Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a print bag in which a printed picture is easily inserted and which is hardly broken. CONSTITUTION:This print bag 10 is provided with a pocket 14 and a flap 15, and notches 17 and 18 are formed at upper parts of both side ends of the pocket 14. The printed picture formed by simultaneous printing and a negative sheath are housed in the pocket 14, and the flaps 15 is folded along a fold 16 lest they should slip out. Since the notches 17 and 18 are formed at both side ends, the end of the pocket 14 is not broken even when the pocket 14 is largely opened. Since the pocket 14 is largely opened, the printed picture, etc., are easily inserted.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a print bag used for accommodating a print photograph or a negative sheath made by simultaneous printing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a DP agency receives a request for simultaneous printing, it fills in a DP bag with an open upper part with the customer's name, finish details, etc., and then puts a cartridge in the bag and sends it to the photo lab. At the developing station, first, the cartridge is taken out from the DP bag, then the exposed negative film is pulled out from the cartridge, and the exposed negative film is set in the film processor for development processing. The developed negative film is set in a photographic printer and each frame is sequentially printed and exposed on photographic paper. The exposed photographic paper is developed by a paper processor and then cut into individual print photographs.

The printed negative film is set on a cutting inserter, cut into, for example, 6 pieces of negative pieces, and then inserted into the bag portion of the negative sheath. A negative sheath containing one negative film is collated with a plurality of print photographs, and then these are stored in a print bag. After collating the print bag with the DP bag, the print bag is put into the DP bag and returned to the DP agency.

[0004]

The conventional print bag has the following problems.
A pocket having a gradually changing depth and a flap are provided so that one end becomes deep. A negative sheath or a print photograph is put in the pocket, and then the flap is bent so as to cover the pocket.

At present, collation of a negative sheath with a print photograph and loading of these print bags are performed manually. Therefore, attempts are being made to automate the process from the separation of the print photographs to the loading into the DP bag, but in this automation, it is necessary to mechanically open the pocket. When the pocket is opened by the operator's care, the current print bag will not cause any problem, but when opening the pocket mechanically, the pocket cannot be opened wide enough, and it is forcibly opened. There is a problem that both ends of the pocket are torn.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a print bag which can be opened to a sufficient size without breaking the pocket.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the print bag of the present invention has a pocket for storing a folded negative sheath and a print photograph, a flap for covering the pocket, and a pocket for the pocket. It is composed of notches formed in the upper portions of both side ends.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG.
It is made by folding a piece of paper and then gluing the sides of this part together. That is, the diagonally cut edge 11 is folded back, and the margins 12 and 13 are adhered to both side ends of the folded back portion to form the pocket 14. Due to this oblique edge 11, the depth of the pocket 14 gradually changes. In addition, it is preferable that the shallowest portion has the same width as the negative piece.

The edge 11 forms a mouth of a pocket 14, and a plurality of print photographs produced by simultaneous printing and a negative sheath into which developed and printed negative pieces are inserted are put into the pocket 14 from the mouth. . The flap 15 is bent from a crease 16 that has been made in advance, and covers the mouth of the pocket 14 so that the print photographs and the negative sheath stored in the pocket 14 do not come out.

When a printed photograph or the like is put in the pocket 14, the mouth of the pocket 14 is opened. At this time, if it is opened widely or mechanically, both side ends of the pocket 14 are often broken. Therefore, the lengths of the margins 12 and 13 are shortened so as not to reach the end edge 11, so that the notches 17 and 18 having the lengths L1 and L2 are formed in the upper portions of both side ends of the pocket 14, respectively. . In this embodiment, the lateral width of the front surface 19 of the pocket 14 is slightly smaller than the lateral width of the rear surface 20, but near the edge 11 a rectangular cut is made on both sides so that the lateral width of the front surface 19 is considerably narrow. You may form a notch and use this as a notch. In this case, since the negative sheath is exposed in the one notch formed in the shallow depth portion, it is easy to grasp with a finger when taking out the negative sheath.

Next, an automatic loading system using the print bag of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. Supply section (not shown) with multiple print bags stacked diagonally
Is set, and one of them is pulled out and sent to the nip roller pair 25, 26. The pair of nip rollers 25 and 26 feeds the print bag 10 obliquely downward toward the receiving plate 27, as shown in FIG. Even after the lower end of the print bag 10 hits the receiving plate 27, the nip roller pairs 25 and 26 are further rotated, so that the print bag 10 is curved in the direction of the front surface 19 as shown in FIG. Open a little.

Next, the pair of guide plates 28 enter into both sides of the pocket 14 while swinging. As a result, the lower end of the print bag 10 comes off the receiving plate 27, and the pocket 1
Since the front surface 19 of 4 is substantially horizontal, the mouth of the pocket 14 is wide open. At this time, since the notches 17 and 18 are formed at both ends of the pocket 14, the pocket is not broken.

At the gathering station, a leaflet 3 for advertising the folded negative sheath 30 and the print service.
1, a plurality of print photographs 32 are gathered with the long one facing down. These laminates are clamper 33
After being clamped by, it advances toward the print bag 10 together with the clamper 33, and enters into the pocket 14 of the print bag 10 opened by the guide plate 28. At this time, since the mouth of the pocket 14 is slanted by the edge 11, the pocket 14 gradually enters the pocket 14 from the right end.

The clamper 33 puts the accumulated material in the pocket 1
Because the flap 15 of the print bag 10 moves forward while being inserted into the inside 4, the flap 15 of the print bag 10 rotates around the nip rollers 25 and 26 and comes out therefrom. As a result, the print bag 10 accommodating the accumulated product comes out of the pair of guide plates 28 and then enters the U-shaped holder 35. After that, the clamper 33 releases the clamp of the aggregate and then returns to the initial position. Similarly, the pair of guide plates 28 also returns to the initial position.

When the print bag 10 is put into the holder 35, the holder 35 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise with the shaft 36 as a fulcrum to vertically raise the print bag 10. At the time of this rotation, the back surface of the flap 15 is received by the folding plate 37, so that the flap 15 is folded.
It is folded from 6 and laid over the front face 19 so as to close the pocket 14.

Next, when the holder 35 is rotated 90 degrees in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing, the print bag 10 slides down from the open side, opens the mouth, and enters the waiting DP bag.
After this, the holder 35 returns to the initial position shown in (A),
Prepare to load the next print bag.

[0017]

As described in detail above, the present invention is
Since the notches are formed in the upper portions of both side ends of the pocket, the pocket is not torn even when the print bag is mechanically opened. Further, since the pocket can be opened wide, it is easy to put a print photograph, a negative sheath or the like.
