Definitions
- the invention belongs to requisites, which are adapted for sorting and organizing documents, especially of such kind, which comprise corresponding means for inserting through the openings, by which the stored documents are equipped, namely among two-part clipping assemblies consisting of a stable part provided with at least two stable pins and a pivotable part also provided with at least two pivotable pins.
- the invention is based on the problem, how to enhance stiffness or to reduce deformability of such a clipping assembly, especially of a base plete thereof, by means of which the said assembly is attached onto each belonging cover of a document file, which on the other hand also means, that by taking into account all requirements related to use of such products, especially the allowed deformability in any regular loading situation, the weight of such assembly should be essentially reduced with respect to the weight of the previously known assemblies, and moreover, manufacturing thereof should also be easier and would require less energy by forming thereof.
- document files are widely known. Usually, such products are similar to other folders, which are intended for storing sheets, which are previously perforated in order to comprise appropriate openings, arranged on a required distance therebetween.
- Such document file ordinary consists of two covers or boards, between which there is an intermediate board, and appropriate clipping assembly is attached onto a rearward board. Attaching is ordinary achieved by means of riveting.
- the covers ordinary consist of cardboard or other similar material on the basis of paper, which may be coated with a layer of plastics or provided with a surface treated in any other manner with respect to various requirements.
- the said clipping assembly mostly consists of metallic parts.
- the document file as such belongs to typical products, which are manufactured by the so-called serial mass production, and such manufacturing is ordinary exposed to extreme care with respect to reduction of manufacturing expenses, so that manufacturing is profitable exclusively under extremely reduced manufacturing costs.
- such product must fulfill various requirements. For example, withstanding against the moisture has to be ensured and also appropriate durability.
- the belonging clipping assembly must be resistant against the corrosion and also precisely manufactured, and especially, its stiffnes has to be sufficient to enable simple opening or closing without disturbances even in a completely loaded state thereof.
- a further discussion shall be focused more or less exclusively to problems related to ensuring a required stiffness of such assembly.
- the stiffness is sufficient, when by completely loaded document file deflections i.e. deformations of pivotable and stable pins are kept within determined limits, by which a desited co-axial abutment of the corresponding pins is still maintained, and when undesired opening of a file is excluded. Accordingly, by completely loaded document file, opening and closing thereof may still be performed without any disturbances, and undesired removing sheets is still impossible, although the document file is held by user by means of only a single board thereof and in its hanging state.
- the clipping assembly of a document file commonly consists of a stable part, which comprises a desired number of stable pins, as well as of a pivotable part, which includes a desired number of pivotable pins.
- Each of the said pivotable pins may be swiveled either in a direction towards the belonging stable pin or in the opposite direction, i.e. from the stable pin away.
- Each corresponding pair of a stable pin and a pivotable pin forms a U-shaped loop, which extends through appropriate openings, which have to be perforated on each paper sheet, intended for inserting into a file.
- various assemblies are available, which have various number of pivotable pins and stable pins, by which the said number may be two, three or even more.
- the said pins may be manufactured and arranged in accordance with e.g. German standards (DIN) related to archive requisites for documents, which are perforated by two openings, where a distance between these openings is 80 mm.
- DIIN German standards
- Such assembly is foreseen for attaching onto a rearward cover of a document file and consists of a stable base plate, on which two stable pins made of a relatively thick metal wire with a round cross-section are attached on the required distance therebetween, as well as of a pivotable base plate, on which two pivotable pins are fixed.
- Each of the said stable pins is set approximately perpendicularly with respect to the said rectangular plate and is curved in form of a letter J at appropriate distance from the said plate and in the direction towards the belonging movable pin.
- a movable plate is available, which may by one of the embodiment also be manufactured directly from a curved part of a stable base plate, while by the other embodiments the said plate is attached to the stable plate.
- the said movable base plate is equipped with two pins, which may be moved by moving the said plate. Analogously like the previously mentioned pins, also these pins are manufactured of a relatively thick wire having a circular cross-section and being curved towards the belonging stable pins. Still further, a cantilever is foreseen on the stable base plate, which is equipped with a swiveling point of an actuating lever.
- the said lever consists of two portions, where the longer portion is intended for actuation i.e. for closing or opening the clipping assembly, while the shorter portion rests on the surface of the pivotable base plate and serves for moving thereof.
- the pivotable base plate is displaced with respect to the stable plate, by which the pivotable pins are moved either towards the stable pins or in the opposite direction.
- intensity of pressing each movable pin towars the belonging stable pin is equal on both pairs of the pins.
- each difference in respect to the said pressing intensity automatically results in supplemental undesired deformations of the assembly in its closed state, regardles to quantity of the documents stored in the document file.
- appropriate stiffness of the base plate has to be ensured, which may be achieved only by means of using appropriate material, especially a steel plate of appropriate quality and a required thickness. Accordingly, manufacturing of such assembly is relatively difficult, and the weight thereof is relatively high.
- the forming tools which are intended for bending thicker steel plates, are exposed to essential loadings, and are ordinary much more complicated and more expensive like the tools intended for bending essentially thinner steel plates, which is in addition to higher costs of material also expressed in total expenses related to manufacturing such assembly.
- each pin is equipped with a conical protrusion, by means of which it may be inserted into a conical seat, which is available in the base plate. Consequently, such enlargement of contact surfaces between the base plate and the corresponding pins may no doubt lead to improved anchoring and reduces deformability, so that the distance between the axes of the pins may be easier kept within the determined values.
- DE 43 27 270 Al a similar problem is described, which is however solved in a different manner. Unfortunately, none of these solutions may not essentially increase the stiffness of the clipping assembly, since the deviations of the distance between the axes of the pins mostly result from deformations of the base plate and not of the pins.
- a cutout is aranged in the central portion of the base plate, which is bent into a inclined position, almost perpendicularly with respect to the surface of the base plate, which serves for establishing a desired swiveling point intended for connecting appropriate lever, which serves for displacing the said pivotable part of the clipping assembly against the pressure of appropriate spring.
- the base plate is still easiliy deformable in its longitudinal direction, i.e. by bending thereof arround its neutral central axis extending in the middle of the plate in the transversal direction thereof at least essentially on the level of the plate itself.
- the present invention relates to a clipping assembly of a document file, which is especially intended for attaching to the interior surface of the rear cover of a document file and consists of a base plate, a clipping set and an actuating set.
- the base plate may also comprise, in addition to attaching openings, appropriate positioning means, which may be arranged adjacent to the central portion, in which an essentially inclined, with respect to the plane of the base plate almost perpendicularly directed cantilever is available, which is equipped with a swiveling point and a limitation means adapted for cooperation with the actuating set.
- a clipping set which is available on the said base plate and supported by appropriate spring, consists of at least two stable pins as well as of a pivotable part consisting of complementary pivotable pins.
- the stable pins are mounted in a non- detachable manner onto the base plate adjacent to the belonging longitudinal edge.
- the pivotable part is by means of its coaxially arranged guiding portions pivotably inserted within appropriate bearings, which are arranged adjacent to the other longitudinal edge of the base plate, and comprises at least two pivotable pins, which are adapted for cooperation with the said stable pins in sense of pressing each pivotable pin against each corresponding stable pin, as well as a linear central portion, which extends parallel with respect to the said guiding portions and is adapted for cooperation with the said actuating set, while between the said central portion and the said guiding portions appropriate inclined intermediate portions are available.
- the actuating set consists of a double-arm actuating lever, the longer arm of which serves for ensuring a force, which is required for moving the assembly from its opened to its closed position or vice-versa, while its shorter arm is pivotable connected to the cantilever in the area of the swiveling point and is moreover equipped with a pressing means intended for resting on the central portion of the clipping set in sense of pressing in opposite direction with regard to the force resulting from a spring, by means of which the said pivotable part is supported on the base plate and simultaneously pivotable inserted within the bearings.
- the said plate comprises at least one elevation, which is arranged in the area below each intermediate portion lying between the central portion and each belonging guiding portion and/or below each belonging guiding portion of the clipping set, and in addition, the central portion of the said base plate below the cantilever is elevated above the other areas of the base plate by means of a surrounding bow, which extends along at least a part of the circumference of the said portion.
- the said elevations below the intermediate portions of the pivotable part are preferably available in form of pressed protrusions, but may also be formed e.g.
- the base plate comprises one elevation arranged below each of both intermediate portions available between the central portion and each belonging guiding portion of the clipping set. It is moreover also possible to arrange elevations to the base plate below the guiding portions of the pivotable part.
- the base plate may furthermore comprise, in addition to the said elevations as well as to the elevated central portion, which is at least partially surrounded by the bow, at least one longitudinal reinforcing means and/or at least one transversal reinforcing means.
- the said longitudinal reinforcing means consists of a rib extending along the base plate, as well as of a groove extending parallel with respect to the said rib and adjacent trereto.
- Such longitudinal reinforcing means is preferrably arranged adjacent to the longitudinal edge and closely to the stable pins.
- the base plate may comprise at least one longitudinal reinforcing means, which consists of two separate grooves extending co- linearly at least approximately in the longitudinal direction of the base plate, namely at least essentially parallel with respect to at least one of the longitudinal edges of the base plate. This last mentioned reinforcing means may however be present, when the elevations are available below the intermediate portions of the pivotable part of the clipping set.
- the base plate comprises at least one transversal reinforcing means in form of a knicked groove, which extends among each corresponding stable pin and the belonging pivotable pin as well as the elevated central portion of the base plate, and is preferrably arranged adjacent to the positioning means in such a manner, that it surrounds at least partially the said positioning means.
- the preferred embodiment of such transversal reinforcing means is conceived in form of a knicked groove, which consists of a central portion extending at least approximately in the longitudinal direction of the base plate i.e.
- the preferred embodiment of the base plate comprises two transversal reinforcing means, each of them is arranged in a desired area, preferrably arround each belonging positioning means.
- the said elevations on the base plate which are preferrably arranged below the intermediate portions of the pivotable part of the clipping set, are with respect to their height adapted for resting the belonging intermediate portion available between the central portion and the belonging guiding portion onto the belonging one of said elevations during the maximal loading, which occurs by passing the pressing means of the actuating set over the lowest point i.e. the point of minimal distance thereof with respect to the base plate.
- the central portion of the base plate is equipped below the cantilever with appropriate swiveling point of the double-arm lever of the actuating set, and moreover, the base plate comprises a bow, thanks to which the said central portion is elevated with respect to other areas of the base plate.

- Fig. 7 is a schematic presentation of loading and deformation performances of the swiveling part of the clipping set of the assembly according to the invention.
- a clipping assembly of a document file which has been created in accordance with the present invention and is shown in the drawings, consists of a base plate 1, on which a clipping set 2 is arranged, > which can be placed in each desired position by means of appropriate actuation set 3.
- the base plate 1 consists of an essentially uniform part of a cold-formed metal plate having slightly rounded corner areas 110', 110", 120', 120" and comprising appropriate positioning means 10', 10", which are by this particular embodiment available as round bores and serve exclusively for the purpose of positioning during performing required steps in the process of manufacturing the base plate 1 and/or completing the assembly, while on the other hand, the said means have no essential influence with regard to functioning of the assembly as such.
- the said bearings 122', 122" are in this particular embodiment established by means of cutting-off trapezoidal parts of the material of the base plate 1 and bending thereof during assembling in the direction towards the belonging longitudinal edge 121 of the base plate 1, so that at least approximately cyllindrical passage is formed inside of each bearing 122', 122".
- a cantilever 14 is arranged in the central area 16 of the base plate 1, which comprises a swiveling point 140 adapted for cooperation with the actuation set 3, which will be disclosed later. Also the said cantilever 14 is formed by means of cutting-off material of the base plate 1 and deflecting thereof from the level of the said base plate 1 into another position, which is shown in the enclosed drawing.
- the cantilever 14 is bent into an inclined position, and actually extends almost perpendicularly with respect to the surface of the base plate 1.
- the base plate 1 in this particular embidiment comprises four bores 41, 42, 43, 44, which serve for mounting the assembly to the belonging cover of a desired document file, which is however not shown in the drawing.
- the clipping set 2 consists of a stable part 21 which is formed by stable pins 21', 21", as well as of a movable part 22, which is pivotable attached onto the base plate 1 and comprises pivotable pins 22', 22".
- Each of the said stable pins 21', 21" consists of a metal wire or rod having circular or at least essentially circular cross-section, and is in the area of the said seats 112', 112" fixed in a non-detachable manner onto the said base plate 1, extending thereby at least essentially perpendicularly with respect to the said base plate 1.
- utmost portions 210', 210" of the pins 21', 21" are slightly bended towards the belonging pins 22', 22" of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2.
- the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 also consists of a metal wire or rod having circular or at least essentially circular cross-section. It is important, that the said pivotable part 22 is adapted for pivotable attachment onto the base plate 1 as well as for appropriate cooperation with the actuation set 3, and especially also for coaxial alignment of pivotable pins 22', 22" with respect to the stable pins 21', 21" in the closed state of the assembly as shown in the Figs. 1 to 3.
- the discussed pivotable part 22 comprises two coaxially extending, but in the axial direction separately arranged linear guiding portions 221', 221", which are adapted for insertion into corresponding bearings 122', 122" on the base plate 1, and furthermore also a linear central portion 222, and moreover also two pivotable pins 22', 22", which extend at least essentially perpendicularly with respect to the said base plate 1 and on the desired distance therefrom, and are slightly bent towards to the belonging stable pins 21', 21".
- Intermediate portions 223', 223 which are lying between the said central portion 22 and each belonging guiding portion 221', 221", extend inclined from each corresponding guiding portion 221', 221" to the central portion 222.
- the said guide portions 221', 221" of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 extend coaxially each to another and moreover also at least essentially parallel with respect to the adjacent longitudinal edge 121 of the base plate 1, and are moreover separately inserted into the belonging bearings 122', 122" as available on the base plate 1, by which the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 may be swiveled with respect to the base plate 1 and also to the stable pins 21', 21" for a desired angle, which as a matter of fact enables opening or closing the assembly according to the invention, as evident in the Figs. 3 and 5.
- the said central portion 222 is adapted for establishing cooperation between the pivotable part 22 and the actuating set 3.
- the central portion 222 extends at least essentially parallel and non-coaxially with respect to the said guiding portions 221', 221".
- Such embodiment may be achieved by means of trapezoidal bending of the material of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2, which is visible in the enclosed drawing as well as in the documents belonging to the prior art.
- pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 is supported in the area of the central portion 222 by means of a spring 23, which is attached to the base plate 1 and intended for establishing a required pressure against the pivotable part 22 in the central portion 222 thereof, the consequence of which is a springy supported swiveling of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 on the base plate 1.
- the actuating set 3 of the assembly comprises a double-arm actuating lever 31, which consists of a longer arm 311 and a shorter arm 312 as well as of appropriate pressing means 313.
- the said longer arm 311 is intended for establishing a required force in a desired direction, which is required for opening or closing the assembly as such, namely for displacing the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2.
- the said lever 31 is pivotably attached to the said swiveling point 140 on the cantilever 14 on the base plate 1 by means of its longer arm 312, where the maximum declination of the arm 31 is determined by the position of a limitation means 141, which is foreseen on the cantilever 14 and formed as a protrusion or deflection on the surface of the cantilever 14 faced towards the lever 31.
- the said pressing means 313 is arranged at least essentially in the area of coinciding the said arms 311, 312 of the lever 31, and is in the discussed embodiment formed by a rolling element 3130, which is freely turnable placed on the belonging pivot 3131 arranged on the said lever 31.
- Figs. 4 and 5 the clipping assembly is shown in its opened state, into which any desired documents may be inserted, which must however be previously perforated in appropriate manner, namely depending on the distance between the pins 21', 21".
- the stable pins 21', 21" are fixed on the base plate 1, while the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 is swiveled away due to the pressure of the spring 23, so that the pivotable pins 22', 22" are placed at a certain distance from the stable pins 21', 21".
- the lever 31 of the acuating set 3 is swiveled into its end position at the maximal distance from the base plate 1, and the rolling element 3130 of the pressing means 313 is rest onto the central portion 222 of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2, while the lever 31 of the actuating set 3 is rest on the limitation means 1 1 of the cantilever 14 of the base plate 1, so that any further swiveling of the lever 31 due to the pressure of the spring 23 against the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 is disabled.
- the loadings occuring on the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 are schematically shown in the Fig. 6.
- the pivotable part 22 is presented in its unloaded state by means of a thickened line, while the same part 22 is shown by means of a dotted line in its loaded and adequately deformed state.
- the said pivotable part 22 is loaded in its central part 222 by means of the force F, which is a consequence of resting the pressing means 313 of the actuating set 3 against the central portion of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 in that moment, when the said pressing means 313 is moved into its lower position, the closest to the base plate 1.
- the forces Rl and R2 are reaction forces, by which the pivotable part is loaded in the area of its portions 221', 221" as placed in the corresponding bearings 122', 122" on the base plate 1.
- the pivotable part 22 is exposed to bending stresses, and its ins 22', 22" in such a state show the tendency of moving one towards another. Deformations of such kind may result damages on documents, which are stored within the document file.
- the base plate 1 is exposed to bending stresses as a consequence of the force resulting from resting the pressing means 313 against the central portion 222 of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2.
- This force is transferred via the swiveling point 140 onto the cantilever 14 acting thereby in the direction away from the base plate 1, so that the base plate 1 shows the tendency of bending, namely deflecting the central area 16 below the cantilever 14 in the direction from the ground away, as well as deflecting central portions of the longitudinal edges 111, 121 of the base plate 1 in the same direction.
- reinforcing elevations 15', 15" are arranged on the base plate 1 in the area of resting intermediate portions 223', 223", which are in this particular embodiment formed in a quite simple manner in form of pressed protrusions.
- the main purpose of improving the base plate 1 by means of these elevations 15', 15” is to ensure appropriate resting of intermediate portions 223', 223" of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 onto the said elevations 15', 15" each time, when the base plate 1 is exposed to maximum stresses by moving the pressing means 313 into the lowest position and abutting the pivotable pins 22', 22" towards the stable pins 21', 21". In such a way, deformations of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 and also of the base plate 1 as such are essentially reduced in this state when being exposed to maximal stresses.
- Figs. 6 and 7 show the situation related to loadings and deformation of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2, when resting onto the said elevations 15', 15".
- reduced forces rl and r2 occur in the area of bearings 122', 122" instead of the former reaction forces (Rl and R2 according to Fig. 6) in the opposite direction, and opposite with respect to them, in the area of the said elevations 15', 15" the other forces PI and P2 are available, which are indeed some stronger, but are thanks to their direction in such situation essentially easier acceptable. Accordingly, deformation of the pins 22', 22" is essentially reduced.
- the described loading situation brings essential benefits also when bearing in mind the loadings and deformations occuring by the base plate 1 itself. Due to pressing the intermediate portions 223', 223" of the pivotable part 22 of the cliping set 2 towards the elevations 15', 15", bending of the base plate 1 in this area may be essentially reduced.
- the central portion 16 of the base plate 1 arround the cantilever 14 is equipped with an elevated surrounding bow 160, so that the said portion 16 is elevated and lies above the other areas of the base plate 1 , and is in fact arranged as the top portion of the base plate 1.
- a further measure in course of essentially reduction or elimination deformations of the base plate 1 in sense of deflecting the longitudinal edges 111, 121 in the directions from the ground away, is realized by providing longitudinal reinforcing means 17, 18.
- the first longitudinal reinforcing means 17 is arranged adjacent to the longitudinal edge 11 lying on the same side of the base plate 1 as the stable pins 21', 21".
- the said reinforcing means 17 consists of a rib 171, extending at least essentially parallel with respect to the belonging edge 111 of the base plate, as well as of a groove 172 in its adjacency, which also extends in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 1.
- Still further longitudinal reinforcing means 18 is arranged on the opposite side of the base plate 1, consisting thereby of two separate colinearly directed grooves 181, 182, extending at least approximately in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 1, i.e. at least substantially parallel with respect to at least one of the longitudinal edges 111, 112 of the base plate 1.
- transversal reinforcing means 19', 19" are foreseen. These reinforcing means 19', 19” are arranged among each corresponding stable pin 21', 21" and pivotable pin 22', 22" as well as the central portion 16. In this particular embodiment, the transversal reinforcing means 19', 19", are arranged arround the positioning means 10', 10".
- Each of these reinforcing means 19', 19 is available in form of a curved or knicked groove, the central section 191', 191" of which extends in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 1, and coincides with the belonging end sections 192', 192" and 193', 193".
- the central section 191', 191" of the transversal reinforcing means 19', 19” is arranged on such side of the positioning means 10', 10", which is arranged closely to the stable pins 21', 21", while the end sections 192', 192" and 193', 193" extends on each side of the positioning means 10', 10" towards the bearings 122', 122" in a slightly inclined direction each towards another without coinciding each to another.
- the stiffness thereof is essentially improved with respect to the base plates of various clipping assemblies as known from the prior art.
- the said elevations 15', 15" are preferably available in form of pressed protrusions, but may also be formed e.g. by means of cutting-out and subsequently bending a part of the material of the base plate 1, or also as a nipple or any other protrusion, which may be attached to the base plate 1 in a relevant area thereof either by means of welding or riveting or in any other similar mathod of attaching.
- the belonging elevation 15', 15" is available below each of the said two intermediate portions 223', 223" of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2 a single elevation 15', 15", it is also possible to arrange elevations below the guiding portions 221', 221" of the pivotable part 22 of the clipping set 2. In such case, the longitudinal reinforcing means 181 , 182 needs not to be present on the base plate 1.
