Application June 23, 1933, Serial No. 677,241
4 Claims.
The invention relates to improvements in merchandise envelopes and has for its primary object the provision of an improved construction of this character capable of containing and displaying articles of merchandise, which is of simple construction, highly eflicient in use, and capable of economical production.
Another object of the invention is the provision of an improved construction of the character indicated so constructed and arranged as to reinforce the same at the corners. I
Another object of the invention is the provision of a construction of the character indicated having an improved handle arrangement.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention consists in the combinations and arrangements of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, and in which Fig. 1 is a rear view of the envelope shown in distended condition; a
Fig. 2 a rear view thereof showing the envelope in folded and carrying condition;
Fig. 3 an enlarged section taken substantially on line 3-3 of Fig. 1, in which the thickness of the materials has been exaggerated for the sake of clearness; and
Fig. 4 a view similar to Fig. 3 taken from line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
The embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawing comprises a rectangular transparent front sheet 10, preferably formed of cellophane or similar transparent material. Adhesively secured to the four edges of the sheet are closure flaps 11, 12, 13 and 14, preferably formed of glacien, or similar semi-transparent material. As shown, flaps 11 and 12 are the full width of the corresponding sides of the sheet 10 and relatively short in lengths, while flaps 13 and 14 are of lengths to extend entirely across the back of the front sheet 10. By this arrangement the flaps are caused to overlap each other at the corners 15, thereby reinforcing said corners by providing three thicknesses of material at these points.
At the top of the front side of the sheet 10, a handle strip 16 is adhesively secured to project somewhat above the top edge thereof and is provided with a transverse slit 17 just above said top edge. The lowermost flap 14 is provided at its free edge with another handle member 18 having a narrow extension 19 adapted and arranged to fit through the slit 17 and having a hand hole 20 as shown.
In use, the merchandise desired to be enclosed and contained in the envelope is arranged from the back of the sheet 10. Then the flaps 11, 12, 13 and 14 are folded over said merchandise, in the order recited, thereby bringing the handle projection 19 into registration with the slit 1'7, said handle projection being inserted through said slit, as indicated in Fig. 2. This arrangement causes the handle members to interlock to hold the flaps in closed or folded relation and thereby securely retaining the enclosed merchandise. The envelope thus provided is especially adapted for containing and displaying stockings, neckties, gloves, hand bags, shirts and similar articles which are of a relatively light and flat nature or may be so folded. The specific form and arrangement disclosed is a simple and effective one for the purpose.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction for carrying my invention into effect, this is capable of variation and modification without departing from the spirit of the invention. I, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precise details disclosed, but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as fall within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A merchandise envelope comprising a front sheet of transparent material; flaps secured to said sheet and foldable across the back thereof to form a container; and handle members at one edge of said front sheet and the free edge of the corresponding flap, one of said handle members being provided with a slit and the other fitting through said slit and provided with a hand hole.
2. A merchandise envelope comprising a rectangular front sheet of transparent material; four flaps of different lengths secured to the edges of said sheet so as to overlap each other at the corners and foldable across the back thereof to form a container; and handle members at one edge of said front sheet and the free edge of the corresponding flap, one of said handle members being provided with a slit and the other fitting through said slit and provided with a hand hole.
3. An envelope comprising a front sheet; flaps secured to the edges of said sheet and foldable across the back thereof to form a, container; and handle members secured to one edge of said front sheet and the free edge of the corresponding flap,
one of said handle members being provided with a slit and the other fitting through said slit and provided with a hand hole.
4. An envelope comprising a front sheet; flaps 5 secured to the edges of said sheet and foldable across the back thereof to form a container; a
handle member secured to the top edge of said front sheet to project upwardly therefrom and provided with a slit; and a handle member on the free edge of the flap secured to the bottom edge of said sheet adapted and arranged to fit through said slit and provided with a hand hole.
