Abstract

ABSTRACT
A method for manufacturing a tubular bag comprising a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film is disclosed. The composite film is withdrawn in cycles from a delivery roll and shaped into a tube in a mold and, as such, led to a sealing station in which the filled bags are formed by affixing a cross seal, by applying a polypropylene fabric, coated on both sides with polyethylene, to the composite film and fastening the fabric thereto, shaping the composite film into a tube, heat-sealing the polypropylene fabric to the composite film on both sides and punching a handle cut-out through the composite film and polypropylene fabric.

Description

~ ` 20007~4 This invention relates to a method ~or manufacturing a tubular bag comprising a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film in which the composite film is withdrawn from a dellvery roll in cycles and shaped into a tube in a mold and conveyed, as such, to a sealing station in which the filled bags are formed by affixing a cross seal.
Tubular bags formed from a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film can be used in numerous ways.
It is preferred that tubular bags of this type, which are made from a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film, be provided with a handle cut-out to facilitate transportation.
Tubular bags made from a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film manufactured hitherto have not been sufficiently sturdy to allow insertion of a handle cut-out; i.e. the handle cut-out would rip.
It is an object of the invention to provide a method for manufacturing a tubular bag from a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film which includes a sturdy handle cut-out.
According to the invention, this object is sought to be achieved through the application of a polypropylene fabric, coated on both sides with polyethylene, to the composite film and fastening the fabric thereto, shaping the composite film into a tube, heat-sealing the polypropylene fabric, to the composite film on both sides, and punching a handle cut-out through the composite film and polypropylene fabric.
It is, moreover, preferable that the polypropylene fabric be pulled off from a continuous roll and cut off after it has been applied to the composite film.
In a preferred embodiment the polypropylene fabric is affixed to the composite film by thermal action.
Moreover, it is preferable that the heat-sealing of the polypropylene fabric take place at the same time as the heat-sealing of the edge seam.
In drawings which illustrate embodiments of the invention, ~000714 Fig. 1 is a schematic illustration of the manufacturing method, Fig. 2 is a detail illustration of the sealing die, Fig. 3 is a tubular bag leaving the sealing station, and Fig. 4 is the tubular bag after the profile sealing and handle have been punched.
In the manufacture of the tubular bag of the present invention, a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film 10 is withdrawn from a delivery roll 12 in cycles. This composite film 10 is shaped, in a known manner, into a bag in a mold 14. After heat-sealing the edge seam extending along the length of the film, the bag is filled throughout the mold 14 and then provided with a cross seam in a sealing station 16, as a result of which individual bags are defined.
In order to provide the tubular bag with a handle cut-out, a polypropylene fabric, which is withdrawn from an additional delivery roll 20 and coated on both sides with polyethylene, is placed onto the composite film 10 pulled off from the delivery roll 12 and fastened to the composite film 10 by a sealing die 24. The fabric withdrawn from the roll 20 is cut by an appropriate device which, in the drawing, is schematically illustrated by scissors.
The film which is provided with a handle reinforcement 30 made of a polypropylene fabric is led in a conventional manner through mold 14 to sealing station 16.
The polypropylene fabric, which is coated on both sides with polyethylene, is heat-sealed to the surfaces of the polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film by appropriate means (not shown in detail in the drawings).
The heat-sealing is easily accomplished since, in the procedure, the polyethylene coating of the polypropylene fabric is merely heat-sealed to the polyethylene coating of the composite film.
Subsequently (or simultaneously with the heat-:. . ~ . .: . , ."~

Thus, according to the invention, a tubular bag made of a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film i9 made which is provided with a handle cut-out which facilitates transportation of the bag. In this instance, the polypropylene fabric forms a reinforcement for the handle so that one does not have to fear that the bag will rip in the area of the handle.
The heat-sealing of the polypropylene fabric can take place at the same time as or subsequent to the heat-sealing of the edge seam. The bag can be finished either in the tubular bag machine or in a separate machine.

Claims (4)

THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION IN WHICH AN EXCLUSIVE
PROPERTY OR PRIVILEGE IS CLAIMED ARE DEFINED AS FOLLOWS:
1. A method for manufacturing a tubular bag made of a polyethylene/paper-polyethylene composite film in which the composite film is pulled off in cycles from a delivery roll and shaped into a tube in a mold and is, as such, led to a sealing station in which the filled bags are formed by affixing a cross seal, including applying to the composite film a polypropylene fabric, coated on both sides with polyethylene, fastening the polypropylene fabric to the film prior to shaping it into a tube, shaping the composite film into a tube, heat-sealing the polypropylene fabric to the composite film on both sides, and punching a handle cut-out through the composite film and the polypropylene fabric.
2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polypropylene fabric is withdrawn from a continuous roll and is cut off after it has been applied to the composite film.
3. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polypropylene fabric is fastened to the composite film by thermal action.
4. A method as claimed in claim 1 and 2, wherein the heat-sealing of the polypropylene fabric takes place simultaneously with the heat-sealing of the edge seam.
