Definitions

  • This invention relates to gramophone record sleeves.
  • a Gramophone record sleeve having four edges, a front and a back, a spine along each of its four edges and a closure flap, the sleeve being formed from a blank for the front, and a blank for the back which has integral therewith the four spines, one of the spines having integral therewith the closure ap, and the other three spines having integral therewith portions which are overlapped internally of the sleeve by side margins of the blank for the front of the sleeve and are secured thereto, the overlap portions having reinforcement portions integral therewith which are folded back at least on to the overlap portions and are secured thereto, the overlap portions being mitred so that their adjacent ends abut, the reinforcement portions being shorter than the overlap portions which are shorter than the spines, and the adjacent ends of adjacent spines of non-opening edges being joined by material which is folded into the interior of the sleeve.
  • a blank for one part of a Gramophone record sleeve having a substantially square portion to form one face of the sleeve, a spine portion defined by fold lines along each side of the square and integral therewith, a closure iiap integral with one of the spine portions, an overlap portion integral with each of the other spine portions to overlap the side margins of the other face of the sleeve to be formed by a further blank, a reinforcement portion separated from each of the overlap portions by a scored line, the corners of the blank remote from the closure flap being cut off along a substantially straight line at substantially 45 to the edges of the square at the ends of the outer edges of the spine portions so that the adjacent ends of adjacent overlap portions will be mitred together on folding the blank at 90 on the fold lines.
  • Each corner of the blank may be cut off along a substantially straight line at substantially 45 to the edges of the square at the ends of the outer edges of the spine portions, the triangle formed between the adjacent ends of the spine portions and the 45 corner line being removed at the ends of the closeure flap.
  • a method of forming a Gramophone record sleeve from a blank as defined above comprising first folding the blank at 180 along the scored lines separating the reinforcement portions from the overlap portions, then folding the blank at 90 along each of the fold lines defining the spine portions so that the overlap portions lie Ace parallel to the square portion of the blank and are spaced therefrom the width of the spines, and the adjacent ends of adjacent overlap portions abut, and tucking into the sleeve the triangular portions between the adjacent ends of spine portions prior to completing the second folding operation.
  • the reinforcement portions may be wider than the overlap portions so as also to reinforce the spines or so as also to reinforce both the spines and the side margins of the square portion of the blank opposed to the overlap portions.
  • FIGURE l shows a blank having integral spine, overlap and reinforcement portions and a closure flap
  • FIGURE 2 shows the blank of FIGURE l, after a first folding operation
  • FIGURE 3 shows the blank of FIGURE l after a further folding operation
  • FIGURE 4 is a vertical section through the completed sleeve
  • FIGURE 5 is a detail of a corner of the blank shown in FIGURE 3,
  • FIGURE 6 shows a modification of the blank shown in FIGURE l
  • FIGURE 7 shows the modification after the lirst folding operation as shown in FIGURE 2.
  • the blank 10 shown in FIGURE 1 comprises a square portion 11 which in the finished sleeve will form one of the faces, and integral edge portions 12, 13, 14 and 15.
  • the edge portions 12, 13 and 14 each comprise a spine portion 16 defined by fold lines 16A and 16B, an overlap portion 17 defined by the fold line 16B and a scored line 17A, and a reinforcement portion shown -generally at 18 and separated from the overlap portion by the scored line 17A and comprising three individual reinforcement portions 18A, 18B and 18C, the portion 18B being defined by scored lines 18D and 18E.
  • the edge portion 15 comprises a similar spine portion 16 dehned by two fold lines, and a closure flap 19.
  • the three edge portions 12, 13 and 14 form the three closed edges of the record sleeve, the edge portion 15 being provided at the openable edge.
  • Each corner of the blank 10 is cut off along a straight line 20 at 45 to the edges of the square portion 11.
  • the location of the lines 20 at the corners between the edge portions 12 and 13 and between the edge portions 13 and 14 is such as to leave the spine portions of the same length as the adjacent side of the square 11 and with a triangular portion 21 therebetween remaining.
  • the location of the line 20 is the same, but the triangular portion between the adjacent ends of the spines 16 is cut out.
  • FIGURE 2 the blank 10 is shown with the reinforcement portions 18 folded down along the scored line 17A with the reinforcement portions 18A, 18B and 18C coinciding with the overlap portion 17, the spine portion 16 and the side margin of the square 11 respectively.
  • the scored lines 18E and 18D coincide with the fold lines 16A and 16B respectively.
  • FIGURE 3 the edge portions 12, 13and 14 are folded from the position shown in FIGURE 2 by first folding through about the coincident lines 18E and 16A to bring the spine portions 16 and the portions 17, 18A and 18B at right angles to the square portion 11 and the portion 18C, and by folding the edge portion through 3 90 about the line 16A and then folding the closure ap 19 down through a further 90 about the line 16B- Whilst the first folding operation in the transition from the FIGURE 2 form to the FIGURE 3 form is being carried out the two triangular portions 21 are pushed inwards so that when the second folding operation is carried out these triangular portions are ⁇ folded in two and project into the interior of the sleeve.
  • a further blank 22 to form the other face of the sleeve and in the form of a square of substantially the same size as the square portion 11 is then secured by adhesive to the portions 17 of the blank 10.
  • FIGURE 4 A section through the completed sleeve is shown in FIGURE 4. It will be seen how the reinforcing portion 18 has been folded into U section so that the overlapped portion 17, the spine portion 16 and the side margin of the square portion 11 are reinforced by the portions 18A, 18B and 18C respectively.
  • FIGURE 5 shows a corner of the blank 10 just before it has been folded into the form shown in FIGURE 3. It will be seen how a triangular portion 21 folds in two and projects into the interior of the sleeve. When the sleeve is completed by application of the further blank 22 these inwardly projecting portions 21 seal off the corners of the sleeve and also strengthen them.
  • the reinforcement portions 18B and 18C could be omitted.
  • FIGURE 6 shows the top left hand corner of a blank 110 similar to that shown in FIGURE 1 except that the reinforcement portion, shown generally at 118, is longer.
  • the top right hand portion of the blank has a similarly extended reinforcement portion.
  • the two bottom corners of the blank are the same as shown in FIGURE l.
  • the same numerals will be used for parts identical to those in FIGURE 1.
  • the overlap portion 17, the fold lines 16A and 16B and the scored line 17A are the same as in the blank 10 of FIG- URE l.
  • the overlap reinforcement portion 118A, the spine reinforcement portion 118B and the reinforcement portion 118C correspond to the portions 18A. 18B and 18C respectively of FIGURE l.
  • the fold lines 118D and 118B correspond to the fold lines 18D and 18E respectivelv of FIGURE 1.
  • each top corner being cut off along a straight line at 45 to the edges of the square 11 which extends right across the corner, this 45 line 120 terminates at the scored line 17A.
  • the top end of the portion 118A is cut off along a line 120A at 90 to the line 120.
  • the top of the spine reinforcement portion 118B is cut o at right angles at 120B, and the portion 118C is cut off along a line 120C parallel with the line 120.
  • FIGURE 7 When the reinforcement portion 118 is folded down along the scored line 17A the result is seen in FIGURE 7, which may be compared with FIGURE 2. As will be seen, the overlap portion 17 and the spine 16 are reinforced to their ends. Thus, although the knife form for producing the top corners is somewhat more complicated than for the blank 10, the top corners, i.ethe ends of the openable edge, of the completed sleeve are stiffer.
  • a Gramophone record sleeve having four edges, a front and a back, a spine along each of its four edges and a closure flap, the sleeve comprising a blank for the front and a blank for the back which has integral therewith the four spines, one of the spines having integral therewith the closure flap, and the other three spines having integral therewith portions which are overlapped internally of the sleeve by side margins of the blank for the front of the sleeve and are secured thereto, the overlap portions having reinforcement portions integral therewith which are folded back at least on to the overlap portions and are secured thereto, the two corners of the blank for the back remote from the closure flap each being cut olf along a single substantially straight line at 45 to the spines, and passing through the outer corners of the adjacent spines, to leave a triangular portion between the ends of the adjacent spines at each of the two corners, so that the overlap portions are mitred and so that their ends abut, the triangular portions of the blank for the back being folded into
  • a blank for one part of a Gramophone record sleeve comprising a substantially square portion to form one face of the sleeve, a spine portion along each side of the square, said spine being defined by supstantially parallel fold lines, the ends of each of said spine portions being defined by the fold line between the square portion and cach of the adjacent spine portions, a closure ap integral with one of the spine portions and defined by one of said fold lines and the edge of the blank, an overlap portion integral with each of the other spine portions for overlapping side margins of a further blank constituting the other face of the sleeve and defined by one of said fold lines and a substantially parallel score line, a reinforcement portion separated from each of the overlap portions by said scored line, each of the corners of the blank remote from the closure ap being cut off along a substantially straight line at substantially 45 to said fold lines, said line passing through points dened by the fold lines on the sides of said scores remote from the square portion and the ends of the spines to leave a triangular portion between
  • each corner of the blank at the ends of the closure flap is cut off along a substantially straight line at substantially 45 to said fold lines, said lines passing through points defined by the fold lines on the side of said scores remote from the square portion and the ends of the spines, the triangle formed between the adjacent ends of the spine portions and the 45 corner line being removed at the ends of the closure ap.
