Definitions

  • Fibrous core as used herein means a tubular structure that comprises one or more fibers, such as is commonly used for bath tissue and paper towels. The present disclosure is an improvement over known fibrous cores.
  • a fibrous core 10 comprising have a liner 16 having a basis weight of about 60 lbs/3000 sq. ft. and a fluted layer 12 having a basis weight of about 60 lbs/3000 sq. ft. (total basis weight of 120 lbs/3000 sq.
  • the overlap portion 46 can have a height H of about two times the thickness t of the single face corrugate material 18, as shown in Figs. 5A and 5B .
  • the first edge 38 can abut the second edge to form a seam 24.
  • Each of the plurality of flutes 11 has a flute axis 13.
  • the flute axis 13 can be parallel to the longitudinal core axis 20, as shown in Fig. 8B , or at some angle to the longitudinal core axis 20.
  • Fig. 11A illustrates a cross sectional view of the fibrous core 10 of Fig. 11 that comprises an adhesive 50.
  • the adhesive 50 can be applied prior to winding the fibrous core 10 on the mandrel.
  • the adhesive 50 can be present on one or both of the leading edge 21 and the trailing edge 23.
  • the adhesive can be present on about 20% to about 100% of the overlap portion 46.
  • the adhesive can be present on the entire width 25 of the overlap portion 46. More specifically, the adhesive 50 can extend from the leading edge 21 over the distance of the overlap width 25 to the trailing edge 23.
  • the adhesive 50 can be present on 50% of the overlap width 25 such that a portion of the overlap width 25 is substantially free of adhesive 50.
  • the adhesive 50 can be applied such that the portion of adhesive that binds the overlap portion is activated at the time of winding, for example by heat, steam, or liquid, and the portion of adhesive that extends from the seam 24 on the outer surface 14 of the fibrous core 10 is not activated until just prior to the rolled sheet product 52 being removably bound to the fibrous core 10.
  • the one or more indicia 60 present on the first strip face 70 can be at an angle P substantially equal to about 45 degrees from the strip axis 36 to a bisecting line 62 such that when the strip 34 is helically wound at a 45 degree angle to form a fibrous core 10 comprising an outer surface 14 including one or more indicia 60, the one or more indicia 60 on the outer surface 14 can be at a reading orientation when the fibrous core 10 is in a dispensing position, as shown in Fig. 16 .
  • the inner surface 22 of the fibrous core 10 can comprise one or more indicia 60, and the viewable face 76 of the packaging material 78 can allow a consumer to see the one or more indicia 52 on the fibrous core 10 substantially surrounded by the packaged article 74.
  • the one or more indicia 60 can be seen by a consumer at any orientation while the packaged article 74 is on a surface such as a pallet or store shelf.
  • the one or more indicia 60 can be at a reading orientation while the packaged article 74 is placed on a substantially horizontal surface such as a store shelf or a pallet.
  • the one or more indicia 60 can be seen at a reading orientation by a consumer viewing the rolled sheet product in the packaged article 74 on the horizontal surface.
  • a fibrous core 10 can comprise one or more indicia 60 disposed on at least one of the inner surface 22 and the outer surface 14 and a rolled sheet product 52 wound about the outer surface 14.
  • the rolled sheet product 52 can comprise one or more indicia 60.
  • the one or more indicia 60 disposed on the rolled sheet product 52 can be printed and/or embossed, for example.
  • the one or more indicia 60 disposed on the rolled sheet product 52 can be similar to or the same as the one or more indicia disposed on at least one of the inner surface 22 and the outer surface 14 of the fibrous core 10.
  • the two packages of paper towels 80 shown in Figure 25 can differ in their bulk density, i.e., how tightly the sanitary tissue products for each are wound onto their respective fibrous cores 10.
  • the package of paper towels designated as 86 can be a relatively loosely wound roll of paper towels
  • the package of paper towels designated as 88 can be a relatively tightly wound roll of paper towels.
  • the package of paper towels designated as 86 can have a fibrous core 10 having a relatively higher axial strength relative to the fibrous core of the package of paper towels designated as 88.
  • the package of paper towels designated as 88 can have a fibrous core 10 having a relatively lower axial strength relative to the fibrous core 10 of the package of paper towels designated as 86.
  • the two packaged articles 74 can have the same or similar, or, at minimum, sufficient axial compression resistance to be stacked and shipped on pallets without damage.
