Definitions

  • the present invention relates to self-standing flexible pouches for containing liquids or fine granules, particularly liquid detergents.
  • a principle object of the present invention is to provide a flexible pouch for containing liquids which is self-standing.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a flexible pouch which is sufficiently stable to allow a consumer to firmly grasp and pour out the contents of the pouch with confidence.
  • Another object of the present invention is to reduce the amount of material from which the pouches are manufactured. Additionally the pouch material should collapse when discarded and thereby reduce the volume of generated waste material.
  • Yet a further object of the present invention is to provide a pouch from a material which is lightweight but strong and robust.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide pouches which can be manufactured by simple adaptation of the existing manufacturing methods used for Doypacks.
  • the present invention is a self-standing flexible pouch for containing liquids having a top portion and a base portion, comprising a front wall, a back wall and a base wall. Said base wall is generally perpendicular to said front and back walls when said pouch is in its filled upright position.
  • the front and back walls are sealed together along their top edges and their peripheral edges only in said top portion.
  • the bottom wall is sealed to said front and back walls along their peripheral edges in said base portion by oblique seals.
  • the peripheral edges of said back and front walls and said base wall in said base portion are substantially along said oblique seals.
  • the present invention relates to a flexible pouch (Fig. 1, 1) for containing liquids.
  • the pouch is stable and self-standing without the need for additional support means.
  • the pouches according to the present invention have a top portion (Fig. 1, 2) and a base portion (Fig. 1, 3) comprising a front wall (Fig.1, 4), a back wall (Fig. 1, 5) and a base wall (Fig. 1, 6).
  • the base wall is generally perpendicular to the front and back walls when the pouch is in its filled upright position.
  • the top portion (Fig. 1, 2) of the pouches according to the present invention comprises said front (Fig. 1, 4) and back walls (Fig. 1, 5) which are superimposed upon one another.
  • the front and back walls are sealed together along their top edges (Fig. 1, 7 and 8) and their peripheral edges (Fig. 1, 9, 10 and 11, 12 )only in said top portion.
  • the seals in the pouches according to the present invention are preferably heat seals. Said seals are preferably from 3mm to 50mm, more preferably from 3mm to 10mm, most preferably 5mm in width.
  • the base wall (Fig. 2, 21) is foldable into a pleated inverted V shape and is situated in between said front (Fig. 2, 22) and back walls (Fig. 2, 23).
  • the inverted V shape maybe continuous with the front and back walls, such that all the walls of the pouch are formed from one single foil of pouch material.
  • said base wall may be an additional piece, separate from the front and back walls, which is further sealed at one bottom edge of said base wall with the bottom edge of the front wall and sealed at the other bottom edge (Fig.2, 24) of said base wall with the back wall in the base portion of the pouch .
  • Each half of the pleated inverted V shape forms a corresponding leg with the front (Fig. 2, 25) and back walls (Fig. 2, 26) when the pouch is unfilled.
  • the peripheral edges of said base wall are sealed to the peripheral edges of the corresponding front (Fig. 2, 27) or back wall (Fig. 2, 28) in the base portion.
  • the section of the base wall not sealed to the front and back walls, is such that the midsection of the base wall (Fig.2, 29) is free and may extend up into the interior of the pouch when the pouch is unfilled.
  • said base wall is sealed to said front wall peripheral edge (Fig.2, 30) and said back wall peripheral edge (Fig.2, 30b) in said base portion with oblique seals. All of the peripheral edges of said front and back walls and said base wall in said base portion are substantially along said oblique seals. Said oblique edges are substantially parallel with said oblique seals. According to the present invention said oblique seals improve the stability of the pouches when filled.
  • Oblique as used herein is determined with reference to the perpendicular axes (Fig 1, 13a,13b) which extend from the top portion of the pouch along the inner edge of the seals of the peripheral edges of the front and back walls when the pouch is filled in its upright position into the base portion.
  • An oblique seal or oblique peripheral edge according to the present invention is a seal or peripheral edge which does not lie along said perpendicular axes, but is inclined away from said perpendicular axes towards the bottom edge (Fig.1, 14) of the base portion (Fig. 1, 3), so as to form an obtuse angle (Fig. 1, ⁇ ) between the inner edge of the seal of the peripheral edge of the top portion and the corresponding inner edge of the peripheral edge of the base portion.
  • the obtuse angle is preferably from 90° to 180°, more preferably from 120° to 150°.
  • the pouches according to the present invention have dimensions which are determined by said obtuse angle (Fig.1, ⁇ ).
  • the pouch dimensions themselves that determine the distribution of the pouch contents and thus the overall stability of the pouch when filled. If the distribution of the liquids in the pouches is unequal then creases and/or crevices and/or folds occur, distorting the shape of the pouch, which contributes to instability.
  • the position of the centre of gravity of the filled upright pouches is determined by the overall dimensions of pouches. According to the present invention the dimensions are preferably such as to lower the centre of gravity to a point in the base portion of the pouch.
  • base wall is substantially perpendicular to the front (Fig. 3,2) and back (Fig.3,3) walls when the pouch is in its filled upright position so that a substantial part of the base wall is in contact with the surface upon which the pouch stands (Fig.3,1).
  • the bottom seal corners (Fig. 1, 16) and (Fig. 1, 16b) between the oblique seal (Fig. 8, 100) and the horizontal seal (Fig. 8, 110) are severed in another oblique manner (Fig. 8, 112a, 112b).
  • a stiffer material for the base wall (Fig. 9, 140) than for the front (Fig. 9, 120) and back walls (Fig. 9, 130).
  • Stiffer material can be achieved through usage of a different plastic type and/or thicker laminate structure. All the improvements mentioned above, i.e. the severed part between oblique (Fig. 8, 100) and horizontal seal part (Fig. 8, 110), the introduction of film tension or the usage of stiffer material, help to flip the bottom seal (Fig. 9, 150) outwards, therefore to improve the stability of the pouch.
  • the improvements can be used independently or in any combination in any embodiment of the present invention.
  • the pouches may have at least one, preferably 1 to 4 vertical ridges on the front and back walls of said pouch, (Fig. 1, 15) when the pouch is in its filled upright position.
  • the ridges preferably extend from the bottom edge of the base portion corners (Fig.1 16, 16b) vertically up at least into the top portion of the pouch. Said ridges are preferably parallel with the perpendicular axes (Fig.1, 13, 13b).
  • the ridges according to the present invention preferably extend at least 50% of the length of the front and back walls, when the pouch is in its upright position, preferably from 50% to 90%, more preferably from 70% to 90%.
  • the ridges give the pouches the desired configuration in at least the base portion and help retain said configuration.
  • the ridges also help the base wall to remain in contact with the surface upon which the pouch stands and helps stiffen the pouches.
  • the pouches of the present invention have a substantially rectangular footprint in at least the base portion of said pouches.
  • the pouches comprise a handle (Fig.1, 17) in the top portion of said pouch.
  • the handle is a sealed corner of the front and back walls in the top portion of said pouch.
  • Said sealed corner is the corner between the top edges (Fig.1 ,7,8) of the front and back walls and one of the peripheral edges of said front (Fig.1, 11) and back (Fig.1,12) walls in the top portion such that the front (Fig.1,4) and back walls (Fig.1,5) are sealed together beyond their edges.
  • a piece of the sealed portion is removed from the centre of said sealed portion so that an opening (Fig. 1, 18) is formed to enable a consumer to place the fingers through said opening.
  • Said opening is preferably oblong and substantially parallel with the bottom edge of the seal (Fig.1, 19).
  • the top edge of the seal of the handle (Fig.1, 20) is preferably parallel with the edge of said opening and said bottom edge of the opening seal.
  • Suitable materials for use as the front, back and base walls according to the present invention are preferably thin, to reduce the amount of material used and the associated cost, whilst being sufficiently thick, and tough enough to resist punctures and leaks caused by abrasion and rough handling.
  • the pouch material is from 50 micrometers to 500 micrometers, more preferably from 100micrometers to 300micrometers.
  • the front, back and base walls are also selected from materials that can be easily handled and sealed together, preferably by heat sealing in a high-speed form, fill and seal apparatus.
  • Suitable flexible materials for use herein may be selected from thermoplastics, preferably polyethylene, most preferably linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE).
  • the front, back and base walls are preferably made of the same material. As discussed before, it may be preferred to have a stiffer material in the base wall (Fig. 9, 140), than in the front (Fig. 9, 120) or back walls (Fig. 9, 130).
  • LLDPE middle density polyethylene
  • MDPE middle density polyethylene
  • the plastic material may be a composite material constituted by at least two layers of different plastic materials such that one of said material is thermally weldable while the other is not.
  • a stiffer material in the base wall (Fig. 9, 140) can be also achieved.
  • the front and back walls can be made of 180 ⁇ m of LLDPE and 12 ⁇ m of PET, whereas the base wall can be made of 220 ⁇ m of LLDPE and 12 ⁇ m of PET. This example shows only a possible way of execution and is by no way limiting the present invention.
  • the pouches may be filled with solids or fluids such as food products, laundry detergents, softeners, automatic dishwasher detergents and hard surface cleaners.
  • the pouches of the present invention are filled with liquid detergents.
  • one of the corners of the top portion of the pouches may be removed to provide an opening so that the consumer can pour out the contents of the pouch.
  • Pouches of the present invention may be used as sample pouches and refill pouches for reusable containers.
  • the pouches according to the present invention may be manufactured according to the methods well known to the man skilled in the art and described in US 3 380 646.
  • the process may be a continuous, a semi-continuous or a multi-step batch process.
  • the flexible self-standing pouches according to the present invention may be produced by a number of methods two of which are described below:
  • the pouches are produced at the start from three strips of plastic material (Fig.4, 1,2,3) respectively.
  • the two strips (Fig. 4. 1 and 2) have the same width and are superposed.
  • the strip (Fig.4, 3) which may be of a different nature and thicker than the other two strips, is much narrower and doubled up so as to form an inverted V of which the two edges are juxtaposed with two longitudinal edges of the strips (Fig.4, 1 and 2).
  • Said strips (Fig.4, 1, 2 and 3) may be made of any plastic material unitary or composite. In the case where the material is of a composite type, it consists of two layers of plastic material of different character such that one of them is thermally weldable, while the other is not.
  • Fig. 5 (7, 8) indicate the two reels which deliver the strips (Fig.4,1 and 2) respectively, which pass through the bar means 9 which enable said strips to travel then over in the other direction of the arrow (10) through the agency of a pulling systems (not shown).
  • FIG.5, 11 indicates another reel of which the axis is vertical, that is perpendicular to the axes of the reels (Fig.5, 7 and 8).
  • Said reel (Fig.5,11) delivers the narrow strip (Fig.4,3) which passes through bar means (Fig.5, 12) which make it possible for said strip to double itself up so far as to form an inverted V, after which said strip (Fig.4, 3) passes through the bar means (Fig.5, 9) between the two corresponding longitudinal edges of the strips (Fig.4, 1 and 2).
  • Two complementary electrodes are disposed downstream with respect to the bar means (Fig.5, 9) and are adapted to move in a direction perpendicular to the travel of the strips (Fig.4, 1, 2 and 3).
  • the electrodes (Fig.5, 13) have dimensions and their operating rhythm is such that they form oblique seals (Fig.5, 4) and the horizontal seals (Fig.5, 5) in the area where the strips (Fig.4, 1, 2 and 3) are superposed.
  • Fig.5, 13 Downstream with respect to the electrodes (Fig.5, 13) is another pair of electrodes (Fig.5, 14) which are intended to execute the seals (Fig.5, 6).
  • the pouches After passing between said electrodes the pouches pass through a set of blades (Fig.5, 27, 16). Said blades (Fig.5, 27) cut along the edge of the oblique seals (Fig.5, 4) and the strips (Fig.4, 1, 2, 3), thus forming oblique edges and thus define several pouches which are severed from one another by said set of blades (Fig.5, 16).
  • the arrangement described herein above may be used for the manufacture of pouches according to the the present invention where a composite material is used or a pouch material which thermally weldable on one face only.
  • a composite material is used or a pouch material which thermally weldable on one face only.
  • said arrangement is not suitable as the oblique seals (Fig.5, 4) and the horizontal seal (Fig.5, 5) would join together the four plies formed by the strips (Fig.4, 1, 2, 3) which would prevent the formation of the bottom portion of the pouch.
  • a set of anti adhesive screens or shields are disposed, the length of which is greater than the width of one pouch, said screens being disposed opposite each other. Said screen prevents the sealing of the front leg (Fig. 2,25) to the back leg (Fig. 2,26).
  • Fig. 7 illustrates, by way of example an apparatus for manufacturing a pouch according to the present invention from non-composite material.
  • said material may be in the form of superposed strips, or folded sheet or a folded in tube.
  • Fig. 6 and 7 illustrate the latter instance.
  • the pouches are produced from either three foils of plastic material, which constitute the front, back and base walls or a folded foil or a folded in tube.
  • Fig. 7 illustrates the latter instance and indicates a reel (17) delivering a flattened tube of plastic material (18) of which both edges are folded in a manner such that each edge forms a V section (19).
  • two anti-adhesive screens (21) are disposed, the length of which is greater than the width of one pouch, said screens being disposed opposite each other inside the lateral folds (19) of the tube (18).
  • each of said screens (21) two electrodes (22) are located and are adapted to move within a plane perpendicular to the direction of the direction of the travel of the tube (18).
  • the electrodes (22) close and squeeze the edges of said tube (18) they form the oblique seals (4) and the longitudinal seal (5) and owing to the presence of shields or screens (21), these seals unite only one of the faces of the tube (18) to the corresponding inner faces of the tube to the corresponding inner face of the fold (19), although both faces of said tube are made of thermo-sealable material.
  • a second set of electrodes (23) are located downstream or forwardly of the electrodes (22) and form the lateral seals (6) on each pouch.
  • the first set of said blades cuts along the edge of the bottom of the oblique seals (4).
  • the second set of said blades cuts the tube along the median longitudinal line thereof.
  • Said cutting device (25) severs the pouches from one another.
  • the apparatus for manufacturing a pouch according to the present invention illustrated by Fig. 7 may also be used to manufacture pouches made of composite material or material which is only thermally weldable on one of its faces by removing the anti-adhesive screens (21).
  • a heating bar element to heat seal the ridges on the front and back walls.
  • Said heated element having a desired rigid shape and configuration.
  • said second set of electrodes form the handle seal and a third set of blades cuts the opening of the handle.
  • another cutting device severs the bottom seal corners (Fig.1, 16 and 16b) between the oblique seal and the horizontal bottom seal in an oblique manner.
  • the creasing of the bottom horizontal seal part (Fig. 8, 110) can be obtained in two ways.
  • a mechanical embossing in the machine direction is obtained, by means of a steel wheel that folds the film just above or in the bottom seal area.
  • the bottom seal itself can also be thermoformed to the desired shape. This can be achieved, for example, with a bottom seal tool which includes a dent, i.e. the bottom seal tool is not a flat surface.
