Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 24, 1917.
Application filed June 21, 1916. Serial No. 104,860.
To all whom it mag/concern:
Be it known that l, .\.BIL\IIA1['DEUTSCII- msrnn, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York city, in the county of New. York and State of New York, have in ented certain new and useful Improvements in Envelops, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to mailing envclops, particularly of the type adapted for use in' mailing matter at third class maiimatter rates.
One object of the invention is to provide an envelop of this character in which the contents is securely held.
Another ob ect is to provide an envelop of this character which has the appearance of a sealed envelop and yet can be readily opened for inspecting the contents as required for third class mail matter.
A further object is to provide an envelop which may be made up at small cost and is readily manipulated.
The various further objects and advantages will more fully appear from the detailed description and the features of novelty'will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings illustrating the invention,
Figure l is a development of the blank from which the envelop is formed.
Fig. 2 is a perspective View of the envelop showing the manner in which it is folded and assembled.
Fig. is a rear view assembled.
Fig. 4c is a face view in-perspective illustrating the manner in which the slot' is opened to insert or remove the contents.
Fig. 5 is a face view of the envelop as sealed for mailing.
Fig. 6 is a similar view of a modified form with a straight instead of curved slot.
Fig. 7 is a development of a blank illustrating a further modified form.
Fig. 8 is a rear view of the assen'ibled envelop made up from the blank illustrated in Referring in detail to the (.lIZLWll'lg, par ticularly to Figs. 1 t0 5, the envelop is formed with the face portion 10 and back portion 11 and the gummcd flaps 19., 13 and 14 formed preferably on the face portion to unite the same with the back portion. Formed in the face portion 10, adjacent to of the envelop as entirely free and one end thereof, is a slot 15 of preferably curved contour, and from the adjacent end of the back portion 11 extendsa flap 16 which is tucked into the interior of the envelop when the flap 12 is pasted over the back portion, as clearly appears from Figs. 2 and 4.
When the envelop is made up, the flap 16 is concealed in the interior of the envelop and serves the function of retaining the con tents when inserted in the envelop. Thus, when it is desired to insert the matter in the envelop, pressure is applied to the longitudinal edges 17, 18, (Fig. 4), opening the slot 15. The matter may be then readily inserted through the slot and the concealed flap l6 folded ther'eovcr in the interior of the envelop. If desired, cealed flap 16 may be slot, forming a lock for contents.
I prefer to use a curved son that the envelop may opened. However, if desired, a straight slot 15 may be used as shown in Fig. 6.
In the modified form illustrated in Figs. 7 and 8, the slot 15 is disposed in the back portion '11 and the flap 16 is folded back on itself at the interior of the envelop adapted to pass through the slot 15 as in the other form described. The gnmmed flap 12 is preferably provided with the extensions 12 at the extremities thereof forming reinforcements for the end of the slot 15, thus preventing the tearing of the paper. In this construction, the face portion 10 is left smooth for the addressing.
It will thus be seen that I have provided an envelop which may be used for sending mail at third class mail rates and, at the same time, the contents is securely held in the envelop and may be readily inserted and removed. The envelop is inexpensive to make and efiicicnt in use.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. An envelop comprising a face portion and a back portion, a slot formed inone of said portions, and a normally concealed flap freely disposed at the interior of the envelop opposite said slot, whereby the matter may be inserted into the envelop and retained by the concealed flap.
An envelopcomprising and a back portion, a slot formed in one of passed through the securely holdingthe slot for the reabe more readily moreover, the con- .110 a face portion the interior of the envelop from one of the lateral edges of one of said portions, there being a slot formed in one of said portions in juxtaposition with said flap, gummed flaps on the edges of said portions sealing the edges of the envelop about the entire perimeter of the same, said first mentioned flap being of a size to pass frointhe interior of the envelop through the slot so as to lock the contents of the envelop within the same.
4:. An envelop comprising a face portion, a back portion, gumrncd flaps extending from the edges of the face portion, a flap extending freely from one of the edges of the back portion within the envelop and normally concealed therein, said back portion being formed with a slot adjacent said flap through which slot the flap may .pass to the exterior of the envelop to lock the contentsv of the envelop within the same.
5. An envelop comprising a face portion, a back portion, gummed flaps extending from the edges of the face portion to seal the envelop about its perimeter, a flap extending from one of the edges -of the back portion .slot being formed with portions passing across the ends of the slot to reinforce the material thereabout.
Signed at New York city, in the county of New York, and State of New York, this 15th day of June A. D. 1916.
