摘要: A valve assembly mounted in a resealable/reclosable storage bag. The valve assembly includes a base and a valve element. The valve element includes a stem with a convex cap attached at one end and a valve gate attached at the opposite end. The stem extends into a hole in the base. The resilient quality of the cap, acting against the top of the base, holds the gate against the bottom of the base, thereby forming a seal between the gate and the base that is strong enough to preserve the vacuum inside the bag. A cavity extends into the stem from the cap end. A hole in the stem runs from the cavity to outside the stem. When the stem is pressed down, a vacuum source may draw air between the gate and the base, through the hole in the stem, into the cavity, and subsequently outside the bag.

摘要: A one-way valve allows air to be drawn from a collapsible, flexible, air-tight bag using a vacuum source. When the vacuum source is removed, the one-way valve prevents air from re-entering the bag. A filter is placed on the valve body to prevent small particles from the bag from clogging the valve or the vacuum source.

摘要: Sliders for closing the zipper of an evacuable storage bag. The slider is generally U-shaped and comprises a pair of mutually opposing sidewalls, a bridge connecting the sidewalls, and a generally U-shaped stiffening rib projecting outward from the sidewalls and bridge. In accordance with various aspects of the invention: (1) portions of the sidewalls on both sides of the stiffening rib have undulating external surfaces that facilitate manufacture by injection molding; (2) both sides of the stiffening rib are provided with respective curved depressions that are generally symmetrical relative to a central plane of the slide and that facilitate grasping by the storage bag user; and (3) retaining hooks at the distal ends of the sidewalls have angled surfaces that form an included angle of 30 to 45 degrees at an entry point into the gap between the sidewalls to facilitate automated slider insertion onto a zipper.

摘要: A reusable, evacuable enclosure comprising a bag with an opening in which to place compressible articles, such as clothing or linen, and a one-way valve in a surface of the bag. Compressible articles may be placed in the bag and sealed from the surrounding environment by placing a seal across the opening. The excess air in the bag may then be removed by placing a cylindrical attachment of a household vacuum cleaner over the one-way valve. Once the excess air is extracted, a cap is placed over the valve to ensure a permanent seal. Removal of excess air reduces the size of the compressible article and inhibits the growth of insects and bacteria, which may damage the contents of the bag. Moreover, the enclosure is impervious to moisture, and so inhibits the growth of mildew.
