Abstract
A holder for solid articles in the form of a body having sidewalls, an integral bottom and an open top. The body is formed of a shock absorbing material. A plurality of spaced, outwardly extending ribs are formed on certain of the sidewalls and bottom of the body resiliently protect articles housed in the body to from damage. The sidewalls are formed with an inwardly extending upper lip portion which overlays a portion of the article within the body to secure the article within the body. A pair of opposed depending apertures contiguous with the open top are in certain of the sidewalls of the body.
Claims6
A rosin bar holder comprising:
- a body having sidewalls, end walls, a bottom and an open top defining an internal cavity for removably receiving a rosin bar, the internal cavity having a shape complementary to the shape of the rosin bar;
- inwardly extending lips formed at the upper ends of the sidewalls overlaying the internal cavity in the body to secure a rosin bar therein;
- and
- aligned aperture means formed in the end walls of the body and extending from the open top for enabling an article to be used for its intended purpose while being housed in the body, said aperture being of less width and height than the internal cavity to further secure a rosin bar therein;
- and
- the body being formed of a shock absorbing and resilient material for protecting the rosin bar housed here in from damage from external forces and to enable the sidewalls to be resiliently urged outward for removable insertion of a rosin bar into the body.
The rosin bar holder of claim 6 further including a plurality of outwardly extending ribs. formed on the lips.
The combination of a holder and a rosin bar for stringed instrument bow strings comprising:
- a body having sidewalls, end walls, a bottom and an open top, defining a internal cavity for removably receiving the rosin bar, the internal cavity having a shape complementary to the shape of the rosin bar;
- inwardly extending lips formed at the upper end of the sidewalls overlaying the internal cavity in the body to secure the rosin bar therein;
- aligned aperture means formed in the end walls of the body and extending from the open top for permitting a bow string to be drawn across the rosin bar while the rosin bar is in the body, said aperature being of less width and height than the internal cavity to further secure the rosin bar therein;
- and
- the body being formed of a shock absorbing and resilient material for protecting the rosin bar housed therein from damage from external forces and to enable the sidewalls to be resiliently urged outward for removable insertion of the rosin bar into the body.
