Definitions

  • This invention relates to continuous business form assemblies and webs for the same having windows for address information and the like.
  • the invention is an improvement in a web, the web (a) being continuous in both of two longitudinal directions along a longitudinal axis, (b) having a series of business forms thereon, the series being continuous in the longitudinal directions, (c) defining a series of cut windows in the web on the forms, the series of windows being continuous in the longitudinal directions, and (d) being adapted to be fed and high speed impact printed in a first of the two longitudinal directions, the first longitudinal direction thereby being a direction of travel of the web during feeding and printing characterised in that the web has at least two distinct window edges along each window extending generally transverse to the longitudinal axis, one of the at least two window edges being a leading window edge and the other of the two window edg-s being a trailing window edge trailing the leading window edge when
  • the preferred embodiment of the invention is an improvement in a continuous business form assembly of a web 10 being continuous in both directions along a longitudinal axis 12.
  • the assembly 10 has a continuous series of business forms 14 which extend transversely across the assembly 10 and are joined longitudinally end-to-end across a series of perforation lines 16.
  • the assembly 10 has feed strips 18, 20 along transversely opposite edges 22,24.
  • the strips 18, 20 include continuous rows 26, 28, respectively, of spaced tractor holes.
  • Each form 14 defines a window 30 for displaying address information (not shown) to be printed on the form 14 at a location 31.
  • the location 31 is equidistant with the window 30 from a continuous, longitudinal fold line 32.
  • the assembly 10 is fed and printed in a first longitudinal direction 34 along the axis 12, away from the second longitudinal direction 35.
  • the direction 34 is the direction of travel, and components of the assembly 10 which precede other components in the direction of travel 34 lead such other components, or are, in relation to the other components, leading components.
  • the other components are, then, trailing components.
  • Each window 30 is an area cut from a form 14. The area is covered with a transparent sheet 36 as in Fig. 2. The sheet 36 is adhered to the form 14 by an encircling adhesive 38.
  • the web 10 and each form 14 have, along each window 30, four distinct window edges 40, 42, 44, 46. Two of the edges 40, 42 extend generally transversely across the form 14. The other two edges 44, 46 extend generally longitudinally along the form 14. The first transverse edge 40 is the leading edge of the window, while the opposite transverse edge 42 is the trailing edge. The two edges 44, 46 are opposed side edges of the window.
  • edges 40, 44, 46 are substantially completely straight, geomertrically.
  • the edge 40 is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 12, while the edges 44, 46 are parallel to the axis 12.
  • the edges 44, 46 are perpendicular to the edge 40.
  • Small, rounded, or partially circular corners 50, 52 join the edges 44, 46 to the edge 40 in a smooth transition therefrom.
  • the edge 42 is unique.
  • the edge 42 is bowed in the trailing direction.
  • the center 54 of the edge 42 trails the sides 56, 58 of the edge 42,
  • the edge 42 is nowhere straight, but continuously curved throughout its extent.
  • the degree, rate or amount of curvature of the edge 42 does not substantially vary across its extent; the degree of curvature is substantially uniform.
  • the sides 56, 58 are longitudinally even with each other, and lead the center 54 by about one-eighth inch. Small, rounded corners 60, 62 join the edge 40 to the edges 44, 46 in smooth transitions.
  • the bow (longitudinal distance from the sides 44, 46 to the center 54) of the edge 42 could be greater or less than one-eighth inch without affect on freedom from snagging or otherwise. It is also believed a bow of less than one-sixteenth inch would not be any more free of snagging than no bow. Points along the edge 42, as with a V-cut edge, are disfavoured due to die wear.
