FLEXIBLE CASE FOR CARRYING SMALL OBJECTS

摘要

A flexible purse or case for holding small objects within a user's pocket or handbag includes a flexible skin which forms a shaped body having enclosed space and a slot extending between the ends of the body for accessing the interior of the purse. A semi-rigid frame is engaged to the body and includes a downwardly curved bar extending between the ends of the body. Opposed rigid end caps cover the body ends and are engaged to opposed ends of the frame. Squeezing the first and second opposed ends together by squeezing the end caps flexes the frame and urges the slot open to allow access to the interior of the body. The skin and end caps form a visually unitary structure with a continuously curving exterior surface which may be in the shape of an ellipsoid.
