Description

MULTI-FUNCTION DOCUMENT CLIP
Background of the invention Technical field of the invention This invention relates to a multi-function document clip device that can be archived and contains no force handle, it more specifically relates to a document clip device that, through the sliding force and pulling force of the two thin, soft and long mats within the document clip body, the document can be easily put into the document clip for tight clipping; moreover, in the document clip device, a rotary archiving device is used so that when the document is not archived, the document archiving device can be rotated to beside the document, when the document is to be archived, the archiving device can then be rotated out and the document clip can be archived to the fine and long fixing nail of the large document clip; by doing so, the document needs not to be punched with holes for archiving and the document archiving time can be effectively reduced.

Prior art "Document clip" is very important stationery for the daily life and there are many types of document clips for different purposes available in the market.
Figure 7 shows a prior art document clip which uses a bent metallic board to form a triangular clip body; meanwhile, it is installed with two clip pieces PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com I

and 62 which are opposite and oblique to each other with certain degree of outward spring force; when document paper is inserted into the two clip pieces, the spring force can be used to clip the paper, however, the outward bending openings of the ends 63 and 64 of two clip pieces of the document clip are very small, it is then very difficult to expand the clip opening for use just by bare hand; instead, document clip pusher has to be used to expand the opening of the document clip; however, the usual case is, when the user wants to clip the document, the document clip pusher usually can not be found, and the clipping action then can not be completed; moreover, the document clip pusher needs to be loaded into the document clip when it is in use, the use is then very inconvenient.

Figure 8 shows the prior art hole-penetrating accessory for long tail clip (Fold Back Binder Clip); when the locking part 73 of curved hook at the right side of the figure is opened, the main body of the long tail clip will be penetrated into the gap between upper layer 72 and lower layer 71 clip body;
then the upper layer 72 and lower layer 71 clip body is used to clip the arc wall of the long tail clip, then the locking part 73 of the curved hook is locked tight, and then round penetrating hole 74 is used to penetrate into the fine and long fixing nail of the large document clip for archiving; however, the size of the hole-penetrating accessory needs to match different document clip sizes available in the market before it can be used, and the usual case is, when the document is to be archived, no hole-penetrating accessory of PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com appropriate size can be found, and the archiving job then can not be completed; moreover, when the hole-penetrating accessory is put onto the document clip, it will make a protrusion beside the arc wall of the document clip; meanwhile, before the archiving of the document clip, the hole-penetrating accessory can not be rotated to beside the document clip for hiding, which in turn causes bad looking issue and inconvenience; moreover, after the long tail clip is put on the hole-penetrating accessory and clip the document to archive it to the document clip, because there are two force handles that need to be pressed down to clip the upper and lower page of the document, it becomes very inconvenient to flip over the archived document;
finally, when the clipped document is to be archived, the document needs to be unloaded from the document clip before the hole-penetrating accessory can be put on and the document can be clipped for archiving, in other words, the use is very inconvenient.

Therefore, due to many of the drawbacks during the use of the prior art document clip and hole-penetrating accessory, the inventor of this patent has performed many experiments and invented a multi-function document clip without force handle and can be archived.

Summary of the invention PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com i Technical problem to be solved There are so many document clips and accessories available in the market, but most of them can not satisfy consumer's demand. For example, long tail clip has two force handles, which in turn leads to the inconvenience in flipping the document for reading after archiving. However, for document clip without force handle, the document can only be clipped tight with the assistance of document clip pusher; moreover, some document clips do not have archiving device, additional archiving device needs to be purchased before the archiving action can be performed; in regular paper clip, document too thick can not be clipped tight; moreover, after paper is clipped tight by the document clip, since there is no thin mat between the document clip and the paper, paper of the first and last page can easily be damaged;
therefore, the inventor of this patent has devised a multi-function document clip.

Technical means for solving the problem In this invention, a multi-function document clip is provided, which has a one-body two-pieces thin, soft and long mat placed within the inside of the clip body of the prior art document clip (as shown in figure 7, which needs the assistance of document clip pusher to clip tight the document);
meanwhile, an archiving device is installed at the external side of the arc wall of the document clip, and an assembly wire is used to fix the document PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www:pdffactory.com clip, long mat and archiving device to form a multi-function document clip.
The main function of the thin, soft and long mat placed on the inside of the clip body of the document as proposed by the current invention is to expand the opening of the document clip for the placement of the document through the sliding force and pulling force of the mat; if the document is not thick, the document can be placed between the two mats, and the sliding force can be used to clip the document, then push forward the document to insert it;
when the document is thicker, the two mats need to be pulled outwards, the pulling force is used to expand the opening of the document clip, then the document can be pushed inwards; moreover, since there is a mat lies between the document clip and the paper, the first and last page of the document won't be damaged; furthermore, since the mat is of soft material, the flipping of the document for reading becomes very easy after archiving.
The archiving device provided in this invention is to drill a hole on a plastic piece; moreover, there are two rolled up small round holes beside the plastic piece, and the two small round hole device is used to be put on the assembly wire and to be fixed beside the document clip; when the document is not archived, the plastic piece can be rotated to beside the document, when the document is to be archived, the plastic piece can be rotated out and be put on the fine and long fixing nail of the large document clip.

Detailed Description of Preferred embodiments How to assemble multi-function document clip Please refer to figure 2. The current invention is to provide a multi-function document clip device comprising of a prior art document clip 1, document clip mat 2, archiving device 3 and assembly wire 4; the document clip mat is formed in single body through two thin, soft and long mats of lower piece 21 and upper piece 22; the right side is a transitional part 23; when it is to be assembled, the transitional part 23 of the mat is pushed into the small opening between the upper layer 14 and lower layer 13 at the end of the document clip; meanwhile, assembly wire 4 is used to penetrate through the transitional part 23 between two mats 21 and 22 to fix it beside arc wall 15 of the document clip; meanwhile, two ends 41 and 42 of assembly wire are used, at the external side of the arc wall 15, to penetrate respectively through two small round holes 31 and 32 of the archiving device and have it tied tightly at the notch 33; the archiving device and document clip mat can then be fixed on both sides of the document clip.

PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com How to use multi-function document clip Please refer to figure 1 and 3. There are two methods for the document clip to clip tight a document. When the document is not thick, the pyramidal notch 24 of the document clip mat is used to contact the document vertically, and then document clip 1 is rotated, the lower piece 21 and upper piece 22 of document clip mat then get opened naturally to confine the document, then the document clip is pushed forward; moreover, since there is a small opening at the lower layer clip opening 13 and upper layer clip opening 14 at the end of the document clip, the sliding force can be used to naturally expand and clip the document tight; when the document is thicker, the lower piece 21 and upper piece 22 of the document clip mat will be pulled outwards first, the lower layer clip opening 13 and upper layer 14 at the end of the document clip will then get expanded along with the pulling force;
then the document is placed in and the upper piece 22 and lower piece 21 of the document clip mat are released, and the document can then be clipped tight; in addition, since the lower piece 21 and upper piece 22 of the document clip mat are of soft materials, when the document is clipped tight by the document clip, the document can be easily flipped for reading, not only it is very convenient, but also the paper won't get damaged; moreover, when the document is to be archived, only the penetrated hole 34 of the archiving device 3 needs to be put into the fine and long fixing nail of the large document clip; when it is not to be archived, small round holes 31 and PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 32 and assembly wire 4 can be used to rotate the archiving device 3 to beside document clip lower layer 11 or upper layer 12 (please refer to figure 5) to avoid the inconvenience caused by the protrusion.

Supplemental descriptions (1).In order to let the user use this invention easily, the upper layer and lower layer of the document mat of the current invention can be designed as different shapes and lengths so as to distinguish upper layer and lower layer;
please refer to figure 6, which is an illustration of another usage status of the embodiment of the current invention; it can be seen in the figure that the length of the upper mat 22 is shorter than that of the lower mat 21 to facilitate the placement of the document.

(2).Because this invention needs a lot of manpower to assemble three components with assembly wire 4, in order to reduce the cost in the manufacture process of this invention, three components (document clip mat 2, archiving device 3 and assembly wire 4) of this invention are integrated together and formed one-body of multi-function document clip mat 5; please refer to figure 9 and figure 10, there are a clip entrance hole 54 and an archiving hole 55 on the multi-function document clip mat 5, small opening of document clip 1 can be expanded to penetrate through clip entrance hole 54, then the lower layer mat 51 and upper layer mat 52 can be clipped tightly PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com I

by the document clip 1; moreover, when the document will be archived, the archiving hole 55 can be used to put the document clip to the fine and long fixing nail of the large document clip.
