ABSTRACT:
A rail structure usable in the manufacture of packaged goods in matchbook-like form, especially threadlike goods such as dental floss. The rail structure conforms to attachment tooling and matchbook cover design constraints relating to similar rail structure used in the manufacture of matchbooks. The rail structure can accommodates either horizontal or vertical winding processes, according to the particular rail structure used for securing the threadlike article. The structure used for horizontal winding is an elongated rail structure formed having alternating article support portions separated by alternating notches. The matchbook-like array is formed by two side by side arrangement of the horizontally wound rail structure. The rail structure used for vertical winding is an elongated rail having upper and lower notches for securing the threadlike article. The lower notches have a deep V-shape portion for ease of detachment of the threadlike articles.
