' MAILING CONTAINER FOR JUNCTION GUT-UP REPORTS.
Application filed March 23, 1927. Serial No. 12 7,5223.
My invention relates to that class of de-- vices which may be used to transmit a collection of small papers or other small objects by mail, and is intended to obviate the necessity for the use of metal staples or other more or less bulky fastening means to prevent such papers or articles from being detached and possibly lost, and is also designed to prevent the envelope or container in which such papers or articles are transmitted from being mutilated in passing through the automatic mailing machines,
and also to minimize the riskof injury to such machines.
My invention is intended particularly for use by railroads and transportation companies, in the mailing of what are commonly termed junction cut-up reports, and a'lfords a simple, effective and inexpensive device for providing a universal method of handlin such reports, which are daily and in great numbers interchanged between the various carriers. I
The importance and advantages of my invention will become apparent. during the course of the following description, and the device may be readily understood by reference to the accompanying drawings, which are to be considered as a part of this specification, in Which- Fig. 1 indicates the front side of the container, showing the flat surface on which the address may be written;
Fig. 2 shows the rear side of the container, with the folded flaps partly broken away to show, the reports in place for mailing;
Fig. 3 shows the container open, ready to have the reports placed therein or removed therefrom Fig. 4 is similar view, showing the re ports partially removed from the container, and the means for effecting such removal;
Fig. 5 is a plan view of the container as assembled;
Fig. 6 is a cross sectional View, taken on the line 66 of Fig. 5
Fig. 7 is a cross sectional view, taken on line 7-7 of Fig. 5;
Fig. 8 is a modification of Fig. 7
Figs. 9 and 10 are detail views of the construction construction. Similar reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the entire description.
Referring specifically to the drawings, the numeral 10 indicates a sheet of stout manilapaper of the size and shape required for edge spaced from the dotted line 11, and
having its cross-wise edges sloped diagonally inwardly from said dotted line 11 to the outer edge of said fiap 13, while on the other longer side is a still wider fiap 14, also having its outer edge spaced from the dotted line 11, and with its crosswise edges also sloped diagonally inwardly but to a less degree. To the outer edge 15 of the flap 1% I apply a coating of gum or other suitable adhesive, of any desired width, to provide for adequate sealing of the containor when ready for mailin v To the sheet 10, by any convenient means, I apply and firmly allix a reinforcing sheet 16, of any suitable material, cut to fit the space included Within the lines of the dotted rectangle 11, the purpose of this reinforcing sheet 16 being to strengthen the finished container against the possibility of mutilation, and also to aiford a smooth writing surface on the address side of the container when read for mailin Having firmly affixed the superimposed reinforcin sheet 16 to the sheet 10, across the ends or the dotted rectangle 11 and flush with the outer line thereof I mount strips of heavy cardboard 17, and along the sides of said dotted rectangle 11 and flush with the outer'line thereof I mount similar cardboard strips 18, while at spaced intervals between the strips 18 I mount in similar way a plurality of cardboard strips 19, the ends of said strips 18 and 19 abutting the inner edges of the strips 17, all of said strips being firmly afiixed to the reinforcing sheet 16, the entire arrangement forming a plurality of rectangular spaces 20 in size to accommodate the reports designed to be placed therein.
The strips 18 and 19 are deeply scored crosswise oat their upper sides at their middle point 21, to allord place for a string 22 to be pressed therein and to lie crosswise oi the spaces 20, the string 22 being firmly attached at the end adjacent the tlap 13, and a short free end being permitted to extend beyond the outer strip 18 adjacent the flap 14.
It may in some cases be found desirable to employ the construction shown in Figs. 11 and 12, in which, instead of string I use a strip of tape 23. In such case the cardboard strips 18 and 19 are completelysew cred above the tape 23 and glued thereto, one end of said tape extending slightly beyond the outer strip 1.8, as clearly shown in Figs. 11 and 12.
The strips 17, 1S and 19, and the string 22 (or the tape 23, as the case may be,) benow in proper fixed position, the short flaps 12 are turned upwardly and inwardly orer the strips 17, and, by suitable means, are firmly fastened in place over and upon the upper sides of the strips 18 and 19, thus obviously forming pockets 2% at either end of the spaces 20, into which the ends of the junction reports 25 (which reports correspond in size and shape to the spaces 20) may he slipped and securely retained, lying therein lengthwise of the spaces 20 and across and above the string 2:2 or the tape 23. The flap 13 is now folded upwardly and inwardly over the filled container, and the flap is is folded inwardly and downwardly, its gummed edge resting pen the outer-surface or" the flap 13. The container is now ready to be sealed, addressed and mailed.
When the container reaches its destination, may be opened as any ordinary envelope, disclosing to View the junction reports in place in the spaces 29, as shown in Fig. 3. By pulling the free end of the tion, and 1 do not desire to be understood as limiting in lt thereto.
Having described my invention, what I regard as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:
1. A, mailing container for reports, comprising a container of heavy paper, there being secured thereto a plurality of spaced compartments which coincide in size with said reports, detachable means which er;- tends transversely of said spacers and embedded therein helow the reports.
2. A mailing container for reports, comprising a container of heavy paper, there being sec red thereto a plurality oi spaced com 'iartments which coincide in size with said reports, flexible means which extends across said compartments and said spacers, embedded in said spacers.
A sheet of heavy manila paper, rectangular in shape, -trointhe ends of which 03;- tend narrow iiaps and wider flaps on the longer sides, a reinforcing sheet suitably connected to said rectangular sheet, a plurality of narrow strips of heavy cardhoard mounted at spaced intervals upon said rectangular reinrorcing sheet, the flaps at the ends of the manila paper being turned and fastened over the ends oi said strips of cardboard, there being a scoring across the center of said cardboard strips and flexible means embedded in said scoring.
