JOHN OONLEY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
WRAPPER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 536,604, dated April 2, 1895.
Application filed November 28, 1894:- Serial No. 530,241. (No model.)
To all whom. it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN CONLEY, a resident of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Wrappers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to Wrappers, and has particular reference to that class of wrappers known as foil wrappers which are extensively used in packing tobacco and other articles.
My invention has for its object to produce a wrapper which will, as far as possible, preserve the original qualities of the article which it envelops.
To this end my invention consists in the article of manufacture hereinafter set forth and claimed.
My invention will be understood by rference totheaccompanyingdrawings,wherein Figure 1 is a plan View of a wrapper made in accordance-with my invention. Fig. 2 is a section on line 2-2 thereof.
The value of foil as a wrapper lies chiefly in its preserving, as nearly as possible, the original qualities of the contents of the package which it envelops by preventing the escape of moisture from within and by excluding therefrom external air and water.
Many forms of wrapper as heretofore constructed do not fully meet the requirements of a first-class wrapper by'reason of the fact that the meeting points at each end of the wrapper are of different material, that is to say, one of the lapped ends is foil and the bottom side of the other lapped end is paper. A leaky joint will usually result from such a union, as I find from experience that when the two meeting surfaces of a wrapper are of such different materials as foil and paper, not nearly so good a joint is obtained as when both the meeting surfaces are of a soft flexible foil which will give an air-tight and waterproof joint as nearly as can be obtained through an agency of two free meeting sur faces. With these objects and difficulties in contemplation, I have constructed the Wrapper of my invention in such a fashion as to produce a structure in which the joint will be formed by the contact of foil upon foil.
To this end I take a sheet of foil 'A and a sheet of paper B and secure them together face to face in any suitable manner, as, for instance, by means of thin zones of adhesive material a, leaving at one end of the wrapper a tongue or strip 0 of foil projecting from the edge of the paper and a tongue or strip of paper D projecting from the edge of the foil.
It will be observed that when the wrapper is used to envelopa package, the projecting tongue or strip of foil 0 may be brought against a foil surface so as to form an airtight joint.
It will be quite obvious that the arrangement of the paper and foil may be modified in various particulars. For instance, I may dispense with the paper strip or tongue D and have only a foil strip or tongue 0. g I
It will be observed that by my invention I obtain a wrapper which will securely seal the package and keep its contents in their original condition.
What I claim, and desire to secure by'Letters Patent, is-
1. As a new article of manufacture a wrapper consisting of separate pieces of foil and paper united together by means of an adhesive substance applied to their meeting surfaces and having the edge of the foil projecting beyond the edge of the paper in order to form a free surface of foil for the formation of an air-tight joint, substantially as described.
2. As a new article of manufacture awrapper consisting of separate pieces of foil and paper united together by means of an adhesive substance applied to portions only of their meeting surfaces and having the edge of the foil projecting beyond the edge of the paper in order to form a free surface of foil for the formation of an air-tight joint, substantially as described.
