Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、紙葉の側辺に開設された複数個の綴じ穴内に、リング状綴じ具の係止片が挿通されて綴じられていて、必要に応じて紙葉を簡単に綴じ具から剥がしたり、新しい紙葉を綴じ込むための差し換え作業が簡単に行えるようにしたリング綴じ冊子の構造に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来より、冊子の綴じ構造の一例として、針金をＵ字状に折り曲げることで形成した多数の係止片を、間隔をおいて連続的に立ち上がるように突設させて、こらの係止片を、切り込み線を有する紙葉の綴じ穴に挿通してからリング状に折り曲げて綴じる構造、また、ルーズリーフのようにバインダーを用いて紙葉を綴じる冊子の構造において、紙葉の側辺に設けられる綴じ穴を鈎形あるいはＬ字形に折り曲げておき、バインダーの係止片を綴じ穴の鈎部に係止させることで、紙葉がバインダーから外れないようにする綴じ構造が知られている（例えば、特許文献１、特許文献２）。
【０００３】
【特許文献１】
登録実用新案公報第３０２３０８０号（第１図、第２図、第３図、第４図）
【特許文献２】
実開昭４８−８１９１０号公報（図１，図２，図４）
【０００４】
上記の綴じ構造のうち、紙葉の綴じ穴に針金製の係止片を挿通するリング綴じ冊子は、頁のどの部分を開いても、それぞれの頁が安定よく平坦に開かれた状態で開かれるので、地図、楽譜、見本帳、料理・手芸の教則本などのようなものに広く利用されている。
【０００５】
【発明が解決すべき課題】
上記の冊子の綴じ構造のうち、ルーズリーフ形式によるものは、バインダーの爪形係止片を開閉することにより、必要な頁と不必要な頁との差し換えが可能なので、帳簿類に多く使用されるが、爪形の係止具を開閉するバインダーの価格が高くなるため、用途が制限され、地図、楽譜、料理・手芸の教則本などには適さないという問題点がある。
【０００６】
また、特許文献２に示した冊子のように、紙葉の綴じ穴を鈎形もしくはＬ字形とした構造では、紙葉を、鈎形綴じ穴の横溝内にバインダーの係止片が挿通するように横移動させてバインダー上に差し込んだ後に、紙葉を縦移動して係止片を綴じ穴の先端鈎部内へ係合し、この状態でバインダーの一端に設けたストッパーをロックすることで、紙葉の上下方向の動きを抑え、紙葉がバインダーの係止片から外れないように係止する構造である。そのため、不要になった紙葉をバインダーから外して、新しい紙葉を綴じ込むような差し換えは簡単にできるとしても、価格の高いバインダーを使用しなければならないので、実際には利用されないという問題点を有している。
【０００７】
一方、特許文献１に示されたリング綴じ構造では、綴じ具が針金を折り曲げただけの構造で、バインダーのような価格の高い綴じ具を必要としないため、経済的であるという利点を有しており、さらに、この構造では、紙葉の綴じ穴に紙葉側辺から切り込み線が設けられているので、綴じられた一部の紙葉が不要になったときは、その紙葉を綴じ穴から係止片が外れるようにして引っ張ると、切り込み線が係止片によって押し開かれて、綴じ穴内から係止片が外され、紙葉を簡単に剥がすことができるという利点を有する。
【０００８】
しかし、この綴じ構造では、全ての綴じ穴に設けられる切り込み線が、紙葉側辺から綴じ穴の中央部に向けて設けられていて、綴じ具の係止片がこれらの綴じ穴内の中央部に位置するように挿通されているために、敢えて紙葉を引き剥がす意図はないのに、誤って紙葉を強く引っ張った場合には、切り込み線が係止片により押し開かれて、綴じ穴内から係止片が外され、紙葉が比較的簡単に剥がれてしまって、この紙葉を再度綴じ具に綴じ込むのに苦労するという問題点を有している。
【０００９】
上記のように、綴じ具からいったん引き剥がされてしまった紙葉を、元通りに再度綴じ具へ綴じ込む作業であるとか、また、紙葉の差し換えが必要になって、不要な紙葉を剥がした後に、新しい紙葉を綴じ具に綴じ込む場合を考えた場合、このリング綴じ構造では、それぞれの係止片が１本の針金をＵ字状に折り曲げることで造られていて、それぞれの係止片のピッチ間隔が１ｃｍ程度と非常に短い間隔をおいて連続しており、Ａ４版の冊子の場合、綴じ部に合計３０個程度の係止片が突出しているために、紙葉を再度綴じ具に綴じ込むためには、この紙葉の一つ一つの綴じ穴を、指先で対応する一つ一つの係止片に嵌め合わせていかなければならず、１枚の紙葉を綴じ具に綴じ込むために３乃至５分の時間を必要とするという問題点を有している。
【００１０】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、従来におけるリング綴じ具により綴じられる冊子の紙葉が、通常の用法に従って使用されていれば、簡単に綴じ具から剥がれるおそれがなく、また、仮に紙葉が綴じ具から剥がれてしまった時でも、再度綴じ具へ綴じ込むための作業が簡単に能率よく行えるようにした新しい形式のリング綴じ冊子の提供を目的としたものである。
【００１１】
請求項１の発明は、そのための具体的手段として、側辺に沿って複数個の綴じ穴を設け、これらの綴じ穴と側辺との間に切り込み線を設けた紙葉を、綴じ穴に係止片を挿通して綴じるリング綴じ冊子であって、紙葉の側辺に、第１の綴じ穴では切り込み線を該綴じ穴の一方の側縁に沿った位置に設けることで、この切り込み線と第１の綴じ穴の横幅とにより第１の鈎型通路を形成し、前記第１の綴じ穴と隣接する第２の綴じ穴では、切り込み線を、前記第１の綴じ穴の切り込み線位置と対称位置である第２綴じ穴の他方の側縁に沿った位置に設けることで、この切り込み線と第２の綴じ穴の横幅とにより第１の鈎型通路と対称形の第２の鈎型通路を形成して、これらの第１の鈎型通路と第２の鈎型通路との間にＴ字形の余白部と、該Ｔ字形余白部の両側に両切り込み線を隔てて設けられる一対のＩ字形ストッパーとが配列されていることを特徴とする。
【００１２】
また、請求項２の発明は、紙葉の側辺に複数個の綴じ穴を開設し、これらの綴じ穴と紙葉側辺との間に綴じ穴の一方の側縁に沿った切り込み線を設けて、互いに対称的な第１の鈎型通路と第２の鈎型通路とを設けることで、紙葉の側辺に、Ｔ字形の余白部と、該Ｔ字形余白部の両側に両切り込み線を隔てて設けられる一対のＩ字形ストッパーとを配列させたリング綴じ冊子の紙葉と、この紙葉を差し換え頁用として、綴じ具の係止片に綴じ込むための綴じ補助具との組み合わせからなり、前記綴じ具が、新しく綴じられる紙葉の側辺におけるＴ字形余白部を、綴じ具における各係止片の間の上方に配列して、この新しく綴じられる紙葉のＴ字形余白部を、各係止片の下方内側へ押し下げることのできる多数の差込み突片を間隔をおいて突設した櫛状体からなっていることを特徴とする。
【００１３】
新しい紙葉を綴じ具に綴じ込むための綴じ補助具は、冊子の表面に綴じられるカバーの一部にスリーブ状の綴じ補助具保管用収納部を設けて、この収納部内に綴じ補助具が着脱自在に収納されるようにしておくことが好ましい。
【００１４】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に、本発明に係るリング綴じ冊子の構造を図面に示す第１の実施例について説明すると、図１乃至図３に示すように、この冊子の構造では、綴じ具として一本の針金５により多数のＵ字状係止片６が連続的に折り曲げられたダブルリング綴じ具４が使用される。
【００１５】
このダブルリング綴じ具４は、図１に示すように、連続する一本の針金５を用いて、紙葉１の側辺２に開設されたそれぞれの綴じ穴３内に挿通できるような幅Ｗ１を有するように、Ｕ字状に折り曲げられた一対の係止部材６ａ，６ｂからなる係止片６を形成し、前記係止片６の基端部７には、それぞれの綴じ穴３の間を横方向に連結する長さの接続片８を介して、さらに同様のＵ字状係止片６が多数平行に突出されるように折り曲げられている。
【００１６】
それぞれの紙葉１の側辺２には綴じ穴３が開設されている。この綴じ穴３は、綴じ具４の係止片６の突設位置と対応する位置に、係止片６の幅Ｗ１よりもやや大きく、係止片６を楽に挿通することのできる幅Ｗ３を有するようにして間隔をおいて、多数、側辺２に沿って開設されており、これらの綴じ穴３に、綴じ具４の係止片６が挿通されて紙葉１が綴じられるようになっている。そして、それぞれの綴じ穴３と紙葉側辺２との間には、係止片６の幅Ｗ１よりも小さい幅Ｗ２の切り込み線９が設けられている。
【００１７】
それぞれの綴じ穴３と側辺２との間に切り込み線９は、適宜の位置における第１の綴じ穴３Ａでは切り込み線９を該綴じ穴３Ａの一方の側縁３ａに沿った位置に設けることで、この切り込み線９と第１の綴じ穴３Ａの横幅とにより第１の鈎型通路１０Ａを形成し、また、前記第１の綴じ穴３Ａと隣接する第２の綴じ穴３Ｂでは、切り込み線９を、前記第１の綴じ穴３Ａの切り込み線位置と対称位置である第２綴じ穴３Ｂの他方の側縁３ｂに沿った位置に設けることで、この切り込み線９と第２の綴じ穴３Ｂの横幅とにより、第１の鈎型通路１０Ａと対称形の第２の鈎型通路１０Ｂを形成する。
【００１８】
上記のようにして第１の鈎型通路１０Ａと対称形の第２の鈎型通路１０Ｂとが形成されると、これら第１の鈎型通路１０Ａと第２の鈎型通路１０Ｂとの間にＴ字形の余白部１１と、該Ｔ字形余白部１１の両側に前記両切り込み線９、９を隔てて設けられる一対のＩ字形ストッパー１３，１３とが配列されることになる。
【００１９】
また、鈎型通路１０Ａと、これと対称形の鈎型通路１０Ｂとの間にＴ字形の余白部１１を形成すると、このＴ字形余白部１１は、図５ａに示したように、両端部１３の横方向への張り出し長さを大きく設定することができる。図５ｂは、特許文献１に示した従来の紙葉５０におけるＴ字形余白部５３を示したものであり、この従来のＴ字形余白部５３は、それぞれの切り込み線５１を綴じ穴５２の中央部に設けて、これらの切り込み線５１，５１の間に設けられるものであるため、各Ｔ字形の余白部５３は、両端部の横方向への張り出し長さが本件発明のＴ字形余白部１１よりもはるかに短くなっていることがわかる。
【００２０】
綴じ具４による紙葉１の綴じ込みに際しては、図１に示すように、所定枚数のの紙葉１の綴じ穴３内に綴じ具４の係止片６を挿通した後、図２のように各係止片６の先端部６ａを互いに基端部７の方向へリング状に折り曲げて、多数枚の紙葉１を綴じ具４に綴じ合わせる。紙葉１は綴じ具４を中心にして回転している限り、切り込み線９が開いて係止片６から剥がれることはなく、冊子綴じ具としての機能を適切に保持する。
【００２１】
上記のようにして、紙葉１の綴じ穴３内に綴じ具４の係止片６が挿通されと、図５ａに示すように、綴じ穴３と連通する切り込み線９は、それぞれの綴じ穴３のいずれか一方の側縁３ａ、３ｂに沿って設けられているので、一対の係止部材６ａ，６ｂからなるそれぞれの係止片６は、下方のＴ字形余白部１１における両端部１２の内側鈎部に確実に係止されることになる。
【００２２】
一方、図５ｂに示すように、従来例のＴ字形余白部５３では、切り込み線５１が綴じ穴５２の中央部に位置しているので、それぞれの綴じ穴５２内に挿通される一対の係止片５４は、切り込み線５１の真上部分に位置していて、係止片５４を構成する係止部材５４ａ，５４ｂの一本づつが、Ｔ字形余白部５３の短く横方向へ突出した両端部５５に僅かに係止されるだけなので、紙葉５０を矢印の方向へ引っ張ると、Ｔ字形余白部５３の両端部５５が係止部材５４ａ，５４ｂの外側へ簡単に外れて、紙葉を綴じ具から引き剥がす意図もないのに、紙葉が綴じ具から安易に剥がれてしまうという問題がある。
【００２３】
これに対して、図５ａのように、本件発明の綴じ具では、綴じ穴３と連通する切り込み線９を綴じ穴３のいずれか一方の側縁３ａ、３ｂに沿って設けることにより、Ｔ字形余白部１１の両端部１２を両側方向へ長く突出させているので、係止片６の２本の係止部材６ａ，６ｂが、ともに懐の深いＴ字形余白部１１の両端部１２の内側鈎部に余裕をもって係止される。
【００２４】
なお、その時、Ｔ字形余白部１１の両側のストッパー１３は、係止片６とその隣の係止片６との間に嵌り込んで、係止片６の横移動を確実に阻止するので、Ｔ字形余白部１１による係止片６の安定した係止作用と相俟って、紙葉が安易に剥がれることを防止し紙葉の綴じ作用を一層的確な状態とする。
【００２５】
その結果、紙葉１を矢印の方向へ僅かな力で引っ張っても、Ｔ字形余白部１１の両端部１２が、２本の係止部材６ａ，６ｂにしっかりと係止されているので、Ｔ字形余白部１１が係止片６から安易に剥がれてしまうという問題点を解消することができる。勿論、紙葉１を綴じ具から剥がす意志を持って引っ張れば、Ｔ字形余白部１１の両端部１２が、２本の係止部材６ａ，６ｂから外れるので、紙葉１を破損することなく綺麗に取り外すことができる。
【００２６】
本発明では、上記のように、紙葉が、綴じ具から安易に引き剥がれないようにすることを主たる目的とするが、この綴じ構造の実用性を高める手段として、綴じ具から剥がした紙葉の代わりに新しい紙葉を綴じ具に綴じ込むための綴じ補助具１４を備えている。
【００２７】
この綴じ補助具１４は、図６乃至図８に示すように、所定の長さを有する基端辺１５から、前記綴じ具係止片６の間に位置する紙葉１のＴ字形余白部１１とストッパー１３の表面を、各係止片６の間を通して上方から押さえることのできる幅Ｗ５をもった多数の差込み突片１６が、それぞれの突片１６の間に綴じ具係止片６の幅Ｗ１が嵌り込むような間隔をおいて突設された櫛状体からなっている。
【００２８】
この綴じ具補助具１４は、冊子の表面に設けられた厚手の紙葉からなるカバー１７にスリーブ状の保管用収納部１８を設けておいて、前記綴じ補助具１４をこの収納部１８内に引き出し自在に収納しておき、紙葉の差し換えが生じた時に収納部１８内から引き出して使用できるようになっている。なお、この綴じ具補助具１４の長さは、綴じ具４の全長に及ぶような長さであっても、あるいは、綴じ具４の半分の長さであってもよい。
【００２９】
冊子の発行後に、紙葉１の一部に印刷内容の修正があって、その頁を差し換える必要が生じた場合には、図４のように、古い紙葉１を係止片６から綴じ穴３が外れるように冊子の上方へ向けて引き剥した後、綴じ補助具１４を用いて、新しい紙葉１を綴じ具４に綴じ込む。
【００３０】
綴じ具４から取り外した紙葉１に換えて、新しい紙葉１を綴じ具４に綴じる際には、図７ａのように、新しい紙葉１を、挿入すべき頁と頁との間における各係止片６の上に、新しい紙葉１の切り込み線９が載置されるように配置して、カバー１７の内側の保管用収納部１８に収納されていた綴じ補助具１４を取り出して、この綴じ補助具１４の差込み突片１６を切り込み線９の間の余白部１１とストッパー１３の表面にあてがい、その位置でそれぞれの差込み突片１６を上方から下方へ押し込む。
【００３１】
すると、図７ｂおよび図８に示すように、それぞれの切り込み線９が押し開かれて余白部１１とストッパー１３が係止片６の内側下方へ押し込まれ、これに伴って余白部１１の両端部１２が、２本の係止部材５４ａ，５４ｂからなる係止片６の内側に嵌り込んで係止されることになり、この一回の操作によって多数の余白部１１とストッパー１３が一度に綴じ具４に綴じ合わされることになる。
【００３２】
綴じ補助具１４の長さを綴じ具４の全長と同じとした場合には、一回の操作で新しい紙葉の差し換えが行え、綴じ補助具１３の長さを綴じ具４の半分の長さとした場合には、綴じ具４上半分と下半分とに分けて二回操作することになるが、半分の長さとした場合でもごく短い時間で新しい紙葉およびカバーの差し換え作業を行うことができる。
【００３３】
【発明の効果】
本発明のリング綴じ冊子では、上記のように、紙葉の側辺に切り込み線を設けて、必要に応じて紙葉が綴じ具から剥がせるようにしたリング綴じ構造において、切り込み線を綴じ穴の一方の側縁に沿って設けることにより、Ｔ字形余白部の両端部を両側方向へ長く突出させたので、綴じ穴に挿通される係止片が、懐の深いＴ字形余白部の両端部内側に安定よく係止されるため、紙葉を不用意に引っ張っても紙葉が綴じ具から安易に剥がされないようにして、綴じ具としての機能を的確に維持することができる。
【００３４】
本発明の冊子のように、紙葉を頻繁に差し換える必要のある冊子としては、例えば、商品の品数が多く、新商品が生まれる都度、そのサンプルを遅滞なく顧客に提示する必要のある商品見本帳のような冊子があり、このような見本帳では、多数の頁をごく短期間のうちに能率的に差し換えできることが必要となる。そのような場合、本発明の綴じ補助具のようなものが備えられていない場合には、新頁の各係止片の間の余白部を指先で一つ一つ下方へ押し込んでいかなければならないため、一枚の新頁を差し換えるのに３乃至５分の時間と労力とを必要とするが、本発明の綴じ補助具によればこのような煩わしさを確実に解消することができ、季節ごとに異なる商品の種類を記載する見本帳などには最適であるほか、リング綴じ冊子の用途を大幅に拡張することができる。
【００３５】
さらに、紙葉およびカバーを差し換えるために必要なの綴じ補助具は、扁平な櫛状体からなっていて、利用しないときはカバーの裏面に設けた袋状の保管用収納部内に収納しておけば、冊子の通常の使用になんら邪魔にならず、しかも紛失のおそれがないので、頻繁に頁の差し換えを必要とする見本帳などには不可欠な用具とすることができる。
【００３６】
また、この発明の綴じ構造では、綴じ具から紙葉を自由に剥がすことができるため、この冊子の用途が終了して冊子を廃棄処分するさいには、紙葉と金属製の綴じ具とを分離して処分することができ、リサイクルに適するなどの効果を有している。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
According to the present invention, the locking pieces of the ring-shaped binding device are inserted and bound in a plurality of binding holes formed on the side of the sheet, and the sheet is easily peeled off from the binding device as necessary. The present invention relates to a structure of a ring-bound booklet that facilitates replacement work for binding a new paper sheet.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, as an example of a booklet binding structure, a large number of locking pieces formed by bending a wire into a U-shape are projected so as to stand up continuously at intervals, and these locking pieces are formed. In a structure in which the sheet is inserted into a binding hole of a sheet having a cut line and then bent into a ring shape and bound, or a booklet structure in which a sheet is bound using a binder like a loose leaf, the sheet is provided on a side of the sheet. A binding structure is known in which a binding hole is bent in a hook shape or an L-shape, and a binding piece of a binder is locked in a hook portion of the binding hole so that a sheet does not come off from the binder (for example, a binding structure is known). , Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2).
[0003]
[Patent Document 1]
Registered Utility Model Publication No. 3023080 (FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4)
[Patent Document 2]
JP-A-48-81910 (FIGS. 1, 2, and 4)
[0004]
Among the above binding structures, a ring-binding booklet in which a wire locking piece is inserted into a binding hole of a paper sheet is opened in a state where each page is stably and flatly opened regardless of which part of the page is opened. It is widely used for things such as maps, music scores, sample books, and cooking and handicraft instruction books.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Of the booklet binding structures described above, loose-leaf bindings are often used in books because the necessary and unnecessary pages can be replaced by opening and closing the claw-shaped locking pieces of the binder. However, since the price of the binder for opening and closing the claw-shaped locking device is increased, its use is restricted, and there is a problem that it is not suitable for maps, music scores, cooking and handicraft instruction books, and the like.
[0006]
Further, in a structure in which the binding holes of the paper sheets are hook-shaped or L-shaped, as in the booklet shown in Patent Document 2, the locking pieces of the binder are inserted into the lateral grooves of the hook-shaped binding holes. After the paper is moved laterally and inserted on the binder, the paper is moved vertically to engage the locking piece into the tip hook of the binding hole, and in this state, the stopper provided at one end of the binder is locked, The structure is such that the vertical movement of the paper sheet is suppressed and the paper sheet is locked so as not to come off from the locking piece of the binder. Therefore, even though it is easy to remove unnecessary paper sheets from the binder and bind new paper sheets, it is necessary to use expensive binders, so they are not actually used. have.
[0007]
On the other hand, the ring binding structure disclosed in Patent Literature 1 has an advantage that it is economical because the binding device is a structure obtained by simply bending a wire, and does not require an expensive binding device such as a binder. Further, in this structure, a cut line is provided in the binding hole of the paper sheet from the side of the paper sheet, so that when a part of the bound paper sheet becomes unnecessary, the paper sheet is bound. When the locking piece is pulled out of the hole, the cut line is pushed open by the locking piece, the locking piece is removed from the binding hole, and the paper sheet can be easily peeled off.
[0008]
However, in this binding structure, the cut lines provided in all the binding holes are provided from the side of the paper sheet toward the center of the binding hole, and the locking pieces of the binding tool are located at the central portions in the binding holes. The paper is inserted so that it is positioned at the right side, and there is no intention to peel the paper. However, there is a problem that the sheet is relatively easily peeled off, and it is difficult to bind the sheet again to the binding device.
[0009]
As mentioned above, it is an operation to bind the paper sheet once peeled off from the binding tool to the binding tool again, or it is necessary to replace the paper sheet, In a case where a new sheet is bound to a binding tool after being peeled off, in this ring binding structure, each locking piece is formed by bending a single wire into a U-shape, and each of the locking pieces is formed. The pitch of the locking pieces is continuous at a very short interval of about 1 cm. In the case of an A4-size booklet, a total of about 30 locking pieces protrude from the binding portion. In order to bind the sheet again, each binding hole of the sheet must be fitted with a corresponding one of the locking pieces with a fingertip. Has the problem that it takes 3 to 5 minutes to bind There.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, if a sheet of a booklet bound by a conventional ring binding device is used in accordance with a normal usage, there is no possibility that the sheet is easily separated from the binding device, and the sheet is temporarily separated from the binding device. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a new type of ring-bound booklet that can easily and efficiently perform the work of re-binding to the binding device even when the book is bound.
[0011]
According to the invention of claim 1, as a specific means therefor, a plurality of binding holes are provided along the side, and a paper sheet provided with a cut line between these binding holes and the side is attached to the binding hole. This is a ring-bound booklet that is inserted and bound by a locking piece, and a cut line is provided at a position along one side edge of the binding hole on a side of the paper sheet and in a first binding hole. A first hook-shaped passage is formed by the line and the width of the first binding hole, and in the second binding hole adjacent to the first binding hole, a cut line is formed by the cut line of the first binding hole. By providing a position along the other side edge of the second binding hole, which is a symmetrical position with respect to the position, the first hook-shaped passage is symmetrical with the second hook-shaped passage by the cut line and the width of the second binding hole. A hook-shaped passage is formed, and a T-shaped margin portion is formed between the first hook-shaped passage and the second hook-shaped passage. A pair of I-shaped stopper provided at a two score lines on both sides of the section is characterized in that it is arranged.
[0012]
In the invention of claim 2, a plurality of binding holes are opened in the side of the paper sheet, and a cut line along one side edge of the binding hole is formed between the binding hole and the side of the paper sheet. By providing a first hook-shaped passage and a second hook-shaped passage which are symmetrical to each other, a T-shaped margin is provided on both sides of the sheet, and both cuts are formed on both sides of the T-shaped margin. Combination of a paper sheet of a ring binding booklet in which a pair of I-shaped stoppers provided at a distance from each other are arranged, and a binding aid for binding the paper sheet to a locking piece of a binding tool for a replacement page. The binding device arranges a T-shaped margin on the side of a newly bound sheet above the space between the locking pieces of the binding device, and the T-shaped margin of the newly bound sheet. A large number of insertion projections that can be pushed down to the inside Characterized in that it consists of combs.
[0013]
A binding aid for binding new paper sheets to a binding device is provided with a sleeve-shaped storage device for storage of binding aids on a part of the cover that is bound on the surface of the booklet. It is preferable to be stored freely.
[0014]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Next, the structure of a ring-bound booklet according to the present invention will be described with reference to a first embodiment shown in the drawings.

At this time, the stoppers 13 on both sides of the T-shaped margin 11 are fitted between the locking pieces 6 and the adjacent locking pieces 6 to reliably prevent the locking pieces 6 from laterally moving. Combined with the stable locking action of the locking piece 6 by the T-shaped margin 11, the sheet is prevented from being easily peeled off, and the binding action of the sheet is made more accurate.
[0025]
As a result, even if the paper sheet 1 is pulled with a slight force in the direction of the arrow, both ends 12 of the T-shaped margin 11 are securely locked by the two locking members 6a and 6b. The problem that the character-shaped margin portion 11 is easily peeled off from the locking piece 6 can be solved. Of course, if the user pulls the sheet 1 with an intention to peel it off from the binding device, both ends 12 of the T-shaped margin 11 come off the two locking members 6a and 6b, so that the sheet 1 can be cleaned without being damaged. Can be removed.
[0026]
In the present invention, as described above, the main object is to prevent the paper sheet from being easily peeled off from the binding device. However, as a means for improving the practicality of the binding structure, the paper sheet removed from the binding device is used. Instead, a binding aid 14 for binding a new sheet to the binding tool is provided.
[0027]
As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the binding assisting device 14 has a T-shaped margin portion 11 of the paper sheet 1 located between a base end 15 having a predetermined length and the binding member locking piece 6. And a large number of insertion protrusions 16 having a width W5 capable of pressing the surface of the stopper 13 from above through the space between the locking pieces 6, the width of the binding member locking piece 6 between the respective protrusions 16. It is formed of a comb-like body projecting at an interval such that W1 fits therein.
[0028]
This binding aid 14 is provided with a sleeve-shaped storage storage portion 18 on a cover 17 made of a thick paper sheet provided on the surface of a booklet, and the binding aid 14 is placed in the storage portion 18. The paper is stored so that it can be pulled out freely and can be used by being pulled out from the storage part 18 when the paper sheet is replaced. Note that the length of the binding aid 14 may be such that it extends over the entire length of the binding 4, or may be half the length of the binding 4.
[0029]
After the publication of the booklet, if a part of the sheet 1 has a correction of the print content and the page needs to be replaced, the old sheet 1 is bound from the locking piece 6 as shown in FIG. After peeling the booklet upward so that the hole 3 comes off, a new sheet 1 is bound to the binding device 4 using the binding aid 14.
[0030]
When binding a new paper sheet 1 to the binding tool 4 in place of the paper sheet 1 removed from the binding tool 4, as shown in FIG. 7A, each new paper sheet 1 is inserted between pages to be inserted. Arranged so that the cut line 9 of the new paper sheet 1 is placed on the locking piece 6, take out the binding aid 14 stored in the storage storage section 18 inside the cover 17, The insertion protruding pieces 16 of the binding aid 14 are applied to the margin 11 between the cutting lines 9 and the surface of the stopper 13, and at that position, the respective insertion protruding pieces 16 are pushed downward from above.
[0031]
Then, as shown in FIGS. 7B and 8, the respective cut lines 9 are pushed open, and the margins 11 and the stoppers 13 are pushed down inside the locking pieces 6, and accordingly, both ends of the margins 11 12 is fitted and locked inside the locking piece 6 composed of the two locking members 54a and 54b, and by this one operation, many blank portions 11 and stoppers 13 are bound at once. It is bound to the tool 4.
[0032]
If the length of the binding aid 14 is the same as the entire length of the binding tool 4, a new sheet can be replaced with a single operation, and the length of the binding aid 13 is reduced to half the length of the binding tool 4. In this case, the upper and lower halves of the binding device 4 are operated twice. However, even when the length is half, a new sheet and cover can be replaced in a very short time. .

【The invention's effect】
In the ring binding booklet of the present invention, as described above, in the ring binding structure in which the cut side is provided on the side of the paper sheet so that the paper sheet can be peeled off from the binding tool as needed, the cut line is formed in the binding hole. Since both ends of the T-shaped margin portion are protruded long in both sides by providing along one of the side edges of the T-shaped margin portion, both ends of the T-shaped margin portion are inserted into the binding holes. Since the sheet is stably locked inside, even when the sheet is inadvertently pulled, the sheet is not easily peeled off from the binding tool, and the function as the binding tool can be accurately maintained.
[0034]
Examples of booklets that require frequent replacement of paper sheets, such as the booklet of the present invention, include, for example, a product sample in which the number of products is large and each time a new product is created, a sample of which needs to be presented to customers without delay. There is a booklet such as a book, and in such a sample book, it is necessary to efficiently replace a large number of pages in a very short time. In such a case, if the binding aid of the present invention is not provided, the margin between the locking pieces of the new page must be pushed down one by one with a fingertip. Therefore, it takes 3 to 5 minutes and labor to replace one new page. However, according to the binding aid of the present invention, such annoyance can be surely eliminated. It is ideal for sample books that list different types of products for each season, and can greatly expand the use of ring-bound booklets.
[0035]
Further, the binding aid necessary for replacing the paper sheet and the cover is formed of a flat comb-like body, and when not used, can be stored in a bag-shaped storage storage unit provided on the back of the cover. If the booklet does not interfere with the normal use of the booklet and there is no risk of loss, the booklet can be used as an indispensable tool for a sample book that requires frequent page replacement.
[0036]
