Patented May 5, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT oFFlc-E HANS nmrscnnn, or nnEsnEN-noscnwrrz, Gamma 3 CARD-CARRIER FOR CARD-FILES Application filed February 27, 1928, Serial n 257,44 and in. Germany March 7, 1927.
This invention relates to a card-carrier for card-files in which the cards are maintained suspended on lateral guides on the file box. The card-carrier accordin to the invention. difiers from the commondy used card-carriers in that a bar sliding on the guides has two or more clamps facing one another so that the cards can be easily fixed at their upper half in the clamps. The upper edge of the cards remains free and the centre of gravity of the card lies underneath the bearing edge of the card-carrier on the guides, so that the cards are automatically maintained in the vertical position. When one of the clamps is shiitable alon the bar, cards of 'diflerent widths can be led in one and the same box.
By thecarrier and the clam s the cards are maintained spaced, the one 'rom the other, at a distance which is sufiicient to make visible a narrow area of the upper edge of each card and the signs or marks on this area. In the accompanying drawings: Fig. 1 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view through a card file and carrier embodyin the invention.
ig. 2 is a vertical transverse sectional view on an enlarged scale.
Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of one form of carrier strip.
Fig. 4. is a plan view of the strip shown in Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 3 illustratin a modified form of strip. 5 ig. 6 is a view similar to Fig. 4 illustrating the strip shown in Fig. 5.
ig. 7 is a vertical sectional view on the lines AB of Fig. 3 looking in the direction indicated by the arrow.
The card-carrier consists of a narrow strip a of metal, celluloid, cardboard or the like. Near each end of the carrier a a slot e extends from the lower edge upwards, said slots being designed to be placed on the vert1cal 4s flan es of uide-bars ion the top-edge of the le-box c (Figs. 1 and 2).
In the upper end of each slot e a small lug g is provided which is bent to extend outwardly at a slightly inclined angle to the to plane of the strip to serve as a bearing element and to ensure a uniform inclined position of all of the cards 11 (Fig. 1, left-hand portion).
On each carrier near the ends thereof two clamps b, b are fixed, one facing the other, and deslgned to hold the card at its side edges ust above its transverse center.
'When cards of different width have to be filed, the clamp b (Fig. 5) is shiftably adjusted on the carrier (1 to hold a less wide card d as shown in Fig. 6. I
As the card is connected with the carrier by clamps, carriers are required only for the cards actually to be filed, the cards which are no longer used being separated from their carriers.
The visibility of the upper edge of the cards can be increased if necessary by relatively tilting ad'acent ones of the cards, as shown at the rig t in Fig. 1, so that it is not necessary to remove the card-carriers from the box '30 to read the signs on the upper portions of the cards.
'Difierently coloured lines are used for indicatingto a file clerk, familiar with the significance of the colors,'the essential contents 7 of a card by a glance at the card-edge, it being the practice in the useof the card file, to provide, 11 on the upper edge portion of the card 01, di erent colored lines adapted to register with correspondingly colored lines on so other ones of the cards so that a file clerk may readily find the card relating to a particular matter, red lines, upon the cards for example, indicating married people, blue lines indieating bachelors, green lines indicating mechamcal laborers, etc., so that cards marked in this manner can be easily found with the aid of a leading card D shown in Fig. 2.
1. A card-carrier for card-files, comprising in combination with a file-box having a guidebar with a vertical flange on the top-edge of each long side-wall, narrow card carrier bars havin each near each end a slot upwardly exten ing from the lower edge designed to be placed on the flange of the corresponding ids-bar, means located within said slots fir causing said card carrier, bars to tilt under the influence of gravity, a clamp fixed on one of the surfaces of each carrier bar, 0"
the surfaces of each carrier bar, and a second clamp mounted on each carrier bar in spaced relation.to and so that it faces said first-mentioned clamp.
In testimony whereof I atfix m si ature.-
HANS HE SC EL.
