Description

  TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a soft packaging bag, and more particularly to a soft packaging pouch excellent in the pouring property of high-viscosity contents.

Soft packaging pouches that have a laminate film with a sealant layer made of heat-sealable thermoplastic resin facing each other and heat-sealed are used as packaging containers for storing various contents including food. Yes. In recent years, it has come to be used as a container for business use for storing contents other than food, such as printing ink and industrial chemicals, in addition to conventional food-oriented applications.

  For business use, because the amount of contents to be stored is large, the size of the pouch also becomes large, and when the content is high in viscosity, it is difficult to squeeze out and the amount that is attached to the inner surface of the pouch and is wasted Becomes so large that it cannot be ignored.

  When the contents are squeezed out, it is routinely performed to squeeze the pouch in two, but in the case of a pouch that is large to some extent, the film is stiff and difficult to fold. In order to easily squeeze out the contents, the shape of the pouch may be elongated. However, when the capacity of the pouch is increased, the shape becomes very elongated, which is not realistic.

  The double-folded pouch described in Patent Document 1 that is the application of the applicant is a pouch that can be used in a folded state when the contents are poured out. This pouch is not intended to make it easy to squeeze out the high-viscosity contents, but the problem that conventional film refilling standing pouches have the disadvantage that they cannot be reduced because the film is strong and thick. This is made to solve the problem that the spout is likely to be blocked when it is poured out.

JP 2009-78831 A

  The double-folded pouch described in Patent Document 1 is composed of a single space in which the storage portion is in full communication, and is simply folded in half. Therefore, for high-viscosity contents, It was insufficient. In addition, there is a problem that manufacturing is not easy due to the provision of a palm seal portion at the bent portion.

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is to propose a pouch that can be easily manufactured, and has excellent operability and suitability for squeezing out and pouring out high-viscosity contents. Is.

As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a pouch formed by sealing the periphery of a laminate having at least a base material layer and a sealant layer with the sealant layers facing each other. The direction of the center line in the width direction of the pouch coincides with the direction in which the contents are poured out, the width of the spout is narrower than the inner width of the pouch, and the inner width of the pouch is almost an integer or the like center line seal portion of the parallel straight in a width direction of the pouch in a position min to is provided, the straight line-like seal portion, rather in contact with the periphery of the pouch,
The pouch is easy to pour out, wherein the number of the linear seal portions is two .

  The invention according to claim 2 is the pouch according to claim 1, wherein the linear seal portion has a thickness of 1 mm to 10 mm.

  The invention according to claim 3 is the pouch according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the linear seal portion is dotted line or chain line.

  The invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that the distance from the planned opening position of the spout to the tip of the linear seal portion is 10 mm or more. This pouch is easy to pour out.

  The pouch that is easy to pour out according to the present invention is such that the direction of the center line in the width direction of the pouch coincides with the pour direction of the contents, and the width of the spout is narrower than the inner width of the pouch. In addition, since a linear seal portion parallel to the center line in the width direction of the pouch is provided at a position that divides the inner width of the pouch into almost an integer, the pouch is folded in half in the vertical direction or beyond. It is easy to fold, and the operation of squeezing the contents in a vertically folded state can be reliably performed. For this reason, even a highly viscous content can be poured out without leaving any squeezing.

  The linear seal portion is not in contact with the periphery of the pouch and has a certain interval. When filling is performed from the filling opening on the side opposite to the spout, the linear seal portion does not reach the filling opening, so that there is no obstacle to filling. Further, since the spout is not divided by the linear seal portion, the opening area can be secured and the pouring property is good.

  When the thickness of the linear seal portion is 1 mm to 10 mm, the pouch is easily folded vertically without causing a seal failure.

  When the linear seal portion is a dotted line or a chain line shape, the content can pass through the linear seal portion to some extent, so that the distribution of the content is easily leveled and the squeezing is performed. Performed smoothly.

  When the distance from the planned opening position of the spout to the tip of the linear seal portion is 10 mm or more, a wide opening area of the spout is ensured when pouring. For this reason, the time required for extraction can be shortened.

  When the number of the linear seal portions is one or two, it is easy to manufacture the pouch, and it is easy to vertically fold the pouch even when the contents are poured out. Good usability.

A pouch that can be easily dispensed according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view showing one reference embodiment of the pouch (1) that can be easily dispensed according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view showing a state in which after filling the pouch shown in FIG. 1 with the contents (11), the filling opening (3) is sealed and the filling seal portion (10) is provided. is there. FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a state in which the pouch shown in FIG. 2 is opened, folded in half, and the contents (11) are poured out from the spout (12). This will be described below with reference to these drawings.

The pouch (1) according to the present invention, which is easy to pour out, comprises a laminate having at least a base material layer and a sealant layer, the sealant layers are opposed to each other, the periphery is sealed, and the periphery seal portion (2) is provided. The direction of the center line (4) in the width direction of the pouch is coincident with the direction (13) into which the contents are poured, and the width (8) of the spout is the inner width (7) of the pouch. A linear seal portion (5) parallel to the center line (4) in the width direction of the pouch is provided at a position that is narrower than the inner width (7) of the pouch and is substantially divided by an integer. The shaped seal portion (5) is not in contact with the periphery of the pouch. In the reference mode shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, one linear seal portion is provided at a position that divides the inner width into two equal parts. Since the linear seal portion (5) is not in contact with the peripheral edge of the pouch, the filling opening (3) can be secured widely during filling, and the linear seal portion (5) obstructs the filling. It will never be.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view showing a state where the filling opening (3) is sealed and the filling seal portion (10) is provided after the pouch shown in FIG. 1 is filled with the contents (11). Even after the filling seal portion (10) is provided, the linear seal portion (5) does not contact the filling seal portion (10) and maintains a constant interval as shown in the figure. By doing so, the storage part in the pouch is not completely divided into two by the linear seal part (5), and the contents can be moved to the left and right, so that the distribution of the contents is made uniform. Is done.

  About the thickness of a linear seal part (5), it is desirable that they are 1 mm or more and 10 mm or less. If it is less than 1 mm, there is a risk of causing a sealing failure. If it is more than 10 mm, it becomes difficult to fold the pouch vertically.

The shape of the linear seal portion (5) may be a continuous line, but may be a dotted line, a one-dot chain line, a two-dot chain line, or the like. In the case of a dotted line or chain line shape, the content (11) can pass through the linear seal portion (5) to some extent. Therefore, when the content (11) is squeezed, the linear seal portion (5) is removed. The amount of contents in the sandwiched storage parts on both sides is made uniform, and smoother squeezing becomes possible. FIG. 6 shows a reference mode when the shape of the linear seal portion (5) is a dotted line.

  The distance (9) from the planned opening line (6), which is the planned opening position of the spout (12), to the tip of the linear seal portion (5) is preferably 10 mm or more. If this distance is too close, or if the tip of the linear seal portion (5) reaches the expected opening line (6), the spout (12) will be divided, resulting in the spout. The cross-sectional area of (12) becomes narrow, and smooth dispensing becomes impossible. If the distance (9) from the expected opening line (6), which is the expected opening position, to the tip of the linear seal portion (5) is 10 mm or more, smoother dispensing is possible.

4 and 5 are schematic plan views showing other reference modes of the pouch (1) that can be easily poured according to the present invention. Thus, the shape of the pouch (1) that is easy to pour according to the present invention is not particularly limited, and the direction of the center line in the width direction of the pouch matches the pour direction of the contents. The width of the spout (8) is narrower than the inner width (7) of the pouch, and the pouch width center line ( The linear seal portion (5) parallel to 4) may be provided as long as the linear seal portion (5) satisfies the condition that it does not contact the periphery of the pouch. The shape of the pouch is preferably symmetrical with respect to the center line (4) in the width direction from the viewpoint of ease of squeezing when folded vertically.

Figure 7 is a schematic plan view showing an embodiment of a pouring easy pouch according to the present invention (1). In this embodiment, two linear seal portions (5) are provided at positions that divide the inner width (7) of the pouch into three equal parts. In this example, when the contents are poured out, the pouch can be squeezed by folding it into three vertically, so that the pouring property is further improved.

  Note that the number of linear seal portions (5) is appropriately determined depending on the size of the pouch, the thickness of the laminated body constituting the pouch, and the like.

  As a material used for the pouch (1) which can be easily poured according to the present invention, a laminate usually used for a flexible packaging bag can be used. As the substrate layer, paper, metal foil or synthetic resin film consisting of one layer or several layers is used. For example, low density polyethylene resin (LDPE), high density polyethylene resin (HDPE), linear low density polyethylene resin (LLDPE), polypropylene resin (PP), polyolefin resin such as polyolefin elastomer, polyethylene terephthalate resin (PET), polyester resins such as polybutylene terephthalate resin (PBT), polyethylene naphthalate resin (PEN), cellulose resins such as cellophane and cellulose triacetate (TAC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin, ethylene- Vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA), ionomer resin, polybutene resin, polyacrylonitrile resin, polyamide resin, polystyrene resin (PS), polyvinyl chloride resin (PVC), polyvinylidene chloride Resin (PVDC), polycarbonate resin (PC), fluorine-based resin, synthetic resin films and paper, such as urethane resin, a metal foil or the like alone or be used in combination. The base material layer includes a printing layer and an adhesive layer as necessary.

  As the paper, high-quality paper, piece art paper, coated paper, cast coated paper, imitation paper, and the like can be used. It is also effective to use paper from the viewpoint of environmental considerations.

  As the sealant layer, polyolefin resin is generally used. Specifically, low density polyethylene resin, medium density polyethylene resin, linear low density polyethylene resin, ethylene / vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene / α-olefin are used. An ethylene resin such as a copolymer, a polypropylene resin such as a homopolypropylene resin, a propylene / ethylene random copolymer, a propylene / ethylene block copolymer, and a propylene / α-olefin copolymer are used. In addition, a multilayer film in which these resins are combined may be used.

  Specific examples of the structure of the laminate include a film composed of PET / printing layer / adhesive layer / stretched polyamide resin film (ONY) / adhesive layer / LLDPE, ONY / adhesive layer / LLDPE, ONY / Adhesive layer / ONY / adhesive layer / LLDPE, paper / LDPE / aluminum foil / LDPE, paper / LDPE, and the like.
