Specific embodiment

With reference first to Fig. 1-15, for notebook to be stored in the suspension type document drawer system of the type including a pair of tracks One embodiment of the hanger in system is designated generally as 101, and the track is in drawer and in the opposite side of drawer Between extend and by the opposite side of drawer support.Hanger 101 has a pair of of hook 103 in the opposite end of hanger, Notebook for being fastened to hanger in suspension type document drawer system to be suspended at.The shape of hook 103 can become Change, if hook respectively can later can in greater detail mode be fastened to notebook cover spine one end.

In the illustrated embodiment, hook 103 is substantially identical.However, it should be understood that if desired, hook Can have and configurations differing from one.Furthermore, it is to be understood that the shape of hook may differ from the shape of hook shown herein. Referring to Fig. 6 and 7, each of hook 103 is all with shank 105 and the end 107 being spaced apart with shank.It bending section 109 will Shank 105 is connected to end 107, so that there are spaces 111 between the shank and end of hook, for receiving notebook cover Edge.In the illustrated embodiment, the end 107 of each hook 103 is extended in its far-end far from corresponding shank 105, to be formed with the introducing portion for entering space 111 conducive to notebook cover.The shank 105 of hook 103, end 107 and curved Pars convoluta 109 is suitably integrally formed in such as moulding process and is integrated.However, if it is desired to the various parts of hook It may be separately formed and be secured to one another to form hook.

Each hook 103 in shown embodiment is mounted on slender member 115 (referring to Fig. 3 and Figure 16-20) End, the slender member 115 be configured to the edge of notebook spine be received in hook defined in space Extend along the ridge of notebook from hook 103 when in 111.For example, as shown in Figure 5, hanger 101 is configured appropriately At make constitute hanger and be located in hook 103 between essentially all structure all with hook 103 defined by space 111 deviate and with the shank of hook 105 on the same side in space.Although other shapes be it is possible, shown In embodiment, slender member 115 respectively has substantially rectangular periphery.Hook 103 is appropriately secured to respective members 115 At one end.For example, hook 103 is such as fitted by being molded as integral piece together in injection molding system with respective members 115 Locality is integrally formed.Slender member 115 is suitably configured to so that they are extended to from corresponding hook 103 is connected to hook Mutual interface 117.When the opposite top edge and lower edge of notebook spine is received in hook 103, suspension Device 101 extends to the lower edge of notebook spine along the back of notebook spine from the top edge of notebook spine (referring to fig. 2 3).

- 3, Fig. 6-7 and Figure 10-12 referring to Fig.1, hook 101 further includes support system 121, and the support system 121 can be used In by hanger and being fastened to any notebook of hanger and be supported on the track of suspension type drawer system.In shown reality It applies in scheme, support system includes a pair of of arm 123 of the opposite end of hanger 101.Each arm 123 uitably includes to be determined Position one support surface 125 come in engagement rail and the antelabium 127 angularly extended from support surface.

In the illustrated embodiment, arm 123 is substantially identical from one another, and retouching in detail to one in arm Stating will be enough to describe both.However, it should be understood that arm can be different from each other.It should also be understood that arm can have and arm as described herein Different shapes.Referring again to shown embodiment, each arm 123 can be suitably at retracted position (Fig. 1-2, Fig. 4-7) It is selectively moved between extended position (Figure 10-12).When each arm 123 is in extended position, the support surface 125 of arm It extends laterally to except adjacent hook 103.When each arm is in extended position, the antelabium 127 of arm links up with 103 by propping up with adjacent Surface 125 is supportted to be spaced apart.In retracted position, the antelabium 127 of each arm 123 is suitably adjacent or closely adjacent to phase The bending section 109 of neighbour's hook 103.For example, referring to Fig. 6 and 7, when arm 123 is in its retracted position, each antelabium 127 is appropriate The outer surface of the bending section 109 of the adjacent adjacent hook 103 in ground.

Referring to Fig. 3 and Fig. 6-7, arm 123 suitably has L-shape configuration, and wherein antelabium 127 forms L-shaped shorter section.Arm 123 longer section 129 (for example, substantially perpendicularly) extends from antelabium 127.In the illustrated embodiment, arm 123 Longer section 129 is substantially flat elongated board.Longer section 129 part adjacent with antelabium 127 forms support surface 125.The longer section 129 of arm 123 is properly secured to the slender member 115 of adjacent hook 103, so as in extended position and contracting Return slides movement between setting.

In the illustrated embodiment, the longer section 129 of arm 123 is received in groove 131 (Fig. 3, Figure 16 and figure 19) in, the groove 131 is formed in the end of slender member 115 of hanger 101.Arm 123 is located in groove 131 Part is protected in order to avoid the brought into incidental contact that may unintentionally make arm move between extended position and retracted position.123 He of arm Groove 131 is configured so that the antelabium 127 of each arm 123 cannot be received in a groove.For example, groove 131 is suitably The groove for the substantial rectangular being generally consistent with the longer section 129 of arm 123 in shape.The inlet portion of each groove 131 It is shaped so that it does not adapt to receive the antelabium 127 of arm 123 in groove.Therefore, the longer section 129 of arm 123 At least some parts (when arm retracts major part, and the smaller portions when arm stretches out) are always in groove 131, and antelabium 127 are easy to touch outside groove always, to move arm between extended position and retracted position.

Referring to Fig. 3 and Fig. 5-7, hanger 101 suitably has holding system 135, and the holding system 135 prevents arm 123 are moved to except extended position, and thus at least some parts of the longer section 129 of arm are maintained in groove 131.? In embodiment shown in attached drawing, holding system 135 includes a pair of of the backstop being laterally extended across each of groove 131 Part 137.As shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 5-7, stop part 137 is suitably substantially cylindrical cylinder, but if necessary Other shapes can be used.Stop part 137 suitably extends to the opposite side of groove (for example, from recessed from the side of groove 131 The top of slot is up to the bottom of groove).Stop part 137 is received in the elongated slot 139 being formed in arm 123.Work as arm When moving between its retracted position and extended position, stop part 137 is sliding between the opposite end of slit 139 relative to arm 123 It is dynamic.When arm 123 is in its extended position (Figure 10-13), stop part 137 is closed due to the adjacent of the end of they and slit 139 It is and arm is prevented further to move out groove 131.

Stop part 137 can be fastened in a variety of ways in the slit 139 in arm 123.For example, referring again to Fig. 2- 3, Fig. 5-7, Figure 11 and Figure 13, every a pair of stop part 137 are appropriately mounted on the plate 141 for being fastened to corresponding slender member 115. For example, plate 141 is suitably configured to snap connection with the formation of corresponding slender member 115.It snaps connection suitably substantially It is irreversible, it means that once plate 141 and slender member 115 have been fastened togather (such as in shown embodiment In), just the slender member 115 corresponding to its of plate 141 can not be made to separate with non-destructive mode easily.Slender member 115 is appropriate Ground has recessed area 145 (Figure 18 and 20), and the recessed area 145 is configured to receive one in plate 141.Recessed area 145 suitably generally in the form of channel, and the channel is formed in corresponding slender member 115, is used for so that channel is formed A part of the groove 131 of receiving arm 123.Slender member 115 and plate 141 be suitably configured to so that when plate be connected to it is elongated When component, plate covers the open sides of respective channel, so that plate and slender member are collectively form groove 131.Referring to Fig. 8, it is recessed A part holding in region 145 is not kept system 135 and occupies, to be the longer section 129 of arm 123 in hanger 101 Sliding space is provided.

Each plate 141 in shown embodiment can elasticity with one group at each position positioned onboard The supporting leg 143 (Fig. 3 and 8) of deformation.Supporting leg 143 suitably (for example, substantially vertically with plate) extends from the opposite side of plate 141 And have in the outwardly extending maintaining part 147 of its far-end.Slender member 115 and plate 141 are configured so that when plate positions When in recessed area, slender member 115 makes the supporting leg 143 on each plate in the outer circumference elasticity of corresponding recessed area 145 It deforms (for example, curving inwardly).As each plate 141 further moves in recessed area 145, on the end of supporting leg 143 Maintaining part 147 is respectively mobile to be aligned with the void space 149 (Fig. 8) extended radially outwardly into slender member 115.Once branch Maintaining part 147 on the end of leg 143 is aligned with void space 149, and maintaining part is just displaced outwardly because of the restoring force in supporting leg Into void space.When plate 141 is fully seated in recessed area 145, the engagement of maintaining part 147 is formed by void space 149 Shoulder 151.

Once maintaining part 147 is located in void space 149, it is recessed that shoulder 151 just prevents supporting leg 143 and plate 141 from moving out Region 145.Plate 141 and slender member 115 are suitably configured to so that the surface of each plate faced out and corresponding elongated structure The surface of part 115 is substantially flush, as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 5-7.In addition, the outer periphery of recessed area 145 by suitably at Form the outer periphery of matching disc 141.Once plate 141 snaps connection completely with slender member 115, due to can not be from hanger 101 Outside touch maintaining part 147 and void space 149, because maintaining part easily can not be moved out void space by this person.It keeps Once system 135 and slender member 115 are suitably provided that the elastic, resilient unit so that plate 141 is snapped connection with slender member, plate to concave area The movement of farther place is just restricted in domain 145.For example, referring to Fig. 8, supporting leg 143 is properly positioned through the end of supporting leg Engagement between portion and slender member carrys out prevention plate 141 and further moves in recessed area.This helps to reduce plate 141 and thin Long component 115 generates a possibility that pinching action that blocking extension 123 moves between a retracted position and an extended.

In the illustrated embodiment, plate 141 and slender member 115 are configured so that when hanger 101 is fastened to When notebook, plate is located on the same side adjacent with notebook spine of slender member 115.However, it should be understood that if needing It wants, plate and slender member may be configured such that, when plate is fastened to slender member, plate is in the opposite side of hanger.It should also manage Solution, if it is desired, holding system 135 shown herein can be substituted with different types of holding system.Such as, if it is desired, Rivet or other fasteners can extend across the elongated slot in arm to limit the movement of arm.

In order to be conducive to that hanger 101 is mounted on notebook in a manner of being described in more detail below, hanger Suitably having allows to link up with 103 is moved relative to each other between first position (Fig. 1-13) and the second position (Figure 14 and 15) Mechanism, in the first position, hook with the length of notebook spine it is about the same at a distance from be separated from each other, in institute State in the second position, hook than they in first position further be separated from each other.Can be used allow link up with 103 relative to The various mechanisms moved each other.For example, in the illustrated embodiment, the slender member 115 that hook 103 is fastened to is configured And it arranges for sliding movement between the first position of hook and the second position relative to each other.For example, referring to Figure 16-20, One (Figure 16-18) in slender member 115 suitably has relative narrower end 161, and the relative narrower end 161 is connect Be received in the relatively wide end 163 of another slender member (Figure 19-20) with formed between slender member interface 117 and Slender member is allowed to carry out telescopic slide relative to each other mobile.

Hanger 101 is suitably configured to basically prevent non-destructively being separated from each other slender member 115.Example Such as, in the illustrated embodiment, the relatively narrow end 161 of the elongate body 115 with relatively narrow end includes protruding portion 165, The protruding portion 165 is configured to cooperate in the channel 167 in the wider end 163 for being formed in another elongate body.Carefully Long slit or channel 169 are axially extending along protruding portion 165.Pawl 171 in elongate body 115 with wider end 163 (Figure 20) is positioned and is arranged extend into channel 169.Elongated passageway 169 is not extended to relatively narrow end 161 Slender member 115 protruding portion 165 end.Pawl 171 is suitably configured to beveled distal end, the beveled distal end It is oriented such that most short highest part of the part towards opposite elongate component 115 and pawl of pawl facing away from opposite elongate structure Part.The angled top of pawl 171 is by allowing to be located in pawl in the channel 169 of opposite elongate component using snap action And promote the assembling of hanger 101.

Referring to Fig. 3 and 9, protruding portion 165 has a flange 173 extended along its side, and the flange 173 is received in pair It answers in slot 175, the corresponding groove 175 is formed in the side for the slender member 115 that interface has wider end 163.It is convex The engagement constraint of edge 173 and slot 175 make slender member relative to each other by pawl 171 from the direction that channel 169 is extracted out Mobile ability.When slender member 115 is slided relative to each other to increase or reduce the distance between hook 103, pawl 171 It can be slided in channel 169.However, pawl 171 and channel 169 are adjacent to the engagement between the end of the distal end of protruding portion 165 It limits slender member 115 and is moved away from mutual degree.Because the upper section of pawl 171 is detent contact channel 169 End part, so the identical snap action of the angled top using pawl used during assembly will be unavailable for making Slender member 115 is disconnected from each other connection.On the contrary, the engagement between pawl 171 and the end in channel 169 basically prevents non-demolition It is separated from each other slender member 115 to property.

Hanger 101 is also configured such that the degree that the limitation of interface 117 hook 103 can move towards each other.This can have The amount of compressing force of the notebook supported by hanger 101 can be applied to by helping limitation.For example, in shown embodiment In, when hook 103 is in first position, shoulder 181 on the slender member 115 with relatively narrow end 161 is adjacent have compared with The edge 183 of the slender member in wide end portion 163.The contiguous engagement of shoulder 181 on narrow end slender member 115 prevents hook 103 Further towards moving each other.If desired, other configurations and the arrangement of slender member can be used limit hook can be towards that The degree of this movement.

Hanger 101 be suitably configured to so that link up with 103 and slender member 115 towards first position (described In one position, hook is more closely spaced each other) biasing.For example, referring to Fig. 2-3, Fig. 5, Fig. 9, Figure 11 and Figure 15, biasing member 187 are positioned and are arranged to resist hook 103 (and slender member 115) and move away from each other.Biasing member 187 suitably connects It is connected to each of slender member 115 and spring that crossover ports 117 extend between slender member, such as helical spring. For example, the end of spring 187 is suitably connected to the cylinder 189 on slender member 115, so that when slender member 115 is mobile remote From each other, spring elongation.In the illustrated embodiment, spring 187 has and preloads, so that bias force is in slender member It is more uniform in 115 entire motion range.For example, in the illustrated embodiment, the cylinder mounted thereto of spring 187 189 be oriented it is remote enough from each other so that when slender member be in relationship adjacent to each other and link up with 103 in its first When position (in the first position, they are closer to each other), spring has been in draw configuration.

In the illustrated embodiment, there are substantially identical two springs 187.Spring 187 extends through Channel 191, the channel 191 are formed in the protruding portion 165 on the end of the slender member 115 with relatively narrow end 161.It protects Portion 193 is held to extend on the open sides in each channel 191, with hold the spring in channel and the end of limited spring will The risk that the cylinder 189 mounted thereto from spring slides.Using two springs 187 be conducive to by spring positioning with hanger The position deviateed of central longitudinal axis in (for example, with pawl 171 and being used for the channel of pawl to avoid by spring positioning In 169 identical positions).If desired, there is a possibility that with single bias spring.However, in the sliding axis of slender member 115 Opposite side on can more uniformly be distributed bias force using two bias springs 187, and can lead to the smoother of slender member Sliding action.In contrast, single bias spring can produce can lead to the telescopic slide of slender member 115 movement it is opposite In conjunction with the unbalanced moment of the type of movement.However, it should be understood that without departing from the scope of the invention, can be used single A biasing member, including single spring (either on central axis or and center axis deviation).If should also be understood that needs It wants, biasing member (being maintained in desired locations for example, 103 will be linked up with using frictional force) can be omitted.

Hanger 101 also suitably includes tag display system 201, and the tag display system 201 is conducive to display packet The label 203 of information containing the content about the notebook supported by hanger.For example, tag display system 201 is by suitably Configuration is come releasable by label 203 (Fig. 3 and 21) in the case where label is fastened to hanger without using any adhesive Ground is fastened to hanger, and mode is so that label is visible when hanger supports notebook.In shown embodiment party In case, tag display system 201 includes transparent configuration 205 (broad sense Shangdi, " label cover "), and the transparent configuration 205 is positioned And it arranges label 203 to be maintained between transparent configuration and the other component of hanger 101 on hanger 101.For example, thoroughly Between one that label 203 is suitably maintained in transparent configuration and slender member 115 by bright structure 205.
