The roller brushes 91 and 92 are synthetic resin brushes planted radially on the surface of rollers.

A case in which photographs are bound as cards 6 using this bookbinding apparatus 1 will be described.

The bookbinding device 1 energizes the solenoid 31 to displace the drive shaft 32 in the direction of the arrow. The holding plate 40 is pulled in the direction of arrow B via the arm 34 and the rod 37, and the coil springs 46 and 47 are compressed and stand by at the position shown by the chain line.

The pressing plate 56 of the thickness direction pressing mechanism 4 is lifted in the direction of the arrow and kept stationary at the position shown by the chain line.

The back cover 12 to be bound and the adhesive tape 7 are adhered in advance with their edges overlapped, and the adhesive tape 7 is bent at the edge of the back cover 12 with the adhesive side facing the valley. The slide gauge 8 of the bookbinding device 1 with the side in the above state
5 and place it on the workbench 2. Place the photograph 6 and the cover 11 on the back cover 12, press the take-out groove 22 side of the photograph 6 with your finger, bring it into contact with the reference plate 23, and align the edges.

If the energization to the solenoid 31 is stopped here, the presser plate 4
0 is displaced along with the rod 37 and arm 34 by the repulsive force of the coil spring 46 and book 7 in the direction of arrow A to the position indicated by the solid line. Therefore, the side surface 6a in photo 6 is the presser plate 4.
0 to evenly press and align the edges.

Next, grasp the handle 59 and pull down the arm 59 in the direction of arrow C to bring the press plate 56 into contact with the cover 11 of photo 6. The pressing plate 56 presses the photograph 6 in the thickness direction by the action of the spring 58.

When the motor 81 is driven and the feed screw 79 is rotated in the direction of the arrow E, each member of the sticking mechanism 5 connected to the threaded tube 78 and the connection plate 77 slides on the rail 71 in the direction of the arrow G. The slide gauge 85 slides on the surface of the adhesive tape 7. As shown in FIG. 2, when the moving table 76 moves in the direction of arrow G, the gear 87 rotates clockwise. Therefore, the gears 88, 89 and roller brush 91 rotate counterclockwise, and the gear 80 and roller brush 92 rotate clockwise. These move in the direction of arrow G while rotating.

Due to this movement, the slide gauge 85 is attached to the adhesive tape 7.
Subsequently, the roller brush 91 comes into contact with the adhesive tape 7 and rotates the back surface of the adhesive tape 7 in the rolling direction to press it against the photo 6. Furthermore, a subsequent roller brush 92 comes into contact. roller brush 92
Since it rotates in the opposite direction to the roller brush 31, it moves to rub the back surface of the adhesive tape 7 in the opposite direction, and serves to press the adhesive tape 7 onto the photograph 6. Since the brushes of the roller brushes 91 and 92 have elasticity, they move as if hitting the back side of the adhesive tape 7, and the adhesive tape 7 is reliably stuck to the side surface of the photograph 6.

Further, when the roller brush 92 passes through the adhesive tape 7, the rotation direction of the motor 81 is reversed by the action of a microswitch (not shown) provided on the bottom surface of the housing 20, and the feed screw 78 rotates in the direction of arrow F. Since the movable table 76 moves in the direction of arrow H, the rotation direction of the roller brushes 91-82 is also reversed. The roller brush 92 rubs the back surface of the adhesive tape 7 again while moving in the direction of the arrow H, and functions to press the adhesive tape 7 onto the photograph 6. Subsequent roller brush 91
rotates the back side in the rolling direction and presses the adhesive tape 7.

When the roller brush 81 separates, the screw cylinder 78 contacts the microswitch 82, and the motor 81 is stopped. The bookbinding operation is completed by bending the upper end 8 of the adhesive tape 7 and pressing it onto the cover 11 with your fingers.

The solenoid 31 is energized to displace the rod 37 in the direction of arrow B, the pressure on the side surface Eta in Photo 6 is released, and the arm 5
4 in the direction of the arrow to release the suppression in the thickness direction. All you have to do is put your finger into the take-out groove 22 and take out the bound photographs 6.

In this embodiment, a roller brush 91Φ92 is used as the roller, but other than the roller brush, an elastic roller such as a sponge roller or a rubber roller can also be used.

Further, although the upper end 8 of the adhesive tape 7 is pressed with a finger, for example, even if a mechanism similar to the thickness direction pressing mechanism 4 is provided and the upper end 8 of the adhesive tape 7 is pressed, the upper end 8 of the adhesive tape 7 is pressed.
It is also possible to add a hole to the adhesion mechanism 5 for pressure-bonding.

FIG. 3 is a partially cutaway perspective view of another embodiment of a card bookbinding apparatus to which the present invention is applied. The bookbinding apparatus 1 shown in the figure is equipped with a work table 2 on which a card 6 is placed, a mechanism 3 for pressing the side surface 6a of the card 6, and a mechanism 5 for pasting the card 6 and tape 7.

Workbench 2, reference plate 23, side pressure mechanism 3, rail 71 of sticking mechanism 5, bearing 72, slider 73, plate body 74
is the same as the embodiment shown in FIG. A moving table 7B is arranged on the plate body 74, and a slide gauge 85 is attached to the upper surface of the moving table 78. A pressing brush 91 is provided in the notched portion of the slide gauge 85. The pressing brush 91 is a synthetic resin brush planted on the surface of a plate material.

This bookbinding device 1 is used as follows.

The photograph 6 is placed on the workbench 2 in the same manner as the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, and the side surface 8a is pressed using the side pressure mechanism 3 to align the edges of the photograph 6. While pressing and fixing the cover 11 of photo 6 with a finger, each member of the pasting mechanism 5 is moved in the direction of arrow G by placing a hand on the moving table 7B. As the moving table 76 moves, the slide gauge 85 slides on the back surface of the adhesive tape 7, and the pressing brush 31 moves while rubbing the back surface of the adhesive tape 7. Since the pressing brush 91 has elasticity, the adhesive tape 7 is pressed against the side surface of the photograph 6 and adhered thereto. After the pressing brush 91 has passed the adhesive tape 7, each member of the sticking mechanism 5 is moved in the direction of arrow H, and the pressing brush 81 is again used to remove the adhesive tape 7.
Rub the back of the. The adhesive tape 7 is more securely attached to the side surface of the photograph 6. Finally, the upper end 8 of the adhesive tape 7 is bent with fingers and pressed onto the cover 11 to complete the bookbinding operation.

In this embodiment, a pressing brush 31 is used as a pressing member.
However, in addition to the brush, an elastic member such as a sponge or rubber can be used.

Although the roller brush St 82 and the pressing brush 31 are moved back and forth in the pasting process in these embodiments described above, they may be used to move only in one direction.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained in detail above, (1) the card binding device of the present invention can easily and efficiently bind cards such as photos and postcards, and there is little variation in the binding condition depending on the operator, especially in opposite directions. The finish is beautiful when a pair of rotating roller brushes are used.

The bound cards can be turned over one by one like a pest, and at the same time, they can be removed one by one.
