  • the present invention relates generally to improvements in envelope processing machines and it relates particularly to an improved machine for the production of selfopening envelopes.
  • Envelopes are conventionally produced by successively advancing from a stack thereof precut envelope blanks and successively forming score lines delineating the bottom, side and closure flaps from the envelope front panel, applying adhesive to the inside outer border of the closure flap, drying the adhesive, inwardly folding the side flaps, applying adhesive to the exposed inner borders of the side flaps, folding the bottom flap to overlie the side flaps and adhere thereto, and then closing the closure flaps and stacking the finished envelopes.
  • the envelopes are to be of the selfopening type provided with tear strips
  • the application of the tear strips is conventionally a separate operation in which the envelopes are longitudinally advanced, the closure flaps opened, the tear strips applied longitudinally and adhered to the open envelopes along the closure flap fold line and the envelopes closed and stacked.
  • the conventional and heretofore proposed procedures and equipment for producing self-opening envelopes possess numerous drawbacks and disadvantages.
  • the self-opening envelopes are considerably more expensive to produce than conventional envelopes and are frequently lacking in uniformity and quality.
  • the equipment employed is additionally expensive and highly space consuming and the procedures highly labor consuming so that the conventional equipment leaves much to be desired.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved machine for producing self-opening envelopes.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to provide an improved mechanism for applying tear strips to envelopes.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a machine of the above nature characterized by its efficiency, reliability, ruggedness, low cost of operation and high versatility and adaptability.
  • the present invention contemplates the provision of a machine for producing self-opening envelopes comprising means for feeding and longitudinally advancing precut envelope blanks in longitudinally spaced relationship along a predetermined path, the blanks including a front panel transversely spaced side flaps and longitudinally spaced bottom and closure flaps, means for applying score lines to successive blanks delineating the flaps from said front panel, means for folding the bottom and side flaps into border overlapping relationship and applying an adhesive to the confronting faces of said borders, means for advancing a tear strip transversely across and above the envelope path, means for depressing and severing a predetermined length of tear strip into engagement with an underlying envelope proximate the line delineating the front panel from the closure flap, and means for applying an adhesive to the inside outer border of the closure flap.
  • the mechanism for applying the tear strips to successive envelopes advantageously includes an endless chain supported and advanced across and over the path of the envelopes and includes regularly spaced outwardly downwardly inclined fingers terminating in notched ends for releasably engaging the continuous tear strip and conveying it across the envelope path.
  • Transversely spaced transfer arms one of which includes a cutting blade, are synchronized with the tear strip transport and the envelope feed for cutting the tear strip and transferring it to an underlying envelope.
  • a mechanism applies adhesive to the tear strip along discontinuous lengths so as to leave the tear strip ends as applied to the envelopes free of adhesive.
  • the improved machine produces self-opening envelopes in a continuous procedure without the necessity of separate handling in the production of the envelopes and the application of the tear strips and is efficient, rugged, reliable and highly versatile.
