SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The present invention relates to structure of a name cards box and it mainly comprises a top cover, in which the top cover extends downwardly a circumference edge from its four sides, a slit opening is disposed at one side, the slit opening is narrower than the circumference edge from which name cards are taken out. An indented opening is just at the corner right next to the slit opening. A trough with stopping edge on its both ends is disposed next to the indented opening; A bottom box with a convex edge and a circumference frame are on its sides. The circumference edge of the top cover just matches with the circumference frame of the bottom box. A slit is disposed just in correspondence to the slit opening of the top cover. There is no circumference frame in correspondence to the trough. A hole is disposed on the bottom box at a preset place, both ends by the hole on the bottom of the bottom box are a little lower than the rest area of the bottom of the bottom box; A sliding piece is placed inside the hole and on top of the lower areas by both ends of the hole. The sliding piece comprises a lower main board with three hooks at one end. Each hook has a hooking end, one of the three hooks is a little bent upwards. A flat board is disposed at the opposite end of the main board. A block is found on one side of the flat board with a rod extended from it, a stopping piece is disposed at the end of the rod. The stopping piece can go in and out of the indented opening of the top cover, the block moves within the trough and is limited by the stopping edges of the top cover.
Accordingly, the sliding piece is slid within the hole of the bottom box by fingers. The stopping piece doesn't block the intended opening and name cards are hooked out by the hooks through between the slit opening of the top cover and the slit of the bottom box. Thus accomplished is the purpose of taking out and pushing back name cards from the name cards box conveniently. The main objective of the present invention of a name cards box structure is to provide a means of pushing out name cards from the name cards box by a sliding piece without having to open the top cover of the name cards box. A wanted number of name cards can also be more accurately taken out.
The present invention will become more fully understood by reference to the following detailed description thereof when read in conjunction with the attached drawings.
