Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of adding a labelled tab to a folder edge of a file of a file system and to a file with such add-on tab.
  • Cunningham Canadian Patent 934,261 discloses an add-on tab for a file folder, however, with that arrangement individual tabs are applied to the folder edge. In a situation where a plurality of labels are required, individual tabs are applied and thus permit relative movement between the tabs resulting in the individual tabs being caught and damaged or torn from the folder edge.
  • the tabs as produced each have the same subject matter thereon so that different rolls of such tabs are required to provide the necessary different types of indicia in forming a new code for a file folder.
  • the add-on tab and method for applying such add-on tab provides an extension for a file which carries a plurality of labels unique to that file for identifying same, where such extension acts in a manner equivalent to an integral extension of the file.
  • the method, according to this invention, for adding a reinforced labelled tab to a file edge of a file system comprises applying a plurality of labels to a carrier web to designate at least in part a code peculiar to such file of the file system.
  • the carrier web has a pressure sensitive adhesive backing covered by a removable protective strip.
  • a transparent reinforcing film is bonded to the carrier web and over the labels to reinforce the labelled carrier web.
  • the so-formed carrier web is used to add a tab extension member of a length equal to the length of the labelled carrier web along a file edge.
  • the extension member is approximately the same thickness as the file edge.
  • the carrier web is of a width more than twice the width of the extension member to overlap thereby the spaced sides along file edge.
  • the reinforcing film is of sufficient width to overlap the sides and is equal to or less than the width of the carrier web.
  • the protective strip is removed from the carrier web and applied to both of the file flap sides with the extension members secured between folded opposing adhesive portions of the carrier web. An edge of the extension member is held against the file edge to provide on such file of a file system a unique unitary labelled tab for the particular file.
  • a series of discrete visually readable labels are affixed to the carrier web to designate at least.in part the code of a particular file of a file system.
  • a continuous length of reinforcing, transparent film is bonded to the carrier web and over the labels and is equal to or less than the width of the carrier web.
  • the carrier web is of a predetermined length approximately equal to the length of and a predetermined width greater than twice the width of a tab extension member to be connected to the file edge by the carrier web, in accordance with the method.
  • the predetermined length of the carrier web is approximately equal to the length of selected file edge to which a tab extension member is to be connected to provide an extension for the file which simulates the strength and flexibility properties of a similar file having an integral tab extension.
  • a file having such labelled add-on tab comprises a tab extension member of a thickness comparable to that of file edge and having parallel spaced-apart longitudinally extending edges.
  • One of the extension member edges is secured adjacent the selected file edge by a folded carrier web of a length approximating that of the extension member.
  • the carrier web is bonded to a first side of the file along the selected edge and bonded to both sides of the extension member with the carrier web extending around the free edge of the extension member and bonded to the second side of the file to secure the extension member edge adjacent the selected file edge.
  • a series of discrete labels have been affixed to the carrier web to designate at least in part the particular code for the file and a transparent reinforcing film is bonded to the carrier web along its length and approximating its width and over the labels to reinforce the labelled carrier web to provide this unitary add-on labelled tab for the file.
  • Figure 1 shows a file 10 of a filing system.
  • the file is in the form of a file folder having opposing flaps.
  • Such file folders may have expandable portions at the hinge area for the flaps.
  • Another type of file is a pocket expansion file which has expandable portions along both sides and bottom of the pocket.
  • the pocket expansion file may be provided with a top flap to close the pocket.
  • the add-on tab generally designated 12 according to this invention may be used.
  • the tab consists of a tab extension member 14 and a carrier 16 which is folded in the manner shown and has had previously applied thereto a plurality of labels 18 which may be the same or different. Although not shown, the carrier web 16 and labels 18 are covered by a reinforcing high tensile strength film. Figuratively the application of the add on tab 12 to the folder 10 is demonstrated by the arrows 20 and 22. An edge 24 of the tab extension member is placed against or abuts a file folder edge 26. The carrier web 16 has provided on its back face 28 a pressure sensitive adhesive. The tab extension 14 is placed against the folder edge 26 where the rear edge 30 of the tab extension fits against the inside of the creased or folded area generally designated at 32 of the labelled carrier web.
  • the carrier web 16 is of sufficient width so as to overlap the sides 34 and 36 along the folder edge 26 such that when the carrier web 16 is affixed to the folder sides 34 and 36, the tab extension member 14 is held against the edge 26 of the folder 10.
  • This arrangement provides a unitary extension tab member, which forms an extension for the folder flap having substantially the same structural characteristics as an integral tab extension for the same folder flap would have.
  • the connection is such to bend the folder flap as well and thereby avoid simply hinging the add-on tab at its point of connection to folder flap edge, which would weaken the add-on tab connection and could render useless the folder with add-on tab.
  • folder 10 of Figure 1 is only representative and that other shapes and sizes of folders may be used, such as folders which are in the form of large envelopes or folders having three folder flap portions.
  • the folder 10 as shown is of the more conventional type having flap portions 38 and 40 wherein this embodiment the tab extension 12 is added to the rear flap 38 so as to position machine readable code to be discussed hereafter, on the rear of the folder to facilitate machine reading of the code for the folder 10.
  • a template of the type shown in Figure 2 may be used.
  • the template generally designated 42 functions in a manner similar to that disclosed in Pfeffer, United States patent application S.N. 205,168 filed November 12, 1980 and in Canadian Patent application S.N. 367,396-1 filed December 23, 1980 and entitled "Label Applying Template”.
  • the folder 10 is positioned on the template and is located relative to a label guide application device 44 by pegs 46 located on the board portion 48 of the template.
  • the label application guide 44 includes a first step 50 which is at an elevation above the upper surface 52 of the board equal to the approximate combined thickness of the file folder flaps 38 and 40 of the folder 10.
  • the tab extension member 14 Positioned in the raised portion 50, is the tab extension member 14 where its width as indicated by arrow 54 is equal to the width of the tab extension member 14 so as to place edge 24 against the folder edge 26 so presented.
  • a second ledge 56 is provided above the first ledge 54 where it is elevated above the first ledge 50 by a thickness slightly greater than the thickness of the tab extension member 14 as will be more fully discussed with regard to Figure 6.
  • the ledge 56 is made of a material to which the adhesive on the back 28 of the carrier web 16 will adhere, although it may be peeled from that surface 56 once the carrier web 16 is pressed onto the side 36 of the folder 10 across the tab extension member 14 to provide an assembly such as that shown in Figure 7.
  • FIG. 3 there is schematically shown a row 58 of carrier web stock where the carrier web 16 as shown in Figure 4 is made up of web stock 60 with a protective strip 62 to protect the pressure sensitive adhesive on the underside 28 of the web stock 60.
  • the carrier web is unrolled from roll 58 and is moved in the direction of arrow 64 to be eventually rerolled into roll 66 which is made up of labelled carrier web having a reinforcing film bonded to the carrier web and over the labels.
  • the roll 66 may be driven in the direction of arrow 68 so as to pull the carrier stock web 16 through a labelling machine schematically shown at 70.
  • the labeller machine may be of the type disclosed in Barber et al, United States Patent 4,183,779. As disclosed in this patent, the labeller is controlled so as to apply to a moving web a predetermined sequential series of labels where such series may be applied to the web in spaced apart groupings. As shown there are three different series of three labels in each group at 72, 74 and 76. It is understood that any number of labels may be applied to the carrier web for each series, such as five or seven labels per series in the manner shown in Figure 1. Each label series is different to designate a particular code for each file of the file system to which the add-on tab is to be applied. The series of labels 72, 74 and 76 are spaced apart by the spaces 78. The labeller 70 may be programmed such that the space between each series of labels is consistent to facilitate the mechanical application of the labelled reinforced web to folders of a file system where the labelled reinforced carrier web stock is unrolled from roll 66.
  • a reinforcing film is applied to the labelled surface of the carrier web 16.
  • This film may be of the high tensile strength type, such as, a type of film sold under the trade mark "MYLAR” by DuPont and consists of polyethylene terephthalate.
  • Such film may also be obtained from several other sources of supply such as "Celanar” (trademark) from Celanese, "Meliex” (trademark) from ICI Americas, "Terphane” (trademark) from Rhodia, "Scotchpar” (trademark) from 3M and "Sheldahl” (trademark) from Sheldahl.
  • Such film of substantially thinner construction than the carrier web 16 when applied to the carrier web unexpectedly increases the strength of the carrier web such that when used in securing a tab extension to a folder edge provides a tab extension which is quite rugged and has approximately the same strength characteristics of a comparable tab extension which is integral with a file folder flap.
  • such reinforcing film 80 is applied to the labelled surface of the carrier web portion 60.
  • a roll 82 of such film may be payed out and pressed against the carrier web surface by an application roller 84 which effects a bonding of the film 80 to the carrier web surface and over the applied labels because the underside of the film 18 has a pressure sensitive adhesive.
  • labels 18 are positioned on the carrier web 16.
  • the carrier web 16 has applied to its surface a plurality of labels where the code of the series of labels applied may be different from the next series as determined by the programme for the labeller 70.
  • the codes for all the files may be programmed into the labeller such that each series 72, 74, 76 etc. of labels reflects the particular code for each file to which the respective tab is to be applied to thereby distinguish that file from all other files in the system.
  • the labels 18 are of a width which is greater than one half the width of the carrier web 16 yet less than the entire width of the web.
  • the label 18 according to this embodiment has two identical indicia provided thereon such as shown in Figure 4.
  • There are two identical indicium namely the numeral "4" and designated 86, which are spaced apart from one another and lie in a colour field designated 88 where the colour of that field is representative of the particular indicium "4".
  • a machine readable code 90 is provided and as shown, the machine readable code is the well known form of "bar code”.
  • Such type of label may be the same as that disclosed in the Barber et al, United States Patent 4,204,639 which is used to provide a colour coded group of files where the colour coded indicia code is unique to each file and, in addition, the machine readable code on each label when applied to the carrier web and subsequently secured to a file folder provides a system whereby the code for each file may be machine read to facilitate computerized file room control of the file system.
  • Such cut portion of carrier web may be trimmed so as to match the length of the tab extension member 14 or conversely the tab extension member 14 may be trimmed to the severed or cut length of the carrier web 16 of Figure 2.
  • This method therefore, provides an add-on tab having a plurality of labels which designate at least in part the code of a particular file of the file system.
  • the labelled tab in consisting of a labelled carrier web, permits the making of an add-on tab which presents all labels designating the file folder code on a unitary structure. This avoids the problems of prior art devices where an individual tab for each file code indicium is required resulting in the applied tabs moving one relative to the other and increasing the chances of destroying or damaging such file add-on coded tabs.
  • the length of the add-on tab is approximately equal to the length dimension of folder flap edge 26.
  • the bending forces are distributed along the length of folder flap edge to lessen pressure points on the add-on tab connection and reduce ' thereby chances of damaging the connection.
  • the width of carrier web 16 having the labels applied thereto with the reinforcing film 80 bonded to the upper face thereof may be positioned over top of the label guide application device 44 of the template 42.
  • the lower edge 100 of the folder abuts edge 102 of the label applicator guide 44 to properly position the edge of folder 10 so that when the tab extension member 14 is placed on ledge 50, its edge 24 abuts or is adjacent edge 26 of folder 10.
  • This is determined ty the width 54 of the shelf 50 which is approximately the same as the width of the tab extension member 14.
  • the shelf 56 is elevated above shelf 50 by a height which is slightly greater than the thickness of the tab extension member 14 to allow some tolerance to facilitate location and temporarily sticking of the carrier web 16 with its pressure sensitive adhesive backing 28 to the shelf 56.
  • the shelf 56 may be formed of a material which releases the adhesive backing of the carrier web 16. Such material may be preferably "Teflon" (trademark).
  • Teflon trademark
  • the sequence in adding the components of the add-on tab onto the label template 42 can be altered.
  • the folder 10 may be positioned on the template against guide pegs 46 and against edge 102 of the label guide 44 and then the tab extension member 14 positioned on shelf 50.
  • the carrier web 16 may be lowered in the direction of arrow 104 and pressed against face 56 where its edge 106 abuts edge 108 of the label guide so as to perfectly align the carrier web as labelled along the outer edge 30 of the extension member 14.
  • the distance or width 110 of shelf 56 may vary depending upon the configuration for the add-on tab. According to this embodiment the width 110 is approximately one half the width of the carrier web 16. With edge 106 positioned, the carrier web is pressed onto shelf 56 and then pressed onto the back surface 36 of the folder 10 and across the tab extension member 14 to hold or locate the extension member edge 24 against edge 26 of the folder 10.
  • the folder 10 may be removed from the template to provide an arrangement shown in Figure 7 where the rear flap 38 of the folder 10 has one half of the carrier web 16 secured to rear face 36 and across face of extension member 14.
  • the overall width of the carrier web is such to be greater than twice the width of the tab extension member 14 so as to overlap the side 36 and subsequently the inner side 34 of the flap 38 to the extent shown. This provides for a secure connection of the add-on tab to the folder edge.
  • the folder 10 has the edge 24 of the tab extension member 14 held adjacent and in this instance abutting the edge 26 of the folder 10 where the carrier web as reinforced and having labels thereon is folded around and overlaps and is bonded to the faces 34 and 36 of the flap 38.
  • the additional thickness added to the folder edge is that of a thickness of the carrier web and the reinforcing film. It should be emphasized that in Figure 8 the thickness has been enlarged for purposes of illustration however the thickness of the reinforcing film may be in the range of .5 mils up to 2 mils and the carrier web may be in the range of 3 mils up to 5 mils.
  • the thickness of the folder edge in using such an add-on tab.
  • the selection of the material for the tab extension member 14 may be the same as the material in the folder flap 38 so that the tab extension member 14 is of approximately the same thickness as the folder flap 38.
  • the positioning of the labels 18 on the carrier web 16 is such that the colour field between the indicia 86 of each label 18 is approximately centered on the fold line for the carrier web as shown in dot at 116.
  • the colour field of each label of the particular file folder tab is presented along the outer edge at 118 as shown in Figure 8 for each add-on tab so as to provide a band of colours peculiar to each file folder.
  • the web 16 may be affixed to shelf 56 with its edge 106 abutting guide edge 108.
  • the tab extension member 54 may then be placed under the carrier web 16 because the shelf 56 is elevated above shelf 50 by a height greater than the thickness of the extension member 14.
  • the file folder 10 may be inserted under the carrier web 16 with its lower edge 100 abutting edge 102 of the guide.
  • This procedure enables positioning of the carrier web 16 on the label guide without ccncern for touching of the adhesive backing 28 of the carrier web against either the tab extension member 14 or the back face 36 of folder flap 38 while positioning the label.
  • This is particularly advantageous in situatiors where the adhesive backing 28 has a very powerful adhesive attraction to the paper of the tab extension member and folder, so that a slight touching of the -adhesive backing to the folder or tab extension member during a positioning of the label on the shelf 56 would result in a spoiled label, after removing the carrier web for repositioning on the shelf 56.
  • an expansion pocket file 120 is shown where an add-on tab according to this invention is applied thereto.
  • the pocket file has expandable portions, such as at 122, along both sides and bottom to provide an open top 124.
  • the expandable portions interconnect pocket opposing flaps 126.
  • the add-on tab 128 is applied to the rear edge 130 of the file.
  • the expandable portion 122 has a plurality of gussets 132 where the carrier web 134 of the add-on label arrangement is applied to the front and rear faces of flap 126 along edge 130.
  • the carrier web is partially severed at 136 to permit gusset 132 adjacent edge 130 to move outwardly from flap 126 when the file is expanded.
  • the add-on tab is of the same construction as that shown in Figure 1, where the colour coded labels 138 are affixed to the carrier web and covered by the reinforcing "Mylar" film. As shown in the cut-away area of the label arrangement, the tab extension member 140, which is of approximately the same thickness as edge 130, is secured adjacent the edge by carrier web 134 of the add-on tab construction.
  • the flexibility of this coded-on tab is exemplified in its use on both file folders and pocket expansion files.
  • the method according to this invention provides an add-on tab which .is superior in structural properties to known add-on tabs in view of its stiffer yet pliable characteristics.
  • An aspect of the invention which contributes strength to the add-on tab is the addition of the "Mylar” film to the labelled surface of the carrier.
  • Mylar is a thin film and may be as thin as .5 mils.
  • the "Mylar” film width is no greater than the width of the carrier and to facilitate application of the "Mylar” film to the carrier web, it may be slightly less than the width of the carrier.web to accommodate some misalignment in application of "Mylar” film to the labelled carrier web.
  • the method also provides for the preparation of individual unique colour coded labelled add-on tabs which are machine readable for respective folders in a coded file system by using labels of the Barber et al United States Patent 4,204,639.
