Definitions
- This invention relates to business form assemblies, and more particularly, to such assemblies providing mailer assemblies.
- the invention has particular reference to mailer assemblies capable of being processed in a non-impact printer and subsequently processed including being sealed to be suitable for mailing.
- British Specification No. 1564423 describes an assembly comprising a continuous web with fold lines and adhesive portions to enable the web to be folded and secured together to form an envelope assembly.

Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to business form assemblies, and more particularly, to such assemblies providing mailer assemblies.
- The invention has particular reference to mailer assemblies capable of being processed in a non-impact printer and subsequently processed including being sealed to be suitable for mailing.
- U.S. Specification No. 3411699, which document forms the basis of the precharacterising portion of the independent claims, describes a multiple use continuous envelope assembly including a cover sheet and a message sheet connected together and having end and marginal edges marginal lines of perforations and end lines of perforations as well as lines of adhesive which enable the message sheet and cover sheet to be formed into individual envelope assemblies.
- In French Specification No. 1502067 there is described a document assembly comprising a letter card assembly closed by being glued together on four sides but having lines of perforations to enable information printed on the inside of the assembly to be ascertained.
- British Specification No. 1564423 describes an assembly comprising a continuous web with fold lines and adhesive portions to enable the web to be folded and secured together to form an envelope assembly.
- Australian Specification No. 27554/77 describes a combined document and envelope assembly comprising a document flap and a cover flap so that the cover flap may be folded over the document flap and sealed thereto to provide an envelope.
- British Specification No. 809953 describes a continuous web assembly having two supers- paced web portions with perforations to enable the margins to be removed to reveal a returnable printed document and which identifies the recipients.
- Assemblies of the kind specified are not suitable for passing through non impact printers (usually of the laser imaging type) which generate sufficient heat to soften the heat softenable adhesive of the assemblies. If assemblies having such heat softenable adhesive were to be passed through such a printer the assembly would be likely to stick to the internal rollers of the printer and cause disruption.
- The applicants have devised an assembly which overcomes this problem and which utilizes a separate message web and cover web in which the message web bears no adhesive and is capable of being fed through a non impact printer whereas the cover web bears the adhesive for securing the two webs when collated together and heat sealed.
- An object of this invention is to provide an improved business form assembly of at least two webs for collation and sealing into mailer assemblies.
- In a principal aspect, the invention refers to an improved business form assembly comprising a message web having a message sheet and a cover web having a cover sheet. The message sheet has a longitudinal dimension between end edges along a longitudinal axis and a transverse dimension between marginal edges along a transverse axis. Marginal lines of perforations extend along the marginal edges fully between the end edges. Transverse end lines of perforations extend along the end edges only between the marginal lines of perforations. The message cover sheet has a longitudinal dimension between cover sheet end edges equal to the longitudinal dimension of the message sheet and a transverse dimension between cover sheet marginal edges equal to the transverse dimension of the message sheet. The cover sheet is superimposed upon the message sheet and has marginal lines of adhesive along the cover sheet marginal edges. These adhesive lines extend fufly between the cover sheet end edges and are nearer the cover sheet marginal edges than the message sheet marginal perforation lines are to the message sheet marginal edges. Transverse, end lines of adhesive are along the cover sheet end edges, extending fully between the cover sheet marginal lines of adhesive and being nearer the cover sheet end edges than the message sheet end perforation lines are to the message sheet end edges. Preferably, cover sheet marginal and transverse, end lines of perforations are superimposed on the message sheet marginal and transverse, end lines of perforations. The marginal and end lines of adhesive adhere the cover sheet to the message sheet.
- Other objects, advantages and features are part of the detailed description of the preferred embodiment. The detailed description follows a brief description of the drawing.
- The preferred embodiment a mailer business form assembly in accordance with the present invention will be described by way of example in relation to the accompanying drawing, in which:
- Fig. 1 is a plan view of a preferred mailer assembly invention, with a corner of a cover sheet turned back to reveal detail; and
- Fig. 2 is a second plan view of the mailer assembly of Fig. 1, with the cover sheet and message sheet shortened to reveal detail.
- Referring to Figs. 1-2, the preferred embodiment of the invention is a business form assembly 4 comprising a message web 1, a
cover web 2 and aback web 3. Thewebs margin perforation lines 40; and superimposed,marginal feed strips 50. Thewebs adjacent perforation lines 40. Each mailer comprises amessage sheet 5, atop cover sheet 6 and abottom cover sheet 7. As will be described, when the assembly 4 is completed, thesheets - The
message sheet 5 is rectangular. It has a longitudinal dimension between a straightupper end edge 8 and a straight and parallel lower end edge 9. It has a transverse dimension between straight, parallel,marginal edges sheet 5 has (and also thesheets - A first message sheet marginal line of
perforations 12 extends along and spaced from the first message sheetmarginal edge 10. A second message sheet marginal line ofperforations 13 extends along and spaced from the second message sheetmarginal edge 11. Thelines sheet end edges 8, 9. Themarginal edge 10 andline 12 define a first longitudinally extending margin 14 of thesheet 5. Theedge 11 andline 13 define a second longitudinally extending margin 15. - A first, transverse end line of
perforations 16 extends along but spaced from theend edge 8. A second, transverse end line ofperforations 17 extends along but spaced from the end edge 9. Thelines marginal perforation lines edges 8, 9 andlines end strips sheet 5. Preferably,end strips - The
lines message area 23. Thetop cover sheet 6 has a longitudinal dimension between top coversheet end edges message sheet 5 between itsedge ends 8, 9. Thetop cover sheet 6 also has a transverse dimension between top cover sheetmarginal edges message sheet 5 between itsmarginal edges - Marginal lines of
perforations marginal edges lines marginal strips sheet 6, which have a transverse width less than the width of the message sheet margins 14, 15. - A first, transverse end line of perforation 16' extends along and spaced from the
end edge 25. A second, transverse line of perforations 17' extends along and spaced from theend edge 26. The lines 16', 17' extend only between the marginal lines ofperforations edges sheet 6. - Within the
marginal strips sheet 6 has marginal lines ofadhesive adhesive lines sheet end edges end edges adhesive lines adhesive lines sheet 6. As most preferred, the adhesive lines 33-36 are a heat sealable adhesive. When heated, with thesheets sheet 6 superimposed on thesheet 5, theadhesive adheres sheet 6 tosheet 5, outward of theperforation lines sheet 5 and in the margins 14, 15 andend strips perforation lines end strips - The
sheets sheet 7. If used without thesheet 7, the assembly forms a message unit. Each message unit remains sealed, and may be opened by removal of the top cover sheetmarginal strip 31, with the message sheet margin 14, along the perforation lines 29, 12. Since theperforation line 29 is offset from theline 12, an edge is created that can be manually grasped. A message area, such as 23, may then be separated from its message unit, along other perforation lines. As most preferred, all thetransverse perforation lines edge 10, and is progressively reduced towardedge 11. These progressive perforations facilitate separation of the message areas. - When the assembly has a back cover sheet, the preferred
back cover sheet 7 has longitudinal and transverse dimensions equal to those of thecover sheet 6. Thesheet 7 also has a pattern of adhesive lines identical to that ofsheet 6, and the same reference numbers are used to identify the adhesive lines onsheet 7 as are used onsheet 6. Thesheet 7 may be a combined second message and bottom cover sheet, and may be a reversed, or turned over, duplicate ofsheet 6, without the glassine window. - The preferred embodiment of the invention is now described.
- The assembly may be fed into a collating and sealing machine with messages preprinted on the message areas. The sheets may be automatically collated, the message unit severed and sealed together. If preferred, the message units may be self-contained envelopes with transparent- covered windows, such as
windows 37, shown onsheet 6. - By this invention we are able to provide an improved business form assembly which is capable of being printed upon by a non impact printer and yet is capable of having the webs thereof (or the sheets when divided into form lengths) sealed together by a heat sealing operation. We are also able to provide a customer with a large volume order of cover sheets and smaller volumes of different message sheets which different message sheets may be used for different purposes and may be put to many different uses.
- The preferred embodiment may be varied, without departing from the invention. Therefore, to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter regarded as invention, the following claims conclude this specification.
