Abstract:
Reclosable zippers for reclosable packages are disclosed. The zippers include male and female profiles. The female profiles are periodically inwardly and/or upwardly deformed in order to generate tactile and audible feedback when the zippers are opened or closed by the user. The deformation of the female profiles typically maintains the strength of the zipper.
Abstract:
The apparatus includes an extrusion die and further includes a main or primary extruder for the supply of material, such as low density polyethylene, to form the tubing for the manufacture of reclosable packages, bags or pouches. The apparatus further includes at least one secondary extruder, or co-extruder, for the extruding of each reclosable profile onto the tubing. The speed of the co-extruders is controlled so as to control the extrusion of the reclosable profiles.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a pump-to-bottle bag which allows breast feeding mothers to transfer milk from a breast pump directly into the bag. The apparatus includes a cylindrical support which engages a pump receiving ring within its mouth so as to engage the free edges of the bag between the cylindrical support and the pump receiving ring. The pump receiving ring receives the breast pump so that the milk can be pumped directly into the bag.
Abstract:
A child-resistant tamper-resistant bag is provided, of the type which may be used for prescription medicine and other products. The bag includes front and rear walls with a product-side-only opening zipper which defines a product compartment within the bag. The mouth of the bag includes a one-time close-only zipper thereby allowing a pharmacist or other person to easily and securely fill the bag with product and securely close the bag. A line of perforations or other line of weakness may be provided between the two zippers, in order to provide consumer access to the product-side-only opening zipper. The consumer then grasps the walls of the bag on the product side of the product-side-only opening zipper and pulls the walls away from each other thereby opening the product-side-only opening zipper and providing access to the product compartment.
Abstract:
The disclosure regards a storage bag for breast milk or other liquids or materials. The storage bag includes first and second closures, wherein a first line of perforations is U-shaped and extends through the first closure, thereby allowing an output of a breast pump or other device to be inserted through the area where material defined by the first line of perforations is removed. The first closure can further be used to engage the output of the breast pump or other device. A second closure is formed further within the storage bag and defines a storage volume. A second line of perforations is provided above the second closure. After the storage volume is filled, the second closure can be closed and the material above the second line of perforations can be removed.
