JESSE F. TAPLEY, OF NEYV YORK, N. Y.
METALLIC BINDER OR FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 307,817, dated November 11, 1884.
Application filed March 17, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, Jnssn F. TAPLEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Metallic Binders or Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in metallic paper-fasteners or temporary binders, the object being to provide anarticle of this class which is adapted to take a more firm grip upon the paper than those heretofore made, and which obviates the necessity of having the sheets which are secured by it provided with a perforated tearing-line.
In the drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 illustrates a paper writingpad having applied thereto the fastener or binder embodying my invention. Fig. 3 is a view of the fastener separate from the pad.
Fig. 2 is one form of a tool adapted to facilitate the application of the fastener to the writing-pad. Figs. 4 and 51are modifications of the fastener shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
In the drawings, a indicates the fastener, which is made by punching or cutting a piece of suitable sheet metal, to reduce it to the proper shape to make the fastener.
The device as shown consists of a strip of metal with side portions bent at right angles to the closed or rear portion, such side portions being provided with teeth bent inwardly from opposite edges, and alternating in their location upon the sides. The fastener so formed. is adapted to receive within it the united ends of the sheets of paper composing the writingpad I), and its opposite edges are provided with a series of teeth, 0, so arranged that those upon one edge occupy a position between those upon the other edge, and the points of the teeth 0 extend to a line about central between the faces of the pad. The fastener having been applied to the pad I), as in Fig. l, the entrance of the teeth into the paper, as there shown, whereby each sheet of paper is partially separated from that portion thereof within the fastener, together with the edge of the fastener at the base of the teeth, conduce to so facilitate the removal of one sheet after another of the paper that it becomes unnecessary to perforate a tearingline across the sheets near the fastener, as is commonly done. When the pad I) is of considerable thickness and presents an inconvenient amount of resistance to the entrance of the teeth 0 of the fastener, the end of the pad upon which the fastener is to be applied is perforated by the use of an implement like or similar to that shown in Fig. 2, whereby holes are made in each side of the pad for the reception of the teeth 0. Said implement consists of a frame, d, on the base of which is arranged a series of teeth, a, which correspond in position and size to the teeth on one side of the fastener, and directly above teeth 0 is located a bar, 0, having teeth a thereon, which correspond in form and position to the teeth on the opposite side of the fastener. The bar 6 has a movement toward and from the base of the implement, suitable springs holding the bar 0 in the position shown in Fig. 2, and the bar is forcibly moved toward the base of the machine by swinging the camlever D. WVhen said machine is employed in the application of the fasteners to the pad, the end of the pad isplaced between the teeth 0 and c in such a position that the perforations will be upon a proper line, and the ma chine is operated as aforesaid. The fastener is then applied to the end of the pad, the teeth thereof being made to enter the perforations, when the end of the pad with the clamp thereon is subjected to the operation of any suitable press, whereby the fastener is made to assume the position shown in Fig. 1, thereby firmly securing the leaves of the pad one to the other, no danger of loosening the fastener arising from the removal of the leaves one by one.
The use of this fastener is not confined to the making of paper pads, but may be adapted, by a different arrangement of teeth, to many mercantile and mechanical uses -such as binding together pieces of cloth or leather, or other material for sample-books. It may also be adapted to the binding of books by compressing it upon the backs of the same, the teeth holding the leaves together and the covers securely to the book, in which case, besides making a more permanent back than leather or cloth, it would save that portion of the material which covers the back.
plied to any of these purposes by sufficiently separating its toothed edges and placing the IOC It may be ap- V material to be bound between them, and sub- I fastener, adapted to inclose the ends of a semitting the whole to pressure, as aforesaid. ries-of sheets of paper or other material, con- Fig. 4 illustrates a modified form of teeth sisting of a strip of metal with side portions 1 5 on a clamp which may be employed where bent at right angles to the closed or rear por- 5 permanency of fastening is not an object. tion, such side portions being provided with Fig. 5 shows upon the back of a fastener teeth bent inwardly and adapted to penetrate the ordinary clips, m m n, which may be apsaid sheets from opposite sides thereof, subplied to the fastener, (such as shown in Figs. stantially as set forth.
