A pouch for fluid comprises: a first film (1100) and a second film (1200) connected to each other by means of a stronger seal (1300) and a weaker seal (2700) so as to form a cavity (1500) for a fluid, wherein the cavity (1500) has a perimeter and said perimeter comprises at least a part of the stronger seal (1300) and at least a part of the weaker seal (2700), and wherein the weaker seal (2700) is in proximity of the stronger seal (1300).

The present application relates to a system for evacuating fluid from a flexible container. The system includes a spout connected to a flexible container. A passageway within the spout is in fluid communication with an inside of the flexible container, and the passageway has a top end and a bottom end. An evacuation facilitating structure is positioned proximate the bottom end of the passageway and has a fluid channel therethrough. The evacuation facilitating structure blocks portions of the wall of the flexible container from entering the bottom end of the passageway and preventing fluid from evacuating the container via the passageway.

Flexible enclosure includes a front wall and a back wall that oppose each other and a side wall that joins the front and back walls. The front wall, the back wall, and the side wall are discrete sections. The front wall and the back wall are attached to opposite edges of the side wall. The side wall is configured to have a slit between top and bottom wall portions of the side wall. The flexible enclosure also includes a resealer extending between the front and back walls along the bottom wall portion of the side wall. The bottom wall portion is separable from the top wall portion along the slit. The bottom wall portion is configured to flex outwardly and away from the top wall portion and form a spout of the flexible enclosure. The resealer is configured to close the spout.

An apparatus and system for dispensing a food and beverage product where a flowable product is extracted from a flexible pouch, and where a nozzle region exists through which the flowable product evacuates the flexible pouch. The nozzle region has a lock seal that locks the flowable product within the flexible pouch when a pressure less than a first threshold value is applied to the flexible pouch. There is also a frangible seal located above the nozzle region that is configured to lock the flowable product within the flexible pouch when pressure less than a second threshold value is applied to the flexible pouch and when the first threshold value is larger than the second threshold value.

A press includes a movable platen and a non-moving platen within a housing defining a pressing chamber including an outlet defined in a front wall of the chamber vertically between the top and bottom of the movable platen. The lid may include a front portion extending over the front of the pressing chamber and defining a slot that is aligned with a slot defined by the front wall to form the outlet. The front wall, the lid, and a sidewall may be removable for cleaning. The produce pack may have edges defining a rectangle with a spout at a first corner and an aperture for suspending the produce pack in the pressing chamber at a second corner that is intersected by a same edge intersecting the first corner. The produce pack may be reusable with a magnetic closure.

A press includes a movable platen and a non-moving platen within a housing defining a pressing chamber, an opening is defined at the top of the pressing chamber for receiving a juice pack and an outlet is defined in a front wall of the chamber vertically between the top and bottom of the movable platen. The lid may include a front portion extending over the front of the pressing chamber and defining a slot that is aligned with a slot defined by the front wall to form the outlet. The front wall, the lid, and a sidewall may be removable for cleaning.

A liner for use with a fluid dispensing vessel. The liner includes a flexible pouch defining an interior region and configured to be placed in a fluid dispensing vessel. The pouch includes a top end that is partially sealed and that includes a first opening. The pouch includes a fluid passageway defined by at least two sealed boundaries and that leads from the opening to the interior region. The pouch includes a bottom end that includes a second opening. The liner includes a fluid dispensing fitment connected to the pouch and configured to be in fluid communication with interior region via the second opening. When fluid is poured into the interior region of the pouch through the opening, it can be dispensed from the pouch through the fitment.

A flexible container incorporating flexible front and rear sheets with a perimeter seal in which at least one length or section of the perimeter seal can include a seal weld that has both a permanent seal section and a pressure absorbing seal section. The pressure absorbing seal section is configured to peel, fail, or split when the flexible container, filled with a solution or liquid, is dropped onto a hard surface to thereby absorb the impact of the drop. The flexible container can be provided with one or more dispensing and/or additive ports or without any port. The flexible container may include more than one compartments with a peelable seal separating two adjoining compartments of the flexible container.
