Description
A FOLDER WITH COMBINED STATIONERY PLUG-IN STRIP
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a folder, and more particularly to an innovative one which is designed with combined stationery plug-in strip.
2. Description of Related Art
Folder is a most commonly used stationery device for collecting files such as: sheets, forms, catalogues and business cards.
A typical folder structure is designed mainly for accommodating files, and then developed for positioning a wide array of files. From the perspective of users, the files are often carried together with other auxiliary tools such as: pen/pencils, rubbers, knives and staplers, however, their pick and place features are not considered in the design, or designed very simply without flexibility.
Thus, to overcome the aforementioned problems of the prior art, it would be an advancement if the art to provide an improved structure that can significantly improve the efficacy.
Therefore, the inventor has provided the present invention of practicability after deliberate design and evaluation based on years of experience in the production, development and design of related products.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Based upon an innovative design that the stationery plug-in strip is assembled onto the folder body, the folder of the present invention can also accommodate other stationery products; and, the stationery plug-in strip can be taken out and folded into a 3D casing with higher flexibility; moreover, the users are allowed for convenient pick& place, thus improving greatly the functionality and added value of folder with higher
applicability.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 shows an assembled perspective view of folder of the present invention.
FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of stationery plug-in strip of the present invention, which is taken out of the folder.
FIG. 3 shows a general view of stationery plug-in strip of the present invention, which is folded into a 3D casing.
Fig. 4 shows a reference view of stationery plug-in strip of the present invention for accommodating pens or pencils.
FIG. 5 shows another preferred embodiment of combined locating portion of the present invention.
FIG. 6 shows another preferred embodiment of stationery plug-in portion of the present invention.
FIG. 7 shows another preferred embodiment of combined locating portion of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The features and the advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIGS. l-2 depict preferred embodiments of folder structure with combined stationery plug-in strip, which, however, are provided for only explanatory objective for patent claims. Said folder 05 comprising: a folder body 10, which comprises at least two foldable covers 11, 12, between which a file accommodating portion 13 is defined; a combined locating portion 14 is shaped at a preset location of folder body 10; an extended sheet 15 is formed laterally onto cover 11 of the folder body 10, 50 that the combined locating portion 14 can be assembled onto the surface of extended sheet 15; a stationery plug-in strip 20, which is assembled onto combined locating portion 14 of the folder body 10; said stationery plug-in strip 20 shall be a long sheet which is arranged at interval with two foldable portions 21 (straight folding); with the foldable portion 21, the stationery plug-in strip 20 can be folded into a 3D triangular casing (shown in FIG. 3); a locating portion (to be described hereunder) is placed at both ends of the stationery plug-in strip 20 to position this triangular casing, and a preset quantity of stationery plug-in portions 22 are assembled laterally onto the stationery plug-in strip 20.
The preferred embodiment of combined locating portion 14 of said folder body 10 is a pocket space as illustrated in FIG. 2, wherein the stationery plug-in strip 20 can be positioned securely; or referring to FIG. 5, the combined locating portion 14B is an adhesive tape 23, which is placed at one side of the stationery plug-in strip 20, thus enabling the stationery plug-in strip 20 to be assembled and positioned; moreover, the combined locating portion 14 has other application mechanisms such as: fasteners and magnetic bodies.
The preferred embodiment of locating portion arranged at both ends of the stationery plug-in strip 20 is shown in FIG. 2, wherein an inserting sheet 24 and a hole 25 are oppositely arranged at both ends of the stationery plug-in strip 20; thus, when the stationery plug-in strip 20 is folded into a 3D casing, both ends are adapted and the inserting sheet 24 can be inserted into the hole 25 for positioning purpose; moreover, said locating portion allows for positioning by coupling the adhesive tape, fasteners and magnetic bodies.
The stationery plug-in portion 22 of the stationery plug-in strip 20 is formed by adapting a flexible strap onto one surface of stationery plug-in strip 20 in the form of continuous U-shaped profile; the through-hole location of said U-shaped profile is shown in FIG. 4, wherein the aperture can be designed to fit the existing pens or pencils or ballpoint pens; referring also to FIG. 6, the stationery plug-in portion 22 can also be designed into multiple apertures for accommodating various stationery (e.g. pens/pencils, rubbers, knives and staplers) Based upon above-specified structural design, the present invention is operated as follows: Referring to FIG. 1, the stationery plug-in strip 20 could be placed into the combined locating portion 14 of the folder body 10, allowing for convenient management and handling of files and stationery; When you intend to use the stationery, you can place the stationery plug-in strip on the table in an unfolded state, or place directly on the folder body 10; furthermore, referring to FIG. 2, the stationery plug-in strip 20 can be taken out from the folder body 10, and then folded into a 3D casing (shown in FIG. 3) . Thus, the users could arrange the stationery plug-in strip 20 vertically on the table for convenient application.
FIG. 7 depicts another preferred embodiment of the combined locating portion 14, which is assembled at inner side of the cover 11 of folder body 10, thus eliminating the need of aforementioned extended sheet 15.
