Description

Ring binder

The present invention relates to ring binder, particularly relate to a grip assembly of ring binder.

Up to the present, ring binder make the back with various files (file, folio, folder, portfolio binder) transports respectively, file is made by cardboard usually, although other material neither be rare as plastics.

Then, ring binder fits together in a fixed manner with various files again, and, adopting rivet in the past always.Rivet itself is expensive, and is less usually, can lose, and need expensive instrument just can be installed on the ring binder, and this makes that cost is expensive and assembling is complicated.

Correspondingly, the objective of the invention is to attempt to reduce these shortcomings.

According to a first aspect of the invention, provide a grip assembly that forms ring binder, comprised independently erecting device of ring binder element and several, each erecting device is suitable for mounting circular ring loose-leaf binder element and it is fixed on the matrix.

Each erecting device can comprise board-like device, and this board-like device can have edge guiding portion, and this edge guiding portion is suitable for mounting circular ring loose-leaf binder element in use.

This makes assembling be easier to, and particularly, edge guiding portion can comprise the opposed facing part with folding edge, to limit the groove of the marginal portion that holds the ring binder element respectively.Therefore, the assembly that provides better simply pushing away-slide to install, this can be finished by artificial or machine.

Each groove can have open guiding nozzle, in use to make described marginal portion insert easily.

This structure makes easy to assembly.

Erecting device can be the device that comprises the part that can insert matrix, in use erecting device is fixed on the matrix.This makes erecting device singly to push fixing, particularly, all the more so when erecting device is included in essence cylindrical circular insertion portion by tube.

Can have two such insertion portions, to guarantee fixed installation.

Each insertion portion can comprise retaining part, and particularly, this retaining part is the shape of several teeth, and this simple structure can be integrated with erecting device.

Each erecting device can comprise the part that matches, and it matches with the part that matches of ring binder element.This makes can assemble each assembly securely.

The part that matches can comprise bossing upwards, and to be suitable for lock fit in blind groove, blind groove itself can comprise the part that matches of ring binder element.

This has formed simple plug structure.

Blind groove can form the board-like end of ring binder housing.This has formed simple structure.

Blind groove can form the closed end of groove onboard, and its lateral dimension is suitable for holding bossing in the assembling process of ring binder element and erecting device.

An elongated ring binder can only be arranged, and it has the annulus of several spaces, particularly, has two annulus.

According to a second aspect of the invention, provide a kind of ring binder, it is assembled by an above-mentioned grip assembly.

Ring binder can comprise the unique elongated ring binder element in the assembly.

Ring binder element and erecting device can comprise metal, particularly, can be made by proper metal.

According to a third aspect of the invention we, provide a kind of file, loose-leaf binder, loose-leaf note book, loose-leaf notebook, information kit or similarly file (file, folio, folder, portfolio, binder), it comprises above-mentioned ring binder.

Be illustrated to a grip assembly of formation ring binder with by the ring binder that said modules is assembled into below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.

Fig. 1 is the perspective view of the grip assembly of the present invention seen from the below;

Fig. 2 is the perspective view of the grip assembly as shown in Figure 1 seen from the top, has the element that is fixed on the matrix, and this is the first step of assembling process;

Fig. 3 shows with Fig. 2 and similarly schemes, and this is second step of assembling process;

Fig. 4 is the end-view of assembly as shown in Figure 3;

Fig. 5 is the side view of assembly as shown in Figure 4, partly shows the longitudinal cross-section; With

Fig. 6 is the decomposition diagram of a grip assembly.

As shown in drawings, what illustrate is a grip assembly 1 that forms ring binder 2, it comprises independently erecting device 4 of ring binder element 3 and several, and each erecting device 4 comprises the

part

5,6 that is suitable for mounting circular ring loose-leaf binder element, and described element is fixed on the matrix 7.

In an illustrated embodiment, element 3 is elongated elements, circle ring device 8 with two spaces, each circle ring device 8 comprises two parts 8 ', 8 "; each part 8 ', 8 " be separately fixed at corresponding plate 9 ', 9 ", plate 9 ', 9 " link together with the mode elasticity of knowing, like this, when 8 ', 8 " when being pushed to mutually together with formation annulus 8, plate 9 ', 9 " pivot around center line.Each plate is housed in one and is in the metal cap 10 of integral body, this metal cap 10 has the board-like part 12 of the leveling at the edge 11 of bending and two ends, the blind groove 14 that board-like part 12 has following peripheral flange 13 and extends to the inside from the end, the cross section of blind groove 14 takes the shape of the letter U, and has the groove 15 that is limited blind groove end by sidewall.

Assembly 1 comprises element 3 and two erecting devices 4 in the present embodiment, and each erecting device is board-like, is made by a slice metal.Each erecting device 4 has edge guiding portion 16, the bending that edge guiding portion comprises or the edge of crimping, and to limit the groove of open-ended, the height of this groove exactly enough provides thrust to realize sliding and installs to hold transverse edge 12.In the present embodiment, groove has open guiding nozzle, so that easy to assembly.In a side opposite of each erecting device with groove, have two columnar insertion devices 17, the free end of this insertion device is a holding device, this holding device comprises outside open tooth 18.

Insert between the device at two, in a side identical with erecting device, groove has bossing, i.e. the projection 19 of taper, and its size can match with blind groove 15, like this, has formed the element that can cooperatively interact between blind groove and the projection.

The assembly 1 that comprises element 3 and two erecting devices 4 can be stored and transport individually, and this makes and store easily, packs and transportation, and reduces cost.

When wanting installation component 1, only need erecting device 3 is installed on the matrix 7, for example, matrix 7 can be a paperboard strip, the method for installation is that tooth 18 is pressed into cardboard, makes tooth 18 insert cardboard, and device 4 is remained in the cardboard.

Should be appreciated that, device 4 is installed with correct spacing, like this, element 2 can be installed between two devices 4, and to be assembled into complete ring binder, method is that flange 12 is installed in the groove 16, in groove 16, slide far as much as possible, under any circumstance, all to slide into projection 12 is matched with groove 15, thereby each unit firmly is fitted together.

After at one end installing, an other end is installed again.In addition, each assembly also can fit together and form the ring binder that assembling finishes, and then, by being installed on the matrix 7 and forcing its location to be assembled, keeps the location in desirable position to complete institute device 2,3 under the effect of tooth.

Then, matrix 7 be installed in file, loose-leaf binder, loose-leaf note book, loose-leaf notebook, information kit (file, folio, folder, portfolio is binder) on the desirable position of Denging.In addition, matrix also can with file, loose-leaf binder, loose-leaf note book, loose-leaf notebook, information kit (file, folio, folder, portfolio, binder) etc. integrated.

Should be appreciated that the ring binder element can comprise plural annulus.In addition, the loose-leaf binder assembly also can comprise two ring binder elements, and each ring binder comprises one or more annulus and two erecting devices.
