(under subclass 38) Apparatus specially adapted for applying a fastener in the form of a single elongated rodlike element limited for insertion into a single fastener receiving hole of the sheets(*), signatures(*), or quires(*).
(1) Note. The fasteners of this subclass are restricted such that only one fastener can bind only one hole per fastener so that a multiple hole set of sheets(*), signatures(*), or quires(*) will require multiple fasteners to complete the binding operation.
CROSS-REFERENCE ART COLLECTIONS
The following subclasses are collections of disclosures pertaining to various aspects of the book binding art which do not form appropriate bases for subclasses in the previous classification, i.e., subclasses higher in the schedule. Documents are placed in these subclasses based on their disclosure other than or independent from their claims or claimed disclosure and in no instance do they represent the entire extent of the prior art or disclosure for the specified aspect.
