[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is used when a document such as a slip is bound with a binding string, and more particularly, it relates to a support tool capable of standing up a binding string in a permanent state.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art While a document is protected and bound by a dedicated member with a cover such as a binder or a file, a large amount of a document such as a sales slip is not required to be stored in a very strict manner. The simple bundling is performed. In the case of using a binding string, there is an advantage that handling is easy and a thick amount can be easily handled, and there is a wide demand.

[0003] When binding a document with a binding string, if a predetermined amount of the document is already present, the binding string is inserted into a punched hole of the stacked documents and bound, and this kind of document is used as a sales slip or the like. In most cases, the amount is increased as time elapses and the amount is increased. In this case, it is inevitable that the binding string is released one by one until a certain amount is added, a new document is added, and then the binding is repeated.

[0004] For this reason, conventionally, a stacker member comprising a base member placed on a desk or the like and two insertion bars which are integrally erected on the base member with a binding width interval has been used. At this point, the bundle of documents is pulled out, the binding string is inserted, and binding is performed.

[0005]

In the above-described method using the stacker member, although stacking and arrangement can be performed until a certain amount is reached, a certain amount of documents must be pulled out from the insertion rod, and the sheet is pulled out. There is a trouble that the binding string has to be inserted and passed later, and when the punch holes are displaced during the drawing process due to a large amount, the holes need to be aligned.

Further, when documents without punch holes are forcibly pierced through the insertion rod of the stacker member and stacked,
Since the hole after being pulled out tends to be closed, although the end of the binding string is rigidified with a binder agent such as a synthetic resin, it is in a current situation that it is considerably troublesome as compared with a case having a punched hole.

Further, the stacker member is often provided with the insertion rod fixed and standing upright, and is bulky by the height of the insertion rod even when not in use. Specifically, there is an inconvenience during storage such as inventory management.

In view of the above, the present invention facilitates setting while enabling compact storage by attaching and detaching members, and enables timely stacking and organizing, and stapling of stacked documents regardless of the presence or absence of punch holes. An object of the present invention is to provide a document binding support tool that can be easily bound without requiring a string insertion step.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to achieve the above-mentioned object, and has a feature that at least a pair of gaps are provided at intervals corresponding to a binding width of a document to be bound and inserted through a binding string. A base member having a through hole,
A hollow bar-shaped binding strap erecting member that is pulled out after inserting a certain amount of documents while the lower end is inserted and inserted into the insertion hole at the lower end in a state where the insertion portion of the binding strap is pushed and inserted from the lower end. A housing portion that can house the bent portion of the binding string formed between the insertion hole and the insertion hole is formed to penetrate in the thickness direction of the base member, and the base member has the insertion portion. There is a configuration in which a storage portion for storing the binding string upright member pulled out from the insertion hole in an embedded state is formed.

[0010]

According to the present invention, the insertion portions on both sides of the binding string are inserted into the respective binding string upright members by being pushed from the lower ends thereof. It is inserted upright with a binding string and is erected. At this time, since the accommodating portion capable of accommodating the bent portion of the binding string penetrates in the thickness direction of the base member, the binding string is inserted from the front side or the back side of the base member. In such a state, the documents are inserted through the binding string erecting member, stacked, and arranged. When the document reaches a certain amount, the binding string upright member is pulled out, and the binding string remaining after the document has been inserted and passed is tied and the document is bound. At the time of non-use, the binding string upright member is pulled out from the insertion hole and stored in the storage portion of the base member in a buried state, whereby bulkiness in height is avoided.

[0011]

1 to 6 show an embodiment of the present invention.
The document binding support tool 2 has a rectangular parallelepiped base member 4 placed on a desk or the like, and a pair of insertion holes 6 and 6 of the base member 4.
The erecting member 8 is provided with a hollow rod-shaped binding string erecting member 8 which is inserted and set up. The upper end of the binding string erecting member 8 is sharpened so that the document 14 can be pierced.

The insertion holes 6 and 6 are formed near the one end of the base member 4 with an interval corresponding to the binding width L, and are formed to have a size capable of closely accommodating the lower end 8a of the binding string erecting member 8 closely. And is formed so as to penetrate in the thickness direction of the base member 4. Further, between the insertion holes 6 and 6, a width in which the binding string 10 can be moved by applying pressure as an accommodation groove for accommodating the binding string 10 in order to stabilize the standing state of the binding string upright member 8. Are provided in communication with each other. Note that the temporary fixing groove 12 is also used for the base member 4.
In the thickness direction. Further, near the other end of the base member 4, storage portions 13, 13 capable of storing the binding string erecting member 8 in a buried state are formed. In this example, the base member 4 and the binding string erecting member 8 are both made of synthetic resin.

The binding string 10 has ends 10a and 10b hardened with a synthetic resin binder or the like inserted through the insertion holes 6 and 6 from the back surface of the base member 4 and pulled up to the front surface side, so that the binding string stands upright. The lower end 8a is pushed into the forming member 8 and inserted. In this case, since the binding cord 10 is not pulled up strongly, a portion D corresponding to the binding width is located on the lower surface of the temporary fixing groove 12, as shown in FIG. Each of the binding strap erecting members 8 is inserted into the insertion holes 6 and 6 in a state where most of the insertion portion S of the binding strap 10 is inserted into the binding strap erecting member 8, and as shown in FIG. Documents 14 such as sales slips are stacked and can be arranged. At this time, the binding string 10 protruding from the lower end portion 8a of each binding string upright member 8 is not accommodated in the insertion hole 6, and the temporary fixing groove 1 is used as an accommodation groove.
2, the binding string erecting member 8 is erected in a stable state. Reference numeral 14a indicates a punch hole. Reference numeral 15 denotes a mounting surface such as a desk.

When the documents 14 are stacked to a certain amount, as shown in FIG. 4, the binding string erecting members 8, 8 are pulled out. When each binding string upright member 8 is pulled out,
The binding string 10 has already been inserted through the punched holes 14a of the group of documents 14, and when the binding string 10 is tied in this state, a portion corresponding to the binding width of the binding string 10, as shown in FIG. D passes through the temporary fixing groove 12 and separates from the base member 4, and the group of documents 14 is bound.

As described above, according to the above-described configuration, it is possible to obtain a state in which the binding string 10 has already been inserted through the group of documents 14 by an extremely simple operation of simply pulling out the binding string upright member 8. By immediately binding the binding string 10, the group of documents 14 can be bound.

Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the trouble of once pulling out the group of documents 14 having a predetermined volume and the double trouble of inserting the binding string 10 through the punched holes 14a of the group of pulled out documents 14. Problems such as displacement of the punched holes 14a after being pulled out are also eliminated. In other words, in the same stacking operation as the conventional stacker member, the operation of inserting and binding the binding string 10 proceeds simultaneously, thereby greatly simplifying the document binding operation and improving the efficiency. In addition, even in the case where there is already a set amount, the work becomes easy since the work is to be inserted through the upright binding string 10.

Further, since the binding string erecting member 8 has a sharp upper end, a document 14 having no punched hole 14a is provided.
But you can easily pierce and stack. Since the insertion operation of the binding string 10 proceeds simultaneously with the stacking operation, the group of documents 14 can be bound in exactly the same manner as the case where the punching hole 14a is provided, and the binding string generated when the punching hole 14a is not provided. The difficulty of the 10 significant insertion operations can also be eliminated.

When the document binding support tool 2 is not used, as shown in FIG. 6, the binding string upright member 8 can be pulled out and can be stored in the storage section 13, so that there is no bulk in the height direction. Compacted to a state. Therefore, storage when not in use is facilitated, including securing a storage space. At this time, the storage of the binding string upright member 8 can be performed by setting the width of the storage portion 13 to a size that the binding string upright member 8 is accommodated slightly closely.
It is also possible to employ a configuration in which the holding piece 18 is rotatably supported by the holding piece 18. Further, the storage structure of the binding string erecting member 8 is not limited to this example. For example, it may be configured such that an elongated hole extending in the longitudinal direction from one side of the base member 4 is formed and inserted. It can be configured to form an opening with a lid in the form of a pencil case and house it in it, etc.
Various can be adopted.

FIG. 7 shows another embodiment, in which the binding string 10 is set from the front side while the binding string 10 is set from the back side of the base member 4. The same parts as those in the above example are denoted by the same reference numerals (the same applies hereinafter). The document binding support tool 20 includes a base member 24 having a pair of insertion holes 22, 22 formed therein, and binding string upright members 8, 8. Each insertion hole 22 is provided with a binding string upright member. 8 has a larger diameter than the lower end 8a.

When most of the insertion portion S of the binding string 10 is inserted into the binding string uprighting member 8, the lower end 8a of the binding string uprighting member 8 is inserted into the insertion hole together with the bent portion of the binding string 10. 2
It is inserted upright into 2 and stands upright. Subsequent binding steps are the same as in the above example.

As described above, since the insertion hole 22 is formed to have a larger diameter than the binding string erecting member 8, when the binding string erecting member 8 is inserted, a space formed on the outer periphery thereof is formed. It functions as an accommodation groove for the binding string 10. Therefore, even in the case of setting from the surface side without forming a through hole in the base member 4, similarly to the above example, the binding string 10 protruding from the lower end 8 a of each binding string upright member 8.
Since the (bent portion) is in a state of being sandwiched between the insertion hole 22 and the outer periphery of the binding string erecting member 8, the binding string erecting member 8
Is erected in a stable state.

Next, FIGS. 8 and 9 show still another embodiment. The base member 28 of the document binding support tool 26 is formed with insertion holes 6 and 6 for closely accommodating the lower end 8a of the binding string erecting member 8 and accommodating the bent portion of the binding string 10. The groove 30 is provided continuously with the insertion holes 6 and 6. Further, in the present example, the respective accommodation grooves 30 are communicated with the temporary fixing grooves 32.

The use operation will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 8, the binding width equivalent portion D of the binding string 10 is pressed into the temporary fixing groove 32 to be buried, and the binding string 10 is positioned on the base member 28. Then, each one of the binding strings 10 is inserted into the binding string upright member 8, respectively, and after the insertion, the binding string upright member 8 is inserted into the insertion holes 6 and 6. At this time, the bent portion of the binding string 10 protruding from the lower end 8 a of the binding string upright member 8 is accommodated in the accommodation groove 30. In the case where a slight backlash is generated in the standing state of the binding string erecting member 8, for example, FIG.
As shown in (1), a configuration can be adopted in which an insertion hole 34 having a large diameter is formed and the outer surface of the lower end 8a of the binding string erecting member 8 is covered with a thin layer 35, such as rubber or sponge, which elastically adheres.

As described above, since the folded portion of the binding string 10 is accommodated in the accommodation groove 30 when the binding string upright member 8 is inserted, the setting is performed from the surface side of the base member 28 as in the above-described example. Even when the binding strap upright member 8
There is no feeling of cramping when inserting or pulling out, and it can be erected in a stable state.

In each of the above examples, both the base member 4 and the binding string erecting member 8 are formed of synthetic resin. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and various materials such as an aluminum alloy can be adopted. . In addition, although the configuration of the two-hole binding is illustrated, the configuration in which a plurality of pairs of the insertion holes 6 and 6 and the binding string erecting member 8 are provided can cope with a document having a large size.

[0026]

According to the invention, after the setting, when the fixed amount is reached, by simply pulling out the binding string upright member, it is possible to obtain a state in which the binding string has already been inserted through the document group. Then, binding can be performed immediately by binding the binding string, so that it is possible to avoid the trouble of pulling out a document group and inserting the binding string. In addition, the binding strap uprighting member is detachable and stored in the buried state to realize compact storage without bulky height,
Regardless of whether it is inserted from either the front or back side of the base member, the bent portion of the binding string is accommodated in the accommodating portion, so that the binding string upright member can be easily inserted and retracted to avoid cramping at the time of insertion. Can be set, and
This can be erected without play.
As a result, the document binding operation can be greatly simplified and the efficiency can be improved.
