Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bag construction, and particularly to a bag construction especially useful for disposing soiled articles, but also useful for disposing other types of articles such as feminine hygiene products, containers of food products and containers of dangerous substances.
  • Disposable diapers have come into widespread use because they relieve the user of the need to further handle a diaper after it has been soiled. However, the used article must still be handled until it is disposed. This is not always convenient, and therefore there is a tendency merely to flush a used article down the toilet. Flushing used articles down the toilet, however, frequently blocks the toilet, and for that reason is generally prohibited.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a bag construction particularly useful for disposing articles after use, particularly diapers, which bag construction is very convenient for use and can be produced in volume and at low cost.
  • a bag attachable to an article to permit convenient disposal of the article after use said bag comprising a flat bottom section having an adherent outer surface for attachment to the article; a flat top section overlying the flat bottom section; and a tubular main section joined at one end to the flat bottom section; the tubular main section being of a bellows construction, normally in a contracted condition between the flat top section and flat bottom section, but being expandable to an expanded condition to define a compartment for receiving the article after its use; at least one of the flat sections being formed with an opening to be used when introducing the used article into the compartment formed by the tubular main section in its expanded condition.
  • the opposite end of the tubular main section is free and not joined to the flat top section; in addition, the flat top section is formed with the opening to enable pulling out the tubular main section via the opening and to be expanded to its expanded condition before introducing the used article into the compartment.
  • the opening in the flat top section is in the form of weakened lines manually rupturable to define the opening.
  • the free end of the tubular main section carries closure elements to facilitate closing the compartment after receiving the used article.
  • the closure elements are pull cords, but could be merely extensions integrally formed in the free end of the tubular main section.
  • the opposite end of the tubular main section is joined to the flat top section and the flat bottom section is formed with the opening to enable pushing therethrough the used article into the compartment defined by the tubular main section in its expanded condition.
  • the flat top section includes a pressure-sensitive adhesive on its face facing and adherent to the flat bottomed section in the contracted condition of the tubular main section, the flat top section being forcibly separatable from the flat bottom section to expand the tubular main section and to define the compartment for receiving the used article.
  • the flat top section and the flat bottom section are sufficiently large such that, after the used article has been received in the compartment defined by the expanded tubular main section, they can be brought into contact with each other to enclose the bag and to enable the adhesive to retain the bag in compact form with the used article therein.
  • the adherent outer surface of the flat bottom section is preferably covered by a peelable protective layer.
  • a bag including the features briefly described above attached to an article to be disposed of after use.
  • the invention is particularly useful for disposing soiled diapers, but may be used for conveniently disposing many other types of articles after use.
  • such a bag can be conveniently attached to a diaper or other article to be disposed after use, so as to be ready for use at any desired time in order to dispose of the used article in a convenient manner.
  • such a bag can be manufactured in volume and at relatively low cost.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a diaper having a bag constructed in accordance with the present invention attached thereto for convenient use in order to dispose of a diaper after having been soiled
  • Fig. 2 illustrates the operative condition of the bag of Fig. 1 when used for disposing a used article;
  • FIG. 3 schematically illustrates the bag of Figs. 1 and 2 in its normal condition
  • Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the bag of Fig. 3;
  • Fig. 5 is a bottom view of the bag of Fig. 3 illustrating the removal of the protective layer to enable attaching the bag to a diaper;
  • Figs. 6 and 7 are two views illustrating the bag of Figs. 1-5 in its operative condition for use in receiving a soiled diaper;
  • Fig. 8 illustrates a second bag constructed in accordance with the present invention
  • Fig. 9 illustrates the bag of Fig. 8 in its open operative condition for receiving a soiled diaper; and Figs. 10-12 illustrate other applications of the bag of Figs. 1-9.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a diaper, generally designated 2, which may be of any conventional disposable construction.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the diaper as including a crotch portion 3, and two side portions 4, 5, each including an adhesive 6, 7 for applying the diaper to the baby.
  • a bag is attached to a suitable portion of the diaper to permit convenient disposal of the diaper when soiled.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the normal condition of bag 2
  • Fig. 2 illustrates the opened operative position of bag 2 for use, after the diaper has been soiled, to dispose the soiled diaper.
  • Figs. 3-5 more particularly illustrate the construction of bag 2
  • Figs. 6 and 7 illustrate the bag in its operative position for use in receiving the soiled diaper.
  • bag 10 includes a flat bottom section 11, a flat top section 12 overlying flat bottom section 11, and a tubular main section 13 of a bellows construction normally in a contracted condition, as shown in Fig. 3, but expandable to an expanded condition, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7, to define a compartment for receiving the soiled diaper.
  • Flat bottom section 11 includes an adherent out surface, in the form of a pressure-sensitive adhesive coating 14 (Fig. 5) normally covered by a peelable protective layer 15, which is peeled away when attaching the bag to the diaper.
  • one end of the tubular main section 13 is joined to the flat bottom section H 5 while the opposite end of the tubular main section, i.e. facing the flat top section 12, is free, i.e., not attached to section 12.
  • the flat top section 12 includes an opening 16, in the form of weakened lines, more particularly illustrated in Fig. 4, which are rupturable to define an opening through the fiat top section in order to provide access to the free end of the tubular main section 11.
  • Bag 10, as illustrated in Figs. 3-5. may be manufactured and supplied separately as individual packages, and individually used by the user for disposing a soiled diaper in the following manner:
  • protective strip 15 is peeled away from the flat bottom section 11, and the bag is then applied to the diaper, as shown in Fig. 1, by pressing the adhesive coating 14 against the diaper.
  • flat top section 12 is opened via the weakened lines 16 to provide access to the free end of the tubular main section 13 of the bag.
  • the free end of the main tubular section 13 is then pulled out of opening 16, as shown in Fig. 2, and more particularly in Figs. 6 and 7, to define a compartment of suitable size for receiving the soiled diaper.
  • the free end of the tubular main section 13 is provided with closure elements, in the form of pull cords 16 and 17, to facilitate closing the compartment after receiving the soiled diaper.
  • closure elements in the form of pull cords 16 and 17, to facilitate closing the compartment after receiving the soiled diaper.
  • the so-bagged soiled diaper may then be conveniently disposed of in any suitable manner.
  • Figs. 8 and 9 illustrate a bag, generally designated 20, of similar construction as bag 10 of Figs. 1—7, in that it also includes: a flat bottom section 21; a flat top section 22 overlying section 21; a tubular main section 23 of a bellows construction normally in a contracted condition but expandable to an expanded condition to define a compartment for receiving the soiled diaper; an adhesive coating 24 on the outer surface of the flat bottom section 21 for attaching the bag to a diaper; and a protective layer 25 peelable away from the flat bottom section 21 in order to permit the attachment of the bag to a diaper.
  • the flat bottom section 21 is formed with an opening 26 for introducing the soiled diaper into the compartment defined by the expanded tubular main section 23.
  • the end of the tubular main section is attached to the flat bottom section 21 around opening 26.
  • the opposite end of the tubular main section 23, namely that facing the flat top section 22 is attached to the flat top section, as shown by the broken lines in Fig. 9.
  • the surface of bond section 21 facing the top section 22 is coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, as shown at 27 in Fig. 9, such that the top section 22 adheres to it in the contracted condition of the bag, as shown in Fig. 8, and retains the bag in its contracted condition.
  • the top section 22 is slightly wider than the bottom section 21, so that the two opposite ends of the top section project past the top section, as shown at 22a in Fig. 8, to serve as finger— pieces for opening the bag.
  • the bag may be attached to the diaper in the same manner as described above, by peeling away protective strip 25 and pressing the bottom of the bag against the diaper until firmly attached to the diaper by the pressure-sensitive adhesive 14 coating on the outer surface of the flat bottom section 21.
  • the pressure-sensitive adhesive 27 on the bottom section 21 is effective to hold the bag in its collapsed or contracted position illustrated in Fig. 8 until ready for use. As also shown in Figs.
  • the two sections 21 and 22 are sufficiently long, so as to permit them: (1) to securely hold the bag in its contracted position until ready for use; and (2) after the diaper has been introduced into the compartment defined by the tubular main section 23, to be wrapped around the bag and thereby to retain the bag in compact form with the soiled diaper therein.
  • the previously-removed protective strip 25 may be applied to the bottom section 21 to close the opening 26.
  • FIG. 10 illustrates a feminine hygiene product 30 having a bag 32 attached thereto, and constructed in accordance with the invention for conveniently disposing such product after use.
