Abstract

An assembled device for stationery tools comprises a cover and a receiving mount that can be reciprocally secured to each other wherein the cover has a guiding ringed edge defined by an appropriate-size littering port in the center to correspond to a guide rod protruding in the center of the receiving mount thereon. Besides, the cover also includes an elongated slot, a retaining hole, and elongated and flat insert holes appropriately arranged to surround the outer periphery of the top surface thereon wherein the elongated slot can be applied to snap off an endmost edge blade of a utility knife, while the retaining hole and the insert holes thereof can respectively serve to hold in place various types of stationery tools so that the stationery tools can be neatly stored and positioned in specific locations for further use, achieving the best state of application thereby.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to an assembled device for stationery tools, comprising a cover reciprocally secured to a receiving mount wherein an elongated slot, a retaining hole, and elongated and flat insert holes are appropriately arranged on the top surface of the cover thereon so that the elongated slot can be applied to snap off an endmost edge blade of a utility knife, and the retaining hole and the insert holes thereof can respectively serve to hold in place various types of stationery tools, facilitating neat and easy storage of the stationery tools to achieve the best application state of the present invention thereby.
A storage container for holding waste from stationery tools is revealed in a Taiwan patent with the Publication No. 584087 wherein a cover 40 is equipped with an elongated groove 42 defining thereon that can be applied to snap off the endmost edge blade of a utility knife A thereby. However, the storage container is inflexibly set in one-dimensional function and unable to hold in place various types of stationery tools such as utility knives, staplers, and staple removers, etc. As a result, when not in use, those stationery tools are randomly stored or messed up on the table or some other places, which makes them difficult to be retrieved for further use thereof.

SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

It is, therefore, the primary purpose of the present invention to provide an assembled device for stationery tools, comprising a cover and a receiving mount reciprocally secured to each other wherein an elongated slot, a retaining hole, and insert holes are appropriately disposed on the top surface of the cover thereon so that the elongated slot can be applied to snap off an endmost edge blade of a utility knife. Besides, the utility knife can also be positioned to astride in an angle onto the insert hole, and the retaining hole is molded to fit to the handle portion of different stationery tools so that a press grip of a staple remover can be guided to locate onto the retaining hole for storage thereby. Thus, the present invention can serve to hold in place various types of stationery tools, facilitating neat and easy storage of the stationery tools in specific locations for further use to achieve the best state of application thereby.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Please refer to FIG. 1 showing an exploded perspective view of the present invention. The present invention relates to an assembled device for stationery tools, comprising a cover 10 and a receiving mount 20 wherein the cover 10 has an opening edge defined by a stepwise external-threaded section 11, and a middle section integrally concaved downwards from large to small to form an arcuate and conic guiding ringed edge 12 with an appropriate-size littering port 13 extending through the center and an annular groove 14 defining the internal surface thereon. The cover 10 also includes an elongated slot 15, a retaining hole 16, and two elongated and flat insert holes 17 appropriately arranged to surround the outer periphery of the top surface thereon. The elongated slot 15 and the retaining hole 16 are symmetrically situated around the top surface of the cover 10 to opposite to each other thereon, while the two insert holes 17 are likewise positioned in symmetrical opposition thereon. Besides, depending on the handle portion of different stationery tools (e.g. the press grip of a staple remover), the retaining hole 16 can be flexibly shaped into, for example, a T-shaped form, etc. The receiving mount 20 has an opening edge defined by an internal-threaded section 21, and a conic guide rod 22 protruding from small to large in the center thereof to form a receiving groove 23 therein.
In assembly (referring to FIG. 2), the external-threaded section 11 of the cover 10 is reciprocally secured to the internal-threaded section 21 of the receiving mount 20, permitting an appropriate-spaced annular room 30 to form between the littering port 13 and the protrusive guide rod 22 thereof. Thus, metallic waste 40 produced from stationery tools can be freely dumped through the littering port 13 to enter the annular room 30 and slide along the guide rod 22 so as to accommodate into the receiving groove 23 therein. Meanwhile, to snap off and desert an endmost edge blade 51 of a utility knife 50, the endmost edge blade 51 thereof is put into the elongated slot 15 and then bent towards one side so that the endmost edge blade 51 will be segmented to drop into the receiving groove 23 thereby. In addition, the external-threaded section 11 of the cover 10 can be easily unscrewed from the internal-threaded section 21 of the receiving mount 20 so that the metallic waste 40 produced from the stationery tools and littered into the receiving groove 23 can be cleaned out there-from completely at once, achieving convenient and safe application of the present invention thereby.
Please refer to FIG. 3. When the utility knife 50 is not in use, the endmost edge blade 51 of the utility knife 50 can be directly guided to accommodate into either one of the insert hole 17 disposed on the top surface of the cover 10 so that a holder 52 of the utility knife 50 is allowed to contact and rest on a table surface, while the endmost edge blade 51 is precisely tilted into an angle to position astraddle to the insert hole 17 thereby. Moreover, the retaining hole 16 is designed to fit to the handle portion of different stationery tools so that a staple remover 60 (referring to FIG. 6) can have a press grip 61 guided to receive into the retaining hole 17 in abutting location therewith, while the other grip 62 of the staple remover 60 is stably abutted against the table surface thereof. Therefore, the present invention can also serve to hold in place various types of stationery tools, facilitating neat and easy storage of the stationery tools in specific locations for further use to achieve the best state of application thereby.

Claims
