Definitions
- This invention relates to a photograph album or file, more particularly to a photograph album or file binder with an indefinite number of detachable sheets which can be held firmly together.
- a conventional file binder includes an elongated press member B which has two circular holes and an elongated slide slot. Two flexible metal strips C are respectively passed through the circular holes. Two slide blocks D are respectively and slidably received in the slide slot for the purpose of bending the strips C, thereby clamping perforated sheets between the press member B and a cover E. When the number of the sheets is too great, the sheets cannot be held firmly by the press member B.
- a conventional ring binder is shown which includes split metal rings F attached to a metal back G for holding perforated sheets thereon. However, the number of the sheets held on the metal rings F, though greater than the number held by the binder in Fig.
- the prior art reveals a binder with upper and lower rows of tubular metal elements H, I which are provided on a sheet of thick paper J.
- a wire K is passed through the lower row of the tubular elements I of the upper paper J and the upper row of the tubular elements H of the lower paper J so as to interconnect pivotally the papers J.
- the diameter of the wire K is substantially less than the inner diameter of the tubular elements H, I and the wire K is straight, it is easy for the wire K to pass through the tubular elements H, I. It is also easy for the wires K to slide relative to the tubular elements H, I.
- the wire K is curved, it is difficult for the wire K to pass through the tubular elements H, I.
- the main object of this invention is therefore to provide a photograph album or file binder with an indefinite number of detachable sheets which can be held firmly together.
- an elongated plate is made of a plastic material and has an elongated thick plate portion which has a first wide surface, a second wide surface opposite to the first wide surface, a first narrow surface, and a second narrow surface opposite to the first narrow surface.
- the first wide surface has a dovetail groove extending transversely from the intermediate portion thereof and terminating at the first narrow surface.
- the second wide surface includes a dovetail tenon projecting therefrom opposite the dovetail groove and shaped in conformity with the dovetail tenon.
- a slant groove is formed in the intermediate portion of an end segment of the first wide surface and has a deep end positioned near the first narrow surface, and a shallow end positioned near the second narrow surface.
- the second wide surface includes a slant tongue projecting therefrom opposite the slant groove and shaped in conformity with the slant groove.
- the thin plate portion includes two longitudinally spaced first posts protruding vertically from one surface thereof for defining a channel therebetween, and a second post portruding vertically from the other surface of the thin plate portion opposite the channel and being of the same length as the first posts.
- the total sum of the thickness of the thin plate portion plus the height of the first and second posts is equal to the thickness of the thick plate portion.
- At least one plastic press arm may extend downwardly and outwardly from the bottom surface of the thin plate portion.
- a laminated unit 1 consists of three plastic plates 11.
- Each of the plates 11 has an elongated thick plate portion and an elongated thin plate portion 115.
- the thick plate portion has upper and bottom wide surfaces, and left and right narrow surfaces.
- the upper wide surface has three transversely extending dovetail grooves 111 which terminate at the right narrow surface, and two slant grooves 114 which are respectively formed in the intermediate portions of the end segments of the thick plate portions.
- Each of the slant grooves 114 has a deep end near the right narrow surface, and a shallow end near the left narrow surface.
- the bottom surface of the thick plate portion includes two dovetail tenons 112 positioned opposite the dovetail grooves 111 respectively, and two slant tongues 113 positioned opposite the slant grooves 114 respectively.
- the dovetail tenons 112 and the slant tongues 113 are shaped in conformity with the dovetail grooves 111 and the slant grooves 114 respectively.
- a sheet 22 can be attached to a surface of the thin plate portion 115.
- a plastic sheet 21 can be heat pressed onto the thin plate portion 115 by the high frequency technique.
- the thick plate portion of the uppermost plate 11a may have a planar upper surface S1 attached to the upper cover of the album, while the lowermost plate 11b may have a planar bottom surface S2 attached to the bottom cover of the album.
- the thickness of the thin plate portion 115 is about one third that of the thick plate portion.
- three pairs of adjacent upward posts 117 may be provided vertically on the upper surface of the thin plate portion of a plate 110.
- three separate downward posts 118 may be provided vertically on the bottom surface of the thin plate portion. Any two adjacent upward posts 117 define therebetween a channel opposite one of the downward posts 118 and form together a U-shaped projecting block.
- the upward posts 117 are of the same height as the downward posts 118.
- the total sum of the thickness of the thin plate portion of the plate 110 plus the height of the posts 117, 118 is equal to the thickness of the thick plate portion of the plate 110.
- the downward post 118 of the first plate 110 is inserted between the upward posts 117 of the second plate 110.
- the assembled upward posts 117 and downward post 118 can be passed through the punched holes of a plurality of loose-leave papers A, thereby forming the contents of a file.
- the thickness of the thick plate portion of the plate 110 is substantially greater than that of the thin plate portion of the plate 110 so as to hold a great number of loose-leaf papers A on the posts 117, 118.
- three plastic press arms 9 may extend downwardly and outwardly from the bottom surface of the thin plate portion.
- the arms 9 are integrally formed with the plate. After two plates has been connected by above-metioned dovetail joints, the free ends of the arms 9 of the upper plate can be turned upward allowing a plurality of loose-leaf papers to be inserted between the thin plate portions of the plates. If the operator lets go of the arms 9, the free ends of the arms 9 of the upper plate will automatically turn downward to press the loose-leaf papers against the thin plate portion of the lower plate.
- the photograph album or file binder formed from the unitary plastic plates in accordance with this invention has the following advantages:
