Title: Holder for leaf-shaped objects

The invention is based on one in DE-PS 24 33 528 described holder for sheet-shaped objects, in which, the sheet in a suitable position for reading is partially pressed against a curved surface by means of spring pressure, the curvature of which is along a vertical one Axis runs horizontally, with the feather being narrower, over an entire side of the sheet extending, flexible strip is formed, which presses against the curvature in the working position and can be withdrawn by means of a handle attached to the introduction of the information carrier.

The present invention is based on the object to train the known holder so that its handling in terms of retraction and the

-δ-

In-work position bringing the flexible strip to the Introduction and removal of the information carrier, also taking into account the simplified Manufacture of the holder, is made much easier.

To solve the problem a holder for 'sheet-like objects of the type mentioned

proposed, which is characterized in that the flexible strip on at least one flexible End has a lever action on the strip handle part that the curvature having body protrudes laterally. The handle part can be plugged onto the flexible strip or be formed integrally connected therewith.

With the holder according to the invention, the essential advantage is achieved that moving back and · Bringing the flexible strip to work?

very simply by pushing or pulling on the body showing the curvature ^{since 1}

standing handle part can be made. Because the "tilting" of the flexible strip in its bearings takes place through the spring action of the strip, all you need to do is tap the handle part with your finger, to bring the strip into the two possible positions.

Advantageous developments of the invention are in the subclaims described, which essentially relate to preferred embodiments of the handle, of the strip and its storage.

On the basis of the drawing, the example of a

Referred embodiment, the subject matter of the invention will be explained in more detail.

In the drawing shows

shows in side view (and in enlarged Scale) an outer end of the flexible strip with attached handle.

further possible embodiment of the holder according to the invention.

Fig. 4 shows a flexible one in side view

Strip for the holder according to FIG. 3.

Fig. 5 shows a perspective illustration further possible embodiment of the holder according to the invention.

As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, there is an exemplary embodiment of the holder for sheet-shaped objects according to the invention made of one made of plastic or synthetic glass existing body 1, which has a concave curvature 2 on one side and the means any type of fastening on a table, for example represented by a ball joint 3 a typewriter, a data processing device or the like can be attached.

At the two ends, the body 1, directed inwardly towards the curvature 2, has angular recesses 4, 5, in which a more flexible and preferably the thickness of the body 1 protruding on both sides made of transparent material strip 6 is used. To this end, the strip points at one end a recess 7 and in the area of the other end a recess 8, whose Inner edges rest in the angled recesses 4, 5.

At one end, the flexible strip 6 has an attached handle part 9, which for this purpose is recessed in a U-shape on one side and has grooves 10, 11 in the two legs, which protrude Reach over the edges of the strip 6 in the region of the outer end.

By simply pressing or tapping the handle part 9, the resilient strip 6 snaps from the working position shown in full lines the open position 6 'shown in dashed lines, the handle part then moving along the Double arrow 12 in the at 9 'shown in dashed lines Position.

In this position a sheet can be placed between the curve 2 and the flexible strips 6 'in opposite curvature are inserted, whereupon by simply tapping the handle part 9 'in the opposite direction of the double arrow 12 the flexible Strip is pressed back into the curvature 2 and holds the sheet there.

In Fig. ' 3 is another way of storing the flexible strip shown on the body 1 having the curvature 2. The body 1 points to the two Two projecting lugs 13j 14 end in which recesses 15, 16 are provided.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, the flexible strip 6 has a protruding one at one end for this purpose Tongue 17 and in the area of the other end a recess 18 into which a tongue 19 jumps. The handle part 20 is in this case integrally connected to the flexible strip, and how Is shown in phantom, at the other end a further handle part 20 'in a mirror-inverted manner

can be provided.

The two tongues 17, 19 are inserted into the two recesses 15, 16 in the lugs 13, 14, whereby the strip has the same positions as in Fig.

1 can take.

In Fig. 5 is another embodiment of the Holder shown according to the invention. In this design there is only one end of the curve

2 having body 1 a small extension 21 is provided, which has a recess 22. At the other At the end, the flexible strip 23 is connected to the body 1 via a film hinge joint 24, the Handle part 25 is integrally connected to the flexible strip 23. The flexible strip 23 faces the other the outer end has a tongue 26 which is inserted into the recess 22 in the attachment 21. In this

In the event that the flexible strip 23 can assume exactly the same positions as in FIGS. 1 and 3, wherein the embodiment shown in dashed lines is indicated by 23 '.

The strip 23 can also serve as a viewing slot and extend over most of its length Have recess 27, whereby a glare-free reading of the underlying sheet or information carrier is achieved.

The flexible strip could also have a second film hinge instead of the tongue at the outer end to be connected to the body 1.
