Abstract
A container content apparatus comprises two inserts. Each insert comprises a top portion, a bottom portion, and two side flaps. Each top portion comprises a die cut handle. The apparatus is adapted to be inserted into an inside of a container adjacent to interior walls of the container. An area defined by the inserts is adapted to receive a stack of media. When the inserts are removed via the handles, a gap or space exists between the outer edges of the stack and the interior walls of the container providing automatic alignment of the stack centered on the inside of the container and providing proper alignment to feed the stack directly from the container to an infeed of a printer.
Claims16
A label carton insert, comprising:
- a first component;
- and
- a second component:
- wherein the first component and second component are adapted to separate a stack of media placed in a label carton from inside side wall surfaces of the carton;
- wherein when the first component and second component are removed from label carton edges of the stack of media and are evenly spaced inside the label carton allowing the stack of media to be fed directly to a printer from the label carton without the stack of media contacting the inside side wall surfaces of the label carton;
- wherein portions of the label carton insert that are adjacent to the stack of media comprise a moisture resistant coating;
- wherein the moisture resistant coating eliminates a need for a plastic bag to be wrapped around the stack of media before the stack of media is inserted into the label carton and sealed for transport to a destination.
A label carton, comprising:
- a container;
- and
- a container insert adapted to line inside side wall surfaces of the container and separate the inside side wall surfaces from a stack of media placed in the container;
- wherein the container insert adapted to be removed from the container leaving a gap between edges of the stack of media and the inside side wall surfaces to align the stack of media for feeding to a printer without the edges of the stack of media contacting the inside side wall surfaces;
- wherein portions of the container insert that are adjacent to the stack of media comprise a moisture resistant coating;
- wherein the moisture resistant coating eliminates a need for a plastic bag to be wrapped around the stack of media before the stack of media is inserted into the container and sealed for transport to a destination.
