Household vacuum sealer supplied AC power and heated
A household vacuum sealer contains: a base, a lid, and a hot-melt sealing element. The base includes a receiving chamber for accommodating a control circuit and a vacuum pump. The base also includes a vacuuming chamber and an accommodation chamber. The hot-melt sealing element includes a holder, a mica slice, a laminated heating layer, the insulated composite layer, and a protective cap. The insulated composite layer includes multiple insulated tape layers. The laminated heating layer includes a high-temperature resistance tapes made of polyimide, a metal resistance tape, two electrical connection films, and two alternating current (AC) electrodes. The mica slice is parallelly fixed on a top of the holder. The laminated heating layer includes the two electrical connections. Furthermore, the protective cap is covered on the insulated composite layer and includes a hollowly elongated zone.
Method for manufacturing a pouch for holding therein a liquid
The invention provides a method of manufacturing a pouch for holding therein a liquid, comprising providing a front and back layer, locally bonding them together to create an inner space, forming a pour channel, by locally bonding the layers together to form bonds defining boundaries of the pour channel, wherein the forming of the pour channel is carried out by providing a heating device having a plurality of heating elements arranged in a grid-like manner, forming a heating surface, each of the heating elements being individually operable, operating the heating device such that heating elements which are required for creating the boundaries are operated and thereby heated, and bringing the heating surface into contact with the front layer or back layer, so as to locally bond together the front layer and the back layer so as to form the bonds defining the boundaries of the pour channel.
