.This invention relates to receptacles of sheet material, moreparticularly to paper envelopes with "carrying attachments fastened thereto. Itisprimarily concerned with paper envelopes having-attachments of card board fastened to them for the purpose of carrying the envelope. Of courseit will be understood that the invention-in its broader phases is not limited to such use.
It is an object of the presentinvention to provide an ordinary envelope with a pair of carrying attachments, such that when they register with each other the envelope will be locked shut. i
It is a further object to provide one of the carrying attachments with means to guard the edge of the'envelope, and to reinforce the handle and the top oftheenvelope. Another object is to provide an envelope with a long flap reinforced by one of the carryingattachments which has a projecting tongue on it to insure positive locking of the envelope. 7
The above and various other features and objects of the invention will now be described more in detail with'particular referenceto the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 11 is a plan view of the front 'ofan envelope having its flap open, with an eminvention attached thereto; v J
Figure 2 is a plan View of the backof the envelope shown in Figure 1; v
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view on the line 3-3 of Figure 1, looking-in the direction of the arrows Figure 4 is a View similar to Figure 1, ex-
cept that theflap of the envelope is closed;
Figure 5 is a plan viewof the back of theenvelope shown in Figure 1; Y
Figure 6 is an enlarged sectional view on on the line 6-6 of Figure 4:, looking in the direction of the arrows. 1
Similar characters of-reference designate similar parts in each of theaccompanying' drawingsv 1 The reference character 1 denotes-an envelope or other receptacle of sheet material to which attachment- s 2 and 5 are secured for the purpose of carrying the same.
Tnthe process of manufacturing, the attachment 2 is secured,preferably pasted or glued, to the fiap6 of the envelope by its attaching portion .8 which is positioned so that its edge, except for a projecting tongue 19, is flush with the edge 14 of the said flap. The-attachment has a patch portion 3' adhesively secured to the front 11 of the envelope. The saidpatch portion is cut from the handle portion 9 and is integral with the attaching portion 8. r i
' The second attachment 5 is secured by its attaching portion 7 as shown'by the stippled area inFig's. 2 and 5, to the back 12 of the envelope. The attachingportion has a well or unglued portion 20 for receiving the tongue 19. A crease 13 is in the upper edge of the said attaching portion and is positioned to facilitate opening and closing of the flap 6. A handle portion 10 is integral with the attaching portion and has a cut-out portion 15 which will fita persons hand or fingers. V r
The appearance of the upper portion of the envelope in section afterhaving the present invention incorporated in it, may be seen in Figure 3. The envelope as it is ready for-use, has its flap 6 open with attachment 2 secured thereto, so that the handle portion 9 of the said attachment extends toward the bottom of the envelope. The other attachment 5 is positioned on the back of the envelope so that the handle portion 10 extends above the edge 17 of the envelope, as is best seen in Figure 5.
An illustration of the front of the envelope when the handles register or coincide with each other may be seen in Figure 4. It is to be observedthat the patch13 serves not only to guard the said edge 17 of the envelope, but also to reinforce the attachment and the top of the envelope. The attachment 5 is so positioned on the back of the envelope that lower edge 18 of the cut-out portion is just below edge 16 of the patch. In this manner the hand of the person carrying the envelope is protected from being cut by the edge 18. Furthermore, as edge 16 is the top of the patch 3 and is not sharp, a person is fully protected against sharp edges in carrying the envelope by its handle.
In the use of the envelope, the material is deposited within it, and then the handle 10 is bent back slightly about the crease 13 in order that the flap 6 may be closed. Due to the elasticity of the handle 10, it returns to its normal position and positively locks the envelope after the flap 6 is positioned. The manner in which the handle 10 locks the flap 6 may be seen in Figure 6 which shows the position of the various parts of the closed envelope. The tongue 19 on attachment 2 forms an additional look by fitting between the envelope and the attaching portion 7, as is best seen in Figure 5. Moreover, as the flap 6 is of considerable length in the preferred form of the embodiment of the in vention, and is reinforced by the carrying attachment having a tongue at its end, as explained heretofore; theenvelope will be locked shut when the handles register and will remain so even if the envelope is dropped or laid down. The edge 14 of the flap 6 is above the crease 13, so that there is ample clearance between the latter and the former when the flap of the envelope is closed.
It is to be observed that the positioning of the attachment on the exterior of the envelope leaves the useful space within the said envelope undiminished.
It is to be further noted that by the use of the present invention, ordinary envelopes may be employed as the receptacles to which the attachments are fastened. This eliminates the use of special machinery for the manufacture of receptacles of sheet mate rial having carrying attachments incorporated in them. In this manner the cost of production of the said receptacles is reduced to a minimum.
Although I have herein shown and described several forms embodying the invention, it will be readily understood that many changes and modifications may be made therein within the scope of the following claims, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, it being my intention to claim the samebroadly in whatever form its principles may be employed.
What I claim is:
l. The combination with an envelope of sheet material, of a pair of handles, one secured to the flap, and the other to the back of the envelope, said handles being arranged to be brought into superposed relation by folding of the flap to close the envelope.
2. The combination vith a paper envelope, of an attachment comprising a carrying portion and an attaching portion, said attachment being fastened to the back of the envelope, so that the carrying portion is above the top edge of the bag, another attachment similar to the first, and fastened to the flap of the envelope, so that the carrying portion extends toward the bottom of the envelope and away from the edge of the flap.
3. The combination with a paper envelope, of a pair of carrying attachments, one positioned on the back of the envelope to overlie the flap when closed with its handle portion above the top of the envelope, and the other positioned on the flap with its attaching portion flush with the edge of the flap, and arranged to be inverted into registration with the other handle by folding of the flap, to close the envelope, so that when the two handle portions register with each other the flap is necessarily maintained in position to close the envelope.
4. An envelope having a pair of paper handles fastened thereto, one of said handles having a tongue punched from its body portion to provide the handle grip, said tongue being adhesively connected to the envelope body to form a guard patch.
5. A pair of attachments adapted to be fastened to an envelope of sheet material, one of said attachments comprising an at taching portion adapted to be fastened on the flap of said envelope, a handle portion, and a patch cut from the handle portion and integral with the said attaching portion and fastened to the front of the envelope, thereby reinforcing said attachment and guarding the edge of the envelope. and the second attachment comprising a handle portion, and an attaching portion adapted to be fastened to the back of the envelope.
6. The combination with an envelope of sheet material, of a pair of handles, one of said handles being secured to the flap of said envelope and having a tongue projecting beyond the edge of the said flap, the other of said handles being secured to the back of said envelope and forming a pocket therewith, so that when the handles coincide the said tongue is positioned in the pocket between the back of the envelope and the latter handle, and the envelope is locked shut.
7. The combination with an envelope of sheet material, the said envelope being provided with a long flap, of a carrying attachment secured to said flap and reinforcing the same, the said attachment having a tongue projecting beyond the edge of the flap, and a second attachment secured to the back of the envelope and forming a pocket therewith to receive said tongue for locking the envelope shut.
8. The combination with an envelope of sheet material, the said envelope being pro- 5 vided with a long flap, of a pair of carrying attachments, one of said attachments being secured to said flap and reinforcing the same, the said attachment having a tongue projecting beyond the edge of the flap, and 10 the second attachment secured to the-back of the envelope to receive the said tongue and to hold the flap in a locked condition When the envelope is closed. 1
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my 15 signature to this specification.
