Definitions

  • the present invention relate to methods and systems for preparing a thermoplastic sack, and, more particularly, to methods and systems for preparing such a sack having at least a substantially flat rectangular bottom.
  • European Patent Application 0 021 463 discloses a method of producing a web of a plurality of interconnected plastics bags with gusset folds, at least comprising a central and two outer longitudinal gusset fold edges, which bound a first and a second gusset fold part by providing a continuously supplied tubular plastics foil by heatsealing with a first transverse bottom seal which extends across the entire width of the tubular foil and moving the tubular foil over a predetermined distance to another sealing position characterised in that
  • European Patent Application 0 064 321 discloses a web of a plurality of interconnected plastics bags with gusset foil formed from a tubular foil, at least comprising a central and two outer longitudinal gusset foil edges which bound a first and a second gusset fold part, each bag of said web comprising
  • the present invention is concerned with the method of continuously preparing, at least substantially flat, rectangular bottom, thermoplastic film sack comprising:
  • This invention also provides a system for preparing an at least substantially flat, rectangular-bottom, thermoplastic film sack comprising in combination:
  • FIG. 1 there is illustrated a system and process sequence 50 for forming a handled, gusseted flat-bottomed thermoplastic sack.
  • a hollow cylinder or tube of thermoplastic film 12 is in the process of being collapsed by being passed through a combined gusset forming and gusset opening means 14.
  • This device can be of any construction which accomplishes the steps of collapsing the tube, forming oppositely disposed gussets therein and opening one fold of each gusset to the maximum so that they are spread open in a lay-flat position.
  • the gusset which normally is foled upon itself at an acute angle approaching 0 ° , is opened by flipping or turning one of the folds over so that the gusset lays flat at an angle approaching 180 ° .
  • this step can be accomplished simultaneously. If both gussets are small enough, they can be opened completely side-by-side in a lay-flat position. As the gusset depth increases only one gusset fold can be opened at a time. As shown in Figure 1, and as suggested by the mid-fold line 16, both gussets were opened completely by the gusset forming and opening means 14.
  • gussets In a situation where the gussets are too large to be able to be opened side-by-side, they can be opened spatially sequentially. By this is meant, first one gusset will be opened as the tube progresses means 14 and at a point downstream in the system, after the first gusset returns to its closed position, the opposite gusset will be opened by an equivalent means to the lay-flat position.
  • device 14 can be a sheet- metal device which has an entrance side for receiving a flexible tube of cylindrical film. Sheet metal plates therein cause an infolding or gusset to be fashioned in the structure as the tube passes therethrough. The exit dimension progressively diminishes to present a fully collapsed gusseted tube. This device contains turning plates or rolls so that after the gusset is formed, the upper fold is progressively opened until it assumes a lay-flat, 180 ° position.
  • the gusset or gussets are opened so that a pair of diagonal sealed seams can be impressed in each of the four gusset folds as shown at 20.
  • This is accomplished by means of a heat-sealing member 18 which includes Teflon-coated resistance wires heated to a temperature which will permit the two layers of each of the four gusset folds to be heat sealed together.
  • the diagonal sealed seams extend over the portions of the tube width corresponding to the gussets along lines diagonal to the length of the tube. The seal-pairs of each gusset in the lay-flat position form an angle of approximately 90 ° to one another.
  • a gusset closing device 22 flips or turns the open gusset and folds it back to the closed position so that the angle therebetween again approaches 0°. In this position the sealed seams 20 of each gusset are superimposed and in registration with one another.
  • bottom seal 24 which simultaneously seals and severs the bottom of the gusseted structure. This is accomplished by means of bottom sealing and severing device 26.
  • Seal line 24 is a transverse sealing and severing seam which extends across and through the collapsed tube along a line which in- dudes the inboard ends 28 of each pair of diagonal seams.
  • Transverse sealing and severing device 26 can be any suitable means which will bond and sever the collapsed tube along the defined line. This sealing and severing action will isolate sack blank 30 from the collapsed and gusseted tube. Sack blank 30 will have a seal 32 across the top thereof and the four triangular regions 34 will be bounded by seal lines 20, 24 and the side edge of the gusseted structure.
  • the sack blank structures 30 may be separately or collectively converted into bag structures by removal of the triangular regions 34 and by the formation of bag mouth opening 36 which simultaneously forms handle loops 38, each of which are formed of two layers of film by virtue of the gusseted structure. This will complete the formation of a handled sack, the bottom of which can be planarly extended so as to have a flat bottom.
  • planarly extended is meant that the bag is extended in internal volume to its utmost by expanding the gusssets fully, thereby forming a flat-bottom, rectangular in nature, having a length larger than its width.
  • a linear low density polyethylene tubular film 12 is collapsed and simultaneously gusseted with the gussets then opened fully to approximately 180° as the tube passes through the gusset forming and opening means 14.
  • seals 20 and 24 are simultaneously formed. This action produces bottom seal 24 and top seal 30 at the same time.
  • This also isolates sack blank 30.
  • Sack blank 30 can then be removed to a station which can separately or simultaneously remove triangular sections 34, form bag mouth opening 36 and form handles 38. This can be accomplished on individual blanks or alternatively, blank 30 can be stacked in vertical registration and, through the means of a suitable cutting die mechanism, the triangular regions removed and the handle and bag mouth opening can be formed.
  • FIG. 2 For the formation of bags which do not contain a handle, the process and system is as shown in Figure 2.
  • the process and system 50a is different from that of Figure 1, beginning at the point where the bottom of the bag is sealed.
  • a bottom seal and perforating mechanism 40 is shown impressing seal- seam 42 in the flattened gusseted tube and, simultaneously therewith, perforation line 44 is formed closely adjacent and parallel to seal line 42.
  • Seal line 42 does not sever the tube, merely seals it.
  • Seal line 42 and perforation line 44 are impressed in the gusseted tube at the same time diagonal seals 20 are impressed into the opened gussets in the next succeeding gusseted tube structure.
  • each bag may be automatically separated at the perforation line and folded or stacked.
  • the sack resulting from the process and system of Figure 2 will have a rectangular bottom with a length larger than its width.
  • open mouth handleless structures can be formed by forming a severance transversely across the tube at the same time bottom seal 42 is formed. Thereafter, the comers of the sack blank corresponding to regions 46 can be severed to complete the bag structure.
  • the bag structure formed by the system and process illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 will yield a sack having a rectangular bottom when planarly extended, which bottom will have a length longer than its width.
  • the sack bottom will not be a square.
  • the process and means merely need be modified so that the gusset folds are both infolded to the maximum. That is, the collapsed tube will be gusseted to the longitudinal mid-line of the tube. In this case the center- fold of each gusset will contact the other and the angle between the thereafter formed diagonal seams will be at least about 90 ° .
  • the resulting sack will then have a substantially flat square bottom when planarly extended.
  • Bags of the structures described can be formed with a pair of registered tabs as integral extensions of the bag mouth opening as shown at 39 in Figure 1.
  • the bags can be stacked in registration to contain 50, 100, 150, etc, bags and the tabs 39 fastened together in some suitable manner.
  • the tabs can be ultrasonically welded together. A perforation line across the tab will form a convenient tear-off site for individual bags to be removed from the bag pack.
  • Bags of the structures described can be formed by employing any suitable thermoplastic material, for example, polyolefins.
  • polyolefins it is used generically to include all forms of the polymer species, including, for example, low density polyethylene, linear low density copolymers of ethylene and another olefin, high density polyethylene, mixtures and blends of the same, and other monomer counterparts, etc.
  • Thermoplastic coated paper stock is also contemplated.
  • the bag film can be of any gauge, for example, from about 0.3 to about 5 mils. in thickness.
  • the angle between the diagonal seal line and the bottom seal be at least approximately 135 ° when said bag is in its lay-flat condition. It is also preferred that the open mouth portion of the handled sacks of the present invention have stress relief curves or arcs extending from the base of the handle to a raised portion of the bag mouth. This will militate against splitting or tears occurring in the bag mouth during handle extension or when the bag is being filled with bulky material.
  • the handles and bag mouth opening can have any configuration.
  • the pertinent angles need not be precise. For example, they need not be exactly 90 ° , 45 ° , or 135 ° . Reasonable processing latitude should permit some deviation from these guidelines.
  • the ends thereof can be curved or angled in order to accommodate or insure good closure at all film interfaces and joints. Double or plural line seams and seals also can be employed.
