Definitions
- This invention relates to bags and a method of manufacture thereof, and particularly, but not exclusively, to laminar bags having at least one window therein.
- Such bags especially bags made of paper laminated to plastics material, have a number of applications, for example they can be used to carry foodstuffs.
- they can be used to carry foodstuffs such as roast chicken, the plastics material preventing juices or other liquids from the food leaking from the bag.
- Conventional laminar bags are thermally-sealed, laminated, satchel-type bags and are optically opaque. They do not provide any means, such as a transparent window, by which the product within the bag may be viewed. It is, however, desirable to be able to inspect the condition of the product within the bag without opening it, by, for example, providing an aperture-type window in the bag.
- Envelopes/bags with windows are known, and are typically manufactured by cutting a window in the envelopes/bags and attaching a layer of transparent material to the inner surface of the envelopes/bags to form a seal over the window.
- a layer of transparent material to the inner surface of the envelopes/bags to form a seal over the window.
- difficulty has been encountered in attaching the transparent material to the laminated surface.
- Such products are also not thermally sealed and would not prevent fluids from leaking out of them.
- a method of manufacturing a bag comprising the steps of:
- the first material may comprise a sheet of paper.
- the paper sheet may be coloured, for example brown or white, and/or may have printed matter provided thereon.
- the weight of the paper may be in the range 10 gm -2 to 180 gm -2 .
- the or each window may be formed by cutting the sheet of material, preferably by rotary die cutting.
- the second material may be a plastic material, for example polypropylene, low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, or polyester or combinations of such materials.
- the second material may be attached to the first material by means of an adhesive, or by heat-welding.
- the bag may be formed using heat sealing, or the like.
- the second material is attached in use to an inner surface of the bag.
- the second material may be laminated to the whole area of the inner surface of the bag, thereby providing a substantially leak-proof bag.
- a continuous web of the first material may be formed, which may have windows formed therein at intervals there-along.
- the continuous web may then be laminated to a continuous web of the second material, and a number of bags may be formed from the continuous laminated web, each bag having at least one window therein.
- the method may further comprise the steps of laminating a third material to the first material and/or the second material, and forming a bag from the laminated, windowed material thus formed.
- the method may comprise another step of laminating a fourth material to the first material, or the second material or the third material or a combination of these materials, and forming a bag from the laminated, windowed material thus formed.
- Subsequent materials may be added in still further steps, forming a multi-layered, laminated, windowed material.
- the third, fourth and subsequent materials may be a plastic material, or paper, providing always that a transparent window is provided in the laminated, windowed material.
- a bag manufactured by the method of the first aspect of the invention.
- the bag may be provided with a seam and a base which may be heat-sealed.
- the bag may be provided with one or more gussets.
- the bag may be substantially rectangular in shape.
- the bag may conveniently have a width of 80 mm and a length of 170 mm, or a width of 300 mm and a length of 900 mm.
- the figure shows a paper bag 1 of substantially rectangular shape, having a front surface 2, a back surface (not shown), a first side surface 3 and a second side surface (not shown).
- the back surface incorporates a seam.
- Each side surface has two folded portions 4 and 5, which form a gusset.
- the bottom of the bag is folded to form a base 6, and the top 7 of the bag is provided with an opening, to allow articles, for example food, to be placed in the bag.
- a window 8 is formed in the front surface 2.
- the inner surface of the bag is provided with a layer of polypropylene laminated thereto.
- the bag is manufactured using the method according to the first aspect of the invention.
- a sheet of paper is formed, and die cut to form a window therein.
- a sheet of polypropylene of the same size as the sheet of paper is then laminated to the inner surface of the paper sheet, such that the polypropylene sheet seals around the edges of the window.
- the laminated sheet is passed into a bag-forming machine which forms the laminated sheet into a bag as described above, heat sealing the bottom and back seam of the bag to form a substantially leak-proof bag.
- bag may be formed by the above method, and that the present invention is not limited to rectangular side-gusseted, satchel-type bags, but also includes, for example, block bottom-type bags.
- a number of such bags may be formed in the same process, by forming a web of paper, die cutting this to form windows therein at intervals there-along, laminating a web of polypropylene to one surface of the paper web such that the polypropylene seals around the edges of the windows, cutting the laminated web into lengths, and passing the lengths into a bag-forming machine which forms bags as described above.
