Definitions
- the present specification concerns a model of utility referring to an improved multiuse letter-envelope, the evident purpose of which is to allow it to be used as a postal dispatch, having a message incorporated inside, with possibility of effecting, also, in the same dispatch, an answering area, allowing it to be written thru a computer, relying on a simplified closing method and the incorporation of appropiate address labels, and being capable of being used in every paper sizes considered as appropiate.
- This invention has an application in the industry field devoted to the manufacture of envelopes and similar.
- the improved multiuse letter-envelope as proposed by the invention constitutes per se an evident novelty within the area in which it is incorporated, since starting from same, it is possible to rely on an element which is capable of being used as a letter and, at the same time, as an envelope, and even as an answering sending, which can be manufactured with any type of material and sizes as it would be appropiately convenient, such as, generally paper, and being used conventional machines for its manufacturing, and being used, also, for performing manual texts.
- the improved multiuse letter-envelope as proposed by the invention is constituted starting from four perforated transverse strips.
- Three out of the four perforated transverse strips are of identical size, generally about a half a centimeter high, and located at the lower part of a sheet, and two longitudinal strips, one at each side, in a vertical position having a same width.
- these transverse strips will expedite the - opening of the multiuse envelope by the addressee.
- the fourth strip situated at the upper part, is markedly wider, and its function is to be used as an incorporation area of the addressee's address.
- This fourth strip by tearing or sticking on the window of the envelope, saves at maximum the paper, either folding it in an opposite sense for coinciding with the typical window, or, lastly, for being used at the area corresponding to an envelope with no window.
- the improved multiuse letter-envelope is constituted starting from a sheet of paper fitted with longitudinal side strips (2) having perforations in order to facilitate the drag of a printing machine; these strips can be eliminated after performing the letter printing thru longitudinal precutting lines, there being a transverse precutting or scoring line (4), separating the body of each of the multiuse letters located in a continuous way.
- each improved multiuse letter-envelope or module (1) there are transverse lines (4) delimiting rectangular areas in the module or sectors, three of the sectors being similar, and the fourth one (8) being markedly smaller, being perforated and glued since its function is to be used in a half as a label, and once this has been cut and glued internally on the window, the address of the own label will be externally visible.
- Figure 2 shows the manner in which the improved multiuse letter-envelope can be used with no window, since a half the smaller size sector (8) is intended for incorporating the label, and the other half non used can be used for incorporating the sender's address.
- the whole area (8) is to be fitted with a glue or adhesive film on its rear side.
- the address is to be glued on the exterior of the envelope at the height to be occupated by the window, and the sender's name on the rear side of the envelope.
- the invention contemplates a continuous paper sheet separated by means of scoring lines (4) transversally situated, - delimiting three rectangular areas (10) of similar size and one of them smaller (8), this latter presenting an area to fix a label (8'), and having adhesive lines (9) for facilitating the union of the different bodies configuring the multiuse letter-envelope - which is the object of the present invention.
- the label (8') can be located without being cut, and being only folded in an opposite sense to the other foldings, the label (8') being coincidental with the window (11).
- the invention can present exclusively two lateral strips and three horizontal strips located at the lower part of the multiuse letter-envelope, these - three strings being the most essential ones for their positioning, which is a fundamental characteristic: in the multiuse letter-envelope.
