The gas injection portion has a diameter of from 3 to 50 mm and is formed such that a repelling force is from 4 to 30 N at 23° C. and 1 atm when an entire gas injection portion is nipped from both sides of the first and second side-surface films and squeezed until a nipped gas injection portion has a width equal to a half of the diameter of the gas injection portion. | 03-24-2016 |
20160083165 | FLEXIBLE PACKAGE - A flexible package including a package body including a first side-surface film and a second side-surface film sealed in a peripheral portion. The package body has sealed portions formed in side edge portions such that a non-sealed potion is formed in at least one of the sealed portions. The non-sealed portion has a gas injection portion containing a gas which has a specific heat at constant volume of 0.67 kJ/kg·deg or higher at 0° C. and 1 atm. The gas injection portion has a diameter of from 3 to 50 mm and is formed such that a repelling force is from 4 to 30 N at 23° C. and 1 atm when an entire gas injection portion is nipped from both sides of the first and second side-surface films and squeezed until a nipped gas injection portion has a width equal to a half of the diameter of the gas injection portion. | 03-24-2016 |
20160090221 | Improved Container With Opening - A container including: a body having a cavity for storing dispensable contents; a rim of the body defining an opening of the cavity; a flange extending outwardly away from the rim of the body; a cover affixed to the flange to seal the dispensable contents within the cavity; and a fracture portion located on the body, the fracture portion having a break path, whereby the container fractures along the break path upon the application of force exceeding a predetermined level on either side of the fracture portion, wherein the break path along which the container fractures extends beyond a single plane such that the break path includes a main portion having a fracture point in one plane and end portions each having a terminus in another plane. | 03-31-2016 |
20160096657 | PLASTIC STORAGE BAG WITH SPOUT - A plastic food storage bag having a spout at a top corner of the bag for facilitating pouring out the contents of the bag. The bag can be sealed with the spout in a closed position, just inside the press-seal or zipper-seal of the bag. The spout is rotatable from the closed position into an open position in which it extends out of the bag, for guiding the contents of the bag while being poured out the bag. The spout may be formed of a wedge-shaped plastic piece folded symmetrically along a central fold line, with front and back outside surfaces respectively secured to front and back major surfaces of the bag. | 04-07-2016 |
20160122104 | SPOUT ASSEMBLY HAVING A BARRIER FILM FOR A FLEXIBLE BAG AND A FLEXIBLE BAG HAVING A SPOUT ASSEMBLY HAVING A BARRIER FILM - A spout assembly including a spout, a base film and a coupling member. The spout has a base flange and an upstand. The base flange has a top surface, a lower surface and an outer surface. The upstand extends from the base flange toward a distal end spaced therefrom. The upstand defines a passageway with a lower opening and an upper opening. The base film has a top surface and a bottom surface. At least a portion of the top surface of the base film overlies at least a portion of the lower surface of the base flange. The coupling member couples the base film to the spout. In turn, the base film is maintained in the overlying orientation. | 05-05-2016 |
20160137377 | SCORED PACKAGE - A scored package is described. The first panel of the package comprises a multilayer film with an exterior layer having a nonlinear first score Sine and an interior layer having a linear second score line. The first score line and the second score fine are positioned non-parallel in a plane of the package such that the first score line intersects the second score line to form an opening in the package at the second score line when the exterior layer and the interior layer are separated. Separation of the exterior layer and the interior layer also forms an adhesive-free pour spout in the separated exterior layer. Various embodiments of various package configurations, score line configurations, multilayer film structures and methods of manufacturing are also described. | 05-19-2016 |
20160159520 | DEVICES FOR IMPROVED EVACUATION OF INGREDIENT CONTAINERS - The ingredient bag assembly of the present disclosure includes a bin, an ingredient bag, and a nozzle to extract a liquid or semi-solid ingredient from inside the bag. The bins of the present disclosure have a living spring, tilted bottom surface, or other insert that encourages the evacuation of the ingredient through the nozzle. The nozzles of the present disclosure can have shorter projections into the bin, to allow for additional ingredient to be extracted. The nozzles can also have one or more drain holes tooled therein, to further assist with evacuation. | 06-09-2016 |
