Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the sector of paper and cardboard design techniques and more in particular to a mailer made of cardboard or equivalent material, provided with at least one compartment, closed by a removable leaf, designed to contain, and hide, an object having a substantially two-dimensional development, such as a brochure or leaflet for information or advertising purposes, a credit card, a membership card, or a ticket for an event or show.
  • the contents of the compartment can be taken out merely by tearing the aforesaid leaf along a pre-set tear line, which also enables complete detachment thereof from the cardboard on which it is provided, on the one hand, rendering evident any attempt at theft or tampering and, on the other, also enabling re-use of said part of the mailer according to the invention, given its shape, for further advertising and commercial messages.
  • Constituting an additional characteristic of the mailer according to the invention is the fact that, as further communication tool capable of surprising the customer, inside the mailer, on the wall that closes said compartment there may be present pre-dinked shapes - graphically representing objects or tools - which are provided, that is, with perforated lines along the corresponding contours that facilitate detachment thereof and their independent use.
  • the mailer forming the subject of the present patent application overcomes all the critical aspects highlighted above, security being guaranteed by the anti-theft tear-away system for closing of the single housing, with the added possibilities of re-using the removable part, given its shape, for other purposes (for example, advertising or commercial purposes), and of supplying materially additional communication tools, which can be used separately from one another and cannot fail to have a big effect on the clientele to which the mailer is addressed.
  • the mailer that forms the subject of the present invention merely by way of example, is rectangular in shape and is made of cardboard (or equivalent material), with a central fixed part and two side flaps that can be folded like a book on one another, where the central part A functions as base, the first flap B is provided with an extensive window D, and provided on the flap C is a perforated line 1 that delimits a purposely provided tear-open leaf E, as will be described more fully hereinafter.
  • FIGs 5 to 8 illustrate the steps of preparation of the mailer.
  • the flap B is folded and glued on the central part A thanks to two adhesive strips provided along the two free sides 7 and 8, thus defining a compartment, designed to contain substantially two-dimensional objects, such as for example coupons, brochures, CDs, cards, and the like, which is open on just one side to enable removal of the contents ( Figure 7 ).
  • the above compartment is then sealed by folding and gluing the flap C in turn on the flap B, by means of the adhesive strips provided along the three free sides 7, 8, and 9.
  • the leaf E thus formed which may have variable dimensions and shape, is raised so as to enable access to the underlying housing and extraction of the contents H therefrom.
  • the window D enables the contents of the compartment to be viewed, even before they are taken out.
  • Each leaf E in addition to being provided with a contour tear line 1, is purposely provided with a tab 4, surrounded by perforations having a pitch that is slightly longer than that of the leaf, this enabling the user, once the tab has been raised, to tear open the leaf E easily without tearing either the leaf itself or much less the cardboard B.
  • the user will have to pull the tab 4 of the leaf E so as to be able to gain access to the underlying compartment.
  • leaf may assume different shapes characterized by further tear lines, which enable creation, by way of example, of advertising coupons, cards or any visual-communication product that may be used also independently.
  • FIGS 15-18 illustrate a variant of the invention, where the flap B has a lower height than the base A and the top leaf C.
  • the side 8 thus remains free so as to enable easy access to the compartment for insertion and extraction of the leaflet, card, or ticket that the mailer is to contain.
  • the flap B advantageously has a plurality pre-dinked shapes V representing objects or figures that can easily be detached and used individually.
  • the shapes refer to various work tools that may be present in a toolbox. It goes without saying that this constitutes a pleasant surprise that undoubtedly attracts the interest of the recipient of the mailer and of his or her family.
  • the solution that is described opens up various possibilities: for example, playing cards or more or less widespread elements of games may be reproduced so as to involve adults and children alike in activities that can be protracted in time, thus increasing the outreach and hold of the advertising message and so guaranteeing its effectiveness.
  • the mailer according to the present invention which has been represented with a preferred rectangular shape, may assume an extremely wide range of shapes.
