  • Publication number: 20040010893
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a plastic zipper equipped with a slider, and a bag body equipped with the above plastic zipper, and the object of the invention is to provide a plastic zipper equipped with a slider which zipper is required to have a strong opening force despite its miniaturization. The object is achieved in a hermetically sealing plastic zipper equipped with a slider (S) for opening and closing the zipper, comprising a pair of male hook and female hook (F1-1, F1-2, M1-1, M1-2), by installing flanges on the opening portion sides for each of the male and female hooks, connecting the respective ends of the flanges, and pressing a wedged opening plate into the inside of a closed plastic cylinder which is constituted of the flange portions connected respective ends thereof and extended to the zipper in an engaged state so that the zipper is firstly opened and after the zipper is opened, the top portion of the flanges in a connected state is disconnected.

  • Patent number: 6539594
    Abstract: A plastic zipper including a male hook and a pair of female hooks that are engaged with each other to form a combination thereof. In the plastic zipper, when an opening force is applied to the plastic zipper from an opening side thereof, the pair of female hooks is provided on a flange, a portion of which, being defined by base portions of two female hooks on an opening and content side, becomes flexible. The plastic zipper is favorably used for containers for packaging, since it permits resistance to opening on the opening side to consistently hold a low value of from about 0.9 kg/5 cm to about 1.

  • Patent number: 4738852
    Abstract: A feedstuff for swine containing 0.001% to 0.1% by weight of L-tryptophan or its salt, in addition to a required amount of L-tryptophan component, together with the other essential constituents. The inclusion of the additional L-tryptophan or its salt results in increases in milk yields and body weight of dams, an increase in growth rate of farrows, a reduction of recurrence days of estrus, and an increase in the body weight gain of fattening pigs or hogs. A method for formulating the feedstuff containing the additional amount of L-tryptophan or its salt is also presented.
