Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folder for storing documents or the like.
  • hanging files to accommodate files or unpunched documents. These contain a front and a rear sheet from a blank, which are connected to one another either in the area of the upper edge or in the area of the lower edge. They are suspended between two horizontally spaced rails.
  • the known hanging files contain continuous metal rails, at the ends of which hooks are formed. Attaching the blanks to these rails is complex. In hanging files, both ends of the blank must be wrapped around one rail each and glued or riveted. In some cases, the pockets for inserting the rails are formed beforehand and the rails are inserted laterally.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a portfolio that is simple and can be produced with little effort.
  • the invention proposes a folder with the features of claim 1.
  • the invention advantageously proposes corrugated cardboard, for example, a material that can be produced and produced from reusable materials.
  • corrugated cardboard of various dimensions, including those that are relatively thin, so that it can be used for folders.
  • Such a folder has the advantage that it is inherently relatively stiff so that it can protect the material to be accommodated.
  • the insert parts can be hook elements which lead to the folder then being designed as a hanging folder and being able to be hung on the hook elements.
  • the insert parts can also be designed in such a way that they enable the front cover and the rear cover to be fixed to one another, for example with the aid of an elastic band.
  • the insert part can have a hole through which a rubber band can be inserted and fixed. It is also conceivable to design an insert part so that it fixes the other cover with projections, clips or also foldable parts. What is explained below for the hook elements applies in the same way to the other insert parts.
  • the hook elements are provided as one piece for each side. It can be inserted very easily, and after inserting the hanging file is ready. No additional work steps are required.
  • the hooks to be inserted can be inserted in the spaces provided between the webs. However, they can also be inserted anywhere along the side of the blank so that an end user can also change and convert their hanging file.
  • the hanging folders can be designed both as hanging pockets, ie with a connection of the two sheets of the blank on the underside, and as hanging files, the front and back sheets being connected to one another in the area of the top. It is even possible to use the same cut for both options. By moving the hook elements, this can even be done subsequently.
  • the invention proposes that the insert parts are injection molded in one piece from plastic.
  • the insert parts in particular the hook elements, which is inserted into the plug material. If the length is sufficient, this can be sufficient. However, it is particularly favorable if they have two or more such pins. Then the load can be distributed over several webs or spaces between webs.
  • the lowest pin of the insert is the longest.
  • all pegs have different lengths, which can facilitate insertion.
  • the individual pegs are at a distance which is at least so large that two adjacent pegs are not inserted into adjacent spaces between two webs.
  • the distance between the individual pins is different in the case of more than two pins.
  • the invention proposes that the thickness of the pin is smaller than the thickness of the insert part located outside the plug material. When inserting the insert, it then lies against the hanging file on a larger surface, which has a positive effect on the durability and the appearance of the hanging file even after prolonged use.
  • the invention also proposes a hook element for hanging the hanging folders described, an insert for the folders not to be hung, and the use of these elements for attachment to hanging folders or other folders.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a blank for forming a hanging file, which has a front sheet 1 and a back sheet 3 connected to it via a base 2.
  • the blank is folded so that front sheet 1 and back sheet 3 are substantially parallel to each other. In the area of the upper ends of the front sheet and the rear sheet, these each contain a recess 4 on the side, in which the width of the hanging file is thus somewhat narrower.
  • the hook elements are later inserted into these recesses.
  • the corrugated cardboard being oriented such that the webs run parallel to the creases 5 between front sheet 1 and bottom 2 or bottom 2 and back sheet 3, that is to say in other words, parallel to the direction between the two longitudinal rails between which the suspension files are to be inserted.
  • the material of the hanging file is thus open at the side end edges 6, as shown in FIG. 3, for example.
  • a folding of the blank, as shown in FIG. 1, is usually referred to as a hanging file, but the invention would like to have the expression understood in a broader sense. If the front edges 6 of the front sheet 1 and back sheet 3 or the like by paper strips. are interconnected, such a blank is often referred to as a hanging bag.
  • top and bottom of the blank are interchanged so that the front sheet 1 and the back sheet 3 are connected to one another in the area of the upper side, such devices are referred to as hanging files. It is, of course, possible with the blank shown in Fig. 1 to turn it over and the hook elements still to be described then in the area of the upper side, i.e. So the previous floor 2 to attach.
  • FIG. 2 shows how individual channel-like spaces 8 are formed between the webs 7 of the corrugated cardboard.
  • a hook element 9 is inserted on each end face of the blank in the area of the upper edge thereof.
  • the hook element 9 contains a downwardly open, essentially U-shaped hook 10 which is arranged outside the blank and can be placed on a rail.
  • the hook element On the side facing the front edge 6 of the blank, the hook element contains three pins 11 which run parallel to one another and all have different lengths. The distance between the pins 11 is such that each pin 11 can be inserted into a space 8 between two adjacent webs 7. Since the material of the corrugated cardboard can deform somewhat and the pins 11 of the hook element 9, which is preferably injection molded from plastic, can give way, exact coordination between the distance between the pins 11 and the corrugated cardboard is not necessary.
  • the distance between the two upper pins is selected so that they engage in spaces 8, between which a further space 8 between two webs 7 is arranged.
  • the bottom of the upper pin does not rest on the same web 7 as the top of the middle pin.
  • the distance between the middle and the lower pin 11 is chosen to be even larger, so that there are a total of three webs 7 or two spaces 8 between them.
  • FIG. 3 shows, as already mentioned, a view of the end face 6 of a blank, from which it follows that in the case of the corrugated cardboard there are a large number of interspaces 8 separated by webs 7.
  • the individual gaps 8 can deform due to the web material, so that the pins 11 of the hook element 9 need not be adapted to a special shape.
  • FIG. 4 shows the hook element 9 in an enlarged section compared to FIG. 2.
  • the pins 11 have a thickness that is smaller than the thickness of the hook element 9. They are also arranged centrally with respect to the hook element 9. This forms an edge on both sides of the pin 11, so that when the hook element 9 is inserted into the end face 6 of the suspension file, the material can rest against the end face along a relatively large area, not only in the area between the pin 11, but also at the edge.
  • the hanging file according to the invention is produced in that the hook elements 9 are injection molded as a bulk plastic article.
  • the hanging folder blanks are then punched out of corrugated cardboard or a plastic material, and they can already receive the recesses 4 and the chamfering of the upper corners during the punching.
  • the blanks are folded and brought into the form shown in FIG. 1.
  • Four hook elements 9 are then pushed into the end faces 6 as far as possible in the region of the recesses.
  • the hanging file is now finished.
  • the back sheet 3 is formed higher, so that there is an upper surface that can be used for labeling. You can of course also with colored stickers for easier orientation be provided. It is also possible to inject the hook elements 9 from colored plastic as an organizational aid.
  • the upwardly projecting edge area 12 of the rear sheet 3 can be bent or folded slightly backwards in order to facilitate the overview.
  • hook elements 9 can also insert the hook elements 9 at other points, for example somewhat higher or somewhat lower. This can be seen in FIG. 2.
  • this hanging file is also still possible for the end user to use this hanging file as a hanging file by pulling out the hook elements 9 in the area of the top, turning the blank over so that the bottom 2 is at the top, and the hook elements 9 now vice versa on the new top.
  • a tacking strip for filing perforated material can be arranged on the front sheet 1 or on the back sheet 3 on the top or bottom.
  • FIG. 5 shows a representation of a folder similar to FIG. 1, which is usually referred to as an elastic folder.
  • front sheet 1 and rear sheet 3 have the same height. They are produced and folded in the same way as in the embodiment in FIG. 1, so that this is not repeated again.
  • insert parts 15 are inserted in side recesses 14.
  • the cutouts 14 are shaped such that the insert parts 15 run essentially flush with the material of the front sheet 1 and rear sheet 3.
  • the insert parts 15 are inserted on both end faces of both the front sheet 1 and the rear sheet 3. They are all identical.
  • Each insert part 15 contains a hole 16, the axis of which extends perpendicular to the plane of the leaves.
  • a rubber band 17 is shown in broken lines in FIG.
  • the elastic band is used 17 out over the upper edge of the front sheet 1.
  • the attachment to the insert parts 15 of the rear sheet 3 can be done, for example, by inserting the elastic band through the holes 16 and knotting it on the other side.
  • the elastic band it is also possible for the elastic band to go all around the folder.
  • the insert parts 15 serve to fasten the elastic band, while on the other sheet they serve to guide the elastic band or to prevent damage to the material of the folder by forming a bearing surface for the elastic band.
  • FIG. 6 shows on an enlarged scale the arrangement of the insert 15 in the elastic folder of FIG. 5.
  • the insertion takes place in the same way as was shown with reference to FIG. 2.
  • the insert part 15 thus again has pins 11, in this case two pins which have different lengths and engage in the spaces 8 between the webs 7.
  • the two pins are on the front, i.e. the outside of the folder, connected to one another by a web 18, which lies in the recess 14.
  • the hole 16 already mentioned is formed in a thickening approximately in the middle of the web.
  • the web 18 has short, outwardly directed projections 19 in the region of its two ends, which are in an extension of the pins 11. This forms a depression which serves to guide the elastic band 17 on the insert parts 15, in which the elastic band is not passed through the hole 16.
