  • the present invention relates to soft or flexible binders allowing to collect sheets articulated to each other to form a volume.
  • soft or flexible binders for sheets comprising at least a first and a second cover flap, forming the main faces of the binding, and at least one edge perpendicular forming a connecting facet. These bindings are without handles.
  • the handle consists of a rigid stirrup formed of an external transverse bar secured to two rods sliding in perforations on the back and the ends of which are connected by an internal transverse locking bar. In position retracted, the external bar remains visible and protruding, and the rods rigid associated with the rigid locking bar are engaged towards inside the filing cabinet.
  • the rigid nature of the stirrup is incompatible with a flexible or flexible binding.
  • the problem proposed by the present invention is to design a new binding structure for sheets which could constitute itself a briefcase.
  • Another object of the invention is to design a structure particular handle particularly well suited for a combination with a soft or flexible binder for sheets. While ensuring good grip, the handle must allow the identification of the binding, and should not disturb the suppleness or flexibility of the binding.
  • Another object of the invention is to design such a binding that can be manufactured at low cost, and that is compatible with the traditional use of hanging file storage.
  • a binding for sheets according to the invention comprises at least a first and a second cover flap forming the main faces of the binding, and at at least one perpendicular slice forming a connecting facet, said perpendicular edge further comprising handle means retractable having a flexible longitudinal tongue, the central part of which is arranged outside the perpendicular edge and whose portions end cross two respective transverse slots of the wafer perpendicular, with retaining means to oppose the withdrawal complete with tongue end portions out of the transverse slots.
  • the retaining means allow sliding limited longitudinal end portions of the tongue in the transverse slots, between a retracted position in which the part tongue center is applied against the outer edge of the edge perpendicular, and a deployed position in which the central part of tongue is moved away from the external face of perpendicular edge and the retaining means oppose further sliding of the tongue end portions in the direction of their exit out of the transverse slots.
  • the retaining means comprise an arc slot in the respective end portion of longitudinal tongue and having its concavity turned towards the edge tongue end, to define a hooking tab coming from engage under the inside face of a perpendicular edge between the two transverse slots.
  • the first and the second part of cover are connected to each other, respectively by first and second parallel fold lines, to a first slice of connection comprising a series of I-slots in which can be engaged in binding rings, and the first cover flap is connects, opposite the connection edge, to a flap provided with means for selective attachment to the second cover flap, said flap having an intermediate portion constituting said perpendicular slice fitted with the retractable handle.
  • said tranche perpendicular provided with the retractable handle is a flap edge, consisting of a rectangular intermediate portion of the flap.
  • the second component cover is connected, by a third fold line, opposite to said second fold line, to a second connecting edge comprising a second series of I-slots in which can be engaged binding rings, said second connection edge is extending by a third cover flap to which it is connected by a fourth fold line.
  • the binding according to the invention includes the first and second cover flaps which are connected one to the other respectively by first and second fold lines parallel to a single perpendicular slice itself comprising the handle means.
  • a binding according to the invention comprises a first cover flap 1 and a second cover flap 2 each connected to a first connecting edge 5 respectively by a first fold line 3 and by a second fold line 4.
  • the first and second lines of fold 3 and 4 are parallel to each other, defining a first connection strip 5 rectangular.
  • the first connection section 5 comprises a series of I-shaped slots such as slot 6, into which can be engaged binding rings such as the ring 7.
  • the I-slots develop perpendicular to the fold lines 3 and 4, so that the rings 7 are coaxial and aligned along a central axis of rotation parallel to the fold lines 3 and 4.
  • the first cover flap 1 is connected, opposite the first connection section 5, to a flap 8 provided with means selective attachment 9 to the second cover flap 2.
  • the flap 8 is connects to the first cover flap 1 by an intermediate line of fold 10, and has a secondary fold line 11, to form, between the two fold lines 10 and 11, a flap edge 12, rectangular, associated with retractable handle means 31 opposite of its outer surface 13.
  • Sheets 14, or transparent pockets allowing the introduction of sheets have on their connecting edge T-notches engaged on the binding rings 7.
  • the sheet or pocket 14 has the notch 15 in T in which is engaged the binding ring 7 which is also engaged in slot 6 in I of the first connection section 5.
  • a binding ring 7 usable according to the present invention may have the shape as illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6, with a external surface 16 toric, two internal facets 17 and 18 coaxial cylindrical sides connecting to a central wall 19. Other forms of binding rings can however be used.
  • the binding In the deployed position as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the binding allows access to the sheets or sleeves 14, which can pivot around the rings 7.
  • the means selective attachment 9 comprise at least one arc slot 20 formed in the flap 8, the arcuate slot having its concavity turned towards the edge 21 of the flap 8, said arc slot 20 defining a tongue 120.
  • a corresponding rectilinear slot 22 parallel to the fold lines 3 and 4 and shaped to receive and retain the hooking tongue 120 formed through the slot 20 of the flap 8, as illustrated in FIG. 3.
  • the means selective attachment 9 have two arc slots such as the slot 20 and two rectilinear slots such as slot 22, distributing the attachment along the length of the edge 21 of the flap 8.
  • first and second cover flaps 1 and 2 connected to each other by a first connection section 5 with two fold lines 3 and 4, with a flap 8 with fold lines 10 and 11 and flap edge 12, and with selective attachment means 9.
  • a first series of rings of binding is engaged on the first connection section 5.
  • the second cover flap 2 is connects, by a third fold line 23 opposite said second fold line 4, to a second connection edge 24 comprising a second series of I-slots such as slot 25 in which binding rings such as ring 26 may be engaged.
  • rings 26 have the same shape as rings 7 of the first series binding rings.
  • the second connection section 24 extends by a third cover flap 27 to which it is connected by a fourth fold line 28.
  • this type of binding gives access to two series of sheets or sleeves transparent, namely a first series of sheets 14 and a second series of leaflets 48, which can be viewed simultaneously.
  • each of the two connection strips 5 and flap 12 may have a dimension only slightly larger than the diameter of the rings 7 or 26, without requiring a significant extra thickness.
  • this increases the capacity of binding in number of sheets, without significantly increasing the thickness overall binding.
  • a binding according to the invention may comprise, on at least one first and second cover flaps 1 and 2, extensions opposite axial lines 29 and 30 forming suspension hooks.
  • the extensions 29 and 30 are in the folded position of the binding, in extension of the edge occupied by the flap 8, so that the edge of flap 12 can reveal its outer face 13 above the binding when suspended, as shown in Figure 10.
  • the suspension hooks can be made with a removable suspension strip.
  • This removable suspension strip is formed by a rigid sheet on board comprising a series of T-notches engaged on the binding rings 7, and is extended by opposite axial extensions 29 and 30 forming the suspension hooks.
  • At least one of the perpendicular sections 12, connecting a first flap cover 1 and a flap 8, forms a facet of link which includes retractable handle means 31.
  • FIGS 11 to 13 illustrate an advantageous embodiment of these retractable handle means 31 according to the invention.
  • the retractable handle means 31 include a flexible longitudinal tongue, preferably elastically flexible, the central part 32 of which is arranged at the outside of the perpendicular section 12 and whose portions end 33 and 34 pass through two transverse slots 35 and 36 respective formed on the perpendicular edge 12 and separated one the other.
  • Retaining means 41 and 42 oppose the complete withdrawal of the tongue ends 33 and 34 out of transverse slots 35 and 36 when the central part 32 is pulled.
  • the retaining means allow sliding limited longitudinal end portions 33 and 34 of the tongue in the transverse slots 35 and 36, between a retracted position and a deployed position.
  • the part central tab 32 is spaced from the outer face 13 of edge perpendicular 12 and the retaining means 41 and 42 oppose a additional sliding of the tongue end portions 33 and 34 in the direction of their exit from the transverse slots 35 and 36.
  • each of the retaining means associated with one of the end portions 33 or 34 comprises a slot in arc, respectively 37 and 38, visible in FIG. 11, formed in the respective end portion 33 or 34 of longitudinal tongue and having its concavity turned towards the corresponding end edge 39 or 40 tongue, to define a hooking lug, respectively 41 or 42, engaging under the inner face 43 of perpendicular edge 12 between the two transverse slots 35 and 36.
  • the longitudinal tongue forming the handle 31 further comprises stop means for limiting the sliding of the end portions 33 and 34 of the tongue towards the inside of the slots transverse 35 and 36 beyond the retracted tongue position longitudinal.
  • the stop means can, for example, be constituted by two lateral shoulders, respectively 44 and 45 for the first tongue end, and 46 and 47 for the second end of tongue, between end portions 33 and 34 of reduced width and a central portion 32 of longitudinal tongue with increased width, as this is best seen in Figure 11.
  • the central tongue portion 32 longitudinal has a width greater than the length of the slots transverse 35 and 36, so that the lateral shoulders 44-47 are likely to come into abutment against the outer face 13 of the wafer perpendicular 12 in extension of the transverse slots 35 and 36.
  • the longitudinal tongue is elastically flexible and tends to rest, in the absence of bending stress, to return to a position in which it is flat. In this way, the retractable handle tends to return by itself to the retracted position.
  • the longitudinal tongue constituting the handle 31 can be produced by cutting a polypropylene strip of thickness included between 0.2 and 0.4 mm approximately.
  • the binding itself i.e. the first and second cover flaps 1 and 2 as well as the tranche perpendicular 12 holding the handle, can also be made up of from a polypropylene sheet of thickness between 0.2 and About 0.4 mm.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to produce a binding of sheets which in itself constitutes a document holder, thanks to the presence of a external handle.
  • the fully retractable nature of the handle allows using the binding as a hanging folder or as a folder can be stored in a traditional way.
  • the thinness of the handle in retracted position allows a priori all uses recognized commercial binders, and allows you to use the slice perpendicular 12 which carries it as the identification face of the binding by receiving a label or a ribbon to be labeled.
  • the character flexible handle is compatible with flexible binding itself, and does not oppose the bending of the binding, including its complete 360 ° turnaround.
