[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0014] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples, and all modifications within the meaning and scope of the claims for utility model registration are included. Furthermore, the same reference numerals are used for identical or equivalent elements, and redundant explanations are omitted. Note that each figure is a schematic representation to the extent that the invention can be understood, and some parts, such as size, angle, or thickness, may be exaggerated. Each figure may depict mutually orthogonal XYZ axes, with the +X side being the right side, the -X side the left side, the +Y side the top, the -Y side the bottom, the +Z side the front, and the -Z side the back. [Examples]

[0015] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a card file according to the first embodiment of the present invention in a closed state, where Figure 1(a) is a front view and Figure 1(b) is a right side view. As shown in Figure 1, the card file 10 comprises a case 20 in which a front cover portion 22, a back cover portion 24, and a spine portion 26 are integrally formed, and a plurality of sheets 30 bound between the front cover portion 22 and the back cover portion 24 of the case 20. In this invention, the case 20 is rectangular in front view, but is not limited to this, and may have other shapes. Furthermore, the case 20 or the sheets 30 may be transparent or translucent, and may have patterns or designs on their front or back surfaces.

[0016] Figure 2 is a schematic front view of a card file according to the first embodiment of the present invention in an open state. Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram of the pocket portion of the card file according to the first embodiment of the present invention, illustrated as a right side view of Figure 2. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the card file 10 is configured by welding (for example, ultrasonic welding) a plurality of sheets 30 to the back 26 of the file in a stacked state. Pocket portions 32 for storing the card C are provided at both longitudinal ends (the vertical direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) of each sheet 30. That is, each sheet 30 has a pair of pocket portions 32 formed at both longitudinal ends. These pocket portions 32 are partitioned from each other by a welding portion 36 formed at the central portion of the sheet 30. One pocket portion 32 is provided on the front side of the sheet 30, and the other pocket portion 32 is provided on the back side of the sheet 30. That is, the pocket portions 32 are arranged alternately on the front and back. Thereby, when the sheet 30 is turned over, the pocket portions 32 are always located on the same side (the front side in FIGS. 2 and 3). Each pocket portion 32 has an opening 34 that opens to the welding portion (hereinafter, also referred to as the sheet welding portion) 36 side, and the card C is inserted and removed through this opening 34. A separating portion 38 that can separate each pocket portion 32 is formed between each pocket portion 32 of the welded single sheet 30 and the welding portion 36. Each separating portion 38 is a perforated separating line formed along the short side direction (the left - right direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) of the sheet 30. Also, a dashed - line - shaped welding portion (hereinafter, also referred to as the pocket welding portion) 37 formed along the longitudinal direction at both short - side ends of the pocket portion 32 is for providing the pocket portion by folding and welding the sheet 30. In FIG. 2, the welding portion 36 is shown as being formed in a shape in which triangles and inverted triangles are juxtaposed along the short - side direction of the sheet 30, but it is not limited to this shape.

[0017] The inner dimensions of the card storage area in the pocket portion 32 are, for example, approximately 98 mm in the longitudinal direction and approximately 70 mm in the short transverse direction. Further, the outer dimensions of the pocket portion 32 separated from the sheet 30 are approximately 101 mm in the longitudinal direction and approximately 74 mm in the short transverse direction. These dimensions are set to be large enough to accommodate, for example, standard trading cards (size approximately 63 mm × 88 mm) and card sleeves (size approximately 66 mm × 90 mm). Thus, since the card C stored in the card sleeve can be stored in the pocket portion 32, it is also possible to double-protect the card C. Note that these outer and inner dimensions are not limited to those described above and can be appropriately changed according to the sizes of various cards to be stored.

[0018] In the present invention, although the pocket portions 32 have been described as being arranged alternately on the front and back sides, the present invention is not limited thereto, and each pocket portion 32 may be arranged on either the front surface side or the back surface side of the sheet 30, and the number of pocket portions 32 can also be appropriately changed.

[0019] FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of the case of separating the pocket portion from the card file according to the first embodiment of the present invention. When a user of the card file 10 exchanges or sells the card C or the like, as shown in FIG. 4, the user can separate the pocket portion 32 in which the target card C is stored along the separation line of the separation portion 38. That is, the target card C can be taken out from the card file 10 in a state where the card C is stored in the pocket portion 32. Therefore, when exchanging or selling, etc., it is possible to save the trouble of taking out the card C from the pocket portion 32, prevent the taken-out card C from being exposed, and suppress the occurrence of soiling, breakage, etc. of the card C. Thus, the card file 10 of the present invention can correspond to both the use of organizing and storing the card C as a file in a state where the card C is stored in the pocket portion 32 and the use of taking out the pocket portion 32 together with the card C for exchange, sale, etc.

Embodiment

[0020] Figure 5 is a schematic front view of a card file according to a second embodiment of the present invention in an open state. In the second embodiment, each sheet 30 is bound to the case 20 by a ring-shaped fastener 40, which is different from the first embodiment. As shown in Figure 5, the card file 10 has a binder 40 having, for example, three rings 42 fixed to the back 26 of the case 20 at predetermined intervals, and each ring 42 can be separated into arc-shaped members by the user's operation. Each sheet 30 has a pocket portion 32 provided on at least one of the front or back sides, and a separation portion 38 is formed to allow the pocket portion 32 to be separated from the sheet 30, and binding holes 44 are provided at positions corresponding to the rings 42. After inserting each arc-shaped member into each binding hole 44, each sheet 30 is held by the rings 42 by rejoining each arc-shaped member into a ring shape. When a user of the card file 10 wants to exchange or sell a card C, they can separate the pocket portion 32 of the sheet 30 containing the card C along the separation line 38. Thus, since each sheet 30 is individually bound by the fastener 40, it does not require a welded portion 36 as in the first embodiment. Furthermore, because the sheets 30 are bound by the ring-shaped fastener 40, even if the number of sheets 30 decreases due to the removal of the pocket portion 32, new sheets 30 can be added to replenish them. In addition, any unnecessary sheet pieces remaining after the pocket portion 32 has been removed can be removed. [Examples]

[0021] Figure 6 is a schematic front view of a card file according to the third embodiment of the present invention in an open state. Figure 7 is an explanatory diagram of how to detach the pocket portion from the card file according to the third embodiment of the present invention. In the third embodiment, each sheet 30 has four pocket portions 32, and each pocket portion 32 is formed with a roughly T-shaped separation portion 38 in a front view, which allows each pocket portion 32 to be separated individually, thus differing from the first embodiment. As shown in Figure 6, the card file 10 has two pocket sections 32 formed consecutively in the short direction at both longitudinal ends of each sheet 30. Separation sections 38 are formed between each pocket section 32 and the welded section 36, and between adjacent pocket sections 32. As shown in Figure 7, when a user of the card file 10 wants to exchange or sell a card C, they can separate the pocket portion 32 of the sheet 30 containing the card C along the separation line 38. It is also possible to separate adjacent pocket portions 32 together. In this way, the roughly T-shaped separation section 38 is formed, making it possible to separate each pocket section 32 individually or to separate adjacent pocket sections 32 together. Furthermore, since four pocket sections 32 are provided on one sheet 30, many cards C can be organized and stored. As described above, the card file 10 of the present invention comprises a case 20 in which a front cover portion 22, a back cover portion 24, and a spine portion 26 are integrally formed, a plurality of sheets 30 bound between the front cover portion 22 and the back cover portion 24, and each sheet 30 having a pocket portion 32 capable of storing a card C and a detachable portion 38 that allows the pocket portion 32 to be detached from each sheet 30. Since the pocket portion 32 can be detached from each sheet 30 while a card C is stored inside, it is possible to smoothly replace or sell cards C, and damage or soiling of cards C can be suppressed.
