ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a holder for flip boards and/or flip pockets and flip sheaths which are provided in the region of the upper and lower end of one of their edges with swivel bearings for pins arranged in each case in a row at the upper and lower edge of the holder.
Holders of the above type are widely used, inter alia, in offices, laboratories, workshops and supermarkets. They are easy to manipulate and permit the user rapid access to information contained in subject indexes, lists, standard sheets, price lists and similar documents. In order to be able to take account of different spatial features, the holders are regularly constructed such that they can be fastened both on walls and on holding columns. Holders are known in the case of which use is made for both abovementioned types of fastening of screws which are screwed either as wood screws into wall plugs, or as threaded screws into threaded bores of holding columns. The known holders are incapable of providing full satisfaction to the extent that when used in connection with holding columns they do not permit a change in position of the holder with respect to the column.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is the object of the invention to provide a holder which with the aid of easily exchangeable accessories permits both the angular position of the holder to be set with respect to the longitudinal axis of a holding column, and the height of the holder to be set on the holding column, and which moreover is suitable in a known way for wall fastening. This object is achieved in the case of a holder of the generic type considered by virtue of the fact that the latter has a basic body with clamping jaws which are suitable for mounting a roller-shaped insert which can swivel about an axis running transverse to the longitudinal axis of the pins and is provided with a transverse bore for a holding column.
The holder according to the invention offers the advantage that, in conjunction with accessories formed by roller-shaped inserts, it can be more effectively adapted than known holders to spatial and application-specific features. The use of clamping jaws for holding the inserts permits not only rapid and convenient attachment as well as exchange of said inserts, but also, in the case of the use of the holder in conjunction with holding columns, permits the height and/or angular position of the holder with respect to the holding columns to be set in a fashion adapted to the respective situation.
