A zipper closure for use in a package includes first and second closure strips. Each of the first and second closure strips includes at least one closure profile and a flange. The flange of the first closure strip includes outer and inner flange portions. The outer flange portion of the first closure strip encompasses and is integrally connected to the inner flange portion of the first closure strip at a bending point. The inner flange portion of the first closure strip includes the at least one closure profile. The inner flange portion of the first closure strip has a length less than the length of the outer flange portion of the first closure strip. The closure profile of the first closure strip is located between an open end of the inner flange portion and the bending point.

The present application provides a zipper, a child resistant zipper bag and an opening method thereof. A zipper includes a first wing and a second wing, at least one first strip is provided on an inner side of the first wing, at least one second strip is provided on an inner side of the second wing, the number of the second strip corresponds to that of the first strip, and the first strip is interlocked with the second strip, and a protrusion is provided on an outer side of the first wing and/or an outer side of the second wing.

The present application relates to a child resistant bag and an opening method thereof. The child resistant bag includes a bag body, a first wing and a second wing that are arranged at two sides of an inlet of the bag body, wherein the first wing includes a first strip, and an upper wing and a lower wing a connected to two sides of the first strip, the second wing includes a second strip and a lower wing b connected to a lower side of the second strip, a gap is provided between one side of the upper wing and the inner wall of the bag body to form a finger extension area, and a sealing structure is provided between the upper wing and the bag body and within the finger extension area.

A recloseable zipper pouch includes a recloseable zipper with interlocking profiles. At least one of the profiles has a grasping flange with a free end positionable both above and below the interlocking profile, and an attachment flange below the interlocking profile and attached to the wall of the pouch at an anchored portion on the attachment flange. The grasping flange is unattached to the first wall between opposite sidewall edges of the pouch. The complementary interlocking profile is attached to the opposite pouch wall. Some pouches can also include an opening in a side wall of the pouch to provide access to a portion of the grasping flange.

The invention includes a child resistant package having a first panel and at least two second panels joined to the first panel. The first and second panels are in different planes, in an embodiment. The package includes a peelable flap portion covering an access point into the package, wherein the peelable flap portion has at least one tab continuous therewith. The at least one tab is disposed on one of the second panels and the access point is disposed in the first panel. In an embodiment, at least one decoy tab is also disposed on one of the second panels.

A recloseable zipper pouch includes a recloseable zipper with interlocking profiles. At least one of the profiles has a grasping flange with a free end positionable both above and below the interlocking profile, and an attachment flange below the interlocking profile and attached to the wall of the pouch at an anchored portion on the attachment flange. The grasping flange is unattached to the first wall between opposite sidewall edges of the pouch. The complementary interlocking profile is attached to the opposite pouch wall. Some pouches can also include an opening in a side wall of the pouch to provide access to a portion of the grasping flange.

A container and methods of manufacturing and operating the same are provided where the container has a cap that is removable yet childproof. The cap is positioned in a tubular body, and the cap has a generally smooth or continuous upper surface to reduce or eliminate surfaces or edges for a child to grasp. To operate the cap, a disc in the center of the cap is pushed below a lip, and a user grasps the lip to pull the cap from the tubular body. The force needed to press the disc away from the lip is low enough for an adult but too high for a child. Moreover, the cap forms an interference fit with the tubular body with enough friction force to prevent the cap from falling out of the tubular body but is low enough that the cap can be pulled from the tubular body.

A zipper closure for use in a package includes first and second closure strips. Each of the first and second closure strips includes at least one closure profile and a flange. The flange of the first closure strip includes outer and inner flange portions. The outer flange portion of the first closure strip encompasses and is integrally connected to the inner flange portion of the first closure strip at a bending point. The inner flange portion of the first closure strip includes the at least one closure profile. The inner flange portion of the first closure strip has a length less than the length of the outer flange portion of the first closure strip. The closure profile of the first closure strip is located between an open end of the inner flange portion and the bending point.

A hinged zipper assembly includes first and second zipper members each having a facing side, an opposite side, an upper edge, and an opposite lower edge. Each of the zipper members has a profile protrusion that extends from the facing sides and are located between the upper and lower edges. The profile protrusions mesh with each other to interlock with each other. A living hinge is formed in the first zipper member and/or the second zipper member between the lower edge and the profile protrusion. The zipper members are formed with flanges that extend from the lower edges. The flanges are configured to be affixed to panels of an enclosure that is closed by meshing of the profile protrusions of the first and second zipper members with each other.

A package is provided to make it more resistant to access by individuals, such as small children, while remaining simple enough for an adult to open. A feature, such as a top gusset or a breachable flange or flap, can be provided to promote the child resistance attributes of the package.
