ALBERT S. \VOODARD, OF MANSFIELD, OHIO.
BINDING- I SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 757,990, dated April 19, 1904. Application filed July 12, 1902. Serial No. 115,361. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT S. TOODARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mansfield, in the county of Richland and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Bindings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a binding for pamphlets, sheet-music, paper-bound books, and paper covers for cloth-bound books, as well as for fastenings for covers for architectural or other designs or sketches, specifications, photographs, &c.
The object of the invention is to provide a binder or hinge for pamphlets, sheet-music, or the like which will effectually prevent the leaves from becoming separated and will act as a reinforce for the back or cover thereof.
In order to fully appreciate the advantages of the device, as well as the novel construction, reference is had to the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is an edge elevation of a binder constructed in accordance with my invention, the tongue having been cut out. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the preferred form of blank of the binder. Fig. 3 is an edge view thereof, showing the tongue and end flaps folded. Fig. 4 is a perspective View of the binder ready to be applied. Fig. 5 is a slightlyrnodified form of binder. Fig. 6 is an edge View thereof. Fig. 7 is a perspective view of Fig. 5 (or interhinge) ready for application.
The invention consists of a blank formed of adhesive cloth and struck out by a suitable die of any predetermined design or pattern and may consist of gummed linen or other strong fabric.
As shown in the drawings, A designates the' blank, which is preferably rectangular, or approximately so, and is provided with a longitudinal crease A at or adjacent the center thereof, so that by folding the blank on the crease A two wings are formed.
A designates a tongue which is formed in the blank by stamping an approximately I:- shaped incision in the blank, the ends of the incision terminating at a point adjacent the crease.
On one end of the blank are two flapsB and B, which are formed by providing a crease B along the edge of the blank, said flaps being intersected by a notch or cut-out portion O.
Assuming that a sheet of music or a pamphlet is to be provided with this binding, one of the blanks can be attached to the back thereof, both at the top and bottom, the flaps B and B being bent over the top and bottom edges of sheet, so as to secure the binding in place. Intermediate bindings may be provided along the back of the pamphlet or music to give additional strength thereto. If it is desired to intcrpose a number of inside sheets and bind them to the back of the outside covers, this can be done by making a slit in the fold of the cover of sufficient length to admit the tongue through the same. After the tongue A is passed through the incision thus made (it will be noticed that the corners thereof are rounded to facilitate its insertion) it is held between the thumb and forefinger While the wings are moistened and stuck to the back or outside of cover, and the flaps B are turned over the edge and stuck to the inside faces of cover. Thus the hinge is firmly attached, the back additionally strengthened, and the tongue A left ready to receive the inner sheet, which is now attached by moistening simultaneously the three or more tongues and applying the sheet thereto.
The form shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 1 is preferably used for the ends, while the form shown in Figs. 5. 6, and 7 is designed for the intermediate bindings instead of on the ends. These forms as shown in Figs. 5, 6, and? are somewhat similar to the forms shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, and 4:, except that I dispense with the end flaps B and B, these not being necessary in view of the fact that the ends are not folded over the ends of the back or the cover.
Of course it will be apparent that the intermediate bindings or those on the ends, or both, can be suitably ornamented, as by removing portions of the binding, as at D, Fig. 5, and providing bindings of different color than the surface to which they are attached.
If it is desired to fasten a double sheet to the inside of the back, an incision will have to be made at the crease thereof and the moistened tongue inserted and pasted to the inside of the page. Should one not prefer to attach the inside leaf to the cover, of course the incision need not be made, and the tongues A may be moistened at the same time as the remainder of the gummed surface and pressed down with it on the outside of the cover. In this event, however, astyle can be used which has no tongue, if desired. For reinforcing paper-bound books and paper covers for cloth volumes a special form of hinge can be supplied having a wider notch or cut-out portion at C. It will also be apparent that the bindings may be provided of varying sizes to suit the different demands of the trade to accommodate them to the varying thicknesses of magazines and books.
I am aware that other bindings or fastenings have been heretofore devised for a like purpose, most of them contemplating the attaching of a sheet in aportfolio which affords protection only while confined therein and does not protect singly the covers against separation. I am not aware, however, that a device of the character described has been provided with flaps designed to be turned over the edge and stuck, to the inside of the cover to prevent the ends from being torn loose through careless usage and for reinforcing and protecting the sheet at its most vulnerable point, the end of the fold.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is 1. A binding for the purpose described 0.0mprising a blank struck from a single sheet of adhesive fibrous material, said binding having two wings formed by creasing the blank intermediate its ends, a tongue struck up from the center of the blank, and end flaps formed by providing creases along the edge of the blank, said flaps being spaced apart.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a binding for folded sheets comprising a blank formed of a single piece of adhesive fibrous material, and having a central crease and a tongue formed in theblank by making an approximately E-shaped incision, the end there.
of terminating adjacent the fold.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALBERT S. WOODARD.
