Application May 16, 1956, Serial No. 585,343
1 Claim. (Cl. 229-72) This invention relates to a banking envelope. It is the present custom with many banks to furnish a drive-in service where the customer drives up to the tellers window to make a deposit. lt is essential that the services be carried on rapidly so as to facilitate the passage of the cars past the bank window.
The principal object of this invention is to provide a bank deposit envelope which will be more particularly designed for use at drive-in windows, and which will provide a pocket for currency, a pocket for coins, a separable deposit slip, and a safetyap for retaining the money in the pockets so that the depositor can simply deliver the envelope to the tellers counter. This enables the teller to make a rapid check of the cash so that he may quickly enter the amount deposited in the depositors pass book, and dismiss the depositor. The envelope with the attached deposit slip is forwarded to the bookkeeping department for nal checking after which the deposit slip is separated from the envelope for final record.
Another object of the invention is to so construct the above-described envelope that it may be economically formed from a single unitary paper blank.
A further object is to provide a bank envelope for receiving cash and currency which will be provided with a guide tab to facilitate the insertion of the currency and coins, and which will be provided with a protective ilap to retain the currency and coins in place both before and after depositing in the bank.
Other objects and advantages reside in the detail construction of the invention, which is designed for simplicity, economy, and efficiency. These will become more apparent from the following description.
In the following detailed description of the invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawing which forms a part hereof. Like numerals refer to like parts in all views of the drawing and throughout the description.
In the drawing:
Fig. l illustrates the rear face of a paper blank from which the improved envelope is formed;
Fig. 2 is a perspective view, illustrating the completely formed envelope; and
Fig. 3 is a crosssection through the envelope in its folded position.
The improved envelope is formed from a single integral paper blank shaped, as illustrated in Fig. l, to provide a front portion and a back portion 11 joined by a scored fold line 12. A safety ap 13 is formed along one side of the front portion 10 and is joined thereto by means of a second scored fold line 14.
The back portion 10 is provided at one of its extremities with an end flap 1S which is joined to the back portion along a third scoredfold line 16, and provided with a rst adhesive band 17. The back portion 11 is provided at its other extremity with a coin pocket ap 18 joined thereto along a fourth scored fold line 19 and provided with a second adhesive band 20 and a third adhesive band 21.
The coin pocket ap 18 is shaped along its upper edge 2,855,138 Patented Oct. 7, 1958 ICC to form a guide tab 22 which is joined thereto along a fth scored fold line 23. The paper blank is shaped to form a deposit slip 24 along the side of the back portion 11 opposite the front portion 10. The deposit slip 24 is joined to the back portion 11 by means of a perforated tear line 25.
The width of the front portion 10 corresponds to the width of the back portion 11. The end ap 15 is tapered at its extremities so that it may readily fold forwardly over the front of the back portion 11. The lower extremity of the coin pocket flap' 18 is tapered, as indicated at 26, so that it will fold readily over the front face of the back portion 11. The upper extremity of the coin pocket ap 18 is preferably straight so that it will substantially align with the tear line 25 when the pocket ap is folded forwardly over the back flap 11.
The length of the front and back portions 10 and 11 is suicient to exceed the length of conventional pieces of currency and standard bank checks. The deposit slip 24 corresponds in length to the conventional deposit slip length used in banking, and it is of less length than the front and back portions 10 and 11.
The deposit slip 24 is imprinted on its front face, as indicated at 27, to provide the usual information and item columns conventionally employed on a bank deposit slip. The safety ap 13 preferably carries suitable wording such as For Your Protection tuck this Safety Flap in over your currency and checks.
To assemble the envelope, the ap 15 and the coin pocket ap 18 are folded forwardly (downwardly in Fig. 1) against the back portion 11. The front portion 10 is then folded forwardly (downwardly in Fig. l) along the fold lines 12 and against the folded flaps 15 and 18, and adhesively attached to the flap 15 along the adhesive bands 17 and to the pocket ap 18 along the adhesive bands 20 and 21. The envelope then presents the appearance shown in Fig. 2 and provides a currency pocket 28 extending the full length of the envelope, and a coin pocket 29 extending only partially of the length of the envelope. The tab 22 projects upwardly between the two pockets and forms a guide to assist the user in sliding currency and checks into the pocket 28, and coins into the coin pocket 29.
In use,l the deposit slip 24 is filled out by the depositor in the usual manner. The coin pocket tab 22 is then folded downwardly over the currency and checks and the safety flap 13 is then folded over both the currency pocket 28 and the coin pocket 29 and is tucked into the former, as shown in Fig. 3, to safely retain the contents of both pockets in place. The deposit slip 24 can then be folded over either the front or the back of the envelope along the tear line 25.
When making a deposit, the depositor drops the envelope upon the tellers counter. The teller quickly checks the contents with the deposit slip, enters the amount deposited in the pass book, and sets the envelope, with its attached deposit slip, aside. At intervals the envelopes will be emptied and the deposit slips severed therefrom along the tear line 25 for use in the bookkeeping department of the bank.
While a specific form of the improvement has been described and illustrated herein, it is desired to be understood that the same may be varied, within the scope of the appended claim, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed and desired secured by Letters Patent is:
A bank deposit envelope comprising a rectangular front wall portion, a rectangular rear wall portion connected at its lower edge to the lower edge of the front wall portion, a first flap unitary with one end of the rear wall portion and being disposed between the front and rear 3 wall portions, said ap being of relatively small dimension lengthwise of the front and rear wall portions, a second tlap unitary with the opposite end of said rear wall portion and being disposed between said front and rear wall portions, said second ap extending to approximately the vertical center line of said front and rear wall portions, said front wall portion having its opposite end portions adhesively secured to said rst and second ilaps, the inner end of said second Hap being adhesively secured to said front wall portion in a vertical line intermediate the opposite ends of the front wall portion, thereby providing a currency receiving pocket of dimensions substantially equal to the length and width of said front and rear wall portions, and a coin receiving pocket whose opposite side walls are defined by said second ap and a corresponding area of said rear wall portion, said second flap being provided with a genuinely rectangular tab whose one edge is foldably secured to the adjacent edge of said second ap, said tab normally projecting vertically upwardly and above the mouths of the said pockets for guiding coins into the coin receiving pocket, a flap projecting from the upper edge of said front wall portion and being foldable with said tab into said currency receiving pocket, and a rectangular deposit slip having one edge thereof foldably secured to the upper edge of said rear wall portion.
