DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an attachment detachably attached to a rear portion of a holding body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Hitherto, a mascot has been commercialized, for example, by attaching a mascot by means of a metal part attached to the rear portion of a clip, or by connecting two clips in a similar manner.

In order to quickly find a desired document from among the stacked documents, a label seal is attached to the back portion of a so-called "double clip" or the like, and the name of the document is written. Such methods are widely used.

[0004]

Conventionally, mascots have been commercialized, such as by attaching a mascot by means of a metal part attached to the rear of a clip or by connecting two clips in a similar manner. It is important to keep the completed state, and basically, it was not possible to separate the various parts mounted on the rear part of the clip.

In order to quickly find a desired document from the stacked documents, a label sticker is attached to the back of a so-called "double clip" or the like, and the name of the document is written. Although it is widely used, it is troublesome to remove the label seal when you want to use the clip for another purpose.

[0006] Due to the recent improvement in the performance of computers and the like, the main body of the method of storing fixed documents such as customer information and various daily reports is shifting from conventional large files to hard disks and various recording media. On the other hand, due to the fact that the creation of documents has become easier, the number of informal documents and miscellaneous documents that cannot be organized well by the conventional classification method using specific keywords has increased in modern offices.

As an effective method of organizing these documents, in recent years, Mr. Yukio Noguchi views information as a flow,
A method is proposed in which a fixed amount of documents are arranged along the time axis without sorting by keywords, and documents with low access frequency are naturally pushed to the back by always placing documents with high access frequency at the front. Have been.

[0008] This sorting method with a view to disposal of unnecessary documents has been supported by many businessmen suffering from a pile of documents (see "Super" sorting method-Chuko Shinsho-). Noguchi recommends a method of storing documents in envelopes, and suggests preparing a large number of used square second envelopes, which is difficult for many businessmen, and in fact, so-called "double Many people use clips. In a business situation, there may be a large number of documents related to one processing case, but the amount that a normal-sized clip can hold is less than the holding capacity of a square No. 2 envelope. As a method of binding a large amount of documents without making a hole, it is common to use a large eyeball clip or double clip, or to use a Z-type file, but if these bindings are directly upsized, they will be somewhat large In that case, the spring becomes very strong and it becomes difficult to handle. Further, in the case of binding without forming a hole, there is a disadvantage that the holding force from the holding plate is dispersed as the thickness of the document increases, and the closer to the center, the more easily the falling-off occurs. Therefore, a method of freely grouping a plurality of clips according to the needs at each time is considered to be effective, but there has been no product suitable for such a use method.

An object of the present invention is to provide an attachment which can be freely attached to and detached from a rear portion of a clip according to needs of a user, and a method of using the attachment.

The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will become more completely apparent when the following description is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the drawings are for explanation only, and do not limit the technical scope of the present invention.
