Definitions

  • This invention relates to closures formed of flat material such as extruded polystyrene and particularly to a multiclosure strip of such material.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide such a multi-closure strip, the individual closures of which may be relatively completely separated from the strip by the mere applicationof a lateral pressure locally against opposite edges of the strip.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the multi-closure strip of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged detail view of the structure and the optimum dimensions of one of the closures of said strip and the frangible means by which it is integrally united with adjacent closures in opposite directions therefrom in said strip.
  • FIG. 3 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 4 is an enlarged diagrammatic elevational view illustrating adjacent portions of a consecutive pair of closures in said closure strip and showing how the application of two co-planar forces applied in opposite directions in the plane of said strip to opposite side edges of said two closures simultaneously fractures the closure connecting webs at their opposite ends within the areas in which said webs had been united with said closures, thereby completely separating said closures from each other and from said webs.
  • FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 1 illustrating in perspective a modified form of the multi-closure strip of the invention.
  • the preferred embodiment of the invention disclosed therein comprises a multi-closure strip 15 which is preferably formed from a thin ilat strip of polystyrene or the like which is about .032 inch in thickness and /8 of an inch in width and is die-formed to produce in said strip a consecutive series of closures 16 each of which has a heart shaped bag-neck-confining mouth 17 which is connected to one of the edges 18 of the closure by a narrow opening 19 having widely flaring lips 20.
  • the die-cutting operation cuts a notch 21 in strip side edge 18 and a notch 22 from the opposite side edge 23 of said strip said notches being arranged symmetrically relative to transverse aXes 24 which are equally spaced from the transverse axes 2,5 of the bag-neck-confining mouths l7 and openings 19.
  • a transverse slot 30 is formed symmetrical with axis 24, this slot constituting a rectangle having a dimension lengthwise of the strip of .0625 inch and having its ends closed by two webs 31, the length of which is equal to the width of said slot, the transverse dimension of which webs being .039 inch.
  • the webs 31 are preferably uniform in width throughout their length and inner portions of notches 21 and 22 preferably have parallel walls 32 which are spaced apart the same distance as the width of slot 30 and are in alignment with the transverse walls of said slot. It is thus to be noted that all four angles with which each of the Webs 31 meets the consecutive pair of closures 16 which are integrally joined by said webs are right angles. The significance of this will be pointed out hereinafter.
  • the polystyrene from which the multi-closure strip 15 is made is particularly suitable because of the stifiness combined with flexibility which it gives to the closures 16 thus adapting them to be applied and removed from a bag many times without injuring the closure. I have discovered that it is'highly desirable to make the webs 31 longer than they are wide and at the same time to make them relatively narrow.
  • a closure strip 36 shown in FIG. was developed by me in which webs 37 are provided which are located outwardly adjacent to widely diverging edges 38 of notches 39 and 59 formed in the left and right edges respectively of closure strip 36. f /hen performing the operation shown in FIG. 4 on closure strip 36, simultaneous fractures at opposite ends of both of the webs 37 occur although there is a tendency to form a sharp corner between the fracture areas at the ends of Webs 37 and an adjacent edge 38 of one of the notches 39 and 40. It is preferable therefore to place the webs connecting consecutive closures inwardly from the flaring edges of notches 21 and 22, as in multi-closure trip 15, so as to eliminate this sharpness.
  • each closure 16 when it becomes the lowermost closure in the strip resist buckling when the finger 35 is applied transversely to one edge of the closure in order to shift this closure laterally and thus separate it from the next closure thereabove
  • the use of polystyrene as the material from which the closure strip is made attains significance in that the characteristics of this material of stiffness and frangi-bility not only imparts to the closure a high resistance to buckling when subjected to such a transverse force but also renders the webs 31 when made with sufiiciently small cross section, readily frangible simultaneously at their opposite ends as a result of the force applied by finger 35 transversely to the lowermost closure and accomplishes this before the pressure from finger 35 against the closure reaches a point which would cause a buckling of the closure which would interfere with the simultaneous rotation of the webs with resultant fracturing of these along the lines of their union with the two closures connected thereby.
  • closures each may have a bag confining mouth and a narrow opening located in a longitudinal side edge thereof and communicating with said mouth for admitting a bag neck into the latter;
  • the structure comprising: a multiple of closures of transversely stiff, thin, sheet material comprising polystyrene or the like, arranged consecutively with their transverse edges in closely spaced relation; and web means integrally connecting with each consecutive pair of do sures in frangible areas of union located between opposite ends of said web means and said closely spaced edges of said consecutive closures, said frangible areas being spaced far enough apart length-wise of said strip and being sufiicie-ntly restricted in the cross sectional dimension thereof measured transversely of said strip, that compressive forces applied in the plane of said strip from opposite directions respectively to said consecutive closures and through said closures to opposite ends of said web means without causing said closures to buckle, will cause the material of said strip to substantially simultaneously crack in said frangible areas of union at the opposite ends of said web means
