Definitions

  • ABSTRACT [30] Foreign Application Priority Data Mar. 16, 1972 Germany.................... 7209949[U] A package or container with three independent compartments, sealed from each other, with the package being formed of two V-shaped webs of heat seal re- [52] US. Cl. 229/56; 206/484; 206/219 B65d 31/12; B65d 73/00; B65d 77/00 [51] Int. Cl... [58] Field of Search sponsive packaging material with one inserted into the other and a heat seal is provided around the periphery of the package.
  • the invention relates generally to a package or container and, more particularly, to a package which has several compartments that are sealed off from each other to avoid contact between the respective contents.
  • An aspect of the present invention resides in the provision of a package for reactive multi-component compositions having a multi-layer sandwich-like construction composed of a first heat seal responsive sheet-like packaging material initially folded lengthwise substantially in V-shape form and a second heat seal responsive material constituting a dividing wall also initially folded lengthwise in substantially V-shape form and disposed in substantially parallel relationship within the opening of the first packaging material.
  • a first continuous seal extends all along the fold line or edge to bond or adhere together the adjacent surfaces of the first and second flexible material
  • a second and third continuous seal extends more or less at right angle to the first seal joining at one end the first seal and being axially spaced relative to each other
  • a fourth seal extends substantially vertically spaced parallel to the first seal and between and connecting to the second and third seal with all of the seals being of substantially identical construction to effect the establishment of three sealed and separated compartments each containing a dissimilar reacting or reactive material.
  • FIGURE drawing is a fragmentary, perspective view of the package or container including the inner compartments thereof.
  • a package 1 composed of heat seal responsive packaging material such as sheet-like flexible plastic formed of cellophane, polyethylene, acetates, polyvinyl and the like.
  • heat seal responsive packaging material such as sheet-like flexible plastic formed of cellophane, polyethylene, acetates, polyvinyl and the like.
  • the package 1 is composed initially of two webs (not shown as such) of packaging material 5' and 6, respectively, which have been superimposed upon each other and which are either folded together along their longitudinal mid-center, or are folded independently along the center with the web 6 being inserted into web 5 in a substantially parallel relationship.
  • the folding as above mentioned is to create webs of substantially V- shaped form so that one web may suitably be inserted into or superimposed upon the other. In any event, however, each such web is caused to have a fold line which assures a substantially symmetrical alignment between the two V-formations and a simplicity of operation.
  • a liquid tight seal 9 is established, if desired, by conventional heat seal jaws or the like (not shown), all along fold line 7 to bond or otherwise adhesively adhere together the adjacent surfaces on the bottom of the sheetlike walls 5 and 6 in order to press together these wall portions at the base of the V to establish the seal or seam 9 providing fluid tight integrity between the bonded or otherwise secured contact surfaces and along the bottom of the package as aforesaid.
  • the webs 5, 6 of packaging material are then provided with a second and third seal 8 and 10, respectively, which extend essentially at right angle to the first seal 9 with the seals 8 and 10 being suitably spaced lengthwise along the web of packaging material.
  • the angularity may be varied, somewhat, without deviating significantly from the main aspect of the invention and, the term at right angle is to be interpreted and used in this context.
  • seals 8 and 10 are again the same as that of seal 9 to bond together along a relatively narrow seal or seam line the adjacent surfaces of the four walls or webs 5 and 6.
  • a fourth seal 11 is applied at the top of the package, i.e., in a parallel relationship relative to the longitudinally extending seal 9 and vertically spaced therefrom.
  • the seal 11 being again of the type as aforediscussed with respect to seals 8, 9 and 10 and jointly they circumscribe the area of the compartments 2, 3 and 4.
  • the foregoing establishes a completely closed, liquid-tight package with three separate compartments 2, 3 and 4, and with each compartment having liquid-tight integrity relative to the other so that assimilation or a mixture between either powder or liquid materials within the multi-compartments is prevented until the compartments are intentionally pierced for mixing.
  • the sub-dividing or cutting of the webs 5, 6 into individual packages 1, can be accomplished either prior to the application of seals 8, 9 and '10 and before the individual compartments are filled, or after the compartments'have been established by the application of heat seals 8, 9 and 10.
  • a package for reactive multi-component compositions having a multi-layer sandwich-like construction composed of a first heat seal responsive packaging material initially folded lengthwise substantially in V- shape form, a second heat seal responsive material constituting a dividing wall also initially folded lengthwise in substantially V-shape form and disposed in substantially parallel relationship within the opening of the first packaging material;
  • V- like shaped form of the first and the second material each has a folding edge proximate to the bottom of the V, and each said folding edges are in substantially abutting relationship.
