As in the inventions described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, a binding tool is attached to a cover, and a so-called file or binder that is inserted by inserting the binding portion of the binding tool into a binding hole of a binding object is thin. And lightweight, and is suitable for binding a plurality of objects to be bound together.

However, among the binding objects once bound, when the binding object is not located in the uppermost layer but is located near the middle layer, it is necessary to take out the binding object, or between the overlapping binding objects, When adding a binding object and binding it, after removing the binding object positioned above the desired position from the already bound binding object, taking out and adding the binding object, There is a problem that it is necessary to re-bind the removed object to be bound, the take-out operation and the binding operation are complicated, and the workability is not good.

On the other hand, as in the invention described in Patent Document 3, in a configuration in which a binding object is taken out and added by opening and closing a ring that passes through a binding hole of the binding object, a binding object other than a desired binding object is used. Since the ring is opened while the object is moved along the ring, and a desired object can be taken out and added, it is not necessary to remove the other object to be bonded once.

However, since the binding tool having the configuration of Patent Document 3 described above has a complicated structure, is large in size, and is heavy, durability is required for the cover to be mounted. As a result, there is a problem that it is difficult to apply to a thin and lightweight file such as Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2.

Accordingly, when a desired binding object is taken out from a plurality of binding objects to be bound, or when a new binding object is added to a desired position among the plurality of binding objects to be bound. Even in such a case, there has been a demand for a binding tool and a file that can be easily taken out and bound and easily applied to a thin and lightweight configuration.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a binding tool and a file that can be easily taken out and bound, and can be easily applied to a thin and lightweight configuration.

The present invention relates to a substantially cylindrical binding tool for binding a binding object provided with a long through hole in one direction in a plan view, and includes a substantially cylindrical outer wall portion and a hollow portion located inside the outer wall portion. And the outer wall portion is inserted into the through hole and the object to be bound is bound.

Moreover, this invention comprises the binding tool as described in any one of Claims 1 thru | or 4, and the to-be-bound object which has a through-hole long in one direction located in the one end part vicinity, The outer wall part of the said binding tool is the said penetration The object to be bound is bound through the hole.

According to the present invention, the binding tool has a simple configuration including a substantially cylindrical outer wall portion, a hollow portion located inside the outer wall portion, and a communication portion provided on the outer wall portion and communicating with the hollow portion. In addition, since the outer wall portion is inserted into the through hole and the object to be bound is bound, the take-out operation and the binding operation are easy, and it is easy to apply to a thin and lightweight configuration.

Here, the cover body 4 includes a front cover 31 as a rectangular first cover, and a back cover 32 as a second cover having the same shape as the front cover 31. Further, a rectangular spine 33 having a longitudinal direction and a width direction is disposed between one side edge of the front cover 31 and one side edge of the back cover 32. The spine cover 33, the front cover 31, and the back cover 32 are integrally connected via a first hinge 34.

The front cover 31 and the back cover 32 are in the vicinity of the first hinge 34 on the spine cover 33 side and are a cover through-hole that is a long hole that is long in one direction in a plan view, for example, a substantially rectangular or substantially elliptical hole. 35 is provided.

The cover through hole 35 is disposed at a position corresponding to the through hole of the binding object 2 in a state where the binding object 2 is bound to the binding tool 3 together with the cover body 4, and the cross section of the outer wall portion 11. It corresponds to the shape and the shape of the through hole.

In the binding tool 3, the outer wall portion 11 is inserted into the through hole and the front cover through hole 35 in a state where the binding object 2 is disposed between the front cover 31 and the back cover 32. The cover body 4 and the object to be bound 2 are bound into the binding tool 3 by engaging the through hole and each cover through hole 35 in part.

In the state where the cover body 4 is bound in the binding tool 3 in this way, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the hollow portion 12 in which a part of the spine cover 33 in the longitudinal direction is the inner peripheral side of the outer wall portion 11. Located in.

As shown in FIG. 1, when closing the front cover 31 and the back cover 32, the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 can be bent with respect to the spine 33 by the first hinge 34.

The spine cover 33 has a second hinge 36 extending along the longitudinal direction at a substantially central portion in the width direction between the first hinge 34 on the front cover 31 side and the first hinge 34 on the back cover 32 side. Is provided.

The second hinge 36 is constituted by a linear folding curve provided over the entire length of the spine cover 33 in the longitudinal direction.

When opening the cover body 4 by turning the front cover 31 or the back cover 32, as shown in FIG. 3, the spine 33 in the hollow portion 12 of the binding tool 3 has the second hinge 36 and the inner surface side is opened. It is bent so as to protrude, and one side edge of the front cover 31 and one side edge of the back cover 32 approach each other.

On the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 on the front cover through hole 35 side, a straight folding line 37 is provided in parallel with the first hinge 34 over the entire length. The front cover 31 and the back cover 32 can be bent at a folding line 37 when turning.

Next, the operation and the like of the above embodiment will be described.

When taking out the binding object 2 into the file 1 or binding it, first, the cover body 4 is opened by turning the front cover 31 or the back cover 32.

Also, the object to be bound 2 is moved so as to rotate along the outer wall portion 11, and a desired page is opened as shown in FIG.

In a state where a desired page is opened, the detachable member 16 is slid to the other side in the axial direction of the outer wall portion 11 to be detached from the binding tool 3 to open the communication portion 15.

When taking out the object 2 to be bound, the desired object 2 is removed from the communication part 15 in the open state, and when the object 2 is to be bound, the object is bound from the communication part 15 in the open state. The through hole of the object 2 is inserted through the outer wall portion 11.

Thereafter, the concave portion 18 of the detachable member 16 and the convex portion 17 of the outer wall portion 11 are engaged, the detachable member 16 is slid to one side, the detachable member 16 is attached, the communication portion 15 is closed, The state where the binding 2 is bound is held.

According to the file 1, the binding tool 3 includes a substantially cylindrical outer wall portion 11, a hollow portion 12 positioned inside the outer wall portion 11, and a communication provided in the outer wall portion 11 and communicating with the hollow portion 12. Since it is a simple structure provided with the part 15, it is easy to apply to a thin and lightweight structure.

Further, since the through hole is inserted into and engaged with the outer wall portion 11, the object to be bound 2 is rotated along the outer wall portion 11 of the binding tool 3 to open a desired page, and the object to be bound is opened from the communication portion 15. 2 can be inserted and removed, and the take-out operation and the binding operation are easy.

Here, for example, in the conventional files such as the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 to Patent Document 3, a circular through hole is provided in the binding object, and the binding tool has a string-like or rod-like insertion member corresponding to the through-hole. Since the insertion member of the binding tool is inserted through each of the plurality of through holes, the lateral movement of the binding tool was prevented, but in such a conventional configuration, It is necessary to insert a plurality of insertion members through the plurality of through holes, and the binding operation is complicated.

On the other hand, according to the file 1 described above, even if only one through hole is provided in the object to be bound 2, the through hole of the object to be bound 2 and the outer wall portion 11 inserted through the through hole are included. Since the cross-sectional shape of each of the binding objects 2 is long and both are long, the object to be bound 2 is in the axial direction of the binding tool 3 in a state where the outer wall portion 11 is inserted into and engaged with the through hole. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the binding tool 3 from rotating in the lateral direction. Moreover, since only the outer wall part 11 is inserted through one long through-hole, the object to be bound 2 can be easily positioned with respect to the binding tool 3, and the binding operation is easy.

Since the binding tool 3 has the detachable detachable member 16, it is possible to switch between a continuous surface state and a discontinuous surface state by opening and closing the communication portion 15 by detachment of the detachable member 16. Workability is good and it is easy to keep the state in which the object 2 is bound.

Since the attachment / detachment member 16 is slidable along the axial direction of the outer wall portion 11, the attachment / detachment work of the attachment / detachment member 16 is easy.

Further, since the detachable member 16 is restricted from sliding outward from the one end portion 21 in the axial direction of the outer wall portion 11, the detachable member 16 is positioned with respect to the outer wall portion 11 in the mounted state of the detachable member 16. Cheap.

Furthermore, since the outer wall portion 11 and the detachable member 16 have mounting holding means for holding the mounting state of the detachable member 16, the mounting state of the detachable member 16 can be prevented from being released unexpectedly, and the binding tool 3 is covered. It is easy to maintain the state in which the binding 2 is bound.

The front cover body 4 has a front cover 31, a back cover 32, and a spine cover 33, and the front cover 31, the back cover 32, and the spine cover 33 are connected via the first hinge 34. When using 1, the cover body 4 is easy to open.

Here, the positional relationship between the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 differs depending on whether the cover 4 is opened or closed by the action of the first hinge 34. That is, when the front cover body 4 is opened and the angle between the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 is 180 °, the positional relationship in which the front cover through hole 35 of the front cover 31 and the front cover through hole 35 of the back cover 32 are most spaced apart. It becomes.

When the front cover 31, the back cover 32, and the spine 33 are in a 180 ° relationship, the distance between the cover through hole 35 of the front cover 31 and the cover through hole 35 of the back cover 32 is the spine 33. It is determined by the length in the width direction. If the length in the width direction of the spine cover 33 is large, the distance between the cover through hole 35 of the cover 31 and the cover through hole 35 of the back cover 32 may exceed the length of the inner diameter of the outer wall 11. With such a configuration, when the front cover body 4 is opened, the back cover 33 is attached to the inner periphery of the outer wall portion 11 before the front cover 31, the back cover 32, and the back cover 33 reach a relationship of 180 °. The cover 4 cannot be opened smoothly by touching the surface.

Therefore, by providing the second hinge 36 on the spine 33, the spine 33 is folded in the width direction by the second hinge 36 as shown in FIG. 3 when the cover 4 is opened. Even if the distance between the first hinge 34 on the 31 side and the first hinge 34 on the back cover 32 side can be shortened and the angle between the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 is 180 °, the back cover 33 and the outer wall portion 11 can be prevented from contacting the inner peripheral surface, and the cover body 4 can be opened smoothly. Further, by adopting such a configuration, the diameter of the outer wall portion 11 is increased according to the length of the spine cover 33 in the width direction in order to prevent contact between the spine cover 33 and the inner peripheral surface of the outer wall portion 11. This is not necessary, and the size of the binding tool 3 can be minimized.

Further, since the folding lines 37 are provided on the front cover 31 and the back cover 32, the front cover 31 and the back cover 32 can be opened at the folding lines 37 when the cover body 4 is opened. The positional relationship between 31 and the back cover 32 is unlikely to change, and the cover body 4 can be easily opened.

In the above-described embodiment, the file 1 has a configuration in which the cover body 4 is bound together with the object 2 to be bound to the binding tool 3. However, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the cover body 4 is bound. You may make it the structure which is not included.

The configuration is such that one through hole is provided in the object to be bound 2, one cover through hole 35 is provided in the front cover 31, and one cover through hole 35 is provided in the back cover 32. However, the number of through holes and cover through holes 35 can be determined as appropriate.

Moreover, although the through-hole was provided in the edge part vicinity of the to-be-bound object 2, and it was set as the shape obstruct | occluded over the perimeter, it is not limited to such a structure, For example, a part of the to-be-bound object 2 starts from a part of through-hole. A notch or a notch may be provided up to the edge, and the outer wall 11 may be inserted through the through hole so as to push the outer wall 11 through the notch or notch. The same applies to the cover through hole 35.

The binding tool 3 is configured to have a substantially cylindrical shape, but is not limited to such a configuration. If the binding tool 3 has a substantially cylindrical shape, the shape can be appropriately determined.

The binding tool 3 has a configuration in which the detachable member 16 is provided. However, the binding device 3 is not limited to such a configuration. For example, the outer wall portion 11 is formed of a material having an elastic force, and is always in the circumferential direction of the outer wall portion 11. The one end portion 13 and the other end portion 14 approach each other by elastic force, and when the object 2 is bound, the outer wall portion 11 is elastically deformed to separate the one end portion 13 and the other end portion 14 from each other. You may make it.

Moreover, in the case of the configuration in which the detachable member 16 is provided, the configuration is not limited to the configuration in which the detachable member 16 is detachable from the outer wall portion 11 by sliding, and the detachable member 16 is detachable from the outer wall portion 11. Any configuration may be used.
