Abstract

A gusseted bag made of a flexible weldable material has a closed bottom end that at the inside top end is provided with a reclosable device. Side gussets are inserted between the two bag walls that form the front bag wall and the rear bag wall to stretch from the bottom end to the top end and terminate at a distance below the upper edge of the bag walls and thus define a top area of the bag without side gussets. The reclosable device is formed between the two bag walls, the upper ends of the side gussets being closed by welding to themselves and reach freely into the interior space of the bag underneath the reclosable device.

Seitenfaltenbeutel dieser Art sind aus der JP-A-597151 und der JP-A-10 166 477 bekannt. Sie werden zum Verpacken verschiedenartiger stückiger, körniger oder pulveriger Füllgüter verwendet, die, nach dem Entfernen eines vom Füllgutbetrieb im äußeren Randbereich des Kopfendes des Beutels angebrachten Beutelendverschlusses, z.B. einer Schweißnaht, üblicherweise portionsweise entnommen werden. Die Wiederverschlußeinrichtung, z.B. in Form eines Druckleistenverschlusses, ermöglicht es dabei dem Verbraucher, den Beutel nach jeder Füllgutentnahme wieder zu verschließen bzw. für eine Füllgutentnahme erneut zu öffnen. Side gusseted bags of this type are known from JP-A-597151 and the JP-A-10 166 477 is known. They become more diverse to packaging lumpy, granular or powdery products which, after removing one from the product operation in the outer edge region of the head end of the bag attached bag end closure, e.g. one Weld, usually taken in portions. The reclosing device, e.g. in the form of a pressure bar closure, allows the consumer, to reseal the bag after each product removal or to open again for a product removal.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Seitenfaltenbeutel der eingangs angegebenen Art zu schaffen, bei dem auf einfache Weise im Zuge der Beutelherstellung unter Vermeidung eines erhöhten Materialaufwandes ein dichter Verschluß der oberen Enden der Seitenfalten gebildet ist, der zugleich die Befüllungs- und Entleerungseigenschaften des Beutels verbessert The invention is based on the object, a gusseted bag of the type specified above, at in a simple way in the course of bag manufacturing under Avoidance of increased material costs a tight seal the upper ends of the gussets is formed at the same time the filling and Emptying properties of the bag improved

Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung durch einen Beutel mit den Merkmalen des Ansprüchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by a bag with the features of Ansprüchs 1 solved.

Durch Umfalten eines oberen Bereichs der Enden der Seitenfalten auf eine der beiden Hälften jeder Seitenfalte und die Verschweißung des Seitenfaltenendes mit sich selbst, mit dem umgefalteten Endbereich und der angrenzenden Seitenfaltenhälfte wird ein dichter sicherer Verschluß der obere Endbereich der Seitenfalten entlang einer vom Außenrand der Seitenfaltenhälfte ausgehenden, zum Bodenende hin schräg verlaufenden Faltlinie umgefaltet sein, vorteilhaft derart, daß der umgefaltete Endbereich die Form eines rechtwinkligen Dreiecks mit schräg zum Beutelinneren gerichteter Hypotenuse aufweist.By folding over an upper portion of the ends of the Gussets on one of the two halves of each gusset and the welding of the gusseted end with itself, with the folded end area and the adjacent gusseted half becomes a tight secure seal the upper end portion of the gussets along one of the Outside edge of the gusset half outgoing, to the bottom end be folded over oblique fold line, advantageously such that the folded-over end portion is in the shape of a rectangular Triangle with diagonally directed to the bag interior Hypotenuse has.

Die Anordnung der Wiederverschlußeinrichtung im seitenfaltenfreien Kopfbereich des Beutels ermöglicht ihre einfache Anbringung z.B. durch einen Schweißvorgang im Herstellungsprozeß des Beutels. Dabei ist eine Wahlfreiheit in der Ausgestaltung der Wiederverschlußeinrichtung bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Beutel dadurch gegeben, daß die Wiederverschlußeinrichtung völlig unabhängig von dem Verschluß der oberen Seitenfaltenenden im seitenfaltenfreien Kopfbereich des Beutels angeordnet ist. The arrangement of the reclosing device in the side-wrinkle-free Head section of the bag allows its easy Attachment e.g. by a welding process in the manufacturing process of the bag. There is a freedom of choice in the design of the reclosing device in the bag according to the invention given that the reclosing device completely regardless of the closure of the upper gusset ends arranged in the side wrinkle-free head portion of the bag is.

Der in der Zeichnung dargestellte Seitenfaltenbeutel kann als Kunststoffbeutel von Folienmaterial aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff, insbesondere einem Polyolefin wie Polyethylen oder Polypropylen, oder als Verbundbeutel von einem Verbundmaterial gebildet sein, das zumindest auf seiner Innenseite eine Verschweißungen ermöglichende Schicht aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff trägt, während eine oder mehrere sich nach außen anschließende Schichten des Verbundmaterials als Zwischenschicht eine Metallfolie, z.B. Aluminiumfolie, für die Aromadichtigkeit des Beutels aufweisen können.The gusseted bag shown in the drawing can as a plastic bag of thermoplastic film material Plastic, in particular a polyolefin such Polyethylene or polypropylene, or as a composite bag of be formed of a composite material, at least on allows its inside a Verschweißungen Layer of thermoplastic material carries while one or more outward layers the composite material as intermediate layer a metal foil, e.g. Aluminum foil, for the aroma-tightness of the bag can have.

Im einzelnen umfaßt der dargestellte Beutel ein geschlossenes Bodenende 1 und ein Kopfende 2, das im Leerzustand des Beutels gemäß Fig. 2 oben offen ist und erst nach der Befüllung des Beutels im Füllbetrieb entlang den oberen Randkanten 3 der Beutelwände 4 und 5 durch eine Schweißnaht 6 verschlossen wird, wie sie bei dem gefüllten Beutel gemäß Fig. 1 zur Darstellung kommt.In detail, the illustrated bag comprises a closed one Bottom end 1 and a head end 2, in the empty state of the bag of FIG. 2 is open at the top and only after filling the bag in the filling operation along the upper marginal edges 3 of the bag walls 4 and 5 by a Weld 6 is closed, as in the case of the filled Bag according to FIG. 1 is shown.

Die Beutelwand 4 bildet die Beutelvorderwand, während die Beutelwand 5 die Beutelrückwand bildet. Zwischen diesen sind beidseits Seitenfalten 7 eingelegt, die sich vom Bodenende 1 zum Kopfende 2 hin erstrecken und mit einem Abstand unterhalb der oberen Randkanten 3 bzw. der Schweißnaht 6 des Beutels enden. Im Bereich zwischen den oberen Enden 7a der Seitenfalten 7 und den oberen Randkanten 3 der Beutelwände 4 und 5 ist damit ein seitenfaltenfreier Kopfbereich 8 des Beutels geschaffen.The bag wall 4 forms the bag front wall, while the Bag wall 5 forms the bag back wall. Between these Both sides gussets 7 are inserted, extending from the bottom 1 to the head end 2 and extend at a distance below the upper marginal edges 3 and the weld 6 of the bag end. In the area between the upper Ends 7a of the gussets 7 and the upper marginal edges 3rd the bag walls 4 and 5 is thus a side wrinkle-free Head area 8 of the bag created.

Im Kopfbereich 8 ist eine Wiederverschlußeinrichtung 9 zwischen den beiden Beutelwänden 4, 5 gebildet, die bei dem dargestellten Beispiel zwei sich über die Beutelbreite erstreckende Verschlußbänder 10 umfaßt, von denen das eine an der Beutelvorderwand 4 und das andere an der Beutelrückwand 5 durch Verschweißung bzw. Heißversiegelung befestigt ist. Die Verschlußbänder 10 sind beispielsweise als deckungsgleiche Druckverschlußbänder mit nach Art von Nut und Feder in gegenseitigen Verschlußeingriff bringbaren Verriegelungsgliedern 11 ausgebildet. Die Wiederverschlußeinrichtung 9 wird vom Verbraucher nach einem Abtrennen der Schweißnaht 6 genutzt.In the head area 8 is a reclosing device 9th formed between the two bag walls 4, 5, the at the example shown two over the bag width extending fastener tapes 10, of which the one on the bag front wall 4 and the other on the bag rear wall 5 fixed by welding or heat sealing is. The fastener tapes 10 are for example as congruent pressure closure tapes with by type of Nut and spring can be brought into mutual closure engagement Locking members 11 formed. The reclosing device 9 is the consumer after a disconnect the weld 6 used.

Die Seitenfalten 7 umfassen beidseits ihrer mittleren Faltkante 12 jeweils zwei Seitenfaltenhälften 13 und 14, die entlang seitlichen Schweißnähten 15, 16 mit der Beutelvorderwand 4 bzw. der Beutelrückwand 5 verbunden sind. Im Kopfbereich 8 setzen sich die Schweißnähte 15, 16 beidseits jeweils als eine Schweißnaht 20 fort. Im Leerzustand des Beutels gemäß Fig. 2 liegen die beiden Seitenfaltenhälften 13, 14 jeder Seitenfalte 7 leicht V-förmig flach aneinander, während sie im gefüllten Zustand des Beutels gemäß Fig. 1 durch Flachspreizen nach außen geöffnet sind, um dem gefüllten Beutel in seinem Füllbereich eine annähernd parallelepipedische Form zu geben.The gussets 7 comprise on both sides of their middle Faltkante 12 each two gusseted halves 13 and 14, along side welds 15, 16 with the bag front wall 4 and the bag rear wall 5 are connected. In the head area 8, the welds 15, 16 set on both sides each as a weld 20 on. In the empty state of the bag according to FIG. 2 are the two side fold halves 13, 14 each gusset 7 slightly V-shaped flat against each other while in the filled state of the Bag according to FIG. 1 opened by flat spreaders to the outside are to the filled bag in its filling area to give an approximately parallelepipedic form.

Für einen endseitigen Verschluß der oberen Enden 7a der Seitenfalten 7 durch eine Verschweißung mit sich selbst, d.h. der von den beiden Seitenfaltenhälften 13, 14 gebildeten Materiallagen miteinander, ist ein oberer Bereich 17 der Seitenfaltenenden 7a auf eine der beiden Seitenfaltenhälften 13, 14, bei dem dargestellten Beispiel die Seitenfaltenhälfte 13, jeder Seitenfalte 7 umgefaltet. Die beiden Lagen des umgefalteten Endbereichs 17 sind durch eine entlang den oberen Schnittkanten der Seitenfaltenhälften 13, 14 verlaufende Schweißnaht 18 untereinander und mit der angrenzenden Innenseite der Seitenfaltenhälfte 13 fest verschweißt. Die auf diese Weise durch Verschweißung mit sich selbst endseitig verschlossenen Seitenfalten 7 erstrecken sich mit ihren umgefalteten oberen Endbereichen 17 unterhalb der Wiederverschlußeinrichtung 9 frei in den Innenraum des Beutels hinein.For an end-side closure of the upper ends 7a of Gussets 7 by welding to themselves, i.e. the one formed by the two side fold halves 13, 14 Material layers with each other, is an upper area 17 the gusset ends 7a on one of the two side fold halves 13, 14, in the illustrated example, the gusset half 13, each gusseted 7 folded. The two Layers of the folded end portion 17 are connected by a along the upper edges of the gusseted halves 13, 14 extending weld 18 with each other and with the adjacent inner side of the gusset half 13 firmly welded. Which in this way by welding with self-closed side gussets 7 extend with their folded upper end portions 17 below the reclosing device 9 freely in the Interior of the bag inside.

Wie die Zeichnung zeigt, ist der obere Endbereich 17 der Seitenfalten 7 entlang einer Faltlinie 19 umgefaltet, die von dem von der seitlichen Schweißnaht 15 definierten Außenrand der Seitenfaltenhälfte 13 ausgeht und zum Bodenende 1 hin schräg verläuft. Der umgefaltete Endbereich 17 jeder Seitenfalte 7 hat dabei die Form eines rechtwinkligen Dreiecks, dessen Hypotenuse entsprechend dem Neigungswinkel der Faltlinie 19 mehr oder weniger schräg zum Bodenende 1 gerichtet ist. Diese Ausbildung erleichtert sowohl die Befüllung des Beutels im Füllbetrieb als auch seine restmengenfreie Entleerung durch den Verbraucher, stets unter Erhalt des endseitigen dichten Verschlusses der oberen Seitenfaltenenden 7a.As the drawing shows, the upper end portion 17 of Gussets 7 folded along a fold line 19, the from the outer edge defined by the lateral weld 15 the gusset half 13 goes out and to the bottom 1 slants down. The folded-over end area 17 each gusset 7 has the shape of a rectangular Triangle, whose hypotenuse corresponds to the angle of inclination the fold line 19 more or less obliquely to the bottom end 1 is directed. This training facilitates both the filling of the bag in the filling operation as well as his residue-free emptying by the consumer, always preserving the tight end closure of the upper Gusset ends 7a.

Das geschlossene Bodenende 1 kann jede beliebige Ausgestaltung entsprechend dem Verwendungszweck des Beutels erhalten und beispielsweise die aus Fig. 1 ersichtliche flache Endabschweißung 21 aufweisen.The closed bottom end 1 may be of any configuration received according to the intended use of the bag and for example, the apparent from Fig. 1 flat Endabschweißung 21 have.
