Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide sealed documents containing much information to be transmitted to individuals. CONSTITUTION:Long form paper made up in such shape wherein a number of form papers to be addressed to specified persons, each of which is made up by arranging in the longitudinal direction an upper area of an envelope having an address column, a lower area of the envelope and an information area, are arranged in the longitudinal direction is prepared. Then the long form paper is cut successively into a number of individual form papers with a cutter while being drawn forward, and each of the individual form papers 33 is folded up with a first folding device 50 so that its information area can be folded up in zigzag. Then the folding-up is made further with a second folding device 60 so that the information area can be laid on top of the lower area of the envelope, and the folding-up is made furthermore with a third folding device 65 so that the information area can be inserted between the upper area of the envelope and the lower area of the envelope. Then sealing-up is made with a sealing-up device 71 and thereby a sealed document containing much information to be transmitted can be prepared.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, at banks, securities companies, insurance companies, etc., personal information such as balance notices, transaction notices, contract details, etc. has been mailed to customers. The form 1 shown in FIG. 8 is usually used to record the personal information and mail it to the customer. This form 1 has marginal punches 2 on both sides, two longitudinal fold lines (longitudinal perforations) 3 in the center, and lateral perforations 4 for cutting at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction. And horizontal perforation 4
The necessary format is printed so that the area sandwiched between is the personal-addressed form 5. This individual form 5 has a fold line 3
Is divided into an address area 5a and information recording areas 5b and 5c. This form 1 has address information 6a, personal information 6b, 6c, etc. recorded by an output device of a computer, and is then set in a letter-sealing device to create a letter addressed to each individual. That is, in the letter-sealing device, the form 1 is pulled out and folded in three in a Z shape along the two fold lines 3 and 3, the marginal punch 2 portions at both ends are removed, and then along the horizontal perforations 4. By cutting, the individual address sheet 5 is separated, and the pressure roller is pressed by the press roller to activate the pressure-sensitive adhesive applied in advance, and the individual address sheet is folded in three as shown in FIG. The four sides of the form 5 are adhered and sealed.

However, if such a method is adopted, it is necessary to match a plurality of forms to each individual, and there is a high possibility that a matching error or a missing page will occur. In order to prevent this matching error, it is necessary to prepare more detectors than necessary, which causes a problem in that the apparatus becomes expensive and the processing speed becomes slow. In addition, there is a problem that an envelope must be prepared separately from the form for mailing, and a jam easily occurs when the form is put in the envelope.

As described above, according to the present invention, the envelope upper surface area and the envelope lower surface area for forming an envelope and the transmission information of a plurality of subjects are recorded on each individual address form of the long form recorded by the output device. Since the information area is arranged in the longitudinal direction, it is possible to record the address of an individual and a lot of information of a plurality of subjects for that individual. Next, when creating a sealed letter from a long form after recording the necessary items,
Unnecessary parts of the personal address form are removed from the long form, then the long form is pulled out and separated for each individual form, the information area of the individual form is folded, and then the information area is envelope upper surface area. Then, the flaps on the three sides of the envelope upper surface region are folded and adhered on the envelope lower surface region overlapping with the envelope upper surface region, and sealed. As a result, a sealed letter is created. here,
What is put in one sealed letter is the information area of one continuous individual form, so there is no need to collate multiple forms as in the past, which is extremely easy. You won't get the wrong information in one envelope. Furthermore, since a part of the personal-addressed form is folded to form an envelope, it is not necessary to use another envelope, and the operation of putting the form in the envelope is unnecessary, and trouble such as jamming does not occur. Thus, it is possible to easily create an envelope containing the communication information of multiple subjects.

The personal address form 33 has flaps 37a on three sides,
An envelope upper surface area 33a having an address field for recording the address A, an envelope lower surface area 33b, and an information area capable of recording at least transmission information of a plurality of subjects to an individual recorded in the address field. 33c to 33j are arranged in the longitudinal direction. It should be noted that the chain double-dashed line 38, which indicates the boundary of each region in the drawing, simply indicates the position of the fold. A horizontal perforation may be formed at the position indicated by the chain double-dashed line 38 to facilitate folding. In the envelope upper surface area 33a and the envelope lower surface area 33b,
A perforation 39 for opening is formed. Information area 33c
In this embodiment, personal information B, C, and D are recorded in .about.33j, respectively, but the contents can be changed as appropriate. Further, advertisements such as leaflets and pamphlets may be printed in part of the information areas 33c to 33j.

As described above, according to the method and apparatus of the present invention, the envelope upper surface region having the address column, the envelope lower surface region,
By using a long form in which an individual form in which the information area for recording the transmission information of multiple subjects is arranged in the longitudinal direction is connected, the individual address is recorded on the individual form and much information of multiple subjects for the individual is recorded. While pulling out the long form, it is separated into individual individual forms, and each individual form is folded so that the information area is sandwiched between the envelope upper area and the envelope lower area, and the envelope By folding and adhering the flaps formed on the three sides of the upper surface region to each other, a sealed letter containing a lot of information can be created.
At this time, since the information areas accommodated in the envelope are continuous, there is no need for complicated matching as in the conventional example shown in FIG. It can be transmitted and does not require expensive matching equipment. Further, since the information areas are sent in a continuous state, it is possible to record the information of the same subject in a wide area and it is easy to read. Further, since a part of the personal-addressed form is folded into an envelope, the operation of putting the form in another envelope is unnecessary, and various effects such as occurrence of trouble such as jamming can be achieved.
