Definitions
- the present invention relates to a child-resistant zipper and a packaging bag including such a zipper to hinder unwanted opening of the zipper, for example, by a child, etc., but which is readily opened by predetermined procedures.
- child-resistant refers to a function/mechanism by means of which it is possible to prevent an object from being easily manipulated, for example, by a child or other similar individual. Due to this function, a child is hindered or prevented, for example, from tampering with a lighter, and from easily opening a container of medicine, etc.
- some packaging bags accommodate objects which should not be touched by children, etc.
- a child-resistant zipper for packaging bags to make it difficult for the bag to be opened based on the strength of a child by enhancing the strength of the releasable engagement or fit-engagement of the zipper.
- a packaging bag including a sealing zipper which can be easily opened and closed may be used for various applications.
- a zipper is provided which extends along a seal formed by fusion-bonding of the opening of the bag. After opening this seal, the zipper can be opened and closed. Since the zipper can be opened and closed arbitrarily, by thus providing the seal along the zipper, it is possible to prevent the zipper from being opened or closed while being sold.
- the object may be expanded within the packaging bag, causing the zipper to be inadvertently opened.
- the fit-engagement strength of the zipper is enhanced; also in this case, the zipper of an enhanced fit-engagement strength is made difficult to open or close, resulting in inconvenience at the time of use.
- the present invention has been made with a view toward solving at least one of the above problems.
- a child-resistant zipper equipped with a first and second adhesion band members respectively adhered to inner opposing surfaces of an opening P2 of a packaging bag, and first and second fit-engagement portions respectively provided on the opposing surfaces of the adhesion band members, with the fit-engagement portions being adapted for releasable fit-engagement with each other, wherein the adhesive surface of the first adhesion band member is provided on its lower surface to provide a lower surface adhering fit-engagement body in which the fit-engagement portion of the first adhesion band member is arranged along the upper end of the first adhesion band member 1, and wherein there is provided a releasing member on the upper end of the adhesion band member of the lower surface adhering fit-engagement body, the releasing member being adapted to release engagement of the fit-engagement body 2 when the releasing member and the second adhesion band member are opened in opposite directions.
- a zipper wherein, on the second adhesion band member opposite the lower surface adhering fit-engagement body, there is provided an upper surface adhering fit-engagement body in which the adhesive surface of the second adhesion band member is provided on the upper surface thereof and the fit-engagement portion is arranged on the lower end of the second adhesion band member.
- a zipper wherein one of the first and second fit-engagement portions comprises at least one male fit-engagement protrusion and the other fit-engagement portion comprises at least one female fit-engagement recess configured to be fit-engaged in a rib-like or face-like manner, wherein the fit-engagement of the first and second fit-engagement portions is released by inserting an itembetween the male fit-engagement protrusion and the female fit-engagement recess at the releasing member 3 side of the lower surface adhering fit-engagement body.
- a zippered packaging bag equipped with a pair of opposing sides, first and second adhesion band members, each comprising an upper and lower surface on upper and lower ends thereof, one surface of which is an adhesive surface adhered to the inner opposing surfaces of the sides of the packaging bag, and a zipper comprising first and second fit-engagement portions respectively provided on opposing surfaces of the adhesion band members and configured to releasably fit-engage to form a fit-engagement body, wherein the adhesive surface of the first adhesion band member is on its lower surface to provide a lower surface adhering fit-engagement body in which the first fit-engagement portion is arranged along the upper end of the first adhesion band member, and the adhesive surface of the second adhesion band member is on its upper surface to provide an upper surface adhering fit-engagement body in which the second fit-engagement portion is arranged on the lower end of the second band adhesion member, and wherein there is provided a releasing member on the upper end of the first adhesion band member of the lower surface adh
- the fit-engagement body is opened or released from engagement when the releasing member of the lower surface adhering fit-engagement body and the second band adhesion member are opened in opposite directions, thereby providing a child-resistant zipper which is difficult to open by a child, or similar individual, but which can readily be opened by predetermined procedures.
- the zipper may be formed by an appropriate number of rib-type or face-type male fit-engagement portions 2A and female fit-engagement portions 2B, whereby it is possible to select an arbitrary type of zipper. Furthermore, the fit-engaged fit-engagement portion 2 is opened by inserting a finger between the male fit-engagement portion 2A and the female fit-engagement portion 2B from the releasing member 3 side, so that, even if the fit-engagement strength of the fit-engagement portion 2 is enhanced, the zipper can be easily opened by predetermined procedures.
- the fit-engagement portion 2 is not opened even if the packaging bag is opened, and the fit-engagement portion is opened by using the releasing portion; thus, it is possible to provide various packaging bags according to various applications, such as a tamper-free packaging bag, and a packaging bag for accommodating heavy objects.
- the zipper according to an embodiment of the present invention may be, for example, a polyethylene or polypropylene resin zipper, in which a fit-engagement portion 2 is releasably fit-engaged.
- the zipper is formed by providing the fit-engagement body 2 on first and second adhesion band members 1.
- the adhesion band members 1 are band-like members respectively adhered to the inner opposing side surfaces of a packaging bag, for example, formed by a pair of resin sheets Pi superimposed one upon the other at the opening P2 of a packaging bag P, such as a laminated polyester or polyethylene structure (See Figs. 2 and 5 ).
- the fit-engagement body 2 is a fit-engagement member comprising first and second fit-engagement portions.
- the first fit-engagement portion comprises at least one male fit-engagement protrusion 2A and the second fit-engagement portion comprises at least one female fit-engagement recess 2B.
- the first and second fit-engagement portions are situated on opposing inner side surfaces of the adhesion band members 1 and extend in the longitudinal direction along the adhesion band members 1 (See Figs. 4 and 9 ).
- Each adhesion band member 1 comprises upper and lower side surfaces at upper and lower ends thereof, respectively, for placement against resin sheets P1.
- the lower side surface of one adhesion band member 1 is an adhesive surface
- the upper side surface of the other adhesion band member 1 is an adhesive surface such that the position of the fit-engagement body 2 is substantially centered therebetween.
- the lower surface adhering fit-engagement body 10 and the upper surface adhering fit-engagement body 20, respectively See Figs. 2 and 7 ).
- the adhesive surface of the adhesion band member 1 adhered to the side of a packaging bag P1 is situated on the lower end of the fit-engagement body 2 of one adhesion band member 1 (i.e. the end closest to the interior portion P3 of the bag P), and the fit-engagement portion 2 is arranged to extend along the upper end of this adhesion band member 1 (See Fig. 2 ).
- the upper surface of the adhesion band member 1 e. g. the portion where the fit-engagement portion 2 is provided (i.e. closest to the opening P2 of the bag) is not adhered to the side of the packaging bag P1.
