Definitions
- the invention relates to pouches formed of flexible materials. More specifically, the present invention relates to a gusseted pouch adapted to resist cracking due to flexing.
- a pouch is defined by a first and second panel of a flexible laminate.
- the panels each have an outside face, an inside face and a barrier layer disposed between the outside and inside faces.
- the edge portions of the inside faces of the two panels are bonded to one another to form the pouch reservoir.
- the pouch is further defined by first and second gusset portions each having an inside face, an outside face and a barrier layer disposed between the inside and outside faces.
- a portion of the inside face of the first panel is bonded to a portion of the inside face of the first gusset.
- a portion of the inside face of the second panel is bonded to a portion of the inside face of the second gusset.
- the outside faces of the gusset portions are also bonded together to complete the gusset panel.
- Fig. 1 is a side sectional view of a pouch according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the pouch of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 4 is a cross sectional view of a gusset panel of the pouch of Fig. 1.
- gusseted pouch which is generally referred to by the numeral 10.
- the pouch 10 is generally made from a laminate material, as will be described in further detail below.
- Exemplary second layer and barrier combinations may be aluminum oxide coated polyester, silicone oxide coated polyester, metallized polyester, metallized oriented polypropylene or polyvinyl-dichloride coated polyester or some other suitable combination.
- a third layer 108 defines the outer face 24, 34 of the respective first and second panels 20, 30. The third layer may be printable as desired.
- the panels 20, 30, 40 and 50 are preferably heat sealed together, although other forms of attachment may be utilized.
- a top edge portion 42a of the outer face 42 of the first gusset panel 40 is sealed to a top edge portion 52a of the outer face 52 of the second gusset panel 50.
- a gusset seal 14 is formed between the gusset panels 40, 50.
- the outer faces 42, 52 of the gusset panels 40, 50 contact each other. If the top portions 42a, 52a are sealed to each other prior to insertion of the gusset panels 40, 50 into the pouch 10, a flat seal bar may be used. Alternatively, the seal may be made ultrasonically or using another convenient method.
- the zipper 70 provides a supplemental and reclosable seal between the first and second gusset panels 40, 50.
- the zipper portions 72, 74 are engaged, thereby sealing the pouch.
- the present invention provides a pouch that is easily flattenable.
- the panels of the pouch are preferably arranged to minimize the need for, or chance of, folding or creasing, thereby reducing the opportunity for cracking or the development of holes in the barrier layer of the laminate material.
