ABSTRACT:
The invention is an improvement over my copending application Ser. No. 951,569 filed Oct. 15, 1978 now U.S. Pat. No. 4,223,423, granted Sept. 23, 1980, and relates to a sealing device, which is particularly useful with a receptacle, such as a cloth bank bag for containing money or currency. The sealing device comprises a single strip or band of material made of metal or plastic and formed with teeth or serrations, which extend from one side of the band and includes locking projections engaging with the teeth or serrations in an improved manner for securing the band in its closed position. The locking teeth are stamped, or otherwise formed in the material near one end of the band, so that the other end of the band may be inserted through slits in the band, whereby a number of teeth engage with locking elements when the band is tightened around the neck of the bag. Movement of the end of the band is thereby prevented in the direction which would unlock the seal but is freely permitted in the other direction for the extent of the teeth so that a tight seal may be accomplished. Once sealed, the sealing device cannot be released without tearing or mutilating the bag material or damaging the sealing device.
