Abstract
A multi-layered label which may be torn open to expose an interior leaflet. First and second cover sheets are peripherally sealed together, typically with end seals. A multi-layered leaflet member is positioned between the first and second cover sheets, at least one layer of the leaflet member being sealed to an internal face of one of the first and second sheets. A line of tearing weakness in the first cover sheet permits opening thereof for access to the leaflet member.
Claims14
In a multi-layered label which may be torn open to expose an interior leaflet, the improvement comprising, in combination:
- first outer and second inner cover sheets with an adhesive layer on at least one side thereof, and peripherally sealed together, and a separate multi-layer leaflet member positioned between said first and second cover sheets, at least one layer of said leaflet member being adhered to an internal face of one of said first and second sheets, and a line of tearing weakness in said first cover sheet to permit opening thereof for access to said leaflet member.
In a multi-layered label which may be torn open to expose an interior leaflet, the improvement comprising, in combination:
- first outer and second inner cover sheets with an adhesive layer on at least one side thereof, and sealed together at opposed ends, and a multi-layer folded leaflet member positioned between said first and second cover sheets, at least the first cover sheet being transparent, one layer of said leaflet member defining a printed outer face which is bonded to an inner face of the first cover sheet so as to be visible therethrough, and an off-center line of tearing weakness in said first cover sheet to permit said first sheet to be opened to expose inner folds of said leaflet member.
In a multi-layered label which may be torn open to expose an interior leaflet, the improvement comprising, in combination:
- first and second cover sheets sealed together at opposed ends, and a multi-layer, folded-strip leaflet member positioned between said first and second cover sheets, an end layer of said folded leaflet member strip being bonded to an inner face of the first cover sheet, an ultimate end portion of said end layer adjacent one of the opposed ends of said label being reverse folded to extend toward the center of said label and defining a tab member, said first cover sheet and end layer of the folded leaflet defining lines of tearing weakness in registry with each other so that both said first cover sheet and end layer may be simultaneously torn open by said lines of weakness, said lines of weakness being located adjacent said tab member, and a slot defined in said first cover sheet positioned and proportioned to receive said tab member subsequent to opening of said label by rupturing said lines of tearing weakness.
In a multi-layered label which may be torn open to expose an interior leaflet, the improvement comprising, in combination:
- first and second cover sheets sealed together at opposed ends, and a multi-layer, folded leaflet member positioned between said first and second cover sheets, at least one layer of said leaflet member being bonded to an inner face of said first cover sheet, a portion of said last layer of the leaflet member adjacent the second cover sheet being folded over said one layer adjacent one opposed end to form a tab portion extending toward the center of said label, a slot defined in the first cover sheet and cover of leaflet member in registry, positioned and proportioned to receive said tab portion, and a line of tearing weakness defined in said first cover sheet adjacent said one opposed end, whereby breaking of said line of tearing weakness permits said first cover sheet to be opened to expose said milti-layer, folded leaflet member, and said tab member may then be used to fit in said slot to reclose the label.
