A first closure strip typically has one or more continuous closure elements or profiles of various cross-sectional shapes that interlock with one or more closure elements of a second opposing closure strip. These closure mechanisms are known in the art.
- In some instances, closure mechanisms have a zipper strip that has a male profile and a female profile, wherein the male profile has a base and at least one male interlocking member extending from the base toward the female profile. The female profile has a base and at least one female interlocking member extending from the base toward the male profile. The male and female interlocking members are engageable with each other to join the male and female profiles together. One or both of the profiles is provided with at least one high compression member that allows the interlocked profiles to be sealed to thermoplastic film across the widths of respective bases thereof without the interlocking members being crushed or distorted.
- Other closure devices have male and female fastening strips arranged to be interlocked over a predetermined length. The female fastening strip has a female closure element having parallel webs that have hook closure portions. The male fastening strip has a male closure element having parallel webs that also have hook closure portions. The hook portions of the male closure element have guide surfaces to guide the hook portions for occlusion with the female hook portions. The male fastening strip also has wings that are flexible and extend from the base of the fastening strip. The wings terminate in an end portion that projects outwardly from the wings.
- Some fasteners have extruded reclosable plastic profile strips, wherein the profile strips have a plurality of interlocking ribs that have a generally arrow-head shaped cross-section or a fastener rib having a generally arrow-head shaped cross-section on one strip interlockably received in a fastener rib having a generally groove-shaped cross-section on the opposing strip.
- According to one aspect of the present invention, a resealable closure mechanism includes a first closure including a plurality of profiles including two functional male closure profiles and a first plurality of non-functional male closure profiles, wherein at least one of the non-functional male closure profiles is disposed between the two functional male profiles. A second closure opposes the first closure and includes two female closure profiles configured to interlock with the functional male closure profiles. The non-functional male profiles are configured such that the female profiles cannot interlock therewith.
- According to another aspect of the present invention, a resealable closure mechanism includes a first closure strip including a functional male closure profile and a plurality of non-functional male closure profiles, wherein a web of material interconnects the functional and non-functional closure profiles. A second closure strip opposes the first closure strip and includes a female closure profile extending therefrom and configured to interlock with the functional male closure profile. The non-functional male profile is configured such that the female profile cannot interlock therewith.
- Other aspects and advantages of the present application will become apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description. Like reference numerals in the drawings designate like structures in the various embodiments.

Afirst closure strip 26, extending from thefirst side portion 16 to thesecond side portion 18, is secured to an inside surface of thefirst bag wall 12. Second and third closure strips 28 a, 28 b extend from thefirst side portion 16 to thesecond side portion 18 and are secured to an inside surface of thesecond bag wall 14. The first, second, andthird closure strips top portion 24 of thebag 10 and the first closure strip engages the second andthird closure strips - As best seen in
FIG. 2 , the second andthird closure strips female closure profiles female closure profile 30 a includes first andsecond legs hooks legs second closure strip 28 a. Similarly, thefemale closure profile 30 b includes first andsecond legs hooks legs second closure strip 28 b. - The
closure strip 26 includes a web ofmaterial 37 interconnecting a plurality of male closure profiles 40 a-40 j. Themale profiles male profiles 40 c and 40 h are functional male closure profiles in that they are adapted to engage other closure profiles. Thenon-functional male profiles top portion 24 of thebag 10 and the functional male profile 40 c, thenon-functional male profiles 40 d-40 g are disposed between thefunctional male profiles 40 c and 40 h, and thenon-functional male profiles male profile 40 h andbottom portion 20 of thebag 10. - In one embodiment, the functional
male closure profiles 44 c, 44 h have the same general cross-sectional shape. For example, each of the functionalmale closure profiles 40 c, 40 h includes astem 42 c, 42 h with twoopposing hook portions 44 c, 44 h, respectively, that form a generally arrow-shaped cross-section. Thehook portions 44 c, 44 h extend downwardly fromtop portions 45 c, 45 h of thestems 42 c, 42 h toward thefirst closure strip 26, wherein thefunctional male profiles 40 c, 40 h are aligned with thefemale profiles hooks 38 a of thefemale closure profile 30 a and thehook portions 44 h of the functionalmale closure profile 40 h engage thehooks 38 b of thefemale closure profile 30 b to form a closure mechanism to seal thebag 10. - The
non-functional male profiles stems opposing hook portions hook portions middle portions stems first closure strip 26. Thehook portions bag wall 12 small enough to prevent thehooks female closure profiles hook portions male closure profiles - Illustratively if, as a user is closing the
closure strips female closure profiles male closure profiles female closure profile respective stem male closure profile hook portions female closure profile 30 a 30 b will pop off the respective non-functionalmale closure profile female closure profile male closure profile 40 c, 40 h. - Although the embodiment of
FIG. 2 depicts afirst closure strip 26 with ten male closure profiles 40 a-40 j, any number and/or shape of male closure profiles may be used as long as a plurality non-functional male closure profiles surround one or more functional male closure profiles. Further, any number of female closure profiles may be utilized as long as a number of functional male closure profiles are present and aligned for engagement with the female closure profiles to provide a closure mechanism for thebag 10. - In one embodiment, the
first closure strip 26 is extruded onto thefirst bag wall 12 using a die plate shaped to form the male closure profiles 40 a-40 j and the web ofmaterial 37 connecting the male closure profiles 40 a-40 j. Each of thefemale closure profiles second bag wall 14 such that there is no separate material other than thebag wall 14 connecting thefemale closure profiles - The embodiments of the thermoplastic storage bag as described herein advantageously provide a consumer with a bag having a closure mechanism, wherein the closure mechanism comprises at least one functional male closure profile, a plurality of non-functional male closure profiles, and at least one female closure profile. The functional male closure profile and the female closure profile provide a resealable closure for the bag. The non-functional male closure profiles may provide a stabilizer and a guide for a user's fingers. The non-functional male closure profiles further may aide in aligning the functional male closure profile with the female closure profile.
- Numerous modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art in view of the foregoing description. Accordingly, this description is to be construed as illustrative only and is presented for the purpose of enabling those skilled in the art to make and use the embodiments of the application and to teach the best mode of carrying out same.
