Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device used to close packaging bags, and in particular those designed to support heavy loads up to 20kg or more, generally used to package animal feed, flour, sugar, fertilizers, etc ..., in general made of reinforced paper, plastic material resistant or otherwise, hereinafter referred to as industrial bags.
  • the hook-and-loop fasteners are expensive, which explains their use only on some special bags, and, in addition, they hide a part of the bag, which requires the printer of the bag to have a presentation (including the presentation safety regulations relating to the product (s) content (s) in the bag) modified to take account of future location of the locking device, different from the presentation for the same bags intended not to be fitted with resealable closure.
  • the zippers are certainly more discreet than bags with a device of self-gripping closure, but they are not reliable, especially when the bags contain loads greater than 5kg. In addition, they must be incorporated from the manufacturing of the bag. Finally, these zippers encroach on them also across the width of the bag.
  • the problem is to realize, for bags industrial, a closing device which allows the user to close a bag of safely after opening it, even if it has a fairly heavy load, which allows to have a resealable opening whose size corresponds to the cross section of the bag.
  • the solution of the present invention is a bag having an opening and a closing device composed of at least one film, the first side of which is provided with an adhesive capable of permanently joining the film at the first part of the bag located on a first surface of the bag, and the second face of which is provided with an adhesive capable of dissociating and securing the film to a second part of the bag located on the surface opposite to the first surface with respect to the opening so as to close the opening.
  • the bag is capable of containing a charge of at least less 2kg and the adhesive securing the film to the bag repeatedly at an adhesive power between 2 and 2.5 N / cm according to AFERA 4001 standard.
  • the opening of a bag fitted with such a device closure can be easily closed securely and repeated.
  • the bag can be made without the closing device which can be added regardless of the bag's manufacture.
  • the fact to use a double-sided adhesive film, without any special mechanism allows an opening maximum which is equal to the cross section of the bag.
  • the devices are consist of an opaque label which requires plan from the manufacturing of the bag the location of this label so that no registration is printed at this location.
  • the film and the two adhesives are transparent which allows not to modify the external presentation of the bag whose information can remain in the place initial.
  • a bag 1 has two surfaces 2, 3 connected on the one hand laterally by lateral surfaces 4, 5, and on the other hand, by a bottom 6.
  • the end 20 of surfaces 2, 3 opposite the bottom 6 defines a opening 7.
  • the bag 1 also includes a device for closure 8 disposed near the opening 7.
  • the closure device 8 is a film 9 of which a first face has an adhesive 10 suitable for securing this film 9 permanently to a first part of bag 1 located on one of the two surfaces 2, 3.
  • the other face of the film 9 has a adhesive 11 suitable for securing and detaching so repeated film 9 to a second part of bag 1 located on the other of the two surfaces 3, 2.
  • this arrangement of the film 9 provides a opening 7 equal to the cross section of the bag 1.
  • one 13 of the two parts 12,13 of the bag cooperating with the film 9 is located nearby immediately of opening 7, the other part 12 being located at a predetermined distance far from this opening 7.
  • the film 9 is permanently joined by the adhesive 10 at the part 12 away from the opening 7 so that the user, by folding twice on itself the end 20 of the two surfaces 2, 3 and by applying pressure on the double fold against the adhesive 11, secures the film 9 and the part 13 close to the opening 7.
  • the distance between end 20 and near line 14 of folding corresponds to the width 21 of the double strip downturn.
  • This width 21 also corresponds to the distance between near line 14 and distant line 15 of folding and to that between the distant folding line 15 and the limit line 16.
  • the part 12 remote from the opening 7 is the section between the distant fold line 15 (away from end 20 by a distance equal to two times the width 21 of the double fold band) and the boundary line 16 (far from the end 20 of a distance equal to three times the width 21 of the strip double fold).
  • the film 9 must be positioned in this part 12 away from opening 7 to be effective optimum.
  • the pressure due to the load contained in the bag 1 is transmitted to the section between the line near 14 and the distant fold line 15 (strip double fold).
  • the pressure is very little transmitted to the section between the end 20 and the near fold line 14 (double internal band fold) which contains part 13 close to the opening 7.
  • the pressure exerted on the adhesive 11 for securing and detaching repeatedly the film 9 in bag 1 remains weak, well that the load in the bag 1 is important.
  • the use of the double fold allows to have a perfect seal when the bag 1 is closed.
  • the film 9 and the two adhesives 10,11 are transparent and therefore it is possible to apply the closure device 8 on registrations, which makes it possible not to modify the external presentation of the bag 1.
  • the size of the film 9 can be easily determined by those skilled in the art.
  • the film can have a length between two-thirds and three-quarters of the width 22 of a surface 2,3 of the bag 1, according to the load contained.
  • the film 9 can be made of polyester.
  • the adhesive 10 able to secure the film 9 to the bag 1 definitely can be acrylic based. he can the same applies to the adhesive 11 capable of joining together and separate the film 9 from the bag 1 repeatedly.
  • Double-sided adhesive tapes sensitive to pressure sold by the company SCAPATAPES under the reference DUBLFILM D230 and D151 can be used as closing device 8 according to the invention.
  • the bag 1 is made of a material having a very low porosity and not delaminating, for example in polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene ... It would obviously possible to use a bag 1 made from paper or the like whose faces adapted to cooperate with the adhesives (10, 11), or at least with the suitable adhesive to fasten and separate the film 9 to the bag 1 of repeatedly, are covered with a film made in one material with very low porosity and does not not delaminating.
  • Adhesive 10 apt to secure the film 9 to the bag 1 definitively a an adhesive power of at least 7.5N / cm and that 11 suitable to fasten and separate the film 9 to the bag 1 of repeatedly has an adhesive power between 2 and 2.5 N / cm.
  • a second series was carried out according to this same standard but using a coated paper backing a polyester film (paper used for manufacturing bags) instead of the required stainless steel support by the standard.
  • the adhesive 10 capable of joining the film 9 to bag 1 permanently has adhesive power higher than the tear strength of the paper.
  • the one 11 able to secure and separate the film 9 to bag 1 repeatedly has an adhesive power included between 1 and 2.5N / cm depending on the type of paper used.
  • a third series was carried out according to this same standard but using coated paper backing 80.
  • the adhesive 10 able to secure the film 9 to the bag 1 definitively has an adhesive power greater than the resistance to tearing of paper.
  • the one 11 suitable for secure and separate the film 9 to the bag 1 of repeatedly has an adhesive power of between 0.4 and 1.5N / cm depending on the type of support used.
  • Adhesive 10 capable of joining the film 9 to bag 1 definitely has power adhesive superior to the tear resistance of the paper. That 11 capable of joining and dissociating the film 9 in the bag repeatedly has an adhesive power between 4.5 and 6.5N / cm depending on the type of support used.
  • the adhesive therefore makes it possible to securely close a bag containing large loads of the order of 10 or 15 kg, even up to 20kg, even 25kg, and this after more than thirty or even one quarantine, openings and closings for a bag whose faces adapted to cooperate with the adhesives consist of a film made of a material with very low porosity (polyester film, polypropylene, polyethylene, etc.), this bag can be paper-based, aluminum or plastic.
  • the closing device according to the present invention therefore makes it possible to close extremely reliable and repeated industrial bags, it also allows print information on the bag without worrying the location of this locking device. Finally, the manufacture of a bag provided with such a device allows to offer the user maximum opening corresponding to the cross section of the bag.
