BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, a pair of left and right holes are drilled in the center of a long presser having guide grooves on both sides along the longitudinal direction, and a binding piece is inserted into these holes, and the left and right positions of the presser are adjusted. There is a known binding device in which a document inserted through a binding piece is bound by bending each of the binding pieces outward by a slider slidably provided on the binding piece and restraining the bent portions. .

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, according to the above-mentioned conventional binding tool, when binding documents, two sliders are slid respectively.
It is necessary to perform an operation to release the restrained state of the folded part of the binding piece, and an operation to restrain the folded part again, respectively, which makes the binding operation troublesome, and it is difficult to do so with the presser inserted through the binding piece. There was an inconvenience in that it was not possible to view documents while flipping through them.

Means for Solving the Problems Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present application provides a plurality of flexible binding pieces on a long board so as to be bendable in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the board. and an elongated plate piece with insertion holes for the binding pieces having at least a straight front edge extending in the longitudinal direction at positions corresponding to the binding pieces at the bottom thereof,
And, in the upper part facing this, there is a recessed part that opens one end of the insertion hole, and a bottom part at the other end position of the insertion hole, which is necessary for the binding piece to be bent. A presser foot, which is connected to a restraining part protruding forward at a front edge position of the insertion hole with a gap therebetween by an inclined edge, and has a binding part each having a guide part opened at the front. a plurality of flexible binding pieces to be attached to a member such as a file; and a long plate having a straight front edge extending in the longitudinal direction at a position corresponding to each of the binding pieces; An insertion hole for the binding piece is provided at the bottom, and
A gap necessary for the binding piece to be bent is provided between a recess that opens one end of the insertion hole and the bottom plate at the other end of the insertion hole on the upper side facing this. and a restraining part that projects forward from the front edge position of the insertion hole, separated from the holding part, and a holding part that is connected to the holding part by an inclined part and has a guide part with an open front. Preferably, the binding piece, the binding piece, and the holding part are each made of synthetic resin, and in order to smoothly raise and lower the binding piece, a guide is provided. at the part position, facing the recessed part,
Further, a protruding portion that coincides with the upper part of the binding portion is provided from a position that substantially coincides with the front edge of the insertion hole to a position that faces the sloped portion to form a guide groove that guides the insertion of the binding piece, and In order to make it easier to insert the binding piece into the insertion hole, one end of the insertion hole is formed wide toward the rear edge side.

Furthermore, in order to prevent loosening in the binding state, a non-slip part is formed on one side of the folded side of the binding piece, and a tongue piece for a stopper is provided at the front edge of the restraining part or at the position of the insertion hole opposite to this. The binding piece is formed in a flat shape on the bending side in order to facilitate the raising and lowering operation of the binding piece.

Function: Although the binding piece may be used as it is, its substrate is fixed to a member such as a file, or the binding piece is directly inserted and attached to a member such as a file.

In this state, each binding piece is inserted through the binding hole drilled in the document, and then inserted into one end of the insertion hole, and the plate piece is pressed onto the document so as to face the board. Press the piece toward the other end of the insertion hole. The binding pieces slide on the top surface of the document, and the binding pieces reach the restraining part via the inclined part of the guide part, respectively.
At this position, each of the binding pieces is simultaneously bent forward between the bottom of the plate and the restraining part and lies down toward the front edge of the plate, and in this state, the binding pieces are restrained. In this restrained state, the edge of the narrow width portion engages with the anti-slip portion. In this loaded state, for example, when a file or a base plate is placed on a bookshelf with one end of the insertion hole facing upward, the pressure may cause the presser piece to move in the direction of the restraint part due to the impulse or vibrations during handling. When an external force is applied, there is a risk that the presser piece will slide downward and the binding piece will move to one end of the insertion hole, causing the binding state to become loose inadvertently. It comes into contact with the side edge of the binding piece to prevent it from wobbling.

Furthermore, when the binding piece is inserted through the binding piece and the document is turned over to view the written contents, the binding piece is held in the middle by the restraining part.
