Definitions

  • the invention relates to a folder, consisting of a back and a cover, which are connected to one another by a folded back strip, the back preferably consisting of a stiffer plastic film than the front part, and the strip connecting the cover to the back made of flexible material, e.g. a film made of flexible plastic.
  • the folder mechanism consists of a folder in the form of a metal strip which is connected to the back of the folder by inserting the folder through holes in the back of the folder. Furthermore, a cover strip is provided in the known quick-stitching devices, which has two holes through which the bent ends of the quick-stitching tongue are inserted before they are bent over or the like. to fix.
  • the known folders therefore consist of several components, so that the production is expensive. In addition, there is a risk that the cover strip is lost and documents in the folder can then only be poorly filed.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a folder of the type mentioned, which does not have the disadvantages described.
  • this is achieved in that between the back and the lid in the region of the fold there is a flap which preferably extends over the entire height of the folder, that punched or punched-out tongues are provided from the back in the region of the fold that the flap is provided a hole is provided in the area of each tongue, in which it is connected to the back of the folder or the strip, and that a hole is provided in the flap at a distance from this hole.
  • the tongues serving as quick-release tongues are punched out of the back of the folder or are prepared for punching out by punching, the fastening of the tongue to the folder that is necessary in the known folder is unnecessary. Since, according to the invention, a tab connected to the folder is also provided as a cover strip, it is always correctly aligned with the tongues and cannot be lost.
  • the tab provided according to the invention, serving as a cover strip has the further advantage that it covers the documents filed in the folder in the area of the binding margin over its entire length, so that the corners of the document, especially when closing the folder, do not form so-called "donkey ears" "can bend.
  • the tongues can be threaded into these holes more easily than with closed holes.
  • An embodiment of the invention with which documents with two or four perforations can be filed, is characterized in that four tongues and four pairs of holes are provided in the tab.
  • the production of the folder according to the invention is particularly simple if the flap is formed in one piece with the back of the folder, since in this embodiment the flap does not have to be connected to the folder in the area of the back strip.
  • the tongues are provided in the area of the back which is covered by the back strip connecting the back to the lid.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the saddle stitches and the openings formed after the saddle stitches are bent up are not visible from the outside.
  • the hold of the quick-release tongues, which are threaded up through the one hole of the pair of holes assigned to them and down again through the flap through the adjacent hole of the pair of holes, is improved if the areas in which the tongues are connected to the back of the folder are opposite holes in the flap as round holes and the holes adjacent to these are designed as slots which extend transversely to the fold of the folder.
  • the tongues are aligned accordingly long, where not only a large stack of documents or the like can be filed through, but also the insertion of the tongues through the pairs of holes is simplified, it can be provided within the scope of the invention that the tongues mutually regionally are arranged laterally overlapping. As a result, the tongues can also be provided with the desired length in the case of smaller formats of the folder.
  • connections of the holes, the areas of the tongues, in which these are connected to the back of the folder or the strip, are opposite, with the free longitudinal edge of the tab measured in the longitudinal direction of the tab are narrower than the holes themselves.
  • FIG. 1 shows partially a folder with two tongues in an oblique view
  • FIG. 2 shows a section along the line 11-11 in FIG. 1
  • FIG. 3 shows a detail of the folder from FIG. 1 with the folder in the use position
  • FIG 4 partly an embodiment of a folder with three tongues
  • FIG. 5 partly an embodiment of a folder with four tongues
  • FIG. 6 partly a folder designed as an account statement folder and FIG. 7 in section the folder from FIG. 6 in the closed state
  • 8 shows another embodiment in partial view
  • FIG. 9 shows another embodiment in section
  • FIG. 10 shows another embodiment in oblique view (partially).
  • a folder 1 shown in FIG. 1 consists of a back 2 and a cover 3 and a back strip 4 connecting the back to the cover 3.
  • the back 2 and the cover 3 are made of plastic film, the plastic film of the back 2 usually being stiffer than that of the cover 3.
  • the back strip 4 consists of a soft plastic film and can be provided in the area of the back fold 5 with grooves 6 which facilitate the bending of the back strip 4 when the folder 1 is opened and closed.
  • the parts of the folder 1 can be connected to one another with the aid of welds, which are symbolized in FIG. 1 by dashed lines 7, 8 and 9 be.
  • a flap 10 is provided in the area of the fold 5 and extends over the entire height of the folder 1, which in the exemplary embodiment shown is formed in one piece with the back 2 and is flexible in its bending area 11 by means of several grooves 12.
  • the flap 10 is folded up and the documents 15 are inserted with the stitching holes provided in them over the tongues 13 and 14, which are also bent up. Thereupon, the tongues 13 are guided upwards through the holes 16 in the tab 10 and then put down again through the preferably slot-shaped holes 17 adjacent to the holes 16, so that their free ends are located between the documents 15 and the tab 10, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of a folder 1 according to the invention, in which a total of three quick-release tongues 20 are punched out of the back 2. Accordingly, three pairs of holes, consisting of round holes 16 and slot-shaped holes 17, are provided in the tab 10.
  • a total of four tongues 21 are punched out of the back 2 of the folder 1 and accordingly there are a total of tab 10, which, as shown in FIG. 5, can also be designed with rounded corners four pairs of holes consisting of round holes 16 and slots 17 are provided.
  • Fig. 5 it is also shown that the tongues 21 are punched laterally overlapping each other from the back 2, so that they can be longer than the distance between their ends connected to the back 2 from each other.
  • the folder 1 according to the invention in order to store documents with two, three or four holes in one and the same folder 1 as required can.
  • the tongues are not punched out of the back 2 of the folder 1, but are only punched out, so that only the tongues required in each case can be detached from the back.
  • the folder 1 according to the invention can be used as a folder for filing documents of any size, e.g. be trained for the A4 format. It is also possible to design folder 1 for collecting account statements, for which purpose ze is correspondingly smaller (e.g. 20 x 11 cm).
  • a folder 1, which is intended for bank statements, is different from folders in which brochures and the like. are practically only open to file another bank statement. On the other hand, brochure folders are (and should be) leafed through frequently. It is therefore sufficient for folder 1 for account statements ("account statement folders”) if the stapling mechanism holds the account statements while the folder is closed, whereas an automatic removal of the flap which takes over the function of the cover strip is advantageous when folder 1 is fully opened.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7. Such an account statement folder is shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • the tab 10 is provided from the cover 3 in its area covered by the back strip 4, ie between the weld seams 7 and 8.
  • the folder is closed (FIG. 7)
  • the tongues 13, 14 are inserted through the holes 16 and 17 in the tab 10, which are both designed as slots, so that the documents 15 (the account statements) are held securely.
  • the tab 10 is pulled off the tongues 13, 14 and a further account statement can be filed.
  • the connections 16 ' are the same width as the holes 16 themselves. It is also possible for the connections 16 ′ to be widened toward the free edge 28 of the tab 10. Even in the case of holes 16 designed as slots, the connections 16 ′ can be narrower than the hole 16 itself, at least in its hole-side end.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 are of course not limited to account statement portfolios, but is advantageous wherever primarily documents are collected.
  • the tab 10 is connected to the back 2 or the back strip 4 in the region of one of its ends by means of a weld seam 25.
  • Fig. 9 it is shown that the tongues 13 and 14 can also be punched out of a seam 26 connected to the back 2 by a longitudinal weld 27 strips 26 can be punched out.
  • the tab 10 is also formed with the strip 26 in one piece.
  • the folder 1 partially shown in FIG. 10 has a back 2 and a cover 3, which are connected to one another by a back strip 4.
  • One leg of the strip 26 is arranged in the overlap area of the back strip 4 and the back 2 and is fixed by welds 9 and 27.
  • the other leg of the strip 26 forms the tab 10.
  • the tab 10 is reinforced by a base 30, the holes 16 and 17 being provided in both the tab 10 and in the base 30.
  • the pad 30 is connected to the tab 10 by welds 31.
  • the tongues 14 are punched out of the area of the back 2 covered by the back strip 4.
  • the insertion of the tongues 14 into the holes 16 is particularly simple since the connecting regions 16 'not only widen towards the free edge 28 of the tab 10, but also form an acute angle with them.
  • Openings 32 are also punched into the back strip 4, through which - after the film parts have been removed - a hanging rail can be inserted into the space between the back strip 4 and one leg 33 of the strip 26.
