Abstract

A loose-leaf binder has a paper punch which is actuated by the opening of the binder rings. The arms of the rings are attached to two hinge plates which pivot as the arms are opened and closed. Male and female punch die members on the underside of the hinge plates are brought together when the binder rings are opened, to punch a sheet of loose-leaf paper.
