PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bookbinding apparatus which is connected to, for instance, a printer, and can file and bind sheet bundles in large quantities in a short time.SOLUTION: A bookbinding apparatus 10, which inserts ring parts 200a of a comb-shaped ring 200 into binding holes 100a of a sheet bundle and files and binds the sheet bundle, includes a compiling section 40 which arranges the sheet in which the binding holes 100a are formed to make the sheet bundle, a comb-shaped ring feeding section 60 which feeds the comb-shaped ring 200 piece by piece, a binding section 50 which receives the fed comb-shaped ring 200 and inserts the ring parts 200a of the comb-shaped ring 200 into the binding holes 100a of the sheet bundle to bind the sheet bundle. The binding section 50 includes a binding unit 51 which receives the comb-shaped ring 200 fed at a comb-shaped ring receiving position P1, moves to a sheet bundle receiving position P2 of a compiling section 40, and inserts the ring parts 200a of the comb-shaped ring 200 into the binding holes 100a of the sheet bundles in a state where the ring parts 200a of the comb-shaped ring 200 are open, and a transfer unit 52 which allow the binding unit 51 to reciprocate between the comb-shaped ring receiving position P1 and the sheet bundle receiving position P2. |
