  • Patent number: 7077570
    Abstract: A zipper tape is provided which can freely be used regardless of whether the zipper tape is made from a polypropylene-based resin or a polyethylene-based resin and also on which letters can be printed or any color can be given thereto. A method of producing the zipper tape with high productivity by means of extruding male strips and female strips in rows in a batch is provided. The zipper tape (2) with the mating section (3) (the male strip (3a) and the female strip (3b)) formed thereon has a three-layered structure comprising the heat-insulating film (6) as an intermediate layer, the thermally fused film (7) thermally fused and bonded to one side of the heat-insulating film (6) of the bag (5), and the thermally fused film (8) for formation of a mating section bonded to another side of the bag (5).

  • Patent number: 7045183
    Abstract: The ease of opening of a tubular casing is facilitated based on a plastic film comprising three or more layers. The tubular sealed casing (1) for packaging the contents therein is based on a composite plastic film formed into a tubular form by bending the base film into a circular form, overlaying two edges of the bent base film, and heat-sealing the overlaid section so that a not heat-sealed section (8) will be left in an edge section of an upper film when the two edges thereof are overlaid on each other. The casing base film (2) is a composite plastic film comprising three or more layers. In this casing, the peel strength between the outer layer (5) and intermediate layer film (3) is set to a lower level as compared to the peel strength between the inner layer film (4) and intermediate layer film (3).

  • Patent number: 6808666
    Abstract: A zipper tape is provided which can freely be used regardless of whether the zipper tape is made from a polypropylene-based resin or a polyethylene-based resin and also on which letters can be printed or any color can be given thereto. A method of producing the zipper tape with high productivity by means of extruding male strips and female strips in rows in a batch is provided. The zipper tape with the mating section formed thereon has a three-layered structure. The male strips and female strip for forming a mating section together are extruded from a miscellaneous extrusion molding machine onto a surface of the thermally fused film for forming a mating section in rows in the state where adjoining male and female strips form pairs respectively and are thermally fused and bonded to the base tape.
