A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described more in detail hereinafter in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
A pouch container of the present invention comprises a pouch body 100 and a spout 200 installed on a main exhaust opening of the pouch body 100.
The pouch body 100 is provided with an unsealed lower end 101 and other three sides are sealed to define a sealing portion 102, thereby forming a space for receiving contents.
The upper sealing portion 102 is provided with a spout insertion space 105 for receiving the spout 200. The spout insertion space 105 is opened to expose the spout 200 by removing a cutting cover 103 divided by a cutting line 104.
The spout insertion space 105 is provided with a spout stopper 106 for preventing the spout 200 from excessively inserted in the spout insertion space 105. The spout stopper 106 is preferably formed under an adjacent portion of the cutting line 104. A spout seal portion 111 is formed under the spout stopper 105 to seal an attaching portion 206 of the spout 200.
To easily cut the cutting cover 103 of the pouch body 100, the cutting cover 103 is provided with pulling holes 107 in which user's finger can be inserted.
The spout 200 is preferably formed in a one-piece type having an integral cap and spouting portion. That is, the spout 200 includes an attaching portion 201 and a spouting portion 202 extending upward from the attaching portion 201 and a cap 203 extending from the spouting portion 202. A cutting portion 204 is formed between the spouting portion 202 and the cap 203. The spout 200 is provided with a spouting hole 205.
A method for making the above-described pouch container with the spout will be described hereinafter. As shown in FIG. 1, the spouting sealing portion has a with A that is . greater than a width of the attaching portion 201 of the spout 200.
As shown in FIG. 2, a guide 300 is inserted in the spouting hole 205 of the spout 200 to insert the spout 200 into the spouting insertion space 105 with the unsealed portion 101 opened. In the course of the above, when the attaching portion 206 of the spout 200 contacts the spout stopper 206, the spout 200 is no more inserted. This is shown by a broken line in FIG. 2.
By pressing a portion of the pouch 100 which corresponds to the attaching portion 201 using a seal bar, the attaching portion 201 and the spout seal portion 111 are integrally attached to each other, thereby defining a seal portion 108
After attaching the spout 200 on the pouch body 100, the guide 300 can be selectively removed or remained in the pouch body 100. In a state shown in FIG. 3, the unsealed portion 101 is opened and content is filled in the pouch body 100. Then, the unsealed portion 101 is sealed. This state is shown in FIG. 4.
To use the content in the pouch container, the cutting cover 103 is removed by pulling with the finger inserted in the pulling hole 107. When pulling the cutting cover 103, the cutting line 104 is broken as shown in FIG. 5.
From the state shown in FIG. 6, the cap 203 is twisted to break the cutting portion 204, thereby being removed from the spout 200 to open the spouting portion 202 as shown in FIG. 7. When the content is beverage, it is preferable than a spouting guide is formed extending from the attaching portion 201.
To reserve the remained content, the removed cap 203 can be resealed on the spouting portion as shown in FIG. 9. FIGS. 10 through 12 show the spout.
The spout 200 is designed such that it can be easily inserted in the spout insertion space 105. That is, the attaching portion is formed in a streamline shape.
As described above, a method for manufacturing the pouch container comprises steps of forming a spout insertion space 105, a content receiving space 112, a spout stopper 106 and a spout seal portion 111 by sealing three sides of the pouch body except for one side that is an unsealed portion 101 ; defining a cutting cover 103 by forming a cutting line 104 along an upper end of the spout seal portion 111 ; inserting the spout 200 in the spout seal portion 111 through the unsealed portion 101 until the spout is hooked on the spout stopper 106; sealing an attaching portion 201 of the spout on the spout seal portion 111; and filling content in the pouch body and sealing the unsealed portion 101. FIGS. 13 through 15 shows a pouch container according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In this embodiment, a cutting line 104 is formed by being sealed on an attaching portion of a spout 200 to enhance the seal of the pouch 100.
That is, as shown in FIG. 13, after locating the cutting line 104 on the attaching portion 201 of the spout 200, the cutting line 104 and the attaching portion 201 are attached to each other. At this point, the upper end of the attaching portion 201 of the spout 200 is extended over the cutting line 104 as shown in FIG. 14.
That is, as shown in FIG. 14, a gap S is defined between the upper end of the attaching portion 201 and the cutting line 104 to enhance seal effect of the pouch body 100.
When pulling the cutting cover 103, the cutting cover 103 is removed from the pouch body 100 while the cutting line 104 is broken as shown in FIG. 5.
That is, the cutting cover 103 is removed while receiving resistance by the attachment of the gap SI.
That is, to one-touch open the spout 200, it is preferable that the cutting portion 204 of the spout is designed as possible as thin. In this case, the cutting portion 204 may be inadvertently broken before the cutting cover 103 is removed. Therefore, by forming the cutting line on the attaching portion of the spout, the cutting cover 103 does not affect the spout 200 while being removed.
The gap S between the upper end of the attaching portion 201 of the spout 200 and the cutting line 104 is preferably less than 5 mm.
FIGS. 16 through 19 show a variety of modified examples of the cutting cover 103. However, a structure of the cutting cover 103 are not limited to these but can be varied.
As another embodiment of the present invention, the cutting cover 103 is formed such that both side corners are cut away. The reference numeral 13 indicates cutting notches enhancing the cutting convenience. In another embodiment of FIG. 21, the receiving space 112 for receiving the content is formed in a rectangular shape by varying the seal portion 102.
FIG. 22 shows another embodiment in which the spout 100 is inserted in the pouch body 100 an upper end of the pouch body 100. That is, the spout 200 is inserted in the spout insertion portion 109 and the attaching portion201 of the spout 200 is attached on the pouch body. At this point, the spout stopper 106' is formed on a lower end of the spout seal portion 111. The content is filed in through the upper end of the pouch bodylOO after which the spout is located on a predetermined location of the pouch body. Then, the spout and the pouch body are sealed together.
After the above, the upper end of the pouch body 100 is sealed to store hygienically the spout.
The spout guide 207 is selectively formed according to the type of content.
FIGS. 24 and 25 show another embodiment of the spout 200 of the present invention. As shown in the drawings, the cap 203 of the spout 200 can be formed having a cutting portion having in a variety of shapes such as a star, a heart and the like. When the pouch body contains cream, the shape of the cream spouted through the spout can has the corresponding shape. In addition, a check valve 208 can be further assembled in the spouting hole 205 of the spout 200. The check valve 208 has at least one cutting line 209 formed on an elastic member 210.
In use, when spouting the content by sucking the spout or pressing the pouch body , the cutting line 209 is opened to spout the content. INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
As described above, since a cutting cover encloses the spout, it is possible to realize the tamper-proof function.
Furthermore, according to the present invention, the sealing and attachment of the spout can be easily realized by a simple automatic machine.
