Abstract
Abstract A prefolded roll of film material for garment holding bags is folded along a pair of longitudinally extending folded edges forming three longitudinally extending portions. One portion is disposed between the two folded edges. The remaining two portions are folded over the first portion so as to be disposed adjacent one another. In a second embodiment a fourth portion extends from a third longitudinally extending folded edge for forming garment bags with inner and outer pockets. In the alternative, rolls of completed bags may be formed by perforating, folding and seaming the strip of material before it is put into rolls.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
197 words
In a garment bag, a front sheet, a back sheet, means for permanently securing together the top edges, the bottom edges, and the edges on one side of each of the front and back sheets together, said other side edges of the front and back sheet members being unsecured to provide an opening, a sheet panel having one edge fixed to the edge of the back sheet adjacent to the opening and having its sheet and and lower edges respectively fixed to the top and bottom edges of the front sheet so as to overlie the front sheet, the upper edges being secured together by a pair of seams which meet at a point midway between the side edges of the bag and slope from this point at an acute angle with respect to a transverse line on the bag so as to form edges adapted to lie on the inclined upper surfaces of a garment hanger, whereby a garment may be inserted into the bag by inserting it between the flap and the front sheet and the back sheet, the flap normally lying in abutment to the front sheet to prevent the entrance of dust therein.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
143 words
A prefolded roll of flexible sheet material from which garment-holding bags may be formed, comprising: a strip of said material with first and second longitudinally extending folded edges and first, second and third Longitudinally extending portions, said first and second edges forming the two longitudinally extending sides of the roll, said first portion extending from said first edge, said second portion being formed between said first and second edges, and said third portion extending from said second edge and being disposed adjacent said first portion and overlying part of said first portion, and transversely extending first perforations and transversely extending first seams formed on said roll, said perforations being formed across the entire width of the roll at longitudinally spaced intervals, and said seams being formed adjacent each perforation on both sides thereof to form the top and bottom of a garment bag.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
143 words
A prefolded roll of flexible sheet material from which garment-holding bags may be formed, comprising: a strip of said material with first and second longitudinally extending folded edges and first, second and third Longitudinally extending portions, said first and second edges forming the two longitudinally extending sides of the roll, said first portion extending from said first edge, said second portion being formed between said first and second edges, and said third portion extending from said second edge and being disposed adjacent said first portion and overlying part of said first portion, and transversely extending first perforations and transversely extending first seams formed on said roll, said perforations being formed across the entire width of the roll at longitudinally spaced intervals, and said seams being formed adjacent each perforation on both sides thereof to form the top and bottom of a garment bag.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
91 words
The roll of material of claim 2 including a fourth portion extending from said first edge, and lying between said first portion and said second portion, and further including second perforations formed adjacent each first perforation across the fourth portion and the part of the first portion adjacent the fourth portion, and second transversely extending seams, formed adjacent each second perforation and extending across said fourth portion and the part of the first portion adjacent the fourth portion so as to form an inner pocket between the first and fourth portions.
