A storage bag includes a bag body and a first operating component. The bag body includes a top portion and a bottom portion opposite to the top portion. An opening is formed on the top portion. The first operating component is connected to an inner side of the bottom portion. The first operating component is pulled through the opening for flipping the bag body inside out. The present invention allows a user to flip the bag body inside out by pulling the first operating component through the opening, which makes it easy to clean the interior of the bag body thoroughly.

A spout for use with a flexible bag and a flexible bag having a spout. The spout includes a threadform that extends about the outer surface. The threadform includes opposing threadforms that are of different configurations. Additionally, the insert member includes a poppet and a spring member to maintain the poppet in a configuration that precludes the passage of fluid therethrough.

A resealable bag having an integrated manual pump is provided. The resealable bag includes: a front wall and a back wall together defining a cavity, a sealable closure configured to seal an opening to the cavity, and a manual pump positioned within an aperture in the front wall, wherein the manual pump includes a frame around a perimeter of the aperture, a pump ball positioned within the frame, and an ingress valve and an egress valve in fluid communication with an interior of the pump ball. Air is removed from the bag by depressing the pump ball, which forces air through the egress valve from the interior of the pump ball to an exterior of the bag. The pump ball refills with air between depressions due to air from the bag cavity entering the pump ball through the ingress valve disposed on a cavity-facing surface of the pump ball.

A flexible package having a fill opening or feature can be included in one or more of the package panels, with an internal fill patch provided proximate or about the fill opening. The patch can be initially sealed at one or more edge or portions to the internal surface of the respective package panel or panels, with a generally free edge or portion remaining unsealed until the package is filled with material contents.

An inflatable structure may be formed from a single piece of flexible film. The inflatable structure may include quilting seals which divide the inflatable chamber. The inflatable structure may include a one-way valve including an internal valve opening, a channel, and an external valve opening. A locator aperture positioned in the channel may be surrounded by a valve position-retention seal. A corresponding inflation device fills the inflatable structure with air and may do so without requiring heat sealing or insertion into the one-way valve. The inflation device may include a mechanical registration device configured to engage the locator aperture and position the one-way valve at a desired position with respect to an outlet of a source of pressurized air. The inflation device may detect when the inflatable structure is filled with a desired amount of air and automatically shut off the source of pressurized air.

A multifunctional valve features an injection function, a vacuuming function, a devacuuming function with fast and slow mode, and a pressure regulating function. The valve can be implemented on any sealingly closed container having a removable lid or a bag having a resealable zipper or any other similar sealable feature. The valve also features a tethered plug with a latch system to secure it in place to additionally provide sealing. The valve is incorporated into a container with a removable lid for microwave pressure cooking. The same valve is incorporated into a plug to close an opening on a barrel.

The present invention is a method and an apparatus for packaging lyophilized implants and other medical devices. In accordance with the invention, a lyophilized implant may be packaged for delivery to the surgical site in a sealed, flexible/expandable, sterile inner pouch. The inner pouch may be further packaged within an outer, sterile package. The inner pouch contains a resealable port through which rehydration liquid may be introduced into the inner pouch without opening the inner pouch. The inner pouch may be made of a flexible, substantially non-stretchable material so that the pouch can expand only to a predetermined maximum size to accept a predetermined volume of rehydration liquid. After rehydration, any excess rehydration liquid within the pouch may be removed via the same port. Next, the pouch is opened via a second opening to expose the implant for removal from the package.

The present invention relates to a paper sack for bulk material such as cement, gypsum, granulate, animal feed or similar, having a base, preferably a cross bottom or block bottom, and having an upper part which is disposed opposite the base and in which a valve hose is optionally arranged for filling the paper sack, wherein the paper sack has a coated paper layer, having a gas-tight coating facing the sack interior, wherein the coating forms the surface of the inner wall of the paper sack contacting the filling material, and wherein the coated paper layer has an overlap which is sealingly adhesively bonded toward the sack interior, and wherein the layer of the coated paper layer facing the sack interior has perforations in the region of the overlap which are covered by the layer of the coated paper layer facing the sack exterior.
