Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container according to the preamble of claim 1, for liquids or for fluid products, including viscous ones, obtained by folding and heat-sealing a single sheet of flexible material.
  • a container according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from the document EP 0 620 156 A1.
  • the aim of the present invention is to eliminate or substantially reduce the problems of the prior art containers for liquids or fluid products, including viscous ones, obtained by folding and heat-sealing a single sheet of flexible material.
  • an important object is to provide containers having such a shape to be self-supporting.
  • Another object is to provide containers which have low manufacture and sale costs.
  • Another object is to produce containers by using know equipment.
  • Another object is to provide containers which can be manufactured rapidly.
  • a container made of flexible material particularly for liquids or fluids, characterized in that it is made of a single sheet of flexible material which is folded so as to form two mutually opposite quadrangular faces directly heat-sealed along two consecutive sides and connected along two further sides by accordion-like portions obtained by folding said sheet, a first accordion-like portion forming, on a third side, a substantially triangular base, a second accordion-like portion forming a closure wall on a fourth side, a closable opening for filling said container being provided.
  • a container for liquids or fluid products, including viscous ones, according to the invention is generally designated by the reference numeral 10.
  • the container 10 is obtained by folding a single sheet so as to form two mutually opposite quadrangular faces 11a and 11b.
  • the two mutually opposite faces 11a and 11b are directly heat-sealed to each other along two consecutive sides 12 and 13.
  • the fourth side 16 constitutes a continuous closure wall of the container 10 and is also provided with a second accordion-like portion 17.
  • the third side 14 and the first accordion-like portion 15 form a substantially triangular base for the container 10, which in combination with the second accordion-like portion 17 allows said container to self-support when filled.
  • the container 10 has, on the side 12, a closable filling opening 20.
  • the opening 20 allows to fill the containers 10 directly during the production process if vertical machines are used.
  • the container 10 can also be filled after its manufacture again by means of the opening 20.
  • Figures 6 and 7 illustrate a container 10 provided with a straw 21.
  • the straw 21 can be inserted in the container 10 through a weakened portion 22 arranged in one of the two faces 11a and 11b.
  • the container 10 can be produced directly with a straw 21 arranged inside.
  • the straw 21 is arranged transversely, with one end 23 located at a peel-off heat-sealed portion 24 of the container 10.
  • the peel-off heat-sealed portion 24 is located in the comer where the directly heat-sealed consecutive sides 12 and 13 converge.
  • Two identical containers 10a and 10b can form a double container, generally designated by the reference numeral 25, as shown in Figure 8.
  • the two containers 10a and 10b are joined by means of their directly heat-sealed sides 13a and 13b which are consecutive to the bases 14a and 14b.
  • the two containers 10a and 10b can be separated by means of a series of prescores 26 formed longitudinally along the joined sides 13a and 13b.
  • the container can also be manufactured at low costs and by using equipment of the known type or in any case equipment already used to manufacture containers having a different shape.
  • the materials used may be any according to requirements.
