Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mechanism for a rigid binder back comprising two rigid, pivotally intercon ⁇ nected back halves, said binder back also comprising forks for retaining papers and documents inserted in the binder and a locking mechanism for holding together the back halve when the binder is closed.
  • bin ⁇ ders of this type designed for various purposes.
  • the invention concerns, more particularly, binders intended for frequent use under hard conditions and in a troublesome environment, e.g. for price-lists and catalogues for stores of materials, supplies of spare parts, etc.
  • binders intended for frequent use under hard conditions and in a troublesome environment, e.g. for price-lists and catalogues for stores of materials, supplies of spare parts, etc.
  • binders Up to now such binders have been formed with back parts of pressed sheet metal. To permit these back parts to pivot towards one another they are often provided with a wire serving as an articulation which is alternatingly embraced by bent-over tongues of the two back parts along the wire and the back.
  • the back parts include two portions, on one hand, a back portion on the edge of which articulating means are provided to permit the back parts to pivot towards and away from each other and, on the other hand, a side portion which extends substantially perpendicularly to the back portion of the back part and to the free edge of which a binder side is attached.
  • the forks which keep the punched papers, docu- ments, register leaves etc. in position in the binder, are also usually secured to the side portions.
  • the forks are usually spot welded or riveted to the side portions.
  • Co- acting locking means- for holding the binder back together in closed position are usually attached to the back portions.
  • each back part consists of a sole piece of constant cross- section throughout its length, preferably an extruded piece of metal or plastic material, and that the back portion of either back part has at its free edge complementarily co- acting articulation means adapted to provide a pivot joint between the back parts.
  • Each back part has also internally and throughout its length at least one longitudinally extending guide means in the form of a flange or a groove which is adapted firmly to support binder details for a fork device or for a binder lock.
  • each back part has guide means for insertion of binder sides.
  • a bearing means has a longitudinally extending mountin groove with parallel walls situated at such a distance from each other that the pivot means can be introduced with a small play through the groove in the bearing means at right angles to the hinge, the radial orientation of the groove being such that introduction can take place only when the side portions of the back parts are swung with their free ends against each other, while the pivot means is prevented from running out of the mounting groove when the side por ⁇ tions of the back parts have been swung away from each other from the insertion position.
  • a flange carrying the pivot means while the articulation means has, at least at one point along the hinge, abutment surfaces at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the articulation and so arranged that they will coact when the back parts are swung from the mounting position in order to prevent rela- tive displacement of the back parts.
  • the longitudinally extending bearing means may be cylindrical with a hook-shaped section while the pivot means consists of a round bar having a diameter corresponding to the inner cylinder surface of the bearing means, said bar being joined with the other side portion by means of a flange.
  • the coacting articulation means are formed so that the articulation means of one back portion consists of a first cylindrical gear roll with outwardly directed, longitudinally extending teeth, while the articulation means of the other back por ⁇ tion consists of a second cylindrical gear roll with out ⁇ wardly directed longitudinally extending teeth adapted to mesh with the teeth of the first gear roll.
  • a lock piece adapted to hold the teeth of the gear rolls in mesh with each other, said lock piece being adapted to per ⁇ mit either gear roll - and, consequently, also either back part - to make a swinging motion of about 90 relative to the. locking piece.
  • the lock piece has a longitudinal back portion including branches provided on either side of said portion and extending along it, said branches being adapted each to embrace one gear roll, and at its ends the lock piece has end walls adapted to overhang both the ends of the gear rolls whereby these rolls and, consequently, the back parts are prevented from sliding longitudinally rela ⁇ tive to each other.
  • the various binder backs according to the invention may be carried out in such a way that the side portion of eithe back part has internally arranged flanges or grooves for th insertion of the forks of a fork device or such that the back portion of either back part has internally arranged flanges or grooves for fastening the lock details of a locking device for holding together the back parts in close or half-closed position.
  • binder backs are so made that the back parts, preferably the back portions thereof, have external longi- tudinal grooves for retaining a label, a handle for with ⁇ drawal of the binder from a shelf or the like.

  • the lock piece is pushed on from one end of the back until a bent-down tongue 18 will abut the ends of the gear rolls 14, 24, whereupon the flap in the other end of the lock piece is bent down outside the gear rolls.
  • binders with lock pieces of metal are not silent but rattle, which is caused by the play provided between the lock piece and the two gear rolls.
  • the lock piece may be made of plastic material according to another embodiment of the invention. In that case, when the binder is ready for mounting in the position shown i Fig.
  • Fig. 2 also shows the binder locking means 40 which comprises a lock plate 41 and a lock arm 42.

Abstract

Un dos pour classeurs de documents comprend deux parties dorsales longitudinales, reliées de façon pivotante (10, 20), comprenant chacune une section dorsale (11, 21) perpendiculaire à une section latérale (12, 22). Les sections latérales (12, 22) sont munies à leur bord libre de moyens (51, 52) de fixation des côtés du classeur, et les parties dorsales (11, 21) sont reliées de façon pivotante par une articulation (4). Chaque partie dorsale (10, 20) se compose d'une pièce unique ayant une section transversale constante sur toute sa longueur, consistant de préférence en une pièce extrudée en métal ou en matière plastique. La section dorsale (11, 21) de chaque partie dorsale (10, 20) comporte à son bord libre des moyens complémentaires et agissant ensemble, des moyens d'articulation (14, 24, 28) adaptés de façon à constituer un moyen de pivotement (4) entre les parties dorsales. Chaque partie dorsale (10, 20) comporte sur toute sa longueur au moins un élément-guide intérieur, ayant la forme d'une bride ou d'une rainure (19, 29, 43, 47) et adapté pour supporter fermement des dispositifs classeurs, tels que des fourches (30) ou des boucles (40) de classeur. Chaque partie dorsale (10, 20) comporte sur le rebord extérieur libre de la section latérale (12, 22) des éléments-guides (51, 52) permettant d'insérer les côtés du classeur (6, 5).
