Description

La présente invention concerne un article en carton, cuir, matière plastique ou analogues, du genre classeur, reliure, pochette, porte-documents et analogues, destiné à contenir et/ou réunir des feuillets individuels ou en fascicule, ou tous documents en feuilles ou en livrets, cet article comportant la particularité d'offrir un espace d'appoint indépendant et amovible, présentant des moyens de fermeture intégrés.The present invention relates to an article of cardboard, leather, plastic material or the like, of the sorting file, binding, pocket, document holder and the like, intended to contain and / or collect individual sheets or in booklet, or all documents in sheets or in booklets, this article comprising the particularity of offering an independent and removable additional space, having integrated closing means.

Il existe à ce jour d'innombrables articles du genre considéré, réalisés en carton, cuir, matière plastique et analogues, destinés à recevoir l'ensemble des éléments en feuilles constituant un ouvrage d'ensemble, cet ensemble pouvant être complété et/ou modifié par adjonction ou échange de tels éléments grâce au système de maintien ou de retenue amovible de ces éléments.To date, there are innumerable articles of the type under consideration, made of cardboard, leather, plastic and the like, intended to receive all of the elements in sheets constituting an overall work, this assembly being able to be completed and / or modified. by adding or exchanging such elements using the detachable or retaining system for these elements.

Ces articles se composant essentiellement d'un couple de panneaux plus ou moins rigides, réunis par un dos sur l'intérieur duquel sont montés éventuellement les systèmes de retenue ou de maintien, par exemple des anneaux sécables.These articles consisting essentially of a couple of more or less rigid panels, joined by a back on the interior of which are optionally mounted the retaining or holding systems, for example breakable rings.

Il est également connu de prévoir, sur au moins une face intérieure de ces panneaux, des espaces en forme de pochette s'ouvrant vers le haut ou vers le dos de l'article, et destinés à recevoir des documents complémentaires, par exemple ne participant pas directement à l'ouvrage principal contenu dans la reliure.It is also known to provide, on at least one inner face of these panels, spaces in the form of a pocket opening towards the top or towards the back of the article, and intended to receive additional documents, for example not participating not directly to the main work contained in the binding.

Or de tels espaces, étant ouverts, risquent de laisser échapper leur contenu à l'occasion de la manipulation de l'article pour la consultation de l'ouvrage ou l'échange des feuillets. Bien entendu, il est possible de les clore, par exemple par une languette équipée d'un bouton-pression et fixée par rivetage ou soudure, ou collage à la couverture, mais un tel système est peu esthétique et ajoute au prix de revient de l'article. Au surplus, un tel aménagement se limite généralement à des pochettes minces qui ne sauraient recevoir un ou plusieurs documents relativement épais, ou d'autres objets utiles.However, such spaces, being open, risk leaking their content during the manipulation of the article for the consultation of the work or the exchange of sheets. Of course, it is possible to close them, for example by a tab fitted with a press stud and fixed by riveting or welding, or gluing to the cover, but such a system is unattractive and adds to the cost price of the 'article. In addition, such an arrangement is generally limited to thin pockets which cannot receive one or more relatively thick documents, or other useful objects.

La présente invention vise un perfectionnement à des articles de ce genre comportant un tel aménagement, et concerne plus spécialement un article de ce genre dans lequel est ménagé un espace pouvant être relativement épais, créé par un élément indépendant de l'article lui-même, amovible et comportant un rabat assurant sa propre fermeture.The present invention relates to an improvement to articles of this kind comprising such an arrangement, and more particularly relates to an article of this kind in which a space which can be relatively thick is created, created by an element independent of the article itself, removable and with a flap ensuring its own closure.

On a décrit au US-A-2,048,980 l'association d'un classeur à feuillets mobiles réunis par des anneaux avec un volume amovible destiné à servir de plumier. A cet effet, le fond du plumier est prolongé par une bande comportant des perforations semblables à celles des feuillets, de manière à insérer dans les anneaux cette bande par dessus les feuillets.US-A-2,048,980 has described the association of a loose-leaf binder joined by rings with a removable volume intended to serve as a pen tray. To this end, the bottom of the pen tray is extended by a strip having perforations similar to those of the sheets, so as to insert this strip into the rings over the sheets.

On a également décrit au DE-U-89 02 001.4 une reliure à anneaux pour feuillets mobiles présentant la particularité que les couvertures de cette reliure sont creuses, de sorte qu'il est possible d'y loger à volonté divers documents séparément desdits feuillets mobiles.DE-U-89 02 001.4 has also described a ring binder for loose sheets having the particularity that the covers of this binder are hollow, so that it is possible to accommodate at will various documents separately from said loose sheets .

Enfin on a décrit au EP-A-0375925 une mallette constituée par deux demi couvercles aménagés chacun pour recevoir un plateau contenant des cassettes ou des diapositives, chaque demi couvercle comportant des tenons venant se loger par glissement dans des mortaises pratiquées sur les parois du plateau, en vue du positionnement dudit plateau.Finally, in EP-A-0375925, a case has been described consisting of two half-covers each arranged to receive a tray containing cassettes or slides, each half-cover comprising tenons which are housed by sliding in mortises made on the walls of the tray. , for the positioning of said plate.

La présente invention vise un article de ce genre dans lequel ledit article et ledit élément amovible comportent des moyens de solidarisation ayant pour effet de verrouiller des pans dudit article avec des pans dudit élément amovible, quand ledit élément amovible est en position emboîtée dans ledit article.The present invention relates to an article of this kind in which said article and said removable element comprise fastening means having the effect of locking sections of said article with sections of said element removable, when said removable element is in the nested position in said article.

Ce perfectionnement est obtenu par un article avec un élément amovible, ayant les caractéristiques de la revendication 1.This improvement is obtained by an article with a removable element, having the characteristics of claim 1.

Un mode de réalisation préférentiel de l'invention est donné par les sousrevendications.A preferred embodiment of the invention is given by the claims.

C'est cette réalisation qui est représentée au dessin annexé sur lequel :

  • la figure 1A est une vue perspective de l'article seul, à l'état déployé,
  • la figure 1B est une vue perspective de l'élément amovible seul, également à l'état déployé,
  • et la figure 2 est une coupe verticale de l'article et de l'élément amovible à l'état emboîté l'un dans l'autre.
It is this embodiment which is represented in the appended drawing in which:
  • FIG. 1A is a perspective view of the article alone, in the deployed state,
  • FIG. 1B is a perspective view of the removable element alone, also in the deployed state,
  • and FIG. 2 is a vertical section of the article and of the removable element in the nested state one inside the other.

Sur ce dessin, on voit, sur la figure 1A, que l'article selon l'invention est une reliure usuelle à anneaux, se composant d'un premier panneau ou couverture 1 et d'un second panneau ou couverture 2, réunies par un dos 3 sur lequel sont montés les anneaux de reliure 4.In this drawing, it can be seen in FIG. 1A that the article according to the invention is a usual ring binder, consisting of a first panel or cover 1 and a second panel or cover 2, joined by a back 3 on which the binding rings 4 are mounted.

Selon l'invention, la couverture 1 est prolongée sur ses trois côtés libres par des pans 5, 6 et 7 repliés chacun deux fois à angle droit vers l'intérieur suivant des lignes de plage 5a - 5b, 6a - 6b et 7a - 7b. Les lignes de pliage 5b et 6b présentent des fentes respectives 8 et 9 tandis que le pan ou rabat 7 présente des pattes 10 et 11 venant s'insérer dans les fentes 8 et 9 quand l'article est fermé (Figure 2).According to the invention, the cover 1 is extended on its three free sides by sections 5, 6 and 7 each folded twice at right angles inward along the lines of the lines 5a - 5b, 6a - 6b and 7a - 7b . The fold lines 5b and 6b have respective slots 8 and 9 while the flap or flap 7 has tabs 10 and 11 which are inserted into the slots 8 and 9 when the article is closed (Figure 2).

Selon l'invention également, l'élément amovible est un panneau rectangulaire 12 (figure 1B) ayant sensiblement les mêmes dimensions que la couverture 1 et présentant sur trois de ses côtés des pans rectangulaires 13, 14 et 15 repliés chacun deux fois à angle droit vers l'intérieur suivant des lignes de plage 13a - 13b, 14a - 14b, 15a - 15b. Les lignes de plage 13b et 14b présentent des fentes 16, 17, et l'ensemble des formes et dimensions des pans (13-15) et des fentes (16, 17) de l'élément amovible correspond aux formes et dimensions des pans (5-7), des fentes (8, 9) et des pattes (10, 11) de l'article représenté à la figure 1A.According to the invention also, the removable element is a rectangular panel 12 (FIG. 1B) having substantially the same dimensions as the cover 1 and having on three of its sides rectangular panels 13, 14 and 15 each folded twice at right angles inward along beach lines 13a - 13b, 14a - 14b, 15a - 15b. The range lines 13b and 14b have slots 16, 17, and all of the shapes and dimensions of the panels (13-15) and of the slots (16, 17) of the removable element correspond to the shapes and dimensions of the panels ( 5-7), slots (8, 9) and tabs (10, 11) of the article shown in Figure 1A.

Il en résulte que, comme représenté à la figure 2, quand on insère l'élément amovible dans l'article, les pans repliés 5 et 6 jouant le rôle de glissières dans lesquelles viennent coulisser les pans 13 et 14, les fentes 16 et 17 sont superposées aux fentes 8 et 9, et les pattes 10 et 11 viennent bloquer simultanément en place les pans 5, 6, 13 et 14, et par suite l'élément amovible dans l'article.As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, when the removable element is inserted into the article, the folded sides 5 and 6 playing the role of slides in which the sides 13 and 14 slide, the slots 16 and 17 are superimposed on the slots 8 and 9, and the legs 10 and 11 block simultaneously in place the sides 5, 6, 13 and 14, and consequently the removable element in the article.

Dans cette position (figure 2), le pan ou couvercle 15 est levé et l'élément amovible coopère avec l'article pour créer un porte-documents solidarisé avec la reliure, et qui peut donc recevoir des documents supplémentaires. Pour éviter la perte de ces documents, on peut abaisser le pan 15, en le rabattant suivant la flèche F sur le rabat 7, sur lequel on peut l'immobiliser par tout moyen convenable, par exemple un couple de boutons-pression 18a - 18b.In this position (Figure 2), the pan or cover 15 is raised and the removable element cooperates with the article to create a document holder secured to the binding, and which can therefore receive additional documents. To avoid the loss of these documents, the pan 15 can be lowered, by folding it down according to the arrow F on the flap 7, on which it can be immobilized by any suitable means, for example a pair of snaps 18a - 18b .

Bien entendu, la description qui précède n'est qu'un exemple illustratif d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention, appliquée à une reliure à anneaux, mais il est bien entendu que cet exemple n'a aucun caractère limitatif et que l'invention englobe tous les articles pouvant servir de moyen de réunion ou de transport de documents, quels que soient leur matériau et leurs dimensions, à savoir par exemple porte-documents, cartons à dessin et analogues, tandis que l'espace d'appoint créé par l'élément amovible peut recevoir non seulement des documents, mais aussi tous objets utiles, tels que crayons, instruments divers, etc. ...Of course, the above description is only an illustrative example of an embodiment of the invention, applied to a ring binder, but it is understood that this example has no limiting character and that the The invention encompasses all articles which can serve as a means of gathering or transporting documents, whatever their material and their dimensions, namely for example briefcases, drawing boards and the like, while the additional space created by the removable element can receive not only documents, but also all useful objects, such as pencils, various instruments, etc. ...
