International Classification:

B32B 3100

US Classification:

101494, 428 401, 156277

Abstract:

An apparatus for manufacturing multiple die cut business forms is disclosed. A printing press includes a number of different stations that are connected together by a continuous web so that multiple die cut business forms are produced and transported through the printing press by the continuous web. One aspect of the present invention is that a silicone treated glassine stock paper substrate can be utilized to allow business forms to be produced with minimized curling.

Abstract:

A form that incorporates either a label or card such that the form can be reliably printed on by the end user and manufactured less expensively. The integrated label form includes a top printable substrate and a liner substrate mated together by an adhesive. The top printable substrate serves at least partially as removable portions capable of being reapplied. Weakened lines of substrate may be provided to define removable portions on the top printable substrate. The form also may include a similar printable substrate mated to the other side of the liner by adhesive. Weakened lines of substrate also may formed in the second substrate to define removable portions. The integrated card form includes a printable substrate and a first and second laminate mated to the substrate and together by an adhesive. Weakened lines of substrate and first laminate define an integrated removable portion capable of being held in the form by the second laminate and easily removed manually when desired. In the integrated card form and the integrated label form, a recess may be provided adjacent the removable portion to facilitate removal of the removable portion.

US Classification:

101226, 156177, 428 401

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for manufacturing multiple die cut business forms is disclosed. One embodiment of a printing press according to the present invention includes a number of different stations that are connected together by a continuos web. Multiple die cut business forms are produced by a continuos process from stock paper to an output configuration such as continuos roll, fan fold, or cut sheet. One aspect of the present invention is that a silicone treated glassine stock paper substrate can be utilized to allow business forms to be produced with minimized curling.

John J. McKillip - Rockford IL, US

International Classification:

B32B 3/00

US Classification:

428 401, 428 422, 428 43, 428156

Abstract:

A form or printing product and method for fabricating same on label formation equipment. The form includes first and second layers of material adhesively secured together. The first layer includes a card or label and a surrounding region, wherein the top and bottom surfaces of the card or label are substantially co-planar with the top and bottom surfaces, respectively, of the surrounding region. The second layer is adhered over the card or label and the surrounding region. By compressing the leading edge or trailing edge of the elevated second layer in tandem with the first layer, and thereby creating a small indentation, allows a sheet exiting a printer to bypass, travel over, or not come into contact with the second layer of the previously printed form resting in an output tray.
