Definitions
- This invention relates to a duster-polisher made of plastic film which is suitable for dusting clothes and the like and also for polishing shoes, bags, furnitures and others.
- a duster made of plastic film by overlapping two rectangular sheets thereof, and connecting each opposing side to form a folded cylinder, or further sealing one of the remaining open sides to form a pocket, one face thereof being coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive so as to afford a dust catching ability, is known for some time.
- the adhesive layer is covered with a protector film with an adhesion reducing layer interposed therebetween to keep the adhesive face clean.
- the cylinder part, or in other words, the pocket with or without bottom functions as a hand pocket to hold the gadget.
- one face of the pocket is made soft and rough, preferably spongy, instead of coating with the adhesive, it can serve as a handy polisher.
- US-A-3329 985 describes a lint removing mit having two delaminable assemblies each including inner and outer backing sheets and a tacky sheet therebetween having adhesive on both sides, the two assemblies being releasably connected to each other and the outer backing sheets being removable first to expose one side of each tacky sheet and when these are no longer tacky after use the assemblies are separated and reassembled so that the inner backing sheets are disposed outwardly of the mit and are adapted to be peeled off the tacky sheets to expose their tacky opposite sides.
- US-A-3806 260 discloses a disposable mit for applying polishing material or the like having a first sheet of buffing material which can be attached by glue or stitching to a second sheet of material to which the opposite side is attached, for example, by gluing, a multiplicity of microcapsules containing a high quality lanolinized wax or shoe shine material.
- a third sheet of material is removably attached to the side of the second sheet opposite the side to which the first sheet is glued so as to form a closed pocket which protects the shoe shine material.
- a duster-polisher having both functions of dusting and polishing and eliminating protector film by using the back face of the polisher therefor, is handy and economical. Outer faces thereof may be used as a printing space for advertisement or other purposes. But no such gadget has ever been proposed.
- an object of this invention is to provide a handy duster-polisher made of plastic film having a face coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive for dusting and a soft and rough face for polishing.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a less expensive duster-polisher of throwaway nature which has convenient printing spaces at the outer faces thereof for advertisement or other commercial purposes.
- a duster-polisher made of plastic film which comprises a duster part, the duster part being substantially two sheets of plastic film overlapped and connected at each opposing side such that a pocket is formed, one outer face of said pocket being coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive to define an adhesive layer (4), characterised in that it comprises a polisher part having the size of the duster part consisting of at least, one sheet of plastics film (6) one face of which is soft and rough to define a polishing face, the other face of the polisher part is attached to the adhesive layer (4) with an adhesion reducing layer (5) interposed therebetween which allows the polisher part (6) to be removed thus allowing the duster part to be used.
- Figure 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of this invention which has a hand pocket 1 with bottom 2.
- This pocket can be made of two rectangular sheets of plastic film overlapped one upon the other, and connected at each pair of the opposing sides 3, 3 and a pair of the remaining sides, by means, for example, of heat sealing.
- a less expensive version may be made by folding extruded thermoplastic film cylinder to form two overlapped sheets connected, cutting laterally at a suitable length and heat sealing at one of the open ends.
- the means for making the pocket does not constrain the invention.
- the upper face of the pocket 1 is coated with a suitable pressure sensitive adhesive, for example, of rubber type, polyacrylate type, or polyvinylether type, to define an adhesive layer 4.
- a suitable pressure sensitive adhesive for example, of rubber type, polyacrylate type, or polyvinylether type
- the lower face of the film 6 is preferably flat and smooth to serve as a protector for the adhesive layer 4, while the upper face thereof is made soft and rough, and preferably spongy, so as to act as a polisher face.
- the film 6 and a pocket 16 which will be mentioned later, have the same functions of protecting the adhesive layer 4 and serving as a polisher, and will be called "polisher" or "polisher part" when convenient.
- the film 6 may preferably be made of so-called non-woven, flocked, or bonded fabrics having the above mentioned characteristics.
- an adhesion reducing layer 5 is provided between the adhesive layer 4 and the film or polisher part 6, to enable easy removal of the polisher part 6 from the adhesive layer 4.
- This special adhesive hardly adheres to the pressure sensitive adhesive, but suitably attaches to the film 6, and may be selected, for instance, from copolymers of higher alkyl acrylate and other acrylic or vinyl compounds or both, some waxes, or certain silicone resins or others.
- the convenient size of the hand pocket 1, accordingly, the size of the duster-polisher of this invention, may be such that the four fingers of a hand except the thumb can loosely fit therein.
- duster-polisher of this invention In order to use the duster-polisher of this invention as a polisher, simply insert the four fingers into the pocket 1 such that the rough face of the polisher faces palmside, and rub or polish the object. On the other hand, in order to use it as a duster, insert the four fingers, as before, into the pocket 1, and remove the polisher part 6 and expose the fresh adhesive layer 4 as depicted in Figure 2, and tap or slowly rub the object therewith. As well known, fresh adhesive face loses dusting ability with elapsed time.
- FIG. 3 Another embodiment of this invention shown in Figure 3 has a bottomless pocket 1. Because the four fingers can go through the pocket, the depth thereof can be made shorter and less expensive.
- FIG. 4 and 5 The further embodiment shown in Figures 4 and 5 is different from the one shown in Figure 1 in the respect that the film 6 therein is taken over by a pocket 16 (as mentioned above, will be called polisher or polisher part according to the context) consisting of two sheets of plastic film of the lower sheet 16a and the upper sheet 16b connected to each other in a similar manner as in pocket 1.
- the lower sheet is flat and smooth and functions as a protecter for the pressure sensitive adhesive layer 4, with the adhesion reducing layer 5 interposed therebetween, and the upper face of the sheet 16b is made soft and rough, and preferably spongy, so as to serve as a polishing face.
- the pocket 16 may be made bottomless to combine with the pocket 1 depicted in Figure 3.
- the embodiments of this type have an advantage in being able to serve as a duster and, at the same time, as a polisher, by separating them at the adhesion reducing layer 5.
- the lowermost face and if desired, the uppermost face thereof can be used as a printing space, wherein instructions of using the gadget, advertizing of any other messages are written.
- duster-polishers of this invention naturally belong to a so-called throwaway article, and may cause tack trouble when thrown away. However, this can be completely avoided by turning the pocket inside out.
- plastic film as used herein and in the claims are intended to include film of plastics such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene, chloride, polyamide, celulose (celophane) and the like for the duster part, whereas for the polisher part, to include further film of non-woven, flocked and bonded fabrics made of plastics.
