Abstract
The container (10) has a plurality of slots (14) for the insertion of check or credit cards to be held by it. So that each card can be removed individually, rockers (22) are pivotably mounted at a rear end face (20) of the container (10), are joined to one another integrally by way of resilient connectors (36) so as to be movable relative to one another and are joined integrally with push rods (38) extending to a front face (16) of the container by way of a strip hinge (40). By pressing on push buttons formed on the push rods (38) at the front face, the rockers (22) pivot and push the card in question out of the container (10). The invention has the advantage that the rockers (22) can be produced integrally with one another and with their push rods (38) in the form of an injection-molded component.
