A holder for keys on rings has a belt retaining flattened loop through which a belt passes. The flattened loop has a front face formed by a short top leg and a longer bottom leg that is bent inwardly to resiliently engage the front surface of the belt to prevent the device from inadvertently sliding off the belt. The lower leg forms a bight that holds a clasp member of a clasp and receptacle combination well known in the art of molded plastic strap buckles on luggage. The receptacle member that releasably locks onto the clasp member is constructed to hold one or more rings of keys. The receptacle member with its keys can be released and reattached to the belt with one hand. The belt retaining portion may be removed from or attached to the belt without unbuckling the belt.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A key holder adapted to be mounted on a belt, the holder comprising:a) a belt fastener portion having a flattened loop configuration with two open ends adapted for passing the belt therethrough, one uninterrupted broad first side, and an opposed broad second side made up of a short upper leg and a longer lower leg, with a gap between the two legs, and the lower leg bent inward toward the first side and being sufficiently resilient such that the lower leg is adapted to resiliently engage a broad face of the belt to prevent the holder from inadvertently slipping off the belt when the belt is unbuckled, the lower leg forming a bight at the lower end of the loop;b) a receptacle member including a generally flat tubular body having relatively wider front and back walls and relatively narrower side walls, an opening at a first end of said body for receiving a clasp member, and locking slot means including a pair of through slots formed in opposing facing relation in said side walls and spaced apart from said opening in said one end a predetermined distance, and a key ring retaining member affixed to a second end of said body;c) a clasp member including a base member and a pair of resilient arms extending outwardly from opposite ends of said base member, each of said resilient arms including locking tab means for releasably engaging said locking slot means of said receptacle member; andd) a bar member extending parallel to said base member and having ends attached to said base member away from resilient arms, said bar member constructed for being held within said bight of said belt fastener portion.
