The present disclosure relates to methods for forming reclosable bags with slider zippers which can be used in high pressure pasteurization. In particular, these methods form reclosable bags with a shroud formed over the slider zipper, with a patch or cap for protecting the slider during high pressure pasteurization. When the user tears the shroud from the bag, the patch or cap remains attached to the shroud but releases from the slider. An alternative embodiment forms an air pocket in the shroud to protect the slider.

The disclosure pertains to methods for inserting a soft cap onto a slider in order to protect the slider from damaging the package film of a reclosable bag during high pressure pasteurization. A first embodiment discloses manual or automated insertion of the soft cap onto the slider, prior to inserting the slider/cap assembly onto a length of zipper. A second embodiment discloses automated insertion of the soft cap onto a slider which is already mounted on a length of reclosable zipper. A third embodiment uses an insert molding process with a first mold cavity to form the slider and a second mold cavity to form the soft cap over the slider. A fourth embodiment uses a dual shot molding process in a single mold cavity to form both the slider and the soft cap thereover.

A bag structure especially adapted to be made from bag body web material, and fusibly incompatible extruded plastic zipper, comprises a pair of zipper strips having reclosable zipper profiles located below upper ends of pull flanges. Fused connecting anchors extend from the zipper strips through holes in the material of the bag body material and thereby permanently attach the zipper strips to the bag body material. Anchorage of the bag body material may be in groove sockets provided by the zipper strips. The zipper strips may be located on the inside or the outside of the bag structure. A pilfer evident seal may be provided along the pull flanges and require destruction of the seal to gain access into the bag through the reclosable zipper. Method of making the bag structure is also disclosed.

A fastener for a reclosable package comprises a flexible zipper and a string for maintaining zipper closure. The fastener may optionally further comprise a slider for pressing the string into a groove on the zipper and/or extracting the string from the groove. In one embodiment, the fastener comprises first and second zipper parts and a string. The first zipper part comprises a rib. The second zipper part comprises a first body, a second body and a narrow strip connecting the first and second bodies. The first and second bodies and the narrow strip define first and second grooves having respective openings on opposing sides of the second zipper part. The first groove is profiled to receive and hold the string, while the second groove is profiled to receive and hold the rib.

Bags especially adapted to be made from fusibly incompatible bag body web material and extruded plastic zippers comprising in each instance a pair of zipper strips having reclosable zipper profiles located below upper ends of pull flanges, and fused connecting anchors extending from the zipper strips through holes in the material of the bag body and thereby permanently attaching the zipper strips to the bag body. The portions of the bag body material having the anchor holes may be received in groove sockets in the zipper strips, where the zipper strips are located at the inside of the bag. The zipper strips may be located on the outside of the bag and sealably pinch material of the bag body material in and between interlocking profiles, with ends of the zipper strips secured to the sides of the bag by fused anchors extending through holes in side seams on the bag body. Method of making the bags is disclosed.

The disclosure relates to a semi-soft cap or patch which is secured by adhesive to a slider on a zipper in a reclosable package. This cap or patch prevents the slider from puncturing the web or film of the bag during high pressure pasteurization. Further, the cap or patch is secured to a tear-away header which is formed as a shroud over the zipper. This allows the user to tear off the header which likewise removes the cap or patch from the slider. The header, with the cap or patch still attached thereto, can thereafter be disposed of as a single piece.
摘要:
A plastic separable fastener strip, and assembly of such strip with a substrate, and a method of attaching such strip to a substrate, comprising the provision of and utilization of fusible ribs on the base surface of the fastener strip to provide a bonding layer for bonding the strip to the substrate. Reducing the ribs into fusible condition without heat distortion of the remainder of the fastener strip and without heat distortion or damage of the substrate, provides a bonding layer when the fused ribs of the fastener strip are pressed together with the substrate. A simple apparatus and method are provided for effecting the bonding by fusion of the fusion ribs.
摘要:
Material and method for making three reclosable bag sections from separable fastener equipped web, comprising folding opposite free portions of the web upon themselves and folding an intervening portion of the web upon itself and thereby providing three bag sections in a generally Y orientation. Separably interlockable fastener profiles adjacent to juncture of the three sections being arranged to provide a respective bag top separable profile fastener assembly along each of the bag sections. The bag sections are separable from one another at the juncture. Pull flanges may be provided along the separable fastener assembly of each of the sections.
摘要:
The end stop is formed on ends of a zipper for a reclosable package or bag by ultrasonically welding the ends of the zipper profiles together so as to form a raised portion. This prevents the slider from being pulled off of the ends of the zipper. Additionally, in the ultrasonic welding step, an indentation is formed into which glue is added thereby forming a lateral protrusion on the side of a zipper profile. This increases the strength of the end stop and increases the slider pull-off force which can be resisted.
