PATENT OFFICE.
FASTENING MEANS FOR PAPER BAGS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N0. 781,821, dated February 7, 1905.
Application filed March 28, 1904. Serial No. 200,426.
[0 (til w/mm it may concern.-
Be it known that I, H ENRY H. GLnNwRIGn'r, a citizen of the United States, residing at Morris Run, in the county of Tioga and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fastening Means for Paper Bags, of which the followingis a specification.
The object of this invention is to combine with paper bags novel fastening means whereby a salesman is enabled to close and secure a greater number of packages in a given time, and as a result both the customer and merchant are benefited.
The invention consists of a paper bag, a strip nearly encircling the bag close to its open end and pasted thereto along its longitudinal edges, leaving the intermediate portion free, a gathering-string passed loosely through the space formed between the said encircling strip and the bag, and means for securing the string to the bag at a point opposite the space formed between the ends of the strip.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of the specification, Figure 1 is a side view of a paper bag having a string attached thereto in accordance with this invention. Fig. is a section on the line 1 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a section on the line :1: .1: of Fig. 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The paper bag, which may be of any size and construction, is indicated at 1, and the string at .2. As shown, the string 2 is attached to the bag, near the mouth thereof, by means of a strip 3,which may be of paper or textile, paper being preferred. The strip 2 nearly encircles the bag and is pasted thereto along its upper and lower edges, leaving the intermediate portion 2i: free for the reception of the string 2, which is passed loosely therethrough. The
loose end portions of the string are crossed after the bag has been filled and are drawn upon in opposite directions, with the result that the open end portion of the bag is gathered, after which the end portions of the string are passed about the gathered portion and tied, as will be readily understood.
In accordance with this invention each bag is provided with a string, and the latter may be of a size and strength depending upon the capacity of the bag, thereby obviating the provision of a number of different sizes of strings usually required in stores and departments. Moreover, the operation of tying the package is greatly facilitated, as no time is lost in reaching for string and in drawing off a length thereof and placing the same about the package.
The draw-string 2 and the strip 3 are pasted to the bag at a point about opposite to the space formed between the ends of the strip, as shown at 5, to prevent displacement of the string or pulling of the string from the space formed between the strip and bag.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is In combination, a paper bag, a longitudinal strip nearly encircling the bag near its open end and pasted thereto along its longitudinal edges leaving the intermediate portion free, a string passed loosely through the space formed between the medial portion of the strip and the bag for gathering the latter near its open end, and means for securing said string to the bag at a point opposite the space formed between the extremities of the longitudinal strip, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
