Patent number: 12043451Abstract: One or more implementations of a multi-film thermoplastic bag with a conjoined hem channel. For example, the multi-film thermoplastic bag includes a multi-film hem channel. Bonds secure the layers of the hem channel together so as to prevent a drawtape from inverting or bunching an inner layer of the hem channel during cinching. The bonds are thus located in a hem channel of a multi-film thermoplastic bag so as to reduce an amount of mechanical engagement between the films of the multi-film thermoplastic bag and another thermoplastic film such as a drawtape. In one or more implementations, a grab zone of the multi-film thermoplastic bag also includes bonds in the form of contact areas to provide tactile and visual cues of strength in the grab zone.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2022Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: The Glad Products CompanyInventors: Sarah J Steenblock, Edward B Tucker, Matthew W Waldron, Lehai Minh Pham Vu, John Prusinski, Shaun T Broering, Deborah K Fix, Justin Zickus, David A Bailey, Jason R Maxwell, Michael G Borchardt

Patent number: 7880083Abstract: The present invention discloses a container or bag with several types of compartments with different forms of electromagnetic/wireless shielding. The types of compartments include a) an electromagnetic/wireless shielded compartment useful for line-of-site type shielding, b) an electromagnetic/wireless shielded compartment useful when a complete shielding enclosure is needed, and c) an unshielded compartment. The line-of-site shielded compartment prevents wireless access to the contents contained within when a complete shielding enclosure is not required, for example, for objects containing RFID tags, such as passports, books, and clothing. The compartment with a complete shielding enclosure prevents wireless access to devices that require a complete Faraday type cage, such as mobile phones, PDAs, or computers. Placing these and other devices within the shielded compartments protects them from remote access, and the data within is shielded from unscrupulous individuals.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2007Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Inventor: Oren Livne

Patent number: 5981103Abstract: An assembly of an electronic device within a sealed chamber of a flexible container. The electronic device, which may be a printed circuit board, has signal terminals connected to elongated insulated signal conductors. These conductors pass through a laminate construction wall of the container for connection to outside conductors. The signal conductors are electrically isolated from an EMI protection layer which forms part of the laminate construction wall. A grounding device connects a ground conductor of the electronic device to the EMI protection layer. The grounding device comprises a ground element having teeth on one side. A screwthread arrangement extends through the container wall and clamps the ground element onto the wall with the teeth cutting into the EMI protection layer to be in electrical contact therewith. The ground conductor is electrically connected to the screwthread arrangement.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1997Date of Patent: November 9, 1999Assignee: Northern Telecom LimitedInventors: L. Eugene Batten, Jr., Dennis A. McCulloch, David H. Williams

Patent number: 5881883Abstract: A protective package is disclosed, in particular a package for transporting electrosensitive contents such as electronic components. The package includes a folded inner sheet disposed within a folded outer sheet. The two sheets are sealed together forming an inner pouch and at least one outer pouch. The inner pouch, which is used to contain the primary contents of the package, is defined by the folded inner sheet and the outer pouch, which is used to contain supporting documentation and material, is defined by both the inner and outer folded sheets. The inner sheet is made of a material, such as a laminate, which provides the contents of the inner pouch with additional protection from environmental factors such as static electricity, electromagnetic radiation or electric fields.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 1997Date of Patent: March 16, 1999Inventor: Burt A. Siegelman

Patent number: 5803246Abstract: In surface packaging of thin resin packages such as surface mount resin molded memory ICs or the like, cracks of the package occur frequently at a solder reflow step where thermal impact is applied to the package because the resin has absorbed moisture before packaging. To solve this problem, the devices are packaged moisture-tight at an assembly step of the resin molded devices where the resin is still dry, and are taken out from the bags immediately before the execution of surface packaging.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1996Date of Patent: September 8, 1998Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Wahei Kitamura, Gen Murakami, Kunihiko Nishi

Patent number: 5791485Abstract: A multilayer protection bag for protecting an electronic module, circuit card, or the like comprising walls having an external first layer of an antistatic shield film, a second layer of static-free bubble pack, and a third layer of a static-free film forming an interior liner of the protection bag to inhibit corrosion and outgassing. A mechanical cushioning bumper is provided around the perimeter of the sides and bottom of the protection bag for shock protection. A moisture proof pinch type zip lock is provided on the top of the protection bag. A carrier is provided within the protection bag for holding a desiccant and a humidity indicator. The combination of such wall layers and the cushioning bumper provide an improved in-process protection bag during a manufacturing process and also a shipping and storage protection bag having at least a 10 year shelf-life for a module or circuit card placed within it.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 1997Date of Patent: August 11, 1998Assignee: Raytheon CompanyInventor: Alan J. Carbonneau

Patent number: 5779056Abstract: An ESD protection system which shields PCAs during the assembly process comprises transportable support means for holding an ESD bag in a predetermined position which is convenient both for the insertion and extraction of a PCA(s) and for observing stored PCA(s), thus ensuring proper handling. The system has first and second attachment means for attaching the ESD bag to the frame and for holding papers associated with the PCA(s) outside the ESD bag and for providing the weight necessary for maintaining a sealing fold in the bag whenever the PCA(s) are enclosed therein. The transportable support means is a frame which is constructed to mate with a rack designed for accommodating a plurality of frames. When so mated, the rack provides the desired level of stability and orderly positioning of a desired number of frames spaced apart such that the ESD bags attached to the frames may be easily observed for correct loading, closure and paperwork processing.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 1996Date of Patent: July 14, 1998Assignee: Bull HN Information Systems Inc.Inventors: Robert J. Russell, Robert W. Romeri

Patent number: 5759649Abstract: The packaging container according to the invention for receiving filled product can be used as a self-supporting container or as an in-liner or insert container in supporting outer containers such as corrugated paperboard boxes, wooden cases, box pallets with mesh panels, or drums. The packaging container comprises a multilayered composite film combination which is made up of a polymer film with barrier layer properties, acting as the outer layer of the container, an intermediate layer made of an electrically conductive material and also a further polymer film, forming the inner layer of the packaging container. According to the invention, the further polymer film, forming the inner layer of the packaging container, bears a perforation pattern and the electrically conductive intermediate layer is in connection with a grounding system via electric contact points. The polymer film forming the inner layer of the packaging container is preferably a heat-sealable monofilm or a coextruded film.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 1995Date of Patent: June 2, 1998Assignee: Hoechst AktiengesellschaftInventors: Peter Dinter, Joachim Nowotnick
