Description

  The present invention relates to, for example, a paper piece binder ring that allows a paper piece on which calendar information is printed to be connected together with a mount and can be swung with a finger, and a desk calendar and a flip-type desk book using the paper piece binder ring. It is.

  Conventionally, as a paper piece binder ring, for example, there is one used for a binder-type notebook. This ring for paper binder is roughly composed of a large number of ring members that can be opened and closed through a large number of holes formed in the paper piece, and the ring members can be opened and closed by operating the open / close holes formed at both ends. And those that open and close each ring member with the fingers of the user are commercially available.

  However, in the conventional paper piece binder ring described above, since each ring member has a circular cross section, each paper piece is often torn from each opening position due to external force acting on the paper piece. A large number of ring members must be components. In addition, the conventional paper piece binder ring, especially the paper piece binder ring provided with opening / closing holes formed at both ends, is made of metal and has a complicated structure, so high cost is inevitable. . Also, in a conventional paper piece binder ring made of resin, a large number of ring members are connected to each other by a rotation shaft on the reference side so that the large number of ring members can be opened and closed simultaneously. Since many ring members are connected by connecting members, the manufacturing cost is also high and the risk of breakage is also high.

  Therefore, the present invention has been proposed in order to solve the problems of the conventional paper piece binder ring described above, and there is a risk that the paper piece is easily torn even when an external force is applied to the paper piece. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel binder for paper pieces that can be manufactured at a very low cost (without using a machine) and that can effectively prevent the risk of breakage. Is.

  The present invention has been proposed to achieve the above-mentioned object, and the present invention (the invention described in claim 1) relates to a ring for paper piece binder, and is inserted into an opening formed in the paper piece. And a ring for paper piece binder provided with an opening to which the end portions of two ring members whose side shapes are formed in an O-shape (substantially oval) are locked. The ring member is made of resin. The ring member has a width in the axial direction of each ring member, and is elastically deformable in a direction in which opposed end portions and end portions are separated from each other. An inclined surface that guides in a direction away from each other is formed, and the concave portion and the convex portion are formed on an extension line of the inclined surface.

  In the first aspect of the invention, the ring member needs to have a side shape shaped like a circle (substantially oval). The ring member constituting the present invention has one end and the other end facing each other. It may be said that it is molded. In addition, this ring member is integrally formed of resin and needs to have a width in the axial direction of each ring member, and this width is preferably an ellipse having a length of about 10 mm and a width of 14 mm. . Depending on the thickness of the piece of paper and the distance between the opening and the end formed on each piece of paper, if it is shorter than 10 mm, there is a risk of tearing off the piece of paper when an external force is applied to the piece of paper, On the other hand, when it exceeds 14 mm, depending on the material and thickness of each ring member, it is necessary to require a large force from the operator when attaching or removing the ring as described below. In many cases, the paper pieces bound by the ring member have the same shape, and in order to avoid a large number of bound paper pieces from being in an irregular state, the size of the opening formed in each paper piece is large. Naturally, the material and the position of the ring member are required to be uniform. This is because, when the ring member is made of a soft material, it easily falls off. Therefore, the material of the ring member should be a hard resin such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate, polystyrene, polypropylene, etc. On the other hand, as explained below, the material of the ring member is It is also necessary to consider that the elastic members should be elastically deformed to some extent so that the ends of the ring members are separated from each other at the time of removal. Therefore, from this point of view, the width of the ring member is more preferably an ellipse having a length of 10 mm and a width of 14 mm.

  Further, the ring for paper binder according to the present invention, the ring member is inserted into the opening formed in the paper piece, and in this state, the recesses formed on both sides of the ring and the ends of the protrusions are locked, It is attached by. When the ring members are mounted, the end portions and the end portions of the ring members are pressed against each other by pressing in the direction in which the end portions and the end portions of the ring members are brought into contact with the concave portions and the convex portions as they are. By being elastically deformed so as to be separated from each other and further pressed, the other end is accommodated in the recess. On the other hand, the ring member can be removed by spreading it with fingers so that the end portions of the ring member are separated from each other.

  Moreover, 2nd invention (invention of Claim 3) concerns on a desktop calendar, Comprising: The ring for paper piece binders of the said Claim 1 or 2 and paperboard (thick paper) are bent. A mount having an opening through which the ring member is inserted, and a calendar information on a front surface selectively formed on the front side of the mount in which an opening through which the ring member is inserted is formed. And a plurality of pieces of paper printed on.

  The desk calendar according to the third invention is a desk calendar in which a plurality of pieces of paper printed with calendar information such as date and day of the week are bound together with the paper piece binder ring, and the back side from the front side of the mount. One or more days or months can be changed by speaking to the side. In other words, the calendar information printed on a piece of paper may be not only the first-time information and one-month information as in the case of the sun, but also one-week information and several-month information.

  A third invention (invention according to claim 4) relates to a flip-type desktop book set, and is formed by folding the paper binder ring according to claim 1 or 2 and having a side shape. Is formed in a substantially triangular shape and has an opening through which the ring member is inserted, and calendar information, address information, telephone information, e-mail address information, etc. are formed on the front surface through which the ring member is inserted. And a plurality of paper pieces formed as printing surfaces or recording surfaces on which the above information is printed.

  In addition, the multiple pieces of paper that make up this flip-type desktop book set are printed or recorded on the front side (printable on the back side) such as calendar information, address information, telephone information, and email address information. In addition to the information exemplified above, it has a printing surface for printing arbitrary information by the user such as name, season, season information, humorous or festival information, etc. Anything is fine. In addition, in the case of the printing surface of the paper pieces constituting this flip-type desktop book set, printing on each printing surface may use a commercially available printer connected to a personal computer. Therefore, in consideration of using a commercially available printer, it is preferable that the paper pieces constituting the flip-type desktop book set are formed in a size and thickness within the range of specifications (performance) of a commercially available printer.

  In the first invention (the invention described in claim 1), the ring member is integrally formed of resin, has a width in the axial direction of each ring member, and the opposite end and end are mutually Because it can be elastically deformed in the separating direction, it can be manufactured at a lower cost (without using a machine) than the conventional paper piece binder ring, and when an external force is applied to the paper piece. Even so, it is possible to effectively prevent the risk of each piece of paper being torn, and to effectively prevent the risk of breakage. Further, in the first invention, the concave and convex portions are formed in the direction in which the end portion and the end portion of the ring member are separated from each other, and the ring member can be easily mounted.

  Further, according to the second invention (the invention described in claim 3), a plurality of paper pieces on which calendar information is printed by the paper piece binder ring according to the first or second invention are also temporarily provided. Since it is possible to remove the binder after binding with the binder for the paper piece, not only can the already bound paper piece be replaced with another piece of paper, but also a new printer is added to the paper piece using a normal printer. Additional information can be printed. That is, as shown in FIG. 5, the conventional desktop calendar 100 includes a base sheet 101, a large number of paper pieces 102 on which calendar information is printed, and a binder 103 that binds the base paper 101 and the paper pieces 102. The binder 103 is attached by a special device, and once it is attached by the device, it is impossible to remove the mount 101 and the paper piece 102 later. In the case of additionally printing information such as the company name and contact information of a business partner, there is no method other than by screen printing, and not only the printing accuracy is lowered but also an increase in cost is unavoidable. According to the desk calendar according to the third aspect of the present invention, even after mass production, it becomes possible to easily perform additional printing on each piece of paper using a normal printer.

  Further, according to the third invention (the invention described in claim 4), information that the user thinks freely can be printed on each piece of paper or recorded and used. In particular, since personal computers and software have become widespread in recent years, various types of information can be easily printed at home and workplace without handwriting as before. According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, it is possible to create a flip-type desktop book that is extremely clear and has the intended use in a short time.

  Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, the desk calendar using the binder for paper pieces according to the present invention will be described in detail.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the desk calendar 1 according to this embodiment is composed of a plurality of paper pieces 5 and 6 on which paper-piece binder rings 2 and 3 and a mount 4 are printed. The paper piece binder ring members 2 and 3 are integrally formed of PP (polypropylene), and one end and the other end of the ring member 2a and the ring member 2b facing each other are formed later. A fusion recess and projection formed at the center of one end and the other end of the other ring member 3a and the ring member 3b facing each other, formed by fusion with the fusion recess and projection formed at the center. It is formed by fusing to the part.

  The one and the other ring members 2 and 3 have the same shape and are integrally formed of polyethylene resin, and the side surface shape is formed into an O-shape (substantially oval). ing. Fusion figure parts 2a, 2b, (3a, 3b) are formed. In the inter-fusion portions 2a, 2b, locking portions 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f, (3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) to be inserted and locked are formed. The one and the other ring members 2 and 3 are formed into an ellipse having a width of about 14 mm, and can be elastically deformed in directions in which the end portions are separated from each other by the user's fingers.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the mount 4 is bent by first to third bent portions 4a, 4b, and 4c in which rectangular paperboards (thick papers) are made parallel to each other. It is formed by bending so that the end is substantially at the same position, and the side surface shape is formed in a slightly triangular shape. In addition, rectangular openings 4 a and 4 d through which the one ring member 2 or the other ring member 3 is inserted are formed on one end side and the other end side (not shown) of the mount 4, respectively.
The mount 4 uses paperboard (thick paper) and is not printed as described above in order to stabilize the binder and calendar in a triangular shape.

  Further, as described above, each of the plurality of paper pieces 5 is a rectangular paper piece on which calendar information is printed on the front surface (or can be printed on the back surface), and the front surface 4f of the mount 4 formed in a rectangular shape or the like. When the bottom of the back surface 4g is shaped to be 20 mm narrower and bound together with the mount 4 by the paper piece binder rings 2, 3, it is particularly important to emphasize that the paper piece 6 is 20 mm wider than the other paper pieces 5, It is the same size as the mount 4 and is formed so that there is a portion (20 mm) located at the bottom of the paper piece 5 and exposed from the paper piece 5. This space is suitable for printing information such as the name of the company to whom the desktop calendar 1 is delivered and the contact information of the product name, and is printed on all the paper pieces 5 in one binder and calendar. Even if you don't have it, if you print only on a piece of paper 6, you can see the company name and product name of the other party mentioned above throughout the year. In addition, on the left and right of the upper end side of the paper piece 5 and the paper piece 6, the openings 5a and 5b (6a, 6a, 6a, 6a, 6b) are in positions corresponding to the openings 4d and 4e formed on the mount 4 and have the same shape. 6b) is formed respectively.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, when assembling each disassembled part (symbol is omitted) to complete the desk calendar 1, first, the openings 5a formed in the above-mentioned many pieces of paper 5 (6). (6a) 5b (6b) is inserted into the one or the other ring member 2 or 3 and through the openings 4d or 4e formed in the mount 4 so that the one or the other ring member 2 or 3 is inserted. These end portions and end portions press each one or the other ring members 2 and 3. Then, the end portions and the end portions of the one or other ring members 2 and 3 eventually, as shown in FIG. 3, are the locking portions 2a formed on each one or the other ring member 2 (3), 2b is fused to the fusion concave portion and the convex portions 2c, 2d, (3c, 3d) formed in one or the other ring member.

  Therefore, according to the desktop calendar 1 described above, since a large number of paper pieces 5 and 6 are bound by the paper piece binder rings 2 and 3 described above, the paper pieces 5 and 6 can be easily removed even after assembling. Additional printing can be easily performed. Further, since the paper binder binder rings 2 and 3 constituting the desk calendar 1 are composed of one and the other ring members 2 and 3, they are manufactured at a lower cost than the conventional paper binder. In addition, the one and the other ring members 2 and 3 have a width in the axial direction. Therefore, an external force is applied to a large number of paper pieces 5 and 6 on which the above-described calendar information is described. Even if it works, it can be effectively prevented from being easily broken.

  Next, the flip-type desktop book set 1 having the above-mentioned binder rings 2 and 3 for paper pieces as constituent elements will be briefly described with reference to the drawings.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the flip-type desktop book set 1 is composed of paper binder rings 2 and 3, a mount 4, and a large number of paper pieces 5 and 6. It is housed in. The paper piece binder rings 2 and 3 have the same configuration as the paper piece binder rings 2 and 3 constituting the desktop calendar 1 and are formed of two ring members 2 and 3. The mount 4 has openings 4a, 4b, 4c and 4d through which the ring members 2 and 3 are inserted at both ends. Further, as described above, the mount 4 is formed with bent portions (with lines) 4e, 4f, and 4g so that the side surface shape can be formed into a substantially triangular shape.

  Also, the paper pieces 5 and 6 have basically the same configuration as the paper pieces 5 and 6 constituting the desk calendar 1, and openings through which the ring members 2 and 3 are inserted are formed on the left and right sides on the upper end side. 5a and 5b (6a and 6b) are respectively formed. In the present embodiment, these paper pieces 5 and 6 are cut into the same size as the postcard, and need not be printed. In other words, each of the paper pieces 5 and 6 is a printed surface or a recording surface on the front surface (can be printed on the back surface), and a user can use a commercially available personal computer and printer. Arbitrary information can be printed by an arbitrary layout, or can be recorded by a writing instrument after printing. Accordingly, the type and use of the information to be printed are determined by the user. If the information printed on the paper pieces 5 and 6 is, for example, calendar information, the above-described (turnover type) desk calendar 1 If the information to be printed is a name list such as a name, an address, a telephone number, etc., it becomes a turntable table name list. In addition, about the method of assembling | attaching and removing these parts (a code | symbol is abbreviate | omitted), since it is the same as that of the desktop calendar 1 mentioned above, description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In addition, in the binder for paper pieces described in each embodiment described above, all the two ring members are mounted, but the desk calendar and the flip-type desk book using the binder ring for paper pieces according to the present invention are: Three or four ring members may be constituent elements.

  It is a disassembled perspective view which shows the desk calendar which concerns on embodiment of invention.   It is a disassembled perspective view which seriously shows the binder for paper pieces.   It is a sectional side view which expands and shows the point of a desk calendar.   It is a perspective view which shows a flip type desktop book set.   It is a perspective view which shows the known knowledge of the conventional desk calendar.
