' To all whomit may concern:
' cleanliness and antiseptic qualities,
' qualit of a textile fabric,
Be it :known that I, ARTHUR .H.-ScoTr, a citizen ofthe United States and a resident of Oak Lane, county of Philadelphia, State otPennsylvania, have .invented an 'Im rovement in Paper Towels, of which the ollowin .is a specification.
y invention has reference to paper towels. and consists of certain improvements which are fully set forth in the following specification and shown in the accompanying drawings which form apart thereof.
The object vofmy invention is to provide a cheap form of toweling, formed from paper and adapted for all general use of the,
and general use with an embodiment of My object is also to form the toweling in rolls, so that. only one-towel at a time can be exposed and detached; and moreover I preferto provide the towel with an attached strip of soap-suds roducing material which may be detached 'rom the towel after it is detached from .the roll-and used;preliminary tothe dryimg purposes of the towel.
In carrying out my invention, I form a j web of paper-into a roll, the said web of, aper having transverse perforationsat initervals, to enable the successive portions of j the web to be'detached from the roll to pro- I videindependenttowels, as may be-required; and moreover, the said web of pa er is made ofa I orous character having 'llttle sizing and oi a crinkled character, for the purpose of increasing the absorbent ualities within agiven area, and also for so tening the texture of the vpapcnto'impart to it.more or less that is'to say, one capab e-of be {g1 thoroughl flexible in all directions. I, rther, pre er to form the said webof paper with additional perforations to provide a strip adjacent to each towelportion, which strip isdetachable-from the towel and is coated or impregnated with a soap substance and normally dry, but which may produce a lather when the strip is removed from thctowel and employed in connection with water for performing the functions of a cake of soap preliminary to the useof the towel for drying purposes.
My invention further comprehends a towel of the above character when having its crinkled surfaces provided with a coatin of talcum or other suitable powder.
y invention also comprehends details of construction which together with the features above specifie will 'be better understood by reference to the drawings, 'in which:--.
. Figure 1 .is an .elevation of a roll of my lmproved toweling, partly unrolled, to expose a complete towel; Flg. 2'is a side elevation of the same; Fig. 3 is a cross section .of a portion of the toweling to indicate the crinkled form of the paper and a coating ofpowderlthereon; 'Fignt is a front elevation of a roll of my improved towelin showing a modified construction thereo and Fig. '5 is. an end view of a modified form of my invention.
A, is the rolled web of the paper and this web is divided at intervals throughout its length 'by'transverselincisions or weakened parts, indicated at C and producing between the successive incisions -or perforations the individual towel portions .B.
I The pa er from which this toweling is made is o a veryporous character, havin but little sizing and having a finished crinkled-condition of the body so as toproduce 1 greatly increased surface within a given area relatively to what-wouldbe'had if the ,paper were perfectlysmooth. This crinkled condition of the paper not only gives a greater absorbent capacity to a towel of a given size because of the increased surface exposed ,'.but also increases theabsorbent qualities by reason of the fact that innumerable depressions or pocketsare formed .by the crinkled structure of the paper which will retain and hold moisture by capillary action in addition to the said absorbent qualities.
The absorbent ualities of the crinkled paper .is.s'till 'furt er enhanced by coating the surfaces of .the .paper with finely pulverized talcum powder or other equivalent which, while :not adding greatly to the thickness, will be retained within the depressions or pockets and will provide soothmgefi'ect of the paper upon the face and hands in addition to capacity for absorbing the moisture. A paper of this character tion of the successivetowels so thatra pull;
upon the liberated towel will detach it from the remaining web in the roll form andi' without inducing an objectionable unwinding-of the roll, the :obje'ctbeing to only iii-J duce the detachment of one towel at a time.
In many places of use of such towels the fibsenoe ofa soap renders it important that provision shall be made for roviding az cleansing lather to facilitate the washing,-
preliminary to the use of the towel as a drymg medium, and to provide such means l.I may form the 'web of pjaper near one ed e thereof with a line of perforations E exten i'ng throughout the length of the web and&
coat or impregnate the strip of tween said line of perforations an of the web with a soap material which may (paper bethe edge be applied, if desired, as a paste or in liquid I form to impregnate the paper and coat the Y surface thereof among the depressions or pockets formed by the crinkled structure of the paper, such strip of soap-suds producing material being indicated at-D. In practice,
' the towel portion B, with the attached strip D, is broken off from the web on the perfo rated line C and then the strip Distorn from the towel proper B and is used with g water for the purpose of providing the soapsuds. 'lhe towelpart B is thus isolated from the soap and may be used freely for drying I the skin, If desired, the line of perforations E, instead of being lengthwise of the web, as shown in Fig. 1, may be arranged transi versely thereof at intervals adjacent to the transverse lines of incisions C, as clearly indicated in Fig. 4 in which E is the trans- ,verse line of perforations, and D is the transverse strip of soap prepared paper. In
- this construction, shown in Fig. 4, it is desirable that the incisions at 0 shall be weaker than the perforations at E so that in detaching a sheet the strip of soap paper will be removed with the towel. This might be improved somewhat if the web was wound in the reverse direction to what is shown in Fig. 4:, in which case the soap paper strip would come at the bottom of the towel, but I do not restrict myself in this respect.
While ordinarily, a single ply towel may be amply suflicient to secure the desirable absorbent qualities, I provide in other cases an extra capacity for absorbing moisture by making the web in double layers or two-ply and perforated as before, so that two sheets or plies, superimposed one upon the other, are removed at one time and used as a single towel. This is-shown in Fig. 5, in which A is the roll, B is the two-ply towel, and O are the perforations or weakened porinoaaoa tions. These erforations or incisions ate preferably ma e at exactly the same place l'n'bfl l-ll ilies, assloy. cutting throu h ..-them both at t 'e sa'ni'e timeiwith asihg l .ncutter. The twogply towel has greater absorbent capacity; M an a; singleply towel of the same weight and is moreover far more flexible and-pleasant to use.
Having now described my invention; what I claim as new and desire to secureqby laet ters a ent i 1.
