Definitions

  • the invention relates to a resealable packaging bag made of a flexible material having an opening at the top, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Reclosable packaging bags are known in many different embodiments. Also known are mostly made of flat sheets packaging bags that are closed by a provided with a self-adhesive layer flap. In particular, if at least the outer layer of the packaging bag consists of a plastic on which the adhesive does not adhere too strongly, it is no problem to open such a bag several times and to close it again. Bags with gussets are closed again, in particular after the first opening by folding over the opening edge.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a reclosable packaging bag that can be produced in the simplest way and at low cost.
  • a packaging bag which is characterized in that on one side of the bag, a carrier is permanently attached, that on the support a provided with a self-adhesive layer portion of a flexible material is detachably secured and that part of the carrier and a portion of the portion protrude beyond the opening edge of the bag.
  • the bag can be made of any material, including paper, and that the carrier with the self-adhesive portion can be a commercially available self-adhesive label.
  • the carrier has a parting line which is formed as a weakening line or divides the carrier into two parts and which extends at least approximately parallel to the opening edge. This facilitates the removal of the over the bag edge protruding part of the carrier when the bag is first closed.
  • the carrier and / or the section has a recess which extends from the edge of the carrier and whose apex lies in the region of the dividing line.
  • the flexible material of the packaging bag has at least one layer of paper, which is located on the outside of the packaging bag or it consists entirely of paper.
  • the bag may have gussets according to another preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • its opening edge may be formed as a sealing edge.
  • the bags illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6 are so-called block bottoms.
  • the invention is not limited to block bottom bags, but includes any type of packaging bags made of flexible material.
  • the packaging bag shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 can be made, for example, from paper which is optionally provided on the inside of the bag with a thin layer of plastic which ensures a certain tightness and allows the material to be sealed by sealing.
  • the bag has a back 1 and a front 2 and its side parts preferably have gussets 3 in a known manner. At the bottom of the bag a bottom 4 is formed and at the top there is an opening 5 through which the bag is filled and emptied ,
  • a carrier 6 is permanently attached to the back 1, for example glued or sealed.
  • the carrier 6 is divided by a dividing line 7 into two parts 8 and 9, wherein the dividing line 7 is aligned in the example shown exactly with the bag edge.
  • the dividing line 7 can completely penetrate the material of the carrier 6 or it can be formed in a known manner as a weakening line, which does not completely penetrate the material of the carrier.
  • On the carrier 6 adheres a provided with a self-adhesive layer portion of a flexible material.
  • this section is a commercially available self-adhesive label and will therefore be referred to as label 10 in the following description.
  • the carrier 6 is provided on its side facing the label 10 with a detachment of the label 10 enabling layer, a so-called "release layer".
  • FIG. 1 shows the packaging bag as it is delivered by the packaging manufacturer and delivered, for example, to a food-processing company which first fills the bag.
  • Figure 2 shows the same bag, erected and ready to be filled, in which figure the bag is rotated 180 ° relative to the position shown in Figure 1, so that the opening 5 is clearly visible.
  • the portion 8 of the carrier 6 projecting beyond the edge of the bag is pulled off, which is facilitated by the dividing line 7.
  • the label has been torn unintentionally away from the part 9 of the carrier firmly connected to the bag, in particular when the direction in which the part 8 was pulled has a component which is from the front side 2 against the back 1 of the bag was.
  • a recess 11 is provided in the carrier 6 and / or in the label 10 in the region of the parting line 7. Duese's exemption can be round as shown, but it can also have a pointed shape, such as a known tear notch.
  • the portion of the label 10 projecting beyond the edge of the bag is bent over and the self-adhesive layer of the label 10 which has become free as a result of the removal of the part 8 of the carrier 6 is glued onto the front side 2 of the bag.
  • the type of sealed bag as shown in Figure 3, can now be delivered to the consumer.
  • the packaging bag can be opened in a simple manner by detaching the label 10 on the back 1 of the bag from the part 9 of the carrier 6 fixedly connected to it, which, as mentioned, has a release layer for this purpose.
  • FIG. 4 shows the packaging bag after it has been opened by the consumer, wherein the bag in FIG. 4 is again rotated by 180 ° relative to the illustration in FIG. If the consumer wishes to close the bag again, he simply presses the part of the label projecting beyond the edge of the bag in the illustration according to FIG. 4 back onto the part 9 of the carrier located on the opposite edge of the bag. It goes without saying that this process can be repeated almost arbitrarily.
  • the packaging bag according to the first embodiment described above can not be sealed tight and therefore, of course, for example, is not suitable for contents containing liquid ingredients.
  • a preferred use of this bag is in the packaging of solid foods, such as sandwiches intended, for example, for delivery to air passengers.
  • the second embodiment of the invention shows a packaging bag that is sealed after first closure.
  • this bag is closed during the first filling in a known manner by means of a sealing edge 12.
  • the carrier 6 is attached to the back 1 of this bag so that it does not adhere to the sealing edge 12.
  • the initial opening of this bag can therefore be done in a simple manner by tearing off the sealing edge 12, which can be facilitated by a tear score 13 and / or arranged in the packaging material, not shown weakening lines.
  • the consumer wishes to close the bag thus opened again, it removes the part 8 of the carrier 6 from the label 10, as indicated in FIG. 6, places the projecting part of the label over the bag opening 5 and sticks it to the front side 2 of the label bag.
  • the user will remove the label 10 from the part 9 of the carrier 6 provided with a "release layer" on the back 1 of the bag, as described above in connection with FIG.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 each show a detail of a strip of carrier material with labels for a packaging bag according to the invention.
  • a carrier 6 in the form of an endless belt is used for the production of packaging bags according to the invention, on which the labels 10 are adhesively bonded in a row.
  • the dividing lines 7 and the recesses 11 may already be present in this strip.
  • the strip according to Figure 7 is provided for the production of bags from a hose, wherein the opening edges of the bags are transverse to the direction of manufacture.
  • a strip according to Figure 8 is used for the manufacture of bags from one or more webs, in which the Opening edge is in each case parallel to the direction of the web, for example, at the edge of the web.
  • the label 10 does not have to have the substantially rectangular shape shown in the above-described embodiments, but may be arbitrary. It can also be equipped, for example, with one or more tabs, which facilitate the opening. Furthermore, the label can be made of any material and, for example, be transparent or transparent.
  • the label may be printed, for example with indications of its purpose and / or instructions for use. Of course, the label may contain information about the expiration date of the packaging content in a known manner. The same applies to the carrier 6. For example, the part 8 to be removed may have instructions for use and / or a tab. On the remaining part of the bag 9 of the carrier 6 may be printed under the label 10 an indication to reclosure of the bag, so that this notice comes after the opening of the bag to light.
