An operating force for rotating the base 33 of the binding body 35 by inserting the binding body 35 can also be applied, whereby the entire rotation operation of the binding body 35 can be smoothly performed.

Also, the first and second pockets 45,
An object such as a photograph having no binding hole can be stored in the object 46. Further, since the cover 13 is a translucent resin sheet, the object to be stored can be seen through. Further, the hooks 30 and the hook receivers 50 constituting the regulating member are fitted in a state in which the first and second covers 17, 18 are folded so as to overlap on the inner surface side of the intermediate cover 14, so that the cover is formed. The opening control of the body 11 is performed, and therefore, even when the binding amount increases, the opening of the cover 11 is reliably controlled. In the object having a size such as the clear pocket P, substantially half the area is located in the plane of the intermediate cover 14, and the remaining substantially half area is located in the plane of the second cover 18. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 2, when the cover 11 is folded, the second cover 18 is positioned outside the first cover 17 so that the clear pocket P is less likely to be folded. Act like so. Moreover, even if the binding is performed using the two binding holes P1 on one side of the four binding holes P1 of the clear pocket P, the end region on the binding hole P1 side where the binding feet 34 are not inserted is in the second pocket 46. , The fluttering of the clear pocket P is also prevented.

Therefore, according to such an embodiment, the cover body 11 is formed such that the area other than the inner side of the intermediate cover 14 is the cover 1.
3, the cover body 11 can be effectively prevented from being damaged, and a storage mode using a pocket can be adopted.

In the above embodiment, the case where the cover 11 is constituted by the intermediate cover 14 and the first and second covers 17, 18 has been shown and described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the intermediate cover 14 may be omitted to form a pair of front and back cover structures. Even in this case, the cover may have a cover shape capable of forming a pocket on the inner surface side of each cover.

Further, the mounting position of the binding body 35 is not limited to the intermediate cover 14, but may be mounted on the first or second cover 17,18. Also, base 3
3 may be provided on the inner surface side of the cover 11. In this case, the through holes 25 through which the binding feet 34 pass can be omitted.

[0029]

As described above, according to the present invention,
A cover is provided on the cover body to form a pocket on the inner surface side of the cover body, so that the cover body can be protected from damage, dirt, etc., and an object without a binding hole is stored in the pocket. It is possible to do.

Further, since at least a part of the binding body is located on the outer surface of the cover and a part of the binding body located on the outer surface is covered by the cover, the outer surface of the cover is covered with the cover. Even if a part of the binding tool is located, there is no inconvenience that the binding tool is caught by another binding tool.

Further, the base is covered with a cover in a state where the base is rotatably supported on the outer surface side of the cover body, and the binding leg can penetrate the cover body and the leading end side can be hooked on a part of the cover body. , Forming a closed loop, so that even if the base is located outside the cover body, the base is covered by the cover, so that it is possible to prevent the base from being caught by other objects. In addition to this, it is possible to avoid the possibility of damaging the desk or the like by the base.

Further, since the area where the notch formed at the end of the cover body and the binding area of the binding foot are covered by the cover, the binding tool can be mounted close to the end of the cover body. It is also possible to prevent a situation where the binding state between the binding foot and the notch forming edge is inadvertently released.

Further, the cover is constituted by an outer cover positioned outside the intermediate cover, the first and second covers, and an inner cover covering the inner surfaces of the first and second covers. Can be increased. In addition, with the configuration in which the first and second covers are provided with the regulating members, it is possible to prevent unintended development when the binding thickness of the file increases.

Further, according to the configuration in which the punching window is formed in the outer cover portion, the operation for rotating the base can be performed from the outer cover side.
