  • Patent number: 7306690
    Abstract: A facestock releasably adhered to a liner sheet is die cut to form one or two compact disc labels, and two diametrically opposed tabs on each compact disc label and located so that one edge of the tab is in contact with one of the compact disc labels and is perforated. The liner side of the tab also has a die cut patterned so that it generally follows the outline of the tab, but which forms a shape which is inside of and slightly smaller than the face cut tab pattern. After the label sheet has passed through a printer or copier and the desired indicia has been printed on the labels, at least one of the tabs is pushed through from the reverse side of the sheet, or pulled through via a sheet opening partially separating the tab from the rest of the sheet. The tab, which is mostly free of exposed adhesive in that it is still laminated to the die cut section of release liner, is then grasped from the face side, and lifted upward, pulling the compact disc label away from the label sheet.

  • Patent number: 7275678
    Abstract: A printable sheet including one or more envelope assemblies formed thereon, each having a central body panel, an end flap, a pair of opposing top and bottom panels, a business card removably attached and incorporated into the bottom panel, and a retaining flap. The sheet is capable of being placed in a printer to have images and/or indicia printed on the envelope assemblies. Each envelope assembly is capable can be removed from the printable sheet and folded along weakened lines, and adhered to itself to form a secure sleeve or envelope for holding various items. Each envelope has a retaining flap on the open end that can be tucked into the envelope after insertion of its contents in order to retain the contents, which could either be used or removed if desired. The envelope could be designed to readily hold business card compact discs. The business card can be subsequently separated by the user from the formed envelope.

  • Patent number: 6845864
    Abstract: A dual pocket or envelope for CDs or DVDs is formed of two standard letter size sheets of 8½?×11? or A-4 size paper, which are bonded together around the edges of the sheets and centrally to divide the sheet assembly into two pockets which are substantially square to hold the discs. One of the sheets is die cut to form the upper edge of the pockets, with a closure flap also being formed above each pocket. Each closure flap may be held in the closed position by mechanical interlinking with the pocket, or by exposed pressure sensitive adhesive, which is enabled and exposed by the removal of a release coated slip of paper from one of the two sheets. An index tab may be die cut from said sheets above the open edge of each pocket.

  • Publication number: 20040101646
    Abstract: A facestock releasably adhered to a liner sheet is die cut to form one or two compact disc labels (820), and two diametrically opposed tabs (840 or 844) on each compact disc label (820) and located so that one edge of the tab (840 or 844) is in contact with one of the compact disc labels (820) and is perforated (830 or 834). The liner side of the tab (840 or 844) also has a die cut patterned so that it generally follows the outline of the tab (840 or 844), but which forms a shape which is inside of and slightly smaller than the face cut tab pattern. After the label sheet has passed through a printer or copier and the desired indicia has been printed on the labels (820), at least one of the tabs (840 or 844) is pushed through from the reverse side of the sheet (800), or pulled through via a sheet opening partially separating the tab (840 or 844) from the rest of the sheet (800).

  • Patent number: 6672355
    Abstract: A device for applying a non-circular adhesive label to a non-circular optical disc includes a disc support moveable between the first position supporting the disc in a spaced apart relationship with a label and a second position enabling contact between the label and the disc. An arm is provided and moveable with the disc support for compacting the disc and aligning the disc with a label as the disc is moved from the first position to the second position.
