Description
July 18, 1939. L. RECHTSCHAFFEN FOLDED SHIRT AND BAND HOLDER THEREFOR TO ELIMINATE PINS Filed Dec. 29, 1957 lNVENTOR 4 0w: EEC/1 as 0/4 FFE/V ATTORNEY Patented July 18, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SHIRT AND BAND HOLDER THERE- 4 Claims.
This invention relates to folded shirts and band holders therefor. It is particularly directed to a laundered shirt folded on a cardboard and to an improved band to hold the shirt in folded condition on the cardboard.
An object of this invention is to provide an improved and economical band for holding a laundered shirt in folded condition on a paper cardboard to eliminate necessity for the usual pins which keep the shirt pinned around the cardboard.
A further object of this invention is to provide a strong and durable shirt band of the character described, which shall be easy to apply, and yet practical and eiiicient to a high degree in use. v
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is shown one of the various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention:
Fig. l is a front perspective view of a laundered shirt folded on a cardboard, and held in folded position by a band embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of my improved band before the ends thereof are pasted together around the shirt.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, l0 designates a shirt folded around a flat cardboard ll. As is well known, laundered shirts are usually folded around a rectangular cardboard for delivery.
As shown in the drawing, the upper portion of the main body l3 of the shirt is first folded around the cardboard, and then the bottom of tail portion I4 is folded upwardly around the bottom edge of the cardboard, as at l5, onto the back of the cardboard.
In accordance with my invention, improved means is provided to hold the shirt in folded condition on the cardboard. To this end there is provided a shirt band l6 made of a strip of paper or any other suitable flexible sheet material. The same comprises a strip of paper I! of uniform width, formed with longitudinal inwardly extending slits l8, forming a pair of free end portions I9 at each end of the central portion of the strip.
The free end portions of one or both ends may be provided with coatings of paste 20, whereby to paste together one pair of free end portions to the other pair in overlapping relation.
The method of applying the band I6 to the folded shirt will now be described;
The central portion of the band is placed over the front of the body portion l3 of the shirt. The upper ends l9 may then be folded inwardly into overlapping relation around the back of the body 13 and cardboard [I and pasted together, as at El. The lower pair of end portions [9 may then be folded inwardly around the folded tail portion M of the shirt and pasted together in overlapping relation, as at 22. The folded shirt will thus be firmly held on the cardboard l l, and unfolding of the shirt is hence effectively prevented.
It will now be understood that I have provided an inexpensive, practical and efficient band, which is easy to apply to a folded shirt on a cardboard, and which will hold the shirt firmly in folded condition on the cardboard.
My invention eliminates the necessity for applying pins for pinning various parts of the shirt together, thus saving in labor, expense and time and extending the life of the shirt by reason of doing away with the destructive pin holes which result from applying the pins to the shirt.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiment above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A shirt band comprising a strip of paper, the ends of said strip being slit inwardly longitudinally, to form a pair of free end portions at each end of the strip, and means to paste one pair of said free end portions to the other pair.
2. A shirt band comprising a strip of paper of uniform width, the ends of said strip being split inwardly longitudinally to form a pair of free end portions at each end of the strip, at least one of said pair of free end portions being provided with a coating of adhesive for attachment to the other pair of free end portions.
3. A folded shirt package comprising a cardboard, a shirt having a body portion folded around the cardboard, the tail portion of the shirt being folded upwardly around the bottom edge of the cardboard onto the back of the shirt body and cardboard, and a shirt band to hold the shirt in folded condition on the cardboard comprising an elongated strip of paper of uniform width, the outer ends of said strip being slit inwardly longitudinally to form a pair of strip ends on opposite sides of the central portion of the band, said central portion of the band contacting the front of the shirt body, a pair of strip ends on opposite sides of said central portion being folded inwardly around the body of the shirt and cardboard and pasted to each other, and the other pair of strip ends on opposite sides of the body portion being folded inwardly around the shirt tail and pasted to each other.
4. A shirt band comprising a strip of paper of uniform width, the ends of said strip being slit inwardly, longitudinally to form a pair of free end portions at each end of the strip and means to paste one pair of said free end portions to the other pair.
LOUIS RECHTSCHAFFEN.
