Application filed November 6, 1912, Serial No. 729,761. Renewed November 15, 1913. Serial No. 801,253.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, WILLIAM R. INGI-IRAM, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Tucson, in the county of Pima and State of Arizona, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Binding Eyelets of which the following is a specification.
My invention is an improvement in binding eyelets, for securing together in book form a series of periodicals, and has for its object the provision of means whereby the members of the series may be connected together in interlocking relation and in such manner that they may be opened in the same manner as a book.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a series of periodicals bound together with the improved eyelets; Fig. 2 an enlarged rear view of the series; Fig. 3 1s a perspective view of a part of one cover; Fig. 1 is a similar view of a part of the other cover; Fig. 5 is an end view with the binders in section showing the method of connecting the different members of the series; Fig. 6 is a side view of an eyelet; and, Fig. 7 is a reduced perspective view of the same.
In the present embodiment of the invention two or more eyelets are connected with each of the periodicals to be bound and each periodical is interlocked with the preceding periodical, the covers being interlocked in the same manner as are the periodicals.
In the binding operation a front cover 1 and a rear cover 2 are provided, and the periodicals 3 are arranged between the covers in regular order. Each of the covers 1 and 2 is provided near each of its ends wlt-h a clip formed from a plate doubled upon itself to form a U-shaped construction, consisting of an outer member 4, an inner memher 5 and a connecting portion 6. The outer member 1 of each clip is provided with an opening 7, and the inner member 5 of each clip is provided with a struck up spur or tongue 8, which is adapted to be passed through an opening in the cover and through the opening 7 of the outer member 1, the point of the spur being bent over upon the outer face of the member 4 to lock the clip in place on the cover.
The clips of the front cover 1 have an opening in the connecting portion 6, as indicated at 9, and an eyelet 10 is arranged at the opening, the said eyelet being formed from a bar doubled upon itself to form the eye, the ends being bent laterally outward, as shown at 11, and engaging beneath the connecting portion 6 of the clip.
The clips of the cover 2 have a tongue 12 cut from the material of the clip, at the portion 6, and the central portion of the said tongue extends beyond the face of the connecting portion 6, as shown in Fig. 3.
It will be understood that the covers may be suitably ornamented if desired, and may bear the name of the periodical or any other printed matter that may be desired.
Each of the periodicals 3 is provided with a plurality of eyelets, shown more particularly in Figs. 5 to 7 inclusive. Each eyelet is formed from a bar or wire doubled upon itself to form an eye 13, and the ends 14 and 1 1 of the wire or bar are then arranged alongside each other, as shown in Fig. 7, and the said ends are pointed in order that they may be easily passed through the material of the periodical. The eye 13 is arranged at approximately a right angle to the ends 14 M the said ends of the wire or bar constituting a shank for the eye.
It will be noted from an inspection of Fig. 7, that one of the ends 14 is of greater length than the other, so that they may be easily passed through the paper. The said ends are passed through the periodical at its center, from without inward, as shown more particularly in Fig. 5, and the said ends 14 and 1 1 are then bent laterally in opposite directions, as indicated in Figs. 2 and 6. While each periodical is shown as provided with two eyelets, it will be understood that as many eyelets may be used as may be desired or found necessary.
As the periodicals are issued, they may be provided with eyelets as above mentioned, and the eyelets of the first periodical are passed through the eyes 10 of the cover before being engaged with the periodical. That is, the ends 1 1 14-. of each eyelet are passed through the eye 10 or through the eye of the eyelet of the preceding number before the eyelet is engaged with the number. hen the next periodical issues, and before it has been provided with eyelets, the said eyelets are passed through the eyelets of the preceding number, and this method of binding is continued until the entire se ries or volume is completed. After each number is inserted, the cover 2 may be placed, the tongue 12 of the said cover being a portion of the said ends adjacent to the eye is left extending beyond the edge of the periodical, as shown at 15, in Figs. 5 and 6. This portion 15 forms a shank for the engagement of the preceding eye. After the numbers are bound together with the covers the eyelets form a chain connecting the covers, and also connecting the periodicals.
hen the series of numbers is completed the series may be removed from the covers 12 and filed away for future reference, and they will remain bound together regardless of whether the covers are in place or not.
To remove a series of periodicals from the covers the cover 2 is first removed by disengaging the snap 12 from the eye of the adjacent periodical. One of the members of the clip may now be released from the cover 1 to permit the disengagement of the eyelet 10. New eyelets may be replaced on the cover 1 and the covers 1 and 2 are then ready for binding. The eyelets 10 are released from the cover 1 by first releasing the clip 5. One arm 11 of the eyelet may then be straightened to permit the said eyelet to be disengaged from the eyelet of the adjacent periodical.
In binding with the improved eyelets, the numbers of the periodicals may be bentfreely with respect to each other, as may also the pages of the single periodical.
The eyes 13 of the eyelet are of such size that the eye of the eyelet of the succeeding periodical or number cannot be passed through the eye with which it is engaged, since the eyes of all the eyelets are the same size.
In binding heavy periodicals, it will be necessary to use a moderately stiff wire, and in order to permit the shank to be bent easily and at the proper place, the shank is preferably flattened slightly at the place where it is to be bent, that is, close to the eye, and this feature is shown in Fig. 6. It will be noticed that the angle between the eye and the shank is slightly less than a right angle,
this being so arranged to permit the periodical to lie in superposed relation. If the bending were at a right angle, the periodicals would lie in stepped relation.
I claim:
1. In combination with a front and back cover each having a plurality of clips con nected with its rear edge, an eye pivoted to each clip of the front cover and mounted to swing laterally with respect to the plane of the cover, each of the clips of the rear cover having a resilient tongue, and a plurality of binding eyelets for periodicals, each eyelet consisting of an eye and a shank atright angles to each other, said eyelet being formed by bending a wire or bar upon itself to form the eye, the ends of the wire or bar lying alongside each other and one being of greater length than the other, said ends being at right angles to the plane of the eyelet and being adapted to pass through the eye of the succeeding eyelet or the eye of the cover and then through the leaves of the periodical and to be then bent laterally away from each other to hold the eyelet in place.
