Definitions

  • the present invention relates to means for classifying various information of the direct reading type carried by a mobile support.
  • the technical field concerned by the invention is that of the classification of files constituted by flat supports such as sheets, cards, tickets, etc.
  • T-shaped cards that is to say comprising a stepped upper shelf. These cards are each inserted into a slot in a support, such as a bulletin board.
  • a support such as a bulletin board.
  • Such sheets provide an overall visual appreciation of the characteristic of several sheets carried by a table and therefore offer a service superior to that of the above methods.
  • a drawback of such files lies in the difficulty of storing, using, storing and classifying them when they must be associated with a mobile file or also when they must constitute a memory aid or a reminder. by being arranged, for such an intermediate or temporary function, outside the classification panel and near the workstation of a user that they must inform.
  • T-shaped plugs are not always easily accessible by their upper range when they occupy a display support and the user sometimes encounters certain difficulties in placing or removing a plug in relation to a collection.
  • the present invention aims to remedy the above drawbacks by proposing a classification device, of the kind described for example in document US-A-2,226,976, particularly designed to represent a portable assembly ensuring an effective connection between cards and supports of so as to allow efficient and practical functional classification and safe transport from a storage location to a geographically distant workplace.
  • each plug has at least one directional locking relative to the support so as to be subject to the latter and thus allow handling without risk of disturbance or loss.
  • An additional object of the invention is that it is possible to give a classification file a format multiple of a basic format while maintaining all the advantages offered by the object of the invention. It is thus possible for the user to choose the format that best suits him according to the mass of information to be transcribed.
  • Fig. 1 shows a sheet according to the invention designated as a whole by the reference F.
  • This sheet F consists of a sheet of paper or other similar material, of general format, for example rectangular.
  • the plug F is arranged, in the direction of use, so that its length is oriented horizontally.
  • the dimensions of the sheet F may or may not correspond to a standardized format and, in an example of practical implementation, such a format may correspond to that of ordinary bank checks.
  • the sheet F comprises, in one of its vertical sides and, in the example, the left side 1 in consideration of the direction of use defined above, a notch 2 which is delimited by an edge 3 parallel to the horizontal side upper 4 and by an inclined edge 5 extending to the edge 3 in the direction of the side 4.
  • the notch 2 is completed by a cut or incision 6 extending in the extension of the edge 3 to a measure substantially equal to the length of the latter.
  • the notch 2 is made to be located at a distance e from the horizontal side 4, chosen to represent at least an upper range useful for the registration of generic identification information of the card. For example, a minimum distance e of between 5 and 8 millimeters can be used. It is certain, however, that the notch 2 could be located at a distance e from the side 4 which is considerably greater.
  • the device of the invention also comprises a file designated as a whole by the reference S in FIG. 2.
  • the file S consists of a plate, sheet, card or other rigid support 12 which can be made of any suitable material and having dimensions greater than those of a sheet F.
  • the dimensions of the support 12 are determined according to the storage or classification capacity and method of storing the F cards. According to fig. 2, the support 12 is provided to support seven sheets F arranged relatively in a superimposed layout, but it is certain that another capacity can be provided by providing for a different layout. In this regard, it can be envisaged to use a support 12 offering an implantation in a single vertical column, or possibly in parallel vertical columns.
  • the support 12 includes removable engagement and retention means 13.
  • Each means 13 comprises a window 14, of general horizontal direction, associated with a slot 15 which extends obliquely towards the lower part of the support 12 from the window 14. According to the drawing, this obliquity is illustrated as making an angle a equal to 60 °.
  • each means 13 is provided to correspond to a right-handed user and, in this sense, the window 14 is provided near the left vertical side 16 of the support 12 while the slot 15 extends obliquely towards the lower right of said support.
  • the window 14 and the slot 15 completely pass through the thickness of the support 12, so that the latter can be used without any design modification for a left-handed user, after having been pivoted around the vertical side 16, so as to arrange the windows 14 near the right edge and to orient the slots 15 obliquely to the lower left part according to the direction of use.
  • Each window 14 is formed with removal of the material constituting the support 12 and, for this purpose, provision is made for delimiting the window by a substantially horizontal edge 17, by a first inclined edge 18 extending in the extension of the slot 15 and by a second inclined edge 19 joining the edge 18 to the end of the horizontal edge 17 opposite the slot 15.
  • Fig. 2 shows that each means 13 is made in the support 12 so as to have, between the extreme edge of the window 14 and the opposite end of the slot 15, a length L less than the horizontal measurement of the plug F.
  • Fig. 3 shows that the support 12 can be constituted by a double sheet or plate so as to comprise a filing face 12a and a back 12b hiding at this level the windows 14 and the slots 15.
  • the implementation of the plug according to fig. 1, in association with the file according to fig. 2, is carried out as illustrated in FIG. 4, in engagement the lower left corner of a form F in consideration of the direction of use, in the window 14 of the means 13 selected.
  • the engagement of the plug according to fig. 4 is followed by a displacement of the latter in the direction of the arrow f 1 , that is to say corresponding to a vertical displacement admit an oblique component directed to the right, so as to gradually engage the lower side 7 in the corresponding slot 15 at the same time as side 1 in the window 14.
  • the plug F is then subjected to a pivoting in the direction of the arrow f 3 on the point of articulation constituted by the overlapping of the incision 6 in the 'angle of the window 14, in order to complete the introduction of the plug into the slot 15 until the lower side 7 comes to bear on the lower end of said slot 15, as shown in FIG. 6.
  • the plug F is held in place horizontally while being locked in a stable position by means of the incision 6.
  • the incision 6 of the notch 2 is opposed to a relative displacement vertical rise of the F-plug and, by the pinch applied, also opposes a risk of relative lateral displacement to the right with respect to the support 12.
  • the F-plug has a range upper 20, corresponding to its entire horizontal length, kept visible with respect to the support 12, so that this range can be reserved for the recording or transcription of criteria for identifying information stored on the entire useful surface of the sheet F.
  • Fig. 7 shows that the measurement E provided between the successive superimposed means 13 makes it possible to occupy each of them by a sheet F without the result of total overlap of each of them, at least the area 20 of which is always visible. This makes it possible to have constant visual information of the identification criteria without compelling the user to move any of the files, except for possibly having access to the stored information, which then represents the processing phase of the file considered. which, for such a phase, is extracted from the support 12. This extraction phase is carried out by proceeding, inversely to what is described above, so as to release the locking effected by the notch 2 to allow extraction.
  • the means of the invention allow either the implementation of a file and a file by a right-handed or left-handed user, given that the above operations can be executed in a similar way after turning over the sheets F and the support 12.
  • Fig. 8 shows, on a larger scale, that the support 12 can be produced so as to cause each slot 15 to have a reverse inflection of the lips 21 and 22 delimiting it.
  • Such an inflection can be produced by local deformation of said lips, or can also result from the means used to execute the slit 15.
  • the inflections 21 and 22 have the advantage, as can be seen in FIG. 9, to subject each sheet F to a local pinching which contributes to establishing an effective hold against any risk of untimely displacement, in particular when the support 12 constitutes a portable element.
  • Fig. 10 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention according to which the plug F comprises, in its lower horizontal side 7 and near the lower corner opposite the side 1, a notch 8 delimited by an edge 10 parallel to the vertical side 9 and by an edge 11 which is inclined towards the edge 10 in the direction of the side 9.
  • the notch 8 is arranged so that the bottom of the edge 10 is located at a distance r from the bottom of the incision 6, which is at least equal to the radius R centered on the end of the window 14 of an opposite means 13 to the corresponding slot 15 and passing through the opposite end of said slot. Similarly, the inclination of the edge 11 is chosen so that the latter is set back from said radius R.
  • the notch 2 is provided in the left vertical side 1, while the notch 8 is formed near the right vertical side 9.
  • This corresponds to a given direction of use for a user who can be described as right-handed, as indicated previously.
  • the plug F described above can be turned over by pivoting on the vertical side 1, so that the latter is brought into the right place while the vertical side 9 occupies the left position.
  • Such an orientation would correspond to a use for a left-handed user as will be considered in the rest of this description.
  • Such an embodiment thus makes it possible to introduce a multidirectional locking of the plug relative to the support, that is to say, on the one hand, in downward movement by the edge 3 of the notch, on the other hand, in lateral movement to the left according to the drawing through the bottom of the incision and, moreover, in the direction of the arrow f 4 . It should also be noted that the incision 6 locks in upward movement of the plug F.
  • the depth of the notch 8 is provided to allow it to remain, with reference to the examples according to FIGS. 1 and 2, measure d so as to obtain the horizontality of a form F placed in the file S.
  • Fig. 12 shows an alternative embodiment in which the plug F has a notch 8a formed in the lower corner opposite the vertical side having the notch 2. Such an embodiment can be envisaged when the length of the plug, although greater, is close of length L.
  • Fig. 13 shows another alternative embodiment according to which it is planned to make the notch 8 have an incision 23 made along the straight line joining the bottom of the notch 8 to the bottom of the notch 2.
  • the incision 23 has a shorter length to that of the incision 6.
  • the pivoting allows the edge 11 1 to engage in the slot 15 until it rests on the bottom of the notch 8.
  • it suffices to subject the plug F to a lateral displacement in the direction of the arrow f 4 to obtain the overlapping of the end of the slot 15 by the lips of the incision 23.
  • the movable spoiler 24 then represents a lock positively opposing any risk of pivoting of the plug F in the opposite direction to that of the arrow f 3 even in the event of the file falling, for example.
  • the incision 23 can be provided even in the presence of the notch 8a.
  • Fig. 14 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the sheet F according to which it is intended to give it a symmetrical conformation with respect to a median vertical axis of symmetry A.
  • the symmetry of conformation is, of course, aimed at the notch 2 and the notch 8 which are then carried out identically.
  • Such a configuration allows a classification and a double-sided support of each sheet, as well as, of course, that use either for a right-handed or left-handed user.
  • Fig. 15 shows an alternative embodiment designed to offer a larger storage area than a simple F-sheet.
  • the sheet F 2 which can be qualified as a double sheet, is constituted by a sheet having in addition to the range 20, a vertical height equal to twice the useful height of a sheet F between the edge 3 and the lower side 7.
  • the sheet F 2 has a fold line 25 which is marked parallel to the horizontal side 4 2 , so as to correspond to a materialization of the lower horizontal side 7 of the sheet F.
  • the sheet F 2 has , in the lower corner between the side 1 2 and the lower horizontal side 7 2 , a cutout 26 corresponding to the surface of the notch 2 2 .
  • the sheet F 2 has, in alignment with the notch 8 2 and on either side of the fold line 25, a light 27 having a shape and a surface equal to two notches 8 opposite or joined by their bases fictitious.
  • the sheet F 2 above is thus divided by the fold line 25 into two flaps V 1 and V 2 which can be used as a useful front and back storage area.
  • the fold line 25 Prior to the installation, for the purpose of classifying such an F 2 sheet, it suffices to mark the fold line 25, so as to fold down the flap V 2 on the back of the flap V 1 , so that the light 27 is then transformed into a notch 8 and that the cutout 26 fits exactly into the inclined edge of the notch 2 2 .
  • the sheet F 2 can thus be inserted into a holding means 13 as said previously with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6.
  • Fig. 16 illustrates an alternative embodiment in which the sheet F 3 has a surface making it possible to delimit, by means of two parallel fold lines 28 and 29, three flaps V 1 , V 2 , Va of identical surface, the flap V, being extended by the upper area 20.
  • the light 27 is provided at the fold line 24 separating the flap V 1 from the flap V 2 and on either side of the fold line 29, from the vertical edge 1 3 , a notch 30 is provided having a shape and a surface corresponding to two notches 2 opposite by the edge 3.
  • the file F 3 has a capacity for triple storage of the file F and can nevertheless be inserted into a means 13 for holding a file S by providing for forming the fold lines 28 and 29 so as to successively fold the flaps V 3 and V 2 behind the shutter V 1 .
  • the light 27 turns into a notch 8 while the notch 30 fits exactly in the contour of the notch 2 3 to allow, as described above, the setting place and lock in a window 14 and a slot 15.
  • FIGS. 15 and 16 can be made symmetrically with respect to a vertical median line of symmetry A, as said with reference to FIG. 14.
  • the sheet and the file according to the invention are of particularly rapid, practical and easy use, since the maneuvers of installation and removal can be carried out quickly with safety.
  • each inserted plug is kept immobilized in a stable position, so that no untimely relative sliding is to be feared.
  • the files and the file can be provided for use at a fixed or mobile station, being produced, in such a case, so as to be able to be easily transported, i.e., for example, in a standardized format such as A 4 '
  • the F files according to the present invention offer a significant storage capacity and can be combined at the end of use in a file that they concern or, possibly, be placed, when they are in the waiting phase, in a vertical file. the type of timetable from which they are then easily extracted when they are reactivated.
  • a plug F 4 In order to carry out the temporary storage of cards, it can be provided as illustrated in FIG. 17, to have a plug F 4 have a pocket 31 in which plugs F can be arranged.
  • the plug F is preferably made to have a mechanical resistance greater than that of the use plugs and, for example, it can be planned to constitute it from a sheet of rigid cardboard. In all cases, the sheet F 4 has the notch 2 and the notch 8.
  • the F 4 sheet has the particularity of having an upper range 20 whose height is equal to twice the measurement e of a use sheet F .
