Abstract
Paper handkerchiefs pack having a stack of folded handkerchiefs 3 enclosed on all sides by a foil envelope 2. The handkerchiefs 3 have a fold which has an edge 6 at the outside of the folded handkerchief that lies free with the two edges 7, 8 extending from it, one of these edges 7 running in the middle of the longitudinal extent of the surface of the handkerchief from one longitudinal edge thereof to the other longitudinal edge thereof and the other of these edges running along a longitudinal edge of the folded handkerchief. To form a dispenser opening, a line of weakness 4 is provided which extends over the middle of the broad upper surface 5 of the foil envelope.
Claims17
A paper handkerchief pack comprising:
- a stack of folded handkerchiefs;
- a foil envelope enclosing said stack of folded handkerchiefs on all sides and having broad top and bottom surfaces, said foil envelope having a line of weakness for forming a dispenser opening upon tearing, said line appearing only on the broad top surface of said foil envelope;
- each of said handkerchiefs (3) of said stack having a fold whereby a corner (6) at the outside of folded handkerchief (3) lies free with two edges (7, 8) extending from it, one edge (7) of these two edges (7, 8) lying approximately in the middle of the longitudinal extent of the surface of the folded handkerchief from one longitudinal edge thereof to the other longitudinal edge thereof and the other edge (8) of these two edges (7, 8) running along a longitudinal edge of the folded handkerchief, the fold being a Z-shaped preliminary fold (10), the fold lines (11, 12) of which run parallel to each other and parallel to an edge (15) of the handkerchief;
- said preliminary fold (10) being folded around a fold line (16) extending through the midst of the preliminary fold and perpendicularly to said fold lines (11, 12) of the preliminary fold, which creates two halves of the preliminary fold one laid upon the other, said two halves of the preliminary fold being folded together around a pair of fold lines (17) both extending through the midst of said two halves perpendicularly to said fold lines (11,12) of said preliminary fold;
- and
- said line of weakness (4) defining a geometrical surface figure extending over the middle of said broad upper surface (5) of the foil envelope, said geometrical figure being generally centered in the middle of the broad upper surface (5) of the foil envelope (2).
