Abstract:
A CD carrier for insertion into a book, the CD carrier comprising:a single paperboard sheet, the sheet having a first face and a second face, the sheet further including a plurality of hinge lines dividing the sheet into a plurality of panels, each of the panels having first and second faces corresponding to the first and second faces of the sheet, and wherein: a first panel and a second panel are separated by a first hinge line, the first panel being foldable along the first hinge line to a folded position adjacent the second panel to form a pocket therebetween, the pocket being sized to receive a CD therein; a third panel separated from the second panel by a second hinge line; a fourth panel separated from the third panel by a third hinge line, the first, second and third hinge lines being generally parallel to each other; a fifth panel separated from the third panel by a fourth hinge line, the fourth hinge line being perpendicular to the first, second and third hinge lines; and a tear away strip, the tear away strip defined in part by cooperating frangible connections on each of the third and fourth panels; whereby the CD carrier is formed by folding the first panel along the first hinge line to create the pocket, folding the fifth panel along the fourth hinge line thereby positioning the second face of the first panel side by side with the second face of the fifth panel, folding the first and second panels together along the second hinge line until the second face of the first panel is in confronting relationship with the second face of the fifth panel, and then folding the fourth panel along the third hinge line so that an overlapping edge portion of the fourth panel overlaps the second panel but is unsecured to the second panel, and wherein cooperating portions of the fourth panel and the second panel form a binding face adapted to permit adhesive securement of the CD carrier to the book.
