  • the permeable layer 130 may generally be permeable to water vapor and/or oxygen or other gases, allowing water vapor and/or oxygen or other gases to flow through the layer without allowing the humidity control agent 120 to flow through the permeable layer. It may thus be appreciated that the permeable layer 130 may be impermeable to aqueous solutions, such as saturated or unsaturated salt solutions used as a humidity control agent 120 in some embodiments.
  • Materials that may be employed for the permeable layer 130 may include, but are not limited to, a polymeric film, fibrous polyethylene (TYVEK ® ) or other nonwoven structures, polyesters such as an elastomer, or polyamide Pebax laminated onto a suitable substrate such, but not limited to, as paper.

While a rectangular humidity control device 105 is depicted in FIG. 1C , the humidity control device may have any suitable shape.
  • the box 170 may be a product package, or part of a product package, and may be configured to receive a consumer product, such as a food product, tobacco product, or other product.
  • the humidity control device 150 may help to control humidity within the headspace of the box 170.
  • the process 200 may include unwinding a roll of base material 210 to form a base layer 212 on a conveyer belt 205, extruding or otherwise dispensing a humidity control agent 222 from an extruder 220 or other dispensing device, unwinding a roll of permeable material 230 to form a permeable layer 232, and applying heat from a heater 240 to seal the permeable layer to the base layer.

  • the base material and permeable material are described as being on a rolls 210, 230, the materials may generally be in any suitable form, such as sheets or individually pre-cut and/or pre-sized pieces.
  • the conveyer belt 205 or other moving surface may move intermittently or continuously.
  • a vacuum or other device may operate to hold or pull the base material against the belt 205 or other surface to increase registration precision.
  • the humidity control agent 222 may be applied in discrete "patches" on the base layer 212 material, each patch surrounded by a perimeter of exposed base layer material.
  • the individual humidity control agent 222 patches may form individual humidity control devices in some embodiments.
  • the humidity control agent 222 may be a solid, dispersion, emulsion, gel, or saturated or unsaturated solution. In this way, the humidity control agent 222 may be applied to the base layer 212 using different mechanisms based, at least in part, on the medium of the control agent.
  • the permeable layer 232 may be flexible and may be applied such that it may generally drape over each patch of humidity control agent 222 and onto the exposed upper surface of the base layer 212.

  • a pocket, bubble, or generally recessed or concave area may be formed in the permeable material before it is placed over the patch of humidity control agent 222 in order to accommodate the humidity control agent 222 and to ensure a smooth contact with the base layer 212 and avoid folds, channels, or gathers. That is, a shallow pocket may be formed in a central region of the permeable material that will directly cover a patch of humidity control agent 222, as shown for example in FIG. 1A . For example, appropriately sized rolls of the permeable material may be fed to a unit that creates the desired pocket in the material and/or cut off individual permeable layer 232 pieces containing pockets for placement over humidity control agent 222 patches.
  • contact between the permeable material and patch may beneficially aid in temporarily holding the permeable material in place while the perimeter of the permeable layer 232 is sealed or otherwise adhered to the perimeter of the base layer 212.
  • the one or more registration devices 250, 260 may produce an electronic signal-or cause an electronic signal to be produced-upon detecting a registration marker. Such signals may result in initiating an automated adjustment to a component of the humidity control device or a component of the process, providing an alert to an operator, halting production, making one or more adjustments, or other actions.
  • one or more automated or partially automated inspection devices may be incorporated into the process 200 or other processes of the present disclosure, providing a defect detection function to increase consistency and/or quality.
  • a sealing system 240 may be used to adhere the perimeter of the permeable layer 232 to the exposed perimeter of the base layer 212.
  • the sealing system 240 may include a heater for heat sealing the permeable layer 232 and base layer 212, an ultrasonic welding system, a pressure sealing system, an adhesive application system, and/or other means for bonding the two layers together.
  • the permeable material and base material may be configured to seal or adhere together, via heat sealing for example.
  • the base layer 212 and/or permeable layer 232 are comprised of multiple layers of material(s), one or more of the layers may be sealed or adhered to one or more other layers.

  • a bonding material such as an adhesive material or a heat sealable material.
  • the two materials may be chemically compatible to form heat seals or other seals at particular temperatures, pressure, and/or dwell times.
  • sealant materials are polyethylene and some of its copolymers and ionomers, heat seal coated oriented films such as polypropylene or polyethylene terephthalate, nylon or others polymer types and films.
  • an adhesive such as a heat activated adhesive, may be applied to the surface of the base material and/or the perimeter surface of the permeable material that will contact the base material. The adhesive may be applied to an entire surface of the base material and/or permeable material, or may be applied to a perimeter, for example, so as not to interfere with the humidity control agent 222.
  • a hot-melt type adhesive material may be applied to the base layer 212 in a molten state.
  • the adhesive material may be applied with a suitable temperature and in a suitable amount such that the adhesive material may be configured to retain sufficient heat to bond the permeable layer 232 to the base layer 212.
  • the adhesive material may be heated to a temperature of between approximately 250 degrees Fahrenheit and approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit before being applied to the base layer 212.
  • the adhesive material may be applied on the base layer 212 to form a continuous perimeter or partial perimeter around the humidity control agent 222.
  • the adhesive material may be applied to the base layer 212 in a plurality of discrete locations, such as in dots.
  • the application temperature and time between application and contact of the permeable layer 232 may be configured such that as the permeable layer is applied, the adhesive material may be configured to remain above its solidification temperature. In this way, when the permeable layer 232 and suitable pressure are applied, the discrete locations or dots may flow together and form a continuous perimeter or partial perimeter that operates to contain the humidity control agent 222 between the base layer 212 and the permeable layer.
  • the hot-melt type adhesive material may be selected to retain a relatively high degree of tackiness, so as to facilitate maintenance of bonding the two layers through distribution and use of the humidity control device.
