Definitions

This invention has reference to bags capable of receiving contents and which have a surface or part of a surface capable of displaying information about the intended destination of the bag. Some of such bags are also referred to as envelopes but are herein referred to as bags.
Such a bag is intended to be used for containing bank notes which have to be moved, for example, from one branch of the bank to another branch.
bags should be available which are capable of being closed, for example, in a store where it is required to circulate money from one department to another and from the store to a bank.
a bag comprising a pocket part having a surface capable of displaying information about the intended destination of the bag or the contents of the bag, a flap part which is capable of being folded over the mouth of the pocket part, and an adhesive strip secured to the bag and comprising a band of adhesive and a covering barrier sheet being removable to permit the band of adhesive to secure the flap part to the pocket part when the former is folded onto the latter to retain the bag closed, the side edges of the pocket part and the side of the bag adjacent to the mouth where the flap part overlies the pocket part when the bag is closed being provided with security printing so that once closed, the bag cannot be reopened and any of the contents extracted and then resealed without the fact being made apparent by the distortion or destruction of some of the security printing.
a bag comprises a pocket part having a surface capable of displaying information, a flap part which is capable of being folded over the mouth of the pocket part and an adhesive strip secured to the bag and comprising a band of adhesive and a covering barrier sheet, the covering barrier sheet being removable to permit the band of adhesive to secure the flap part to the pocket part when the former is folded onto the latter to retain the bag closed, the side of the bag adjacent to the mouth where the flap part overlies the pocket part when the bag is closed being provided with security printing and wherein the security printing at the side of the bag adjacent to the mouth of the bag is printed in ink capable of being dissolved in solvent and so arranged that once closed the bag cannot be reopened and any of the contents extracted and then resealed without the fact being made apparent by the distortion or destruction of some of the security printing and in particular if any attempt to open the mouth of the bag by the application of solvent causes the printing to be blurred and give an indication that the bag has been tampered with.
the bag as generally designated 1 is intended to contain bank notes or documents.
the bag is formed from a continuous web of thermoplastics film, for example of polyethylene, by folding the continuous web about a fold line 2 which constitutes the bottom of the bag.
One folded side 2a is wider than the other folded side 2b with the two folded sides together forming a pocket with part of the longer folded side projecting to form a flap 7.
the web is subsequently heat sealed transversely of the web to form the side edges 4, 5 of the bag.
a label 6 is applied to the bag and serves as a writing surface to receive handwritten or the like details of the notes contained in the bag.
the label. is preferably subdivided into areas to receive information about the bank notes contained in the bag and areas to receive the cashier's stamp and the signatures of the persons responsible for the bag. Alternatively, the label may be capable of receiving information about the intended destination of the bag.
the flap 7 is capable of being folded over the outer end of the shorter folded side 2b to close the bag.
the inside face of the flap 7 has a line of hot melt adhesive 8 or other similar adhesive strip applied, this is protected by a barrier sheet 8a.
Suitable adhesives are found to be those sold as Lunatack D 5762 by H.B. Fuller International or as 089-1011 by National Adhesives, Inc.
areas of security printing 9 are provided adjacent to the welded transverse edges 4 and 5 of the bag with the areas of security printing between the respective line of heat seal and the adjacent edge of the bag.
This security printing is similar to that described in our prior Patent No. 1365240 except that it is applied to both the side edges of the bag rather than to the top and bottom of the bag and for example comprises the name of the bank repeated in lines of microprint in close juxtaposition on the bag, or other forms of security printing.
a further area of security printing 10 is provided on the shorter side of the bag adjacent to the mouth in the area to be covered by the flap 7, and this further area is so positioned as to be overlayered by the band of adhesive when the flap is in the closed position.
This security printing is printed in soluble ink.
a soluble ink is conveniently ink sold under the Code 7526LHC by Lorrilleaux Bolton Clapham (Liquid Inks) Limited composed of a colourant, a binder and a solvent as follows:
any solvent that is capable of rendering the adhesive strip 8 tacky also serves as a solvent for the security printing matter so that if any solvent is applied to the adhesive strip, the solvent will also serve to dissolve some of the security printing as shown in Fig. 4 and given an indication that the bag has been tampered with. It is also desirable but not essential that one of the colourants is more soluble in solvents than the other and this will cause a color change if the security printing is attacked by solvent.
small perforations 10a are formed near the base of the bag to prevent the egress of air from the bag to prevent air being trapped within the bag.
the barrier sheet 8a is removed from the flap 7 of the bag and the flap is then folded upon the end of the shorter folded side 2b at the mouth of the bag.
the line of adhesive 8 secures the flap 7 to the shorter folded side 2b.
the adhesive strip can be applied to the shorter side of the pocket near the mouth to secure the flap when the latter is folded over to close the bag.
an area of printing ink suitable to receive written information may be applied to the bag so as to be capable of receiving information about the contents of the bag.
