Abstract
A combined binder and suspended file assembly has an elongated spine defining an elongated triangular channel with two substantially planar elongated members integrally formed in a hinged relationship to the edges of the channel. The binder and file assembly further includes pins and mating securing recesses wherein the pins are integrally formed on one of the elongated planar members, and the recesses are formed in the opposite planar member, such that the pins are inserted through holes in the sheets of paper to bind the paper. The binder and file assembly is suspended from a two rail suspension filing system by two retractable hooks, each of the hooks slidably engaged to one of the ends of the spine member and further wherein the hooks and spine member include interfitting recesses and ridges so as to enable the hooks to lock in a retracted position and in an extended position. The binder and file assembly also includes a recess on the outer surface of the spine for receiving a label, which is angled in a direction for easy viewing when the assembly is stored in a suspended filing system.
