Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a binding tool. More specifically, the present invention relates to a binding tool for binding a document including a main body provided with a binding metal and an underlay engaged with the main body.

[0002]

[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices]

 As a binding tool for binding documents, the one shown in FIG. 11 is conventionally known. This is composed of a main body 51 made of paper or synthetic resin, and a binding fitting 52 provided on the main body 51.

The binding member 52 is composed of a pressing portion 54 which is biased by a spring 53 in the arrow X direction.

In the case of this binding device, since the document is held by the pressing force of the pressing portion 54 which is biased by the spring 53, the document can be easily bound and pulled out. Therefore, it is widely used as a means for temporary storage of documents.

Such a conventional binding device is a form in which a plurality of documents such as a delivery note, an invoice, and a copy form one set, and a carbon paper is inserted between the one set and another set. When filling in the bound paper, it is necessary to insert the underlay between the one set in the document and the other adjacent set. Therefore, for example, the driver of a courier must always carry a delivery note, a copy of a copy, etc., and an underlay when delivering a package. For this reason, for example, when arriving at a delivery destination on the upper floor of a large building, the user has to return to the car because he has forgotten the underlayment.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the above-mentioned conventional binding devices and to provide a binding device in which an underlay is incorporated.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The binding device of the present invention comprises a main body that has a substantially rectangular shape and supports a document on which binding metal is provided, and an underlay that has a rectangular shape slightly smaller than the main body. A binding device comprising an underlay provided with a raised portion, characterized in that the main body is provided with an engaging means for engaging with a protrusion provided on the underlay.

Further, the binding metal member is provided near a side edge of the main body, and the engaging means is a loop shape near a side edge of the main body and near both ends of the side edge facing the binding tool. The wire is attached to the underlay, and the protrusion provided on the underlay is provided near two adjacent vertices of the underlay.

Further, it is preferable that a ridge is provided on at least one of the two side edges adjacent to the side edge on which the binding metal fitting is provided.

Further, the engaging means is provided with two ridges provided in parallel to each other on the side edge adjacent to the side edge provided with the binding metal fitting, which is opposed to each other, and provided on the ridge. And the protrusions provided on the underlay are protrusions provided in the vicinity of two adjacent apexes of the underlay. It is preferable.

[0011]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The binding device of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

With reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, a binding tool 1 according to the present embodiment has a substantially rectangular shape that supports a document F, a main body 3 provided with a binding fitting 2, and a little more than the main body 3. It is composed of an underlay 4 having a small rectangular shape.

The material of the main body 3 is preferably a synthetic resin such as polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene from the viewpoints of ease of processing, durability, weight (light weight), and cost. However, it may be a metal such as an iron plate or an aluminum plate, or paper, or a combination of synthetic resin and paper, and is not particularly limited. As the material of the underlay 4, in addition to the same synthetic resin as the main body 3, a transparent synthetic resin such as polypropylene can be used.

In the case of the present embodiment, the protrusions 4 a and 4 b are provided at the apexes adjacent to each other of the underlayment 4.

The lower end 4L of the underlay 4 slightly protrudes from the side edge B of the main body 3 in a normal use state (see FIG. 3).

The binding fitting 2 is attached near the side edge A of the main body 3. In the present embodiment, the binding fitting 2 is composed of the pressing portion 2a biased in the direction of arrow X by a spring (not shown), but a fastener is used instead of the pressing portion 2a. Also included in the present invention.

Loop-shaped wires 5 a functioning as engaging means 5 are fixed near both ends of the side edge B of the main body 3. The protrusions 4a and 4b are engaged with the wire 5a (see FIG. 2).

The wire 5a is rotatably inserted into three tubes T provided on the back surface of the main body 3 (the surface where the binding metal is not provided) (see FIG. 3). The tube T can be fixed to the main body 3 with a binder such as an acrylic resin adhesive, a synthetic resin adhesive such as polyurethane or polychloroprene, but can also be fixed with a vinyl tape or the like. When the main body 3 and the tube T are made of synthetic resin, they can be firmly fixed by heat fusion.

However, from the viewpoint of durability, the tube T has a groove G having a T-shaped cross section formed on the back surface of the main body 3 in a direction traversing the main body 3 as shown in FIGS. It is most preferable to have a configuration including a leg portion E fitted in the groove G and a receiving portion E ₂ formed integrally with the leg portion E ₁ . The number of tubes T is preferably three, as in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, but may be one or two, or may be four or more. . A gap TS is provided in the longitudinal direction of the tube T for fitting the case 5 of the tube T shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 into the tube T.

Further, in the case of the present embodiment, a ridge portion 6 is formed in the vicinity of the side edge C in parallel with the side edge C. The ridge portion 6 functions as a guide for aligning the orientation of the documents in a fixed direction when binding a plurality of documents.

FIG. 6 shows a modification of the embodiment shown in FIGS. In this embodiment, the binding metal fitting 2 is provided near the side edge D of the main body 3, and the loop-shaped wire 5a is provided near both ends of the side edge C of the main body 3.

Next, referring to FIGS. 7 to 10, a binding device 1 according to still another embodiment of the present invention is provided with the side edge C near the side edges C and D of the main body 3 as the engaging means 5. And ridges 10 and 11 formed parallel to D 1 are provided, and the ridges 10 and 11 are formed with elongated holes 10a and 11a. The projections 4a and 4b of the underlay 4 are engaged with the elongated holes 10a and 11a, respectively. The vertical length of the long holes 10a and 11a is not particularly limited, but is preferably about 1 to 2 cm. The lengths of the elongated holes 10a and 11a in the longitudinal direction are substantially equal to the lengths of the side edges C and D of the main body 3.

In the case of the present embodiment, the ends of the projecting ridges 10 and 11 slightly project from the side edge B of the main body 3. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, when the underlayment 4 is not used, it is easy to droop vertically. However, the present invention is not limited to such a configuration. For example, when the end portions of the ridges 10 and 11 are at the position of the side edge B or inside thereof (see FIG. 9), as shown in FIG. Protrusions 4a and 4b may be provided on the arm portions 4c and 4d, respectively, and slits S ₁ and S ₂ into which the arm portions 4c and 4d are fitted may be formed in the main body 3.
