ABSTRACT:
A retractable holder for an article includes first and second housing members. The first housing member has a first wall and a generally perpendicular peripheral side wall. The second housing member has a second wall generally parallel to the first wall which is engageable with the first housing member to define a hollow inner compartment. A holder is rotatably enclosed within the housing. The holder has a peripheral side wall spaced inwardly from the peripheral side wall of the first housing member. The holder retains a spring to bias the holder in a rotational direction. An attachment member is coiled around the peripheral side wall of the holder and extends externally from the housing for attachment to an article. A locking member engages with the holder to retain the holder against rotational movement after the attachment member has been dispensed to a desired finite length. A clip can be attached to the exterior of the housing for storage of the article when not in use.
