The Ikoflex (850/16) is a TLR camera that was made by Zeiss Ikon from 1934 till 1937.
Because of its shape it got the nickname "Coffee can".

Confusingly, the Ikoflex II (851/16) was renamed Ikoflex I (850/16) in 1939.[1].

It creates 6x6cm negatives (or slides) on 120 film or 620 film and has separate counters for each film type. Interestingly, as not that common with MF TLR's, the film transport runs horizontally.
