The retention element (182) includes a first plate (186) and a second plate (188) longitudinally spaced apart from the first plate such that a slot (190) is defined therebetween, and wherein at least one of the sheets of the stack is adapted to pass through the slot.

A method for making an agenda with an integrated housing for a writing instrument is disclosed. The method uses a sheet having lines of creases and a plurality of elements which form the cover of the agenda and are mutually separated in their inside by corresponding first parallel creases, and a plurality of quadrangular strips separated in their inside by second creases arranged transversely to the first parallel creases. The plurality of strips is connected to a first element of the plurality of elements. The plurality of strips is folded to form a tubular frame. One of the strips adheres to the surface of the first element to fasten the tubular frame. The plurality of elements is folded so that the first element is a part of one side of the agenda cover, and a second element is a part of a second side of the agenda cover. A block of sheets is fastened to the sheet and extends below the tubular frame.

A pad of a plurality of sheets of expandable slit paper is provided in which the paper expands in thickness when stretched to form expanded cells, wherein the sheets of expandable slit paper are bound together along a single edge and otherwise unbound together. In some embodiments, sheets of slit sheet material are removable for use of the slit sheet material for packing items or the like with the slit sheet material in an expanded state.

A multipurpose stationery tool includes a base including a pair of holders, a pair of first position-limiting portions and a pair of second position-limiting portions, a supporting unit including a pair of pivoting portions respectively pivotally connected to the pivot holders and a pair of swinging portions opposite to the pivoting portions and being adjustable in position relative to the base between an extended position where the supporting unit is stopped in place by the first position-limiting portions and a received position where the supporting unit is stopped in place by the second position-limiting portion, and an upper holder block adjustable in position relative to the supporting unit and including a holder block base pivotally connected to the swinging portions, a pair of extension rods bilaterally extended from the holder block base and two stop portions for stopping against the swinging portions in the extended position. Subject to the pivotable relationship between the base, the supporting unit and the upper holder block, the multipurpose stationery tool is practical for multipurpose applications.

An assembly (1) includes a laminate (2) in which tags (21) are laminated, and a support part (3) that supports the laminate (2). The support (part 3) includes a bottom surface part (31) and a folding back part (32) folded back from the bottom surface part (31). A reverse surface (2b) of the laminate (2) protrudes from the folding back part (32), and a part of the reverse surface (2b) is adhered to the folding back part (32) to be supported by the support part (3). A laminate adhesive part (7) to which a part of the reverse surface (2b) and the support part (3) are adhered is disposed in an overlapping region AR1 of the reverse surface (2b) and the folding back part (32) so as to be separated from at least a part of a peripheral edge E of the overlapping region AR1.

A dispensing structure (102) includes a housing member (112) defining a hollow space adapted to receive a stack (104). The housing member includes a first retention member (132) and a second retention member (140). The first retention member includes a first plate and a second plate longitudinally spaced apart from the first plate such that a slot (138) is defined therebetween. The second retention member defines an aperture (141) therethrough. The housing member is adapted to rotate relative to a base member (154). The base member includes a first portion (156) slidably received through the aperture of the second retention member, and a second portion (168). The second retention member is adapted to move towards the second portion based on removal of at least one of notes and flags from the stack.

A notepad includes multiple sheets that are arranged into a stack. Each sheet has a first major face, a second major face, and a perimeter edge at which each of the first and second major faces terminate. The notepad also includes an adhesive disposed on a portion of the second major face of each sheet such that the portion of the second major face of each sheet releasably adheres to a corresponding portion of the first major face of an underlying sheet. The portion being disposed with the adhesive lies adjacent to a portion of the perimeter edge of a corresponding sheet for forming a releasably bonded side of the stack. Also, the stack is twisted about a common central axis of the sheets present therein such that the notepad has a spiral shape.
