Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a so-called "manilla label", i.e. a tag which is intended for provisional fastening to a shipping unit such as a sack or, in more recent times, a pallet container, for the marking of the unit's destination and/or possibly the contents of the pallet container.
  • manilla labels or tags consisted of simple tags with a preferably edge-reinforced hole by which the tag could be fastened to a narrow part of the shipping unit by means of a piece of string.
  • the manilla label/ the tag in such a way that this in itself is configured with a projecting strip part, typically -consisting merely of carton or other thin sheet or foil material, which can completely re- place the otherwise separate binder element, when this strip part is configured with an outer locking-head part which, after the strip part has been wound around the relevant holding part, can be brought into engagement in a corresponding lock- ing hole in the manilla label.
  • These co-operating locking parts can be configured in such a way that the relevant operator can fasten the tag on the container pallet just as easily and quickly as the fastening of a perforated tag by means of a separate binding strip.
  • the separate binding strip will now consist of a simple, integrated part of the tag itself. This will result in a considerable cheapening of the individual fastening, and herewith a considerable saving in the use of the millions or billions of the current tags from the global point of view.
  • the locking hole can consist solely of a stamping through the tag, and thus the locking hole does not need to present a proper cut-out in the tag at the foot of the strip part.
  • Fig. 1 is plan view of a compete tag in accordance with a preferred embodiment
  • Fig. 2 and 3 are plan views which illustrate the closing of the carton strip part of the tag
  • Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the mounted tag
  • Fig. 5 is a plan view of a web of tags according to the invention intended for use together with a computer-controlled printer
  • Fig. 6 A-6D are examples of alternative configurations for the locking hole, where this consists of triangular- shaped slots stamped through the tag,
  • Fig. 7A-7F are example embodiments of alternative configurations of the locking hole, where this comprises a combination of cut-out and a stamped slot in the lower side of the cut-out, .and where the upper side edge of the cut-out is oriented transversely to the slot, and
  • Fig. 8 shows further examples of alternative embodiments of the locking hole, where this comprises a combination of cut-out and a slot stamped in the lower side of the cut-out, and where the upper side edge of the cut-out is upwardly arcuate.
  • the tag item 2 shown in fig. 1 is simply stamped out from a relatively thin carton material, and it consists of a rectangular field 4 with a projecting strip part 6, which outer- most has a widened head part 8 having edges 10 undercut at an angle and facing towards the field 4.
  • a triangular hole 12 near the root of the strip part 6, there is a triangular hole 12 with a downwards-facing apex 14, from which for a distance downwards there extends a cut line 16.
  • the upper edge of the hole 12 is slightly longer than the breadth of the strip 6.
  • the strip head 8 can simply be squeezed straight in through the area 12,16 with resulting elastic deformation of both the head 8 and the field material around this area. It is possible to open the strip in a corresponding manner by active pressing through the opposite way, but since the tags will hardly be desired to be reused, they can just as well be torn from the respective support parts, e.g. a bar on a container pallet as indicated by the stippled line in fig. 4. With such a tearing off, the strip loop will be stretched so that the said stop contact will be established.
  • the invention is naturally not limited to precisely that locking system shown for the strip 6, in that a sufficiently effective locking connection can be achieved with many other configurations.
  • Alternative configurations of the locking hole are shown in fig._6, 7 and 8. It can even be a possibility that instead of a mechanical locking system, use can be made of an adhesive connection where a self-adhering adhesive is applied to the relevant surface part(s), while the comple- mentary surface parts on neighbouring tags in a stack are provided with a coating which prevents adhesion.
  • the tags With the invention it will be possible for the tags to be produced from a continuous length of material, cf. fig. 5, which can be suitable for feeding through a computer-controlled printer for direct printing-out of the tags. As will be seen, it is hereby not conditional that the strips 6 shall extend precisely from the centre of a short side of the tags .
