UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
LIFHVOOD WENDELL HARGROVES AND HERBERT LOUIS HERMAN, OF AUGUSTA,
' GEORGIA.
ENVELOPE.
Application filed March 1, 1923. Serial No. 622,073.
This invention relates to envelopes and more particularly envelopes especially designed for shipping articles.
The primary object of the invention is to provide an envelope of a novel construction wherein the envelope may be used as a return container, novel means being provided to cover the originaladdress as placed thereon.
Another-object of the invention is to provide means for facilitating the bending or folding of the envelope to accomplish this result.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and-arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes inthe precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, Without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawings: 0
Figure 1 is an elevational view of an envelope constructed in accordance with the invention and disclosing the same in its sealed position.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the envelope.
Figure 3 is an elevational view disclosing an envelope in its open position.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on line ll of Figure 3. I
Referring to the drawings in detail, the envelope includes a body portion 5 which may be of any desired shape and formed of any desired material particular for its use.
The reference'character 6 designates the upper or folded end of the envelope which is secured to the body portion 5 as by means of the flexible material 7 formed preferably of cloth to insure against the folded end 6 becoming disconnected from the body portion. i
An eyelet indicated at 8 is disposed in each wall of the folded end 6 and accommodate the fastening member 9 carried by y the adjacent Wall of the body portion 5 so that the folded end of the envelope may be secured in its folded position to close the envelope.
As clearly shown by Figure l of the drawings, lines are provided on the folded sec tions 6 indicating places to Write the name and address of the person receiving the en velope. It is obvious that due to this construction, when the envelope has been forwarded to an address given on the exposed side of the folded end 6, the folded end (3 may be moved to the opposite side of the envelope and fastened, and the return address placed on the exposed side of the folded end.
WVha-t We claim as new is:
In an envelope, a body portion having an open end and a closed end, cloth members secured transversely of the body portion at a point adjacent to the open end of the body portion, and on opposite sides thereof to permit the open end of the body portion to be folded laterally in either direction to close the body portion, eyelets secured to the body portion at points in spaced relation with the open end of the body portion, and at opposite sides of the body portion, tening members secured to the body portion at opposite sides thereof and adapted to be inserted in the eyelets when the open end of the body portion is bent laterally in either direction, and each of the outer faces of the body portion adjacent to the open end thereof being ruled to receive the name and ad dress of the person sending the envelope.
In testimony that We claim the foregoing as our own, We have hereto afiixed our signatures.
