Patent number: 7942577Abstract: A flexible bag comprises flexible sheet material assembled to form a semi-enclosed container having an opening. The bag has a drawtape closure for sealing the opening. The sheet material of the drawtape closure exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis. The sheet material of the drawtape closure comprises a first region and a second region. The first region and said second region are comprised of the same material composition and each has an untensioned projected pathlength. The first region undergoes a substantially molecular-level deformation and the second region initially undergoes a substantially geometric deformation when the sheet material is subjected to an applied elongation in a direction substantially parallel to an axis in response to an externally-applied force upon the sheet material of the drawtape closure.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2006Date of Patent: May 17, 2011Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Robert W.

Publication number: 20080292222Abstract: Provided is a tie bag having at least two tie flaps. The tie bag includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposing the first sidewall. The first and second sidewalls are coupled by sealing together three of four corresponding peripheral edges of the sidewalls. The fourth peripheral edge of each of the first and second sidewalls remains unsealed to define an opening in the tie bag. The tie flaps are integral with and extend from the opening of the tie bag and are adapted for tying one to another to close the tie bag and to form a handle for the tie bag. Each of the tie flaps includes gripping features embossed on at least one surface of the tie flaps. The tie bag may be formed from a tube of thermoplastic material.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2008Publication date: November 27, 2008Applicant: The Glad Products CompanyInventor: Charles B. Snoreck
