FIG. 15 shows still another embodiment. In this embodiment, instead of using a memory stick,
Headline information edited and created by the external editing device 30 is transferred to the display device 12 by the communication means. That is, the storage unit 43 and the control unit 22 are provided on the display device 12 side.
A communication unit 46 connected to the storage unit 49 is provided on the external editing device 30 side. The communication unit 50 allows the information editing unit 3
The heading information edited and created in step 1 is transferred to the display device 12. Here, the supply of power to the display device 12 is performed by a pair of coils 47 and 48.
That is, the coil 47 on the display device 12 side and the coil 48 on the fixed side are magnetically coupled to each other, and power is supplied by the principle of a transformer. Therefore, power can be supplied in a non-contact manner.

FIG. 6 shows an example of creating heading information including a title. The editing and creation of the heading information is performed by the information editing unit 31 of the external editing device 30 shown in FIGS.
The format for creating the heading information in the external editing device 30 may be, for example, in a text format. In this case, the constituent characters shown in FIG. 6 and the identification character ":" are arranged at the head of each line. For example, on the first line, “Title:” is set so that each item can be distinguished. Then, the created information is transmitted from the information editing unit 31 to the MS drive 32 shown in FIG. 3 and FIG.
Written in 6. In the case of the configuration shown in FIG. 5, the heading information created by the information editing unit 31 is transmitted to the storage unit 49,
It is transmitted to the display device 12 via the communication unit 50. When editing the heading information, the memory stick 16
Alternatively, the index information written in the storage unit 49 is read and edited and updated or corrected by the information editing unit 31.
Then, the edited contents are written into the memory stick 16 again or the storage unit 49.

Next, a method of using such a filing display device will be described. An operation to turn on the display is input by an operation input unit 38 including a push button of the display instruction unit 36 shown in FIGS. 3 to 5. Then, this information is transmitted by the control unit 37 via the communication unit 39. Then, this information is received by the communication unit 24 of the display device 12. Then, the display device 12 reads the content of the memory stick 16 shown in FIG. 3 by the control unit 22 or the content of the storage unit 43 shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. Then, the read heading information is displayed as a title on the display unit 13. Display unit 13
Is displayed on the operation input unit 38 of the display instruction unit 36.
The heading information is sequentially switched and displayed by the operation of. When the user inputs an OFF operation of the operation input unit 38 of the display instruction unit 36 or when a certain time has elapsed, the display panel 13 of the display device 12 is switched off. This ends a series of display operations.

Next, another embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In this embodiment, the display units 12 of a plurality of binders 10 are always connected in parallel with a common external editing device 30,
The transfer of information is identified by the identification means provided to the display device 12 of each binder 10 in advance.

As shown in FIG. 9, the external editing device 30
The CPU 56 is connected to the MS drive 32. The MS drive 32 writes a signal to the memory stick 16 and reads a signal. The CPU 56 includes a communication unit 57, and is constantly connected to the display device 12 of each binder 10 via the communication unit 57. To make such a connection possible,
As shown in FIG. 8, a communication electrode 53 is provided at a substantially central position between the pair of electrodes 17 at the lower end of the back portion 11 of the binder 10,
The communication electrode 53 is brought into contact with the fixed communication electrode 54. Thus, the external editing device 30 and the display device 12 of each binder 10 are always connected.

As shown in FIG. 9, all the binders 10 have a display device 12 including a waveform shaping buffer 58, a CPU 59, a storage unit 43, and a display panel 13. In particular, the feature here is that the identification information is set in advance in the CPU 59 of each binder 10 and the signal transfer is selected by setting such identification information.

When the heading information is transferred from the communication means 57 of the external editing apparatus 30 to each CPU 59 of the binder 10, identification information is added prior to the heading information. Therefore, this identification information is stored in each C of the binder 10.
PU 59 detects. The CPU 59 responds only when the identification information matches the own identification information, and the display device 12 takes in the heading information and displays it on the display unit 13. According to such a configuration, data can be selectively transferred to the display device 12 of each binder 10 by software, and there is an advantage that the hardware configuration can be simplified.

Although the embodiments of the present invention included in the present application have been described with reference to the drawings, the invention included in the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and is within the technical idea of the present invention. Various changes are possible with. For example, if the binders 10 pass in front of the bookshelves in which the binders 10 are arranged, the display devices 12 of all the binders 10 may perform the display operation at the same time. Alternatively, the display devices 12 of all the binders 10 may perform the display when the door of the archive is opened.
