  • Patent number: 11472146
    Abstract: A non-durable flexible container can include a first film wall including a first portion comprising at least one first structural support member defined in the first film wall, and a second portion that is free of a structural support member. The container can further include a second film wall including at least one second structural support member defined in the second film wall, wherein at least a portion of the first structural support member is adjacent to at least a portion of the second structural support member to define a seam region, and a side of the seam region defines an edge of the non-durable flexible container. The container can also include a closed produce volume defined between first and second film walls; and a seam projecting outwardly from the seam region at an intersection of the first and second film walls.

  • Publication number: 20210100992
    Abstract: A method of making a face mask for a face of a human user can include determining a lower eye region bound and determining an upper eye region bound by locating an upper bound of the eyeball as determined by a peak point of an arc of concavity in an upper eyelid of the at least one eye when the eye is closed. The method can also include setting a first anchor point about 0 mm to about 10 mm below the lower eye region bound, and setting a second anchor point about 0 mm to about 10 mm above the upper eye region bound; and defining at least one eye opening for a face mask having first edge that intersects the first anchor point and a second edge that intersects the second anchor point.
