[0024] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to facilitate practice by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs. However, the invention may be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. In order to clearly illustrate the invention in the drawings, parts not pertinent to the description have been omitted, and like parts throughout the specification have been designated by like drawing numerals.

[0025] Throughout the specification, when a part is the to “include” a component, it means that it may further include other components, not that it excludes other components, unless specifically stated to the contrary.

[0026] Hereinafter, a clipboard for conveniently fixing document 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] FIG. 1 is an overall drawing illustrating a configuration of a clipboard for conveniently fixing document 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the clipboard 10 may be formed of a plate body 100 having a predetermined area for supporting document paper 500, and a clip portion 200 extending from a first edge of the plate body 100 to fix a document supported on the plate body 100 from falling off the plate body 100.

[0028] The clip portion 200 may include a first fixing member 210 extending from the plate body 100, a second fixing member 220, and a third fixing member formed on the plate body 100 symmetrically with respect to the second fixing member 220 and the boundary with the plate body 100.

[0029] Further, the clipboard for conveniently fixing document 10, including the plate body 100 and the clip portion 200, may be covered with a predetermined material. In a further embodiment, the clipboard 10, including the plate body 100 and the clip portion 200, may be covered with a material including leather or synthetic leather, but the material is not limited to these examples and various materials may be applied.

[0030] FIG. 2 is a partial enlarged view showing a clip portion 200 of a clipboard for conveniently fixing document 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, the clip portion 200 comprises a first fixing member 210, a second fixing member 220, and a third fixing member 230, each of which may be formed with a magnetic portion 310 and a support portion 320 supporting the magnetic portion 310.

[0031] In FIG. 2, the support portion 320 is illustrated by a dotted line, which shows an interior when the plate body 100 and the clip portion 200 are covered with a predetermined material.

[0032] The first fixing member 210 and the second fixing member 220 may be formed in the shape of a polygon, and are illustrated in the drawings in the shape of a triangle as one embodiment. In this case, the first fixing member 210 and the second fixing member 220 may be formed in the shape of a right triangle, and the second fixing member 220 may be configured such that any one of the two sides constituting the right angle abuts the plate body 100.

[0033] Further, the clip portion 200 and the plate body 100 may be formed by protruding by a predetermined thickness.

[0034] In this embodiment, each fixture includes at least one magnetic portion 310 and a support portion 320.

[0035] Furthermore, when formed with a plurality of magnetic portions 310, the size of each of the magnetic portions 310 may be configured differently from each other. In this case, a permanent magnet including neodymium may be used as the magnet of the magnetic portion 310 formed in each fixture. In addition, magnets may be disposed in the magnetic portion 310 in accordance with the direction of the N and S poles according to the direction in which each fixture is folded. As shown in FIG. 3C, when all of the fixing members are folded, the magnet of the third fixing member 230 may be positioned in the middle. Thus, the magnets may be arranged in consideration of the polarity of the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210 to the third fixing member 230.

[0036] Since the polarity of the magnetic portions 310 of the first fixing member 210 and the third fixing member 230 should face opposite to the polarity of the magnetic portions 310 of the second fixing member 220, the first fixing member 210 and the third fixing member 230 dispose magnetic portions 310 of the same polarity, the magnetic portion 310 of the second fixing member 220 may require placement of the magnetic portion 310 opposite to the polarity of the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210 and the third fixing member 230 .

[0037] Alternatively, any one of the first fixing member 210, the second fixing member 220 and the third fixing member 230 may include a magnetic portion, and at least one of the other fixings may include a ferrous material that adheres to the magnet.

[0038] Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 3A through 3C, the operation of the clip portion 200 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0039] Comparing FIGS. 3A and 3B, the second fixing member 220, which is formed extending in a first direction from the plate body 100, can be folded and covered in the front direction of the plate body 100 relative to a boundary surface of the plate body 100, and can come into contact with the third fixing member 230. At this time, the magnetic portion 310 of the second fixing member 220 and the magnetic portion 310 of the third fixing member 230 correspond to the same position as each other, but when the document paper 500 is fixed, the document paper 500 may be positioned between the second fixing member 220 and the third fixing member 230 to be fixed by the magnet so that it does not fall off.

[0040] Comparing FIGS. 3B and 3C, in a state in which the second fixing member 220 and the third fixing member 230 are folded to meet, the first fixing member 210 is folded relative to the top boundary surface of the plate body 100 to meet the plate body 100, and the position of the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210 is positioned correspondingly to the position of the magnetic portion 310 of the third fixing member 230 so that the second fixing member 220 does not float and can be fixed.

[0041] As a further embodiment, it may be realized that the document paper is fixed on the clipboard according to one embodiment of the present invention even if only one of the magnetic portions 310 of the first fixing member 210 and the second fixing member 220 is present. For example, in the absence of the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210, the second fixing member is folded in the front direction of the plate body relative to the boundary surface of the plate body so that the second fixing member 220 and the third fixing member 230 come into contact, and the magnetic portion 310 of each is fixed correspondingly, so that the document paper can be fixed between the second fixing member 220 and the third fixing member 230.

[0042] Furthermore, if the magnetic portion 310 of the second fixing member 220 does not exist, when the second fixing member 220 is folded in the rearward direction of the plate body relative to the boundary surface of the plate body, the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210 and the magnetic portion 310 of the third fixing member 230 can be symmetrically aligned relative to the upper surface boundary surface of the plate body, In this case, when the first fixing member 210 is folded toward the upper surface boundary of the plate body, the magnetic portion 310 of the first fixing member 210 contacts the magnetic portion 310 of the third fixing member 230 in a position corresponding to the magnetic portion 310 of the third fixing member 230, so that the document paper can be fixed by sandwiching the document paper between the first fixing member 210 and the third fixing member 230.

[0043] Furthermore, when the first fixing member 210 and the second fixing member 220 of the clipboard 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention are triangular, when the document paper 500 that is fixed is turned over, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the document paper 500 comes into contact with the sides of the second fixing member 220, so that the document paper 500 may not be damaged when the document paper 500 is turned over.

[0044] In a further embodiment, another document paper 500 can be additionally fixed between the first fixing member 210 and the plate body 100, so that two pieces of document paper 500 can be fixed on both sides of the clipboard 10 at once.

[0045] In a further embodiment, the plate body 100 may be formed by layering a plurality of plate-like materials. For example, the plate body 100 may be formed by layering a plastic plate material, including rigid PVC, with a laminate. In this case, the material used may not be limiting as long as it is implemented in a form that is capable of supporting document paper 500 in a plate-like form.

[0046] In a further embodiment, described with reference to FIG. 5, the second fixing member 220 is formed extending in a direction away from the plate body 100, and the first fixing member 210 is formed in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the second fixing member 220 is formed, such that when the second fixing member 220 is folded over the front of the plate body 100, it may be folded relative to a boundary surface of the plate body 100 and positioned at a rear of the plate body 100.

[0047] While the methods and systems of the present disclosure have been described with respect to specific embodiments, some or all of their components or operations may be implemented using computer systems having a general purpose hardware architecture.

[0048] The foregoing description of the invention is for illustrative purposes only, and one having ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the invention belongs will understand that it can be readily adapted to other specific forms without changing the technical idea or essential features of the invention. It should therefore be understood that the embodiments described above are exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. For example, each of the components described in a single form may be implemented in a distributed manner, and similarly, components described as distributed may be implemented in a combined form.

[0049] The scope of the invention is indicated by the following claims rather than by the detailed description above, and the meaning and scope of the claims and all modifications or variations derived from the equivalents thereof shall be construed to be within the scope of the invention.
