- a hanging file 1 has been illustrated which is constituted, in a known manner, by a pocket 2 formed by a folded sheet 3 and into which documents of the letter or similar type can be introduced laterally or vertically.
- the sheets 3 are generally made of cardboard but, for reasons of strength, it may be preferable to manufacture them, for example, from plastic and, at least their upper edges 4 as well as possibly one of their side edges 5, have perforations 6 whose role will be better understood from the description below.
- suspension rods 7 are fixed to the upper edges 4 of the sheet 3 and have at their ends notches 8 directed downwards and constituting hooks for mounting the hanging files on the side rails of a storage unit. , not shown.
- the suspension rod 7 which is generally formed of a piece of injected or molded plastic, and in particular of polypropylene, comprises two adjacent strips 10, 11 and connected together by a zone 12 of lower resistance and delimiting a fold line.
- the strip 10 comprises at least one male piece or tenon 13 to which a female piece or eyelet 14 formed in the strip 11 corresponds.
- the strip 10 of the suspension rod 7 has a succession of tenons 13 and / or eyelets 14 to which the same number of eyelets 14 and tenons 13 would correspond respectively. of band 11.
- each stud 13 cannot in any event be greater than that of the perforations 6 provided in the upper edges 4, and that each stud must have a perforation 6 and an eyelet 14 corresponding.
- the hanging file 1 may, in addition, include labels 15 (fig. 4a) and 16 (fig. 4b) making it possible to index the hanging files both horizontally and vertically as can be seen from the fig. 1.
- the label 15 has the shape of a pair of pliers with two branches 15a, 15b which can be formed on a part of the label 15, as shown, or over the entire length of the latter, and at least the one of the branches has a hole and preferably two holes 15c. It is thus possible to clip the label 15 onto the suspension rod 7, the head of one of the studs 13 returning to the hole 15c of the label (fig. 1). If more than one hole 15c is provided on the branches of the label, it is necessary for the interval between the holes 15c to correspond to that between two studs 13 of the rod.
- the label 16 also has the shape of a clamp with two branches 16a, 16b similar to the branches 15a, 15b of the label 15, and at least one protuberance 16c is provided on one of the branches, this protuberance penetrating into a perforation 6 of the side edges of the pocket 2 when the label 16 is clipped onto these side edges (fig. 1).
- the protrusion 16c of the label 16 thus plays the same attachment role as the hole 15c of the label 15 and the same remarks apply with regard to both the number and the location of the protrusions and the arrangement of the branches 16a, 16b.
- suspension rods 7 In order to allow a connection of two adjacent files side by side, provision can be made for the suspension rods 7 to have hooking elements at their ends.
- a female element or eyelet 17 similar to the eyelets 14 of the preceding figures is provided for example above one of the hooks 8 at one end of the suspension rod 7 whose other end is provided with a male element 18 similar to tenon 13 and also provided for example above the other hook 8 of the suspension rod 7.
- Fig. 6 shows a connection using the hooking elements of the invention of two hanging files produced according to FIG. 1.
- the male element 18a of the suspension rod 7a of one of the hanging files enters the eyelet 17b of the suspension rod 7b of the other file, and, likewise, the male element 18b of the hanging rod 7b of the adjacent backrest enters the eyelet 17 of the hanging rod 7a.
- hooking elements thus described allow a connection, preferably removable, of several hanging files placed adjacent to each other side by side, and these hooking elements which are thus of the so-called "press button” type, are formed either directly by molding of the suspension rod at the same time as the pins 13 and eyelets 14, or are incorporated into the suspension rod by any suitable process after manufacture of this part.
- the pins of the bar 10a of the lower suspension rod 7c penetrate into the eyelets of the bar 11b of the upper suspension rod 7d passing through perforations 6 of one of the upper edges 4 of the first suspension file 1a.
- tenons of the bar 10b of the upper suspension rod 7d penetrate into the eyelets of the bar 11a of the lower suspension rod 7c passing through perforations 6 of one of the upper edges 4 of the second file 1b.
- a single rod 7 ′ has likewise been provided connecting together two adjacent hanging files 1 a and 1 c, the rod 7 ′ then being placed astride the upper adjacent edges 4 of the files 1 a and 1 c whose perforations 6 are arranged the one in front of the others.

Abstract
Description
Les dossiers suspendus à accès latéral ou vertical sont constitués par des poches formées chacune par une feuille pliée en carton ou matière analogue et dans lesquelles des documents à classer peuvent être introduits. Les dossiers sont soutenus par des crochets placés à l'extrémité de tringles auxquelles sont fixés les bords supérieurs de la feuille constituant le dossier, ces crochets reposant sur des rails latéraux appartenant à un meuble de rangement.The hanging files with lateral or vertical access consist of pockets each formed by a folded sheet of cardboard or similar material and into which documents to be filed can be introduced. The files are supported by hooks placed at the end of rods to which are fixed the upper edges of the sheet constituting the file, these hooks resting on side rails belonging to a storage unit.
On connaît ainsi par le brevet français N° 1 330 836 et son premier certificat d'addition N° 93 346 ainsi que par le brevet français 78 10729 publié sous le N° 2 422 508, des dossiers suspendus comprenant une tringle constituée par un fil rigide de section ronde retenu par collage dans un repli de chacun des bords supérieurs de la feuille formant la poche du dossier suspendu, ce fil rigide étant associé à des embouts d'accrochage qui sont emmanchés à ses extrémités et comportent une languette plate engagée dans ledit repli et rendue solidaire de celui-ci, soit par rivetage, soit par collage.There are thus known from French patent N ° 1,330,836 and its first certificate of addition N ° 93,346 as well as from French patent 78 10729 published under N ° 2,422,508, hanging files comprising a rod constituted by a wire rigid round section retained by gluing in a fold of each of the upper edges of the sheet forming the pocket of the hanging file, this rigid wire being associated with attachment end pieces which are fitted at its ends and have a flat tongue engaged in said folded back and made integral therewith, either by riveting or by gluing.
Les diverses réalisations connues des dossiers suspendus exigent ainsi la réalisation de divers éléments dont le montage doit se faire en usine et qui ne peuvent pas être proposés en kit à la clientèle.The various known embodiments of the suspended files thus require the production of various elements, the assembly of which must be done in the factory and which cannot be offered in kit form to the customers.
La présente invention a notamment pour but de simplifier la fabrication et le montage des dossiers, en permettant l'utilisation pour la tringle et le crochet, d'une pièce en matière plastique injectée qui en se rabattant sur elle-même emprisonne les bords supérieurs de la poche du dossier suspendu, poche dans laquelle des perforations ont été prévues permettant son accrochage irréversible avec la pièce en matière plastique.The object of the present invention is in particular to simplify the manufacture and assembly of the files, by allowing the use for the rod and the hook, of a piece of injected plastic material which, by folding back on itself, traps the upper edges of the pocket of hanging file, pocket in which perforations have been provided allowing its irreversible attachment to the plastic part.
Ce système permet d'utiliser toute sorte de matériau pour constituer la poche, puisqu'aucun procédé de collage ou de soudure n'est nécessaire.This system makes it possible to use any kind of material to constitute the pocket, since no gluing or welding process is necessary.
De plus, il permet de vendre le produit en kit aux consommateurs, car la pièce en matière plastique et la poche peuvent être montées très facilement de manière manuelle par l'acheteur de manière à réaliser un dossier suspendu.In addition, it makes it possible to sell the product in kit form to consumers, because the plastic part and the pocket can be very easily mounted manually by the buyer so as to produce a hanging file.
On connaît cependant un dossier suspendu constitué d'une feuille pliée formant poche et d'une tringle de suspension montée sur le bord supérieur de la feuille pliée, la feuille comportant des perforations au moins sur le bords supérieur. Une telle réalisation ressort d'ailleurs du document DE-A-25 34 690.However, a hanging file is known which consists of a folded sheet forming a pocket and a hanging rod mounted on the upper edge of the folded sheet, the sheet comprising perforations at least on the upper edges. Such an embodiment is moreover apparent from document DE-A-25 34 690.
Conformément à l'invention, le dossier suspendu est constitué d'une feuille pliée formant poche et de deux tringles de suspension montées sur les bords supérieurs de la feuille pliée; la tringle de suspension est formée d'une seule pièce et est constituée de deux bandes reliées entre elles sur une zone délimitant une ligne de pliage, la première de ces deux bandes comprenant des tenons et la seconde comprenant des oeillets faisant face aux tenons, le nombre des tenons étant au plus égal au nombre des perforations desdits bords supérieurs et la disposition des tenons correspondant à au moins certaines desdites perforations, de sorte que les tenons de la première bande pénètrent, après pliage de la tringle autour d'un desdits bords supérieurs, dans des oeillets de la seconde bande en passant à travers-lesdites perforations.According to the invention, the hanging file consists of a folded sheet forming a pocket and two hanging rods mounted on the upper edges of the folded sheet; the suspension rod is formed in one piece and consists of two bands connected together on an area delimiting a fold line, the first of these two bands comprising tenons and the second comprising eyelets facing the tenons, the number of the pins being at most equal to the number of perforations of said upper edges and the arrangement of the pins corresponding to at least some of said perforations, so that the pins of the first strip penetrate, after folding the rod around one of said upper edges , in eyelets of the second strip passing through said perforations.
Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit.Various other characteristics of the invention will also emerge from the detailed description which follows.
Des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention sont représentées, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs au dessin annexé.Embodiments of the subject of the invention are shown, by way of nonlimiting examples in the appended drawing.
La fig. 1 représente de manière schématique un dossier suspendu conforme à l'invention.Fig. 1 schematically represents a hanging file according to the invention.
La fig. 2 représente une coupe partielle de la tringle de suspension du dossier suspendu de la fig. 1.Fig. 2 shows a partial section of the hanging rod of the hanging folder of FIG. 1.
La fig. 3 représente en coupe l'accrochage de la tringle de suspension avec l'un des bords supérieurs de la poche du dossier suspendu de la fig. 1.Fig. 3 shows in section the attachment of the hanging rod with one of the upper edges of the pocket of the hanging file of FIG. 1.
Les fig. 4a et 4b représentent en détail deux types d'étiquettes illustrées à la fig. 1 en position montée.Figs. 4a and 4b show in detail two types of labels illustrated in FIG. 1 in mounted position.
La fig. 5 représente plus particulièrement les extrémités, en forme de crochets, de la tringle de suspension du dossier suspendu de la fig. 1.Fig. 5 shows more particularly the ends, in the form of hooks, of the hanging rod of the hanging folder of FIG. 1.
La fig. 6 représente une vue partielle de dessus de l'accrochage de deux dossiers suspendus adjacents.Fig. 6 shows a partial top view of the attachment of two adjacent hanging files.
La fig. 7 représente deux formes de réalisation de la liaison de deux dossiers adjacents au moyen de tringles de suspension semblables à celles du dossier de la fig. 1.Fig. 7 shows two embodiments of the connection of two adjacent files by means of suspension rods similar to those of the file of FIG. 1.
A la fig. 1, on a illustré un dossier suspendu 1 qui est constitué, de manière connue, par une poche 2 formée par une feuille 3 pliée et dans laquelle des documents du type lettres ou analogues peuvent être introduits de manière latérale ou verticale.In fig. 1, a hanging file 1 has been illustrated which is constituted, in a known manner, by a
Les feuilles 3 sont généralement réalisées en carton mais, pour des raisons de résistance, on peut préférer les fabriquer, par exemple, en matière plastique et, au moins leurs bords supérieurs 4 ainsi qu'éventuellement un de leurs bords latéraux 5, présentent des perforations 6 dont le rôle sera mieux compris de la description ci-après.The
De même, les tringles de suspension 7 sont fixées aux bords supérieurs 4 de la feuille 3 et comportent à leurs extrémités des encoches 8 dirigées vers le bas et constituant des crochets pour le montage des dossiers suspendus sur des rails latéraux d'un meuble de rangement, non représenté.Similarly, the
Conformément à l'invention, et comme cela apparaît plus particulièrement aux fig. 2 et 3, la tringle de suspension 7 qui est en général formée d'une pièce en matière plastique injectée ou moulée, et notamment en polypropylène, comprend deux bandes 10, 11 adjacentes et reliées entre elles par une zone 12 de plus faible résistance et délimitant une ligne de pliage. En outre, la bande 10 comprend au moins une pièce mâle ou tenon 13 auquel correspond une pièce femelle ou oeillet 14 formé dans la bande 11.In accordance with the invention, and as appears more particularly in FIGS. 2 and 3, the
Ainsi, et comme cela ressort bien de la fig. 3, lorsque la tringle 7 est pliée en pivotant sur la ligne de pliage 12 et que la bande 10 est donc rabattue sur la bande 11 autour des bords supérieurs 4 de la feuille 3, les tenons 13 pénètrent chacun dans un oeillet correspondant 14 en traversant une perforation des bords supérieurs 4 de la feuille 3.Thus, and as is clear from FIG. 3, when the
A ce sujet et bien que l'on ait représenté au dessin des dossiers à sept perforations, on peut prévoir un nombre différent de perforations, notamment selon la longueur des bords supérieures 4. Par exemple, pour des dossiers dont les bords supérieurs 4 présentent une longueur comprise entre environ 30 et 35 cm, on prévoit de préférence dix perforations.In this regard, and although the files with seven perforations have been shown in the drawing, a different number of perforations can be provided, in particular according to the length of the upper edges 4. For example, for files whose upper edges 4 have a length between approximately 30 and 35 cm, preferably ten perforations are provided.
On obtient ainsi, dans tous les cas, un accrochage pratiquement irréversible de la tringle de suspension 7 avec la poche 2 du dossier suspendu (voir fig. 1).One thus obtains, in all cases, a practically irreversible attachment of the
On ne sortirait évidemment pas du cadre de l'invention en prévoyant que la bande 10 de la tringle de suspension 7 présente une succession de tenons 13 et/ou d'oeillets 14 auxquels correspondrait respectivement un même nombre d'oeillets 14 et de tenons 13 de la bande 11.It would obviously not go beyond the scope of the invention to provide that the
Il y a lieu cependant de noter que le nombre de tenons 13 ne peut en tout état de cause être plus grand que celui des perforations 6 prévues dans les bords supérieurs 4, et qu'à chaque tenon doit correspondre une perforation 6 et un oeillet 14 correspondant.It should however be noted that the number of
Le dossier suspendu 1 conforme à l'invention peut, en outre, comporter des étiquettes 15 (fig. 4a) et 16 (fig. 4b) permettant d'indexer les dossiers suspendus tant horizontalement que verticalement comme on le voit d'ailleurs à la fig. 1.The hanging file 1 according to the invention may, in addition, include labels 15 (fig. 4a) and 16 (fig. 4b) making it possible to index the hanging files both horizontally and vertically as can be seen from the fig. 1.
A cet effet, l'étiquette 15 présente la forme d'une pince à deux branches 15a, 15b pouvant être formée sur une partie de l'étiquette 15, comme représentée, ou sur toute la longueur de cette dernière, et au moins l'une des branches présente un trou et de préférence deux trous 15c. Il est ainsi possible de clipser l'étiquette 15 sur la tringle de suspension 7, la tête de l'un des tenons 13 rentrant dans le trou 15c de l'étiquette (fig. 1). Si l'on prévoit plus d'un trou 15c sur les branches de l'étiquette, il est nécessaire que l'intervalle entre les trous 15c corresponde à celui entre deux tenons 13 de la tringle.For this purpose, the
De même, l'étiquette 16 présente également la forme d'une pince à deux branches 16a, 16b semblables aux branches 15a, 15b de l'étiquette 15, et au moins une protubérance 16c est prévue sur l'une des branches, cette protubérance pénétrant dans une perforation 6 des bords latéraux de la poche 2 lorsque l'étiquette 16 est clipsée sur ces bords latéraux (fig. 1). La protubérance 16c de l'étiquette 16 joue ainsi le même rôle d'accrochage que le trou 15c de l'étiquette 15 et les mêmes remarques s'appliquent en ce qui concerne tant le nombre et l'emplacement des protubérances que la disposition des branches 16a, 16b.Likewise, the
De manière à permettre une liaison de deux dossiers adjacents côte à côte, on peut prévoir que les tringles de suspension 7 présentent à leurs extrémités des éléments d'accrochage.In order to allow a connection of two adjacent files side by side, provision can be made for the
Ainsi, et comme cela est représenté schématiquement à la fig. 5, un élément femelle ou oeillet 17 semblable aux oeillets 14 des figures précédentes est prévu par exemple au-dessus d'un des crochets 8 à une extrémité de la tringle de suspension 7 dont l'autre extrémité est munie d'un élément mâle 18 semblable au tenon 13 et également prévu par exemple au-dessus de l'autre crochet 8 de la tringle de suspension 7.Thus, and as shown schematically in FIG. 5, a female element or
La fig. 6 montre une liaison à l'aide des éléments d'accrochage de l'invention de deux dossiers suspendus réalisés selon la fig. 1. Ainsi, l'élément mâle 18a de la tringle de suspension 7a d'un des dossiers suspendus pénètre dans l'oeillet 17b de la tringle de suspension 7b de l'autre dossier, et, de même, l'élément mâle 18b de la tringle de suspension 7b du dossier adjacent pénètre dans l'oeillet 17 de la tringle de suspension 7a.Fig. 6 shows a connection using the hooking elements of the invention of two hanging files produced according to FIG. 1. Thus, the male element 18a of the suspension rod 7a of one of the hanging files enters the
Les éléments d'accrochage ainsi décrits permettent une liaison, de préférence amovible, de plusieurs dossiers suspendus placés de manière adjacente côte à côte, et ces éléments d'accrochage qui sont ainsi du type dit à "bouton pression", sont formés soit directement par moulage de la tringle de suspension en même temps que les tenons 13 et oeillets 14, ou sont incorporés à la tringle de suspension par un quelconque procédé approprié après fabrication de cette pièce.The hooking elements thus described allow a connection, preferably removable, of several hanging files placed adjacent to each other side by side, and these hooking elements which are thus of the so-called "press button" type, are formed either directly by molding of the suspension rod at the same time as the
A la fig. 7 on a représenté deux autres façons, conformes à l'invention, de relier deux à deux des dossiers suspendus adjacents.In fig. 7 there are shown two other ways, in accordance with the invention, of connecting two by two of the adjacent hanging files.
En A, deux tringles semblables à celles des figures précédentes sont placées à cheval sur les bords opposés de deux dossiers adjacents 1a, 1b, une des tringles étant placée en dessous et l'autre au-dessus en emprisonnant entre elles les deux bords supérieurs des dossiers 1a et 1b.In A, two rods similar to those of the preceding figures are placed astride the opposite edges of two
Ainsi, les tenons de la barre 10a de la tringle de suspension inférieure 7c pénètrent dans les oeillets de la barre 11b de la tringle de suspension supérieure 7d en passant par des perforations 6 de l'un des bords supérieurs 4 du premier dossier suspendu la. De même, les tenons de la barre 10b de la tringle de suspension supérieure 7d pénètrent dans les oeillets de la barre 11a de la tringle de suspension inférieure 7c en passant par des perforations 6 de l'un des bords supérieurs 4 du second dossier 1b.Thus, the pins of the
En B, on a de même prévu une tringle unique 7' reliant ensemble deux dossiers suspendus adjacents 1a et 1c, la tringle 7' étant alors placée à cheval sur les bords adjacents supérieurs 4 des dossiers 1a et 1c dont les perforations 6 sont disposées les une en face des autres.In B, a
Dans cette réalisation, les tenons de la barre 10' de la tringle 7' pénètrent dans les oeillets de la barre 11' en passant par certaines au moins des perforations 6.In this embodiment, the tenons of the bar 10 'of the rod 7' penetrate the eyelets of the bar 11 'passing through at least some of the
Le système selon l'invention permet d'utiliser toute sorte de matériau pour constituer la poche du dossier, puisqu'aucun procédé de collage ou de soudure, n'est nécessaire. Il suffit en effet de rabattre sur elle-même la pièce en matière plastique formant la tringle de suspension.The system according to the invention makes it possible to use any kind of material to constitute the folder pocket, since no gluing or welding process is necessary. It suffices to fold down on itself the plastic part forming the hanging rod.
De plus, les éléments constitutifs du dossier suspendu peuvent être vendus en kit aux consommateurs, car la pièce en matière plastique et la poche peuvent être montées très facilement de manière manuelle par l'acheteur.In addition, the components of the hanging file can be sold as a kit to consumers, because the plastic part and the pocket can be very easily mounted manually by the buyer.
L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation représentés et décrits en détail car diverses modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir de son cadre.The invention is not limited to the embodiments shown and described in detail since various modifications can be made thereto without departing from its scope.
