Description

METHOD OF PACKING SHEETS OF PAPER Filed Sept. 25, 1941 Patented Aug. 22, 1944 LlETHOD OF PACKING SHEETS OF PAPER Mauritz Oscar Strandberg, Enskede, Sweden, as-
signor to Pappercentralen i Stockholm A. 8.,
Stockholm, Sweden Application September 23, 1941, Serial No. 412,032 In Sweden September 24, 1940 2 Claims.
The present invention relates to a method of packing sheets of paper to be held in packet form in a container from which it is easy to successively remove the various sheets. The object of the invention is to eliminate the risk of tearing the sheets to pieces when removing them from the packet.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a container including the sheets. Figs. 2 and 3 are vertical sections of some sheets according to two different embodiments. Fig. 4 shows on a smaller scale the container folded out in a plane.
The reference numerals l and 2 indicate the sheets, 2 being the folded portion of the sheets. When, as in the embodiment according to Fig. 2, the sheet is folded along a transverse line situated at a distance from one end of the sheet which is considerably less than half the length of the sheet, the portion 2 will be smaller than the portion I so that the portion 2 will be accessible from the outside. However, the folded portion should preferably correspond to one third of the length of the sheet. Thus, by pressing on the portion I one can always get a space between the portions l and 2 in which the finger can be inserted so that one can grasp the edge of the portion -2 in order to remove the sheet.
Fig. 3 shows several superimposed sheets Ia, lb, lc which are'then folded so that folded portions 2a, 2b, 2c are obtained.
The packet is preferably placed in a container 3, see Figs. 1 and 4. Said container is shaped so as to obtain an opening 4 through which the edge of the folded portion 2 is accessible. The container is provided with an apertured suspension device 5 extending beyond the container. In the drawing said device consists of double apertured layers of paper glued together. If desired, the container can be completely closed but its front side should be provided with perforations corresponding to the shape of the opening 4. The closed opening is then opened when the packet is going to be used. As will be seen from the drawing the folded portions of the sheets lie on that side of each sheet which faces the opening of the container. To further facilitate the grasping of the sheets their free edges may be provided with a folding line 6. The flaps 'l of the container which are to be glued to the back of the container may be omitted. That portion of the container which forms a curved lip 8 can be obtained by slits 9 provided below and/ or above the longitudinal ends of the aperture, said slits extending approximately as the dot and dash lines in Fig. 1. By so slitting the container, portions of the latter lying adjacent the opening 4 may be folded outwardly and thereby reduce the possibility of the sheets being torn when withdrawn from the container.
The advantage of the present packet over the old packets is manifest. The packet is particularly intended for toilet paper, but of course it is suitable also for other kinds of paper.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a method of packing sheets of paper, which are particularly intended as toilet paper, folding superimposed rectangular sheets along a transverse folding line situated at a distance from one end of the sheet which is considerably less than half the length of the sheet, placing the folded sheets on one another with the folded portion alternately at one end and the other of the packet, the folded portion of alternate sheets being located at opposite sides of the unfolded portion of the intervening sheet the longer portions lying on the shorter portions of the adjacent sheet and the maximum thickness of each folded sheet not exceeding twice the thickness of the material of the sheet, the packet thus obtained being packed in a suitable way.
2. In a method of packing sheets of paper arranged in groups, folding superimposed rectangular groups of sheets along a transverse folding line situated at a distance from one end of the group of sheets which is considerably less than half of the length thereof, placing the folded groups of sheets on one another with the folded portions alternately at one end and the other end of the packet, the folded portions of the alternate groups of sheets being located at opposite sides of the unfolded portions of the intervening groups of sheets, the folding lines of the sheets of each group being arranged at different points so that the ends of the sheets of each group project one beyond the other.
