UNITED STATES NICHOLAS CONOMOS, 0F PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA.
PACKING PERISHABLE ARTICLES.
No Drawing. Application filed September To all whom it may concern:-
Be it known that I, NICHOLAS CONOMOS, a subject of the King of Greece, and resi' dent of Pittsburgh, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Packing Perishable Articles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to the art of packing perishable articles such as confectionery, tobacco products, dairy products and the like, and its object is to provide an improved method of packing such articles which shall be inexpensive and shall effectively exclude air and moisture from the packa e.
Artlcles which will deteriorate when exposed to the air are commonly wrapped in waxed paper, tin foil, or in both paper and foil. Such packages, even when carefully sealed, have openings at the folds ofthe wrappers through which air can penetrate.
According to my present invention I use gelatine as an agent for excluding air and moisture from perishable articles, and I apply the glatine in such a way that every part of the surface of the article is covered with a continuous layer of gelatine and in such a way that the gelatine coating may be readily and practically completely removed when the article is to be used.
e I prefer to apply gelatine coatings to perishable articles by spreading a solution of gelatine while hot upon paper, tin'foil or other sheet wrapping material, and then wrapping the coated sheet around the article to'be packed, taking care that the still liquid gelatine is brought into contact with every part of the surface of the article.
I may apply the gelatine coated paper or foil directly to the chocolate, tobacco or other article, so as to bring the gelatine into direct contact with the article or, when it is not desired that the gelatine. shall come into actual contact with the article I first wrap the article in ordinary untreated paper, foil or other sheet material, andthen wrap this package in a elatine-coated sheet in the manner describe above.
In carrying out my process, ordinary gelatine is boiled in water to produce a' thick solution, the consistency of which will vary more or less, according to the nature of the 2, 1922. Serial No. 586,018;
articles to be packed, and the length of time for which such articles are to be preserved. This solution is spread with a brush, or otherwise, upon the wrapping sheets just before the articles are to be wrapped, in order that the gelatine may be still wet and warm when the wrapper is applied to the articles.
Many different articles maybe wrapped in the manner described above, among which may be mentioned chocolate, candy, and other confections, either in bars or enclosed in cartons nut pastes, nut butter, dairy butter, cheese, cigars and chewing tobacco. It will be understood that my invention is not restricted to the particular articles herein-mentioned, but may be used wherever is desired.
I prefer to employ gelatine alone as the coating material because it is edible and will not be harmful to the consumer if particles thereof adhere to the wra ped article when the wrapper is removed. I-Iowever, the gelatine may, if desired, be mixed with mnall quantities. of guni-arabic or other gums or protection from air and moisture fillers. For the best results the coating ma-- terial should consist at least gelatine.
As a variation. of myprocess, the gelatine may be applied directly to the articles by means of a brush or by dipping the articles in a gelati-ne solution and then wrapping in paper or other'sheet material while the gelatine is still wet. I prefer, however, to employ the process in which the wrapping sheets are first coated with the gelatine and then wrapped around the articles.
When articles treated in this manner are unwrapped the gelatine comes off with the paper or foil and imparts neither taste nor odor to the product.
I claim as my invention:
The process of packing articles that deteriorate when exposed to the air, which comprises coating a wrapping sheet with a gelatine-containing solutlon and wrapping mainly of an article in said sheet with the gelatine on the side of said sheet toward the article and while the coating is still wet.
In testimony whereof I,'the said Nronoms CoNoMos, have hereunto set my hand;
NICHOLAS CQNOMOS.
