Toman, P.O. Box 433, Ellsworth, Kans.; James L. Quinn, trustee of the estate of said Joseph D. Toman, bankrupt Original application Oct. 25, 1960, Ser. No. 64,791, now Patent No. 3,212,505, dated Oct. 19, 1965. Divided and this application Oct. 18, 1965, Ser. No. 497,362 2 Claims. (Cl. 129-19) This is a division of application Serial Number 64,791, filed October 25, 1960, now Patent Number 3,212,505.
This invention relates to loose leaf binders and to loose leaf binding tapes.
The present invention relates to that general class of binder employing gummed tabs to which leaves or sheets may be adhesively secured, and it has for its object, first, the provision of a continuous binder strip of paper or textile material having gummed portions which can be partially severed to produce tabs to which leaves or sheets may be adhesively secured, without disturbing the remaining portion of the continuous binder; second, more particularly, a continuous gummed binder strip having successive lines of perforations delineating tabs that may be partially severed to freely project for the adhesive attachment of sheets or leaves without disturbing the remaining portion of the strip; third, a backing or folded cover the portions of which are joined by an inwardly folded leaf-holding means located between the cover portion and the back portion.
The invention relates also to binding hinges of the type adaptable for securing a loose leaf in a book, for securing sheets of music in a folder, or for similar purposes, and the objects of the invention include the provision of a secure form of binding member which may be economically formed of a single piece of material and may be attached with great facility.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following disclosure thereof.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a plan view showing a form of the mounting tape which may be employed alone or in the construction of a binder file, and FIGURE 2 is a sectional view thereof.
For a fuller description of various forms of the overall disclosure pertaining to this invention reference should be had to Patent 3,212,505, issued to Joseph D. Toman on October 19, 1965, the present disclosure having been shown in said patent as one form of the invention. The embodiment of the invention shown in FIGURES 1 and 2 may be employed to accommodate eighty sheets of paper. As previously disclosed, the tape in this embodiment is made of paper or suitable textile material in designated lengths or in rolls, the tape extending lengthwise as in FIGURE 1. The tape has on its upper surface marginal edge portions 40 and 41 which are coated with an adhesive or a gum and adapted for attachment to the cover and back portion 11 of a binder. An ungummed spacing portion 42 lies inwardly of and ad jacent to the gummed marginal edge portion 40. A second ungummed spacing portion 45 including the median line of the tape and equally spaced from each of the gummed marginal edge portions 40 and 41, is provided. There are two gummed portions 43 and 46 extending throughout the length of the tape, one 43 lying inwardly of and adjacent to said first ungummed spacing portion 42, the other 46 lying outwardly of and adjacent to said second ungummed spacing portion 45. There are two ungummed portions 44 and 47 extending throughout the 3,279,473- Patented Oct. 18, 1966 length of the tape, one 44 lying inwardly of said first ungummed spacing portion 42 and adjacent to said second ungummed spacing portion 45, the other 47 lying outwardly of said second ungummed spacing portion 45 and adjacent to one of said gummed marginal edge portions 41. The tape is scored and cut at evenly spaced intervals along its length, the cuts being shown at 48, 48, 48, 48. These cuts are made at right angles to the gummed marginal edge portions 40 and 41 and the cuts are confined to the gummed and ungummed portions 43, 46 and 44, 47. FIGURE 2 depicts the manner of using the tape for permanently binding loose-leaves or sheets of material. By employing a binder and loose-leaves having the dimensions previously set forth in connection With FIGURE 8 of Patent Number 3,212,505, eighty sheets of paper can be very easily accommodated, by using only one tab, such as 43, per sheet of paper.
It is to be understood that either a glue or a pressure sensitive or other adhesive may be employed in the manufacture of the tapes herein disclosed, the only requirement being that of relatively permanent adhesion to the binder.
As many changes could be made in the above constructions and many apparently widely different embodiments of my invention within the scope of the claims, could be made without departing from the spirit or scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanying specifications and drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
I claim:
1. For use in a binder, a leaf-holding means comprising a strip of tape which is continuous and of paper or textile material and adapted for severance into a strip of suitable length without disturbing the remaining portion of said continuous strip of tape and having on its upper surface marginal edge portions which are gummed and adapted for attachment to the cover and back portion of a binder, an ungummed spacing portion lying inwardly of and adjacent to one of said gummed marginal edge portions, a second ungummed spacing portion including the median line of said tape and equally spaced from each of said gummed marginal edge portions, two gummed portions extending throughout the length of said tape one lying inwardly of and adjacent to said first ungummed spacing portion the other lying outwardly of and adjacent to said second ungummed spacing portion, two ungummed portions extending throughout the length of said tape One lying inwardly of said first ungummed spacing portion and adjacent to said second ungummed spacing portion, the other lying outwardly of said second ungummed spacing portion and adjacent to one of said gummed marginal edge portions, said strip of tape being cut at evenly spaced intervals along the length thereof at right angles to said gummed marginal edge portions and said spacing portions and in the region of said gummed and ungummed portions only.
2. A leaf-holding means as claimed in claim 1 in which the severed length of tape is adapted to be folded along each of the longitudinal lines defining the juncture of said gummed and ungummed portions of said tape to form bight portions and in which the cuts at evenly spaced intervals along the length of the tape are in said bight portions.
