DESCRIPTION OF A GROUP OF USEFUL MODELS Multifunctional return envelope booklet (options).

A group of utility models relates to envelopes for mailing, namely, return envelopes intended for double use - delivery by mail to the addressee and reuse by the recipient of the same envelope for its second delivery by mail to the desired address.

For example, a double-use postal envelope is known (see Russian Patent No. 2113384, IPC-6 B65D27 / 06, priority 06.02.1996, double-use postal envelope and method for reuse of a double-use envelope).

The specified envelope is a regular mail envelope, which in the expanded state has a rectangular front side and four triangular valves - one on each edge of the rectangular side. The reuse of the envelope is achieved by carefully opening it when it is possible to open the envelope without damaging it, as well as the necessary printed postal information printed on the opposite side of the envelope-side envelope.

The disadvantage of such an envelope is the need to carry out its first printing after delivery with great care, as careless opening of the envelope, in which it may receive any damage, will not allow it to be used again. In addition to the possible reuse, such an envelope does not have any other useful functions.

A double-use postal envelope is also known (see Russian patent No. 2151724, IPC-7 B65D27 / 06, priority November 13, 1998, envelope for writing).

This is a rectangular envelope formed from two rectangular parts of the sheet, one of which is made with three ribbon-shaped ears for

sealing the envelope.

The design of this envelope is significantly different from the design of the envelope described above. However, it solves the same problem of reusing the envelope and has the same disadvantages as in the first example.

The closest analogue was selected Japan patent No. 09-301377, IPC B65D27 / 06, priority 05/10/1996, Envelope with a paid response.

The essence of this envelope is to make it out of a sheet that contains three rectangular parts - one central and two side. On both sides of the central part, the requisites for sending (there and back) are marked. One side part (which is the front) at the edges of its short sides has a ribbon-shaped eyelet, and the second side part (which the envelope is sealed with) is made with longitudinal perforation. By perforation, before reusing the envelope, they tear off a fragment of this side along with the first postal address written on it and the already unnecessary one. After tearing off a fragment of the side, a longitudinal ribbon-like eye remains from it, which will be used to re-seal the envelope instead of the fragment torn off by perforation.

The design of such an envelope is more sophisticated than the previous two, due to the stipulated payment for the answer, as well as a tear-off fragment, the damage of which upon printing will not prevent the reuse of the envelope. But still printing this envelope, like

the two previous ones, requires not only caution, but also skill, for

1 inadvertently peeling off its side with an address can lead to

destroying the opposite front of the envelope, making the envelope unsuitable for reuse. A careless peeling of the ears of the front part can also lead to the same negative result.

As in the two previous envelope designs discussed, this design, in addition to the paid reuse of the envelope, also does not provide it with any other useful functions.

The basis of the group of utility models is the task of creating variants of one, kind and purpose of multifunctional return envelope booklets connected by one inventive concept of the group, the design of which

together with the important function of reusing envelopes and providing the possibility of manufacturing them from a simple rational workpiece with minimal material costs, would allow them to also provide other useful functions, namely, the possibility of using envelopes as:

-aerogram (when the text of the letter is written on the material of the envelope, so that the letter has a minimum weight, and the cost of its delivery by airmail is significantly reduced);

-information booklets or commercial offers, or letters of inquiry, which are made in the form of booklets (when the information or proposal is located on the folded parts of the envelope and is read after they are opened);

-information letters (when text information is on the outer part of the envelope and to read it the envelope does not even need to be opened);

- business letters (when the message is on the closed part of the envelope and to read it the envelope must be opened);

- combined information and business letters (when the business part of the letter is located on the closed side of the envelope, and the information and commercial letter is on the open).

In practice, for this kind of message, as a rule, special envelopes are used that are designed for any one specific type of mail message. Therefore, an envelope with multifunctional properties and the possibility of manufacturing from a simple and rational workpiece can not only unify it, but also reduce production costs during production.

This goal is achieved by creating several useful models with new common design features that simultaneously with a single inventive concept and purpose combine them into a group of useful models (options).

The common characteristic design features inherent in each multifunctional return envelope booklet of a group of utility models include the presence of each of them:

-the three functional areas into which the blank of the envelope is divided, therefore, the envelope itself - address, information and business;

-performing all three functional areas twice - once on each side of the blank sheet of the envelope, therefore, on the envelope itself;

- the location of the functional areas on different sides of the blank sheet of the envelope, therefore, of the envelope itself in such a way that the place of their placement on one side coincides with the location on the opposite;

- availability on the blank sheet along the common borders of the address, business and information areas of the kink lines, along which the blank sheet of the envelope is bent when making a multifunctional return envelope booklet from it.

The use of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 of the first embodiment of a multifunctional return envelope booklet, which in the expanded state has the shape of a regular rectangle and all three of which — address, information and business — are rectangular and of the same size, are as follows.

Three areas of the envelope booklet are filled in with the appropriate data, address 1, information 2, and business 3, which are located on that side of its unfolding sheet, which contains the mark 12 there. At the same time, it is advisable to place, for example, advertising information or commercial offers, or questions during opinion polls, etc., in the information area that is open, and information of a business, personal, or confidential nature in the business area that is closed. It is advisable to fill in the address area with the addresses of 4 senders, 5 recipients and also with the sign 6 of the postage on the opposite side of the sheet, where the address area at the mark 12 has the inscription back. This will simplify and speed up the preparation of the response, as well as increase the likelihood of it being returned. For the same purpose, it is advisable to fill in the answer options with the information area on the opposite side of the sheet.

After filling in the areas of the envelope booklet, its business area along the inflection line 7 is bent and glued to the adhesive strips 8 that are on the information area, and then the address area is folded in the same way and glued using the adhesive strips 8 that are on it, to the business area, thereby closing its contents.

The recipient prints the resulting envelope booklet by tearing or cutting along the perforated line 11 of its side edges.

To reuse the envelope booklet, after filling in its areas, it is necessary to bend the business area along the inflection line and, using the two adhesive strips 9 placed on it, stick it to the information area. Then bend the address area in the same way and with the help of three adhesive strips 9 on the business area stick them to one another.

Shown in FIG. 3 and in FIG. 4 the second version of the envelope booklet, in the expanded state, the shape of a regular rectangle. All three of its areas - address, information and business are rectangular and the same in size. To send an envelope booklet there, its areas are bent in the same way as in the first version - first, a business area is put on the information area along the bend line, and then the business area is closed with the address area bent over the bend line. The envelope booklet is sealed with adhesive pad locks 10. The pad locks with their adhesive surface 8 provide bonding of the business and address areas attached to one another.

The recipient prints the received envelope booklet by opening the adhesive padlocks.

When reusing the second variant of the envelope booklet, its areas are bent in the same way as in the first version, and sealing is done by gluing the address area to the adhesive surface 9 applied to the business area.

Shown in FIG. 5 and in FIG. 6 the third version of the envelope booklet in the expanded state has the shape of a regular rectangle with address, information and business areas. Moreover, its business area consists of two parts separated from each other by address and information areas, the area of each of which does not exceed the sum of the areas of the address and

information areas.

Before sending the envelope booklet there, the pad lock 10 with the adhesive surface 9 (intended for gluing the envelope in the opposite direction) is bent along its longitudinal axial line towards the address area marked back. Then they bend along two longitudinal bend lines. separated from one another part of the business area. Then impose one of them on the address and information areas located in the central part. After that, another part of the business area is superimposed on the first, they are bent together along the axial transverse line again, and the envelope-booklet is sealed with a pad-lock 10 with an adhesive surface 8.

The recipient prints the received envelope-booklet by opening the glue lock-lining.

When reusing the third version of the envelope booklet, its areas are bent from the opposite side, similar to bends when sent there and sealed with a second pad lock 10 with an adhesive surface 9.

Figures 7 and 8 show the fourth version of the envelope booklet, which in the expanded state has a cross-shaped appearance. As in previous versions, the envelope booklet has an address, information and business areas. However, in this (fourth) option, the business area consists of three parts separated from one another.

Before sending there, first, along the kink lines 7, three parts of its business area 3 are separated one from another and laid one on top of the other. Then, in the same way, the kink line is bent over and overlaid with the address area 1, after which, using pad locks 10 with an adhesive surface 8, the envelope booklet is sealed.

The recipient prints the received envelope booklet by opening the adhesive padlocks.

When you reuse the fourth version of the envelope booklet, its areas are bent in the opposite direction similar to bends when sent there and sealed with an adhesive surface 9.

the nature of the adhesive surface printed on the envelope booklet (for example, in the form of a strip, or an intermittent strip, etc.), as well as the number of adhesive strips or adhesive locks on the functional areas of the envelope booklet are not its essential features in some cases at the suggestion of the customer, products are subject to change.

Thanks to the simple geometric forms of scans of all four options for the envelope booklet, its production will be virtually waste-free and can be carried out in any printing industry that specializes in the production of such products. A rational and technological design of the envelope booklet allows you to mechanize the process of its manufacture as much as possible with a significant reduction in cost.
