Definitions

  • the present invention relates to binding systems of printed works and, more particularly, of the type of those which include a large number of pages and which are intended for a intensive consultation.
  • a process sheet assembly where you put a cover sheet above and below a pile of sheets, we pierce the pile of sheets along one of the edges of the pile, we introduce in the point holes formed on a strip of heat-sealable material, has another strip of heat-sealable material on the tips pierced with corresponding holes, the two bands are pressed one towards the other, we weld the second strip on the tips of the first tape, we stick a sheet of resistant cardboard on each sheet of keep.
  • the cardboard sheet has a dimension slightly less than that of the surface of the cover sheet left free by the strip heat sealable, to be able to stick it at a sufficient distance from this band and thus allow it to pivot freely around its edge facing the heat-sealable strip.
  • the present invention is placed in this context and has for purpose of proposing a binding system making it possible to link printed works containing, in particular, a large number of sheets, ensuring effective protection of the sheets thus bound to allow their consultation by a large number of people, and also ensuring good legibility of the sheets in the vicinity of the binding.
  • the subject of the present invention is a system binding of printed works consisting of sheets comprising each a first part intended for consultation and a second part intended for binding, in which binding is obtained by pinching of all the second parts of the leaves between two reinforcement strips.
  • the first part of each sheet has an information carrier covered on both sides with coating material, and the coating material forms a strip without of information carrier, of thickness less than that of the first part of the sheet and of predetermined width, greater the clamping width of the reinforcement strips.
  • the strips of reinforcement cooperate with rods passing through perforations evenly distributed along the edge of the second part of the leaves.
  • the rods are formed by screw rods cooperating with nuts, screw heads and nuts being located on either side of the reinforcing strips.
  • the two strips of reinforcement are formed in profiles each having a first wing for tightening the sheets of the work and a second wing intended to be fixed on a piece of furniture.
  • the two reinforcing strips are made in one piece, and are joined by a thinned and flexible central part.
  • a sheet intended to be bound according to the binding system of the present invention comprising a first part intended for the consultation and a second part intended for binding.
  • the first one part includes an information carrier 2, constituted for example a sheet of paper printed with text and / or images.
  • the support information sheet (or sheet of paper) 2 itself has a margin 4 at least on the side of the sheet intended to be connected, of width M, this margin 4 being devoid of information.
  • the sheet of paper 2 is also covered on its two sides, by a process known as plasticization or encapsulation, of a coating material 5, for example a film 5 of transparent plastic material, usable in such processes.
  • a film of this type generally has a thickness E ( Figure 2), for example, less than or equal to about 75 microns.
  • the leaves of cover are made in the same way, a cardboard sheet 2 ' ( Figure 3) being covered on both sides with a film 5.
  • the dimensions of the film 5 are superior to that of sheet of paper 2 and the cardboard sheet 2 'on the side thereof to be connected, of so as to provide a strip 3 of width D predetermined and devoid of information carrier, this strip 3 forming the second part of the sheet for binding.
  • Such a binding is obtained, as for example according to the document FR-A-2 464 827 cited above, by pinching the sheets between two reinforcement strips 7, of clamping width d.
  • These bands of reinforcement 7 can cooperate with rods 6 passing through perforations evenly distributed along the edge of the second part of the sheets intended for binding.
  • the rods 6 are made by screw rods cooperating with nuts, the screw heads and the nuts being located on either side of the reinforcement strips 7.
  • the sheets of the book including the two sheets of cover, thus each have a band 3 of width D, of thickness less than that of the part intended for the consultation, and substantially equal to twice that of film of coating, either substantially less than or equal to approximately 150 microns in the example used.
  • the width D of the strip 3 is greater by a predetermined amount than the width d of the reinforcement strips 7 between which the sheets of the work are tight.
  • the sheets to be bound are assembled in a stack, then clamped between two strips of reinforcement 7 over a width d of the strip 3, so that it there remains a strip of width D-d of maximum flexibility between the edge of the strips 7 and the edge of the information carriers 2.
  • this width D-d ensures the good readability of the pages of the book thus bound, and flexibility necessary for viewing the work, even if it includes a large number of leaves.
  • the leaves may be secured at the level of the strip 3 of the coating material 5 devoid of support of information by fusion of the coating material 5 or of a material added fuse, for example by laser or other means equivalent.
