Abstract: A bag including a containment portion having an opening to receive items, a bag seal at an end of the bag opposite the opening, a handle seal at an end of the containment portion opposite the opening, the handle seal located between the bag seal and the opening, and a handle in a handle body formed between the handle seal and the bag seal.

Abstract: A handle body is formed in a lower end of a bag between a transverse bottom seal and an intermediate handle seal. The handle body has a deflected weld line having a midpoint and end points, and is nearest to the transverse bottom seal at the midpoint. The deflected weld line is arranged so that a line tangent to the deflected weld line at either end point defines an angle greater than or less than 90 degrees with respect to a second line running transversely through the midpoint. Between the midpoint and the end points, the deflected weld line can include different combinations of perforated, nonperforated, welded, and nonwelded line segments.

Abstract: An eversible sealable glove has front and rear panels, each panel having a cuff portion, a sleeve portion, a hand portion, and a perimeter. The perimeter of the front panel is completely sealed to the perimeter of the rear panel. An opening is formed through the front panel between the cuff portion of the front panel and the sleeve portion of the front panel, and may be sealed by a zipping closure comprising a mating pair of female and male extrusions, wherein one of the extrusions is bonded to the cuff portion of the front panel and the other one of the extrusions is bonded to the sleeve portion of the front panel. The zipping closure is configured to allow the mating pair to seal the opening whether the glove is everted or noneverted. A method for manufacturing the glove is also disclosed.

Abstract: A dripless trash bag formed from flattened material such as plastic sheeting or tubular plastic is configured to absorb liquid waste accumulating therein by means of a perforated transverse retaining weld located between top and the bottom ends of the bag and intermittently sealing front and back sides of the bag. An absorbent material located between the retaining weld and the bottom end may be hydrophilic or hydrophobic, and may be a strip of absorbent material or a liquid-permeable container enclosing an absorbent material such as a desiccant. One or more voids defined in the perforated retaining weld allow passage of liquid through the weld into contact with the absorbent material.

Abstract: A bag has a body portion having a seam forming a pocket, an opening in the body portion arranged to receive items, a first handle located adjacent to the opening, and a second handle arranged adjacent to the seam, off-set from the first handle. A method of manufacture a bag having two handles includes providing stock in the form of a tubular plastic film stock, forming a first bag from the tubular plastic film stock, the first bag having a first handle at a top of the bag, and a second handle at a bottom of the bag, and forming a second bag from the tubular plastic film stock, the second bag having a first handle at a top of the second bag, the first handle of the second bag arranged adjacent the bottom handle of the first bag.

Abstract: A dispensing container is designed for dispensing bags from plastic bag rolls, especially bags having lower handle holes that are reverse-rolled for dispensing bottom-end first. The container has a top surface with an opening configured for withdrawing a bag from a roll enclosed therein. A handle hole arresting tab projects inwardly across the opening to catch and arrest an inner adjacent bag when an outermost bag is withdrawn, to facilitate separation of the bags at a perforated junction. A plastic bag dispensing system is also disclosed and includes the dispensing container and reverse-rolled bags equipped with lower handle holes. The system exposes a bottom end of an outermost bag of the roll through the opening while enclosing a top end of the outermost bag within the roll.

Abstract: A glove having a panel having a cuff portion and a hand portion, a seal located on the panel, the seal having both male and female portions integrated into a single extrusion adhered to the inside surface of the first panel, the seal arranged between the cuff portion and the hand portion nearer to the cuff portion, and a perforated access to the first seal.
