Abstract
Abstract The present invention is directed to a single sheet sandpaper delivery system which includes at least one stackable tray having a support surface, with at least two sides, wherein one of each said sides is connected an opposing edge portion of the support surface and extends generally normal thereto, and wherein the support surface has an edge portion laterally spacing the sides. The present invention further includes at least one sandpaper package having housing portion of a size and configuration slightly less than the support surface of the tray, at least two flap portions of a predetermined length and width which are bendably connected to the housing portion, and at least two second flaps, one of each of the second flaps bendably connected to the first flaps and foldable to connect to one another and form the package, and further including a novel sandpaper sheet having a first side of sufficient porosity to maintain a coat of adhesive material and a second side sufficiently nonporous to accept a printed ink bar code with minimal diffusion to provide an overall improved and readable bar code.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
A sandpaper sheet comprising: a substrate having a first side of sufficient porosity to maintain a coat of adhesive material and a second side sufficiently nonporous to accept a printed ink bar code with minimal diffusion to provide an overall improved and readable bar code; a base adhesive coat substantially covering and penetrating said first side of said substrate; an abrasive grit material dispersed over and bonded to said base adhesive coat and said first side of said substrate; and an ink printed bar code on said second side of said substrate, wherein said ink is of a high solids content and high dry weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
105 words
A sandpaper sheet comprising: a substrate having a first side of sufficient porosity to maintain a coat of adhesive material and a second side sufficiently nonporous to accept a printed ink bar code with minimal diffusion to provide an overall improved and readable bar code; a base adhesive coat substantially covering and penetrating said first side of said substrate; an abrasive grit material dispersed over and bonded to said base adhesive coat and said first side of said substrate; and an ink printed bar code on said second side of said substrate, wherein said ink is of a high solids content and high dry weight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The sandpaper sheet of claim 1, wherein said substrate is further characterized to be of a bleached kraft paper.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
The sandpaper sheet of claim 1, wherein said substrate is of a bleached upgrade cabinet paper.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
The sandpaper sheet of claim 1, wherein said substrate is a waterproof latex paper material and said base adhesive includes an amount of opacifier necessary to increase bar code readability without substantially affecting integrity of said sandpaper sheet.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
157 words
A sandpaper sheet having an ink bar coding printed thereon with an overall acceptable and readable scan analysis profile wherein said sheet is made of: a paper selected from one of kraft and an upgrade cabinet paper with at least one side supercalendered to cause sufficient closure of porosity of said side and provide said side with a surface smoothness of about 200-300 ml/min. Bendtsen (Scan-P21:67) to provide a paper substrate having one surface suitable for printing a readable bar code thereon and leaving another surface sufficiently porous to readily and effectively adhere an adhesive and grit thereto; said supercalendered side of said sheet having an ink printed bar code thereon comprised of a high solids and high solvent contents ink; another side of said sheet comprised of an adhesive material, with an abrasive grit applied to said adhesive material, which is cured with said ink printed bar code thereon to provide said bar coded sandpaper sheet.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
157 words
A sandpaper sheet having an ink bar coding printed thereon with an overall acceptable and readable scan analysis profile wherein said sheet is made of: a paper selected from one of kraft and an upgrade cabinet paper with at least one side supercalendered to cause sufficient closure of porosity of said side and provide said side with a surface smoothness of about 200-300 ml/min. Bendtsen (Scan-P21:67) to provide a paper substrate having one surface suitable for printing a readable bar code thereon and leaving another surface sufficiently porous to readily and effectively adhere an adhesive and grit thereto; said supercalendered side of said sheet having an ink printed bar code thereon comprised of a high solids and high solvent contents ink; another side of said sheet comprised of an adhesive material, with an abrasive grit applied to said adhesive material, which is cured with said ink printed bar code thereon to provide said bar coded sandpaper sheet.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
The sandpaper sheet of claim 5, wherein said sheet is further characterized to include a resin sizing coat applied subsequently to the step of drying and further includes another step of drying said resin sized sheet.
