Abstract
A multi-layer, multi-web, laser printable, page-sized form with an identification band blank comprises a multi-layered web die cut with a first paper label portion for receiving a printed image and an adhesive backed transparent film layer approximately twice the width of the paper layer so that upon separation from a carrier, the transparent film may be folded over and completely encapsulate the paper layer to moisture proof it and protect it. The transparent film layer includes a pair of adhesive backed tabs at the ends to facilitate its attachment about a patient's wrist or ankle. The band blank web is joined to a second multi-layer web with an overlapping glued joint, the second multi-layer web having a plurality of adhesive backed labels die cut into it.
Claims25
An identification band blank, cut into and removable from a multi-layered form suitable for processing through a printer, said multi-layered form being less than page-sized, said multi-layered blank having a first layer suitable for receiving a print image from said printer, a second oversized layer of moisture resistant material, and a pair of integrally formed adhesive backed tabs cut into and formed out of the material comprising the second layer and near the ends of said band blank so that upon removal of said band blank from said form the second layer may be folded over to overlie the printed image on the first layer and the tabs used to secure the band blank about a person's appendage.
The identification band blank of claim wherein said second layer comprises a substantially transparent film so that as said second layer is folded over the first layer the printed image is viewable therethrough.
An identification band blank cut into and removable from an approximately envelope sized, multi-layered form, said band blank including a first layer adapted to receive and hold a printed image thereon, and a second layer of a substantially transparent, adhesive-backed film and sized to overly both sides of said first layer with a pair of tabs at the ends of said second layer for attaching together the ends of said band blank.
A multi-layered band blank cut into a form, said form being sized to be conveniently processed by a printer, said multi-layered band blank having a layer of paper stock for receiving a printed image and a layer of adhesive backed, substantially transparent film, said film layer having a pair of adhesive backed tabs at the ends for attaching together the ends of said band blank, said band blank being arranged for separation from said form as an assemblage.
A multi-layered band blank cut into a form, said band blank being comprised of two layers, said two layers including a top paper stock layer suitable for receiving and holding a printed image and a bottom substantially transparent film layer, said film layer being approximately twice the size of said paper stock layer, said assemblage being arranged so that said film layer may be folded over to substantially encapsulate said paper stock layer after said band blank has been separated from said form, said form being sized to be conveniently processed by a printer, said multi-layered band blank being sized to form a wristband for attaching to a person's wrist, and the layers of said band blank being arranged for separation from said form as an assemblage.
