[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention prevents the newspapers or booklets from slipping or falling apart when they are unfolded. The present invention relates to a fastener that can be read in an always aligned state without curling, and a fastener that can be folded neatly without being aligned when the original size is finished after reading.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditionally, newspaper binding has been installed in a place where many people can gather to read the newspaper in an orderly manner. Its structure is as shown in Fig. 2 from the top to the bottom of the central folding part. The whole thing is sandwiched and stopped. This ensures that the newspaper will not slip or come off no matter how many times it is opened and closed. However, this was a hassle to replace daily, took up space to keep it open, and wasn't easily portable. At the same time, in the conventional holders, the central margin is sandwiched, but in many cases, because of the structure, it is not possible to press only the margins, and even the typeface is clamped, and even if the page is turned over, the center two or three lines cannot be read. There is also. At home, offices, barbers, waiting rooms at clinics, etc., there are always a couple of newspapers, but because of the need for space and the hassle of exchanging newspapers, we did not bind them. It is folded and placed like "3". As a result, the newspaper after being read by some people will be misaligned or misaligned and will not fold neatly after folding, which will make the next reader uncomfortable. Also, newspapers are not only sitting and reading indoors, but when standing outdoors, they can easily shift or fall apart, for example, at bus stops, station forms, and trains with wind. Therefore, once unfolded, it folds up neatly when folded to change trains.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the case of newspapers, unlike books and notebooks, they are made by simply stacking several sheets and bending them, not by using threads, metal fittings, or adhesives. Therefore, each page is shifted or dislocated before half the reading is completed. This will make you feel uncomfortable the next time you read or another person will. Moreover, the conventional permanent type is not only troublesome to install and remove, but also takes up space and is too large to be portable. The present invention was devised to solve these drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A pin 3 and a pin 4 which are divided into two from the knob 1 are provided, and a ball 5 and a ball 6 are provided at the tip of each pin. Then, the dorsal fin 2 is provided on the pin 3. The present invention is a folding paper fastener having the above-described configuration.

[0005]

[Action]

 (B) The newspaper is in the state shown in "Fig. 3" at the time of purchase and delivery. In order to insert the fastener of the present invention, one has to search for the center of the fold, and in order to find the center without widening the newspaper at that time, press the upper corner 7 with a finger as shown in "Fig. 4". , The center being folded can be easily found. As a result, when the ball 5 is inserted inside the open upper corner 7 and the ball 6 is exposed outside and the knob 1 is pushed down and pushed down, the folded portion of the newspaper can be inserted between the pins 3 and 4. it can . Further, the dorsal fin 2, which is a characteristic part of the present invention, has the action of solving the drawback that the pins 3 and 4 are displaced from the bent portion and become inclined or move to another part. At any time during use, the fastener can always come directly above the central fold. (B) If the upper corner 7 is fastened with the fastener of the present invention, it is possible to deal with the loosening of the newspaper, but by further fastening the lower corner 8 in the same manner as the upper corner 7, it is possible to prevent slipping and to secure more securely. it can. (C) When discarding a newspaper, pull out the knob 1 and pull it out, and insert the fastener of this invention into a pocket etc. and store it until the next use.

[0006]

[Example] (a) When disposing of a newspaper when commuting, remove the fastener of the present invention and insert it into a pocket like a pen. Also, at home, etc., the fasteners are replaced when exchanging the newspaper of the day before and the newspaper of the day. (B) The balls 5 and 6 do not have to be in the shape of balls, but if the tip is sharp or the corners are upright, there is no risk of injury when attaching or detaching, and there is no possibility of being caught in the newspaper when inserting. As it is, it should work smoothly. Similarly, the knob 1 does not have to be in the shape of a sphere, a disc, or a ring, but may be in the shape of an animal, a doll, or any other shape. (C) The material relating to this may be any material including metal and resin. The knob 1, the pin 3, the pin 4 and the dorsal fin 2 may be made of the same kind of integral material or different kinds of materials may be joined, but the pins 3 and 4 need a restoring force. Yes, even if you push the two pins apart during insertion, you need to pinch the newspaper with the pins at the end of insertion, and a pinching force that does not fall even if the object sandwiched in the lower corner 8 is upside down when reading the newspaper is required. To be done. (D) The dorsal fin 2 may be a plate-shaped member joined to the pin 3 or may be a plate-shaped member integrally with the pin 3, but even if it is a hollow member having only an outer frame, its function will not change. Absent. By extending the tip of the pin 3 to form the dorsal fin as shown in FIG. 13, the same function as the dorsal fin 2 is achieved. (E) The following may be considered as other embodiments of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 6, by removing the dorsal fin 2, it may bend a little when inserted, but when it is taken out of the newspaper and stored, it is safe because there is no protrusion in the pocket. Also, when the page is bent when it is inserted, it moves to the center while turning the page, and when it finishes reading, it comes to the bent part. This embodiment is an embodiment in which the dorsal fin 2 is excluded from the basic concept of the present invention. (Claim 2) (f) Pass the ring 10 through the pin 3 as shown in FIG. The ring 10 may be made of metal or resin, but the inside of the ring 10 has little friction and slides with the pin 3. Friction is increased on the outside of the ring 10 by using rubber or resin. In most cases, one newspaper has four pages on the front and back, but occasionally one half of the front and back pages with half the size is inserted in the center. At this time, since the fastener of the present invention is easily detached, the ring 10 is used to widen the contact surface to prevent this. When sandwiching the newspaper in the newspaper, put the ring 10 inside the folded portion of the newspaper and sandwich the newspaper. The pin 10 and the pin 4 sandwich the newspaper while the ring 10 remains at the top of the newspaper. (Claim 3) (G) By attaching a lens 11 in place of the knob 1 or the dorsal fin 2 as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. You can see it in a larger size by removing it from the newspaper. In particular, when mounting the lens 11 in place of the dorsal fin 2 of the pin 3, if the length of one vertical line of the newspaper can be entered at one time, the hand does not have to move up and down, but can be moved left and right. (Claim 4) (H) In the past, matches were everyday items for smokers and were always around us, but secondly the number of matches decreased due to the spread of lighters, and now there are fewer smokers themselves. Conventionally, matchsticks were widely used as a substitute for earpicks, but they became inconvenient because they disappeared from the surroundings. As shown in "Fig. 10" and "Fig. 11," knob 1 or ball 5 It can also be used as an earpick 12 by making the portion of the shape a spoon. (Claim 5) (i) The conventional earpick has a shape as shown in FIG. 10, but the shape of the earpick 12 is changed to the shape of a rotating earpick 13 as shown in FIGS. Unlike the shape, it can be used without worrying about the front and back, and because of the spherical surface, the inside of the ear is safe. (Claim 6) (N) In the case of the earpick 12 and the rotating earpick 13, by shortening the R portion in front of the ball 6, it can be used more smoothly than when it is put in the ear.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 (B) This is effective not only for newspapers but also for booklets, etc., which are folded without being fixed with metal or adhesive. (B) When considering the reuse of resources, reuse is troublesome if metal other than paper is stopped, but since it is easy to remove, there is no worry and it is economical because it can be used repeatedly. is there. (C) Unlike conventional holders, newspapers can be folded while they are used, so they can be folded up and used in the home or office, as well as in the waiting room of a barber's office or clinic, so that they can be folded and organized. Due to its small size and weight, it does not feel heavy even if it is held and spread while standing up, and it can be fully used as a portable device when commuting. (D) The conventional holder sandwiches the blank area at the center of the newspaper as shown in Fig. 2, but this makes the central blank area invisible. Depending on the device, the margin is different, and depending on the product, the print may be hidden even when the page is turned over by the holder hanging up to the print, but there is no concern about this proposal, and it is always necessary to open up to the blank part. Easy to read.
