Definitions

  • the invention relates to a disposable or reusable stand-up bag for mixing and serving of mixtures of powder and liquid.
  • a preferred embodiment is intended for mixing and drinking of protein powder and liquid (typically drinking water) but the invention has a much larger field of use, such as:
  • the invention is characterized by a large, sealable opening, a nozzle with closing mechanism and a foldable bottom, enabling the bag to stand firmly when filled.
  • the sealable opening is placed on the surface of the bag and not along one of the edges. This allows all edges to be designed in a way which optimizes the volume, the handling, the stand-up bottom and the visual impression of the bag.
  • the bag is narrow near the base for comfortable handling and wider at the top - a "Torso shape" allowing the bag to rest comfortably in the hand without squeezing it.
  • the sealable opening - for instance a plastic zipper - is placed near the top where the bag is wide which allows easy filling of powder and liquid without spilling.
  • sealable opening is placed close to the top maximizes the active volume of the mixing bag.
  • a further advantage of placing the sealable opening close to the top but on the surface and not the top edge is that the area above the opening can act as a sliding chute when powder is filled into the bag. All users will find this helpful but especially elderly and physically challenged people as well as children will find the advantage to be considerable.
  • the closable nozzle is placed at the top of the bag which is the ideal position for drinking regardless of how the bag is oriented when lifted by hand and ideal for all of the other uses listed above.
  • bags for storing, transporting and serving of food and drinks, filled in by the producer are well known.
  • the product is either filled via the nozzle or via an opening in the almost-sealed bag before the last section is fused.
  • a bag intended for manual handling & holding should be comfortable to grab and hold - also by one hand and also by a not-so-large hand.
  • the volume of the mixing bag should be as large as possible to accommodate as many different uses as possible. It is easy to achieve a good design compromise between size and handling comfort in a shaker made in hard plastic. It is however a considerable problem for the mixing bags listed as prior art since they will be quite wide. Bags listed in prior art typically have four or five edges - one facing down, two facing the sides and one facing up. The last mentioned edge can be divided into two at an angle, whereby the bag will have five angles out of which two will face upwards. One can be used for nozzle and the other for opening. When the bag shall be suitable for holding in one hand, the bag cannot be very wide and length of the upper edges become very limited when designed in accordance with prior art.
  • the problem has been addressed by placing the nozzle on the side, as high as possible. Even if this embodiment will maximize the width of the top opening, it is still not nearly as wide as on the opening in the invention. And unless the bag is very small, it is still not as comfortable to hold in one hand as the invention; in the preferred embodi- ment of the invention, the bag can be made in a "Torso-shape", where it is narrow around the base for comfortable holding, and wide towards the top, allowing a wide opening for comfortable filling of powder and liquid. The torso shape ensures that the bag rests nicely in the hand since the shoulders prevents it effectively from slipping. (3) Hygienic:
  • the bag can sustain very rough treatment without bursting or leaking.
  • the drinking opening must be large enough to allow air into the container as the liquid is consumed. This is not the case when drinking from a bag, which makes it more pleasant to drink from as long as the nozzle is not to large. This feature is very relevant when using the invention for infant formula since the child is not disturbed by air passing backwards into the bottle.
  • the nozzle is placed symmetrically on the top of the bag which is ideal for drinking comfort, regardless of the rotational angle in which the bag is oriented in the hand.
  • the invention enables designing for the largest possible volume for handling of and holding a bag with one hand.
  • the active volume is made up by the volume below the opening. Maximizing the volume is es- pecially relevant when using the bag for mixing, since the ingredients take up more space before they are mixed than after.
  • the traditional shaker in hard plastic is easy to use when it is dry on the inside and when working at a table when scooping powder.
  • the container with powder is often quite large, so if the user intends to scoop powder for the mixture at the training centre or in the field, then powder is often brought in a smaller container or small plastic bag.
  • a disposable mixing bag the user can prepare the cor- rect quantity of powder in new, clean, dry bags in advance and just add liquid and mix when ready to use the product.
  • the user can prepare a number of clean, dry disposable bags with powder in advance. As long as the powder is dry, the powder can be stored for a long time before use. The bag takes up a minimum of space, even if powder has been filled in. With traditional shakers, there will be a risk of the shaker not being completely dry from cleaning which will increase the risk of the powder decomposing or forming hard lumps.
  • the preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized by a very wide opening which is crucial for the ease of filling the bag with powder.
  • a further advantage of the sealable opening being placed close to the top but on the surface and not the top edge is that the area above the opening can act as a sliding chute when powder is filled into the bag, thereby considerably easing the filling process and reducing the risk of spill.

  • Figure 1 show a preferred embodiment of the mixing bag when it is filled.
  • the bag is made up by sheets of flexible plastic and/or durable material. It consists of four sheets - 21, 22, 23 and 24 - fused together along the edges, forming a tight seal.
  • the four sides form a bag or pouch in which powder and liquid can be mixed, stored and used.
  • 21 is the backside
  • 22 is the upper part of the front side
  • 23 is the lower part of the front side
  • 24 is a folded sheet, forming the bottom.
  • the folded sheet 24 will unfold and help to form a wide bag bottom which can stand upright on a surface.
  • a sealing mechanism - such as a zipper - are fused onto the bottom of 22 and close to the top of 23, leaving a small flap used for pulling the zipper open.
  • the bag contains the two zipper parts 25 and 26 and a nozzle 27 with a screw cap 28 and/or another closing mechanism as known in the art. The nozzle with cap is placed on top of the bag for optimal accessibility for all uses.
  • the bag can be manufactured by processes and using materials, typically used in the art.
  • backside and front side are only used to differentiate two different sides.
  • the sealable opening or zipper is placed on the front side for the sake of understanding. But printing or similar can be used to define either of the sheets 21 or (22+23) as the front side.
  • the plastic film normally used in the art is laminated in such a way that the inner layer has a lower melting point than the outer layer. This is an advantage when controlling the fusing (welding) process.
  • welding welding
  • the modified zipper being suitable for fusing on the same side as the zipper front - see figure 6.
  • the mixing bag has a foldable sheet in both top and bottom, see figure 7. This will enable an even larger volume.
  • the zipper is placed on one of the top edges and the nozzle on the other.
  • the zipper (25 & 26) is placed partially along the top edge with only a small section of sheets 21 and 22 extending above the zipper - see Figure 8.
  • the zipper parts 25 and 26 are curved and placed along the top edge of a curved bag design, see figure 9.
  • the nozzle is made with a flat side to accommodate the zipper and not situated symmetrically between sheets 21 and 22 but above sheet 21.
  • the screw cap 28 it is designed to fill the cavity inside the nozzle so that lumps of powder in the cavity is avoided - see Figure 10
  • the kit contains suction hose with mouth piece intended for hands-free drinking while on the move (for example running) and for people lying down.
  • the mouth piece can contain a system preventing the liquid from flowing when not intended.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un sac à maintien vertical jetable ou réutilisable destiné à mélanger et à servir des mélanges de poudre et de liquide. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le sac permet de mélanger et de boire une poudre de protéines et un liquide, mais l'invention est également destinée à d'autres utilisations, par exemple en tant que biberon de préparation pour nourrissons, pour le mélange de colle, de coulis ou de charge, ou la préparation d'échantillons. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le sac est étroit au niveau de la base pour assurer une manipulation confortable et plus large au niveau de la partie supérieure, ce qui lui donne une "forme de torse". Une ouverture dotée d'une fermeture à glissière en plastique est placée sur la surface du sac à proximité de la partie supérieure où le sac est large, ce qui permet un remplissage facile avec de la poudre et du liquide. La zone située au-dessus de l'ouverture peut servir de goulotte d'introduction, ce qui facilite le remplissage de la poudre dans le sac.
