| 20110275504 | WEB CREASING STATION FOR MAKING FAN-FOLDED WEBS OF PRESSURE-SENSITIVE LABELS - A label product in web form has alternating, oppositely indented creases in the liner of the product to produce a fan-folded stack having alternating, reversely folded plies. Each crease is substantially, if not entirely, perforation-free to maximize the strength of the liner at the fold lines. The product is preferably produced on a narrow web press in a creasing station that includes a stack of rolls wherein a first die roll is on the bottom of the stack, a second die roll is on the top of the stack, and a pair of base rolls are located in the middle of the stack between the die rolls. A blade on each die roll cooperates with a cushion on the corresponding base roll to produce a crease during every other rotation of the die roll, each of the base rolls having a smaller circumference than its corresponding die roll. | 11-10-2011 |
| 20110272102 | BASE ROLL FOR A CREASING STATION FOR MAKING FAN-FOLDED WEBS OF PRESSURE-SENSITIVE LABELS - A label product in web form has alternating, oppositely indented creases in the liner of the product to produce a fan-folded stack having alternating, reversely folded plies. Each crease is substantially, if not entirely, perforation-free to maximize the strength of the liner at the fold lines. The product is preferably produced on a narrow web press in a creasing station that includes a stack of rolls wherein a first die roll is on the bottom of the stack, a second die roll is on the top of the stack, and a pair of base rolls are located in the middle of the stack between the die rolls. A blade on each die roll cooperates with a cushion on the corresponding base roll to produce a crease during every other rotation of the die roll, each of the base rolls having a smaller circumference than its corresponding die roll. | 11-10-2011 |
| 20110244151 | MACHINE APPLICABLE NOTE-CARRIED LIQUID PACK - A note-carried liquid pack for application on an article by machine includes a base note layer with printed indicia on a top note face. The note-carried liquid pack also includes first and second fluid-impermeable, substantially transparent laminate layers overlying the base note layer. A first adhesive secures the first laminate layer to the base note layer, and a second adhesive secures the second laminate layer to the first laminate layer along an endless adhesive boundary. The endless adhesive boundary surrounds a central portion devoid of adhesive, in which the laminate layers define a liquid-holding pocket therebetween. A substantially transparent liquid is disposed within the pocket to be sealed therein so long as at least portions of the laminate layers adjacent the pocket remain secured to one another. The printed indicia is viewable through the laminate layers and through the pocket. A web label product including a plurality of note-carried liquid packs carried on an elongated liner is also disclosed. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20090058073 | Pressure-Sensitive Folded Label with No Base Carrier - A web label product comprises a series of folded labels releasably attached to an elongated liner so that the labels may be peeled off at high speeds and applied to a line of fast-moving web material, individual publications such as newspaper sections or magazines, or other articles. The folded labels are directly adhered to the liner without the use of an intermediate base carrier label and are correspondingly adapted for direct application to the articles without an intermediate base carrier label. A number of different embodiments are presented disclosing variations in the way of folding the labels and releasably maintaining them in such folded condition. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20080269036 | Method for using Fan-Folded Web of Pressure-Sensitive Labels - A label product in web form has alternating, oppositely indented creases in the liner of the product to produce a fan-folded stack having alternating, reversely folded plies. Each crease is substantially, if not entirely, perforation-free to maximize the strength of the liner at the fold lines. The product is preferably produced on a narrow web press in a creasing station that includes a stack of rolls wherein a first die roll is on the bottom of the stack, a second die roll is on the top of the stack, and a pair of base rolls are located in the middle of the stack between the die rolls. A blade on each die roll cooperates with a cushion on the corresponding base roll to produce a crease during every other rotation of the die roll, each of the base rolls having a smaller circumference than its corresponding die roll. | 10-30-2008 |
