• this back 2c being connected to the main panels 2a, 2b respectively by two hinges 2d formed for example by two thin lines of the blanket 2 extending from both sides. other back 2c and along it.
• each of the main panels 2a, 2b can be extended at its opposite edge to the back 2c, by a hinged flap 2, connected to the corresponding main panel by a hinge 2f formed for example by a thin line of the cover 2.
• the flaps 2e may each have a width equal to about half the thickness of the stationary article 1 and are foldable towards each other at 90 ° with respect to the main panels 2a. , 2b, so as to be able to come into mutual contact wafer against wafer when the stationery item 1 is closed.
• the flaps 2e may contain permanent magnets 2g or other magnetic members, which are arranged facing each other from one flap 2e to the other and which are adapted to attract while maintaining the slices of the flaps 2e applied the against each other by magnetic attraction in the closed position of article 1. In the open position of the article 1, these flaps can unfold to position themselves flat in the extension of the main panels 2a, 2b.
• the inner face of the back 2c of the cover 2 is provided with magnetic means which, in the example considered here, may consist in particular of one or more permanent magnets, for example two permanent magnets 3a, 3b in the example shown (see Figure 1).
• the cover 2 can be made in any known manner, in a rigid or flexible material.
• said cover 2 may comprise a thick outer layer 4 made for example of cardboard or other, optionally coated with an outer covering of leather, textile, paper or other (not shown), this thick layer 4 being further coated with an interior dressing 5 paper or other.
• This inner liner has a relatively small thickness, for example 0.5 mm or less.
• the aforementioned magnets 3a, 3b can be glued in recesses 4a of the thick layer 4 and covered towards the inside of the article 1 by the inner lining 5 which is in contact with said magnets.
• the magnets 3a, 3b can be fixed in any other way on the inside of the back 2c of the cover 2.
• the stationery item 1 also comprises a refill 6, forming a stack of paper sheets 6g stacked and assembled by a binding 7.
• the refill 6 has:
• a front main face 6a and a rear main face 6b formed for example by sheets of paper identical to the other sheets 6g or thicker,
• slices 6c-6f defining the thickness of the refill 6, these slices comprising a back 6c, an upper slice 6d or head slice, a lower slice 6e or slice tail, and a slice 6f opposite the back, said slice gutter.
• the pages 6g of the refill 6 are interconnected by a binding 7 at the back 6c of the refill.
• This binding 7 can be of any known type; it may for example comprise a glued canvas fixed by gluing and possibly a seam on the edge of the pages 6g located at the back 6c.
• the refill 6b further comprises a flexible cover strip 8 of relatively small thickness (for example less than 1 mm, preferably of the order of 0.5 mm or less) which covers the binding 7 and at least a portion of the front and rear main faces 6a, 6b.
• This covering strip 8 may be constituted for example by a canvas or a sheet of paper, or the like.
• this cover strip 8 more precisely comprises:
• the back portion 8a of this cover strip 8 incorporates magnetic means which are adapted to be attracted by the magnetic means of the back 2c of the cover 2, so as to allow a removable attachment of the refill 6 in the cover 2.
• the magnetic means of the cover strip 8 are permanent magnets 9a, 9b which are arranged facing the permanent magnets 3a, 3b of the cover and whose polarities are arranged so that the magnets 3a, 9a and 3b, 9b arranged in correspondence attract each other by magnetic attraction.
• magnets 9a, 9b may be replaced by any other piece of ferromagnetic material permanently magnetized or not, for example metal parts or magnetic materials obtained by mixing adhesive substances with magnetic particle powder or based on of ferrous metals, or a combination of these possibilities.
• the arrangement of the magnets 9a, 9b may possibly be asymmetrical with respect to a reversal of the charging around an axis perpendicular to the back 6c, that is to say with respect to a reversal of the refill 6 which would reverse the head wafer 6d and the tail wafer 6e.
• the magnets 3a, 3b or other magnetic members of the cover 2 would also be arranged asymmetrically, in correspondence with the magnets 9a, 9b. In this way, it performs a keying that requires the user to put the refill 6 in the right direction inside the cover 2, especially if the pages 6g of the refill include information that assume a predefined orientation of pages 6g (for example if article 1 is a diary or other).
• the remainder of the intermediate portion 8c defines with the sideband 8e in the margin of the back part 8a a second sub-portion of width / 2 (curvilinear width, as shown in FIG. 4) which is complementary to the first sub-portion of width ⁇ .
• this second longitudinal sub-portion of width / 2 forms a flexible connection between the back part 8a and the first sub-portion of width ⁇ .
• the width / 2 is significantly greater than the thickness e of the magnets 9a, 9b, this thickness e being measured perpendicular to the back portion 8a.
• the example shown shows a single refill 6 fixed on the cover 2, it should be understood that we can fix several refills next to each other.
• the refill 6 shown in FIG. 1 could be replaced by two refills each provided with magnetic members 9a, 9b at the back 6c to cooperate with the magnets 3a, 3b of the cover 2.
• the cover strip 108 may optionally be molded in one piece of thermoplastic material, making it possible to wrap or overcoat the magnetic member (s) 9a, 9b.
• the side portions 108b are flexibly connected to the back portion 108a which envelops the one or more magnets 9a.
• Each of the lateral portions 108b comprises, as previously, a free intermediate portion 108c and an end portion 108d fixed by gluing or otherwise to the main faces 6a, 6b of the page block 6.
• the magnetic material can also enter the composition of a cover strip 208 that can be fixed by its side portions 208b on the main faces of the page block 6g.
• the back portion 208a is in this case formed of a composite material with ferromagnetic powder material dispersed in a matrix.
• a magnetic member merged with the back portion 208a and manufactured in one piece with the side portions 208b, thinner and therefore more flexible than the back portion 208.
