THEODORE F. BOURNE, OF BLOOMFIELD, NE\V JERSEY.
PAPER HOLDER 0R FILE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 312,702, dated February 24, 1885.
Application filed July 7, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THEODORE F. BOURNE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bloomfield, Essex county, and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful holder or file for holding, securing, and fastening legal or other papers, letters, &c., of which the following is a specification.
Myinvention relates to that class of holders or files where the papers are held in place by means of a spring-clip; and the object of my improvement is to provide a holder in which papers can be placed at different times and sewed or otherwise fastened together without removing them. I accomplish this by making the clip and the holding-board or fileback in the form shown in the accompanying drawings, which are to be taken as a part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is plan view of the holder, and Fig. 2a side view of the same.
Similar letters refer to similar parts th roughout the several views.
B is the holding-board or file-back,which is rectangular in shape and of any convenient dimensions and material. Two edges of this holding-board, preferably those shown in Fig.
' 1,are provided with perpendicular side pieces,
f and f, of any convenient height. These serve to arrange and regulate the papers as they are placed in the file. The upper side piece, f, also serves as a carrier for the clip 0.- VVhere the file is made of sheet metal, these side pieces are made, preferably, by turning up edges on the piece of metal out of which the file-back is cut, as shownin Fig. 2. If the fileback is 0f wood,the side pieces will be made in the form of thin strips attached thereto in any convenient manner. The holding-clip O is of any convenient size and material. It will be preferably a little shorter than the width of the file-board, and from one to two and onehalf inches wide. In form it is similar to an ordinary slightly -bent buckle, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. It may also be made solid with the opening 0 cutin it. It is attached to the side piece, f, by any convenient form of hinge, preferably, h0wever,when the file-back is made of sheet metal, in the manner shown in the drawings, and is firmly held upon the file-back by means of the spiral wire springs s s,wound around the hinge-rod. It is provided with a button, (1, forlifting it. In cases whereasmall number of papers only are to be filed, the side pieces,ff, may be made very low or dispensed with. The clip will then be hinged directly to the file-back, and will be only just sufficient-l y beutto enableit to hold the papers firmly. A rectangular opening, 0, is cut in the file board below the opening in the clip, as shown in Fig. I. This opening is preferably nearly as large as that of the clip, but about one-third as wide.
In cases where it is desired to fasten the papers together by patent fastenings, a number of smaller openings placed side by side may be used, instead of the long rectangular one. The form shown in the drawings will be found most convenient for all purposes.
By means of the opening in the clip, or the buckleshaped clip, as shown, and the opening in the file-board below the same, free access is obtained to the papers on either side, and they are still held as securely as in other forms of holders.
The manner of using the holder is as follows:
The clip 0 is withdrawn from the back board I and the papers pushed in under it into the angle formed by the edgesf and f and the clip allowed to fall. and papers withdrawn from time. to time, or holes can be made through the papers through the openings 0 and O, and the whole fastened together in a suitable manner and left in'the holder or removed therefrom.
The holder will be made of various sizes, so that when the papers have been properly pushed into the angle formed by the edges f and f the fastenings or sewing will come as nearly as possible inthe center of that side or end of the papers through which it passes.
I claim as my invention- The holder can be used thus 1. In a file or rack for holding legal or other papers, the combination, substantially as hereinbefore set forth, of the file-back B, the edge or rim f, forming a hinge or support for the clip, and the edge or rim f, placed at either side springs s s, and the elongated opening 0 in r the file-back opposite the opening 0 in the clip C, through which the papers can be sewed or which the papers can be sewed or fastened to- IO fastened together while still held by the clip. gether while still held by the clip.
3. In a file or rack for holding legal or other I In testimony whereof I have hereunto subpapers, the combination, substantially as herescribed my name this 2d day of July, A. D. inbefore set forth. of the file-back B, the hold- 1884.
