8 Claims.
The invention is a `novel and effective composlte wrapper for individually wrapping cigars in such way as to display their identity or place of origin and in such way as to preserve the flavor or bouquet and general smoking qualities of the commodity.
Without reviewing the history of the art it may be remarked that heretofore and before my invention cigars have been individually wrapped in l0 foil, paper, cellophane, natural wood veneers, and
various other sheeted casing materials. A natural wood veneer, such as cedar, has been preferred because the Wood contains resinous matter, oils, and other organic material highly efflcacious in preserving the bouquet and smoking qualities of the tobacco. But natural wood veneer wrappers suffer the disadvantage that they are relatively stiff and friable and tend readily to split and otherwise to disintegrate and so cannot conform themselves to the shape of the cigar but must be carefully lapped about it in loose tubular form, and lacking toughness and tensile strength and the capacity to take ink, they cannot readily be printed uponf" 'Ihe invention is directed to Wrappers or casings of the natural wood veneer type and has for its ultimate purpose and result the provision of a casing which will retain all of the advantages of the natural veneer and eliminate its disadvantages. y
The nature, characteristic features and scope of the invention more readily will be understood from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, forming a part hereof, wherein Figure 1 shows a cigar encased in a wrapping having my improvements.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the new wrapper.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the wrapper with the veneer partly removed to expose the composite structure.
Fig. 4 is a section showing the composite structure.
The illustration, Fig. 1, represents a cigar having ab initio the improved wrapper and finally an external casing of cellophane or the, like. However, the use of the external casing is a matter of expediency or choice and it is shown because it lends a desirable finishing touch and is more or less popular with the majority of the purchasing public. It well might be omitted, for it is a merit of the invention that it obviates the use of extraneous wrappings but admits of them to satisfy the whim or caprice of the public.
In the practice of my invention I encase the cigar directly in a composite wrapper, Fig'. 2, which,y as stated at the outset, possesses vthe desirable properties of natural wood and overcomes its deficiencies and diiliculties. The composite wrapper of my invention may be, and by pref- 60 erence is, embodied in a laminated structure of natural wood veneer 5, as cedar, and paper 6 in adherent relation with the veneer. The veneer is as close to fllm form as is mechanically possible without destroying the grain appearance and the homogeneity of the structure, and the paper is of cobwebby tissue-like textureso that its identity is lost in the composite fabric. And yet, the effect of the reinforcing or overlay is to put the veneer in the classification of paper or similar sheeted fabrics becausethe new wrapper possesses all of the toughness, pliability, and tensile strength of paper, in that it readily lends itself to distortion and shaping and to printing.
As shown in Fig. 3, one surface of the veneer is completely backed, faced, or overlaid with a cellulosic paper of exceeding tissue-like quality in such way as to blend the two elements into a completely homogeneous structure, the iibers of the paper, or equivalent fabric, insinuating themselves into intimate relationship with the natural wood fiber. This intimate and adherent relationship manifestly might be accomplished in several ways but it is a merit of the invention that it is accomplished by hot pressing and without resort to the use of sizes, such as dextrin and the like.
The beneficial effect of hot pressing is to revlvify and excite the natural resins, oils and other organic -matter, inherentlypresent in cedar and similar wood, and thus greatly assist in preserve ing the natural aroma or bouquet of tobacco. It has the further merit that the veneer will take ink or other printing without bleeding What is claimed as new, is-
1. A wrapper for individually packing or encasing cigars, consisting of a llm-like sheet of wood veneer mechanically reinforced whereby it is capable of distortional shaping without manifesting tendency to splitting or other forms of breaking, said sheet containing heat-energizable extractive matter which is eiiicacious in the preservation of cigars.
2. A wrapper for individually packing or encasing cigars, consisting of a composite structure of wood veneer and a reinforcing fabric, said composite structure being of the classification of paper in that it is tough, pliable, has high tensile s treiigtli,l and will take ink, and further'characno of natural wood in free possession of its organic matter, and a nlm of paper in adherent relation therewith, said composite structure being hot pressed for the purpose and with the result of energizing the extractive matter of the wood for preservative purposes and to establish said ad.
herent relationship.
. 5. A wrapper for individually packin -or encasing cigars, comprising a illm of natural wood in free possession of its organic matter and homogeneously surface-bound so that it will takeinl: without bleeding, said film being heat pressed to energize the containedorganic matter.
6. A wrapper for individually packing or encasing cigars, comprising a film of natural wood n on of its organic matter and homogeneously surface-bound so that its will take ink without fbieeding" and otherwise er theA eletta flcation of paper, said surface bound film resulting from 'the application of heat suillcient to 'excite and cause surface ilow of the organic matter.
7. A wrapper for individually packing or encasing cigars, comprising a composite sheeted fabric of natural wood and an element whose identity is lost in the composite structure, the
two elements being adherently and homogeneousiy united by hot pressing for the purpose and with the result of exciting the preserving qualities of the wood.
8. `The method of preserving the bouquet and other desirable qualities of cigars, which consists in individually wrapping them in a sheeted fabric of the classification of paper in that it is susceptible of distortion and .shaping without the hazard of disintegration and of taking printers ink without bleeding, said fabric consisting of a'sheet of natural wood of substantial film-like texture in free possession of its grain structure and organic matter and a reinforcing cellulosic overlay whose identity is lost in the composite structure, the two elements being homogeneously united by `hot pressing to utilize the cementing or bonding qualities of the organic matter and to excite the preservative qualities of the organic matter.
