FOLDER WITH MAGNETIC CLOSURE ADAPTED FOR USE IN VISUAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
The present disclosure is directed to a folder including a magnetic closure adapted for use in a visual management system. The folder includes a back flap and a front flap that cooperate to define a storage area for papers. The magnetic closure is configured to selectively hold the folder in a closed position.
Suspension mount
A suspension mount is provided, which is capable of selectively hanging an electronic device onto different ceiling structures. The suspension mount includes a first member, a pivot shaft and a second member. The first member includes a first restriction unit and a second restriction unit. The second member pivots on the first member by the pivot shaft. The second member includes a third restriction unit and a fourth restriction unit. The first restriction unit corresponds to the third restriction unit. The second restriction unit corresponds to the fourth restriction unit. When the suspension mount is connected to the first ceiling structure, the first restriction unit and the fourth restriction unit abut a side of the first ceiling structure, and the second restriction unit and the third restriction unit abut the other side of the first ceiling structure.
Method for assembling a single-detent binder
A method for assembling a single-detent binder includes assembling ring shaped components and first and second baseplates to a housing. The first and second baseplates are longitudinally adjacent and parallelly arranged and connected to each other. The first and second baseplates include adjacent longitudinal edges and non-adjacent longitudinal edges. The first and second baseplates are so assembled as to pivot around the adjacent longitudinal edges in order to open or close the ring shaped components. The ring shaped components each include two half ring shaped elements. The half ring shaped elements each are fixed on the first and second baseplates and pass through the housing. The half ring shaped elements occlude to form a closed ring, and the half ring shaped elements disjoin to form an opened ring. The method further includes assembling the control component to the housing, rotatively connecting at least one rotary locking piece to a pull rod, rotatively connecting the rotary locking piece to one of the first and second baseplates, and operatively connecting the pull rod to the control component. The control component includes a handle, which enables the control component to rotate relative to the housing. Assembling the ring shaped components and the first and second baseplates to the housing are performed simultaneously with rotatively connecting the rotary locking piece to the pull rod.
Notebook squaring apparatus
An apparatus for selectively bracing and squaring opposite covers of a notebook includes a portion associated with an inner surface of one notebook cover and a connector associated with an inner surface of an opposite cover. When the connector and unfolded brace are attached to one another, the notebook is held in a generally square configuration wherein the opposing covers are disposed generally parallel to one another.
File folder hanging rods and related methods
File folder hanging rods and related methods are disclosed. An example hanging rod to hang a file folder includes a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and outer flanges extending between the first end and the second end. The example hanging rod includes a middle portion between and protruding from the outer flanges. The middle portion has an M-shaped cross-section to increase a rigidity of the hanging rod. The example hanging rod includes a first notch adjacent the first end and a second notch adjacent the second end that enable the hanging rod to hang from the support structure.
Binder apparatus
Example binder apparatus are disclosed. An example binder apparatus includes a housing and a plurality of rings supported by the housing. Each ring includes a first closure member and a second closure member. The first closure member has a first end defining an aperture having a first opening at least partially intersecting a second opening. The second closure member has a second end. The second end is receivable by the first opening to position the second end within the aperture and to enable a surface of the second end to be substantially flush with a surface of the first end immediately adjacent the second opening.
Binding component
A binding component includes ring back portions, first ring arm portions, second ring arm portions and a back part to which the ring back portions are connected. Each ring back portion, each first ring arm portion and each second ring arm portion forms an annular ring part. Each ring part includes fitting portions at places where the ring back portion and the first and second ring arm portions are connected. The fitting portions are configured to be fitted by an operation of opening and closing the first and second ring arm portions with hinge portions of the ring back portion. Each fitting portion includes at least one first fitting convex portion, at least one first fitting concave portion to engage with the first fitting convex portion, at least one second fitting convex portion and a second fitting concave portion to engage with the second fitting convex portion.
Housing for radon detectors
A wall mounted radon detector mount for an interior room of a building is disclosed. The mount includes a flat plate for permanently mounting to a wall or ceiling of the room and a housing mountable to the flat plate. The housing has an interior space containing at least one radon detector. The mount is provided with a mounting lock for mounting the housing to the flat plate and locking the housing to the plate such that the housing cannot be removed from the mounting plate. A key is provided for engaging the lock to permit the housing to be detached from the flat plate leaving the radon detectors mounted within the housing and accessible.
Arrangements and assembly methods for a media binder and its components
A media binder has an inner assembly and a case assembly, The inner assembly includes inside boards pre-attached to a binding mechanism. Adhesive is placed on outward surfaces of the inside boards. The case assembly includes a cover sheet with at least one marginal edge attached to surface boards and at least one loose edge. To customize cover, a printed cover is inserted in-between the cover sheet and the surface board through an opening formed by the loose edge. The case assembly is then laminated. The laminated case assembly is combined with the inner assembly using the adhesive on the inside boards. A one-piece media binder has cover sheets wrapping around surface boards forming pockets. The surface boards are partially attached to paste downs. To customize cover, printed covers are inserted into the pockets, and the paste downs are then attached to the surface boards to seal loose edges.
Component with Selectively Deployable Tabs
A component including a body having an outer edge, a first slit/opening formed or pre-formed therein and a second slit/opening formed or pre-formed therein. The component further includes a tab coupled to the body such that the tab is movable between a retracted position wherein the tab does not protrude beyond the outer edge, and an extended position wherein the tab extends through the first slit/opening, extends through the second slit/opening and protrudes beyond the outer edge.
