Definitions
- the present invention aims to reduce the above drawbacks and also provide other advantages.
- a blank for a folder including a front wall spaced from a rear wall by a pair of side walls and a bottom wall, the blank being formed from a single sheet of material which is cut and provided with fold lines to define a first wall panel connected to a second wall panel by an intermediate bottom wall panel, the first and second wall panels in the erected folder defining either the front and rear walls or the rear and front walls of the folder respectively, a pair of side wall panels foldably connected to opposite sides of the second wall panel, and an attachment panel foldably connected to each side wall panel, each attachment panel in the erected folder residing in face to face contact with the first wall panel and being connected thereto by cooperable latch means, the co-operable latch means for connecting each attachment panel to the first wall panel comprising at least one tongue engageable with a co-operating tongue accommodating opening, characterised in that in the erected folder the first wall panel overlies each attachment panel to leave the upper portions thereof exposed so that the front wall of the folder is defined by the first wall panel and the exposed
- the flap 22 is provided with one part of a catch 28 and the front wall 12 is provided with a co-operating part of the catch 28 so that the top wall 20 and flap 22 may be moved to close the mouth 24 and be releasably retained in that position.
- the catch 28 may be of any conventional construction, but is preferably of a type that can be readily attached manually. If desired more than one catch 28 may be provided.
- the blank 3 for forming the folder of Figure 1 is shown in Figure 2 and is conveniently formed in a single operation from a suitable sheet material.
- suitable sheet materials include plastics sheet such as polypropylene of say a thickness between 0.5mm to 1.5mm or card which is laminated with a plastics film on one or both sides of the card.
- the blank is cut and is provided with various fold lines FL to define the following, a rear wall forming panel 40, a pair of side wall forming panels 42,43 respectively, a bottom wall forming panel 46, a main front wall forming panel 48, a top wall forming panel 50, a closure flap forming panel 52, sidewall attachment panels 53,54 a pair of co-operating latch formations 56,57 and reinforcement tabs 58.
- the tabs 65 are then introduced through the tab receiving opening in the underlying attachment panel 53,54 respectively to achieve a folder as illustrated in Figure 1.
- latch formations 56,57 are biased outwardly and so urge the latch formations 56,57 into engagement to thereby maintain the folder in its erected condition.
- the latch formations 56,57 may be in the form of a simple tab or tongue and accommodating slit, the tab and slit not requiring additional formations for restraining removal of the tab from the slit. Accordingly engagement of a tab into a co-operating slit is easily achieved.
- each side wall and associated attachment panel for each side wall may be attached to the front panel 48.
- the reinforcement tabs 58 serve to restrain collapse of the folder at the bottom corners thereof.
- the tabs 58 may be extended in length as illustrated in broken lines in Figure 2 so that in the erected folder the terminal end portions 58 a of the tabs 58 overlap one another.
- the overlapping end portions 58 a are provided with co-operating latch means, in the form of slits 58 b , to restrain longitudinal separation of the tabs 58.
- the tabs not only serve to provide reinforvement for the bottom wall 46 but also act to restrain outward movement of the sidewalls 42, 43 at the bottom region thereof.
- top wall forming panel 50 may be adapted, for instance by the provision of suitable apertures, for the attachment of a carrying handle.
