PATENT SALES-BOOK AND TEMPORARY BINDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 637,493, dated November 21, 1899.
Application filed February 5,1897. Serial No. 622,212. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADELBERT S. ABBOTT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented a new and useful Sales-Book and Temporary Binder, of which the following is a specification.
An object of my invention is to provide a novel convenience for the use of salesmenin taking orders and preserving a copy of the same; also, to provide a simple and convenient holder for store and office use with or without manifold; also, to provide a convenient temporary binder for separate leaves of any kind.
My invention embraces a manifold -book comprising separate and independent origt nal sheets and separate and independent copy-sheets and a temporary binding to temporarily hold the sheets together at one edge, the advantage of this being that the original sheets and the copy-sheets can be reversed, so as to use both, sides of each of saidsheets, thus to economize paper and the space required for filing orders.
The accompanying drawings illustrate my invention.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my orderbook closed. Fig. 2 is an exaggerated fragmental section on line 2 2, Fig. 1. an exaggerated fragmental section on line 3 3, Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the book open for the removal or introduction of the sheets. p
The book comprises separate and independent sheets A A, perforated at one edge, as indicated at a, a cover comprising two binding-strips B B, flexibly connected at one edge by suitable means, such as the flexible strip 1), one of which binding-strips has eyeletholes 1 1 to correspond with the perforations of the sheets and the other binding-strip being provided with pins 2 2 to enter said holes when the binding-strips are folded together, and a strap 0 fastened to one of the bindingstrips and arranged to temporarily hold the two strips together in folded position. The fastening-strap is preferably elastic and its ends are preferably fastened to the back-strip B, which is the one provided with the pins. The strips are preferably provided with rigid boards D D, one of which is flexibly con- Fig. 3 is nected with its strip, as at d, the other being either rigidly or flexibly connected, as may be desired. The rigid connection is shown in the drawings, as in the case of B andD. This is preferable where it is desired to use the appliance as an order-book, the book being held in the left hand while Writing With the right. The rigid back formed by B and D provides a suitable tablet for the sheets. The sheets are ordinarily perforated on the left edge. By preference the means for holding the strips together in their folded position consists of an elastic strap 0 with ends fastened to one of the strips, as B, and with its intermediate portion over the other strip to hold the strips together when the pins are inserted in the holes; but I do not wish to limit my claim solely to the use of the elastic strap.
In manufacturing this book the flexible connection for the strips is made of leather or some other suitable flexible material, as at b b, and a metal strip B, having the projecting pins 2 2 thereon, is placed upon the flexible connecting-strip b", with the pins projecting away from such strip and through the board D, and slits 3 3 are cut through the connecting-strip b and the board at the ends of the metal strip. Then the ends of the elastic strap are inserted from the outside through the slits and are then brought upon the inner face of the board D and fastened. The flexible strips 5 b embrace the binding-strips and are pasted thereto, and the edge of the board D is embraced between the flexible connecting-strips, so as to make a flexible connection, as at d, between the binding-strip B and the board D. The holes for the pins are made through the binding-strip B, and the material of the two flexible connecting-strips b b, and eyelets, as at l '1', are inserted through these holes and form a binding to hold the connecting-strips to the binding-strip" The backboard may be flexibly fastened to the binding-strip B in the same way D is fastened to B or in the-Way D is fastened to B in the drawings, in which the board D is perforated and the binding-strip is placed on the back thereof and the pins inserted through the holes, the board being slitted to receive the ends of the elastic strap and the bindingstrip and the board and the ends of the elas= tic strap all being clasped between the two flexible connecting-strips, which are pasted to opposite sides of the board.
In practical use the original sheet-s A and copy-sheets A are all perforated at one edge, as shown in the drawings, and are placed in position alternately with the pins through the holes, and the binding-strips are folded together and clasped in their folded position by means of the strap. Then the order is taken in the ordinary way. If the order is larger than can be placed upon one face of the sheet, when that face is filled the original sheet and the copy-sheet may both be taken out and reversed, thus bringing the blank side of each uppermost. Then the carbon A" is placed between the said two sheets and the order is taken in duplicate, as before. It is to be understood that triplicates or more numerous copies can be taken in the manner common with manifolds.
Now, having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A temporary binder comprising two strips, one of which is slitted adjacent to its ends and provided with pins therebetween, and the other one is provided with perforatidns to register with said pins; and an elastic strap, each end of which passes through one of the slits and engages with one of the pins of one of the binding-strips and has its intermediate portion passed over the other strip.
2. In a sales-bool ,tl1e combination with two covers, one of which is slitted and provided with pins and the other one is flexible and provided with openings to register with said pins; of a flexible connection secured to the slitted and perforated edges of said covers respectively; an elastic strap, each end of which passes through one of the slits and engages with one of the pins of one of the strips and has its intermediate portion passed over the other strip; and a series of perforated removable leaves upon the pins between the covers.
A. S. ABBOTT.
