A primary object of the invention is to pro-- vide a device of this character so constructed that it will plainly show the indicia or data relative to a customer, and by means of which this information is rendered rapidly available and yet `which effectively protects the receipts.
Another object is to so construct a device of this character that it will retain the receipts kept therein flat and prevent the corners thereof from being crumpled and the receipts from working up in the folder.
Another object is to construct a folder of this character so that receipts given for payments an account may be filed in the folder and then act as entries of payments on the account.
Still another object is to provide a device of this character which saves time, in which accounts are always posted up-to-date, which prevents errors of posting to the wrong account, and renders it possible to make reports to main offices, etc., which will show the actual entries made in the books of account without eXtra labor, and which provides instructions 3 0 for the correction of mailing lists and similar purposes without additional writing.
Another object is to provide a folder of this character in which convenient means are furnished for filing information relative to customers with the account itself and which may be used as a morgue by weekly and semiweekly newspapers. his device also renders the labor of a periodical transfer of the accounts to new sheets or cards unnecessary.
In carrying out these objects, the invention is susceptible of a wide range of modification without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the claimed invention there being shown in the drawings for illustrative purposes a preferred and practical form in which :V
Fig. 1 is a perspective view with the folder shown slightly open,
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 8 is a transverse section taken o'n the line 3-3 of Fig. 5,
Fig. 4- is a similar view taken on the line L15-4 of Fig. 5, v
Fig. 5 is another view taken from the front of another form of folder embodying this invention.
ig. 6 is a plan view of theblank from which the form shown in Fig. 1 is constructed, and
Fig. 7 is a similar view of the blank from which the form shown in Fig. 5 is constructed.
r'lhe folder shown in Figs. 1 and 2 iscon'- struc'ted Vfrom the rectangular Vblank 10 illustr'ated in Fig. 8 and preferably composed of heavy cardboard or other semi-rigid material and which is folded along the lines 11 and 12 to form the flaps or leaves 173 andV 14 andthe flap 15 of leaf 111. The leaf 13 is made wider than leaf 14 and the flap 15 is severed from leaf 14 at the corners thereof along the lines 16 and 17 whereby the ears 18 and 19 are formed. A
A tongue 20 is cut out of leaf 14 along the c linev 14a and is designedtov be folded downi 'ward and depend from the loweredge of leaf 13 as is shown clearly in Fig. 1. This tongue 20 is apertured as shown at 21 for the passage cfa rod, not shown, such as is usually carried by a ca-rd index drawer or file, and by means of which the folders are strung along said rod and held against accidental or other removal from the drawer until the rod is withdrawn.
The flap 15 is designed to be folded down over the clipping or other matter to be carried by the folder. i
The form shown in Figs. 8, 4 and 5, is constructed from the blank illustrated in Fig.
7, from a sheet of cardboard or other suit- Y able material l25, and which is rectangular in form, similar to blank 10 and is folded along the lines 2G and 27' to form the leaves 28 and 29, the latter having a flap 30 similar to flap 15 except that instead of being connected with 'the body portion of the leaf which carries it and out out atfthe ends, it is connected at the ends `and cut out at the center, as shown at 31. This cutting out along the central portion at 31 provides the ears 32 and 33 bei tween which in the cut-out portion are displayed the indicia on the sheet l()b which is designed to be arranged in the folder between the inner face of leaf 29 and the flap 30. A tongue32 is cut out of the leaf 29 along the line 29a thereof and is folded downwardly to project below the lower edge of the folder as shown in Fig. 5, and apertured at33 for the passage of the ycard index cabinet rod, not shown. In the use of this folder, when a new account is to be placed on the books, a folder is made out to'show'the name of the new customer or member placed at the upper lefthand corner of leaf 13 or 28, according to the form employed, and this name acts as an index. Vhen a payment is made at the same time when the account is opened, this usually provides all the information that is needed on the folder, all 4of the address, whichv savestime in writing. Y
The folders are indexed in the same manexcept the name and part or Y ventionwill be readilyrapparent to those skilled in the art, and it will of course be understood that changes inthe form, proportion and minor details of construction may Y ing an inturned flap along its upper edge and cut out to provide upstanding corner ears.
2. A folder of the class described comprising front and rear leaves connected at` their lower edges and one being wider than the other, the narrower leaf having an 1nturned Hap at its upper edge cut out'along the line of connection with the leafto provide an inspection opening and protecting corner ears CARL A. JETTINGER."
ner as card indexfsystems, either alphabeti- Y i cally or Vby location, or in any other way that may best suit conditions.
`The'receipts shown at 10a and 10,.may be in duplicate, triplicate,.or otherwise, ac-
cording to the system employed, the originall being tiled in the folder and operates as an ventry of the payment received. These receipts must, of course, be of a size to it the folder. f i
The cut-out portions locatedV between the i corner ears of the front leaves of the'various forms shown in the drawings, are provided so ,that the upper portion of the receipt in the folder may be visibleand which is designed ment, the amount still due, or any other matter desired. Thisconstruction renders it possible to obtain this information rapidly while 'at the same time protecting the receipts.
The flaps 15 and 30 shown in Figs. 1- and 5 may be used either to hold the entire contents of the folder in place, or for filing newspaper clippingsor similar information which is written or printed on smaller slips. f In the form shown in Fig. 1 the iap 15 not only holds the newspaper clippings (not shown) filed underV it firmly in place, but
operates as a ratchet and tends to push downI the receipts filed in the folder directly in front of Vthe flap 15 every time the folder opens partly and closes again, as will hap- Y pen during the pushing back and forth in the cabinet of they folders during the process of: locating a desired folder. WVhile the tabs 20 and 32 land 5, are preferably used, obviously they Y maybe omitted, since the folder can be used in cabinets either with or without rods.
