Definitions

  • This invention relates to a suspension file adapted for mounting in multiple numbers across parallel, spaced-apart support rails of a drawer of a filing cabinet.
  • Conventional suspension files comprise a 'U'-shaped pocket of card, manila, plastics or a mix of such materials, with upper edges of the pocket attached to a metallic strip having a notch adjacent each end for location on an adjacent support rail.
  • suspension files are frequently overloaded, with inserted paperwork exceeding both the capacity of the pocket and the load bearing capability of the strips, resulting in usually permanent damage and/or deformation to both components.
  • NL 1000021 In NL 1000021 is described the construction of individual sidewalls to form a 'V'-pocket, with a strip formed with a hanging rail receiving loop or tunnel attached to an upper edge of each sidewall.
  • a basic object of the invention is the provision of an improved, and heavy duty, suspension file.
  • a suspension file in accordance with the present invention is defined in Claim 1.
  • Preferred or optional features are defined in the appended sub-claims.
  • each body file provides a wider base than a conventional suspension file, allowing loading of more material without the sleeve "shrinking" in overall height, while the support rods can be so formed and/or dimensioned as to be incapable of deformation by weight of the contents of the suspension file alone, thus ensuring maintenance of the shape and integrity of the suspension file, whilst the use of oval rods provides for increased load bearing capacity.
  • Each sleeve is formed from plastic laminate.
  • Each sleeve is provided with webbing additives for enhanced strength and tear resistibility.
  • Each sleeve extends the full length of each upper edge of its pocket.
  • Each sleeve has inner projections adapted to engage an inserted rod to retain a rod in its sleeve, whilst permitting rod-to-sleeve movement as and when required.
  • the rods are of solid material.
  • the rods are tubular.
  • the rods are of synthetic plastics material.
  • the rods are of steel.
  • the rods are of an aluminium alloy.
  • the rods are a combination of metal and plastics eg a metal inner rod, surrounded by a plastics sheath.
  • the rods are non-circular.
  • the rods are oval, with the major axis adapted to be located vertically.
  • the rods slightly exceed the length of each sleeve, so as to enable each end of the rod to project from each end of the sleeve.
  • Each rod has an indentation or recess adjacent its end, adapted to engage a portion of a support rail of a filing cabinet drawer with restrained lateral movement, but with provision for sliding movement along the rails.
  • a suspension file 1 comprises a 'U'-shaped pocket 2 of flexible synthetic plastics material, being a one piece sheet defining two side panels 3 and an interconnecting bulbous lower portion or base 4.
  • the panels 3 have upper edges 5 welded into tubular sleeves 6 extending the full length of each side panel 3. Beneath each tubular sleeve 6 is a length 7 of reinforcing webbing which may also be secured by welding.
  • a solid steel rod 8 is of oval section with the major axis vertically located, and of length slightly exceeding the length of the sleeves 6, so that ends 9 opposite of each rod 8 project beyond each end of each sleeve 6.
  • the ends 9 are provided with an underside notch 10 to engage a support rail of a drawer of a filing cabinet.
  • Each sleeve 6 has inner projections or fingers (not shown) adapted to engage the periphery of its rod 8 to assist in retaining a rod 8 within its sleeve 6.
