Sous Vide Mylar Bags

Abstract

A novel form of Mylar bag with air valve is disclosed. The bag provides air valve so air can be removed by using simple air pump. The bag assembly is easy to use and reduces the nuisance of using various types of oxygen absorbers or any other similar supplies. The assembly allows safe retention of food while providing additional layers of protection from moisture, light, and odor.

Claims

1. A polyalkylene terephthalate film bag suitable for packaging, said bag comprising unoriented polyalkylene terephthalate film in the shape of an open-end bag, at least one edge of the bag being formed by adhering the polyalkylene terephthalate film to itself, the adhesive used to adhere said polyalkylene terephthalate film is the combination of Aluminum foil and Poly Ethylene.

2. The product claimed in claim 1, wherein said polyalkylene terephthalate film bag is polyethylene terephthalate film bag, and each adhesive band is at least one-eighth inch wide.

3. The product as claimed in claim 1, wherein said bag is made of a combination of Aluminum foil and Poly Ethylene.

4. The product as claimed in claim 1, wherein said bag’s air valve can be used easily with any type of air pump.

For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help to improve understanding of embodiments of the present invention.

[0026] The apparatus and method components have been represented where appropriate by conventional symbols in the drawings, showing only those specific details that are pertinent to understanding the embodiments of the present invention so as not to obscure the disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Detailed descriptions of the preferred embodiment are provided herein. It is to be understood, however, that the present invention may be embodied in various forms. Therefore, specific details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but rather as a basis for the claims and as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to employ the present invention in virtually any appropriately detailed system, structure or manner.

[0028] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used herein, theterm “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well as the singular forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.

[0029] The present invention is directed to a Mylarbag with air valve to achieve bag with no air, while also being economical to manufacture, reliable, and able to satisfy the performance expectations of the end user.

[0030] The product is designed in form of a rectangular periphery with a top part designed to receive the food. The air valve can be connected with any air pump to remove air from the bag.

[0031] Once the bag is ready to be used, the product may be loaded through the open end, and the bag then air evacuated and closed, for instance, by means of air valve. The bag maintains the product taste and preserves the nutrients of food.

[0032] The bag as per its further embodiments can be used for packaging of food products, medical and pharmaceutical items, prevents corrosion of ferrous objects, such as nuts and bolts and can be used for storage of storage of herbs and spices.

[0033] While a specific embodiment has been shown and described, many variations are possible. With time, additional features may be employed. The particular shape or configuration of the platform or the interior configuration may be changed to suit the system or equipment with which it is used.

[0034] Having described the invention in detail, those skilled in the art will appreciate that modifications may be made to the invention without departing from its spirit. Therefore, it is not intended that the scope of the invention be limited to the specific embodiment illustrated and described. Rather, it is intended that the scope of this invention be determined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0035] The Abstract of the Disclosure is provided to allow the reader to quickly ascertain the nature of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. In addition, in the foregoing Detailed Description, it can be seen that various features are grouped together in various embodiments for the purpose of streamlining the disclosure. This method of disclosure is not to be interpreted as reflecting an intention that the claimed embodiments require more features than are expressly recited in each claim. Rather, as the following claims reflect, inventive subject matter lies in less than all features of a single disclosed embodiment. Thus, the following claims are hereby incorporated into the Detailed Description, with each claim standing on its own as a separately claimed subject matter.
