IMPROVEMENT IN PAPER BAGS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l 64,462, dated J une 15, 1875; application filed May 15, 1e75.

' To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EMIL LANGGEssEE, of Atlanta, in the county of Fulton and State of Georgia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Paper Bags, of which the following is a specification Figure l is a plan view of my improved bag before being folded, showing in dotted lines the creases for the folds. Fig. 2 represents the same after the two parts have been folded together, and the corners at the bottom folded in between the two parts. Fig. 3 represents the lower part of the same after the next fold has been made, and showing` by shade lines the position ofthe paste. Fig. 4 represents thelower partof the same after the nextfold has been made. Fig. 5 represents the lower part of the same after the last fold has been made. Fig. 6 is a cross-section of the completed bag, taken through the line x Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a longitudinal section of the completed'bag, taken through the line 3/ y, Fig. 5.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

The object of this invention is to furnish an improved paper bag made in one piece, with a seamless or Satchel bottom, which, when iilled, will stand erect, and which will not be liable to draw apart at its seams.

The invention consists in a paper bag made in one piece, with a seamless or satchel bottom, by folding it together in the manner hereinafter fully described.

A represents the -piece of paper of which the bag is to be made, and which is made of 4of the desired size.

such a length and breadth as will form a bag The paper A is folded together along the central cross-line al, and the corners at the bottom are folded in between the two parts along the inclined lines a2. The side parts ofthe upper part are then folded in along the line a3, and the paste is applied to the parts indicatedby the shade lines. The side parts ofthe two folds of the upper part are then folded back along the line a4, as shown in Fig. 4., which paste down the angular lower ends of said folds. rlhe side parts of the lower part are then folded down along the lines a5, which paste down the lower angular ends of said folds, and paste the side edges of the two parts to each other, and the formation of the bag is completed. With this construction, when the bag has been filled and isset erect, the part between the lines as, Fig. l, will be at, as shown in Fig. 7, so that the bag will stand withot being liable to tip over. With this construction the seams of the bag will be less liable to draw apart than when the bag is made in the ordinary way.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A paper bag made in one piece, with a seamless Satchel-bottom, which is folded on the lines al, a2, a3, a, and a5, as shown and described. A
