DESCRI_I'ION
BO I L I N BAG PO UCH
05 Technical Field The present invention relates to the packaging of rehydratable food products in a permeable, fle~c-ible bag which is -to be immersed in a pot of boil-ing water. Generally after cooking, the bag is 1() removed from the pot, either 'beEore or after the heated water is poured from the pot, and the 'bag i.5 allowed to drain either in the pot or ~hile being suspended by some }citchen utensil such as tongs. As will be appreciated, draining will be effected more quickly :if t'he bag is suspended 'by its top as oppos-ed to merely being left to drain in the pot.
'It has been found that strength of boil-in-bag pouches made from thin permeable (e.g. mesh, perfor-ated, retic-ulated, etc.) films of thermoplastic 20 material have a relatively low resistance to -tear-ing. This can constitute a safety hazzard if these bags are lifted out of a pot o~ boiling water by means of an implement which is inserted through the bag either by punc-turing the bag or by passing through an aperture provided in the bag. Should the bag tear as it is being lifted from the pot and the bag fall back into the pot, boiling water could be splashed onto the consumer.
~ ~l3~
The prob~Lem witll tearing bags -is of 'less c<)n-cern for bo:i~L-in-bag pouches made from re'Lati~ely--th:ick ancl costly ancl/or non-permeab~Le plastic Eilms.
These type pouches have previously been prov:ided 05 with fork li~t slots at: one or both ends to permit the consumer to reaclily ancl safely remove the bag from boiling water.
Disclosure of the Invention _ _ This invention is directed to the use of light-weight, economical and/or permeable films, with a base sheet caliper of less than about 0.05 or 0.06 mm., to form into boil-in-bag pouches which are provided with fork lift slots at one or 'bo-th ends of the pouch. The pouch design of this invention incorporates a wide, overlapping, longitudinal seam in order to provide a three-ply structure in the lift slot areas and thereby o'btain rein~orcement against tearing in these areas.
The pouches produced in accordance with this invention are made from a single web of heat seal-able material using conventiona1 vertical form/fill/
seal pouch equipment which is well known to those skilled in the art. This equipment is available commercially from a number of sources, one being Triangle Machine Co., Chicago, Illinois. One exam-ple of such a unit is disclosed in U.S. Patent No.

The essential elements of this invention are -the provision for a wide overlapping longitudinal seam on the pouch, spaced-apart longitudinal seals toward each edge of the overlapped web, and at least one generally-horizontal aperture (e.g. slit) to 'be used as a fork lift slot and located at one or both ends of the pouch within -the overlapped seam and between tlle spaced~apa-rt long:i.tud:i.na'l. seals Typical.Ly, the di.stance between the space(l-al)art longitudinal seals will extend ~or at 'Least 2.5~ cm, preferably at least 3.5 cm and typically aboul: 4.5 05 cm. The horizontal aperture should be at le~st 1.9 cm in l.ength and tvpically will 'be at least ahout
The essential elements of this invention are -the provision for a wide overlapping longitudinal seam on the pouch, spaced-apart longitudinal seals toward each edge of the overlapped web, and at least one generally-horizontal aperture (e.g. slit) to 'be used as a fork lift slot and located at one or both ends of the pouch within -the overlapped seam and between tlle spaced~apa-rt long:i.tud:i.na'l. seals Typical.Ly, the di.stance between the space(l-al)art longitudinal seals will extend ~or at 'Least 2.5~ cm, preferably at least 3.5 cm and typically aboul: 4.5 05 cm. The horizontal aperture should be at le~st 1.9 cm in l.ength and tvpically will 'be at least ahout
3.0 cm. The fork lift slots will usually be located above or wi.thin the transverse seals which de:Eine the food containing chamber, -there'by avoiding any problem of food particles passing out of the pouch through these slots. It would o:E course 'be possible to place the fork lift slots within the food contain-ing chamber by burning the slot through the pouch structure in such a manner that -the edges of the slot are welded together.
The wide overlapped seam is sea:Led w:ith at least two, relatively narrow, spaced-apart longitu-dinal seals, with at least one seal at or c:Lose to each edge o:E the overlapped web. Narrow seals are desirable so as to preserve, a.s much as poss:ible, the porosity of the pouch. Narrow seals are clesirw ably made by the use of impulse or induction seal:ing equipment which i.s known to those skilled in the art as being par-ticularly suited for heat sealing unsup-por-ted thermoplastic films. According to this invention, two pairs of induction sealing bars may be utilizecl to provide two, continuo-us, longitudinal seals at each edge of the overlapped web. Altern-a-tively, the seal.s may be formed by resistance sealing bars which have a release coating.
In order to provide a we'b material having sufficient s-tr-uctural strength to function as a boil-in-bag pouch and to retain all of the food prod-uc-t within the pouch, the web will typically contain a uni.form distribution of relatively small perforations or openings. The openings may be in the or(ler of abo~t :L.5 mrn (().06 -in) or less with the web hav:ing an open area of from abowt 5 to 50%, preferably in e~cess of 20%. By means o~ this invention, films having either reduced thickness 05 and/or increased open area may be utilized without decreasing the tear strength of the pouch at the fork lift sLots. A preferred embodiment of this invention utilizes an embossed polyethylene filrn having a base sheet thickness of abowt 0.043 mm, an embosed film thickness of abou-t 0.5 mm and an open area of approximately 35% comprised of about 55 holes per cm2 with each hole having a diameter of about 0.75 mm.
The porosity oE the pouch will generally be reduced if not eliminated in the immediate area of the heat seal. Thus, the use of a single wide heat seal, extending to width of the overlapped seam, is to be avoided since the flow of water into and out of the bag during cook:ing and draining wo-ulcl be red-lcecl. A wide seal would also require a higher energy input than the narrow, spaced-apart seals oE
this invention.
It would also be desirable to have the top an bottom of each pouch sealed by means of two, narrow, spaced-apart horizontal seals as opposed to single, wide top and bottom seals. The horizontal apertures or fork lift slots would be positioned between these seals. Sealing bars for forming the -top and bottom seals can be mounted for reciprocal motion into and out of engagement wi-th a continuous stream of over-lapped web material, and these bars may contain cooling means~ such as circulating chilled water.
In this manner the seal is cooled and set prior to the bars being opened and the risk of the seal being pulled apart as the sealing bars are moved out of engagement w-itll the pouch i6 redUCe(l. li would also be possib:Le to obtain seals at the top and bottom eclge o:E each pouch by usirlg a hot wire cwtof~ be-tween pouches.
05 The boi.1 in bag pouch of th:is invention is inost suitable for partic~llate, dried food rrlaterial which is to be rehyclrated during cooking. Such materials as uncooked or partially-cooked rice, pasta, dried beans, lentils and the like, may be used in conjunc-tion with the pouch of this inven-tion.
Description of Drawings Fig. 1 depicts the method of Eorming the boil-in-bag pouch of this invention, clearly illustrating the formation of the wide, overlapped, ].ongitudinal seam .
Fig. 2 depicts a specific embodiinent o-E the boil-in-'bag pouch of this invention illwstrating two narrow spaced-apart, longitudinal seals as well as two, narrow, spaced apart transverse seals at both the top and 'bottom ends of the powch.
Best Mode :Eor Carrying Out the Tnvention As shown in Fig. 1 a single we'b (l) of a per-merable heat sealable material is drawn around aforming/filling tube (2) in a manner such that the edges of the web (3 and ~) are overlapped and form a two-ply region (5) e~tending in the logitudinal direction. The edges of the overlapped web are then heat-sealed to the web by means of a conventional heated rolls or parallel impul.se sealing bars (not shown). Fig. 1 also clepicts the completed bottom end of a pouch consisting of two, spaced apart transverse heat seals (6 and 7) which could be conveniently made by two sets of parallel sealing bars. A~ls0 shown i.n this f:igwre :is a fork :litt slot (8) positioned between the spaced-apart longituclinal seals so that the slot -is Eorrned tllrough three pl.ys of the web mater:ial.
05 Fig. 2 depicts a completed boil-:in-bag pouch showing spaced apart traverse seals at both the top (9, 10) and bottom (6,7) of the bag as well as two spaced apart longitudinal heat seals (12,13) which form the wide ove-r].apped seam of the invention. In operation, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the ar-t, the bottom seals (6,7) and bottom fork lift slot (8) of one pouch can be formed at the same time the top seals (9,10) and top fork lift opening (11) are being formed in a lower adjacent pouch.
Severing of the pouches from each other may also be effected at this time. ~s earlier noted, :in lieu o:E
end seals positi.oned at 7 and 9, it would be possi-ble to simultaneously obtain seals at the to~p and bottom edges of adjacent bags and sever adjacent bags by pass:i.ng a hot wire between two acljacent pouches. ~s is wel1 known to those skilled in the art, the form/fill/seal sequence used in the process of this invention proceeds with at least one bottom seal being formed in each consecutive pouch prio:r to the pouch receiving the food product from tube (2) and thereafter at least one top seal is formed. The spaced-apart longitudinal seals are formed continu-ously as the web material passes suitable sealing means.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is:
