Abstract: A plastic container includes a neck with an opening to an interior of the container, where the neck opening having a first diameter and a second diameter of different lengths. A shoulder portion surrounds the neck of the plastic container. A transfer bead is located on the neck above the shoulder portion where the first diameter of the neck opening is above the transfer bead and the second diameter is below the transfer bead. The transfer bead is advantageously shaped and sized so as to facilitate application and removal of a sterilization solution during the aseptic packaging process.

Abstract: A combination knapsack including a mat permanently attached to one of the walls of a main storage compartment and a flap permanently attached to another of the walls of the main storage compartment. In a storage mode of use, the mat is completely retained within the main storage compartment of the knapsack and the flap covers the opening to the main storage compartment. In an operational mode of use, the mat is fully extended outside the knapsack and the flap is either on the knapsack or on the mat to be used as a headrest or pillow. In another embodiment, the knapsack further comprises a blanket that may be closed about the legs of the wearer in a sitting position and an insulating handwarming muff.

Abstract: A paper bag is formed from a single sheet of paper by folding the same to produce a final generally rectangular bag or receptacle with an open end. The upper edge portion around the bag opening is folded in and glued to provide greater strength thereat. During the folding and glueing of this opening strength turned-in collar, two carrying handles are also glued in, one on each of the bag's largest sides. According to this invention, a corner portion at one end of the turned-in collar portion is cut out and enables glueing thereat to an inner surface rather than the typically smoother outer surface of the paper, thereby providing improved strength to the reinforced opening of the bag.

Abstract: A lapel provided at the one end of a paper sheet to forming a paper bag is introduced into the interior of an opening on the rotary cylinder by means. The folding blade has a rotational axis located outside the rotary cylinder parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotary cylinder. The thus bent lapel is brought in pressure contact with the edge face of the opening by means of a holding pawl which turns in operative association with the rotary cylinder. Thereafter, the lapel is covered and depressed by means of a depressing pawl which turns in operative association with the rotary cylinder whereby the lapel and a part of the paper sheet are adhesively secured to one another to build a double-walled structure around the opening of the paper bag.
