Description
BOOKLET DEVICE FOR TICKETS , COUPONS OP HT? T.T KTΓ
Technical Field
This invention relates to the area booklets for tickets, coupons and the like, where a number of tickets or the like, each one having a tear initiation or the like are attached to a cover part with a front and a rear flap at least partially enclosing a back or edge portion of the tickets or the like.
Backσrund of the Invention
Tickets in booklets exist in many connections. One common type of airline ticket includes a cover part having a forward and a rear flap and between these are fastened a number of through-printable tickets, each ticket detach¬ able from the booklet and leaving a perforated stub. The number of tickets or leaves in the booklet is determined by an average demand pro trip, and if the trip is an uncompli- cated one, the agent will detach printed-through, but not necessary tickets from the booklet before delivering it to the customer. In the opposite case, when the trip is a complicated one and includes many legs or distances, the average or standard number of leaves is insufficient, and in such a case you will have to - by means of staples or the like - clamp together two or three booklets to form a stack of tickets. The same procedure is used on change of booking, in which case a further new booklet has to be attached to the original one. It is, consequently, not possible to change a particular ticket in an already prepared booklet, but it is necessary to print a new one or rather be replaced. As an emergency measure separate change of reservation stickers are used, which are stuck
onto the tickets. Besides the ticket leaves serving as flight passes a ticket booklet today often includes one or more leaves containing current conditions of contract and limitation of liability and such additional leaves make the booklet thicker and obstructs the printing-through of the stack of tickets and its cover flaps.
Purposes of the Invention
One purpose of this invention is to bring about an arrangement, resulting in a flexible ticket system, making it possible to build up ticket booklets with just any number of tickets and text disclosing leaves etcetera, whereby - in case of need - one or several tickets may be removed from the booklet and replaced by others or reprinted and again be brought together with the remaining tickets and where it is possible to include any number of prescribed information leaves and the like without problem and wherein the ticket in its prepared state is sealeable.
Summary of the Invention
The device according to this invention includes a cover part having a - preferably integral - projection, and adhering or fixation means for the free end of such projection, a number of ticket or coupon leaves having an opening surrounded by un-broken edge, wherein the projec¬ tion of the cover is threadable through the opening of each ticket and with its free end securable against the cover thereby forming a closed securing system for the tickets. By putting the free end of the extension against a bead or run of adhesive arranged along the rear portion of the cover and fold the opposite cover portion over same and press down the rear portion of the opposite cover portion a sealing of the ticket is acomplished. If the end of the projection is devoid of adhesiv, it may be loosened after spreading of the back portions so that tickets may be removed and/or inserted. If on the other hand also the end
portion of the projection wears an adhesive, the projection can not be loosened once fastened. Such an arrangement functions as a seal indicating if someone has opened the booklet in order to tamper with the tickets. If one or more tickets in a booklet thus arranged has or .have to be replaced, the whole cover is suitably replaced or otherwise marked in a specific way indicating that an authorized person has opened same.
Description of the Embodiment
The inventions will be described more in detail herebelow with reference to the attached drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a folded open booklet cover seen from the inside thereof and a stack of tickets or coupons for same.
Figures 2 - 6 are perspective views illustrating how the cover is arranged for receiving tickets, how these are attached and how the cover is closed and sealed.
The cover part designated 1 includes two outer flaps 2a and 2b and a back portion 5 having one central and at least one outer fold initation 3 and 4, respectively. At one of the flaps, preferably the rear one 2b, there is a u- shaped cut or perforation 6 which defines a projection 7 which may be folded out and which is in a specific design, at the end 8 of its rear or outer side may have an area 9 covered with adhesive, which in the folded together position shown in Fig. 1 may engage a piece of protective foil (not shown) attached to the outer side of the rear flap 2b, which piece also, before use, keeps the projection 7 in a flat state.
Quite close to the central fold initiation 3 at the back portion of the rear flap 2b there is a bead or run of adhesive 10, which is covered by a strip 11 of protective
foil. The foldable portion 12 of the projection is situated at a distance from the string of adhesive so that there is a free space 13 between them.
Each of the tickets designated 14 includes a stub portion
15 having a width at the most as large as the width of the space 13 of the cover. The stub portion is via a tear initiation 16, preferably a perforation, connected to the ticket proper or coupon 17, which at its outer or free end via a further tear initiation 18 may be connected to a control coupon 19, Fig. 6 intended to serve as "Boarding Pass" or the like. Aligned with the first tear initiation
16 and preferably designed as a portion of same, there is an elongated slot like cut 20 arranged and this slot like cut has a length comparable with the width of the projec¬ tion 7 adjacent the root portion thereof.
Figure 3 discloses how a number of tickets 14 prepared in an appropriate way are threaded onto the projection 7. In order to affix the tickets to the cover 1, the protective foil 11 is removed. Figure 4, whereupon the end 8 of the projection 7 is pressed against the bared bead or run 10 of adhesive. In this way also the free end of the projection will be attached. The ticket booklet is then closed and finally sealed by folding the front cover flap 2a inwardly and pressing its back portion against the bared bead 10 of adhesive and against the end portion 8 of the projection 7.
In a modified embodiment the end of the projection may be provided with adhesive on the side which in folded position faces rearwardly. By allowing said adhesive engage the bead 10 of adhesive at the inside of the rear back portion a connection is created, which can not be severed without causing damages to the projection or the cover. If the projection is pulled a separation occurs between the paper material and the adhesive, not between adhesive and adhesive. This ambodiment is especially suited for tickets which may not undetected be opened by unauthorized persons.
The ticket in finished and sealed state is shown in Figure 6.
In Figures 3 - 5 is to be noted that the inner edge 21 of the stub portion 15 af the tickets is localized a little beyond the adhesive bead 10 so that the latter may co¬ operate with both the projection 7 and the inner end portion of the cover flap 2a. The cover back or inner end portions adhering to each other provide a guide or abutment preventing the tickets from swinging.
By selecting an appropriate adhesive not permitting separation without leaving traces, it will impossible to tamper with the ticket without being detected. In such cases, however, where an easy replacement of tickets of the booklet is demanded it is desirable, an adhesive permitting repeated separation and re-sealing.
