Definitions
- the present invention is broadly concerned with the field of bags for holding pourable products such as salt, and more particularly bags having a perforated section that extends substantially, and preferably entirely, horizontally across the bag, for removal and pouring of the product from the bag.
- Bag are commonly used to hold and transport pourable products (i.e., products comprising numerous small pieces). Such products include salt cubes or pellets, animal food, flour, and sugar, to name a few. These pourable products are typically sold in large quantities (e.g., 30-50 lbs.) and in bulk sizes that are difficult for the average person to handle. Even more difficult than carrying these bags is pouring the product from the bulky bag. That is, the consumer must open the bag, attempt to pick up the very heavy bag, and carefully pour the product in a controlled manner. This often results in spilling of the product, which goes from not coming out at all to rapidly falling from the bag and outside of the target area. There is a need for a bag that can be more easily opened at the point of use, as well as more easily poured with minimal or no spillage.
- the invention provides a bag for holding a pourable product.
- the bag comprises front and back panels comprising first and second end portions presenting respective outermost edges and first and second side portions presenting respective outermost edges.
- the front and back panels and the end and side portions cooperate to form a chamber for holding the pourable product.
- the perforations extend from at least one of the respective outermost edges of the first and second side portions at a distance of at least about 50% of “W,” towards the other of the respective outermost edges of the first and second side portions.
- a method of using the above inventive bag comprises tearing the bag at the perforations to create an opening, and causing the pourable product to exit the bag from the opening, preferably by tilting the bag.

Description
- The present application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/413,319, entitled BULK BAG WITH FULL PERFORATION, filed Mar. 6, 2012, which is incorporated by reference herein.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention is broadly concerned with the field of bags for holding pourable products such as salt, and more particularly bags having a perforated section that extends substantially, and preferably entirely, horizontally across the bag, for removal and pouring of the product from the bag.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Bag are commonly used to hold and transport pourable products (i.e., products comprising numerous small pieces). Such products include salt cubes or pellets, animal food, flour, and sugar, to name a few. These pourable products are typically sold in large quantities (e.g., 30-50 lbs.) and in bulk sizes that are difficult for the average person to handle. Even more difficult than carrying these bags is pouring the product from the bulky bag. That is, the consumer must open the bag, attempt to pick up the very heavy bag, and carefully pour the product in a controlled manner. This often results in spilling of the product, which goes from not coming out at all to rapidly falling from the bag and outside of the target area. There is a need for a bag that can be more easily opened at the point of use, as well as more easily poured with minimal or no spillage.
- In one embodiment, the invention provides a bag for holding a pourable product. The bag comprises front and back panels comprising first and second end portions presenting respective outermost edges and first and second side portions presenting respective outermost edges. The front and back panels and the end and side portions cooperate to form a chamber for holding the pourable product. There is a width “W,” defined as the shortest distance between the respective outermost edges of the first and second side portions. The perforations extend from at least one of the respective outermost edges of the first and second side portions at a distance of at least about 50% of “W,” towards the other of the respective outermost edges of the first and second side portions.
- In another embodiment, a method of using the above inventive bag is provided. The method comprises tearing the bag at the perforations to create an opening, and causing the pourable product to exit the bag from the opening, preferably by tilting the bag.

inventive bag 10 can be manufactured by various methods, but the preferred method is described herein. First, a tube or sleeve of plastic is cut to the desired length (represented by “L” inFIG. 3 ). The plastic of which the inventive bag is formed can be any material typically used to form bags carrying bulk products. The plastic should be flexible and stretchable so that the bag collapses as the bulk product is poured from the bag. Preferably, the plastic of which the bag is formed stretches from about 1 to about 2 times at yield, and more preferably about 1.5 times at yield. Furthermore, it is preferred that the bag be formed of a plastic that stretches at least about 4 times, preferably at least about 5 times, and more preferably from about 5 to about 7 times at its break point. Thus, the preferred plastic has an ASTM D882 percent elongation of from about 200% to about 800%, preferably from about 400% to about 700%, and more preferably from about 500% to about 650%. The thickness of the preferred plastic is from about 2 mil to about 14 mil, preferably from about 4 mil to about 10 mil, and more preferably from about 6 mil to about 8 mil. The most preferred material is LLDPE. - A heat seal is then applied at
first end portion 16 in order to formhorizontal seam 30. A film (typically having a 10-mil thickness) is heat-sealed toflap 32 to formpatch 36. C-shapedgrip 38 is then cut (e.g., die-cut) through thepatch 36 andflap 32, thus forminghandle 34, which serves as the primary carrying handle. Theperforations 42 can be added at this time according to conventional methods. - The manufactured bag can then be stored until needed, or immediately filled and sealed. Either way, after the
bag 10 is filled to the desired level, a final heat seal is applied atsecond end portion 18 to create secondhorizontal seam 44, making the filledbag 10 ready for distribution. It will be appreciated that theinventive bag 10 can be used to transport and store numerous types of pourable products, including cubes, pellets, tablets, powders, compacted pieces, and/or granules of those selected from the group consisting of: salt (e.g., water softening, pool treatment, deicing, etc.); animal food (e.g., bird seed, grain, dog or cat food); bulk flour or sugar; cement; seed (e.g., grass seed) and other lawn and garden products; fertilizers; ice; sand; rice; spices; soil (including soil mixtures); pesticides (e.g., fire ant treatments); industrial chemicals; mortar; plaster; marble dust; stones (including pebbles and gravel); and constructions products. Such products will typically cause the bags to weigh from about 20 lbs. to about 100 lbs., and more typically from about 40 lbs. to about 60 lbs. - In use and before pouring, a user would tear the front and
back panels perforations 42 in order to separate (or at least partially separate)strip 48 from theremainder 50 ofbag 10. It will be appreciated that this allows for easy pouring of the product from thebag 10. This controlled pouring allows for fairly exact dispensing of the product, while preventing spillage and waste of the product. This type of opening is particularly advantageous in situations where the bag is being poured into a large opening. The user can just lay the bag on top of the large opening and use both hands to tearperforations 42 andseparate strip 48 fromremainder 50, thus avoiding the need to hold and tilt a heavy bag during product removal.
