Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a paper bag, such as a rice bag or flour bag, that is made by stacking 3 to 5 sheets of kraft paper with wood glue, giving it strength and allowing it to stand stably. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, as shown in the following patent document, basket-shaped bags have been made by weaving paper tapes, and the basket-shaped bags knitted in this manner are put to practical use as lightweight and durable basket-shaped bags due to the materials used. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2005-218736 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] The basket-shaped bags are made by weaving paper tape and other materials, and require considerable effort to make. [Means for solving the problem]
[0005] Kraft paper, such as rice bags and flour bags that are discarded by restaurants and other businesses, is easy to obtain.
[0006] Kraft paper, such as rice bags and flour bags, is very easy to process.
[0007] You can increase the strength of the material by cutting kraft paper such as rice bags or flour bags along the cut lines and stacking 3 to 5 sheets with wood glue. [Effects of the Invention]
[0008] In this invention, three to five sheets of kraft paper, such as rice bags or flour bags, are cut and stacked with wood glue to increase the strength and create a paper bag that can stand on its own.
[0009] By applying persimmon tannins or paint to the box-shaped surface, it is possible to create a texture and design that makes it hard to believe it is made of kraft paper.
[0010] Reinforcement material is added to the sides of the paper bag to prevent it from losing its shape.
[0011] The handles of the paper bag are made of leather or synthetic leather tape to give it a luxurious feel.
[0012] Metal fittings are attached to the bottom of the paper bag to prevent direct contact with the floor. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 3] This is a three-dimensional diagram of a rice bag and a flour bag. [Figure 4] This is a three-dimensional diagram of rice bags and flour bags glued together with wood glue. [Figure 5] This is a three-dimensional diagram of stacked rice bags and flour bags sewn together on one side with a sewing machine. [Figure 6] This is a plan view of stacked rice bags and flour bags. [Figure 7] This is a three-dimensional diagram of rice bags and flour bags stacked together and expanded to form a gusset. [Figure 8] FIG. 8 is a plan view of the gusset portion formed in FIG. 7 folded inward. [Figure 9] This is a plan view of the bag with reinforcing kraft paper pasted on the bottom surface. [Figure 10] This is a plan view of a box-shaped opening with leather tape or synthetic leather tape attached by caulking. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0014] FIG. 4 shows a process for increasing the strength related to the self-supporting property according to the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
