Abstract: A method for the production of packing bags which can be stacked on a wicket and unfolded while being filled, and for that purpose are provided at the bottom end of the bag with exposed wicket perforations disposed in a wicket tab. The bag is made from an outspread web which first is assembled to an open-sided tube and then into a flat-folded tube and bonded. The outspread web is severed in the area of the bag-length boundaries which set the bag lengths apart from one another, by means of a cut made transversely of the web, which produces a castellated outline. The bottom area and top area of two bag lengths lie adjacent one another and yield interfitting tabs and notches. The tabs in the top area can be laid one on the other to form a handle section and at least one tab in the bottom area is used as a wicket tab. Unneeded web material between the tabs is cut away.

Abstract: A portable packing bag made of plastic film for carrying flexible and/or folded products includes rectangular front and rear side panel sections which are (a) joined, one to the other, at their vertical edges to provide lateral side panel sections, (b) joined at their upper edges to provide a top cover section, and (c) initially unconnected at their lower edges to permit the bag to be filled but are thereafter joined at such edges, after filling, to form a completely closed bag. The cover section or gusset has upstanding edges that define a shallow trough at the top of the bag. The bag further includes a handle formed as a U-shaped loop which extends across the cover section and is attached to the opposite inner sides of the upstanding edges of the trough. The handle itself is formed of a pair of substantially equal sections which are joined, to form the U-shaped loop, along a seam at the apex of the loop.
