Appl. No.:

09/633905

Inventors:

Peter G. Jenkins - Elyria OH

Assignee:

Jeter Systems Corporation - Akron OH

International Classification:

B42F 2104

US Classification:

40359, 40641, 283 36

Abstract:

A file folder label for use on file folders having an exposed tiered edge is provided having a unitary label portion with at least one major and at least one minor tier section. The major tier section or sections and minor tier section or sections are provided to correspond with a major tier or tiers and a minor tier or tiers presented on the exposed edge of the file folder to which the tier file folder label is to be attached. The major and minor tier sections of the folder label are partially separable such that the major and minor tier sections can be partially separated and individually manipulated to conform to the corresponding tier on the file folder. Additionally, cut-out windows are provided on the folder label and help to partially separate major and minor tier sections. These windows also help in the alignment of the folder label when applying it to a file folder.

US Classification:

Abstract:

A method for making paper labels having a protective covering where a paper sheet, adhesively supported on a first release backing sheet, is first die cut to form an array of labels. A second release backing sheet is provided having adhesively attached thereto, by an adhesive, an array of transparent cover strips. The second release backing sheet is divided into first and second portions. The second release backing sheet is then placed on the die cut paper sheet where the second release backing sheet is between the cover strips and the labels. The first portion of the second release backing sheet is then removed from the cover strips to expose a portion of the cover strips, and the exposed portion of the cover strips are then adhered to corresponding portions of the labels using the adhesive. The second portion of the second release backing sheet is then removed from the cover strips to expose a remaining portion of the cover strips, and the remaining portion of the cover strips are then adhered to corresponding portions of the labels using the adhesive. During removal of the first portion of the second release backing sheet, the second portion of the second release backing sheet is secured with the die cut paper sheet.

Abstract:

A label generating technique and apparatus allows for the generation of an array of labels for attachment to a assemblage of file folders without the implementation of a confining template. A library of alpha-numeric color coded graphics is available for application to each label as a sheet of pressure sensitive adhesive paper is introduced to a printer. An operator enters the data respecting various labels from a mass data bank. The data entry includes both typed information and color-coded graphics from the library. The final label may be viewed upon a monitor. Upon completion of the labels, they are printed upon a pressure sensitive adhesive sheet, laminated with a clear cover sheet, die cut, and removed and applied to the edge of a file folder. The technique of the invention basically employs clip art or cut and paste techniques for generating a label having printed information and an array of color coded graphics.
