Application filed September 17, 1907. Serial No. 393,353.
binder for the said documents, and which when filled may be used,i-f desired, for'permanent filing.
An objection to the use of the ordinary arch file is that the papers are held very loosely thereon and the dust and dirt may freely enter the back thereof.v My invention overcomes this objection by firmly holding the papers in a temporary binder and, at the same time, providing a covering for the back. This has the additional advantage that the file may be stored away as a book and when filled may, if desired, be used as a permanent file.
The invention is described in detail in the accompanying specification and drawings, in which,
Figure l is a perspective view of my combined temporary binder and arch file in closed position. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the same when open. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the alternative form. Fig. 4L is a top view of the alternative form. Fig. 5 is a sectional 'detail' of the locking device for the temporary binder.
In the drawings, like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
Referring to the drawings, A is a base having two arches B and C thereon of the usual construction and being in substance the same as those of the ordinary arch file.
D is the cover formed of suitable stiff material and adjustably held on the arches.
In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, a binding bar a is provided having apertures b and c thereon throughwhich the impaling posts (Z and e of the arches extend. This binding bar is flexibly connected to the cover D by a strip of suitable material E represents a connecting member of flexible material which also forms the back of the binder or file, and, in the form illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, a bar of stiff material 9 is inserted in this connecting member, having apertures 71- and 2 therein through which the transfer posts 7' and 7c of the arches extend. This connecting member, however, may be varied in shape and form, and in the alternative form illustrated in Figs. 3 and t, the bar of stiff material is omitted and the eyelets are attached directly to the flexible connecting member.
I have found it desirable, though not essential to the use of my binder, to employ means for locking the cover to the arch and the means I show for this, as illustrated in detail in Fig. 5, comprise a spring 122 extending across the topv of the binding bar and centrally pivoted to an eyelet a secured to the binding bar, the said spring having two upwardly turned ends 0 and 72- adapted to engage the impaling posts of the arches.
To free the binding bar, the ends of the spring are raised and the spring rotated until the ends come out of engagement with the posts. It is obvious, however, that any other similar or well known form of locking device such as is employed with loose leaf binders may be employed with my device.
hen it is desired to gain access to the papers on the file, the cover, binding bar, and stiffening bar in the connecting member may be folded back and slid onto the transfer posts of the arches as illustrated in Fig. 2, thus leaving the impaling posts clear enabling easy access to be obtained to the papers. To more securely hold the cover in position, a suitable fastening device 6 with cord to may be provided at the front.
I11 the alternative form shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the cover is continued back between the arches and has slots 9 and 1 provided therein, which enable the cover to be tilted back as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 2, the arches passing through the slots.
It will be observed that the flexible connection f between the binding bar a and the cover D is in advance of the arch files, whereby the stifl cover D may be tilted back and rest against the top of the arches. This affords an exceedingly efficient form of desk against which the leaves on the file may be turned. This feature is of considerable advantage where invoices and the like are placed on the file and it is desired to check the same off.
It will be seen that I have devised an exceedingly simple form of combined binder and file which embodies at the same time all the advantages which it was the object of my invention to obtain.
While the invention has been described herein with great particularity of detail, yet it will be readily understood that changes within the scope of the appended claims, may be made in the details thereof, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What I claim as my invention is 1. An improved arch file including a base, arches thereon, a cover and a bar adjustable on the impaling posts of the arches, flexible connection between the bar and the cover and a flexible member extending between the bar and the base and having perforations through which the transfer posts of the arches extend.
2. In a filing binder, a base, an arch file thereon, a binding bar sliding on the pins of said file and provided with locking means to engage said pins, a flexible backing connecting said bar to the base and having perforations through which the transfer pins of the file extend, and a cover flexibly connected to said binding bar.
3. In a filing binder, a base, an arch file thereon, a binding bar sliding on the pins of said file and provided with locking means to engage said pins, a second bar perforated to slide on the transfer pins of said arches and flexibly connected to said binding bar, a flexible backing between said second bar and the base, and a cover flexibly connected to said binding bar whereby said cover may 1 5. In an arch file, a base having filing pins and transfer arches thereon, a cover having a rigid portion adjustable on said arches, and a flexible portion formed in advance of the front binding posts on the filing arches, whereby the cover may be tilted back and rested against the top of the arches to serve as a rest during checking or marking of the papers on the file, and a flexible connecting backing piece extending from the cover to the base.
6. The combination with the arch file comprising a suitable base, arches thereon, cover having a rigid portion adjustably mounted on said arches and being adapted to be slid on to the rear post thereof, of a flexible connecting backing piece extending from the cover to the base.
Signed at Ottawa, Province of Ontario, this 11th day of September, 1907.
