This application is a continuation-in-part of the Ser. No. 09/215,570 application. The Ser. No. 09/215,570 application has received a Notice of Allowance mailed Oct. 10, 2000 and is currently pending as of the filing of this application. The Ser. No. 09/215,570 application is hereby incorporated by reference into this application. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    [2] 2. 1. Field of the Invention
    [3] 3. The present invention relates generally to document holder devices and more specifically it relates to a document retaining system for retaining documents in a protected manner while allowing easy and convenient access to the documents.
    [4] 4. Individuals in various professions and industries commonly utilize document holder devices to retain various types of documents. Unfortunately many of these document holder devices are not comprised of a suitable compact structure during usage by an individual making them difficult to manually support and utilize. Hence, there is a need for a document retaining system that performs all of the functions of conventional document retaining systems in a convenient manner.
    [5] 5. 2. Description of the Prior Art
    [6] 6. Document holder devices have been in use for years. Conventional document holder devices typically include but are not limited to form holders, work boxes, clipboards, clipboards with writing plates, sheet holders, drivers log book covers, portfolios, ring binders, and citation holders. Conventional document holder devices typically are constructed to retain and protect documents such as papers, forms, tablets and other items. Conventional document holder devices having two or more pivotally attached door members (or flaps) are common in the industry that expand outwardly in a wing-manner when the user desires to access the documents contained within. Conventional document holder devices often times have a storage area along with a writing plate.
    [7] 7. The main problem with conventional document holder devices is that they are cumbersome to utilize. Another problem is that conventional document holder devices are difficult to physically support and write upon for many individuals because of the pivotally attached doors. Conventional clipboards are easy to utilize, however they do not protect documents from being damaged or visually seen by unauthorized individuals.
    [8] 8. While these devices may be suitable for the particular purpose to which they address, they are not as suitable for retaining documents in a protected manner while allowing easy and convenient access to the documents. Conventional document retaining devices are bulky and awkward to utilize. In addition, conventional document retaining devices generally have a lid or cover that is pivoted outwardly that interferes with usage.
    [9] 9. In these respects, the document retaining system according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of retaining documents in a protected manner while allowing easy and convenient access to the documents. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
    [10] 10. In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of document retaining devices now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new document retaining system construction wherein the same can be utilized for retaining documents in a protected manner while allowing easy and convenient access to the documents.
    [11] 11. The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new document retaining system that has many of the advantages of the document retaining devices mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new document retaining system which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art document retaining devices, either alone or in any combination thereof.
    [12] 12. To attain this, the present invention generally comprises a base having a pair of opposing slots, and a cover having a pair of opposing pins that are slidably positioned within the slots. The cover is formed to removably fit within the interior cavity of the base and for removably covering the interior cavity of the base. Various documents may be stored and utilized within the base and the cover along with various auxiliary devices such as clamps and partition members.
    [13] 13.

    [35] 35. Turning now descriptively to the drawings, in which similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several view, FIGS. 1 through 7 illustrate a document retaining system 10, which comprises a base 20 having a pair of opposing slots 28 a-b, and a cover 30 having a pair of opposing pins 40 a-b that are slidably positioned within the slots 28 a-b. The cover 30 is formed to removably fit within the interior cavity of the base 20 and for removably covering the interior cavity of the base 20. Various documents may be stored and utilized within the base 20 and the cover 30 along with various auxiliary devices such as clamps 70, 72 and partition members 74. The base 20 and cover 30 may be constructed of various materials such as but not limited to aluminum, steel or plastic.
    [36] 36. The base 20 and cover 30 have three basic positions with respect to one another. Utilizing these three positions of the document retaining system 10, a user is able to conveniently store and access documents within a single compact structure that does not interfere with their usage.
    [37] 37. The first position of the document retaining system 10 is comprised of the “closed” position as illustrated in FIGS. 1. The closed position provides protection of documents contained within the document retaining system 10.
    [38] 38. The second position of the document retaining system 10 is comprised of the “open” position as illustrated in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7 of the drawings. The open position is simply the cover 30 rotated 180 degrees with respect to the base 20.
    [39] 39. The third position of the document retaining system 10 is comprised of the “compact open” position as illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6 of the drawings. The compact open position is wherein the cover 30 is slid into the base 20 (or the base 20 slid about the cover 30) from the open position as best illustrated in FIG. 5 of the drawings. Only the documents attached within the interior portion of the cover 30 are accessible when the document retaining system 10 is positioned within the compact open position.
    [40] 40. The base 20 is preferably comprised of a rectangular or square shape as best shown in FIG. 7 of the drawings. As best shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 of the drawings, the base 20 is comprised of a floor 22, three first side walls 24 forming a U-shape about the perimeter of the floor 22, and an end wall 26. The end wall 26 is lower in height than the first side walls 24 as best illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 6 of the drawings.
    [41] 41. The first side walls 24 are preferably constructed of an approximately equal height with respect to the floor 22. The first side walls 24 and the end wall 26 preferably extend orthogonally from the outer portion of the floor 22. It can be appreciated that the base 20 may be comprised of various other structures and designs to accomplish the desired functionality of the present invention.
    [42] 42. As best shown in FIG. 3 of the drawings, a pair of opposing slots 28 a-b extend through two of the opposing first side walls 24. The slots 28 a-b extend along a significant portion of the opposing first side walls 24 as best shown in FIG. 3 of the drawings. The slots 28 a-b are preferably parallel to the floor 22, however angled slots 28 a-b may also be utilized to accomplish various functions.
    [43] 43. As shown in FIGS. 1 through 7 of the drawings, a cover 30 is provided that is both pivotally and slidably positioned within the base 20. The cover 30 is formed to fit substantially within the cavity of the base 20 defined by the first side walls 24 when in the compact open position as best illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6.
    [44] 44. The cover 30 is comprised of an upper plate 32, and three second side walls 34 extending from the outer portion of the upper plate 32 similar to the first side walls 24. Two of the second side walls 34 are in opposition to one another with the remaining second side wall 34 extending between the opposing second side walls 34 forming a U-shaped structure similar to the first side walls 24. The two opposing second side walls 34 are spaced together closer than the opposing first side walls 24 to allow the second side walls 34 to be positioned between the opposing first side walls 24 as shown in FIGS. 2 through 7 of the drawings. The second side walls 34 are preferably constructed of an approximately equal height with respect to the upper plate 32. It can be appreciated that the cover 30 may be comprised of various other structures and designs to accomplish the desired functionality of the present invention. A portion of the upper plate 32 preferably extends past the first side walls 24 forming a lip 36 that is easy to engage by a user.
    [45] 45. As shown in FIGS. 3 through 7 of the drawings, a pair of pins 40 a-b are attached to the two opposing second side walls 34 of the cover 30. The pins 40 a-b are slidably and pivotally received within the corresponding pair of slots 28 a-b as further shown in FIGS. 3 through 7 of the drawings. The pins 40 a-b are preferably comprised of a flanged end structure to prevent accidental removal from the slots 28 a-b. The pins 40 a-b are preferably located adjacent the second side wall 34 positioned between the opposing second side walls 34 opposite of the lip 36 of the upper plate 32 as best illustrated in FIG. 6 of the drawings.
    [46] 46. Various auxiliary devices may be secured within the base 20 and the cover 30 for securing and supporting various documents. For example, a gripping clamp 70 may be secured to the upper plate 32 of the cover 30 for removably securing documents and other items. In addition, a partition member 74 may be pivotally attached to one of the second side walls 34 by a hinge 76 or other means for separating documents and providing a writing surface for documents during usage as further shown in FIGS. 3 through 7 of the drawings. A plate clamp 72 may be secured to the floor 22 of the base 20 for retaining documents and other items as shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 4 and 7 of the drawings. It can be appreciated that various other auxiliary devices may be utilized within the base 20 and cover 30 with various combinations capable of being utilized.
    [47] 47. In an alternative embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 through 10 of the drawings, a pair of locking grooves 29 a-b extend orthogonally downwardly from the end of each of the slots 28 a-b. The hinge pins 40 a-b removably catch upon the locking grooves 29 a-b when the cover 30 is in the compact open position for preventing movement of the cover 30 while the user is manipulating documents within the document retaining system 10 as is best illustrated in FIG. 10 of the drawings.
    [48] 48. In use, the user positions the document retaining system 10 within the open position thereby exposing both the base 20 and the cover 30. The user then inserts the desired documents and other materials within the base 20 and cover 30 as desired utilizing various auxiliary devices to retain the same. The user then rotates the cover 30 180 degrees with respect to the base 20 so that the cover 30 substantially encloses the cavity of the base 20 thereby forming the “closed” position. The documents and other materials within the document retaining system 10 are thereafter properly protected from various damaging events. The closed position of the document retaining system 10 both stores and protects valuable documents contained within while simultaneously providing a compact structure to transport and store. When the user desires to access the documents contained within the document retaining system 10, the user simply engages the lip 36 of the cover 30 and rotates the cover 30 away from the base 20 as shown in FIG. 2 of the drawings. The user continues rotating the cover 30 until approximately 180 degrees wherein the outer surface of the upper plate 32 engages the end wall 26 thereby supporting the cover 30 in a substantially parallel position with respect to the base 20 forming the “open” position as best illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4 of the drawings. The user may then access documents within either the base 20 or the cover 30 as best shown in FIG. 7 of the drawings. If the user desires to utilize the documents contained only within the cover 30, the user then may slide the cover 30 into the base 20 as best illustrated in FIG. 5 of the drawings. When the U-shaped structure of the second side walls 34 engages the corresponding U-shaped structure of the first side walls 24 the document retaining system 10 is positioned within the compact storage position as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 of the drawings. The user is then free to access the documents within the cover 30 and utilize the various auxiliary devices contained within. When the user is finished accessing the documents within the document retaining system, the user simply reverses the above procedure until the cover 30 is substantially enclosing the cavity of the base 20 thereby forming the closed position.
    [49] 49. As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided.
    [50] 50. With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
    [51] 51. Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
