Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic clip mounting device and a base of the same device, in which clips are automatically fed one by one so that documents, cards and the like can be continuously mounted by the clips. And a cover and a clip pusher.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a device for binding documents and the like using a clip, it has been manufactured and sold under the names of "gachuck" and "uniclip".

No. 3 "Clip strip and clip driver". Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6-15994 “Continuous paper binding device for clip paper binding device and cover and clip pusher used for the device”
Etc. have been disclosed.

The above-mentioned Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-59346 has only one clip in the main body, and therefore has to be loaded with a clip each time it is used. The next one in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 56-71772 is designed so that several clips can be stored in the case B, but when using it, the clips are pushed out by the pusher D and the paper is bound again. When using, first case B
Lower the tip of the to downward, drop the clip in the case by gravity, magnetize the magnet in the case,
It is used by pushing out the clip with the press base D.
Since it cannot be used continuously, it is troublesome to use. Further, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 56-86168 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-86168.
No. 66876 can be used continuously, but the former is one in which the clip case 2 is provided on the upper surface of the base 1 on the inclined surface where the clip can descend due to natural gravity, and the latter. Is a vertical clip case 11 that can store clips and send them in sequence.
Is installed upright on the horizontal base 10, and the clip transfer path 40 is formed at the front portion of the clip case, which is located immediately below the clip case, and both are large table-use type. , It is not easy to use or carry in a pocket.

The "clip driver" of US Pat. No. 4,353,157 is substantially the same as that described above, so its explanation is omitted. Next, JP-A-5-427
The No. 93 is a strip that allows a large number of clips to be loaded into the clip driver with one touch, and a large number of clips can be loaded with a one-touch operation using the clip strip. Next, JP-A-6-1599
The paper of No. 4 can be bound with a paper clip continuously, but has a problem that the structure is complicated, mass productivity is low, and the cost is high.

[0005]

In the conventional clip mounting device described above, a small one cannot be continuously used, and a continuously usable one is a large tabletop type. In addition, there are drawbacks such that the structure is complicated, the manufacturing is complicated, and the cost is high. The problem to be solved by the present invention is
It has a very simple structure and a small size, but it can store many clips, and when used, it automatically feeds out one clip at a time and continuously binds the paper. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic clip mounting device, a base and a cover for the device, and a clip pressing tool which are highly productive and can be manufactured in a smart manner.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, in the automatic clip mounting device of the present invention, a substantially hollow storage portion for storing a clip and a clip pusher is formed in the main body. A paper insertion port is provided in the front part, expansion springs are installed on the rear parts on both sides of the insertion port, and a long hole is formed in the upper surface of the main body, and a pusher is attached to the long hole so that it can slide back and forth. Then, one end of the expansion coil spring is hooked on the hooking protrusion of the pusher, and the other end is hooked on the hooking protrusion of the clip pressing tool housed in the housing part, and at the bottom surface of the clip pressing tool. The protruding finger hook is fitted in a slot formed on the lower surface of the main body so as to be slidable back and forth, and an insertion port for a clip is provided on the lower surface of the main body.

A clip pusher is inserted in the storage part to push the clip inserted in the storage part forward, but when the clip is replenished and loaded, the clip pusher is moved backward. It is necessary to move and hang it. For this reason, as a hooking method, the hooking portion provided at the rear end of the elastic plate portion protruding behind the clip pusher is hooked at the hooking portion provided at the rear end of the main body, and the clip is replenished and loaded. After that, the hooking portion is released from the hooking portion, and the clip pusher is pulled forward by the contracting force of the expandable coil spring to advance the front clip.

Next, as a method of replenishing and loading the clip,
Can be replenished from behind. To do this, a clip feeding device equipped with a clip pusher is provided separately, and this clip feeding device is detachably inserted from the rear of the main body to press the clip forward. It takes out and supplies clips.

In the conventional product of this type, the base and the cover may be unintentionally dropped during use or the like, so that they are bound by a metal binding band. For this reason, it took time to assemble parts and assemble. In the present invention, in order to eliminate this, a coupling device is made by using the materials of the base and the cover, and the coupling device is provided at at least three positions on the rear side, the central part, and the front part of the main body, so that the base and the cover are carelessly prepared. It is designed to prevent decomposition.

[0010]

In order to load a clip into the automatic clip mounting device of the present invention constructed as described above, the clip pusher in the main body is moved backward and locked, and then the clip is lowered downward as shown in FIG. When the clip pusher is released from the hook after being sequentially inserted into the insertion opening of the base in the direction of the arrow and sent forward to be mounted, the state becomes usable as shown in FIG.

To bind a document or card, insert a sheet into the front end of the main body, put a thumb on the finger rest of the pusher and push it forward, and the tip of the pusher pushes the rear portion of the clip. By pushing and moving forward, the guide part of the clip abuts the rear end of the expansion spring, and the guide part further moves forward as it begins to open, so that the upper and lower two spring plate parts are stuck together and the paper When the clip's ears pass through the spring plate part, the spring plate part returns to its original state, and at the same time, the clip pinches the paper by elastic force and binds it, and the clip is inserted together with the paper. Taken from. As a result, in the next clip, the clip pusher advances together with the clip pusher due to the contracting force of the expandable coil spring, and becomes the next usable state.

After that, the left and right separate bodies may be adhered to each other to complete the main body 1, and the shapes of the pusher 4, the clip pressing tool 6 and the like may be changed within a range not departing from the spirit of the present invention. Of course, there is no change in design.

[0052]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it has the following effects.

The automatic clip mounting device, the base and cover of the automatic clip mounting device, and the clip pressing tool are such that the next clip 8 is immediately pressed by the clip pressing tool 6 after the paper is bound by the clip 8.
Is automatically pushed, and the next usable state is achieved, so that it is possible to perform continuous paper binding, which is extremely convenient.

When the clip 8 is replenished, the clip 8 can be easily replenished and loaded by retracting the clip pusher 6, which can help improve the work efficiency.

Compared with the conventional product of this type, the structure is simple and the manufacturing and assembling are easy, so that the cost can be reduced and the product can be provided at low cost.
