Abstract
A casing for containing writing utensils or the like comprises a casing body for containing any desired number of writing or other utensils, and an annular supporting member for supporting the casing body such that it can be pivoted from a horizontal to a substantially vertical position. A suction member is located such that its working surface is spaced away from the lower end of the annular supporting member, and a position regulating mechanism is provided for pivotally supporting the annular supporting member. The position regulating mechanism is adapted to displace the working surface of the suction member between a first position at which it comes into close contact with an object and a second position at which it does not.
