A pouch or pocket may act as a container and may be used to securely hold objects (e.g., cell phone, keys, wallet, etc.) during athletic activity (e.g., running). The pouch may be a standalone item or integrally formed as part of other items. The pouch may hold the object to be stored in place within the pouch or pocket. The pouch may provide some cushioning or impact force attenuation to protect the object being held within the pouch or pocket. Additionally, the pouch may be attached to a garment, such as running clothes. The pouch includes an outer envelope sealable by a closure and a one-way valve with foam layers located inside the pouch. After the object is placed in the pouch, the closure is closed, and the air within the pouch is expelled via the one-way valve by compressing the foam layers from the outside.

A zipper assembly for a reclosable enclosure includes a first profile having a first elongated supporting element and first protruding intermeshing elements. The zipper assembly also may include a second profile having a second elongated supporting element and one or more second intermeshing elements protruding from the second elongated supporting element. The one or more first intermeshing elements may releasably interlock with the one or more second intermeshing elements to close the enclosure. Each of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may include a thicker portion and a thinner portion. The thicker portions of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may be coupled with one or more panels of the enclosure. The thicker portions of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may be disposed on a consumer side of the enclosure.

The present invention relates to an opening device on a packaging container for liquid or semi-liquid food. The packaging container has a fold line and an opening line intersecting in an intersection point, thereby dividing the opening line into a first opening line portion and a second opening line portion. The opening device comprises a first opening device portion and a second opening device portion, wherein the first opening device portion has an opening edge that is at least partly aligned along the first opening line portion and arranged on a first side of the opening line. The second opening device portion has an opening edge that is at least partly aligned along the second opening line portion and arranged on a second side of the opening line. The invention also comprises a packaging container with an opening device and a method of manufacturing the packaging container.

A system and process for making a container or pouch that separates the cutting and sealing steps into two distinct steps with a separate step of rotating the container or pouch template 90 degrees relative to a direction of travel between the cutting and sealing steps.

The present invention relates to improvements for shopping and merchandise bags with integral handles. Disclosed is a bag with integral handles and closure elements located below the integral handles. The disclosed bag provides a cost effective solution for a reclosable bag with integral handles. Further disclosed is a process for manufacturing a reclosable bag with integral handles.

The present invention relates to an opening and closure device on a packaging container for liquid or semi-liquid food. The packaging container has a fold line and an opening line intersecting in an intersection point, thereby dividing the opening line into a first opening line portion and a second opening line portion. The opening and closure device comprises an opening device adapted for facilitating rupture of the packaging material along the opening line, and a closure device adapted for re-closing the packaging container after opening along the opening line. The invention also comprises a packaging container with an opening and closure device and a method of manufacturing the packaging container.

A packaging bag is formed in a bag shape by overlapping of a laminated film and a laminated film facing each other, and unsealed by cutting of a predetermined section. The packaging bag includes a zipper for opening and closing an opening, the zipper being provided along edges of the opening formed by the unsealing, a linear cut section that is formed in a functional layer of the laminated film so as to be parallel to the zipper, and becomes the edge of the opening by the unsealing of the packaging bag, and a linear cut section that is formed at a different level from the cut section in a functional layer of the laminated film so as to be parallel to the zipper, and becomes the edge of the opening by the unsealing of the packaging bag.

A container body includes a bag body and a resealable lock. The bag body includes first and second layers overlapped with each other, wherein the bag body further has a plurality of sealing portions provided thereat to form first and second sealing pockets discretely provided between the first and second layers, wherein three of the sealing portions are provided at three sealing edges of the first sealing pocket and three of the sealing portions are provided at three sealing edges of the second sealing pocket, such that each of the first sealing pocket and the second sealing pocket has an unsealed edge to serving as an elongated opening. The resealable lock includes a plurality of zip lockers provided at the elongated openings of the first and second sealing pockets, wherein each of the first and second sealing pockets is reclosably sealed by the resealable lock.

A tape includes, in a cross-sectional shape: a first and a second portion which are configured to be at least partially in opposition. The first portion includes: thick portions provided in corresponding one of a first and a third region, out of the first, a second, and the third region in a width direction of the tape; a first and a second thin portion provided at respective both end portions, in the width direction, of the second region positioned between the first and the third region; and at least one intermediate portion provided between the first and the second thin portion. The second portion includes: thick portions provided in corresponding one of the first and the third region and extending beyond end portions, in the width direction, of the second region; and at least one third thin portion provided in the second region and opposed to the intermediate portion.

A zipper assembly for a reclosable enclosure includes a first profile having a first elongated supporting element and first protruding intermeshing elements. The zipper assembly also may include a second profile having a second elongated supporting element and one or more second intermeshing elements protruding from the second elongated supporting element. The one or more first intermeshing elements may releasably interlock with the one or more second intermeshing elements to close the enclosure. Each of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may include a thicker portion and a thinner portion. The thicker portions of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may be coupled with one or more panels of the enclosure. The thicker portions of the first elongated supporting element and the second elongated supporting element may be disposed on a consumer side of the enclosure.
