Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for holding together perforated loose-leaf collections.
- a prior art device of this type is the in Fig. 1 shown stitching strips.
- the tacking strip a flat, narrow strip of metal is passed through the holes of the perforation and then bent so that the loose-leaf collection is held together.
- the stitching strip has the disadvantage that the leaves must be bent when leafing in the loose-leaf collection, and that a binding margin remains, which is not visible when browsing. Therefore, information in the area of the binding margin can not be perceived, or can only be cumbersome, by loosening the stapling.
- Another known device is the file folder, often called Leitz folder. When filing loose-leaf collections in file folders, there is no binding margin.
- file folders have a more expensive rigid mechanics and are therefore relatively bulky and unwieldy.
- document GB-A-1535933 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the device comprises a band element, which can be threaded through at least two holes of the perforation of the loose-leaf collection.
- the perforation may be a standard perforation, for example, the standard perforation according to DIN for A4 sheets with two or four holes, but also to other standard perforations, such as the standard holes for organizer ring binders, the u. a. known as "Filofax".
- the band element may be single-stranded or multi-stranded, in particular formed from one or more bands, cords and / or similarly flexible components.
- the band element or its strands or components can have any desired cross-sectional shapes, for example round, angular or flat, wherein a thin and / or narrow configuration is advantageous in comparison to the diameter of the holes to be fürfädelnden the loose-leaf collection.
- a suitable length it is achieved that the band element can be threaded through at least two holes of the perforated loose-leaf collection.
- the device according to the invention comprises retaining means with which it can be prevented that a threaded through threaded through the holes of the loose-leaf collection tape element slips out of the holes again.
- the device according to the invention is configured such that the retaining means occupy a retaining position or can be brought by the operator into a retaining position in which they retain the leaves of a loose-leaf collection threaded through the band element on the band element. This way you can held together with the band element loose-leaf collection.
- the retention means engage in the retaining position, the edges of the holes of the loose-leaf collection and thus prevent the manner of an anchor or barbs slipping of the leaves of the band member or slipping out of the band member from the perforation.
- the retention means need not always be in a retention position.
- the device according to the invention can also be designed in such a way that the retaining means can be brought into positions or positions in which leaves threaded through with the band element can be removed from the loose-leaf collection or new leaves can be added, or in which Sheet collection is held together firmer or safer.
- the retaining means are preferably fixed or detachably connected to the band member.
- the retaining means are arranged, attached or formed at the ends of the band member.
- the retaining means are made of a rigid and / or rigid material.
- the retaining means comprise at least one retaining element which can be pushed through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection. It when the retaining means are formed by two retaining elements, both of which are hin trimsteckbar through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection is particularly advantageous.
- the retaining means are elongated or rod-shaped, in particular formed as small elongated rods or slender webs. They have a length which is greater than the hole diameter the holes of the loose-leaf collection to be threaded through. If the retaining means are smaller in cross-section than the hole diameter of the holes of the loose-leaf collection, they can be passed through the holes and the band member attached to them can be threaded through the holes. In the retention position, these restraints lie across the holes in the loose-leaf collection for cohesion.
- the band member is fixed in relation to the length of the retaining means in a central region, preferably in the middle, of the retaining means. Furthermore, the length of the retaining means starting from the attachment point of the band member is smaller than the distance between the center of the holes of the loose-leaf collection and the nearest paper edge. This avoids that the retaining means protrude in the retaining position over the paper edge.
- the band element is elastically extensible. Thereby, the loose-leaf collection can be held together with the device according to the invention under tension of the band member, whereby the slipping of the held together leaves can be reduced.
- the length of the band element is adapted to the distance of two holes of a standard perforation and / or to certain stack heights of loose-leaf collections to be held together.
- the band element can be selected a little bit longer than the distance of two holes of a standard punch plus twice the stack height of the loose-leaf collections to be held together. Then, the band member can be passed from one hole to the other and through both holes, and held at each hole by a retaining member. Because of the longer length, you can scroll through it comfortably.
- the band member in cross section is so flat and / or thin and / or slender that a held together with the device loose-leaf collection can be filed in a file folder, the holes through which the band member is threaded through, also for the Stitching can be used in the file folder.
- the device bundled loose-leaf collections can be summarized in a particularly simple manner in a file folder, and the device of the invention can also fulfill a regulatory function.
- This embodiment offers an additional advantage over the previously known adhesive strip.
- the holes through which the metal strip of the HeftstMakes is guided, can not be used for filing in the file folder, since the metal strip in the perforation takes up too much space.
- the belt element threaded through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection can be closed to form a closed belt loop, advantageously by means of the retaining means.
- the retaining means comprise two retaining elements, which in turn have connecting means for connecting the two retaining elements.
- an annular closed endless belt loop can be formed with the device according to the invention, which is passed through at least two holes of the perforated loose-leaf collection and holds them together.
- the length of the band member can be chosen so that the guided through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection tape loop at tight ends of the band member or connected to restraint means tightly seated, so that the leaves of the held loose-leaf collection can slip only slightly against each other.
- the band element is elastically stretchable and almost twice as long as the distance between the two holes plus twice the stack height of the loose-leaf collection to be held together. Then the band element is tensioned with the loop closed and the device according to the invention is taut. When opening the loop or the connecting means then creates a free tape length, so that easily in the loose-leaf collection can be leafed without the leaves slip off the belt element, because they are retained by the retaining means.
- the device according to the invention comprises tensioning means for tensioning the stretchable band element when the device is applied to a loose-leaf collection for holding it together.
- the stretchable band member threaded through the perforation can be tensioned with the tensioning means when the retaining means are in a retention position or otherwise fixed.
- the clamping means is formed flat, for example as a rigid plate, in particular of plastic or metal, or as a card or as a comparable rigid and flat element. Thus, the clamping means can rest flat on the held together loose-leaf collection.
- the tensioning means is shaped such that, when the device of the invention is applied to a loose-leaf collection for holding it together, the strap element can be guided over the surfaces and around the edges of the tensioning means such that the strap element is held in tension.
- the clamping means is smaller than the format of the loose-leaf collection, z. B. smaller than the format DIN-A4. Thus, on the first page of the loose-leaf collection, uncovered or readable areas remain on which the tensioning means does not rest.
- the uncovered areas can be varied in size and / or position.
- the clamping means can also be made of a transparent or transparent or semi-transparent material, for. As plastic, be formed. Then the first side of the loose-leaf collection is at least partially visible or recognizable by the overlying clamping means.
- the clamping means has a perforation corresponding to the perforation, through which the band element is guided in the held together loose-leaf collection.
- retaining means which are inserted through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection can be inserted through the clamping means in a simple manner. The insertion of the band element into the holes of the tensioning means can be further simplified if slits are formed between the holes of the tensioning means and the edge of the tensioning means.
- the clamping means on a projection and / or a supernatant around which the band element can be placed without slipping off of the clamping means can be formed for example by a triangular approach to the clamping means or a bulge. Also possible are other outer contours of the clamping device, which prevent slipping of the tensioned band member, for example notches or suitable recesses. Also possible are suitable slits in the clamping element, in which the band element is inserted for holding and tension.
- the clamping means is designed as a register element and / or protective cover and / or -schreib and / or envelope and / or inscribable. In this way, the clamping means can fulfill order and / or protective functions.
- the band element can be chosen to be significantly longer than the distance or twice the distance of the holes fürgefädelten with the tape means.
- the clamping means With the clamping means, the excess length or free length of the band member is then stretched, so that the loose-leaf collection can be held tight together, and slipping of the sheets against each other can be largely prevented.
- Length of the band member and geometry of the clamping means can also be coordinated so that the tension of the band member is so weak at a held loose-leaf collection that can still be browsed in the loose-leaf collection, in such a way that the full page is visible or no binding margin remains.
- the design with clamping means and long length of the band member further allows a comparatively large variability of the stack height or thickness of the loose-leaf collection.
- a suitable design of the device with clamping means can be kept well together with one and the same length of the band member 5 to 300 sheets of normal typewriter paper.
- the clamping means on resilient elements in which the band element can be hung and held on train.
- the resilient elements may be helical and have recesses and / or slots, in which the band element is inserted and held there with the retaining means.
- a tension of the band member and a tight holding the loose-leaf collection is possible, even with a non-stretchable band member.
- the device according to the invention is made of environmentally friendly materials and / or made of materials which are shredderable, so that removal prior to shredding the held-together paper is not required.
- Fig. 1 shows the prior art adhesive strip H1 with the thin and narrow metal strip H2, which is inserted through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection 30 and then bent so that it holds the loose-leaf collection together.
- the disadvantageous binding margin H3 remains hidden, concealing the information located in this area.
- Fig. 2 to 9 show a first embodiment of the device 10 according to the invention for holding together perforated loose-leaf collections.
- the device 10 comprises a flexible, elastically extensible band member 12 which is formed as a flat rubber band 12.
- retaining means At the two ends of the rubber band 12 as retaining means each flat, elongated retaining elements 14, 16 are attached.
- the band member 12 is based on the length of the retaining elements 14, 16 attached in the middle.
- the retaining elements 14, 16 in turn have connecting means 18, 20 in the form of hooks. These connecting means or hooks can be detachably connected to each other or hooked into each other, so that the device 10 forms a closed band loop.
- Fig. 4 shows the device according to the invention, after which the retaining elements 14, 16 have been inserted through the holes 32, 34 of the loose-leaf collection 30.
- the band member 12 is threaded through the loops 32, 34 of the loose-leaf collection, with a central portion of the band member 12 at the bottom of the loose-leaf collection between the two holes 32 and 34, and the two end portions of the band member 12 at the top of the loose-leaf collection 12 from the holes 32, 34 reach out.
- Figure 4 also shows that the rubber band 12 is narrower than the diameter of the holes 32, 34.
- the two retaining elements 14, 16 have assumed a retaining position RP in which they prevent the band element 12 fastened to them from being able to slip out of the perforation 32, 34, so that the perforation 32, 34 remains threaded through the band element 12.
- the loose-leaf collection 30 is held together with the device according to the invention.
- Fig. 7 illustrates the connection of the two retaining means 14,16 by the connection or entanglement of the two connecting means or hooks 18, 20. Since the band member 12 is threaded through the perforation 32, 34 of the loose-leaf collection 30, the device according to the invention forms when connecting the Connecting means a closed band loop which passes through the two holes 32, 34 of the loose-leaf collection 30 and holds them together securely. As in Fig. 8 As shown, the length of the stretchable band member may be selected such that the band loop formed upon connection of the connecting means 18, 20 is seated with proper tension so that the loose sheet stack 30 is held together well and the individual sheets are avoided slipping against each other.
- the device according to the invention according to the first embodiment can be used for different hole spacings.
- Band element, retaining elements and hooks are flat and space-saving designed.
- the device according to the invention comprises a clamping means 40 for tensioning the elastically extensible band member 12.
- the band member 12 is formed as a round elastic in cross-section 12, at the ends of which the retaining elements 14, 16 are located.
- the retaining elements are elongate webs 14, 16, in the middle of which the ends of the Band element 12 are attached.
- the clamping means 40 is formed as a flat, rigid plastic plate 40, which has a projection with a triangular edge region 41.
- the tensioning means 40 has holes 42, 44 corresponding to the perforation of the loose-leaf collection 30 to be held together. Starting from the holes 42, 44 lead slots 46, 47 to the edge of the clamping means, which facilitate the insertion of the band member 12.
- the tensioning means 40 For bundling the loose-leaf collection, the tensioning means 40, as in Fig. 11 shown, from above onto the loose-leaf collection 30 so that the holes 42, 44 of the clamping means with the holes 32, 34 of the loose-leaf collection 30 are aligned.
- the two retaining elements 14, 16 with the band means 12 attached thereto are inserted from below through the two holes of the loose-leaf collection and the tensioning means.
- Fig. 12 shows the two retaining elements 14, 16 after passing through the perforation 32, 34, 42, 44th In Fig. 13 the two retaining elements 14, 16 are in a retaining position RP. In this position, the loose-leaf collection 30 is held together, leaving a free ribbon length of the ribbon member 12, and as shown in FIG Fig.
- Fig. 13 also shows that the length of the retaining elements 14, 16 is dimensioned so that they do not protrude in the retaining position beyond the edge 31 of the loose-leaf collection 30 close to the perforation.
- the band element is placed around the oblique edges of the triangular portion 41 of the clamping means 40 and so on Vorderund Led back of the clamping device.
- the length of the stretchable band member 12 is determined by the in Fig. 15 shown leadership of the band member 12 reaches an elongation, which causes a tight hold together the loose-leaf collection. This can avoid that the individual leaves of the loose-leaf collection 30 strongly slip against each other. If the central portion of the band member 12 is again removed from the clamping means 40 and in the in Fig. 13 brought shown situation, the held together with the device according to the invention loose-leaf collection is open and it can as in Fig. 6 be scrolled without difficulty.
- This opening and subsequent re-closing can be done with a simple handle, especially one-handed. Due to the length of the band member 12 can also be browsed in the closed loose-leaf collection so that the full page is visible or no binding margin remains, since even with complete flipping the elastic limit of the band member 12 is not reached. As in particular in Fig. 15 Good to see, wide areas of the first page of the loose-leaf collection are not covered by the overlying clamping means, so that the information printed there remains readable. By suitably changing the shape of the tensioning means 40, the uncovered or readable area of the first side of the loose-leaf collection can also be varied in size and shape. If the clamping means made of a transparent or transparent or semi-transparent material, and the area covered by the clamping means remains readable or recognizable.

- Fig. 17 to 23 show a third embodiment of a device 10 according to the invention, in which the clamping means 50 is designed as a tab sheet 50, which may be made of a rigid cardboard or of a rigid plastic. To reinforce the tab sheet 50 may be folded double-layered.
- a Holding device 52 formed in the register sheet 50.
- the holding device 52 is formed by suitable arcuate slotting of the register sheet 50.
- FIGS. 18 to 22 show the threading of the loose-leaf collection 30 with the device according to the invention and the tensioning of the band member 12 in this embodiment. As in FIG.
- Fig. 23 shows that even after this embodiment, bundled loose-leaf collection 30 can be stored in a file folder 60, wherein a labeling area 54 of the tab sheet 50 can be expanded.
- the fold-in and unfoldability of the tab sheet 50 is particularly advantageous because in this way during transport by folding damage to the tab projection can be avoided, which protrudes beyond the edge of the loose-leaf collection.
- the paper stack is given additional stability by the double thickness of the register sheet. If necessary, the tab can then be unfolded and fulfill its order function.
- Fig. 24 to 28 show a fourth embodiment of the device 10 according to the invention with a clamping means 70 which is formed of plastic with helical spring elements 72, 74. Due to the helical design, a spring effect can be generated with a suitable choice of material for the clamping means 70.
- the retaining elements 14, 16 are passed from below through the loose-leaf collection 30 to be held together and the perforation 76, 78 of the tensioning means 70.
- the band member 12 can be hung with the retaining means 14, 16 in the slots 80, 82 in the helical spring elements 72, 74 of the clamping element 70, so that the ends of the band member 12 are held there.
- the different slot positions allow different thicknesses of loose-leaf collections 30 or different stress levels. Due to the spring action of the helical spring elements 72, 74, the band member 12 must not be designed to be stretchable in this embodiment. If you want to scroll in the loose-leaf collection, the retaining elements 14, 16 are off the slots in the spring elements 72, 74 taken out. Then they can slip back to the holes 76, 78 in the clamping means 70. This creates a free length of tape, so that it is easy to leaf through the loose-leaf collection.
- perforated loose-leaf collections of different stack heights preferably between 5 and 300 sheets of writing paper

Advantageous embodiments are given in the dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäß weist die Vorrichtung ein Bandelement auf, welches durch mindestens zwei Löcher der Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchfädelbar ist. Bei der Lochung kann es sich um eine Normlochung handeln, beispielsweise um die Normlochung nach DIN für DIN-A4-Blätter mit zwei oder vier Löchern, aber auch um andere Normlochungen, beispielsweise die Normlochungen für Organizer-Ringbücher, die u. a. unter dem Namen "Filofax" bekannt sind. Das Bandelement kann ein- oder mehrsträngig ausgebildet sein, insbesondere aus einem oder mehreren Bändern, Schnüren und/oder ähnlich flexiblen Komponenten gebildet sein. Das Bandelement oder dessen Stränge bzw. Komponenten können beliebige Querschnittsformen aufweisen, beispielsweise rund, eckig oder flach, wobei eine im Vergleich zum Durchmesser der zu durchfädelnden Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung dünne und/oder schmale Ausgestaltung vorteilhaft ist. Durch eine geeignete Länge wird erreicht, daß das Bandelement durch mindestens zwei Löcher der gelochten Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgefädelt werden kann.According to the invention, the device comprises a band element, which can be threaded through at least two holes of the perforation of the loose-leaf collection. The perforation may be a standard perforation, for example, the standard perforation according to DIN for A4 sheets with two or four holes, but also to other standard perforations, such as the standard holes for organizer ring binders, the u. a. known as "Filofax". The band element may be single-stranded or multi-stranded, in particular formed from one or more bands, cords and / or similarly flexible components. The band element or its strands or components can have any desired cross-sectional shapes, for example round, angular or flat, wherein a thin and / or narrow configuration is advantageous in comparison to the diameter of the holes to be durchfädelnden the loose-leaf collection. By a suitable length it is achieved that the band element can be threaded through at least two holes of the perforated loose-leaf collection.
Des weiteren weist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung Rückhaltemittel auf, mit denen verhindert werden kann, daß ein durch die Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgefädeltes Bandelement wieder aus den Löchern herausrutscht. Dazu ist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung derart ausgestaltet, daß die Rückhaltemittel eine Rückhalteposition einnehmen bzw. vom Bediener in eine Rückhalteposition gebracht werden können, in der sie die Blätter einer mit dem Bandelement durchfädelten Lose-Blattsammlung auf dem Bandelement zurückhalten. Auf diese Weise kann eine mit dem Bandelement durchfädelte Lose-Blattsammlung zusammengehalten werden. Bevorzugt übergreifen die Rückhaltemittel in der Rückhalteposition die Ränder der Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung und verhindern so nach Art eines Ankers oder Widerhakens ein Abrutschen der Blätter vom Bandelement bzw. ein Herausrutschen des Bandelements aus der Lochung. Die Rückhaltemittel müssen sich nicht stets in einer Rückhalteposition befinden. Beispielsweise kann die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung auch so ausgebildet sein, daß die Rückhaltemittel in Positionen, Lagen bzw. Stellungen gebracht werden können, in denen mit dem Bandelement durchfädelte Blätter von der Lose-Blattsammlung entnommen oder neue Blätter hinzugefügt werden können, oder in denen die Lose-Blattsammlung noch fester bzw. sicherer zusammengehalten ist.Furthermore, the device according to the invention comprises retaining means with which it can be prevented that a threaded through threaded through the holes of the loose-leaf collection tape element slips out of the holes again. For this purpose, the device according to the invention is configured such that the retaining means occupy a retaining position or can be brought by the operator into a retaining position in which they retain the leaves of a loose-leaf collection threaded through the band element on the band element. This way you can held together with the band element loose-leaf collection. Preferably, the retention means engage in the retaining position, the edges of the holes of the loose-leaf collection and thus prevent the manner of an anchor or barbs slipping of the leaves of the band member or slipping out of the band member from the perforation. The retention means need not always be in a retention position. For example, the device according to the invention can also be designed in such a way that the retaining means can be brought into positions or positions in which leaves threaded through with the band element can be removed from the loose-leaf collection or new leaves can be added, or in which Sheet collection is held together firmer or safer.
Die Rückhaltemittel sind bevorzugt fest oder lösbar mit dem Bandelement verbunden. Vorzugsweise sind die Rückhaltemittel an den Enden des Bandelements angeordnet, angebracht bzw. ausgebildet.

Preferably, the retaining means are arranged, attached or formed at the ends of the band member. Preferably, the retaining means are made of a rigid and / or rigid material.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung umfassen die Rückhaltemittel mindestens ein Rückhalteelement, welches durch die Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchsteckbar ist. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Rückhaltemittel durch zwei Rückhalteelemente gebildet sind, die beide durch die Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchsteckbar sind. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung ist es möglich, die Rückhaltemittel mit dem daran angebrachten Bandelement von unten durch zwei Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchzustecken. Dann sind zwei Löcher mit dem Bandelement durchfädelt, und das Rückhaltemittel kann in eine Rückhalteposition gebracht werden, beispielsweise derart, daß es den Rand der Lose-Blattsammlung übergreift, so daß ein Zurückrutschen des Bandelements verhindert wird.In a preferred embodiment, the retaining means comprise at least one retaining element which can be pushed through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection.

In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung sind die Rückhaltemittel länglich bzw. stäbchenförmig, insbesondere als kleine längliche Stäbchen oder schlanke Stege ausgebildet. Dabei weisen sie eine Länge auf, die größer ist als der Lochdurchmesser der zu durchfädelnden Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung. Wenn die Rückhaltemittel im Querschnitt kleiner sind als der Lochdurchmesser der Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung, können sie durch die Löcher hindurchgesteckt werden, und das an ihnen befestigte Bandelement kann durch die Löcher hindurchgefädelt werden. In der Rückhalteposition liegen diese Rückhaltemittel quer über den Löchern der Lose-Blattsammlung und sorgen so für den Zusammenhalt.In another preferred embodiment, the retaining means are elongated or rod-shaped, in particular formed as small elongated rods or slender webs. They have a length which is greater than the hole diameter the holes of the loose-leaf collection to be threaded through. If the retaining means are smaller in cross-section than the hole diameter of the holes of the loose-leaf collection, they can be passed through the holes and the band member attached to them can be threaded through the holes. In the retention position, these restraints lie across the holes in the loose-leaf collection for cohesion.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist das Bandelement bezogen auf die Länge der Rückhaltemittel in einem mittleren Bereich, vorzugsweise in der Mitte, der Rückhaltemittel befestigt. Des weiteren ist die Länge der Rückhaltemittel ausgehend vom Befestigungspunkt des Bandelements kleiner als der Abstand zwischen der Mitte der Löcher der Lose-Blattsammlung und dem nächstgelegenen Papierrand. Dadurch wird vermieden, daß die Rückhaltemittel in der Rückhalteposition über den Papierrand hinausragen.In another preferred embodiment, the band member is fixed in relation to the length of the retaining means in a central region, preferably in the middle, of the retaining means. Furthermore, the length of the retaining means starting from the attachment point of the band member is smaller than the distance between the center of the holes of the loose-leaf collection and the nearest paper edge. This avoids that the retaining means protrude in the retaining position over the paper edge.
Das Bandelement ist elastisch dehnbar. Dadurch kann die Lose-Blattsammlung mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung unter Spannung des Bandelements zusammengehalten werden, wodurch das Verrutschen der zusammengehaltenen Blätter vermindert werden kann.The band element is elastically extensible. Thereby, the loose-leaf collection can be held together with the device according to the invention under tension of the band member, whereby the slipping of the held together leaves can be reduced.
Nach einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist die Länge des Bandelements an den Abstand von zwei Löchern einer Normlochung und/oder an bestimmte Stapelhöhen von zusammenzuhaltenden Lose-Blattsammlungen angepaßt. So kann das Bandelement beispielsweise ein Stück länger gewählt werden als der Abstand von zwei Löchern einer Normlochung zuzüglich der doppelten Stapelhöhe der zusammenzuhaltenden Lose-Blattsammlungen. Dann kann das Bandelement von einem Loch zum anderen und durch beide Löcher hindurchgeführt werden, und an jedem Loch durch ein Rückhalteelement gehalten werden. Durch die größere Länge kann dann noch bequem geblättert werden.According to another advantageous embodiment, the length of the band element is adapted to the distance of two holes of a standard perforation and / or to certain stack heights of loose-leaf collections to be held together. For example, the band element can be selected a little bit longer than the distance of two holes of a standard punch plus twice the stack height of the loose-leaf collections to be held together. Then, the band member can be passed from one hole to the other and through both holes, and held at each hole by a retaining member. Because of the longer length, you can scroll through it comfortably.
Nach einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist das Bandelement im Querschnitt derart flach und/oder dünn und/oder schlank, daß eine mit der Vorrichtung zusammengehaltene Lose-Blattsammlung in einem Aktenordner abheftbar ist, wobei die Löcher, durch die das Bandelement hindurchgefädelt ist, auch für die Abheftung im Aktenordner verwendet werden. So können mit der Vorrichtung gebündelte Lose-Blattsammlungen auf besonders einfache Weise in einen Aktenordner zusammengefaßt werden, und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann auch eine Ordnungsfunktion erfüllen. Diese Ausgestaltung bietet einen zusätzlichen Vorteil gegenüber dem vorbekannten Heftstreifen. Die Löcher, durch die der Metallstreifen des Heftstreifens geführt ist, können nicht mehr zum Abheften im Aktenordner verwendet werden, da der Metallstreifen in der Lochung zuviel Raum einnimmt.According to another preferred embodiment, the band member in cross section is so flat and / or thin and / or slender that a held together with the device loose-leaf collection can be filed in a file folder, the holes through which the band member is threaded through, also for the Stitching can be used in the file folder. Thus, with the device bundled loose-leaf collections can be summarized in a particularly simple manner in a file folder, and the device of the invention can also fulfill a regulatory function. This embodiment offers an additional advantage over the previously known adhesive strip. The holes through which the metal strip of the Heftstreifens is guided, can not be used for filing in the file folder, since the metal strip in the perforation takes up too much space.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung kann das durch die Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgefädelte Bandelement zu einer geschlossenen Bandschlinge geschlossen werden, vorteilhafterweise mittels der Rückhaltemittel. In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung umfassen die Rückhaltemittel zwei Rückhalteelemente, die ihrerseits Verbindungsmittel zum Verbinden der beiden Rückhaltelemente aufweisen. In den beiden vorgenannten Ausgestaltungen kann mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung eine ringförmig geschlossene Endlos-Bandschlinge gebildet werden, die durch mindestens zwei Löcher der gelochten Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgeführt ist und diese so zusammenhält. Dabei kann die Länge des Bandelements so gewählt werden, daß die durch die Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgeführte Bandschlinge bei verbundenen Enden des Bandelements bzw. bei verbundenen Rückhaltemitteln stramm sitzt, so daß die Blätter der zusammengehaltenen Lose-Blattsammlung nur wenig gegeneinander verrutschen können. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn das Bandelement elastisch dehnbar und knapp doppelt so lang ist wie der Abstand zwischen den beiden Löchern zuzüglich der doppelten Stapelhöhe der zusammenzuhaltenden Lose-Blattsammlung. Dann ist das Bandelement bei geschlossener Schlinge gespannt und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung sitzt straff. Beim Öffnen der Schlinge bzw. der Verbindungsmittel entsteht dann eine freie Bandlänge, so daß leicht in der Lose-Blattsammlung geblättert werden kann, ohne daß die Blätter vom Bandelement herunterrutschen, weil sie durch die Rückhaltemittel zurückgehalten werden.In another preferred embodiment, the belt element threaded through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection can be closed to form a closed belt loop, advantageously by means of the retaining means. In another preferred embodiment, the retaining means comprise two retaining elements, which in turn have connecting means for connecting the two retaining elements. In the two aforementioned embodiments, an annular closed endless belt loop can be formed with the device according to the invention, which is passed through at least two holes of the perforated loose-leaf collection and holds them together. In this case, the length of the band member can be chosen so that the guided through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection tape loop at tight ends of the band member or connected to restraint means tightly seated, so that the leaves of the held loose-leaf collection can slip only slightly against each other. It is particularly advantageous if the band element is elastically stretchable and almost twice as long as the distance between the two holes plus twice the stack height of the loose-leaf collection to be held together. Then the band element is tensioned with the loop closed and the device according to the invention is taut. When opening the loop or the connecting means then creates a free tape length, so that easily in the loose-leaf collection can be leafed without the leaves slip off the belt element, because they are retained by the retaining means.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung umfasst Spannmittel zum Spannen des dehnbaren Bandelements, wenn die Vorrichtung an eine Lose-Blattsammlung zum Zusammenhalten derselben angelegt ist. Das dehnbare Bandelement, das durch die Lochung hindurchgefädelt ist, kann mit dem Spannmittel gespannt werden, wenn sich die Rückhaltemittel in einer Rückhalteposition befinden oder anderweitig fixiert sind.The device according to the invention comprises tensioning means for tensioning the stretchable band element when the device is applied to a loose-leaf collection for holding it together. The stretchable band member threaded through the perforation can be tensioned with the tensioning means when the retaining means are in a retention position or otherwise fixed.
Das Spannmittel ist flächig ausgebildet, beispielsweise als starre Platte, insbesondere aus Kunststoff oder Metall, oder als Pappkarte oder als vergleichbares starres und flaches Element. So kann das Spannmittel flach auf der zusammenzuhaltenden Lose-Blattsammlung aufliegen. Das Spannmittel ist derart geformt, daß das Bandelement, wenn die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung an eine Lose-Blattsammlung zum Zusammenhalten derselben angelegt ist, derart über die Flächen und um die Kanten des Spannmittels geführt werden kann, daß das Bandelement auf Spannung gehaltert ist. Bevorzugter Weise ist das Spannmittel kleiner als das Format der Lose-Blattsammlung, z. B. kleiner als das Format DIN-A4. So verbleiben auf der ersten Seite der Lose-Blattsammlung nicht abgedeckte bzw. lesbare Bereiche, auf denen das Spannmittel nicht aufliegt. Durch geeignete Formung des Spannmittels können die nicht abgedeckten Bereiche in Größe und/oder Lage variiert werden. Alternativ oder weiter bevorzugt kann das Spannmittel auch aus einem durchsichtigen oder transparenten oder semi-transparenten Material, z. B. Kunststoff, gebildet sein. Dann ist die erste Seite der Lose-Blattsammlung auch durch das aufliegende Spannmittel hindurch zumindest teilweise sichtbar bzw. erkennbar.The clamping means is formed flat, for example as a rigid plate, in particular of plastic or metal, or as a card or as a comparable rigid and flat element. Thus, the clamping means can rest flat on the held together loose-leaf collection. The tensioning means is shaped such that, when the device of the invention is applied to a loose-leaf collection for holding it together, the strap element can be guided over the surfaces and around the edges of the tensioning means such that the strap element is held in tension. Preferably, the clamping means is smaller than the format of the loose-leaf collection, z. B. smaller than the format DIN-A4. Thus, on the first page of the loose-leaf collection, uncovered or readable areas remain on which the tensioning means does not rest. By suitable shaping of the clamping means, the uncovered areas can be varied in size and / or position. Alternatively or more preferably, the clamping means can also be made of a transparent or transparent or semi-transparent material, for. As plastic, be formed. Then the first side of the loose-leaf collection is at least partially visible or recognizable by the overlying clamping means.
In einer weiter bevorzugten Ausgestaltung weist das Spannmittel eine Lochung auf, die der Lochung entspricht, durch die das Bandelement bei der zusammenzuhaltenden Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgeführt ist. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung können Rückhaltemittel, die durch die Lochung der Lose-Blattsammlung hindurchgesteckt werden können, in einfacher Weise auch durch das Spannmittel hindurchgesteckt werden. Noch weiter vereinfacht werden kann das Einführen des Bandelements in die Löcher des Spannmittels, wenn zwischen den Löchern des Spannmittels und dem Rand des Spannmittels Schlitze ausgebildet sind.In a further preferred embodiment, the clamping means has a perforation corresponding to the perforation, through which the band element is guided in the held together loose-leaf collection. In this embodiment, retaining means which are inserted through the perforation of the loose-leaf collection can be inserted through the clamping means in a simple manner. The insertion of the band element into the holes of the tensioning means can be further simplified if slits are formed between the holes of the tensioning means and the edge of the tensioning means.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung weist das Spannmittel einen Vorsprung und/oder einen Überstand auf, um den das Bandelement herumgelegt werden kann, ohne daß es vom Spannmittel abrutscht. Ein derartiger Vorsprung kann beispielsweise durch einen dreieckigen Ansatz am Spannmittel oder eine Ausbuchtung gebildet sein. Möglich sind auch andere Außenkonturen des Spannmittels, die ein Abrutschen des gespannten Bandelements verhindern, beispielsweise Einkerbungen oder geeignete Ausnehmungen. Möglich sind auch geeignete Schlitzungen im Spannelement, in die das Bandelement zur Halterung und Spannung eingelegt wird.In another preferred embodiment, the clamping means on a projection and / or a supernatant around which the band element can be placed without slipping off of the clamping means. Such a projection can be formed for example by a triangular approach to the clamping means or a bulge. Also possible are other outer contours of the clamping device, which prevent slipping of the tensioned band member, for example notches or suitable recesses. Also possible are suitable slits in the clamping element, in which the band element is inserted for holding and tension.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist das Spannmittel als Registerelement und/oder Schutzdeckel und/oder -rücken und/oder umschlag und/oder beschriftbar ausgebildet. Auf diese Weise kann das Spannmittel Ordnungs- und/oder Schutzfunktionen erfüllen.In another preferred embodiment, the clamping means is designed as a register element and / or protective cover and / or -rück and / or envelope and / or inscribable. In this way, the clamping means can fulfill order and / or protective functions.
Bei der Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung mit Spannmittel kann das Bandelement deutlich länger gewählt werden als der Abstand oder zweifache Abstände der mit dem Bandmittel durchgefädelten Löcher. Mit dem Spannmittel wird dann die Überlänge bzw. freie Länge des Bandelements gespannt, so daß die Lose-Blattsammlung stramm zusammengehalten werden kann, und ein Verrutschen der Blätter gegeneinander weitgehend verhindert werden kann. Länge des Bandelements und Geometrie des Spannmittels können auch so aufeinander abgestimmt werden, daß die Spannung des Bandelements bei einer zusammengehaltenen Lose-Blattsammlung so schwach ist, daß noch in der Lose-Blattsammlung geblättert werden kann, und zwar in einer Weise, daß die volle Seite sichtbar ist bzw. kein Heftrand verbleibt. Dabei wird durch die entsprechend lange Ausbildung des Bandelements vermieden, daß dieses bei vollständigem Aufblättern die Elastizitätsgrenze erreicht. Die Ausgestaltung mit Spannmittel und großer Länge des Bandelements erlaubt ferner eine vergleichsweise große Variabilität der Stapelhöhe bzw. Dicke der Lose-Blattsammlung. Bei geeigneter Ausbildung der Vorrichtung mit Spannmittel können mit ein und derselben Länge des Bandelements 5 bis 300 Blatt normales Schreibmaschinenpapier gut zusammengehalten werden.In the embodiment of the device according to the invention with clamping means, the band element can be chosen to be significantly longer than the distance or twice the distance of the holes durchgefädelten with the tape means. With the clamping means, the excess length or free length of the band member is then stretched, so that the loose-leaf collection can be held tight together, and slipping of the sheets against each other can be largely prevented. Length of the band member and geometry of the clamping means can also be coordinated so that the tension of the band member is so weak at a held loose-leaf collection that can still be browsed in the loose-leaf collection, in such a way that the full page is visible or no binding margin remains. It is avoided by the correspondingly long training of the band member that this is completely flattening the elastic limit reached. The design with clamping means and long length of the band member further allows a comparatively large variability of the stack height or thickness of the loose-leaf collection. With a suitable design of the device with clamping means can be kept well together with one and the same length of the band member 5 to 300 sheets of normal typewriter paper.
Bei einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung weist das Spannmittel federnde Elemente auf, in die das Bandelement eingehängt und auf Zug gehalten werden kann. Vorzugsweise können die federnden Elemente schneckenartig ausgebildet sein und Ausnehmungen und/oder Schlitze aufweisen, in die das Bandelement eingelegt und dort mit den Rückhaltemitteln gehalten wird. Auch in dieser Ausgestaltung ist eine Spannung des Bandelements und ein strammes Zusammenhalten der Lose-Blattsammlung möglich, und zwar auch mit einem nicht dehnbaren Bandelement.In another preferred embodiment, the clamping means on resilient elements, in which the band element can be hung and held on train. Preferably, the resilient elements may be helical and have recesses and / or slots, in which the band element is inserted and held there with the retaining means. Also in this embodiment, a tension of the band member and a tight holding the loose-leaf collection is possible, even with a non-stretchable band member.
Vorteilhafterweise ist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung aus unweltfreundlichen Materialien hergestellt und/oder aus Materialien hergestellt, die schredderbar sind, so daß eine Entfernung vor dem Schreddern des zusammengehaltenen Papiers nicht erforderlich ist.Advantageously, the device according to the invention is made of environmentally friendly materials and / or made of materials which are shredderable, so that removal prior to shredding the held-together paper is not required.
