Abstract

The invention relates to a file with a clip spring for loose sheets. According to the invention, a stopping device prevents the clip spring (9) that is guided in a pocket (8) located in the area of the file back (2) and moves back and forth from being lost. Said stopping device is made up of a series of punching tabs (14) projecting diagonally into the inside of the pocket. A bent segment on a limb (12) of the clip spring (9) is allocated to these tabs and serves as a counter-stop (13).

Description

SammelmappeBinder
Technisches GebietTechnical field
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sammelmappe zur Aufnahme von Blattgut mit einem vorderen und einem über einen Mappenrücken mit diesem verbundenen hinteren Mappendeckel sowie mit einer quer zum Mappenrücken um begrenzte Beträge verschiebbaren Kleπimfeder, die zwei über ein Joch verbundene Klemmschenkel aufweist, von denen einer gegen die Außenseite des hinteren Mappendeckels anliegt und einer durch eine Öffnung im Mappen- rücken in eine Tasche ragt, die von einem mehrfach gefalzten Längsrand eines Zuschnitts gebildet wird, der den hinteren Mappendeckel, den Mappenrücken und eine Randzone des vorderen Mappendeckels formt, wobei die Tasche in der Nähe des Mappenrückens mit einem die Unverlierbarkeit der Klemmfeder gegen- über der Mappe sichernden Anschlag versehen ist, der mit einem von einem abgewinkelten Steg des in die Tasche ragenden Klemmschenkels gebildeten Gegenanschlag zusammenwirkt.The invention relates to a folder for receiving sheet material with a front and a rear folder cover connected to this via a folder back and with a crosswise to the folder back by limited amounts displaceable Kleπimfeder, which has two clamping legs connected via a yoke, one of which against the outside of the the rear folder cover lies and one protrudes through an opening in the folder back into a pocket which is formed by a multiple folded longitudinal edge of a blank which forms the rear folder cover, the folder back and an edge zone of the front folder cover, the pocket near the Back of the folder is provided with a stop ensuring the captivity of the clamping spring relative to the folder, which interacts with a counter-stop formed by an angled web of the clamping leg projecting into the pocket.
Stand der TechnikState of the art
Eine Sammelmappe der vorstehenden Art ist aus der CH-PS 394 118 bekannt. Bei der bekannten Sammelmappe wird der zur Sicherung der Unverlierbarkeit der Klemmfeder dienende Anschlag von einem Falzstreifen gebildet, der sich über die gesamte Höhe des den hinteren Mappendeckel formenden Zuschnitts erstreckt. Der vorerwähnte Falzstreifen ist zwar vergleichswei- se schmal, erfordert jedoch nicht zuletzt im Hinblick auf den Massenartikelcharakter einschlägiger Mappen einen durchaus zu Buche schlagenden Aufwand an Material. Als unbefriedigend erweist sich zudem der Umstand, daß bei der Montage der Klemmfeder ein Falzbug überwunden werden muß und folglich eine vergleichsweise starke Spreizung der Klemmschenkel während des Montagevorganges vonnöten ist.A folder of the above type is known from CH-PS 394 118. In the known binder, the stop which serves to ensure that the clamping spring cannot be lost is formed by a folded strip which extends over the entire height of the blank which forms the rear folder cover. The above-mentioned folded strip is comparatively narrow, but not least in view of the mass-article character of relevant folders, it requires a considerable amount of material. The fact that a rebate has to be overcome during the assembly of the clamping spring and consequently a comparatively large spreading of the clamping legs during the assembly process is also unsatisfactory.
Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Sammelmappe der in Betracht gezogenen Gattung so umzugestalten, daß der zu ihrer Herstellung erforderliche Material- und Fertigungsaufwand ohne Beeinträchtigung der Haltbarkeit der Mappe reduziert wird. Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß der taschenseitige Anschlag von einer Reihe schräg in das Innere der Tasche ragender Stanzzungen eines Falzstreifens des mehrfach gefalzten Längsrandes des mit seinem Hauptteil den hinteren Mappendeckel formenden Zuschnitts gebildet wird.The invention has for its object to remodel a folder of the type under consideration so that the material and required for its production Manufacturing effort is reduced without affecting the durability of the portfolio. This object is achieved in that the pocket-side stop is formed by a row of punch tongues protruding obliquely into the inside of the pocket of a folded strip of the multi-folded longitudinal edge of the blank forming the rear folder cover with its main part.
Weitere Merkmale und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen und der nachstehenden Beschreibung einer in der beigefügten Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsform der Erfindung.Further features and details of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and the following description of an embodiment of the invention shown in the accompanying drawings.

Wege zur Ausführung der Erfindung In den Figuren ist 1 der hintere Mappendeckel einer Sammelmappe zur Aufnahme von ungelochtem Blattgut. Der linke Längsrand des den hinteren Mappendeckel 1 formenden Zuschnitts ist - wie aus den Figuren 5 bis 7 erkennbar - mehrfach gefalzt, er bildet neben dem hinteren Mappendeckel 1 den Mappenrücken 2 und zwei über einen Bug 3 ineinander übergehende Falzstreifen 4 und 5. Mit dem Falzstreifen 5 ist über eine Schweißnaht 6 ein vorderer Mappendeckel 7 verbunden. Der Mappenrücken 2, der Bug 3 und die Falzstreifen 4 und 5 bilden eine Tasche 8 zur Aufnahme einer Klemmfeder 9, die im dargestellten Fall aus einem mehrfach gefalzten Federstahlblechabschnitt besteht. Die Klemmfeder 9 weist einen hinteren Klemmschenkel 10 auf, der über einen V-förmigen Rücken 11 in einen vorderen Klemmschenkel 12 übergeht, an dessen dem Rük- ken 11 abgewandten Ende ein nach Art einer Hakenzinke ausgebildeter Gegenanschlag 13 für einen taschenseitigen Anschlag angeordnet ist, welch letzterer von sechs Stanzzungen 14 gebildet wird, die in das Innere der Tasche 8 ragen. Die Stanz- zungen 14 schließen mit dem Falzstreifen 5 einen Winkel ein, der kleiner als 30° ist, ihre Breite B ist größer als der Abstand A, den sie voneinander einnehmen. Durch die Vielzahl und Art der Anordnung der Stanzzungen 14 ist die Gewähr für eine sichere Verankerung der Klemmfeder 9 in der Tasche 8 gegeben. WAYS OF IMPLEMENTING THE INVENTION In the figures, 1 is the rear folder cover of a binder for receiving unperforated sheets. The left longitudinal edge of the blank forming the rear folder cover 1 is - as can be seen from FIGS. 5 to 7 - folded several times, in addition to the rear folder cover 1, it forms the folder spine 2 and two fold strips 4 and 5 which merge into one another via a bow 3. A fold folder 6 connects a front folder cover 7 to the fold strip 5. The portfolio back 2, the bow 3 and the folded strips 4 and 5 form a pocket 8 for receiving a clamping spring 9, which in the case shown consists of a multi-folded spring steel sheet section. The clamping spring 9 has a rear clamping leg 10, which merges via a V-shaped back 11 into a front clamping leg 12, at the end of which is turned away from the back 11 there is a counter-stop 13 designed in the manner of a hook prong for a pocket-side stop, which the latter is formed by six punch tongues 14 which protrude into the interior of the pocket 8. The punched tongues 14 form an angle with the folded strip 5 which is less than 30 °, their width B is greater than the distance A which they occupy from one another. The variety and type of arrangement of the punching tongues 14 ensures that the clamping spring 9 is securely anchored in the pocket 8.
