  • Patent number: 11198257
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing and depositing a bag, in particular a flap bag (1), wherein the bag has a base, a filling opening and, in a pocket region (3), two layers, and the two layers are welded together at least in the region of a side seam (6) of the bag, wherein the bag is then moved by means of at least one transport arm (9) to a depositing device and during the movement is held on the transport arm (9) by means of negative pressure, characterised in that the at least one transport arm (9) is oriented parallel to the side seam (6) of the bag, and after welding of the two layers, as a result of which the side seam (6) is formed, the side region of the bag is placed on the transport arm (9) and during movement to the depositing device and up until depositing, the bag is held on the transport arm (9) by means of negative pressure.

  • Publication number: 20180282025
    Abstract: The invention relates to a drawstring bag (1) made of two lateral parts (2, 3) which are connected together at the lateral edges (4) of the parts. A receiving region for a drawstring (7) is provided in the opening-side region of the drawstring bag (1), and a drawstring (7) is arranged in the receiving region. The drawstring (7) is connected to the drawstring bag (1) on one side and is freely accessible on the other side. The invention is characterized in that a locking strip (11) arranged on the drawstring (7) is provided between the region connected to the drawstring bag (1) and the freely accessible region of the drawstring (7), said locking strip coming into contact with an opening edge of the receiving region for the drawstring (7) when the locking strip has left the receiving region.

  • Patent number: 9090389
    Abstract: A package of plastic film for articles to be packaged is made by first forming in an inner layer of longitudinally extending plastic film or in an outer layer of longitudinally extending plastic film a plurality of longitudinally spaced labels each having an outer periphery releasably joined to the respective layer. The inner and outer layers are juxtaposed and welded together along transverse welds between the labels so as to form between the layers a longitudinal row of compartments each having a respective one of the labels. A respective article is inserted into each of the compartments a respective article. Only the labels are adhered to the respective articles such that when one of the articles is removed from the respective compartment the respective label is separated from the respective layer and stays on the removed article.

  • Publication number: 20130071585
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to produce plastic film packagings for packaged items, in particular containers. In order to achieve said aim, a layer (2, 3) of plastic film is welded with a laid-on layer (1, 4) of plastic film with a transversal weld seam (13, 14, 20) in order to form compartments between the one layer (2, 3) and the laid-on layer (1, 4). According to the invention, a part of the one layer (2, 3) and/or a part of the laid-on layer (1, 4) is designed as a label (16) for the packaged item, wherein the shape of the labels (16) is in each case applied, in particular punched, before the transversal welding, said label remaining on the packaged item after removal of the packaged item from its compartment.
