- the bag is provided as a wicket bag and has a protruding material section in the bottom area on the front or rear bag wall, in which at least two wicket pin holes are arranged. Since the bag material used cannot be separated and connected by means of cut-off welding, it is particularly advantageous to connect the side edges of the bag to one another over a width of several millimeters by heat sealing. Due to the surfaces of the coating facing the interior and the welding of these opposite sealing coatings, it is sufficient to apply the sealing coating to the paper in a thickness which corresponds to half the sealing material thickness required for joining the side edges. Provision can be made for the floor area to be provided for removing the hygiene article. For this purpose, the bottom area can have a perforation.
- the perforation can be made in particular in the vicinity of the side edges, parallel to the longitudinal dimension of the bag. It is intended to provide the bags for filling with hygiene articles as wicket bags or pin-stack bags.
- the base area can have an opening pointing towards the interior of the bag.
- the bottom area on the front or the rear wall of the bag has a protruding section of material which can be used to close the bag.
- the excess material section also has two wicket pin holes. In order to prevent the material from tearing off when it is pulled off the wicket pin, it can be provided that the protruding material section is folded back on itself and the wicket pin holes are arranged in this double-layered section.
- the side edges sealed to one another are designed as flat seams.
- flat seams are particularly suitable for connecting the two material layers.
- the layers can be connected to one another particularly easily when the flat web of material runs through a welding station, for example by vertically lowering welding bars.
- the seam width can be selected in such a way that two flat seams of adjacent bags can be produced at the same time and can be separated in a subsequent step.
- the predetermined width of the side edges is between 5 to 15 mm, preferably 8 to 12 mm, particularly preferably 10 mm.
- the seam width can For example, depending on the bag size or the item to be packaged, in order to be able to provide the necessary stability individually.
- the bag when filled, can have a body formed by the front and rear bag walls, which has a front surface, a rear surface, two side surfaces connecting the front surface and the rear surface, and two top and bottom surfaces connecting the front surface and the rear surface and adjoining the side surfaces having.
- the flat seams run in the area of the side surfaces.
- the front and rear bag walls can bulge around the packaged items, so that the flat seams run in the area of the side surfaces created by the shape of the item.
- the flat seams can protrude perpendicularly to the side surfaces.
- the flat seams can be heat-sealed to the side surfaces by means of a sealing wax applied to them or to corresponding sections of the side surfaces.
- At least one corner protruding from the body is formed at the transitions between the top surface and the adjoining side surfaces.
- the folding arrangement provided in the head area can have an inlaid head fold, so that at the transitions between the head area and the adjoining side areas, at least two opposite corners protruding from the body are formed.
- the head fold can in particular be designed in such a way that the fold arrangement has three folds in the head area, so that a fold is inserted between the front and rear bag walls.
- the top fold can be used, for example, to create a base with which the filled bag can be placed upright without falling over. Furthermore, the top fold can ensure that the bag has an attractive appearance or that more articles can be accommodated in the bag. If a top fold is provided, the bag has four corners in the top area instead of two, which are caused by the two external folds of the corresponding fold arrangement.
- the head region can in particular have two corners.
- the head region can have four corners in particular. For optical and spatial reasons, it can make sense to fold the protruding corners back onto the bag body.
- the corners folded back onto the top surface can be heat-sealed to the top surface by means of a sealing wax applied at least locally to the paper layer.
- the sealing wax can be applied to the insides of the corners and/or to the corresponding areas of the top surface in a punctiform or flat manner. Since the paper cannot be welded "outside to outside", applying the sealing wax to these areas means that the material can also be connected in these areas.
- the front and rear bag walls can be heat-sealed to one another via a flat seam arranged in the bottom area, extending in the transverse dimension and having the sealable coating in a predetermined width.
- the flat seam protruding from the bag can be attached to the body of the bag, for example, by at least partially applying and heating a sealing wax.
- the width of the flat seam can be dimensioned in such a way that a flat grip strip is formed in the floor area.
- the handle area can be formed in particular after the bag has been filled. In particular, a closing weld can be made below the handle to seal off the interior of the bag. Furthermore, welding can be carried out above the handle, comprising a separation process to the wicket area.
- the bag can have a grip strip arranged in the head area, which is formed by at least partially heat-sealing the front and rear bag walls, the grip strip extending across the transverse dimension and starting from the folding arrangement in the longitudinal direction in a predetermined grip width.
- a grip strip can be provided in the head area.
- the front and rear bag walls may be heat sealed together over the entire area of the handle strip.

- a method for manufacturing bags comprising the following steps: Providing an endless material web which has a paper layer and a sealable coating arranged at least in sections, in particular over the entire surface, on the paper layer, the material web being folded onto one another along the endless direction with the paper layer pointing outwards via a folding arrangement, the material web being folded onto one another in this way that this has a protruding material section opposite the folding arrangement, in which at least two wicket pin holes are arranged;
- sealing seams having at least twice the predetermined width; Separation of the web of material along the applied sealing seams to form individual bags.
- the production of sealing seams with a width that corresponds to twice the predetermined width makes it possible for two side seams of adjacent bags to be produced simultaneously per sealing process. In particular, it can be provided that the seams produced are severed in the middle.
- the heating of the web of material can include preheating of the sealing seams to be applied.
- the heating can already include the heat-sealing of the sealing seams.
- the process step of separating the sealing seams can include fixing the web of material.
- the fixing preferably takes place before the sealing seams are separated.
- severing the seals may include reheating the seals to heat seal the folded layers of web material together.
- provision can be made for the first heating of the web of material, if necessary, and the separation of the sealing seams to take place at separate stations.
- the bag 1 shown in the unfilled state is formed from a continuous web of material 24 .
- the material has a paper layer 2 and a sealable coating 3 arranged over the entire surface.
- the paper layer 2 faces the outside of the bag and the sealable coating 3 faces an interior 4 of the bag.
- the bag has a rectangular shape with a Longitudinal dimension 7 and a transverse dimension 8, the longitudinal dimension 7 being greater than the transverse dimension 8.
- the material web 24 is folded back onto itself in the region of a folding arrangement 11 in the exemplary embodiment shown with an inserted head fold 22, that is, by means of three folds, so that a front bag wall 5 and a rear bag wall 6 are formed.
- the head fold is inserted between the front and rear bag walls 5, 6 by about 6 to 7 centimeters.
- the stacked material web sections have aligned side edges 13 which extend in the longitudinal dimension of the bag.
- the front and rear bag walls 5, 6 are heat-sealed to one another over a predetermined width b, so that 1 cm wide sealing seams 25 designed as flat seams connect the bag walls 5, 6 to one another.
- the front and rear bag walls are not directly welded together, but the front bag wall 5 is welded to the head fold section facing it and the rear bag wall 6 is welded to the head fold section facing it.
- the bag 1 is open in the bottom area 28 of the bag 1, so that no sealing seam is provided in the direction of the transverse dimension 8 on the bottom transverse side 9 .
- a protruding material section 26 protruding beyond the bag opening 30 is provided on the rear bag wall 6 .
- a short length of material web is also folded back onto this, which is also fastened to the side edges 13 by corresponding sealing seams 25 on the rear bag wall 6 .
- Two holes 27 are provided in the folded back portion which serve to secure the bag onto wicket pins. The purpose of the folding back is to prevent the holes 27 from being torn out when the bag 1 is pulled off the wicket pins.
- FIG 2 shows in particular the folding arrangement 11 of the head fold 22 using two adjacent bags 1.
- the head fold 22 has a total of three folds, two of these folds being produced by folding back the front and rear bag walls 5, 6 onto themselves and the third fold is interposed and connects the folded back portions together such that the head portion 10 is in the shape of a "Y" when viewed from the side.
- the sealing seam 25 follows the course of the head fold 22 and is formed on the one hand between the front bag wall 5 and the head fold section folded back onto it and on the other hand between the rear bag wall 6 and the head fold section folded back onto it.
- the bags 1 shown also each have sealing seams 25 with a predetermined width b of 1 cm.
- a filled bag 1 can be seen, which is an embodiment as a bag 1 with a top fold 22 inserted.
- the bag essentially has six Outer surfaces, namely a top surface 19, a front surface 15, a rear surface 16, two opposite side surfaces 17 and 18 and optionally a bottom surface 20.
- a sealing seam 25 runs centrally on the side surface 17 and opposite the other sealing seam 25 on the side surface 18, not shown. This is perpendicular to the side surface 17 or 18 from the bag 1 from.
- corners 21 are formed in the edge regions of the top fold, which, due to their shape and position, cannot be filled with hygiene articles and also protrude from the bag.
- the substantially triangular-shaped corners have the paper layer 2 on their outer surfaces, as do the remaining outer surfaces of the bag 1, in particular the side surfaces 17, 18 adjacent to the corners and the top surface 19. This creates a heat seal between corners 21 and the adjacent areas not easily possible. Therefore, advantageously, a sealing wax may be applied to the top or bottom of the corners 21, or the respective mating surfaces of the bag 1 onto which the corners are folded back. By heat-sealing the corners 21 to the outside of the bag, an attractive appearance and a secure closure of the bag 1 can be ensured.
- FIG 4 shows an embodiment of a bag 1, which has a head area with a "simple" folding arrangement 11, in which the front bag wall 5 is folded back onto the rear bag wall 6 by means of only one fold.
- the filled bag 1 has only two corners 21 protruding laterally from the top surface 19, which in each case directly adjoin the sealing seams 25.
- the corners have, in particular, a tetrahedral shape. It is particularly advantageous here to fold the corners 21 back onto the top surface 19 and to fasten them there by means of the sealing wax.
- FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of a bag 1, which has a head area with a more complex folding arrangement 11, in which a head fold 22 is inserted between the front bag wall 5 and the rear bag wall 6, which is designed as described above.
- the filled bag 1 has corners 21 protruding from the top surface 19 in four opposite edge regions and laterally, each of which includes a sealing seam section on the outside.
- the corners have, in particular, a triangular shape.
- the bottom area 28 shown is located on the transverse side 9 of the bag 1 opposite the head area 10.
- this bottom area 28 is designed as a grip strip 23, which extends in the plane of the longitudinal dimension 7 and the transverse dimension 8 of the bag 1 and thus perpendicularly from the body 14 of the bag 1 protrudes.
- the grip strip 23 has an oval punched-out carrying handle 29, via which the bag can be carried. If the handle strip is arranged alternatively in the head area, it can be produced before the bag is filled, ie when the bag is still flat, by producing a flat sealed seam in the predetermined handle width Gb. If the grip strip is provided in the bottom area, it is heat-sealed over its entire surface after the bag 1 has been filled. In this case, the interior 4 of the bag 1 is also closed. At the upper end of the handle strip 23, the section having the wicket pin holes 27 is separated. The carrying handle 29 is punched out in a separate step.
- FIG 7 shows the bottom area 28 in an enlarged view.
- the protruding material section 26 is provided adjacent to the bag opening 30 and has a free section directly adjacent to the opening 30, in which the sealable coating 3 of the back wall of the bag is exposed.
- Adjacent to this, the bag 1 has the so-called wicket area, in which the rear bag wall 6 is folded back on itself and is heat-sealed either over the entire area or only in the area of the side edges 13 over the predetermined width b.
- two holes 27 are provided in the wicket area in order to attach the bag or a plurality of bags 1 to wicket pins. The folding back prevents the holes from being torn out when a bag 1 is pulled off the wicket pins.
- the Figures 8a and 8b each show an embodiment of the bag 1 with an inserted top gusset 22 on the one hand and a welded-off grip strip 23 on the other hand in a front view and side view.
- the folding arrangement 11 with a top fold 22 serves as a base for the bag 1 by enlarging the top area 19.
- the sealing seams 25 extending over the side areas 17 and 18 spread out in the top area in a “Y” shape in the corners 21 and go into the handle strip on the bottom side 23 over.
- the front bag wall 5 and the rear bag wall 6 curve around the filled bag 1 in such a way that no seams run on the front surface 15 and the rear surface 16 .

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Beutel zum Aufnehmen einer Mehrzahl Hygieneartikel, insbesondere Windeln, welcher aus einem Material gebildet ist, das eine Papierschicht sowie eine zumindest abschnittsweise, insbesondere vollflächig, darauf angeordnete siegelfähige Beschichtung aufweist, welche einem Innenraum des Beutels zugewandt ist, wobei der Beutel eine vordere Beutelwandung und eine rückseitige Beutelwandung aufweist, welche aus einer zusammenhängenden Materialbahn gebildet sind, und welche sich zumindest in einer Längsabmessung und in einer Querabmessung erstrecken, wobei der Beutel an den gegenüberliegenden Querseiten einen Kopfbereich sowie einen Bodenbereich aufweist, wobei die vordere Beutelwandung und die rückseitige Beutelwandung über eine im Kopfbereich vorgesehene Faltungsanordnung aufeinander gefaltet sind und im Bereich von sich in der Längsabmessung erstreckenden, jeweils in einer vorbestimmten Breite die siegelfähige Beschichtung aufweisenden Seitenrändern miteinander heißversiegelt sind.The invention relates to a bag for accommodating a plurality of hygiene articles, in particular diapers, which is formed from a material which has a paper layer and a sealable coating which is arranged on it at least in sections, in particular over the entire surface, and which faces an interior of the bag, the bag having a has a front bag wall and a back bag wall, which are formed from a continuous web of material and which extend at least in a longitudinal dimension and in a transverse dimension, the bag having a head area and a bottom area on the opposite transverse sides, the front bag wall and the back bag wall are folded onto one another via a folding arrangement provided in the head area and in the area of side edges extending in the longitudinal dimension and each having the sealable coating in a predetermined width h are ice sealed.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind insbesondere Hygieneartikelverpackungen aus PE-Folie bekannt. Obwohl es sich dabei um eine wirtschaftlich und ökologisch hochoptimierte Verpackungsanwendung handelt, gibt es bei Verbrauchern Präferenzen für das Material Papier - aufgrund der Vermutung, dass es umweltfreundlicher wäre. Eine besondere Herausforderung dabei ist jedoch, dass eine Trennung und gleichzeitige Verschweißung der Seitenränder der Beutel bei diesem Material nicht mittels Trennschweißen wie bei PE-Beuteln erfolgen kann. Für diese Funktion werden oft Papiere mit einer zusätzlichen Folienschicht, beispielsweise aus Polyethylen PE eingesetzt. Damit kann jedoch die Rezyklierbarkeit und Kompostierbarkeit eingeschränkt sein. Vor diesem Hintergrund sind beispielsweise Beschichtungen zu bevorzugen, die folienfrei sind und einen großen Anteil an biologisch abbaubaren Inhaltsstoffen aufweisen. Ferner besteht eine weitere Herausforderung bei Papier mit siegelfähiger Beschichtung darin, Verpackungsaußenseiten, bei denen jeweils die Papierlage des Materials aufeinander zuweist, beispielsweise in Eckbereichen miteinander zu verbinden.
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine umweltfreundliche Hygieneartikelverpackung derart zu verbessern, dass die Herstellung vereinfacht ist.It is therefore the object of the invention to improve an environmentally friendly hygiene article packaging in such a way that production is simplified.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Beutel mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und durch das Verfahren nach Anspruch 11 gelöst. Die abhängigen Ansprüche betreffen jeweils vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung.This object is achieved by a bag having the features of claim 1 and by the method of
Demgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass der Beutel als Wicketbeutel bereitgestellt ist und im Bodenbereich an der vorderen oder der rückseitigen Beutelwandung einen überstehenden Materialabschnitt aufweist, in welchem zumindest zwei Wicket-Pin-Löcher angeordnet sind. Da das verwendete Beutelmaterial nicht mittels Trennschweißen trenn- und verbindbar ist, ist es besonders vorteilhaft, die Seitenränder des Beutels auf einer Breite von mehreren Millimetern durch Heißversiegeln miteinander zu verbinden. Durch die dem Innenraum zuweisenden Flächen der Beschichtung und das Verschweißen dieser gegenüberliegenden Siegelbeschichtungen ist es ausreichend, die Siegelbeschichtung in einer Dicke auf das Papier aufzubringen, welche der Hälfte der zum Fügen der Seitenränder notwendigen Siegelmaterialdicke entspricht. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Bodenbereich zum Entnehmen der Hygieneartikel vorgesehen ist. Dazu kann der Bodenbereich eine Perforierung aufweisen. Die Perforierung kann insbesondere in der Nähe der Seitenränder parallel zur Längsabmessung des Beutels eingebracht sein. Es ist vorgesehen, die Beutel zum Befüllen mit Hygieneartikeln als Wicketbeutel oder Stiftstapelbeutel bereitzustellen. Dazu kann der Bodenbereich eine zum Innenraum des Beutels weisende Öffnung aufweisen. Ferner weist der Bodenbereich an vorderen oder der rückseitigen Beutelwandung einen überstehenden Materialabschnitt auf Dieser kann zum Verschließen des Beutels dienen. Der überstehende Materialabschnitt weist ferner zwei Wicket-Pin-Löcher auf. Um ein Abreißen des Materials beim Abziehen vom Wicket-Pin zu vermeiden, kann vorgesehen sein, dass der überstehende Materialabschnitt auf sich zurückgefaltet ist und die Wicket-Pin-Löcher in diesem doppellagigen Abschnitt angeordnet sind.Accordingly, it is provided that the bag is provided as a wicket bag and has a protruding material section in the bottom area on the front or rear bag wall, in which at least two wicket pin holes are arranged. Since the bag material used cannot be separated and connected by means of cut-off welding, it is particularly advantageous to connect the side edges of the bag to one another over a width of several millimeters by heat sealing. Due to the surfaces of the coating facing the interior and the welding of these opposite sealing coatings, it is sufficient to apply the sealing coating to the paper in a thickness which corresponds to half the sealing material thickness required for joining the side edges. Provision can be made for the floor area to be provided for removing the hygiene article. For this purpose, the bottom area can have a perforation. The perforation can be made in particular in the vicinity of the side edges, parallel to the longitudinal dimension of the bag. It is intended to provide the bags for filling with hygiene articles as wicket bags or pin-stack bags. For this purpose, the base area can have an opening pointing towards the interior of the bag. Furthermore, the bottom area on the front or the rear wall of the bag has a protruding section of material which can be used to close the bag. The excess material section also has two wicket pin holes. In order to prevent the material from tearing off when it is pulled off the wicket pin, it can be provided that the protruding material section is folded back on itself and the wicket pin holes are arranged in this double-layered section.
Dabei kann insbesondere vorgesehen sein, dass die miteinander versiegelten Seitenränder als Flachnähte ausgebildet sind. Um die Eigenschaften des siegelfähigen Papiers optimal für den Beutel zu nutzen, bieten sich insbesondere Flachnähte zum Verbinden der beiden Materiallagen an. Dadurch können die Lagen besonders leicht beim Durchlaufen der flachen Materialbahn durch eine Schweißstation beispielsweise durch senkrechtes Absenken von Schweißbalken miteinander verbunden werden. Ferner kann die Nahtbreite so gewählt werden, dass zwei Flachnähte benachbarter Beutel gleichzeitig hergestellt werden und in einem nachfolgenden Schritt getrennt werden können.It can be provided in particular that the side edges sealed to one another are designed as flat seams. In order to use the properties of the sealable paper optimally for the bag, flat seams are particularly suitable for connecting the two material layers. As a result, the layers can be connected to one another particularly easily when the flat web of material runs through a welding station, for example by vertically lowering welding bars. Furthermore, the seam width can be selected in such a way that two flat seams of adjacent bags can be produced at the same time and can be separated in a subsequent step.
Außerdem kann vorgesehen sein, dass die vorbestimmte Breite der Seitenränder zwischen 5 bis 15 mm, bevorzugt, 8 bis 12 mm, besonders bevorzugt 10 mm beträgt. Die Nahtbreite kann beispielsweise abhängig von der Beutelgröße oder vom zu verpackenden Artikel gewählt werden, um individuell die notwendige Stabilität bereitstellen zu können.In addition, it can be provided that the predetermined width of the side edges is between 5 to 15 mm, preferably 8 to 12 mm, particularly preferably 10 mm. The seam width can For example, depending on the bag size or the item to be packaged, in order to be able to provide the necessary stability individually.
Ferner kann der Beutel im befüllten Zustand einen durch die vordere und rückseitige Beutelwandung ausgebildeten Körper aufweisen, welcher eine Vorderfläche, eine Rückfläche, zwei die Vorderfläche und die Rückfläche verbindenden Seitenflächen sowie zwei die Vorderfläche und die Rückfläche verbindende und an die Seitenflächen angrenzende Kopf-und Bodenflächen aufweist.Furthermore, when filled, the bag can have a body formed by the front and rear bag walls, which has a front surface, a rear surface, two side surfaces connecting the front surface and the rear surface, and two top and bottom surfaces connecting the front surface and the rear surface and adjoining the side surfaces having.
Darüber hinaus kann vorgesehen sein, dass im befüllten Zustand des Beutels die Flachnähte im Bereich der Seitenflächen verlaufen. Im befüllten Zustand können sich die vordere und die rückseitige Beutelwandung um die verpackten Artikel herumwölben, so dass die Flachnähte im Bereich von durch die Artikelform erzeugte Seitenflächen verlaufen. Die Flachnähte können dabei senkrecht zu den Seitenflächen abstehen. Ferner können die Flachnähte mittels eines auf diese oder auf entsprechende Abschnitte der Seitenflächen aufgebrachten Siegellacks mit den Seitenflächen heißversiegelt sein.In addition, it can be provided that when the bag is filled, the flat seams run in the area of the side surfaces. When filled, the front and rear bag walls can bulge around the packaged items, so that the flat seams run in the area of the side surfaces created by the shape of the item. The flat seams can protrude perpendicularly to the side surfaces. Furthermore, the flat seams can be heat-sealed to the side surfaces by means of a sealing wax applied to them or to corresponding sections of the side surfaces.
Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass an den Übergängen zwischen der Kopffläche und den angrenzenden Seitenflächen jeweils zumindest eine vom Körper abstehende Ecke ausgebildet ist. Durch Befüllen des Beutels mit einer Mehrzahl Artikel, welche im Verbund eine im Wesentlichen würfelförmige Außenkontur aufweisen, passt sich der Beutel an diese Form an und bildet an seinen nicht befüllten Randbereichen nach außen abstehende Ecken aus. Beispielsweise können bei einem Beutel ohne Kopffalte, das heißt, bei Aufeinanderfalten der vorderen und der rückseitigen Beutelwand mittels einer einzigen Umfaltung, zwei Ecken abstehen.It can be provided that at least one corner protruding from the body is formed at the transitions between the top surface and the adjoining side surfaces. By filling the bag with a plurality of articles which, when combined, have an essentially cube-shaped outer contour, the bag adapts to this shape and forms corners protruding outwards on its unfilled edge regions. For example, in the case of a bag without a top fold, that is to say when the front and rear bag walls are folded onto one another by means of a single fold, two corners protrude.
Außerdem kann die im Kopfbereich vorgesehene Faltungsanordnung eine eingelegte Kopffalte aufweisen, so dass an den Übergängen zwischen der Kopffläche und den angrenzenden Seitenflächen jeweils zumindest zwei gegenüberliegende vom Körper abstehende Ecken ausgebildet sind. Die Kopffalte kann insbesondere so ausgebildet sein, dass die Faltenanordnung im Kopfbereich drei Umfaltungen aufweist, so dass eine Falte zwischen vorderer und rückseitiger Beutelwandung eingelegt ist. Die Kopffalte kann beispielsweise dazu dienen, einen Standfuß zu erzeugen, mit welchem der befüllte Beutel aufrecht hingestellt werden kann, ohne umzufallen. Ferner kann die Kopffalte bewirken, dass der Beutel eine ansprechende Optik aufweist beziehungsweise mehr Artikel im Beutel aufgenommen werden können. Bei Vorsehen einer Kopffalte weist der Beutel im Kopfbereich vier anstelle von zwei Ecken auf, welche aufgrund der zwei außenliegenden Umfaltungen der entsprechenden Faltenanordung entstehen.In addition, the folding arrangement provided in the head area can have an inlaid head fold, so that at the transitions between the head area and the adjoining side areas, at least two opposite corners protruding from the body are formed. The head fold can in particular be designed in such a way that the fold arrangement has three folds in the head area, so that a fold is inserted between the front and rear bag walls. The top fold can be used, for example, to create a base with which the filled bag can be placed upright without falling over. Furthermore, the top fold can ensure that the bag has an attractive appearance or that more articles can be accommodated in the bag. If a top fold is provided, the bag has four corners in the top area instead of two, which are caused by the two external folds of the corresponding fold arrangement.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die an den Übergängen zwischen der Kopffläche und den angrenzenden Seitenflächen jeweils zumindest eine vom Körper abstehende Ecke auf die Kopffläche zurückgefaltet ist. Bei der Faltenanordnung ohne Kopffalte kann der Kopfbereich insbesondere zwei Ecken aufweisen. Bei der Faltenanordnung mit Kopffalte kann der Kopfbereich insbesondere vier Ecken aufweisen. Aus optischen und aus räumlichen Gründen kann es dabei sinnvoll sein, die abstehenden Ecken auf den Beutelkörper zurückzufalten.Provision can be made for at least one corner protruding from the body at the transitions between the top surface and the adjoining side surfaces to be folded back onto the top surface. In the fold arrangement without a head fold, the head region can in particular have two corners. In the case of the fold arrangement with a head fold, the head region can have four corners in particular. For optical and spatial reasons, it can make sense to fold the protruding corners back onto the bag body.
Insbesondere können die auf die Kopffläche zurückgefalteten Ecken mittels eines auf die Papierschicht zumindest örtlich aufgetragenen Siegellacks mit der Kopffläche heißversiegelt sein. Der Siegellack kann dabei jeweils auf die Innenseiten der Ecken und/oder auf die entsprechenden Stellen der Kopffläche punktuell oder flächig aufgebracht sein. Da das Papier nicht "Außen-auf-außen" verschweißt werden kann, bewirkt das Auftragen des Siegellacks auf diese Stellen, dass auch in diesen Bereichen das Material verbunden werden kann.In particular, the corners folded back onto the top surface can be heat-sealed to the top surface by means of a sealing wax applied at least locally to the paper layer. The sealing wax can be applied to the insides of the corners and/or to the corresponding areas of the top surface in a punctiform or flat manner. Since the paper cannot be welded "outside to outside", applying the sealing wax to these areas means that the material can also be connected in these areas.
Ferner können über eine im Bodenbereich angeordnete, sich in der Querabmessung erstreckende und in einer vorbestimmten Breite die siegelfähige Beschichtung aufweisende Flachnaht die vordere und die rückseitige Beutelwandung miteinander heißversiegelt sein. Dadurch kann der Beutel nach dem Befüllen verschlossen werden. Die vom Beutel abstehende Flachnaht kann beispielsweise durch zumindest abschnittsweises Auftragen und Erhitzen eines Siegellacks auf dem Beutelkörper befestigt werden. Die Breite der Flachnaht kann so bemessen sein, dass im Bodenbereich eine flache Griffleiste ausgebildet ist. Der Griffbereich kann insbesondere nach Befüllen der Beutel ausgebildet werden. Dabei kann unterhalb des Griffs insbesondere eine Schließschweißung zum Abschließen des Innenraums des Beutels erfolgen. Oberhalb des Griffs kann ferner eine Schweißung umfassend einen Abtrennvorgang zum Wicket-Bereich erfolgen.Furthermore, the front and rear bag walls can be heat-sealed to one another via a flat seam arranged in the bottom area, extending in the transverse dimension and having the sealable coating in a predetermined width. This allows the bag to be closed after filling. The flat seam protruding from the bag can be attached to the body of the bag, for example, by at least partially applying and heating a sealing wax. The width of the flat seam can be dimensioned in such a way that a flat grip strip is formed in the floor area. The handle area can be formed in particular after the bag has been filled. In particular, a closing weld can be made below the handle to seal off the interior of the bag. Furthermore, welding can be carried out above the handle, comprising a separation process to the wicket area.
Ferner kann der Beutel eine im Kopfbereich angeordnete Griffleiste aufweisen, welche durch zumindest abschnittsweises Heißversiegeln der vorderen mit der rückseitigen Beutelwandung gebildet ist, wobei sich die Griffleiste über die Querabmessung und ausgehend von der Faltungsanordnung in Längsrichtung in einer vorbestimmten Griffbreite erstreckt. Bei dieser Ausführungsform kann anstelle der eingelegten Kopffalte oder anstelle der Ausbildung des Beutels als Flachbeutel im Kopfbereich eine Griffleiste vorgesehen sein. Die vordere und die hintere Beutelwandung können über den gesamten Bereich der Griffleiste miteinander heißversiegelt sein. Die vordere und die hintere Beutelwandung können auch nur über einen Teilbereich der Griffleiste miteinander heißversiegelt sein. Dabei kann die vorbestimmte Griffbreite 4-8 cm, bevorzugt 5-7 cm, besonders bevorzugt 8 cm aufweisen.Furthermore, the bag can have a grip strip arranged in the head area, which is formed by at least partially heat-sealing the front and rear bag walls, the grip strip extending across the transverse dimension and starting from the folding arrangement in the longitudinal direction in a predetermined grip width. In this embodiment, instead of the inlaid head fold or instead of the bag being designed as a flat bag, a grip strip can be provided in the head area. The front and rear bag walls may be heat sealed together over the entire area of the handle strip. The front and rear bag walls can also be heat-sealed to one another over just a portion of the grip strip. The predetermined grip width can be 4-8 cm, preferably 5-7 cm, particularly preferably 8 cm.
AuĂźerdem kann die Griffleiste einen ausgestanzten Tragegriff aufweisen.In addition, the handle strip can have a punched-out carrying handle.
Ferner wird ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von Beuteln nach einem der vorangehenden AnsprĂĽche beansprucht, aufweisend die folgenden Schritte:
Bereitstellen einer endlosen Materialbahn, welche eine Papierschicht sowie eine zumindest abschnittsweise, insbesondere vollflächig, auf der Papierschicht angeordnete siegelfähige Beschichtung aufweist, wobei die Materialbahn entlang der Endlosrichtung mit der Papierschicht nach außen weisend über eine Faltungsanordnung aufeinander gefaltet ist, wobei die Materialbahn so aufeinander gefaltet ist, dass diese der Faltungsanordnung gegenüberliegend einen überstehenden Materialabschnitt aufweist, in welchem zumindest zwei Wicket-Pin-Löcher angeordnet sind;Furthermore, a method for manufacturing bags according to any one of the preceding claims is claimed, comprising the following steps:
Providing an endless material web which has a paper layer and a sealable coating arranged at least in sections, in particular over the entire surface, on the paper layer, the material web being folded onto one another along the endless direction with the paper layer pointing outwards via a folding arrangement, the material web being folded onto one another in this way that this has a protruding material section opposite the folding arrangement, in which at least two wicket pin holes are arranged;
Erhitzen der Materialbahn im Bereich von quer zur Endlosrichtung aufzubringenden Siegelnähten, wobei die Siegelnähte zumindest die doppelte vorbestimmte Breite aufweisen; Trennen der Materialbahn längs der aufgebrachten Siegelnähte zu einzelnen Beuteln. Durch das Herstellen von Siegelnähten mit einer Breite, die der doppelten vorbestimmten Breite entspricht, wird ermöglicht, dass pro Siegelungsvorgang zwei Seitennähte aneinander grenzender Beutel gleichzeitig herstellbar sind. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass die hergestellten Nähte mittig durchtrennt werden.heating the material web in the area of sealing seams to be applied transversely to the endless direction, the sealing seams having at least twice the predetermined width; Separation of the web of material along the applied sealing seams to form individual bags. The production of sealing seams with a width that corresponds to twice the predetermined width makes it possible for two side seams of adjacent bags to be produced simultaneously per sealing process. In particular, it can be provided that the seams produced are severed in the middle.
Dabei kann das Erhitzen der Materialbahn ein Vorwärmen der aufzubringenden Siegelnähte umfassen. Alternativ kann bereits das Erhitzen das Heißversiegeln der Siegelnähte umfassen.The heating of the web of material can include preheating of the sealing seams to be applied. Alternatively, the heating can already include the heat-sealing of the sealing seams.
Dabei kann der Verfahrensschritt des Trennens der Siegelnähte ein Fixieren der Materialbahn umfassen. Vorzugsweise erfolgt das Fixieren vor dem Trennen der Siegelnähte.The process step of separating the sealing seams can include fixing the web of material. The fixing preferably takes place before the sealing seams are separated.
Außerdem kann das Trennen der Siegelnähte ein erneutes Erhitzen der Siegelnähte zum Heißversiegeln der aufeinandergefalteten Materialbahnschichten umfassen. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass das gegebenenfalls erste Erhitzen der Materialbahn und das Trennen der Siegelnähte an separaten Stationen erfolgt.Additionally, severing the seals may include reheating the seals to heat seal the folded layers of web material together. In particular, provision can be made for the first heating of the web of material, if necessary, and the separation of the sealing seams to take place at separate stations.
