(Shown in FIG. 5).
Further, the base 12 is adjacent to the comb holding hole area 22, extends in the length direction on the opposite side of the comb holding body 14, and is adjacent to the comb locking area 24. An adhering region 26 for welding the binding tool 10 to the file cover 50 is provided in the vicinity of the longitudinal edge opposite to the comb holder 14 (shown in FIG. 5).

The comb holding body 14 is a rectangular plate continuously connected to the longitudinal edge of the binding margin region 20 of the base 12 so as to extend in the length direction of the base 12 via a bent portion 28.
A bent portion 28 formed between the comb holding body 14 and the binding margin region 20 of the base 12 is located at the boundary between the base 12 and the comb holding body 14 connected to each other and from the upper end to the lower end of the comb holding body 14 and the base 12. It is a linear dent strip provided continuously from the surface toward the opposite side surface.
The comb holder 14 can be raised at the bent portion 28 until it forms an angle of approximately 90 ° with the base body 12, and at the position where the comb holder 14 is raised, the comb body 16 has the comb of the base body 12. It is configured to curve toward the holding hole 18. The part where the comb body 16 of the comb holding body 14 is not formed is a substantially straight line parallel to the bent portion 28, and is formed so that the bound note 60 can be stably placed thereon.

The comb body 16 has a length suitable for binding the note 60 by reaching the comb holding hole 18 beyond the binding margin area 20 when the comb holder 14 is raised, and a width suitable for being inserted into the binding hole 62 of the note 60. And. The comb body 16 is spaced apart from the base body 12 on the side opposite to the base body 12 with an interval corresponding to the interval between the binding holes 62 of the note 60 bound to the edge facing the bent portion 28 of the comb holder 14. It is a tongue-like piece having a substantially U-shape in a plan view and is provided so as to protrude in a direction orthogonal to the length direction of the comb holder 14, and has a curved region 16 a on the side of the comb holder 14 and a tip region 16 b subsequent thereto. .
The comb body 16 is formed at a symmetrical position with respect to the center in the longitudinal direction of the comb holding body 14, and the comb body 16 is formed from a position inside the left and right end edges of the comb holding body 14. 26 lines are arranged side by side from left to right.

  The comb body 16 has side edges on both sides that are linear and a tip edge that is substantially circular in plan view, and is inserted and held in the comb holding hole 18. The bent portion 16c extends in the width direction on the back surface side of the comb body 16 at the boundary between the curved region 16a and the tip region 16b of the comb body 16 so as to be substantially along the back surface side of the base body 12 when inserted into the holding hole 18. , And is formed continuously from the right edge to the left edge. The bent portion 16 c is formed of a linear recess provided on the back side of the comb body 16.

The shape of the comb holding hole 18 is such that the straight inlet edge 18a orthogonal to the left and right end edges in the longitudinal direction of the comb body 16, and the left and right end edges of the comb body 16 toward the direction away from the comb body 16 from the inlet edge 18a. A straight left end edge 18b and a straight right end edge 18c extending in parallel, and a locking edge 18d having a substantially circular shape in plan view extending in a direction away from the comb body 16 from the tips of the left end edge 18b and the right end edge 18c.
The comb locking region 24 of the base 12 is formed between the end edge of the locking edge 18d of the comb holding hole 18 and the fixing region 26. In this embodiment, the tip of the comb body 16 is more distal than the bent portion 16c. The region 16b has a sufficient width to enter the outside of the locking edge 18d (the longitudinal edge side opposite to the comb holder 14) and is formed so as to extend in a strip shape in the longitudinal direction of the base 12. .
The fixing region 26 of the base 12 is formed between the longitudinal end edge of the base 12 opposite to the comb holding body 14 along the comb locking region 24 adjacent to the comb locking region 24. Affixed to the cover 50.
Thus, since the tip region 16b of the comb body 16 enters and is held in a small gap between the comb locking region 24 of the base 12 and the file cover 50, the comb body 16 is combed by the comb locking region 24 of the base 12. There is little risk of getting out of the side.

In this embodiment, the binding tool 10 is placed on the back side near the longitudinal edge of the base 12 opposite to the comb holder 14, that is, on the back side of the fixing area 26, near the spine portion of the file cover 50. It is welded and fixed.
The portion of the file cover 50 to which the binding tool 10 is attached is a comb inserted between the portion near the edge of the comb holding hole 18 (the back surface of the base 12) for holding the vicinity of the tip of the comb body 16. A pressing body for pressing the distal end region 16b of the body 16 is configured.

In manufacturing the binding tool 10, first, an elastic synthetic resin plate body such as polypropylene constituting the binding tool 10 is prepared, and the base body 12, the comb holding body 14, the comb body 16 and the comb holding hole 18 are punched. A Thomson blade on which a blade is formed is punched at a time to be formed into a predetermined shape.
Then, a file having the binding tool 10 is created by fixing the base 12 at a predetermined position of the file cover 50 by an adhesion method such as welding by a thermal fusion method such as a high frequency sealing method or an ultrasonic sealing method. be able to.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be variously modified.
In the embodiment, the locking hole when inserting the comb body 16 to lock the comb holding hole 18 and the punching hole when removing the comb body 16 from the comb holding hole 18 are configured by one hole. However, a locking hole for locking the comb holding hole 18 to the comb body 16 and a punching hole which is a hole for removing the comb body 16 from the comb holding hole 18 may be formed separately.

For example, in the comb holding hole 118 of the binding tool 110 shown in FIG. 8, a locking hole 130 is formed on the extension line in the longitudinal direction of the comb body 116 in the comb holding hole region 122 extending in the central longitudinal direction of the base body 112. A hole 132 is continuously formed in the outward direction.
That is, the locking hole 130 is directed in the width direction of the comb body 116 in the direction away from the comb body 116 from the entrance edge 118a having a length more than twice the width of the comb body 116 and the right end portion of the entrance edge 118a. The right end edge 118c is formed in parallel with the right end edge of the comb body 116, and the locking edge 118d extends in the width direction of the comb body 116 from the front end of the right end edge 118c. The outer edge of the locking edge 118d, that is, the side away from the comb holding body 114 constitutes a comb locking area 124, is adjacent to the comb locking area 124, and is a longitudinal edge on the opposite side of the base 112 from the comb holding body 114. In the vicinity, a fixing region 126 for welding the binding tool 110 to the file cover 150 is formed.

The punching hole 132 extends from the left end of the entrance edge 118a in the longitudinal direction of the comb body 116 and toward the direction away from the comb body 116 from the central end of the locking edge 118d of the locking hole 130. The extending right end edge 118e extends, and the left end edge 118b and the extracted right end edge 118e are formed with a extracting edge 118f connecting the leading ends.
When the comb body 116 is inserted into the comb holding hole 118 and locked, the comb holding body 114 protrudes from the comb holding body 114 so that the curved region 116a and the tip region 116b extend linearly toward the locking hole 130. When the body 116 is pulled out from the comb holding hole 118, the comb body is extended from the punch hole 132 extending long in the direction away from the comb body 116 by shifting the note 60 bound to the comb body 116 toward the punch hole 132. It is comprised so that 116 can be extracted easily.

  The other configurations are the same as those of the binding tool 10 shown in FIG. 1, and the comb holder 114 is continuously provided via the bending portion 128 by the binding margin region 120 of the base body 112, and the comb body 116 is a curved region. A bent portion 116c is formed at the boundary between 116a and the tip region 116b.
