Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" This invention involves inserting a plurality of locking blades into the binding part of the bound book on the opposing surfaces of the upper and lower ends of the combined book file. This invention relates to an improvement in the metal fitting adjustment mechanism of a binder for combined files configured to bind together files.

``Prior Art'' Conventionally, there has been a metal fitting adjustment mechanism for this type of binder as shown in FIG. 3. In the figure, A is the back side fixing part of the bound book fixed to the inside B' of the back side of the binder B, and this back side fixing part A is
For example, regulation guides C and C' (not shown) for regulating binding are formed by bending a sheet metal into a U-shape. D is a guide body having an insertion hole E, and an upper regulating plate F is rotatably attached to the upper edge of the guide body D by a pin G, and is always directed upward by an elastic body such as a coil spring. It is urged to lie down. Incidentally, the guide body D is firmly fixed at an appropriate position within the above-mentioned regulation guides C and C'. Further, a plurality of locking blades I, I, . It should be noted that locking protrusions F', F' are formed on the left and right sides of the upper edge of the regulating plate F in the opposite direction to the locking blades I, I, . . . I.

J is a push fixture, and this fixture J has a vertical part K and a horizontal part L that can be freely inserted into the insertion hole E of the guide body D.
It is composed of. The horizontal portion L is provided with a locking edge L' on which the above-mentioned locking protrusions F' and F' lock. Moreover, O is a sliding piece. M is an elastic locking piece formed integrally with the guide body D, and when the vertical part K of the push fixture J is inserted into the insertion hole E of the guide body D, the lock piece M locks the push fixture J into the insertion hole E of the guide body D. This is to temporarily fix J so that it does not slip out of the insertion hole E.

"Effect of conventional example" Next, the operation of the above conventional example will be explained.

First, both ends L ₁ of the horizontal part L of the pushing fixture J,
When _L2 is pulled by hand, the vertical portion K of the push fixture J is released from the temporary fixation of the elastic locking piece M, and is slid within the insertion hole E of the guide body D and pulled out. Then, due to the biasing force of an elastic body such as a coil spring, as the horizontal part L is pulled out, the upper regulating plate F's locking protrusions F', F' and the sliding piece O are moved to the horizontal part L. Lodging upward while making contact.

Therefore, after inserting the lower part of the binding part of the bound book (not shown) into the locking blades I, I, ...I of the lower regulation plate H,
When the pushing fixture J is pushed into the insertion hole E of the guide body D, the upper regulating plate F is raised to a horizontal position by the horizontal portion L of the fixture J, and the locking blade of the upper regulating plate F (not shown) is raised to a horizontal position. It is inserted into the binding section at the top, and the bound book can be bound.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, since the position of the upper regulating plate F is fixed in advance to the inside back surface B' of the binder B during manufacture of the binder,
Fine adjustment of the position of the upper regulating plate F was not possible. For this reason, there have been drawbacks such as cutting errors in conventionally published magazines and the inability to bind magazines of non-standard sizes.

``Means for Solving the Problems'' The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and includes a plurality of locking blades protruding from the upper and lower ends of the inside of the back surface of the binder, respectively, on opposing surfaces. At the same time, both the upper and lower regulation plates are installed vertically inside the back,
In the binder fitting adjustment mechanism configured to insert this locking blade into the binding part of a bound book to bind the bound book, a guide body fixed to the inside of the back of the binder and a sliding body provided on the upper regulation plate are used. The upper regulating plate is configured to move toward and away from the lower regulating plate by fitting and sliding, and the guide body is provided with an elongated hole in the vertical direction, and the sliding body is formed with the elongated hole and the elongated hole. Sliding convex portions are provided at corresponding positions, and when the guide body and the sliding body are fitted and slid, the sliding convex portions slide within the elongated holes drilled in the guide body, and the sliding body is moved to any desired position. The sliding state between the guide body and the sliding body is released by operating a sliding fixing part that can be locked to the sliding plate, and the locking position of the upper regulating plate provided on the sliding plate can be adjusted. be.

23, it is doubly fixed. Moreover, by loosening and adjusting both the fixing parts 20 and 23 depending on the size of the bound book, even non-standard bound books can be bound.

After that, when the upper regulating plate 8 is folded down and the bound book is to be bound, the both ends 15', 15' of the horizontal part 15 of the pushing fixture 13 are pulled by hand, as in the case of conventional binding. The vertical portion 14 of the push fixture 13 is released from the temporary fixation of the elastic locking piece 16 and is slid inside the insertion hole 7 of the guide cylinder 6 and pulled out. Then, due to the biasing force of an elastic body such as a coil spring, the upper regulating plate 8 is moved as the horizontal portion 15 is pulled out.
The locking protrusions 8', 8' and the sliding piece 12 are brought into contact with the horizontal portion L and are collapsed upward.

Therefore, after inserting the lower part of the binding part of the book (not shown) into the locking blades 11, 11, ... 11 of the lower regulation plate 10, the push fixture 13 is inserted into the insertion hole 7 of the guide cylinder
When pushed in, the upper regulating plate 8 is raised to a horizontal position by the horizontal portion 15 of the fixture 13, and the locking blade (not shown) of the upper regulating plate 8 is inserted into the upper seam, and the bound book is It can be bound.

In the above embodiment, the position of the upper regulating plate 8 can be adjusted within the range of the elongated hole 3 formed in the guide body 2a, but it is possible to adjust the position of the upper regulating plate 8 within the range of the elongated hole 3 formed in the guide body 2a. Of course, the position of the upper regulating plate 8 may also be set.

"Effect of the invention" As mentioned above, the present invention has both upper and lower regulating plates in which a plurality of locking blades 11, 11, ... 11 are protruded from the upper and lower ends of the inner back surface B' of the binder B, respectively, on the opposing surfaces. in the binder fitting adjustment mechanism, which is configured to vertically stand inside the back surface B' and to insert the locking blades 11, 11, ... 11 into the binding part of the bound book to bind the bound book. The upper regulating plate 8 moves toward and away from the lower regulating plate 10 by the fitting and sliding movement of the guide bodies 2a and 2b fixed to the inside back surface B' of B and the sliding body 4 provided on the upper regulating plate 8. The guide bodies 2a, 2b are formed with elongated holes 3 in the vertical direction, and the sliding body 4 is provided with a sliding protrusion 17 at a position corresponding to the elongated hole 3. 2a, 2b and the sliding convex portion 1 are inserted into the elongated holes 3 bored in the guide bodies 2a, 2b during the fitting and sliding movement of the sliding body 4.
7 slides, and the sliding state between the guide bodies 2a, 2b and the sliding body 4 is released by operating the sliding fixing parts 20, 23 which can lock the sliding body 4 in any position, and the sliding body 4 is released from the sliding state. The locking position of the upper regulating plate 8 provided on the moving body 4 and the sliding body 4 can be adjusted. Therefore, it is possible to finely adjust the positions of the guide bodies 2a and 2b, and it is now possible to bind magazines even when there are errors in cutting them or books that are bound in a non-standard format.
