  • Publication number: 20090134223
    Abstract: The invention provides a case for holding a single card, with an opening in the front. A card can be inserted into the front opening until flush with the rear wall. Flexible tabs located on the back or sides of the case are deformed by the insertion of the card and this elastic deformation provides the retention force for keeping the card within the case in all orientations and use situations. The case is designed for wallet-sized cards. A clip may be attached to the case for mounting on a car visor, map pocket, or other location either within a vehicle or anywhere else desired. The clip is removable so that another means of attachment, such as hook and loop fasteners, double sided tape, adhesives or any other method may be used to attach the case to any desired location. The case may contain electronics and sensors for reading the card information, via magnetic strip, RFID or other method.
