HELICALLY-SEAMED LABELED FABRIC TUBING Original Fil ed Feb. 21, 1945 Patented Dec. 19, 1950 UNli'ED STATES? 'i'NT OFFICE Charles V. Brady and August F. Ottinger, St.
Louis, ll/io., assignors to Bernis Bro. Bag Company, St. Louis, Mo., a corporation of Missouri Original application February 21, 1945, Serial No. 578,976, now Patent No. 2,437,184, dated March 2, 1948. Divided and this application January 17, 1948, Serial No. 2,948
2 Claims.
This invention relates to labeled packaging material, and more particularly to helically-seamed labeled fabric tubing.
This application is a. division of our copending United States patent application Serial No. 578,976, filed February 21, 1945, for Labeled Fabric Bags and the Like, now U. S. Patent 2,437,184, issued March 2, 1948.
Among the several objects of this invention may be noted the provision of labeled fabric packaging material having a label strip attached in novel manner such as to present a substantial area of fabric for display; the provision of helieally-seamed fabric tubing wherein the label is presented as a continuous helical band encircling the tubing; the provision of labeled articles of this class from which the label may readily be removed so that the fabric thereof may be reused; and the provision of articles of this class which may be economically manufactured at a high rate of production. Other objects will be in part apparent and in part pointed out hereinafter.
The invention accordingly comprises the elements and combinations of elements, features of construction, and arrangements of parts which will be exemplified in the structures hereinafter described, and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawing, in which one of various possible embodiments of the invention is illustrated,
Fig. 1 is a plan View of a segment of a composite web from which fabric tubing of this invention are manufactured;
Fig. 2 is a plan View of a segment of helicallyseamed tubing made from the composite web of Fig. l and embodying the invention; and,
Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of a bag formed from the tubing of Fig. 2.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
Referring to the drawing, Fig. 1 shows a seg ment of the length of a composite web 5 from which labeled fabric tubing of this invention is made. This web comprises a strip of woven fabric 3 and a printed paper label strip 5 extending throughout the length of and adhesively secured to the fabric, as indicated at t. The label strip is narrower than the fabric and has printed label indicia 6 spaced at intervals throughout its length. It is adhesively secured to the fabric over the entire area of the label strip but not of the fabric. As illustrated, the label strip extends 2 centrally of the fabric, though it may be offset to one side or the other of the center line.
The composite web i is formed into the helically-seamed fabric tubing l of this invention illustrated in Fig. .2, the label strip being on the outside of the tubing. This is accomplished by forming the web into helical convolutions and securing together the adjacent side margins of the convoluted fabric 3 as by a stitched seam 9. This forms the fabric strip 3 into a fabric tube having label strip 5 extending helically around the outside of the tube throughout its length. Since the label strip is narrower than the fabric strip, and since the pitch of its helical convolutions is the same the pitch of the helical convolutions of the fabric strip, the convoluticns of the label strip are spaced apart. Thus, substantial areas of the fabric betwen the label strip convolutions are exposed.
The composite web I may be formed into the helically-seamed tubing 1 as described in either of U. S. Patents 2,260,816 or 2,314,202. If the method of the latter patent is used, the tubing is initially formed with pre-attached label strip 5 on the inside, then turned inside out to present the label strip on the outside.
Tubing I may be used as a cover for an article by pulling a length of it over the article thereby stretching it to a form lit, and tying it beyond the article at both ends. Or it may be cut up at points such as indicated by the lines L in Fig. 2 and the resulting blanks seamed at one end to form bags. Fig. 3 illustrates a bag it formed in this manner, the end seam being designated l3. It will be seen that in this bag, the label strip 5 extends helically around the bag from one of its ends to the other.
Furthermore, the end of strip 5 at the end of the bag closed by seam I3 is caught by this scam. After the bag has been filled, and its other end closed as by a seam or any other suitable closure, the other end of strip 5 is caught by this closure seam. Thus, in a filled bag, both ends of the label strip are caught by the end closures for the bag.
The invention is particularly applicable in respect to tubing and bags of so-called. dress prints made in fast colors, which, after the tubing or bag has served its purpose as a receptacle or cover, may be used for making clothing and the like. In articles of this class, the user rips open the seam or seams and, after removing the label strips, uses the fabric of the tubing or bag for making clothing or for any purpose desired. In
order that the label strip may be readily removed, it is adhered to the fabric by water-soluble adhesive. Thus, it may be easily removed simply by soaking the composite web in water.
Another important feature of the invention resulting from the fact that the label strip does not cover the entire fabric area is that not all of the interstices of the fabrics are reinforced by adhered label paper. Thus substantial areas of fabric are entirely free for intersticial deformation to give resiliently against the tube or bag contents. Thus the resulting tube or bag retains a large amount of form-fitting characteristics associated with the helically-seamed fabric of which they are composed.
Under the provision of Rule 78, reference is herewith made to applicants copending application Serial No. 646,577, filed February 9, 1946, for Labeled Bags and the Like, now U. S. Patent No. 2,437,185.
In view of the above, it will be seen that the several objects of the invention are achieved and other advantageous results attained.
As many changes could be made in the above constructions without departing from the scope of the invention, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
We claim:
1. The combination of helically seamed Woven fabric tubing made from a strip of woven fabric, and a paper label strip extending as a helix around the outside of the tubing throughout its length and secured thereto by adhesive, the helical pitch of the label strip being the same as the helical pitch of the fabric strip and the tubing seam, the width of the label strip being considerably less than the width of the fabric strip so that a substantial continuous helical area of the fabric between the convolutions of the label strip is uncovered.
2. The combination of helically seamed woven fabric tubing made from a strip of woven fabric, and a paper label strip extending as a helix around the outside of the tubing throughout its length and secured thereto by adhesive, the helical pitch of the label strip being the same as the helical pitch of the fabric strip and the tubing seam, the width of the label strip being considerably less than the width of the fabric strip, and the label strip extending generally centrally of the fabric strip, so that a substantial continuous helical area of the fabric between the convolutions of the label strip is uncovered, the helical tubing seam being entirely within this area.
