Abstract: A ring binder device for a file serves to hold documents and to provide a means whereby the file can be suspended spine uppermost between two carrier rails, the device having slide-mounted suspender members which can be set, by moving their slide mountings, to protrude beyond the edges of the file ready for resting on the rails, and the slide mountings incorporating locks operative when the suspender members are protruding to prevent the binder opening.

Abstract: A novel one-piece holder is provided for binding a multi-leaf computer printout and mounting the same in a suspension-filing and/or storing system.

Abstract: A file has a pin-type document binding mechanism formed by two co-operating binding elements which can be united to close and lock the binding and so secure documents therein, and the binding has two captive, slideable brackets which can be pulled apart until they protrude from either end of the spine of the file to enable the file to be suspended spine-uppermost between rails of a file suspension system.

Abstract: A frame or rack including novel means for suspending therein data binders or the like in a multitude of positions and the lateral guide channels or tracks and co-operating hanger handles or bars used for lateral suspension.

Abstract: A box having an inner box-shaped member of a relatively rigid but foldable material and having at least one side open and a cover member of a relatively thin, but foldable material which extends over at least the bottom and two opposite sides of said box-shaped member as well as the upper portions of said box-shaped member sides with a profile on said side upper portions.

Abstract: A suspension file folder having a suspension bar with hanger elements at its ends each formed with a hanger hook embodying means for suspending the file folder at one or both ends. The hanger elements can be integral with the suspension bar or slidable thereon into a plurality of positions.

Abstract: A binder carrying handle for ready insertion in and support of a bound volume of sheets in which the handle is engageable with posts in the binder volume. The handle is flexible and shaped to facilitate its insertion and removal.

Abstract: A structure for supporting hanging file folders in a file drawer. The structure includes a pair of wire members which are adapted to be installed in a file drawer in lateral spaced relation to each other. Each wire member includes an elongated generally straight center portion which receives and supports the file folders and a leg positioned at each end of the center portion. Each of the legs is in the shape of an inverted L and includes a horizontally extending portion which connects to the center portion of the wire member. This horizontally extending portion projects at right angles to the center portion. A vertical portion of each leg which connects to the horizontal portion of its leg is adapted to be inserted in supporting bosses. The supporting bosses may be formed in rectangular plates located at each end of the pair of wire members or may be formed in the end panels of the file drawer. The wire members are formed of stock having a transverse cross section of generally rectangular shape.

Abstract: Document filing apparatus comprising two rails adapted for mounting on opposite side edges of a drawer or the like container for converting the drawer to contain documents or files in a suspended filing system and a plurality of tabs which are attachable to the documents or files and which can be slidably mounted on the rails. Each rail comprises a channel shaped portion having two side walls joined by a web, which is adapted to embrace the edge of the drawer to locate the rail on the drawer edge, and a flange projecting outwardly from one of the side walls of the rail to slidably carry an end of each tab. The flange has a horizontal guideway surface for the tab and a rib spaced from the side wall of the rail which locates in a recess formed in the tab to locate the tab on the rail and resist accidental dislodgement of the tab from the rail.

Abstract: A hanger and sheet lifter for ring binders or the like whereby the ring binder may be hung on spaced parallel rails conventionally employed in many filing systems. The hanger is defined by an elongated member having a length greater than the length of the spine of the ring binder with which it is to be used. The ends of the member are provided with hooks which open in the same direction. The member also includes a plurality of slots corresponding in number to the number of rings in the ring binder in which it is to be used and which extends longitudinally of the member. The length of the slot is such that the hanger can move from a position wherein both hooks extend outwardly from opposite ends of the spine of the ring binder to a position wherein one of the hooks is wholly received within the ring binder to enable the ring binder to be stood on end without the lowermost hook interfering with the supporting surface.

Abstract: A novel packaging system for use in packaging and distributing medicines, comprising a portable means supporting a plurality of packages in vertical, depending position, these packages having a flimsy, non self-supporting, sheet forming a lower, compartmentalized, medicine-holding means and also having, integrally connected to the package, an upstanding, upper, label of relatively rigid, self-supporting cardboard, which includes downwardly facing bearing surfaces formed by the laterally projecting bottom edges of the label for cooperation with, and to facilitate suspension on, the aforesaid portable apparatus.
