This inventive concept relates to a hollow body for being attached to a container for a liquid food product, the hollow body comprising a first piece and a second piece. At least a portion of a periphery of the first piece is attached to at least a portion of a periphery of the second piece in order to form the hollow body. Further, it is presented related methods for producing a package comprising a container and a hollow body.

A flexible, stackable container for storing a quantity of a product may include a sealed package formed from a single sheet of film and retaining the quantity of the product disposed therein, and a lid fitment attached to a first side of the package. The first side of the package may have an outer first surface of the film and outwardly extending first corner seals formed in the film at the edges of the first side and surrounding the first side of the package. The package may also have a second side disposed opposite the first side and outwardly extending second corner seals formed in the film at the edges of the second side and surrounding the second side of the package.

The disclosure provides co-extruded, multi-layer films, including metallized barrier films and non-barrier films, and articles of manufacture that include the films, such as flexible bags and containers for flowable materials. The films and articles that include the films have good heat retention, and barrier properties, as well as good flex-crak resistance and toughness. The films and articles that include the films have a metallized barrier core layer of ethylene-vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer wherein both the metal and EVOH are in amounts that achieve the heat retention, flex-crack resistance, toughness, and barrier properties, while allowing for the recycling of the films and articles of manufacture.

Methods and systems for processing input from an image-capture device for gesture-recognition. The method further includes computationally interpreting user gestures in accordance with a first mode of operation; analyzing the path of movement of an object to determine an intent of a user to change modes of operation; and, upon determining an intent of the user to change modes of operation, subsequently interpreting user gestures in accordance with the second mode of operation.

A bag having a front panel and a back panel coupled together through a plurality of seals, defining a cavity structurally configured to retain a flowable material. The panels are formed from a film that has a first film portion and a second film portion laminated together at an interface. The first film portion has an inner surface and an outer surface and includes an oriented polyethylene. The second film portion is a coextrusion having an inner surface and an outer surface. The extrusion has a core, with a first overlying layer on one side of the core and a second overlying layer on a second side of the core opposite the one side. The core includes EVOH. The first overlying layer and the second overlying layer include polyethylene.

A sheet member container configured to include one or more sheet members including a bag-body forming sheet member including an outer film layer and an inner film layer that are stacked on each other. The sheet member container includes a container main body, an extending piece extending from the container main body, a containing portion that is formed continuously over an interior of the container main body and an interior of the extending piece, the containing portion storing contents, a filling port that communicates between a portion of the interior of the container main body in the containing portion and an external space of the sheet member container, and a bag body that is made out of the bag-body forming sheet member, the bag body surrounding the containing portion.

The present application relates to a system for dispensing fluid. The system includes a flexible container including a spout that is in fluid communication with an interior region of the container. The system includes a cap configured to be mounted to the spout. The cap includes an opening that leads to a membrane and a first retention mechanism located in the opening. The system includes a piercing tube having a first end configured to puncture the membrane and a second end configured to be connected to a dispensing tube. The piercing tube includes a seal bead and a second retention mechanism. The piercing tube is inserted into the opening of the cap such that the first end punctures the membrane, the first and second retention mechanisms engage each other to retain the piercing tube in the cap, and the seal bead sealingly engages the cap.

A spout assembly for a flexible bag having a base flange, a body and a dual lead thread. The base flange has a top surface and a bottom surface. At least one of the top surface and the bottom surface are configured for coupling to a flexible bag. The body extends from the base flange and includes a proximal end corresponding to the base flange and a distal end spaced apart therefrom, and, an inner surface and an outer surface. The dual lead thread extends along the outer surface of the body between the proximal end and the distal end. The dual lead thread has a first threadform and a second threadform. The first threadform has a first threadform length. The second threadform has a second threadform length. The length of the first threadform is different than that of the second threadform.

The present disclosure relates to an aseptic bag quick connection device (100) wherein a mouth sealing cover (2) or mouth connection piece (3) is mounted at a mouth (1) of an aseptic bag, said aseptic bag mouth (1) has arc-shaped grooves (11) on the upper surface (12), the lower surface (13) of the mouth (1) is sealed with laminate compound film (14), said mouth sealing cover (2) has arc-shaped heaves (21) on the two sides, and said arc-shaped heaves (21) are fastened with the arc-shaped grooves (11) on the upper surface of the bag mouth for sealing; said mouth connection piece (3) is a hollow tube piece and comprises a four liquid discharge holes (38) at the lower middle position of the connection piece (3), and an oblique edge (40) at the bottom of the connection piece (3), the upper and middle part of the connection piece has a rotating arm (34), the latter having a slot (35) in each end of said rotating arm (34), the dimension of the slot (35) being consistent with the dimension of the outer edge of the bag mouth (1) adjacent to the arc-shaped groove (11).
