Definitions

  • the individual parts of the letter or sections of the letter are connected. Individual information for or about the recipient of the letter is contained on one or more of the surface sections of these parts of the letter, e.g. his address, his customer number, a personal title or the like.
  • the different parts of the letter generally serve very different purposes. One or more of the parts of the letter represent the sales letter in the narrower sense of the word. Another part often serves as a reply letter or as an order form. Sometimes there is also a ticket. Other parts of the letter are sometimes designed as a return envelope with which the reply form or order form is to be sent back to the sender of the advertising letter or to another location.
  • trimmings are required for this in the production of the advertising letter.
  • a trimming strip must be cut off from the finished roll along one or more of its edges, which strips there cover all surface sections of the roll lying one above the other.
  • the area for the trimming must be considered beforehand in the carrier web, from which the individual sales letter is created by the folding processes. This area is not available for attaching information.
  • a rectangular carrier web is folded into a wrap using the cross-fold method, with part of its surface sections also being glued to one another by means of strip-shaped adhesive applications.
  • this wrap must be put into a mailing envelope for mailing if it is not closed by means of a seal strip which is attached along one of the trim edges.
  • two cuts may be necessary for the self-mailer and three cuts for the slip-in letters to achieve this separation.
  • the trimming strips represent waste areas which must first be present on the carrier webs and which are subsequently cut off. Since the paper web is already printed with the information from the advertising letter, which is divided into the carrier webs for the individual advertising letters, the trimming area has the consequence that the available area of the printing cylinders cannot be fully utilized and that it is free in the area of the trimming areas Information is. These unused surface areas mean just one Trim area a loss of area of approx. 5% and with several trim areas per carrier web a correspondingly higher area loss. These area losses also occur with regard to paper consumption, which is the same size as the area loss for the printing cylinders.
  • the sheet division i.e. the division of the carrier web into individual surface sections which are separated or to be separated
  • the sheet division is only possible along the edge of the finished folded wrap due to the transverse bleed and therefore the sheet division is largely set to twice the height of the wrap. Only in exceptional cases can a sheet with a different sheet height, namely with a lower sheet height, be created in that a transverse fold location is less than the normal sheet height from the two adjacent transverse fold locations, so that this intermediate transverse fold location is not covered by the trimming and remains undivided.
  • the invention specified in claims 1, 3 and 5 is based on the object of creating an advertising letter in the manner of self-mailers in which, on the one hand, maximum ease of use for the letter recipient and, on the other hand, maximum variety of sheet division and for the letter manufacturer and shipper at the same time there is a minimum of trimming.
  • the invention specified in claims 11 and 17 is based on the object of specifying a method for producing an advertising letter in the manner of insert letters, in which the same advantages as for the self-mailers are achieved.
  • the incision ensures that the surface sections which adjoin the incision in the area between the Tear edge strips are separated from each other by the incision. If the letter recipient later tore off the tear-off edge strips, these areas are immediately isolated. The letter recipient has the greatest possible comfort when handling the different parts of the letter. A trimming is not required for this separation during the production of the letter. Accordingly, a certain surface area does not have to be cut out in the circumferential direction in the case of the printing cylinders. Paper loss is avoided in the paper web. In addition to the isolated surface sections, there are two surface sections that are connected to one another and that are brought to the outside of the roll by certain folding processes so that they can be used as address carriers.
  • these non-separate areas ensure that the sales letter can be sent as a self-mailer at all, ie without a separate envelope.
  • the incision can be made at any point in the longitudinal direction of the carrier web. This gives the letter manufacturer and sender a great deal of freedom to distribute the various parts of the letter over the entire area of the advertising letter and to design the content and graphic of the advertising letter.
  • an envelope flap can be created by an arrow-shaped incision which, together with two adjoining surface sections which are glued to one another at the edge, forms a return envelope which serves for the return of one of the other individual surface sections.
  • a special advertising effect can be achieved through an oblique or wavy incision.
  • the self-mailing advertising letters according to claim 10 it is avoided that in the transverse folds where an incision is present, the different strength and rigidity of the carrier web in the area of the surface sections, on the one hand, and the edge strips, on the other hand, cause warping and crumple points which cause the folding processes could hinder and lead to the unsightly appearance of the sales letter.
  • plug-in advertising letters in which the manufacturing method is designed according to claim 22.
  • the letters for advertising purposes or briefly advertising letters are produced and sent once as so-called self-mailers and once as so-called insert letters.
  • one of the outside pages bears the address of the mail recipient, so that a separate envelope is not necessary.
  • the advertising letter is inserted into a separate envelope, which either has a window or is provided with the address of the letter recipient. According to these differences, the production of the two types of sales letter is different in certain areas.
  • FIGS. 44 to 172 such advertising letters that are sent as insert letters are explained below.
  • the starting material for the advertising letters of both types is an endless paper web on a roll.
  • the paper web has a certain width, which usually includes two outer edge strips with transport holes. This paper web is expediently matched to the largest passage width of a conventional labeling machine, with which the paper web is labeled with the individual characteristics of the individual recipients of the advertising letters.
  • top side and bottom side refer to the starting position of the paper web and the sheets to be separated therefrom for the individual parts of the letter with regard to the subsequent folding and gluing processes.
  • the transport holes are punched on the two outer edge strips in the rotary printing press.
  • the section of the paper web belonging to a specific advertising letter is provided with the individual characteristics of the individual letter recipient.
  • Some of the self-mailers are designed as recipient addresses in accordance with the postal regulations.
  • Other parts of the individual information are used, for example, to process orders from the recipient of the letter from the sender of the advertising letter or as a personal form of address on the part of the letter, which is to be regarded as an advertising letter in the narrower sense of the word.
  • edge strips with the transport holes are either cut off at the beginning or sometimes only later from the finished, inscribed paper web.
  • the paper web is cut in the longitudinal direction into individual sections, each section comprising the parts belonging to a sales letter and bearing the individual characteristics of the recipient of the letter. These individual lengths are referred to as the carrier web. They are processed in the folding and gluing machine to the finished sales letter.
  • FIG. 1 shows a paper web section 1 which still has the two edge strips 2 with the transport holes 3. These edge strips 2 are cut off along the dash-dotted lines 4 in a cutting station, as indicated in FIG. 1a, so that the carrier web 5 remains.
  • the first carrier web 5 for a first embodiment of the advertising letter has a rectangular plan with the two longitudinal edges 6 and 7 and the two transverse edges 8 and 9.
  • the carrier web 5 is formed by five transverse folds, which are briefly referred to as transverse folds 11 ... 15 , divided into six fields.
  • the carrier web 5 also has two longitudinal perforations 16 and 17 which run at a certain distance r from the adjacent longitudinal edge 6 and 7 and which were already attached to the paper web during processing.
  • the longitudinal perforations 16 and 17 delimit two tear-off edge strips 18 and 19. If these tear-off edge strips 18 and 19 are separated from the six fields, the six surface sections A 1... A 6, which are numbered in columns, remain as the usable area of the advertising letter.
  • the five transverse fold points 11 ... 15 theoretically have the same distance from one another, so that the surface sections A 1 ... A 6 are of the same height.
  • certain deviations from the theoretical dimension will occur. However, the deviations are not taken into account in the following.
  • incisions 21 ... 23 are made with a cutting station arranged there. These three incisions run in the transverse direction of the carrier web 5. They extend at least from one longitudinal perforation 16 to the other longitudinal perforation 17. Slight exceedances of the two longitudinal perforations to the outside are permissible. Shortfalls should be avoided.
  • the incision 21 runs at least approximately in the line of alignment of the second transverse fold location 12.
  • the incision 22 extends at least approximately in the alignment line of the transverse fold location 13.
  • the incision 23 extends at least approximately in the alignment line of the cross fold location 15.
  • the surface sections A 2 and A 3 are the surface sections A 3 and A 4 and the surface sections A 5 and A 6 within the two longitudinal perforations 16 and 17 completely separated from each other.
  • the surface sections A 1 and A 2 remain joined together along the transverse fold point 11.
  • the surface sections A 4 and A 5 remain united with one another along the transverse fold point 14.
  • a first adhesive is applied in the area of the surface sections A 4... A 6, specifically in the surface area of the two tear-off edge strips 18 and 19 in the form of a continuous adhesive strip 24 and 25, respectively.
  • the two adhesive strips 24 and 25 extend outward as close as possible to the adjacent longitudinal edge 6 and 7, respectively.
  • Inside the adhesive layers 24 and 25 should not exceed the longitudinal perforations 16 and 17, but should rather keep a distance from them so that the adjacent surface sections remain free of adhesions.
  • the first three fields with the surface sections A 1 ... A 3 are folded over the transverse fold point 13 forward onto the top of the fields with the surface sections A 4 ... A 6 and in the area of the tear-off edge strips 18 and 19 by means of the adhesive strips 24 and 25 glued to them.
  • the top side here (and later in a corresponding manner) is the side of the paper web 5 which faces the viewer in FIG. 2 and which faces the left sheet edge in FIG. 2.
  • the underside of one of the surface sections A 1... A 6 faces the viewer in the subsequent figures, regardless of its position above or below other surface sections, this is indicated by underlining the reference symbol.
  • the carrier web 5 emerges from the folding process indicated in FIG. 3 in the state shown in FIG. 4.
  • a second application of adhesive in the form of an adhesive strip 27 and 28, respectively, is applied to the underside in the area of the two tear-off edge strips 18 and 19. Similar to the adhesive strips 24 and 25, the adhesive strips 27 and 28 extend in the longitudinal direction as close as possible to the transverse fold points 11 and 12 and outwards to the longitudinal edge 6 or 7 and maintain a certain safety distance from the longitudinal perforation 16 or 17.
  • the two surface sections A 1 and A 6 lying one above the other are folded forward about the transverse fold point 11/15 onto the two surface sections A 2 and A 5 likewise lying one above the other and glued to them by means of the adhesive strips 27 and 28.
  • This folding and gluing process is indicated in Fig. 5.
  • the individual surface sections are not shown as a complete guide to the adjacent surface sections, so that the individual surface sections and their mutual assignment can still be distinguished. In reality you have to imagine the different surface sections or section groups firmly pressed together. This also applies to all other corresponding representations of the carrier webs for self-mailers. In any case, the surface sections of the slip-in letters are only loosely adjacent to one another.
  • a third adhesive application is carried out in the area of the surface sections A 2, A 5, A 1, A 6, all lying one above the other, on the underside of the surface section A 6 attached in the form of an adhesive strip 31 and 32 in the area of the tear-off edge strips 18 and 19.
  • the superimposed surface sections A 3 and A 4 are folded forward onto the other surface sections (FIG. 7) and glued to them by means of the adhesive strips 31 and 32. This completes the letter wrap, which at the same time forms the finished advertising letter 24 because of the use as a self-mailer.
  • FIG. 9 shows a paper web section 31 which still has the two edge strips 32 with the transport holes 33. These edge strips 32 are again cut off in a cutting station along the cut lines 34 shown in broken lines, as in FIG Fig. 9 a is indicated. This leaves the carrier web 35 of the paper web section 31 for a second exemplary embodiment of the advertising letter.
  • the carrier web 35 (FIG. 10) has a rectangular plan with the two longitudinal edges 36 and 37 and with the transverse edges 38 and 39.
  • the carrier web 35 is divided into five fields by four longitudinal fold points 41 ... 44.
  • the carrier web 35 also has two longitudinal perforations 45 and 46, which in turn run at a distance r from the adjacent longitudinal edge 36 and 37 and which have already been attached to the paper web 31.
  • the longitudinal perforations 45 and 46 each delimit a tear-off edge strip 47 or 48 from the five fields of the carrier web 35, as a result of which the five surface sections B 1... B 5 remain as the usable area of the advertising letter.
  • the transverse fold points 41 ... 44 are again (theoretically) at the same distance from one another, so that the surface sections B 1 ... B 5 are of the same height.
  • the one incision 51 is straight and runs at least approximately in the line of alignment of the transverse fold point 42.
  • the second incision 52 has an arrow-shaped course, its tip facing the transverse edge 38. Its two sections 53 and 54 run from the tip outwards on both sides in an oblique direction. They extend at least up to the longitudinal perforation 45 or 46 and expediently exceed this by a small amount.
  • the area delimited by the two sections 53 and 54 of the incision 52 and by the transverse fold point 43 forms one Envelope flap 65 for a return envelope made from the two surface sections B 4 and B 5, with which, for example, the two surface sections B 1 and B 2 serving as an autograph letter or as an order form or the like can be sent, for example, can be returned to the sender of the advertising letter.
  • an adhesive application in the form of two adhesive strips 55 and 56 is applied to the top of the surface section B 4 within the two longitudinal perforations 45 and 46. They extend in the longitudinal direction from the transverse fold point 43 to the transverse fold point 44. In the transverse direction, they extend inward from the adjacent longitudinal perforation 45 or 46 by a width which is sufficient to securely bond the two surface sections B 4 and B 5 to guarantee.
  • a further adhesive application in the form of two adhesive strips 57 and 58 is applied in the area of the surface section B 4. These also extend in the longitudinal direction from the transverse fold point 43 to the transverse fold point 44. In the transverse direction, they extend inwards from the longitudinal edge 36 or 37 in the direction of the longitudinal perforation 45 or 46. Since here the adhesive strips 55 and 56 connect on the other side of the two longitudinal perforations, the two adhesive strips 57 and 58 can extend as far as the longitudinal perforations 45 and 46, so that the two adhesive strips 55 and 57 or 56 and 58 lying next to one another like a single, wide strip of adhesive appears and can also be attached as such.
  • the field with the surface section B 5 is folded forward about the transverse fold point 44 onto the field with the surface section B 4 (FIG. 11) and glued to it by means of the adhesive strips 55 ... 58.
  • another adhesive application in the form of the two adhesive strips 59 and 60 is applied in the surface area of the two tear-off edge strips 47 and 48. They extend in the longitudinal direction from the transverse fold point 42 to the transverse fold point 43. In the transverse direction they each extend from the longitudinal edge 36 or 37 inwards to just before the longitudinal perforation 45 or 46.
  • the two superimposed fields with the surface sections B 4 and B 5 are folded over the transverse fold point 43 forward onto the top of the field with the surface section B 3 (FIG. 13) and glued to it by means of the adhesive strips 59 and 60.
  • a further adhesive application in the form of the two adhesive strips 61 and 62 is applied in the surface area of the tear-off edge strips 47 and 48, the surface area of which corresponds to that of the two adhesive strips 59 and 60.
  • the now three-overlapping fields with the surface sections B 3, B 4 and B 5 are folded over the transverse fold point 42 forward onto the top of the field with the surface section B 2 (FIG. 15) and glued to it by means of the adhesive strips 61 and 62.
  • a last adhesive application in the form of the two adhesive strips 62 and 63 which correspond to the preceding adhesive strips, is applied in the area of the surface section B 1 in the surface area of the tear-off edge strips 47 and 48.
  • the merged fields with the surface sections B 2 ... B 5 are folded forward around the transverse fold point 41 to the top of the field with the surface section B 1 (FIG. 17) and by means of the two adhesive strips 62 and 63 glued to it. With this last folding and gluing process the letter wrap is finished, which also represents the advertising letter 64 (FIG. 18).
  • the two outer fields with the surface sections B 1 and B 2 at least one on its outside, which corresponds to the underside of the carrier web 35, carries individual details of the individual letter recipient in the manner of his postal address. If the two surface sections B 1 and B 2 are returned later, they already contain the individual information. Apart from that, further individual details, such as a customer number, can be attached to the surface sections B 1 and B 2, for which in particular the top of the two surface sections B 1 and B 2, which are located on the inside of the finished advertising letter, can be considered.
  • the paper web section 71 shown in FIG. 19 has the two edge strips 72 with the transport holes 73. These edge strips 72 are cut off in a cutting station along the cutting lines 74 (FIG. 19 a), so that the carrier web 75 remains (FIG. 20).

Out for this reason, the cut-in 89 could also be made at a different location between the two transverse edges 78 and 79. In addition, there could also be further incisions in the area of the surface sections C 1 and C 2, as will be shown later.

  • the number and the position of the incisions between two surface sections vary widely, with at least one pair of surface sections lying in a column next to one another, or more precisely one above the other, without an incision (and also without a transverse perforation).
  • the folding processes from the flat carrier web to the finished winding are then to be carried out in such a way that these two surface sections are at the end at the end.
  • a type of spiral folding process was used predominantly or consistently.
  • some or all of a kind of fanfold folding process can also be used if this results in a better assignment of the individual surface sections to one another. This depends not least on the position and the mutual distance of the cross fold points and thus on the height of the individual surface sections and on the number and the position or distribution of the incisions.
  • Fig. 150 ... 161 some folding processes are shown in schematic representation using carrier webs with six rows of fields. The surface sections thereof can be arranged in one or in two columns, it being assumed in the latter case that the first folding process around the longitudinal fold point has already been carried out.
  • the carrier web 401 shown in FIG. 162 is similar to the carrier web 161 (FIG. 46). It has the longitudinal edges 402 and 403 and the transverse edges 404 and 405.
  • the carrier web 401 each has a trimming strip 406 and 407 along the two longitudinal edges 402 and 403, which are later cut off along the dashed lines 408 and 409, respectively. These cutting lines 408 and 409 have the distance s from the adjacent longitudinal edge 402 and 403, respectively, which corresponds to the width of the subsequent trimming.
  • the two trim strips 406 and 407 are shown without transport holes.
  • the carrier web 401 is cut off from an endless paper web, it can be assumed that, in the same way as with the carrier webs dealt with previously, the two trim strips 406 and 407 are provided with transport holes which serve to ensure that the individual characteristics and details for and / or completely and correctly positioned on the carrier web in question via the letter recipient.
  • the carrier web 401 is usually provided with so-called gripper edges or gripper edge strips, on which the single sheets are gripped and transported by transport grippers between the machines and within the sheet-fed printing machine and the labeling machine.
  • the carrier web 401 is based on the last-mentioned embodiment.
  • the carrier web 401 is divided into four fields by three transverse fold points 411 ... 413, which have the same height h as the finished winding 414 (FIG. 169). If the two trim strips 406 and 407 are accounted for from the four fields, the surface sections Q 1 ... Q 4 result.
  • the incision 415 and the transverse perforation 416 extend in the transverse direction at least up to the cutting lines 408 and 409.
  • the transverse fold point 412 between the two middle surface sections Q 2 and Q 3 is without incision or transverse perforation.
  • a relief perforation 417 and 418 or 419 and 420 is provided at both ends of both the incision 415 and the transverse perforation 416 (FIG. 164). These relief perforations 417 ... 420 run at least approximately at right angles to the incision 415 or to the transverse perforation 416 and thus parallel to the longitudinal edges 402 and 403.
  • the relief perforations 417 ... 420 are expediently arranged in the line of alignment of the cutting lines 408 and 409, along the the bleed is later cut off.
  • the relief perforations should at least not lie within the two cutting lines but at most slightly outside of them.
  • the length of the relief perforations 417 ... 420 depends on various circumstances, including e.g. on the thickness and rigidity of the paper in the plane of the paper and on the number of cross folds and the resulting number of fields surrounding each other in the winding. In the simplest case, a simple perforation cut is sufficient. In other cases, two or three, rarely more, perforation cuts are more appropriate.
  • the relief perforations 417 ... 420 can already be attached to the paper web or to the paper web sections or to the individual sheets for the carrier webs. They have to be attached at the latest before the beginning of the folding processes, because they are intended to facilitate them. This means, among other things, that the relief perforations also with such Self-mailers should be attached, in which, for example, because of a larger number of fields lying one above the other, the longitudinal perforations for the tear-off edge strips are only attached to the finished roll after the folding operations have ended.
  • the field with the surface section Q 1 is first folded forward over the transverse fold point 411 to the field with the surface section Q 2 (FIG. 163).
  • the field with the surface section Q 4 is then folded forward over the transverse fold point 413 to the field with the surface section Q 3.
  • a row of fields for example the one with the surface sections Q 1 and Q 2, is folded forward onto the other row of the fields with the surface sections Q 3 and Q 4 (FIG. 167).
  • the roll 414 is completely folded.
  • the cutting strips 406 and 407 are cut off along the cutting lines 408 and 409. This creates the finished sales letter 421 (Fig. 171).
  • 172 shows the position and mutual assignment of the different surface sections as well as their (slight) mutual displacement.
