Definitions

  • the invention relates to folders for sheets of paper or the like, with a carrier, in particular made of plastic or metal, consisting of a base, a back hole optionally provided with a grip hole and a cover, which are connected to one another via permanently foldable fold lines, the base for attaching a Ironing-provided line-up mechanism is designed.
  • Such a folder is known for example from DE-A-23 03 218, the folder being made of plastic, but for reasons of strength it has areas of greater material thickness than diagonal stiffeners.
  • the lid has slots with rigid locking cams protruding on one side, which can reach behind the brackets of the line-up mechanism when the folder is standing to prevent the folder from opening when it is standing.
  • Such a folder is unsuitable for hanging files, so that there are only limited possible uses.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a folder of the type mentioned, which can be produced in a simple manner and is particularly versatile, so that it can be stored either lying, standing or hanging.
  • the solution according to the invention consists of designing such a folder in such a way that at least the areas of the base and lid adjoining the back and possibly the back itself have a greater width on both sides than the other areas of the base and lid, and that these wider areas form essentially rectangular, equally large symmetrical projections on both sides, which are formed in one piece with the carrier and step-like.
  • the folder according to the invention can therefore not only be used lying or standing, but can also be hung directly into a hanging file without additional components being required.
  • the carrier has the shape of a single blank, which can be produced in a simple manner.
  • the folder can be used for paper sheets with any format.
  • the projections on the bottom and lid have beveled side edges which run obliquely from the crossing points of the fold lines with the outer edges of the projections in the direction of the outer corner points of the bottom or lid, the folder thus has an improved stability for standing Storage and at the same time an elegant appearance.
  • the folder according to the invention has side supports in the area adjacent to the back and the supports are formed in one piece with the floor and project transversely towards the lid essentially perpendicular to the floor, the folder according to the invention has particularly good stability for the accommodation in suspension registries.
  • the supports are designed as flat webs or prisms, which in the closed state of the folder have a leg running essentially parallel to the back, and the supports are designed with reinforcements or stiffeners, which may extend in the direction widen the soil. This further improves the strength and stability of the folder.
  • the supports are connected to webs which are formed on the floor and are optionally arranged at right angles, and the webs run parallel to the side edge or the fold line. This further improves the stability of the folder. Furthermore, a paper stack can be fixed in the folder.
  • the supports on the underside merge into the wider area of the floor and limit or terminate this laterally, the supports being L-shaped and having legs running parallel to the side edge, which are flush with the side edges of the floor run. This creates a compact and symmetrical arrangement, which is advantageous when the folder is subject to high weight.
  • the supports are provided with a hook-shaped projection on their outer front edges. This prevents the folder from slipping into the suspension file if the folder itself has a narrow spine.
  • the folder with its supports and, if necessary, with its reinforcements is designed as a one-piece injection-molded part or pressed part made of plastic.
  • Plastics such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, polyurethane or in particular polypropylene are suitable, preferably with a wall thickness from 2 to 3 mm, which can have a grained or structured outer surface.
  • the folder on the bottom and / or spine and / or lid has at least one area designed as a smooth surface on which an exchangeable, in particular a self-adhesive label can be attached, the versatile possible uses are further improved since outdated labels are no longer stuck over will need.
  • the smooth surfaces are formed as flat depressions in the respective walls of the carrier and are offset or stepped with a ring or bead in relation to the surrounding areas of the respective wall. This protects the edge of the label from mechanical stress and prevents unwanted detachment of the label.
  • the smooth surfaces are completely surrounded by the circumferential projecting ring or bead and if the ring or bead is flat and forms a slight increase on the order of a few tenths of a millimeter compared to the smooth surface.
  • the smooth surface can be decoratively and functionally different from the surrounding area without the increase being perceived as disturbing.
  • the smooth surfaces can expediently be formed in one piece with the plastic part as a carrier and can be stamped into the respective area.
  • the folder with the smooth surfaces can be produced in a single operation in a simple manner, for example as a plastic injection molded part.
  • an elongated slot is provided in the lid parallel to the side edge of the carrier, which is in relation to the longitudinal axis of the back is arranged as a mirror image of the respective bracket of the line-up mechanism and has at least one resiliently deflectable tongue which projects elastically and resiliently into the through opening of the slot.
  • the slots can have an S-shaped contour with two tongues projecting from opposite sides into the through opening, the slots having a width which is approximately equal to twice the diameter of the bracket. An effective locking of the lid is thereby achieved, but the folder can be opened easily due to the resilient and elastic properties.
  • the carrier has holders at a predetermined distance from the punched holes, which are formed integrally with the carrier or are fixedly connected to it , and that for receiving and fixing the sheets of paper releasably attachable U-shaped brackets made of metal or resilient material are provided in the holders, which have on one leg a projection projecting in the direction of the other leg.
  • the holders are either formed in one piece with the carrier or are firmly connected to it, for example by welding, riveting, gluing, screwing or stapling, without the need for complicated work processes.
  • the brackets can be easily and quickly detached and reattached when documents are to be removed or inserted.
  • the stirrups have a height approximately equal to the diameter of the circular arches, and the distance between the two arms of the stirrup is an odd multiple of the uniform hole spacing of the punched holes.
  • the folder according to the invention is particularly suitable for EDP paper, the edge-side transport holes of which are used to fix and turn the sheets of paper.
  • the holders have a first and a second, upwardly open recess with a lateral opening arranged transversely thereto, the recesses being designed as bores or blind holes and optionally provided with countersinks in the entrance area. This supports and facilitates the insertion of the bracket into the holder and creates a quickly detachable connection.
  • the second recess in the holder has a vertical slot which merges in its lower region into a horizontal slot which is partially covered by the top of the holder, leaving an opening free.
  • Such a folder with holders can be produced in one operation by injection molding and ensures the required releasable attachment of the bracket.
  • the holders have sliding surfaces which pass from the vertical slot into the exposed opening via a holding projection. This enables an effective locking of the bracket on the holder.
  • the holders of the folder according to the invention are provided with fixing elements which secure the respective bracket in its latching position against being pulled out of the cutouts. This prevents the writing from accidentally falling out.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic plan view of the folder in the open state, the various parts being indicated only schematically.
  • a carrier 20 can be seen, which essentially consists of three approximately rectangular areas, namely a base 21, a back 22 and a cover 23 in a symmetrical arrangement with respect to a longitudinal axis 29, the base 21, the back 22 and the cover 23 being permanent fold lines 26 and 27 which can be bent are connected to one another.
  • the carrier 20 can consist of metal, of paper reinforced with plastic or in particular only of plastic.
  • the bottom 21 of the carrier 20 is used to attach a line-up mechanism provided with brackets, which can be of a commercially available type. Such line-up mechanisms are usually provided with brackets and are fastened to the bottom 21, for example by rivets.
  • brackets which can be of a commercially available type.
  • Such line-up mechanisms are usually provided with brackets and are fastened to the bottom 21, for example by rivets.
  • the bottom 21 of the carrier 20 is provided with two holders 40, which can be made of metal or plastic and are either formed in one piece with the carrier 20 or are firmly connected to it, for example by injection molding or pressing or by welding, riveting, gluing, stapling or the like.
  • the holders 40 can expediently also consist of the same material as the carrier 20 itself.
  • the holders 40 are arranged on the one hand close to the side edges 25 of the carrier 20 or the base 21, and on the other hand are attached with their end edges 51 in the immediate vicinity of the opposite fold line 26 at the transition to the back 22.
  • Each holder 40 is provided with a bracket 70, of which the legs 71 are indicated schematically in Fig. 1.
  • One leg 71 each of these brackets 70 serves to receive and fix a stack of sheets of paper 30, which are indicated schematically in the lower area of FIG. 1.
  • the holders 40 are fastened to the carrier 20 with their brackets 70 or their legs 71 at the predetermined distance B6 and on the lines of the two rows 32 of punched holes 31.
  • the brackets 70 serve to receive and fix the sheets of paper 30, which can be folded around their upper edge, whereby they are received by the opposite legs of the brackets.
  • projections 28 on both sides of the side edges 25 in the region of the base 21, back 22 and cover 23. These projections 28 should be provided at least in the region of the base 21 and cover 23 in order to form one-piece supports, those for housing serve the folder in a commercially available hanging file.
  • recesses 36a, 36b can optionally also be provided in order to save material and, if necessary, to facilitate handling of the folder.
  • the distance that the laterally projecting areas 28 have from the side edges 25 is designated B4, so that the folder or carrier 20 has a greater width B7 overall in this area.
  • These projections 28 have a straight side edge 127 parallel to the side edges 25 and each adjoin them via a shoulder 37, so that the step-shaped projections 28 result.
  • an optionally circular recess 36 can be provided as a handle hole in the back 22 to facilitate handling of the folder.
  • the wider areas of the base 21, back 22 and cover 23 are of the same size and symmetrical on both sides, so that the step-shaped, essentially rectangular projections 28 result.
  • the side edges 127 can expediently merge into beveled side edges 127a, which run obliquely in the direction of the outer corner points P of the base 21 or cover 23 from the crossing points of the fold lines 26, 27 with the straight outer edges 127 of the projections 28. This gives the wearer a more attractive appearance, and the slightly beveled side edges 127a improve the stability of the folder when it is parked standing in a piece of furniture.
  • the paragraphs 37 can also be slightly beveled or be rectangular to the side edges 25.
  • the shoulders 37 of the stepped projections 28 are arranged approximately at the level of the center of the holders 40 or their brackets 70. This proves to be expedient in order to accommodate such a file in a suspension file, with its paragraphs 37 pointing to the parallel file Suspension rails of the suspension file will rest.
  • the carrier 20 is provided with reinforcements or supports for the projections, which in this embodiment are designated by the reference number 124.
  • Bottom 21, back 22 and cover 23 are designed as flat parts and are connected to one another via permanently foldable fold lines 128 and 129.
  • the bottom 21 has a region 126 between the fold line 129 and a dashed line 126a, which serves for receiving and fastening an A not shown uokmechanik commercially available type.
  • lateral supports 130 are provided in the area 126 adjacent to the back 22, which are formed in one piece with the base 21 and project transversely, essentially perpendicular to the base 21. In the closed state of the folder, these supports 130 extend in the direction of the cover 23 and are designed as flat webs or prisms which run essentially parallel to the back 22 in the closed state of the folder.
  • the outer edges 127 of the projections 124 can have beveled side edges 127a, which extend in the manner described above in the direction of the corner points of the base 21 or cover 23.
  • the supports 130 extend from the outer edge 127 or 127a of the wider region or the projections 124 over the side edges 125 of the base 21 into the inner region; they can taper slightly in the direction of the outer edge 127 or 127a as well as in the direction of their upper edge. This taper to the outer edge 127 or 127a is indicated schematically in FIG. 2.
  • the supports can be designed with reinforcements or stiffeners.
  • the supports 130 widen in the direction of the base 21.
  • the supports 130 can be connected to webs 131 and / or 132, which are arranged, for example, at right angles to one another and expediently parallel to the side edge 125 or to fold line 129.
  • the webs 131 and 132 therefore have a double function, since on the one hand they contribute to the stability of the supports 130 and thus of the folder in its hanging position, and on the other hand they form contact parts for a stack of sheets of paper, not shown, which the wearer picks up in use.
  • the projections 124 in the region of the base 21 and / or the back 22 and / or the cover 23 can be omitted, in which case the supports 130 increasingly or only take up the weight of the folder when it is in one Suspension file is suspended.
  • the supports 130 merge into the wider area of the base 21 on their underside and thus form a lateral boundary or a lateral termination of the respective projection 124, so that a compact and stable arrangement with a pleasing appearance is produced.
  • the supports 130 have a projection 138 in the region of their front edges 137.
  • These protrusions 138 extend substantially parallel to the side edge 125 of the bottom 21 and form continuations of the respective outer edge 127 or 127a of the wider projection 124.
  • These projections 138 are hook-shaped and connect approximately at right angles to the legs 135 of the supports 130, so that they improve and prevent the filing of the folder in a hanging file, that the entire folder falls into the box of the suspension file if the corresponding compartment is only slightly filled and / or the back 22 has a small width.
  • FIG. 4 and 5 show a further embodiment of the folder, FIG. 4 only showing the right part in a partial top view.
  • the support 130 has a leg 135 running essentially parallel to the back 22 or to the fold line 129 and a leg 136 arranged at right angles thereto, so that an L-shaped support 130 results overall.
  • the leg 136 runs flush with the side edge 125 of the base 21, so that there are smooth transitions from the support 130 to the respective adjacent walls.
  • a hook-shaped projection 138 is provided in the region of the front edge 137 of the leg 135 or the support 130, which has the same function as described above.
  • FIG. 5 shows such an embodiment in a side view from the right. It can be seen that the leg 136 forms a wall continuing the leg 135. This triangular or angular arrangement results in a particularly robust, compact and stable construction of the supports 130 or of the folder provided for a suspension file. If the leg 136 in the embodiment according to FIG. 5 has the same height as the leg 135, the file is in no way limited to such an embodiment. Rather, this leg 136 can also have a lower height or, in the manner indicated by the broken line, have an oblique upper edge according to FIG. 5. This does not affect the stability of the support 130 impaired. A corresponding design of the support on the base 21 is then provided on the opposite side of the carrier in order to ensure a uniform absorption of the load.
  • Suitable materials for such organizing agents are conventional, solid and optionally elastic plastics such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate or polyurethane or in particular polypropylene, without being restricted to the plastics mentioned above.
  • the one-piece folder made of polypropylene or the like can have a structured or grained outer surface. It comes with small wall thicknesses of only about 2 to 3 mm for bottom 21, back 22 and cover 23, without the need for flat stiffeners for the folder or the folder itself, as in conventional arrangements.
  • a plastic material such as polypropylene offers the advantageous properties, on the one hand, of sufficient rigidity and strength in the area of the flat parts and, on the other hand, of the desired elasticity in the area of the hinge-forming fold lines 128 and 129.
  • the reinforcements mentioned are therefore only intended for the load-bearing supports 130, not but to stiffen the folder or the folder as a whole.
  • Such a material is easy to process and, with its grained or structured outside, has an outer surface which is insensitive to scratches during use.
  • FIG. 6 shows a schematic side view of the folder, the support of which is designated by the reference number 20.
  • bottom 21, back 22 and cover 23 are connected to one another via permanently foldable fold lines 26 and 27 and form flat parts or walls on which labels may have to be attached.
  • the inside of the carrier 20 is designated by the reference symbol 218, the outside of the carrier 20 by the reference symbol 220.
  • FIG. 7 shows a schematic top view of the cover 23 of the carrier 20, a smooth surface 230, for example of rectangular design, being clearly offset from the surrounding area 222.
  • the area 222 can be structured, grained, rough, grained or in some other way.
  • the outer edge of this area 222 and thus of the cover 23 is designated by the reference numeral 224, the inner edge of the area 222 is formed by a schematically indicated ring or bead 226.
  • a replaceable label can be attached to such a smooth surface 230, preferably a self-adhesive label that can be removed again if necessary.
  • smooth surfaces 230 can be provided not only on the lid 23 of the carrier 20, but also on other parts of the folder, for example in the area of the bottom 21 or the back 22, both on the outside 220 and on the inside 218.
  • FIG. 8 shows a further embodiment with a partial view of the back 22, on which a smooth surface 232 is formed in a symmetrical manner, which is surrounded by a structured area 228.
  • a transition area in the form of an edge, a ring or a bead 226 is provided between the smooth surface and the area 228. Details can be found in FIGS. 9 and 10, the sections through the arrangement according to FIG. 8 show, with a label 234 attached to the smooth surface 232.
  • the smooth surface 232 is designed in the form of a flat depression in the back 22 and merges with the schematically indicated edge 226a into the surrounding region 228, which is located somewhat higher.
  • a ring or bead 226b is provided, which protrudes outward both with respect to the smooth surface 232 and with respect to the surrounding area 228.
  • the ring or bead 226b completely surrounds the smooth surface 232 in order to provide protection for the applied label 234 from all sides.
  • the height of the edge 226a or of the ring or bead 226b will only be a few tenths of a millimeter by which this part protrudes from the smooth surface 232.
  • the height of the rim 226a and ring 226b, respectively will be such that it is generally somewhat larger than the thickness of conventional labels 234 to provide the desired protection against unwanted peeling .
  • the cross section of the ring or bead 226b can be semicircular according to FIG. 10, but also rectangular, triangular or trapezoidal in cross section. In this context, there are no limits to the design; if necessary, the different areas can also be contrasted in color.

  • the slots 33 have an S-shaped contour with two tongues 34 projecting from opposite sides into the through opening 35, without the folder being restricted to such an arrangement. If necessary, a pair of such tongues 34 is also sufficient, which are arranged in the respective slots 33 pointing towards or away from one another.
  • slots 33 with their tongues 34 serve to engage the opposite brackets 70 of the holders 40 when the folder is closed, in order to keep the folder closed on the one hand and to press the stack of sheets of paper 30 against the floor 21 on the other hand and thus in the folder.
  • the slots 33 expediently have a width which is approximately equal to twice the material diameter of the brackets 70, the tongues 34 projecting transversely into the middle of the slots 33. A secure fixation of the cover 23 in the brackets 70 is thus achieved without the problem of opening the folder, since the tongues 34 can yield resiliently.
  • the width and height of the base 21 are denoted by H1 and B1, respectively; the height of the back 22 is designated H2; the height and width of the cover 23 are indicated with H3 and B3.

  • the lower end of this slot then forms the Obar side of the bottom 21 of the carrier 20 on which the holder 40 is fastened or with which the holder 40 is integrally formed is.
  • the distance 60 of the transverse bore 54 above the bottom of the slot 53 is at least equal to the material diameter of the bracket 70 or its projection 73 in order to be able to fix the bracket 70 inserted in the holder 40.
  • the bore 52 and the facing outer edge 61 of the slot 53 in the holder 40 are at a distance from one another which is at least equal to the leg distance A of the bracket 70 so that the bracket 70 can be inserted in a simple manner from above.
  • a cotter pin or pin 56 is provided for fixation, which has a wide head 57 and a tip 58 at the opposite end.
  • This pin consists of solid, possibly bendable, elastic material with a diameter so that it can be detachably inserted into the holder over the projection 73 of the bracket 70.
  • transverse bore 54 through which this pin is inserted.
  • two such transverse bores 54 and 55 can also be provided at a distance from one another, so that one transverse bore 55 is constantly used to receive the pin 56, while its opposite end with the tip 58 is pulled out of the other transverse bore 54 if necessary to insert or remove a bracket 70.
  • the pin 56 cannot be lost during operation if it is permanently fastened in the holder 40.
  • such a pin 56 can also be fixedly connected to the holder 40 or can be formed in one piece with it, so that the pin 56 is always available.
  • 21 to 23 show the assembled state of holder 40 and bracket 70 in different representations. It can be seen that the pin 56 is inserted through a transverse bore 55, the head 57 resting against the side edge of the holder 40. The pin 56 is then pulled out in an arc shape and inserted through the other transverse bore 54, it passing over the projection 73 on the leg 71a of the bracket 70 and fixing the bracket 70 in the holder 40 in this way.
  • the slot 53 does not necessarily have to lie in the line of alignment of the punched holes 31 of the paper sheets, it is only important that its outer edge 61 lies on the line of the row 32 of punched holes 31.
  • the projection 73 and the slot 53 can together have any orientation, the transverse bore 54 then having to be aligned accordingly so that the pin 56 can overlap the projection 73 and thus fix the bracket 70.
  • the holders 40 can also be formed with a plurality of spaced-apart, aligned recesses 42 in the form of upwardly open bores in order to accommodate brackets 70 with different spacing of their legs 71, 71a if there is a replacement of the Bracket 70 made or the holder 40 to be used for different folders. It is only necessary to ensure that the distance of the cutouts 42 from the opposite cutout 41 or the outer edge 61 of a slot 53 is an odd multiple of the even distances between the punched holes, i.e. has the values L, 3L, 5L ...
  • these distances of the two cutouts in the holder 40 and the equally large distances of the legs 71 and 71a of the stirrups 70 are chosen so that they have values of 38.1 mm or 64.5 mm. This corresponds to a distance L of the punch holes of 1/2 ", which is usually used.
  • the holder 40 should be arranged with its one end face 51 in the immediate vicinity or at a short distance from the opposite, permanently foldable fold line 26 in order to achieve the most compact possible arrangement.
  • the distance H7 between this fold line 26 and the end edge 51 can be of the order of magnitude of one centimeter.
  • the height H2 of the back 22 is selected so that it is approximately equal to the (free) height of the stirrups 70, that is approximately equal to the diameter D of the circular arch 72 of the respective stirrup 70.
  • the carrier 20 can then be folded slightly in a U-shape and let the bow 70 with its arches 72 pass through the slots 33 in the cover 23.
  • the brackets 70 themselves have a circular cross section with a diameter of 1 to 3 mm, preferably of about 2 mm, so that the stacks of sheets of paper with their punched holes can be easily attached.
  • the thickness of the material for the carrier 20 can be selected in a suitable manner and will be approximately 2 mm in the case of a particularly suitable material such as polypropylene, so that both the required strength and the desired elasticity are given in the region of the slots 33 or their tongues 34 is.
  • These slots 33 are expediently provided at the points opposite the brackets 70 and in the same number as these, only one or two slots 33 needing to be equipped with the elastic tongues 34.
  • the shoulders 37 of the projections 28 can be approximately height the middle of the bracket 70 may be arranged, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the distance between the shoulders 37 of the projections 28 from the closest fold line 26 or 27 is designated by the reference symbol H6 and has a value of approximately 30 to 40 mm.
  • brackets 70 are expediently filled with paper sheets up to about half the height, since then problem-free turning over of the individual paper sheets 30 and secure locking of the files by pressing down the cover 23 are ensured. It is of course also possible in a folder of A described above rt an additional clamping rail with openings in the region of the two brackets 70 to be used which is impaled prior to the mounting of a stack of paper sheets 30 to the bracket 70 for the fixing of a stack of Support paper sheets for storage. However, such a clamping rail is by no means absolutely necessary.
