Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an instrument used for filing documents and the like, and particularly relates to a file that can file while drilling holes using a blade attached to a ring.

Background Art

[0002] Generally, conventional files require operations such as making holes in paper before sandwiching the paper, and cannot be filed simply by sandwiching.

[0003] It has been concluded that the file that best satisfies the "ease of clamping", "visibility", and "large capacity" of the file is a two-hole file with two rings in the center.

[0004] However, when using a two-hole file, for paper without holes, the process of making holes with a hole punch is required every time filing is done, and the economic efficiency of the work has to be sacrificed.

[0005] Therefore, instead of making holes and then filing, a file in which the blade part of the hole punch and the ring of the ring file are integrated so that filing can be done simultaneously with sandwiching the paper has been desired.

[0006] In addition, many conventional hole punches are large, require force to use the lever principle, and cannot be easily carried and punched with little force.

[0007] A compact hole punch that can be safely punched by anyone with little force and is easy to carry has been desired.

[0008] Therefore, by attaching a retractable blade that enters and exits by a spring inside the ring to the tip of the ring, safety is ensured. Instead of meshing the rings with each other to form a ring during filing, a strong magnet is placed on the opposite side of the tip of the ring where the blade is stored, and by filing with magnetic force, the hole punching operation can be performed without using force.

[0009] Therefore, as a file integrated with a punching punch that enables drilling and filing operations simultaneously, various proposals have been made based on the prior art as listed below.

[0010] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technical idea that provides a punching punch and a two-hole file. However, in this example, the tip of the punching rod that serves as the punching blade is exposed and very dangerous. Also, a fixed front cover (front cover) and a back cover (back cover) are required, which limits the amount of paper that can be filed. And it has not presented a fundamental solution to the conventional problem that a large force is required for punching holes.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0012] It cannot be denied that in the conventional technologies or technical ideas, when filing paper in a general file, having to punch holes in the paper to open rings or using loose-leaf with pre-drilled holes from the beginning has also been an obstacle to a fundamental solution to the above problems. Also, in the case of conventional punch files, most are for temporary fixing or have a small capacity of around 10 sheets, and not much focus has been placed on large capacity and ease of use as a file.

[0013] The present invention aims to solve such problems in the prior art. By using a blade in the punch part of the main body or setting the ring part longer, the problem of capacity is solved. Instead of punching holes and then filing, a file is developed in which the blade part of the hole punch and the ring of the ring file are integrated, enabling filing while sandwiching the paper. The object is to provide a hole punch integrated file that can significantly improve safety, workability, and economic efficiency.

Means for Solving the Problem

[0014] To solve such a problem, the hole punch integrated file according to the present invention includes a front and back cover having the strength and thickness of cardboard sized according to the size of the paper to be filed, a linear storage part near the left side of the front and back cover, one end of which is fixed and the other end has a rotating shaft, and a quarter-circular curved ring lever part that rotates around the rotating shaft, which is a two-hole filing part, and a flat and powerful magnet installed and fixed inside the front and back cover into which the tip of the curved ring lever part is rotatably inserted. The hole punch integrated file has a vertically movable hole punch blade housed by a spring inside the tip cylindrical part of the curved ring lever part. By rotating the tip of the curved ring lever part and pressing it against the paper to be filed, the hole punch blade is attracted by the powerful magnet to punch a file hole in the paper to be filed, and the paper to be filed can be filed in the linear storage part of the filing part.

[0015] The above hole punch integrated file according to the present invention is also apparent from reference to FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4.

[0016] In addition, the curved ring lever part of the hole punch integrated file according to the present invention rotates to the left outside of the linear storage part around the rotating shaft, applies the paper to be the paper to be filed with the back side facing the front on the left side surface of the front and back cover, and is also characterized in that a hole can be punched by the pressing contact of the hole punch blade from the back side of the paper.

[0017] In addition, one end of the spring inside the cylindrical part at the tip of the curved ring lever part of the punching punch integrated file according to the present invention is fixed inside the cylinder, and the other end is fixed to the punching blade. Therefore, normally, the punching blade is stored inside the cylindrical tip part of the curved ring lever part. When punching a filing hole, the cylindrical tip part of the curved ring lever part and the punching blade have mutual cylindrical tip stopper parts and magnet stopper parts, which also has the feature of preventing the punching blade from popping out. (See FIGS. 2, 3, and 4)

[0018] The punching punch integrated file according to the present invention is configured to include a two-hole file with a blade at the tip of the ring, a punching punch that uses magnetic force to make holes, a back cover (hereinafter referred to as the back cover), and a belt for gathering filed documents.

[0019] The above-mentioned punching punch integrated file is a new type of punch file in which a punching punch and a two-hole file are integrated by attaching a blade for the punching punch to the tip of the ring file.

[0020] That is, it becomes possible to perform filing simultaneously while sandwiching paper in the file. Therefore, the labor such as separate work of making holes in the paper for filing is significantly reduced. The labor for filing paper without holes is greatly shortened, and since there is no upper limit to the number of papers to be sandwiched like a pocket file, the frequency of purchasing additional files is significantly reduced, and thereby the reduction of the amount of plastic used is realized. In this punching punch integrated file, holes similar to those at the sites where the punching punch is used are formed by the blades at the tips of the two rings, so that further time saving for file workers becomes possible.

[0021] This mechanism installs a strong magnet facing the iron blade, which is different from the conventional punching punch, and makes holes using magnetic force. Thereby, the operation of making holes can be easily performed with less force.

[0022] Alternatively, instead of completely adhering the blade and the ring, the blade can be moved up and down inside the ring by connecting them with a spring. Therefore, when making a hole, the blade is extended outside the ring, and during filing, the tip of the ring comes into contact with a strong magnet, causing the blade to be retracted into the ring, thus enhancing the safety of the operation.

[0023] The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that a hole is made by utilizing the attracting force between the blade and a strong magnet by charging a strong magnet on the facing surface of the blade.

[0024] According to this invention, a hole can be made with less force than when using this principle like a conventional hole-punch, so people of a wide range of ages and those with weak strength can easily use it.

[0025] The invention according to claim 3 is characterized in that the blade attached to the tip of the ring is housed inside the ring when functioning as a ring, and is drawn out by a strong magnet when functioning as a blade, and the stopper portion at the tip of the cylindrical ring prevents the blade from protruding outside.

[0026] According to this invention, the blade comes out only when needed, and when in the shape of a ring where the blade is not needed, the blade is housed inside, minimizing accidental incidents and allowing for safe use.

[0027] The invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that the back cover has a belt for fixing the paper to be filed by sandwiching it from above near the right side thereof.

[0028] According to this invention, even when a large number of prints are sandwiched, the prints can be stored.

[0029] In any of the above configurations, the hole-punch integrated file according to the present invention has been devised also in the punch portion of the punch file, resulting in a structure that is easy to clamp with little force required. Compared to conventional punch files, it has become a punch file that can be used by a wider age group as it can clamp paper in units of several hundred sheets.

[0030] Therefore, it leads to ensuring a higher level of safety and significantly enhancing work efficiency in the operations of punching holes during filing and clamping the paper into the file.

[0031] In the above configuration, it may be further provided with a separate part or a variable device of a ring body storage type in the paper storage portion of the ring. By providing a variable ring, when only 50 sheets are to be clamped, the ring portion can also be made shorter, and when 500 sheets are to be clamped, the ring portion can be made longer, thereby achieving further compactness.

Advantages of the Invention

[0032] According to the present invention, a hole-punch integrated file capable of significantly improving the workability of filing into a two-hole file and also significantly enhancing economic efficiency is realized. Therefore, a fundamental solution is provided for the current situation where a general two-hole file is inevitably required to take an extra step of punching holes with a hole-punch before clamping printed materials or the like.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0034] Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that, hereinafter, the scope necessary for the description for achieving the object of the present invention will be schematically shown, and mainly the scope necessary for the description of the corresponding part of the present invention will be described, and the parts where the description is omitted shall be based on known techniques.

[0035] FIG. 1 is a perspective conceptual diagram showing an overall image of a punching punch integrated file according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, it is a punch file that attaches the blade of a punching punch to the ring part of a two-hole file and simultaneously performs the operation of punching holes and the operation of filing.

[0036] A punching punch integrated file according to an embodiment of the present invention is, as shown in FIG. 1, composed of a filing part 3 including a linear storage part 4, a rotating shaft 6, and a curved ring lever part 5 that is connected to the rotating shaft 6 and rotates, and a front and back cover 1 to which the filing part 3 is fixed. The paper to be filed is depicted in the figure as the paper to be filed 2.

[0037] FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram showing the movement of the filing part of a punching punch integrated file according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, it is a conceptual diagram showing the details of the movement of the filing part 3 as a longitudinal section. As shown in the left figure of FIG. 2, the filing part 3 fixed to the front and back cover 1 is composed of a linear storage part 4, a rotating shaft 6, and a curved ring lever part 5. With respect to the paper 9 placed at a fixed position, the curved ring lever part 5 rotates in the direction of the arrow to punch a hole. Next, as shown in the middle figure, the paper 9 is moved in the direction of the arrow by the curved ring lever part 5 and is filed as shown in the right figure.

[0038] Instead of stacking papers and making holes from the front side to the back side of the paper or passing rings through them like conventional ring files or hole punches as shown in FIG. 2, the front cover is opened, and with the inside of the opened cover as a base, holes are made from the back side to the front side of the paper, and the paper with holes is filed through the ring simply by closing the cover. Illustration of the variable blade attached to the ring tip is omitted.

[0039] FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram of the filing part of a hole punch integrated file according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, inside the cylindrical part at the tip of the curved ring lever part 5, a hole punch blade 11 is fixed by a spring 10. In FIG. 3, the hole punch blade 11 is attached by the magnetic force of a strong magnet 8 fixed inside the back cover 1. As shown in the figure, the shape of the curved ring lever part 5 is like a substantially quarter circle (four semi - circles), and when the tip part used as the hole punch part is pressed against the paper 9, the hole punch blade 11 is attracted by the strong attractive force of the strong magnet 8 and moves, and at the same time, a hole is made in the paper 9. A linear storage part 4 is used for "storage of punched papers" used as the file part.

[0040] FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram of the movement of the hole punch blade of a hole punch integrated file according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, a strong magnet 8 is installed on the opposite side of the iron hole punch blade 11, and the magnetic force that the hole punch blade 11 is attracted to the strong magnet 8 is utilized to make a hole. As shown in the left - hand figure of FIG. 4, when making a hole in the paper, the hole punch blade 11 pops out from the cylindrical tip part 14 of the curved ring lever part, but due to the magnet stopper part 12 and the cylindrical tip stopper part 13, it does not pop out outside the curved ring lever. After making a hole in the paper, as shown in the right - hand figure, the cylindrical tip part 14 of the curved ring lever part contacts the strong magnet 8 and stabilizes, the spring 10 contracts, and the hole punch blade 11 fits inside the cylindrical tip part 14 of the curved ring lever part.

[0041] Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, the length of the linear storage portion 4 of the filing portion 3 can be made variable. All of these are part of this technical idea.

Industrial Applicability

[0042] As described above, according to the invention of the present application, there is provided a mechanism in which a blade is housed within a ring, ensuring the safety of a hole-punch by making a hole with magnetic force, and simultaneously performing the operation of making a hole in paper and the operation of filing, thereby significantly improving the workability of a two-hole file while also significantly improving the economic efficiency. Thus, a file integrated with a hole-punch capable of achieving these is realized. Therefore, the present invention provides a fundamental solution to the current situation where it is unavoidably necessary to take an extra step of making a hole in paper with a hole-punch during filing.

[0043] Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the business related to its manufacture and sale, and is also applicable to all students, working people, weak people, and elderly people who are fighting against time. Thus, the present application brings great benefits to society as a whole.
