Abstract

A simple method for creating a spiral bound book has double size sheets printed on one side and provided with binding holes on the two outer edges. The sheets are folded into double pages with the binding holes overlapping and are secured by spiral binding to form a book with double sided effect pages. The creator does not require a duplex printer.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Spiralbuch mit einer Spiralwendel und bedruckten Blättern, die Lochreihen zum Hindurchfädeln der Spiralwendel aufweisen.The invention relates to a spiral book with a spiral spiral and printed sheets having rows of holes for threading the spiral helix.

Bekannt sind Spiralbücher, bei denen ein Blattstapel durch eine Spiralwendel zusammengehalten wird, die durch die Löcher einer Lochreihe des Blattstapels hindurchgefädelt ist.Spiral books are known in which a stack of sheets is held together by a spiral spiral which is threaded through the holes of a row of holes of the sheet stack.

Ein herkömmliches Spiralbuch ist in US-A-2003/0230887 offenbart.A conventional spiral book is in US-A-2003/0230887 disclosed.

Bei herkömmlichen Spiralbüchern und Heften ist die Seitenanzahl gegeben. Gleichzeitig sind die Spiralen am Fuß und am Kopf so umgebogen und versiegelt, dass sie sich nicht mehr herausdrehen lassen. In diesem Fall erfüllt die Spirale nur eine starre buchbinderische Funktion. Der Buchinhalt kann nicht verändert werden.With conventional spiral books and booklets the number of pages is given. At the same time, the spirals on the foot and head are bent over and sealed so that they can not be unscrewed. In this case, the spiral meets only a rigid bookbinding function. The book content can not be changed.

Es besteht häufig der Wunsch, dass Personen ein persönliches Buch anfertigen und selbst gestalten. Für solche Bücher können für einzelne Seiten Druckvorlagen benutzt werden, wie Gedichte, Kurzgeschichten, Anleitungen aber auch Formulare für Zeitplaner, Kalender, Adressbücher. Mit den entsprechenden Druckvorlagen könnte man sich auch individuell und flexibel Tagebücher, Adressbücher, Lesetagebücher, Naturtagebücher, Poesiealben, Fotoalben usw. selber zusammenstellen.There is often a desire for people to make and personalize a personal book. For such books, print templates can be used for individual pages, such as poems, short stories, manuals, but also forms for schedulers, calendars, address books. With the appropriate print templates you could also individual and flexible diaries, address books, reading diaries, nature diaries, poetry albums, photo albums, etc. put together yourself.

Das Erstellen von Büchern aus einzelnen Seiten erfordert es, dass das Buch beschädigungsfrei gelöst und wieder zusammengesetzt werden kann. Diese Anforderungen werden von einem Spiralbuch erfüllt.Creating books from individual pages requires that the book be solved and reassembled without damage. These requirements are fulfilled by a spiral book.

Besonders interessant sind Spiralbücher für Kinder und Heranwachsende. Diese werden damit in die Lage versetzt, ihr individuelles und sehr persönliches Buch zusammenzustellen oder auch ein Buch für Freunde zu gestalten. Anregungen und Hinweise für solche Buchgestaltungen liefert der Labbé-Verlag, Bergheim. Entsprechende Anregungen und Vorlagen sind auch unter der Internetadresse des Verlages abrufbar. Dort sind Inhalte von Buchseiten herunterladbar und ausdruckbar. Ein Buch sollte normalerweise Seiten haben, die doppelseitig bedruckt sind. Das doppelseitige Bedrucken von Seiten erfordert bei vielen Druckern, wie sie in Verbindung mit PCs benutzt werden, das Umwenden des Blattes. Wenn mehrere Blätter bedruckt werden, besteht die Gefahr, dass Umsortierungen und Verwechslungen stattfinden. Selbst wenn ein Kopierer vorhanden ist, der zum doppelseitigen Bedrucken in der Lage ist, treten gelegentlich Schwierigkeiten auf, die vom Benutzer nur schwer zu meistern sind.Particularly interesting are spiral books for children and adolescents. They will be able to put together their own individual and very personal book or even make a book for friends. Suggestions and tips for such book designs supplies the Labbé-Verlag, Bergheim. Corresponding suggestions and templates are also available on the Internet address of the publisher. There contents of book pages are downloadable and printable. A book should normally have pages that are double-sided. Double-sided printing on pages requires turning the page on many printers, such as those used with PCs. If multiple sheets are printed, there is a risk of resorting and confusion. Even if there is a copier capable of double-sided printing, there are occasional difficulties that are difficult for the user to master.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Spiralbuch zu schaffen, das es dem Benutzer ermöglicht, durch einfaches Ausdrucken von Computerinhalten ein Spiralbuch aus doppelseitig bedruckten Seiten herzustellen.The invention has for its object to provide a spiral book that allows the user to produce by simply printing computer contents a spiral book of double-sided printed pages.

Das erfindungsgemäße Spiralbuch ist durch den Anspruch 1 definiert. Es ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Blätter Doppelblätter sind, die zwei durch eine Falzlinie getrennte Blattseiten aufweisen und dass zwei Lochreihen an jedem Doppelblatt parallel zu der Falzlinie angeordnet sind.The spiral book according to the invention is defined by claim 1. It is characterized in that the sheets are double sheets having two sheet sides separated by a fold line, and two rows of holes are arranged on each double sheet parallel to the fold line.

Die Seiten des Spiralbuchs bestehen somit aus Doppelblättern. Diese können im auseinandergefalteten Zustand einseitig bedruckt werden, was mit einem einfachen Computerdrucker leicht möglich ist. Die Doppelblätter enthalten Lochreihen, die normalerweise entlang der Schmalseiten (Ober- und Unterseite) an den Rändern angeordnet sind. Wenn ein derartiges Doppelblatt um seine Mittellinie gefaltet wird, kommen die Lochreihen übereinander zu liegen, wobei ihre Löcher zur Deckung kommen. Das Doppelblatt wird so gefaltet, dass beide bedruckten Blatthälften an der Außenseite liegen.The pages of the spiral book thus consist of double sheets. These can be printed on one side in unfolded state, which is easily possible with a simple computer printer. The double sheets contain rows of holes, which are usually arranged along the narrow sides (top and bottom) at the edges. When such a double sheet is folded about its center line, the rows of holes come to lie one above the other, with their holes coming to coincide. The double sheet is folded so that both printed halves of the sheet lie on the outside.

Die Erfindung bietet die Möglichkeit, dass auch Personen, die im Umgang mit Computern zwar Grundkenntnisse haben, aber noch relativ ungeübt sind, in die Lage versetzt werden, ein Buch nach eigenen Vorstellungen unter Benutzung abrufbarer Seiteninhalte zu erstellen. Es ist nichts anderes nötig, als Doppelblätter, die an zwei entgegengesetzten Rändern Lochreihen aufweisen, in einen üblichen PC-Drucker einzusetzen und einseitig mit zwei Bildern zu bedrucken, von denen jedes eine Hälfte des Doppelblattes einnimmt. Anschließend erfolgt die Faltung und das so entstandene Doppelblatt ist bereit, in das Spiralbuch übernommen zu werden. Damit wird eine Person in die Lage versetzt, dass sie sich ihren eigenen persönlichen und individuellen Inhalt zusammenstellen, selber ausdrucken und binden kann. Es können auch Vordrucke und Formulare für Erwachsene (Kalender, Adressbücher, Notizbücher usw.) angeboten werden.The invention offers the possibility that even persons who have basic knowledge in dealing with computers, but are still relatively untrained, will be able to create a book according to their own ideas using retrievable page content. There is no need to use as double sheets, which have rows of holes at two opposite edges, in a conventional PC printer and to print on one side with two images, each of which occupies one half of the double sheet. Subsequently, the folding takes place and the resulting double sheet is ready to be taken over in the spiral book. This enables a person to assemble and personalize their own personal and individual content. Forms and forms for adults (calendars, address books, notebooks, etc.) can also be offered.

Vorzugsweise sind die Doppelblätter nicht mit einer Druckereipresse oder Walzenpresse bedruckt, sondern mit einem Tintenstrahl- oder Laserdrucker. Es handelt sich somit nicht um Massenerzeugnisse, sondern um einzeln hergestellte oder zumindest einzeln aus dem Internet selektierte Produkte, die dennoch für den jeweiligen Benutzer eine Individualität haben.Preferably, the double sheets are not printed with a printing press or roller press, but with an inkjet or laser printer. It is thus not mass-produced, but individually manufactured or at least individually selected from the Internet products that still have individuality for each user.

Das Spiralbuch kann mit mindestens einem Deckblatt aus einem Material mit höherer Steifigkeit als die bedruckten inneren Blätter bedeckt sein. Dieses Deckblatt kann ebenfalls als Doppelblatt mit einer Falzlinie und zwei Lochreihen ausgebildet sein. Es kann in gleicher Weise bedruckt werden, wie die inneren Blätter des Spiralbuchs. Insbesondere hat das Deckblatt auch die gleichen Abmessungen wie die inneren Blätter, so dass man mit einem einzigen Papierformat auskommt.The spiral book may be covered with at least one topsheet of a material having a higher rigidity than the printed inner sheets. This cover sheet may also be formed as a double sheet with a fold line and two rows of holes. It can be printed in the same way as the inner pages of the spiral book. In particular, the cover sheet also has the same dimensions as the inner sheets, so you can make do with a single paper size.

Die Erfindung eignet sich insbesondere für Anleitungen, Zusammenstellungen für Kinder und Jugendliche. Sie ermöglicht sehr individuelle Zusammenstellungen über unterschiedliche Themen. Das Spiralbuch kann somit zu einem Begleitbuch für seinen Zusammensteller oder Schöpfer werden.The invention is particularly suitable for instructions, compilations for children and adolescents. It allows very individual compilations on different topics. The spiral book can thus become a companion book for its composer or creator.

Die Erfindung kann aber auch für alle anderen webbasierte Vordrucke verwendet werden.The invention can also be used for all other web-based forms.

Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein Verfahren zum Herstellen eines flexibel veränderbaren Spiralbuchs mit den Schritten:

  1. a) Bereitstellen eines aus zwei Blattseiten bestehenden Doppelblattes mit zwei parallelen Lochreihen,
  2. b) Einseitiges Bedrucken des Doppelblattes mit zwei Bildern, von denen jedes einer Blattseite entspricht,
  3. c) Falten des Doppelblattes um eine parallel zu den Lochreihen verlaufende Falzlinie, derart, dass die Löcher der beiden Lochreihen zur Deckung kommen und
  4. d) Einführen einer Spiralwendel durch die Lochreihen mehrer Doppelblätter.
The invention further relates to a method for producing a flexibly changeable spiral book with the steps:
  1. a) providing a two-page double leaf with two parallel rows of holes,
  2. b) single-sided printing of the double sheet with two images, each corresponding to one page of sheets,
  3. c) folding the double sheet about a fold line extending parallel to the rows of holes, such that the holes of the two rows of holes come to cover and
  4. d) insertion of a spiral spiral through the rows of holes of several double sheets.

Im Folgenden wird unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the following an embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings.

Das in Figur 5 dargestellte Spiralbuch enthält mehrere Doppelblätter 10, die an ihrer rückwärtigen Längskante jeweils eine Lochreihe 11 bzw. 12 aufweisen. An der vorderen Längskante befindet sich eine Falzlinie 13, die durch Umfalten entstanden ist. Durch Falten um die Falzlinie 13 wird erreicht, dass die Löcher der beiden sich gegenüberliegenden Lochreihen 11, 12 (Fig. 2) passgenau aufeinander zu liegen kommen.This in FIG. 5 illustrated spiral book contains a plurality of double sheets 10, each having a row of holes 11 and 12 at its rear longitudinal edge. At the front longitudinal edge is a fold line 13, which is caused by folding. By folding around the fold line 13 is achieved that the holes of the two opposing rows of holes 11, 12 ( Fig. 2 ) come to fit each other precisely.

Das Doppelblatt 10 besteht aus zwei durch die Falzlinie 13 getrennten Blattseiten 15, 16. Die Lochreihen 11, 12 sind fester Bestandteil des Doppelblattes 10, d. h. sie sind nicht durch eine Perforation oder andere Schwächung mit dem Doppelblatt verbunden, sondern bilden einen dauerhaft tragenden bzw. haltenden Bestandteil des Doppelblattes.The double sheet 10 consists of two separated by the fold line 13 sheet sides 15, 16. The rows of holes 11, 12 are an integral part of the double sheet 10, ie they are not connected by a perforation or other weakening with the double leaf, but form a permanently supporting or holding part of the double leaf.

Das Doppelblatt 10 wird in der in Figur 2 dargestellten Form in einen Drucker 20 eingesetzt, um von diesem einseitig bedruckt zu werden. Das Doppelblatt 10 ist bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ein DIN A4 Blatt, bei dem die obere Schmalseite die Lochreihe 11 und die untere Schmalseite die Lochreihe 12 aufweist. Die Falzlinie 13, an der das Blatt später gefaltet wird, erstreckt sich in der Mitte des Doppelblattes 10 und unterteilt dieses in zwei Blattseiten 15, 16 des Formates DIN A5.The double sheet 10 is in the in FIG. 2 used form shown in a printer 20 to be printed on one side of this. The double sheet 10 is in the present embodiment, a DIN A4 sheet, in which the upper narrow side of the row of holes 11 and the lower narrow side of the row of holes 12 has. The folding line 13, at which the sheet is folded later, extends in the middle of the double sheet 10 and divides this into two sheet sides 15, 16 of the format DIN A5.

Der Drucker 20 ist beispielsweise ein Laserdrucker oder ein Tintenstrahldrucker. Es handelt sich um ein Peripheriegerät zu einem üblichen PC, der eine Internetverbindung aufweist. Aus dem Internet können die einzelnen Seiteninhalte, mit denen die Blattseiten 15, 16 bedruckt werden, heruntergeladen werden. Die Inhalte der einzelnen Blattseiten stehen im Internet, vorzugsweise als PDF-Datei, zur Verfügung und sind herunterladbar. Die PDF-Datei beschreibt das Layout einer jeden Seite originalgetreu und unveränderlich. Daher gibt die PDF-Datei das Bild einer Seite wieder, wobei dieses Bild sowohl graphische Elemente als auch alphanumerische Zeichen enthalten kann. Der Benutzer entnimmt das bedruckte Doppelblatt 10 dem Drucker 20, faltet es um die Falzlinie 13 herum, so dass die bedruckten Blattseiten nach außen zeigen (Fig. 4). Dann wird aus mehreren gefalteten Doppelblättern 10 ein Blattstapel gebildet. Die Löcher der Lochreihen der einzelnen Doppelblätter sind einander gleich, so dass sie deckungsgleich aufeinanderliegen und die Blätter im Blattstapel in exakter Ausrichtung zueinander liegen. Dann wird durch die miteinander fluchtenden Löcher der Lochreihen sämtlicher Doppelblätter 10 die Spiralwendel 18 hindurchgeführt. Die Spiralwendel 18 ist eine Schraubenwendel aus Draht oder einem schraubenförmig gebogenen elastischen Kunststoff. Durch Drehen der Spiralwendel 18 um ihre Achse erfolgt das fortlaufende Einfädeln in den Blattstapel und auch das spätere Herausdrehen der Spiralwendel aus dem Blattstapel. Mindestens ein Ende der Spiralwendel bildet einen schraubenwendelförmigen Auslauf.The printer 20 is, for example, a laser printer or an inkjet printer. It is a peripheral device to a standard PC that has an Internet connection. From the Internet, the individual page contents, with which the page pages 15, 16 are printed, are downloaded. The contents of the individual pages are available on the Internet, preferably as a PDF file, and are downloadable. The PDF file describes the layout of each page true to the original and immutable. Therefore, the PDF file reflects the image of a page, which image may contain both graphic elements and alphanumeric characters. The user removes the printed double sheet 10 from the printer 20, folds it around the fold line 13 so that the printed sheet pages face outward ( Fig. 4 ). Then, a sheet stack is formed from a plurality of folded double sheets 10. The holes of the rows of holes of the individual double sheets are equal to each other, so that they are congruent to each other and the leaves in the sheet stack are in exact alignment with each other. Then, the helical coil 18 is passed through the aligned holes of the rows of holes of all double sheets 10. The spiral coil 18 is a helical coil of wire or a helically bent elastic plastic. By turning the Spiral helix 18 about its axis, the continuous threading into the sheet stack and also the subsequent unscrewing of the spiral spiral from the stack of sheets. At least one end of the spiral helix forms a helical spout.

Das Spiralbuch enthält ferner ein Deckblatt 22 aus einem Material mit höherer Steifigkeit als die bedruckten inneren Doppelblätter 10. Das Deckblatt 22 kann aus Pappe bestehen oder auch aus Kunststoff. Es ist ebenfalls als Doppelblatt ausgeführt und mit zwei parallelen Lochreihen versehen, wie die übrigen Doppelblätter 10.The spiral book further includes a cover sheet 22 of a material having a higher rigidity than the printed inner double sheets 10. The cover sheet 22 may be made of cardboard or plastic. It is also designed as a double sheet and provided with two parallel rows of holes, like the other double sheets 10th

In dem Spiralbuch sind die einzelnen Doppelblätter 10 in fester gegenseitiger Zuordnung enthalten. Das Buch ist insgesamt doppelseitig bedruckt, wobei die einzelnen Blätter durch die Spiralwendel 18 sicher zusammengehalten werden. Es besteht daher nicht die Gefahr des Herausfallens einzelner Blätter. Durch die Doppelseitigkeit der Blätter wird auch das Ausreißen einzelner Löcher erschwert.In the spiral book, the individual double sheets 10 are contained in fixed mutual association. The book is printed on all sides double-sided, with the individual sheets are held together securely by the spiral coil 18. There is therefore no risk of falling out of individual leaves. Due to the double-sidedness of the leaves, the tearing of individual holes is also made more difficult.
