The invention relates to a support device conventionally used in conjunction with binder systems to support binder strap securing means for securing binder straps in such binder systems, to thereby secure a number of sheets of material together. The support device comprises an elongate member having an elongate channel section body portion and a clamping flange extending from the body portion along the length thereof, whereby an edge portion of a cover sheet or the like can be located and secured between the body portion and the clamping flange. The invention therefore also extends to a binder system including such a support device and to a cover sheet having such a support device secured thereto. By providing two such support devices a number of sheets of material can be bound between two cover sheets secured to the devices.
A binder system comprising a support device and a securing means for binder straps of the binder system to co-operate with the support device, the support device comprising an elongate member of a plastically deformable material having an elongate channel section body portion within which a binder strap is securable by the securing means and having an integral clamping flange extending from the body portion along the length thereof for clamping an edge portion of a cover sheet between it and the body portion, by the plastic deformation of the flange portion, for locating the support device on said cover sheet.
A support device for a binder system to support a securing means for binder straps of the binder system, the support device comprising an elongate member of plastically deformable material having an elongate channel section body portion within which said binder straps are securable by said securing means when supported by the support device, and having an integral clamping flange extending from the body portion along the length thereof for clamping an edge portion of a cover sheet between the clamping flange and the body portion, by the plastic deformation of the flange portion, to thereby locate the support device on said cover sheet.
