Abstract
Folders are disclosed. In some embodiments, the folder may include a unitary planar material folded along a transverse fold forming a front panel and a rear panel. The front panel may be folded over the rear panel along the transverse fold. The rear panel may include an additional fold defining first and second portions. One of the front and rear panels may include lateral projections folded along longitudinal folds and affixed to the other of the front and rear panels to form a document receptacle between the front panel and the rear panel. At least one reference apparatus may be formed with at least one of the front and rear panels. The at least one reference apparatus mat be configured to be detached from the at least one of the front and rear panels.

A folder, comprising:
- a unitary planar material folded along a transverse fold forming a front panel and a rear panel,
- the front panel being folded over the rear panel along the transverse fold, the rear panel including an additional fold defining first and second portions, one of the front and rear panels including lateral projections folded along longitudinal folds and affixed to the other of the front and rear panels to form a document receptacle between the front panel and the rear panel, and
- at least one reference apparatus formed with at least one of the front and rear panels, the at least one reference apparatus being configured to be detached from the at least one of the front and rear panels, the at least one reference apparatus including:
- a first panel,
- a second panel, and
- a third panel disposed between the first and second panels,
- wherein, when the at least one reference apparatus is detached from the at least one of the front and rear panels, the first and second panels are configured to be folded between a folded position in which the first and second panels are parallel to the third panel, and an unfolded position in which the first and second panels are coplanar with the third panel, one of the first and second panels including a slot configured to receive an end portion of the other of the first and second panels to secure the first, second, and third panels together in the folded position.

The folder of 4, wherein the front panel includes at least one slot and the second portion includes at least one tab configured to be inserted into the at least one slot.
A folder, comprising:
- a unitary planar material folded along first and second transverse folds forming a front panel, a lid, and a rear panel disposed between the front panel and the lid,
- the front panel being folded over the rear panel along the first transverse fold, one of the front and rear panels including lateral projections folded along longitudinal folds and affixed to the other of the front and rear panels to form a document receptacle between the front panel and the rear panel,
- the lid being configured to be folded over the front panel along the second transverse fold to form a closure for the document receptacle, and
- at least one reference apparatus formed with at least one of the front panel, the rear panel, and the lid, the at least one reference apparatus configured to be detached from the at least one of the front panel, the rear panel, and the lid, the at least one reference apparatus including:
- a first panel,
- a second panel, and
- a third panel disposed between the first and second panels,
- wherein, when the at least one reference apparatus is detached from the at least one of the front panel, the rear panel, and the lid, the first and second panels are configured to be folded between a folded position in which the first and second panels are parallel to the third panel, and an unfolded position in which the first and second panels are coplanar with the third panel, one of the first and second panels including a slot configured to receive an end portion of the other of the first and second panels to secure the first, second, and third panels together in the folded position.
5 more elements
A folder, comprising:
- a unitary planar material folded along first and second folds forming one or more front panels and a rear panel,
- the one or more front panels being folded over the rear panel along the first fold, one of the one or more front panels and the rear panel including lateral projections folded along longitudinal folds and affixed to the other of the one or more front panels and the rear panel to form one or more document receptacles between the one or more front panels and the rear panel,
- the rear panel having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion being configured to be folded over the second portion along the second fold, and
- at least one reference apparatus formed with at least one of the one or more front panels and the rear panel, the at least one reference apparatus being configured to be detached from at least one of the one or more front panels and the rear panel, the at least one reference apparatus including:
- a first panel,
- a second panel, and
- a third panel disposed between the first and second panels,
- wherein, when the at least one reference apparatus is detached from the at least one of the one or more front panels and the rear panel, the first and second panels are configured to be folded between a folded position in which the first and second panels are parallel to the third panel, and an unfolded position in which the first and second panels are coplanar with the third panel, one of the first and second panels including a slot configured to receive an end portion of the other of the first and second panels to secure the first, second, and third panels together in the folded position.
