ABSTRACT:
A key holder is provided consisting of an open-ended housing, a tray slidably disposed within the housing and a resilient wire bail, slidably disposed on the housing and attached to the tray so as to move in unison with the tray as the tray is moved into and out of the housing. The bail is detached from the housing and tray and is threaded through the holes of a number of keys. The bail, with the keys mounted thereon, is then attached to the tray and housing by spreading the legs of the resilient bail and inserting dogs formed at the ends of the legs through slots in the sides of the housing and into sockets in the tray. As the tray is slipped into the housing, the bits of the keys are inserted into the housing as well. When the use of a key is desired, the keys, bail and tray are partially pulled from the housing. The key to be used is then rotated away from the housing and the remaining keys may then be reinserted. As an alternative embodiment the device may be constructed of two pieces, an open ended housing and a wire bail, without the need for a sliding tray.
