Abstract

The mechanism is made from a fastening strip (1), rings (2) and screws (3), all moulded together in one piece from a plastics material. When required for use, the screws are separated from the strip and fitted through holes (17) in the strip and into prepared holes in the cover of the binder. They are tightened with the aid of a coin in the screw head slots. The rings are also detached from the strip and fitted by shaped lugs (5) engaging with matching recesses (8) in the strip so that they lie perpendicular to it. The tips of the rings' open ends are shaped to engage when pushed together and release when pulled apart. The mechanism can be re-used with a new binder cover when the old one has to be discarded.

Description

La présente invention a pour but de réaliser un dispositif de fermeture perfectionné comparativement à celui décrit dans la demande de brevet européen n° 96.106283.3 déposée par le même demandeur en date du 22.4.1996.The object of the present invention is to provide an improved closure device compared to that described in European patent application No. 96.106283.3 filed by the same applicant on April 22, 1996.

Dans la demande de brevet citée, on avait décrit un mécanisme à anneaux plats détachables pour conteneurs de feuilles mobiles, comprenant une bande-support destinée à être fixée au moyen de rivets sur l'un des plats de la reliure, ainsi qu'une série d'anneaux mobiles destinés à être fixés à la bande pour permettre de retenir les documents qu'il s'agit de conserver dans la reliure, étant noté que chacun des anneaux mobiles est muni d'ailettes qui émergent du segment rectiligne dont l'anneau est muni, et peut être accroché élastiquement aux saillies qui émergent à l'intérieur de la cavité pratiquée sur les flancs de la bande-support pour retenir les anneaux sur la reliure lorsque celle-ci n'est pas utilisée.In the cited patent application, there was described a mechanism with detachable flat rings for loose leaf containers, comprising a support strip intended to be fixed by means of rivets on one of the plates of the binding, as well as a series movable rings intended to be fixed to the strip to enable the documents to be retained in the binding to be retained, it being noted that each of the movable rings is provided with fins which emerge from the rectilinear segment, the ring of which is provided, and can be hooked elastically to the projections which emerge inside the cavity formed on the sides of the support strip to retain the rings on the binding when the latter is not in use.

Dans ce mécanisme il était prévu qu'une extrémité ouverte de l'anneau était munie de saillies qui s'accrochent à l'extrémité opposée de l'anneau, cependant qu'une entaille ménagée à l'intérieur de la dent rend la saillie élastique pour permettre de l'introduire dans la cavité en autorisant son élargissement à l'intérieur de celle-ci après que l'anneau a été fermé.In this mechanism, it was provided that an open end of the ring was provided with projections which catch on the opposite end of the ring, while a notch made inside the tooth makes the projection elastic. to allow it to be introduced into the cavity, authorizing its enlargement inside the latter after the ring has been closed.

La présente invention a pour objet le dispositif de fermeture qui est défini à la revendication 1.The present invention relates to the closure device which is defined in claim 1.

En fait, selon l'invention on prévoit que la bande de base du dispositif est fixée à l'intérieur d'une des faces de la reliure, au moyen de vis, en remplacement de rivets, par l'utilisateur lui-même, lequel détache les vis en matière plastique de la bande de base pour les visser dans des trous filetés ménagés dans la face intérieure de la reliure, à l'aide d'une simple pièce de monnaie propre à agir sur la tête de la vis accessible de l'extérieur.In fact, according to the invention it is provided that the base band of the device is fixed inside one of the faces of the binding, by means of screws, replacing rivets, by the user himself, who loosen the screws in material plastic of the base band to screw them into threaded holes made in the inside of the binding, using a simple coin capable of acting on the head of the screw accessible from the outside.

En outre, sur la bande, il n'y a pas de cavités latérales, du fait que les anneaux et les vis sont obtenus avec une unique opération de moulage de la matière plastique, conjointement avec la bande de base. On prévoit en outre la possibilité pour l'utilisateur de récupérer le mécanisme de fermeture lorsqu'on met la reliure au rebut, par exemple pour l'envoyer à la décharge, tandis que le mécanisme est réutilisé avec de nouvelles reliures, qui sont naturellement munies de trous traversants dans les positions appropriées.In addition, on the strip, there are no lateral cavities, since the rings and the screws are obtained with a single plastic molding operation, together with the base strip. Provision is also made for the user to recover the closing mechanism when the binding is discarded, for example to send it to the landfill, while the mechanism is reused with new binders, which are naturally provided through holes in the appropriate positions.

L'invention sera maintenant décrite ci-après de façon plus détaillée à l'aide du dessin annexé sur lequel :

  • la figure 1 est une vue d'ensemble de la bande avec les anneaux et les vis formés par une unique opération de moulage.
  • La figure 2 représente le détail relatif aux extrémités d'un anneau de fermeture en position ouverte.
  • La figure 3 représente la bande vue du côté arrière.
  • La figure 4 est une coupe transversale de la bande de base muni d'un mécanisme d'accrochage.
The invention will now be described below in more detail with the aid of the attached drawing in which:
  • Figure 1 is an overview of the strip with the rings and screws formed by a single molding operation.
  • FIG. 2 shows the detail relating to the ends of a closure ring in the open position.
  • Figure 3 shows the strip seen from the rear side.
  • Figure 4 is a cross section of the base strip provided with a hooking mechanism.

Comme on peut le remarquer sur la figure 1, les anneaux 2, évidemment en position ouverte, ainsi que les vis 3 nécessaires à la fixation de la bande 1 contre la paroi intérieure d'une des faces de la reliure, sont solidaires de la bande de base 1 du fait que ces éléments sont venus de moulage.As can be seen in Figure 1, the rings 2, obviously in the open position, as well as the screws 3 necessary for fixing the strip 1 against the inner wall of one of the faces of the binding, are integral with the strip basic 1 from the fact that these came from molding.

Naturellement, sur la bande 1 sont ménagées des rainures 4 dans lesquelles on peut voir que les ailettes 5, qui font saillie sur la base de l'anneau 2 avec une dent 6 en saillie vers l'extérieur, s'accrochent aux ouvertures 8 formées sur la bande 1, au moment du montage, en restant toujours accrochées à la bande de base 1 dans cette position, aussi bien avant qu'après l'opération de fermeture de l'anneau, exactement de la même façon qu'on l'a décrit dans le brevet européen cité plus haut.Naturally, on the strip 1 are formed grooves 4 in which it can be seen that the fins 5, which protrude on the base of the ring 2 with a tooth 6 projecting outwards, hang on the openings 8 formed on the strip 1, at the time of assembly, always remaining attached to the base strip 1 in this position, both before and after the operation of closing the ring, in exactly the same way as it is described in the European patent cited above.

Sur la base de l'anneau 2, se projette une saillie 12, avantageusement disposée dans une position asymétrique par rapport aux deux ailettes 5, saillie qui pénètre à l'intérieur d'un trou approprié 14, formé sur la base 1, afin d'éviter qu'on insère l'anneau 2 dans la base dans une position inversée.On the base of the ring 2, a projection 12 projects, advantageously disposed in an asymmetrical position relative to the two fins 5, projection which penetrates inside a suitable hole 14, formed on the base 1, in order to d '' avoid inserting the ring 2 in the base in an inverted position.

Sur la base 1 font saillie des éléments de retenue 13, eux aussi détachables, qui comprennent deux ailettes latérales 15 surbaissées et une ailette centrale 16 soulevée, qui permettent de fixer l'ensemble du mécanisme à la reliure, dans la phase de commercialisation de l'objet.On the base 1 protruding retaining elements 13, also detachable, which include two side fins 15 lowered and a central fin 16 raised, which allow to fix the whole mechanism to the binding, in the marketing phase of the 'object.

En pratique, étant donné que les reliures peuvent être vendues sans emballage, les éléments de retenue 13 ne permettent pas de détacher la base 1 de la reliure.In practice, since the binders can be sold without packaging, the retaining elements 13 do not allow the base 1 to be detached from the binding.

L'opération de fermeture de l'anneau 2 est exécutée par insertion de la saillie tronconique 9 (figure 2) dans la cavité 10, insertion qui est obtenue facilement grâce à l'élasticité de la matière formant la saillie, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prévoir des entailles particulières semblables à celles montrées, comme dans la demande de brevet citée précédemment.The closing operation of the ring 2 is carried out by insertion of the frustoconical projection 9 (FIG. 2) into the cavity 10, insertion which is easily obtained thanks to the elasticity of the material forming the projection, without it being necessary to provide special notches similar to those shown, as in the patent application cited above.

Sur la figure 3, sur laquelle on voit clairement la face de la bande 1, qui vient s'appuyer contre la reliure, on remarquera l'existence de trous borgnes filetés 17 dans lesquels se vissent les vis 3 qui passent à travers des trous pratiqués dans la reliure, pour fixer la bande à celle-ci de façon permanente.In FIG. 3, on which we clearly see the face of the strip 1, which comes to bear against the binding, we will notice the existence of threaded blind holes 17 in which the screws 3 are screwed which pass through holes made in the binding, to fix the band to it permanently.

Les vis 3 et les anneaux 2 sont fixés à la bande 1 au moment de la livraison de l'ensemble à l'utilisateur et peuvent être facilement détachés par celui-ci avant l'utilisation.The screws 3 and the rings 2 are fixed to the strip 1 at the time of delivery of the assembly to the user and can be easily detached by the latter before use.

Sur la figure 4, on voit mieux comment, effectivement, les ailettes 5, munies des dents 6, qui font saillie vers l'extérieur, s'accrochent aux ouvertures 8 ménagées dans la bande 1.In FIG. 4, it is better to see how, in fact, the fins 5, provided with the teeth 6, which project outwards, hook onto the openings 8 formed in the strip 1.

On peut voir par ailleurs, sur la même figure 4, la saillie 12, disposée dans une position asymétrique, qui pénètre dans le trou 14, avec les avantages décrits précédemment.We can also see, in the same figure 4, the projection 12, arranged in an asymmetrical position, which enters the hole 14, with the advantages described above.

Naturellement, comme on l'a déjà dit, l'ensemble du dispositif de fermeture peut être réutilisé lorsque la reliure doit être envoyée au rebut, en dévissant simplement les vis 3, et en pouvant réutiliser le même dispositif dans une nouvelle reliure, elle aussi fournie indépendamment du dispositif.Naturally, as already said, the entire closure device can be reused when the binding is to be sent to scrap, by simply unscrewing the screws 3, and being able to reuse the same device in a new binding, too supplied independently of the device.

Toutes ces particularités sont possibles dans cette nouvelle forme de réalisation du dispositif de fermeture perfectionné, qui présente, entre autres, des avantages sur le plan esthétique, du fait de l'élimination de la fente sur une des extrémités de l'anneau, tandis que sur le plan pratique on obtient une plus grande facilité d'insertion de la saillie dans l'encastrement, et que sur le plan économique on abaisse le coût de fabrication, ce qui peut permettre par conséquent une réduction du prix de vente du dispositif.All these features are possible in this new embodiment of the improved closure device, which has, among other things, advantages from an aesthetic point of view, due to the elimination of the slot on one of the ends of the ring, while from a practical point of view, it is easier to insert the projection in the installation, and that economically it lowers the manufacturing cost, which can therefore allow a reduction in the selling price of the device.
