Definitions

  • the invention relates to a single-chamber infusion bag made of heat-sealable Filter paper material, especially for making tea, with a Chamber containing substance quantum, at its head end and at its Foot end is closed by a transverse heat seal, whereby a thread with a label is attached to the infusion bag.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing such single-chamber infusion bags, especially for tea.
  • Single chamber infusion bags can be in the form of tubular bags, three-side sealed Bags or four-side sealed bags can be made.
  • the Thread and label attachment is usually done such that on Head end of the single-chamber infusion bag attached to one end of the thread is, for example with a metal clip or by sealing on the cross ongoing heat sealing of the bags sealed by heat sealing. It is also known to the thread with one end at the head of the Glue on the infusion bag using a separate adhesive strip or sew the thread on, in all cases the other end of the thread is provided with the label.
  • a disadvantage in all cases is the complex, technically complicated and therefore expensive connection technology, which prevents a production with high Outputs of more than 500 infusion bags per minute are possible by machine is.
  • Another disadvantage is the risk of changes in taste of the infusion by the metals, adhesives and others to be used Fasteners.
  • Regarding the packaging and later handling of each single infusion bag is finally the placement of the thread and that Exposing the thread by the user is a problem that is usually caused by external looping of the thread around the bag in a less than optimal way is solved.
  • the invention is based on the object , while avoiding the disadvantages mentioned, of creating a single-chamber infusion bag which has no exposed thread in the packaging state and fastening the thread with a label without an additional fastening means, i.e. only using the materials necessary for bag production, which also enables continuous production on high-speed machines with capacities of up to 1000 bags per minute.
  • the object is achieved in a single-chamber infusion bag of the type mentioned in that the thread is housed in the interior of the chamber, its first free end is fixedly connected to the transverse heat sealing of the foot end, its second end by the transverse heat sealing of the head end or can be pulled out of the chamber adjacent and is connected outside the chamber to the label, in particular by heat sealing, which is easily attached to the bag by sealing.
  • the thread is preferably arranged in the form of a loop in the interior of the chamber and can therefore be pulled out over a greater length.
  • the outer end of the thread is advantageously placed as a loop and with the label inside an asymmetrical label fold Heat sealing connected, due to the asymmetrical folding longer sheet of the label is arranged outside and by two sealing points is attached to the bag with the protruding leaf end. So that's one ensures perfect label position securing and thread retention, can the user can easily remove the label from the bag, the thread pull as far as possible out of the chamber and onto the drinking vessel or the Fasten the jug and is finally also after the leaching process Expressing the used tea bag feasible by further Pull the lower transverse seam on the thread in the direction of the upper transverse seam of the bag is pulled and thus the bag is pressed together, with what the liquid is squeezed out.
  • a method is proposed according to the invention that is characterized in that on an initially level heat-sealable filter paper web a label thread meandering, in particular running centrally around the longitudinal axis on the top of the web is placed and fixed that at regular intervals to each other on the Bottom of the web a number of labels are substantially congruent applied with the label thread on the top and fixed that by Each label has the thread gripped from below using a tool and through the filter paper web and the label on the Bottom, especially in the form of a loop, is pulled that then the loop is attached to the label and the label on the Filter paper web is attached by heat sealing, after which in itself known manner - if necessary after bulging their longitudinal edges - portioned substance quanta of the leached substance in uniform Spaces are placed on the filter paper web from the web continuous hose is formed and then the hose in regular intervals, each covering a quantity of substance in Transverse direction is heat sealed, and then the transverse heat seals
  • the latter is preferably achieved in that the gripping of the thread from below through each label using the tool, in particular with a needle, through a hole in the label, the Pierce the filter paper web with the tool and the thread through it Opening is pulled, the opening in the cross heat seal so is positioned to pull the thread out of the chamber later is feasible. This brings the thread out of the chamber and the mobility of the thread for pulling out is ensured.
  • a Thread loop can be drawn with the label inside one asymmetrical label folding is connected by heat sealing, the protruding sheet end of the label attached to the bag by sealing points becomes.
  • the two long sides of the hose during the Tube forming or after the tube forming with a after provided folding inside to increase the chamber volume enlarge.
  • the one-chamber infusion bag 1 shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing made of heat sealable filter paper material and has two each other oppositely arranged chamber walls 2, 3 through Tube formation of a web 4 of the filter paper material result by the turned over two longitudinal edges 5, 6 to the longitudinal center 7 and there with each other by means of a central longitudinal knurled seam 8 or a central longitudinal heat seal are connected, the foot end 9 and the head end 10 closed by a transverse heat seal 11 or 12 respectively become.
  • Chamber 13 formed which a substance quantum 14, namely a portioned Lots of tea, contains.
  • the one-chamber infusion bag 1 is consequently at his both longitudinal sides 15 and 16 by means of tube formation without folds and seal-free, whereby the volume of the chamber 13 significantly is enlarged that a fold 17, 18 on each of the two long sides 15, 16 is formed, which is accordion-shaped in cross section and in the Chamber 13 of the bag extends inwardly.
  • the folds 17, 18 are made so that the usual external dimensions of such Single-chamber tea bags are retained and therefore despite the increase of the chamber volume no increase in its length or width in Packaging condition is given. This ensures that Substance quantum T in chamber 13 excellently through the Infusion liquid is to be digested and the substances contained in it solve optimally.
  • a thread 19 is arranged in a meandering shape, one end 20 of which is fixed to the transverse heat seal 11 Foot end 9 is connected, while its other end 21 through the transverse running heat seal 12 of the head end 10 from the chamber 13 movable, namely extractable, led out and outside the Chamber 13 is connected to a label 22 by heat sealing.
  • the label 22 consists of a rectangular paper strip with a heat-sealable coating that is asymmetrical in the transverse direction is folded and in the resulting interior with the loop-shaped second end 21 of the label thread 19 is connected. Due to the asymmetrical transverse folding, there is a longer one on the outside arranged label sheet 23, the projecting sheet end by two Sealing points 24 easily removable on the wall 2 of the bag by heat sealing is pinned.
  • FIG. 2 of the drawing in the schematic of a device for manufacturing such bag is shown in a continuous process.
  • the filter paper roll (not shown) is subtracted from the required quantity continuously withdrawn in the form of a filter paper web 25 and over a Pre-folding device 26 guided, with the linear knockouts 27 in Longitudinal direction corresponding to that for the later folds 17, 18 intended number of folding operations.
