securement of an article, such as keys, key rings and the like, and which also facilitates tug release, or manipulated latch release of a retained article. The apparatus engages an article at the apparatus's receiving-end, which includes a lower, beveled entry portion, that coacts with a beveled hook-end portion of a pivotally attached latch. Upon the latch being urged at the receiving-end by an article to be retained, a moment produce pivotal motion of the spring-loaded latching member towards a casing end portion to effect the push-type securement of the article. Similarly, during a tug release of the retained article, an inner sloped surface on the latch's hook-end portion coacts with an edge of an elongated C-shaped article retaining region to produce pivotal motion of the spring-loaded latching member towards the casing end portion to effect the tug release of the article. The spring-loaded latch can also be manipulated to produce the same moment on the spring-loaded latch to either engage or release an article.
