RU-2861381-C1 - POCKET ALBUM PAGE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME
Abstract
FIELD: stationery. SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to the production of stationery, office supplies and supplies for organising and storing documents or flat collectibles, namely a group of inventions relates to a pocket album page and a method for manufacturing same. The pocket album page includes a substrate on which rows of cells and flaps are formed from sheets of blanks using welded seams. The cells with flaps are formed by superimposing two sheets of blanks on each other, on each of which rows of stencils in the form of slits are cut out, the profile of which is made in the form of a contour of a row of cells with flaps, corresponding to the number of cells in one row. The rows of stencils on one sheet of blank are offset relative to the other sheet of blank, where the offset pitch is equal to the height of the stencil profile. The cut-out stencils of one sheet of blank are located in the gap between the rows of stencils of the other sheet of blank, thereby covering the cut-out slit of the stencil. The flaps above the cells in one row are located above the entrance to the cells, and in the other row – inside the cells. The sheets of blanks are connected to each other and to the substrate by vertical seams passing between the flaps of each cell to form the side faces of the cells and by horizontal seams forming the bases of the cells. EFFECT: expansion of the range of stationery means and the functionality of using finished products while simplifying the manufacturing process of a pocket album page equipped with flaps above the entrance to each pocket, by reducing the number of manufacturing steps. 9 cl, 8 dwg

Description
The invention relates to the production of stationery, office accessories, and accessories for organizing and storing documents or flat collectibles, in particular for numismatists, philatelists, phalerists, glucophiles and other collectors, as well as for placing samples of goods, for example, wallpaper samples, and the possibility of demonstrating them for public viewing. Placing items in bins is a way to organize a collection, protect items from external influences, and facilitate browsing. The current trend in this segment is toward developing new and unique products. New products also require new manufacturing processes. This trend is characteristic of virtually all product categories, from school notebooks to, for example, specialized collecting accessories, document storage, and workspace organization. While the range and quality of stationery products are noticeably inferior to imported counterparts and are positioned in the lower price segment, these manufacturers are gradually expanding their product range and improving their quality. A flat sample holder is known from the prior art (RU 2142369, cl. B42F 5/02, 1999),comprising at least one transparent film and at least one substrate, bonded together by an adhesive layer in a manner such that the transparent film can be peeled off from the substrate multiple times, with at least one flat sample located between the layers. The adhesive layer is applied to at least one side of the transparent film or substrate, wherein said side is bonded by means of this adhesive layer to the surface of the flat sample and the counterpart of the transparent film or substrate. The adhesive strength of the adhesive on the surface of the transparent film or substrate is less than the adhesive strength of the surface of the flat sample. The well-known flat sample holder is inconvenient to use, since small flat objects will be awkward to place in the holder and may shift while browsing the album. A sheet for philatelic or similar purposes (SE 422763, 1978), consisting of a single sheet of transparent plastic, placed on at least one side of a base sheet and secured to it by parallel adhesive or welded seams at a distance from each other that generally corresponds to the height of the desired ribbon pockets for items formed between the sheets. Slots are made in the plastic along the fastening strips to form the pockets for items. The plastic sheet has the same size as the base sheet. Additional slots are made in the plastic sheet, running perpendicular to the previous slots, located at a distance inside the corresponding opposite side edges of the joined sheets, corresponding to the required width of the sheet margins and determining the length of the pockets for items. This design of the sheet for placing items, such as coins, does not ensure its secure fixation, since items can fall out through the slots in the pockets. A sample storage assembly is known (US Patent No. 10759215, Class B42F13/26, 2020), comprising a sheet that can be placed in a ring binder with multiple pockets. An elastomeric strip is attached above the open side of each pocket. Multiple elastomeric strips are connected to the sheet. Each elastomeric strip is aligned with a corresponding pocket. Each sample packet can expand under a corresponding elastomeric strip. Thus, each elastomeric strip prevents the sample packets from falling out of the pockets. The presence of an elastomer strip above the pocket entrance is not a sufficiently secure device to prevent samples from falling out of the pocket. Therefore, using the existing assembly for storing and displaying collectibles and product samples is inconvenient and unreliable due to the possibility of items falling out of the pockets without authorization. The "Optima" file with compartments (https://www.monetnik.ru/aksessuary/papki-i-listy/papki-i-listy-dlya-monet/list-formata-optima-4456/), designed for self-assembly of a collection, was chosen as a prototype. The file is made in the form of a sheet of transparent backing made of a polymer material, such as PVC. Multiple compartments are formed on the backing using a cut strip of transparent polymer material, fastened at the sides of the backing and divided into compartments by adhesive or welding. Each element forming a compartment is located above or below a similar element in the compartment of the row above and below. A flap is welded to the bottom seam, forming the bottom of the compartment, blocking the entrance to the pocket below from above to prevent collection items from falling out. A perforated strip is attached to the side of the file for placing it in a folder or album. The familiar cell file is complex to manufacture, as each row is typically a separate element, manually placed one after the other on the operating table by the operator. The main element (the substrate on which the cells are secured) is then placed on top. All elements are welded to the shape of the welding electrode. Th
