Description

ADHERABLE SHIRT POCKET AND ADVERTISING ADVERTISEMENT POCKET FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to the irrationality of dresses and the application to them of badges, emblems and other devices that present information, and more specifically to a way to quickly and removably form a bag that presents a message on the surface of a garment of wear. This invention also relates to document advertisements, pen holders and containers.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Sacks, T-shirts and similar garments are often decorated in their front area with embroidered ornaments, and decorated with badges or buttons that display messages. Many such garments, "especially T-shirts, do not have chest pockets which are convenient for transportax pens, sunglasses or small documents." People like exh? Bir_ emblems regarding their belonging to a group or particular organization, or of your enthusiasm and support for a sports team or a popular idol.

The invention results from an attempt to combine in a single article the convenience of an attached pocket with a message or a device having a symbol which can be easily and removably placed on a piece of clothing. The device can also be adapted to the display and mailing of documents, particularly photographs.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION A main objective of this invention is to provide a disposable pocket which can be removably attached to any support such as a wall or a piece of clothing, and which can be marked with a decorative graphic or informational message. Another object of the invention is to provide such a device in an inexpensive and easy to manufacture version that provides in itself a wide variety of expressive configurations. A further objective of this invention is to provide a package for candy, chewing gums and other small items that can be attached to a garment to form a reusable but removable and disposable pocket. A further object of the invention is to manufacture removable pockets, document advertisements and document containers by means of printing presses such as those used to make labels with an adhesive backing, as described in the parental application. These and other useful objects are obtained by forming a pocket on a section of a fabric, for example the front part of a shirt by attaching it adhesively to the fabric, with a printed label type ornament and engraved_fabricated. of two sheets of paper permanently joined around their peripheries and provided with a groove along an upper edge which provides a removable access to the pocket formed between the sheets. The front outer surface of the pocket is preferably decorated with an emblem or an advertising message that can be used to display the affiliation of a person to a club or its membership to an association, or the support of a person to a political candidate, a team sports or a favorite champion. In the manufacture of the pockets mentioned above, suitable for use as advertisements and as containers for documents such as photographs, printing presses are used to print glue patterns that maintain the peripheral edges of the new device's sheets, as described in the present and in the parental application Serial No. 08 / 726,912, application which is incorporated in this specification by reference.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED MODALITY OF THE INVENTION Referring now to the drawing, a "disposable, multi-ply" pocket 10 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 that can be removably applied to a preferably uniform and seamless woven cloth surface of a garment or any other surface substantially flat. The pocket comprises a first sheet of material 11 having a central portion 12 which has been engraved to enhance it in a plane XX 'parallel and spaced from the original plane YY' of the remaining peripheral portion 13 of the sheet surrounding the central portion 12 . The engraving depth can be limited to one or two millimeters (40 to 80 thousandths of an inch). The graphic information 14 such as a symbol, emblem, design or written message is applied to the central portion 12 by engraving, printing, painting, screen printing or a combination of these methods. The rear face 15 of the first sheet 11 is permanently attached around its peripheral portion 13 to the outer face of an intermediate sheet 16 with a heat-melt adhesive, rubber-based, resistant, or heat-sealed. A slot 18 cut along the upper edge of the central portion 12 provides access to the pocket 18A that is formed between the central portion of the first sheet and the intermediate sheets. The entire inner side 19 of the intermediate sheet is covered with a layer of high tack acrylic adhesive 20 which retains a high fraction coefficient and provides a strong but separable bond when placed in contact with another surface such as a woven fabric . From the time of manufacture until the pocket is ready to be applied to a garment, the acrylic adhesive layer 20 of the entire inner side of the intermediate sheet is protected by a peelable film 21 which is impregnated with wax or silicon for easy separation of the adhesive The first and intermediate sheets 11, 16 are preferably manufactured with a high, heavy rag content of paper bonded material, a vinyl coated cloth, a natural or synthetic material, a woven fabric or hair cloth, or any synthetic pliable sheet material, "or a laminated or non-laminated combination of multiple sheets thereof. The first sheet must have a minimum degree of ductility and a high resistance to tearing. In addition, or based on the recorded or printed graphic information, the central portion 12 can be cut out by punching to form a decorative pattern 22 through which a section of the outer side 23 of the sheet can be observed. Thus, it can be understood that the removable and detachable pocket can be formed instantaneously on an outer or inner surface of a garment by detaching and pressing the inner side of the intermediate sheet against a section of the garment's surface. A more permanent type of pocket can be formed by replacing the high-tack acrylic adhesive with a stronger thermoplastic type that can allow the ironing of the pocket on the fabric of the clothing. Decorative can also be applied to the peripheral section 13 of the first sheet as illustrated by the rivets simulated by engraving 24 on the four corner s of the device. Figure 3 groups in a single diagram, the various processes involved in the development of the pocket. It should be noted that these various processes are not necessarily "performed in line and simultaneously, but can be performed at different times." A roll or ribbon of pliable sheet material 25 runs -first through a pair. of printing rolls 26, 27, which are applied to their upper surface a graphic decoration or a printed message.The roll is then allowed to dry or is passed through a drying station 28 before being fed through a pair of rollers 29, 30 engraving. The surfaces of the two rollers have matching opposing raised and recessed areas 31, 32 corresponding to the desired engraved pattern. One of the rollers has a perpendicular blade 33 which cuts the groove 18 in the upper edge of the central section 12 of the pocket The engraved roll is then moved through another pair of rollers 34, 35. The surface of the roller 35 on the back side of the roll it is constantly loaded with the hot-melt adhesive 36 based on rubber, and is brought into contact only with the un-engraved sections 37 of the roll.In a separate carriage, a ribbon or roll is first passed through. 38 similarly by another roller mechanism 30 that applies adhesive, so that it covers its back side with the high tack acrylic compound 40. A roll 41 of peelable protective film is then placed on the adhesive by another roller mechanism 42. rolls 25, 38 and 41 are then joined in a final assembly process before passing through a cutting blade 44 separating the various pocket devices 45. It should be understood that it can be additional printing or decoration on either side of the second and third rolls 38, 41. Figure 4 illustrates a second embodiment of the invention in which the pocket 46 of a less complex configuration has been formed on a woven fabric section 47 of a surface of a garment. In this embodiment, the intermediate sheet 16 of the first mode has been omitted completely. The high tack acrylic adhesive has been applied to the back 48 of the marginal, non-raised peripheral section 49 of the single sheet for direct application to the surface of the woven fabric of a garment. The central portion 50 has been provided with lateral reinforcements 51, 52, which allow a larger volume content of the pocket. The opening slot 53 is temporarily sealed by a removable tape 54 which allows the pocket to be used as a container for sweets or other items until the removable, adhesive protective film 55, shown in broken line, is removed. In an alternative manufacturing process, the entire backsheet 48 of the single sheet is covered with the acrylic adhesive and covered with a commensurate peelable film 55. However, the central part of the film is cut peripherally to delineate the pocket compartment. This central part therefore remains in place when the film 55 is detached from one of the corners. Only the backside coated with adhesive of the peripheral section 49 is exposed and attached to the fabric section 47. The central part of the film remains as an inner lining of the pocket. A second alternative manufacturing method consists in the chemical neutralization of the central portion of the acrylic adhesive. This alternative process can be conveniently carried out in presses used in the production of die-sensitive pressure-cut labels. The reinforcements 51, 52 can be formed either by engraving or by preforming the central portion 50 separately from one or more compartments.

It should be understood that the same type of sealed container can be implemented more conveniently in relation to the preferred embodiment described before the invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the peelable protective film 21, 55 in any of the embodiments described prior to the invention is preferably printed with a postal card format 56 that includes dedicated areas for address, stamp and mail, and of this way this device turns into a container for mailing or postcards that can be folded like a disposable bag. This printing process on the backside can be conveniently performed by the roller 42 or the roller 43 of Figure 3. As illustrated in Figure 6, a third embodiment of the invention consists of an advertisement device 57 for a document 58 such as a photograph. As in the first two embodiments, the first sheet 59 is joined along its periphery, shown with dashed lines, with a strong adhesive or with the intermediate sheet 61. In addition, the first sheet has a large central cutout 62 through which the document 58 can be seen. A slot 63 cut through the first sheet between the central cutout 62 and the upper "Toorde 64" for inserting the document between the sheets first and intermediate.

The third waxed sheet 65 which is attached to the back of the intermediate sheet with a weaker adhesive is preferably made of a thicker paper material. The third sheet, which is grooved along a non-linear line 66 of three sections, leaves a gap 67 between opposite ends 68 and 69 of the slot. Accordingly, this portion 70 of the third sheet delineated by the slot and the partition 67 can be conveniently detached from the rear part of the intermediate sheet, and can be folded over the partition 67 to form a support leg, as shown. _ in figure 6. In the fourth embodiment of the invention 71 illustrated in figures 8 and 9, the first sheet 72 is completely transparent, and therefore a marginal area that is attached to the periphery is exposed along its periphery. intermediate sheet 74. In this embodiment, the slot through which the documents can be inserted into the pocket JSQ, cuts not on the first sheet, but on the intermediate and third sheets 75. It should be understood that the various features of the modalities described above can be shared among them. For example, the fourth embodiment _ may be provided with the support leg 70 of the third sheet and the first transparent sheet may be recorded in the same manner as in the first embodiment of the invention.

In the manufacturing method illustrated in Figure 1Q, the back, or inner side, of a first roll forming V ™ the third sheet of the pockets, is printed with a pattern 77 of peripheral glue through a first printing press presented by two rollers 78 and 79. A common rotating flexo press can be used for this purpose when replacing the glue instead of ink. If the roll is made from a non-porous material such as vinyl, it is advantageous to previously partially dry the glue pattern 80 when exposed to ultraviolet light. This step removes most of the moisture from the adhesive before the first roll comes into contact with the second roll 82 which will form the intermediate sheets of the pockets when both rolls are calendered by a second pair of rolls 83 and 84. It should be noted that the document insertion groove 85 can be cut by means of a roller die 86 - before the two rolls are joined. A high tack acrylic adhesive is applied to the entire back face of the second roll 82 by the roller assembly 87 before the third roll 88 is placed over the adhesive by the assembly 89 of roller. Any of the rollers 79 can be used to print information on the front face of the first roller. Finally, a die-roll assembly 90 is used to cut the assembled rolls into individual pockets. It should be understood that the document insertion slot can be cut alternately in the first roll or third roll as well as in the second roll. Similarly, the glue pattern can be applied to the front contact face of the second roll instead of the back of the first roll. It should be understood that although the method is illustrated in relation to a printing press, the same method can also be applied with platen or work presses thereon and a pocket arrangement can be delineated, and then printed in accordance with the previous teachings. Although preferred embodiments of the invention have been described, modifications may be made and other embodiments may be designed without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.
