Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a resealable container, and in particular, a new and improved resealable container having a recloseable sealing cover which can be withdrawn from one of the sides of the container to gain access to its interior.
  • Reclosable seals have been used for dispensing bags for wet tissues or disposable cleaning wipes.
  • the label on these bags can be pulled back, thereby exposing an opening, allowing access to the wet tissues or wipes inside.
  • these dispensing bags are completely flexible, formed exclusively of a plastic or other suitable flexible material which closely surrounds the pack of wet tissues or wipes. Examples of these dispensing bags include U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,840,270 and 6,026,953, U.S. Des. Pat. No. D 447,054 and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2002/0182359.
  • such known dispensing bags are not well suited for containing food products as these containers fail to provide adequate protection for storing food products.
  • the disclosed resealable container is adapted for use with food products and includes a frame which defines a polygonal shape and a wrapper which surrounds the frame and has a top opening.
  • a sealable sealing layer is adhesively sealed to the top.
  • An additional package used to dispense wet tissues of disposable wipes is a container full of wet tissues marketed under the trade name HUGGIES SUPREMETM.
  • This package includes a rigid tray with hinged rigid lid.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,026,953 An additional recent resealable dispenser-container is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,026,953 in which a resealable dispenser-container is designed for containing wet tissues.
  • the container is made of a flexible sheet material having a top surface opening for dispensing wet tissues.
  • a reinforcing sheet larger than the dispenser opening is attached to the top surface of the container.
  • a resealable flap provides for opening and closing of access to the wet tissues disposed inside the container.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide new and improved containers for food products such as cookies and the like and which the container provides adequate protection for the contents thereof, while concurrently facilitating opening of the container wrapper and resealing the container to protect the contents thereof until the contents are fully consumed.
  • An additional purpose of the present invention is to provide a container which can be manufactured using methods other than those used in prior food containers having resealable openings.
  • a further purpose of the present invention is to use alternative materials for a container for food products.
  • the present invention comprises a food container having a frame defining the shape of the container where the container has a top, bottom and sides connected at the top and bottom.
  • the frame contains a food product.
  • a wrapper surrounds the frame and forms the top, sides and bottom of the container.
  • the top and one side has an access opening sufficiently large to provide access to substantially all the food product contained within the frame.
  • a sealing layer includes a starter portion which can be grasped by a user.
  • the sealing layer is adhesively sealed to the top and the one side around the opening.
  • the sealing layer is resealable when the starter portion is pulled in a direction away from the side to which the sealing layer is sealed to in turn pull and thereby release at least a portion of the sealing layer to provide access to the top access opening.
  • the sealing layer is resealable against the top and side to seal the opening when the sealing layer is laid back against the top and the side.
  • the top of the wrapper includes a flap which has substantially the same dimensions as that of the opening and is permanently affixed to the sealing layer
  • the starter portion includes a tab which projects past an edge of the side of the container to which the starter portion is sealed and is accessible beyond the seal to be grasped by a user, when the starter portion is located at the crimp sealed end of the wrapper.
  • a food container comprises a frame defining a polygonal shape of the container.
  • the container has a top, bottom and side connecting the top and bottom.
  • the frame contains a food product.
  • a wrapper surrounds the frame and forms the top sides and bottom of the container.
  • the top has at least two access openings to provide access to substantially all the food product contained within the frame.
  • At least two sealing layers, each having a starter portion which can be grasped by a user are provided. Each of the sealing layers are adhesively sealed to the top around a respective one of the openings.
  • Each of the sealing layers is resealable when a respective starter portion is pulled in a direction away from the top to in turn pull and thereby release a portion of the respective sealing layer to provide hand access to the respective top access opening and resealable against the top to seal the respective opening when the respective sealing layer is moved back against the top.
  • the frame comprises a tray and the tray comprises two compartments, each compartment accessible through a respective one of the at least two openings.
  • the present invention in another form thereof, relates to a polygonal shaped food container comprising one or more food protectors such as frames containing a food product which define the polygonal shape of the container.
  • the container has a top, bottom and side connecting the top and bottom.
  • a wrapper surrounds one or more of the food products and forms the top, sides and bottom of the container.
  • One of the sides has at least one access opening sufficiently large to allow one or more food protectors to be with withdrawn therethrough.
  • a sealing layer having a starter portion which can be grasped by a user is adhesively sealed to the side around the opening.
  • the sealing layer is releasable when the starter portion is pulled in a direction away from the side to in turn pull and thereby release at least a portion of the sealing layer to provide withdrawal of one or more food protectors and resealable against the side to seal the opening when the sealing layer is moved back against the side.
  • the food protector comprises a tray, a slug surrounding the food product, a core buff surrounding the food product and a frame surrounding the food product, wherein the frame may not include both a top or bottom.
  • the present invention in another form thereof, concerns a polygonal shaped container comprising a wrapper comprising a first flexible material and a second more rigid material than the first material.
  • the second material is incorporated with the wrapper to thereby provide rigidity to the wrapper and define faces of the container.
  • the faces include a top, sides and bottom of the container.
  • the wrapper with incorporated rigid material contains a food product.
  • One of the faces has an access opening sufficiently large to provide access to the food product contained within the wrapper.
  • the sealing layer includes a starter portion which can be grasped by a user. The sealing layer is adhesively sealed to one face around the opening.
  • the sealing layer is releasable when the starter portion is pulled in a direction away from the face to in turn pull and thereby release at least a portion of the sealing layer to provide withdraw of the food products and resealable against the face to seal the opening when the sealing layer is moved back against the face.
  • the present invention comprises a polygonal shaped food container comprising a frame defining the polygonal shape of the container.
  • the container has a top, bottom and sides connecting the top and bottom and frame contains a food product.
  • a wrapper surrounds the frame and forms the top bottom and sides of the container.
  • the top has an access opening sufficiently large to provide access to substantially all of the food product contained within the frame.
  • a rigid lid is hingedly attached to the top which provides access to the top opening.
