Title: Bookbinding machine

Abstract: A bookbinding machine wherein a book comprising a plurality of sheets of paper or the like to be bound together is clamped by a clamping device at a first position and the clamping device with the book is reciprocated between the first position and a second position. In the course of reciprocation adhesive is applied to one edge surface or back of the clamped book. When the clamping device has been returned to the first position after reciprocation, a cover sheet on a supporting plate is applied onto the back of the book by raising the supporting plate, which is then moved away from below the clamping device after application of the cover sheet to the back of the book so that the book may be easily taken out of the machine from below the clamping device by gravitation or otherwise.
