Abstract

Abstract A document carrier assembly for processing a plurality of documents through a microfilming machine is provided which includes a web of paper having an upper and lower surface, at least the upper surface having a low tack adhesive layer applied thereon; a liner overlying the upper surface of the web and the low tack adhesive layer, the liner having a self-contained carbonless coating on an upper surface thereof; and a clear plastic film overlying the liner. The carrier assembly may be formed with a mirror image construction on the opposite side thereof to create a double sided carrier.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 24
Claim 1
Independent Claim 93 words
A document carrier assembly for processing a plurality of documents through a microfilming machine comprising; a web of paper having an upper and lower surface, at least said upper surface having a low tack adhesive layer applied thereon; a liner overlying said upper surface of the web and said low tack adhesive layer so as to releasably secure said liner to said web, said liner having a self-contained carbonless coating on an upper surface thereof; a clear plastic film overlying said liner; and means for adhering said clear plastic film to said liner.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 93 words
A document carrier assembly for processing a plurality of documents through a microfilming machine comprising; a web of paper having an upper and lower surface, at least said upper surface having a low tack adhesive layer applied thereon; a liner overlying said upper surface of the web and said low tack adhesive layer so as to releasably secure said liner to said web, said liner having a self-contained carbonless coating on an upper surface thereof; a clear plastic film overlying said liner; and means for adhering said clear plastic film to said liner.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The document carrier assembly according to claim 1 wherein said means for adhering said clear plastic film to said liner comprises adhesive extending along aligned edges of said film and said liner.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The document carrier assembly according to claim 1 wherein said aligned edges lie transverse to a pair of longitudinally extending side edges.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
The document carrier assembly according to claim 2 wherein said liner includes a slit line adjacent and parallel to said one edge, thereby defining a marginal edge portion and enabling removal of said liner from said carrier.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
