Auxiliary binding jig
10173451 · 2019-01-08 · ·

An auxiliary binding jig is configured for assisting a plurality of binding members to bind a plurality of papers into a bound document, and includes an auxiliary plate body having opposite first and second planar surfaces, and a plurality of engaging holes extending through the first and second planar surfaces and each having a constriction which divides a respective engaging hole into two hole portions and which is formed by two press tabs defining therebetween a slot communicating with the hole portions. The press tabs are configured to press against an outer ring of each binding member when each binding member is inserted into a respective engaging hole through the slot so as to position each binding member on the auxiliary plate body.

DEVICE WITH QUICK-ATTACH FEATURE

A system including a panel having a panel opening and a coupling device coupled to the panel. The coupling device includes a coupling device opening and a flange positioned adjacent to the coupling device opening. The coupling device opening at least partially overlaps with the panel opening, and the flange is elastically deflectable to allow a binding mechanism to pass the flange and into or out of the coupling device opening.

Sheet post-processing device and image forming device provided with the sheet post-processing device

A sheet post-processing device includes a conveying section that conveys a paper sheet; a punch section that punches punch holes in the paper sheet conveyed by the conveying section; a stacker section that stores the paper sheet in which the punch holes are punched by the punch section; a binding section that binds a paper sheet bundle stored in the stacker section with a binding member; and a controller that controls the above sections. The controller selectively performs a ring binding mode and a direct binding mode. The ring binding mode is a mode in which punch holes are punched in the paper sheet by the punch section and then the binding member is made to penetrate the punch holes for binding. The direct binding mode is a mode in which the binding member is directly driven into the paper sheet bundle without punching the punch holes in the sheet.
