Definitions

  • This invention relates to continuous envelope assemblies comprising a carrier web to which a series of envelopes are spot-attached, as for example, by dots of adhesive.
  • tear-terminating means may take the fonn of straight slits extending transversely of the line of feed of the web, interrupted slits formed by perforations,
  • FIG. 1 is a fragmentary plan view of an envelope assembly I embodying the principles of the invention
  • FIG. 215 a In pcrspecuve ofa p0 on ofa similar as described herein may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the following claims.
  • FIG. 3 and enlarged FIGS. 4 and 5, are detail views of one machine which may be used to separate the envelopes from the carrier web; and 1 FIG. 6 is a composite of several examples of the novel tear stopping features. I 1
  • acarrier web is indicated at A and is provided with a series of feed holes A along each margin for being shredded away and constituting an undesirable hangon" which mars the appearance of the envelope and may interfere with the proper adhesion of the fiap.
  • hang-on may stretch further than as it is illustrated in FIG. 2, and this deleterious feature occurs frequently whether the envelopes are separated from the web 7 by hand or mechanically.
  • FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 of the drawings where the detacher apparatus, like the one which is the subject of the above mentioned application, is indicated generally by the reference numeral 10.
  • One of the side frames upon which the operative parts are supported is shown at 13, and pivotally mounted thereon as at 12 is a tray 11 for collecting the separated envelopes.
  • a stop pin 14 limits the, downward movement of the tray.
  • the stripper bar or plate 16 is also' pivoted at 12 and is positioned for operation by the stop pin 45.
  • the assembly is threaded into the machine and passes'along a platform 22.
  • the carrier web A is guided around the curved edge 33 of platform 22 and between the pull rolls 3! and 32 while the envelopes are fed, by means not shown but adequately disclosed in the application referred to, onto the stripper plate 16,
  • an interruption D in the fibrous structure of the web is provided closely adjacent to each of the glue spots C, on the ,upstream" side thereof in relation to the movement of the assembly.
  • These interruptions may take various forms, for example the straight out D in example I of the composite FIG. 6. Or they may be made as a line of perforations as at D in example ll; Circular punched openings D in example III; or a modified figure such as the crescent D in example IV.
  • the web material may be made of paper stock made more liable to shredding or delaminating than the envelope stock; or contrariwise, inconspicuous slits or fiber interruptions D may be applied to the envelopes themselves adjacent the junction spots C.
  • the envelopes B which together with the web A, form the continuous envelope assembly, are detachably secured to the web by means of the spots of adhesive C, which may be distributed in any desired pattern with respect to the configuration of the envelopes.
  • the spots of adhesive C may be distributed in any desired pattern with respect to the configuration of the envelopes.
  • the particular distribution illustrated is a preferred one and confonns generally to those of the above mentioned application and patent, whereby the spots will ultimately be covered by the envelope flaps when the envelopes are sealed.
  • FIG. 2 there is illustrated what usually happens when the envelopes are pulled from the web after they are imprinted or otherwise treated.
  • Numerals C and C indicate the separated portions of the original 'spot C, a portion of the paper of which the web is composed being delaminated and the torn layer C.
  • a continuous envelope assembly comprising a carrier web of fibrous material such as paper or the like, and a series of envelopes disposed flatwise along said web and secured thereto, said assembly adapted to be passed through a detacher machine in a given linear direction, the means of tioned immediately to the rear of one of said dots of adhesive as related to such direction of movement, said slits serving to block the continuity of the fibrous structure of the web, so as to provide a stop for any delamination or shredding of the web during passage therethrough the detacher machine.
