Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a bag for the containing of liquid products which emanate gas, in particular yeasts for bread making.
  • yeast In the following description specific reference will be made to yeast, but it is to be understood that the invention can be applied to any liquid or paste product which during storage emanates gas.
  • Yeast in the phase of production, is always in the liquid state and, for the placing on the market, in the majority of cases, is subsequently dehydrated in order to transform it into powder or into the form of solid cakes. In the phase of use the yeast has once again to be returned to the liquid form.
  • the problem in the storage of the liquid yeast is that it emanates a considerable quantity of gas, in particular CO 2 , up to 1-3 litres a day for a package of 10/20 litres.
  • Bags are therefore necessary which on the one hand are highly permeable to the gases and on the other hand have adequate toughness for sustaining the weight of the content, these bags normally having a capacity of 10/20 litres.
  • double wall bags i.e. having a polyethylene-based inner film highly permeable to CO 2 , with very thin thickness (30-50 ⁇ m) and therefore with little mechanical strength, and an outer film constituted by a nylon-based laminate, with thickness of 80-150 ⁇ m, suitable for conferring the necessary mechanical strength to the bag.
  • the outer film which is not permeable, has a plurality of small holes to allow the release of the gases which permeate through the inner film.
  • the bag shaped in this way is placed inside a cardboard box in such a way as to constitute a so-called bag-in-box packaging which can easily be manipulated.
  • This pressure contact causes a strong adherence between the inner and outer plastic films of the bag, practically clogging the holes provided in the outer film and preventing therefore the release of the gases, which tend to accumulate in the upper part of the bag, where they have difficulty in exiting due to the small perforated surface of the outer film not in contact with the inner wall of the containing box.
  • the object of the invention is that of eliminating the aforesaid disadvantages of the prior art.
  • an object of the invention is that of providing a bag for liquid yeasts which allows a complete and rapid degassing of the product contained therein.
  • Another object of the present invention is that of providing such a bag which is simple and economical to manufacture.
  • the bag according to the invention has the features of the annexed independent claim 1.
  • the bag according to the invention of the so-called double wall type, comprises a polyethylene-based inner film with high permeability and a nylon-based outer reinforcing laminate, wherein at least in the upper part of each face of the bag, between the inner film and the outer film, at least one spacer element is provided between these films attached perimetrically to an opening formed in the outer film and provided with holes for the release of the gas.
  • this spacer element comprises a perforated body having a perimeter edge heat-sealed to said outer film and a possible seat of housing of a cover or cap, also perforated.
  • the inner film of the bag is a coextruded LLDPE of 30 ⁇ m (28 g/m 2 ), while the outer film is a laminate comprising a layer of OPA (nylon) of 15 ⁇ m (17 g/m 2 ), placed between two layers of coextruded LLDPE-EVA of 38 ⁇ m (35 g/m 2 ).
  • LLDPE linear low density polyethylene
  • OPA oriented polyamide
  • the bag according to the invention for the containing of liquid products which emanate gas, in particular yeast, has been denoted by reference numeral 1.
  • bag 1 has been illustrated rectangular in shape, which is the simplest to make, but it is clear that it can take on any other shape.
  • the bag 1 is of the so-called double wall type, in the sense that each of its two opposite faces 2 comprises two films, an inner one 5 and an outer one 6, separated one from the other and joined only at said perimeter heat-sealing line 3.
  • a spout 7 for filling/delivering of the product is applied, having a circular base flange 8 sealed internally to the corresponding face 2, while the spout 7 projects through a hole formed in this face, and is closed by a cap 20.
  • the inner film 5 of the double wall of the bag is with high permeability to gases, in particular to CO 2 which is produced in a large quantity by the yeast contained in the bag, > 50 l/m 2 day atm. It has a base of polyethylene, for example a coextruded LLDPE and has a very thin thickness (30 ⁇ m) in order to be able to obtain the aforesaid high values of permeability.
  • Such a film would alone be very fragile and therefore subject to easy tearing.
  • the outer film 6 is assigned the task of conferring toughness to the bag and avoiding easy breaking.
  • This outer film 6 is normally a laminate with several layers, for example comprising:
  • the number of the layers of the laminate constituting the outer film 6 can be different with respect to that illustrated, provided they contain a layer with high toughness, such as the layer of OPA (nylon) and at least one polyethylene-based outer layer, in order to allow performance of the perimeter heat sealing 3, as well as the heat sealing of the base 8 of the spout 7, and the heat sealing of spacer elements 10 between the inner film 5 and outer film 6 of each face 2 of the bag 1, as now will be described in greater detail.
  • a layer with high toughness such as the layer of OPA (nylon) and at least one polyethylene-based outer layer
  • a spacer element 10 is placed which on the one hand allows the films 5 and 6 of the corresponding face 2 to be kept distanced and on the other hand the gas, in particular CO 2 , to be released through the outer film 6.
  • the spacer element 10 has a base body 11 with a seat 12 for housing a cover or cap 13, and a perimeter edge 14, sealed to the inner surface of the outer film 6.
  • both in the base wall 15 and in the side wall 16 of the base body 11 holes 17 are provided, and corresponding holes 18, 28 are provided in the cap 13, so that the gas, in particular carbon dioxide, produced by the yeast contained in the bag 1, which permeates through the inner film 5, can be evacuated by passing through the aforesaid holes 17, 18, 28 and an opening 19 or corresponding holes provided in the outer film 6 at said cap 13.
  • the spacer element 10 shown in Figure 2 is obtained by modifying a one-way degassing valve of the same Applicant, wherefrom a diaphragm has been removed which prevents the flow of gas from the exterior to the interior and wherein the additional holes 17, 28 have been formed.
  • the spacer element 10 can take on any configuration, without detriment to its function of keeping the films 5 and 6 separate and allowing the release of gas through it.
  • the cap 13 can be eliminated in that not necessary, providing a plurality of holes in the outer film 6 in place of a single opening 19.
  • spacer elements 10 can be provided on the opposite faces of the bag 1.
  • the outer film 6 is provided as continuous, i.e. without holes, it is clear that it could also be perforated, like those of the prior art.
  • spacer elements 10 could be provided, not perforated, distributed over the surface of the faces of the bag, suitable for keeping distanced the films 5, 6 and allowing the release of the gas through the holes provided in the outer film 6.
