FRANK E. HOUSE, OF WINTHROP, MASSACHUSETTS.
LOOSE-LEAF BOOK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented J nine 11, 1912.
Application filed January 26, 1912. Serial No. 673,539.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK E. HoUsn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Winthrop, in the county of Sufi'olk and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Loose-Leaf Books, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to loose leaf books and it has for its object to provide an improved book of this class.
The invention consists in the novel features of construction and combinations of parts set forth in the following description and particularly pointed out and defined in the claims at the close thereof.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a loose leaf book embodying the preferred form of my invention, the back of the book being shown in its open condition; Fig. 2 is a sectional view of a portion of the book shown in Fig. 1 but with the back in its closed condition; Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a portion of the front section of the cover of the book; Fig. 4: is a perspective view of a portion of the rear section of the cover of the book; Fig. 5
is a perspective view of a portion of one of the leaves of the book; Fig. 6 is a perspective View of one of the locking strips hereinafter referred to.
I have herein shown my invention as embodied in a photograph or post card album but as will be obvious it is equally applicable to other kinds of loose leaf books- The cover of the book comprises a front member or section 10 and a rear member or section 11 made, respectively, with extensions 12 and 13 which, together with the two sections 10 and 11, inclose the bunch or stack of leaves 14 that are locked together and to the sections 10 and 11 by a pair of locking strips 15. Each leaf 14 is made at its back edge with a pair of open-ended opposed and relatively oblique slots 16 which register with similar slots 17 and 18 formed in the sections 10 and 11. The locking strips 15 are made from stiff sheet material, preferably sheet metal of a thickness to fit the slots of the leaves and sections 10 and 11 and each is preferably provided at its ends with laterally extending wings 19 to embrace the stack and cover sections and hold the same together when the strips are in operative position as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
The section 10 is made with a relatively narrow flap 2O hinged thereto along the forward edge of said section, said flap being of about the same size as section 10 so that when folded down onto said section it covers the latter and also the ends 19 of the locking strips 15. This flap 20 is provided with two sockets 21, made like the sockets of a glove fastener, said sockets cooperating with studs 22 provided on a relatively wide flap 23 that is hinged to rear section 11. This flap 23 is hinged to section 11 along the forward edge of the latter and is sufficiently wide and flexible to be folded around the back portion of the stack as shown in Fig. 2, with its free end and the studs 22 on top of section 10.
In assembling the book the stack of leaves 14 is placed between the covers 10 and 11 with the leaf slots 16 registering with the slots 17 and 18, and then the locking strips 15 are slid edgewise into the registering slots 16, 17, 18, after which flap 23 is folded around the stack and the flap 20 down onto the latter, the sockets 21 of flap 20 being engaged with the studs 22 of flap 23. This looks the back of the book in its closed condition with the strips 15 covered and con fined within the slots of the back and leaves by the flap 23. In this condition all of the parts are strongly secured together with provision for being readily separated by simple and easily manipulated means, and so long as the open ends of the slots are closed it is obvious that the binding strips cannot escape therefrom and that therefore the book cannot become unbound.
I claim:
1. A looseleaf book comprising a stack of leaves, said stack having a multiplicity of opposed, oblique, open-ended slots; a multiplicity of stilf locking strips mounted in said slots; and means for closing the open ends of the slots to prevent the escape of the strips.
2. A looseleaf book comprising a stack of leaves, said stack having a multiplicity of opposed, oblique, open-ended slots; a multiplicity of stiff locking strips mounted in said slots; and a detachable member for closing the open ends of the slots to prevent the escape of the strips.
3. A looseleaf book comprising a stack of leaves made with a plurality of opposed, oblique, open-ended slots; a plurality of stiff locking strips mounted in said slots, each having lateral extensions at its ends; a front cover section slotted to correspond with the Signed by me at Boston, Mass aohusetts, slots of the stack and provided With a flap; this 16th day of January, 1912.
a rear cover section slotted to oorres 30nd with the slots of the stack and provided with FRANK HOUSE a flap; and means for separably fastening Vitnesses:
the tWo flaps together to close the open- OLIVER MITCHELL,
ended slots. MARY A. 'OBRIEN.
