Definitions

  • This invention relates to binders and more particularly to binders of the type adapted to receive a plurality of sheets which are secured in the binder in a condition to be individually viewed by fasteners, particularly staples.
  • binders also usually provide front and rear covers for the sheets.
  • a binder which preferably includes a front cover, a rear cover, front and rear fastener covering sections hinged to the front and rear covers respectively along first fold lines and front and rear fastener receiving sections hinged to the front and rear fastener covering sections respectively along second fold lines.
  • Each of the fastener receiving sections has an outer surface and an opposed inner surface against which a margin of the sheets is retained by fastener means preferably in the form of a staple or staples extending through the margin of the sheets and the staple receiving sections with the fastener being secured against the outer surfaces of the fastener receiving sections.
  • Each of the fastener covering sections is operable to be hinged with respect to the associated fastener receiving sections between a fastener attaching position extending away from the outer surface of the associated fastener receiving section so as to permit the securement of the fastener or staple as aforesaid and a fastener covering position wherein an inner surface thereof is disposed in abutting relation to the outer surface of the associated fastener receiving section.
  • a conveniently activatable adhesive means preferably a coating of pressure-sensitive adhesive having a detachable masking strip initially covering the same, is operable between the inner surface of each fastener covering section and the outer surface of the associated fastener receiving section after- the fastener or staple has been secured through the fastener receiving sections with the fastener covering sections in their fastener attaching positions as aforesaid, and the fastener covering sections have been moved into their fastener covering positions for adhesively retaining the fastener covering sections in their fastener covering positions.
  • the covers and sections of the binder are formed integrally from one sheet of material with the front and rear fastener receiving sections being hingedly interconnected along a common fold line which is parallel to the fold lines associated with the fastener covering sections.
  • Another object of the present invention is the provision of an assembly embodying a binder of the type described in cooperative relation with a plurality of sheets and a staple which is simple in construction, economical to manufacture and effective in operation.
  • FIG. 1 a binder embodying the principles of the present invention which consists essentially of front and rear covers 1 and 2 joined by a back 3.
  • the entire binder has been cut from one sheet of material or blank.
  • a longitudinal fold 4 defining two staple receiving sections is formed in the back 3 by a rear fold line 5 extending throughout the central portion thereof.
  • the documents or plurality of sheets 19 which are to be retained in the binder are inserted into the fold 4 so that the front and rear sheets abut the inside surfaces of the staple receiving section of the fold along their marginal edge portions.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates in dotted lines the ideal positions 16, 17 and 18 for the staples.
  • each staple 20 engages the opposite outer surface of the forward staple receiving section defined by the fold 4 while the opposite outer surface of the rear staple receiving section of the fold 4 has the free ends of the legs of the staples clinched into engagement therewith.
  • the binder also includes front and rear staple covering sections 12 and 13 respectively which must be hinged or folded back onto the corresponding sections of the fold 4.
  • the front and rear staple covering sections in addition to being hinged to the respectively front and rear staple receiving sections of the fold 4, are also hinged to the front and rear covers 1 and 2 respectively.
  • fold lines 6 and 7 define parallel edges of the front staple covering section 12 and serve to hinge the section 12 to the associated section of the fold 4 and the front cover 1, respectively.
  • fold lines 8 and 9 define parallel edges of the rear staple covering section 13 and serve to hinge the section 13 to the associated section of the fold 4 and rear cover 2 respectively.
  • the hinging action provided by the fold lines enables the staple covering sections to be moved between staple attaching positions shown in Figure 2.
  • the inner surfaces of the staple covering sections 12 and 13 have a pressure-sensitive adhesive coating 10 and 11 respectively applied thereto.
  • the exposed surfaces of the adhesive coatings 10 and 11 are protected by detachable masking foils or strips 15 and 16 respectively.
  • the assembly is completed by first removing the masking foils 14 and 15 exposing the pressure-sensitive adhesive coatings 10 and 11.
  • the staple covering sections 12 and-13 are then hinged or folded back along fold lines 6 and 8 into their staple covering positions wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive coatings on the inner surface thereof engage the abutting outer surface of the staple receiving sections of the fold 4 so as to effect an adhesive securement of the surfaces in abutting relation and to firmly retain the staple covering sections in covering relation to the associated exposed portions of the staples engaged with the inner surfaces of the staple receiving sections of fold 4.
  • the binder is normally sold folded solely along fold line 5.
  • Sections 12 and 13 are hinged along their fold lines 6, 7, 8 and 9 just prior or subsequent to the stapling of the papers to the fold 4, as shown in Figure 2, by hinging or folding the same along the fold lines 6, 7, 8 and 9.
