THOMAS \V. KELLEY, OF BROOKLYN, ASSIGNOR TO BUTLER dz KELLEY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
PAPER-BINDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 434,393, dated August 12, 1890.
Application filed May 6, 1890- Serial No. 350,851. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS W. KELLEY, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and 5 useful Improvements in Paper Binders or Fasteners, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to devices for holding sheets or leaves of paper or like material together.
It relates particularly to devices for securing together the separate sheets or leaves of pamphlets, newspapers,dancing-programmes,
I and sheets or leaves of other similar articles.
The-invention consists of ametallic binder having a loop or eye and prongs projecting oppositely from such 1oop-that is, the eye is substantially a circle or closed loopand where the wire or strip forming theloop meets the ends of the strip are bent away from each other in the same line or direction as the tangent to the loop or circle.
The invention also consists of the combi 2 5 nation of this binder with a string, cord, or
othertie for holding it in place.
The loop of this binder is first passed through a slot in the material to be held together at a point where it is desired to effect 0 the binding, the loop then projecting through on one side of the material being bound and the prongs of the loop lying against the face of the said material on the other side thereof. The cord or string is now doubled and passed 3 5 through the eye of the binder, the double in the cord dropped over the eye, and the loose ends of the cord drawn tight, so that the double is forced into the neck or contracting bends between the eye and its prongs. Thus the sheets or leaves to be bound are drawn tightly together at the bending-point and firmly secured to one another.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a View of dancing-programme, pamphlet, or 5 otherlike combination of two or more doubled sheets, the same being bound together by a binder embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a detail View of the binder, illustrating how the cord is doubled over the eye of the same. Fig. 3 is a detail View of the binder.
Referring to the views, A represents the binder or fastener; B, two or more sheets of paper doubled along their middle line and forming the leaves of a pamphlet or programme. and O the cord by which the binder is tied to or held in position when securing two or more sheets or leaves together.
The binder may be constructed from strips of metal or other proper material; but usually it will be made of Wire of appropriate size to give the requisite stiffness. The loop or eye D of the binder is of substantiallya circular form, and its prongs E are oppositely bent from the circle part and extended alongwhat may be termed the tangent of such circle. Preferably I make this loop somewhat angular at F, where itsvsid'es approach the prongs, and this for the purpose of forming a more or less prolonged and gradually-narrowing neck between the loop and the prongs, and it will be understood that this neck may have greater or less length, according to the thickness of the sheets the fastener is designed to secure together. The sheets are to be pierced at the points where it is desired to bind them by one or more slots that permit the loop of a binder to pass through them. The loop of the binder is then forced through such slot and projects from the back of, while its prongs lie in, the fold of the sheets, as seen in Fig. 2, the prongs being indicated by dotted lines' A tic-cord O is now passed around the neck of the fastener-loop. Preferably the cord is doubled, the double put through the loop and then opened and passed over the loop, as seen in Fig. 2, after the style of a slip-noose.
Of course the tie may otherwise be made; but this slip-noose will usually be found most convenient, as it permits the removal of the cord, if desired, as also the tightening thereof should the binder become loose in its slot from wear or otherwise. The tie-cord may have long ends and may have tassels or other devices attached to it to serve as ornamentation, or as in the case of dancing-programmes to serve as a means for attaching the programme to the arm or button-hole of a person using it.
I have shown this binder as passing through the folds of the sheets it secures together; we
but it is plain that it may be passed through the edges of the sheets it secures and from side to side thereof, as in the case 0t sheets, each serving as single leaves.
\Vhat is claimed as new is 1. The herein-described paper-binder, consisting of the loop D, formed with the oppositely-projecting prongs E, and having a gradually-contracting neck F between the loop and said prongs, whereby a cord may be looped on said neck to tighten and hold the binder in place, as and for the purpose set forth.
2. I11 combination, the sheets of paper or like material C, a binder A, passed through and securing said sheets together, and consisting of the loop D and prongs E, andacord 0, passed around said loop and holding the binder in place, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In combination, the sheets 0, a binder A therefor, consisting of loop D and prongs E, joined to the loop by the gradually-contracting neck F, and a cord 0, secured on said neck to hold the binder in place, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
THOMAS NV. KELLEY.
