Embodiment Construction

[0022]Referring now to the drawings in detail wherein like numerals indicate like elements throughout the several views, one sees that FIG. 1 is a side plan view of a concatenation of chain-linked bags 100 as used in embodiments of the present disclosure. The bags 100 are inverted so that open bottom 102 is presented as the uppermost part of the bag 100 in the orientation of FIG. 1. The open bottom 102 is formed between offset flanges 104, 106 (see FIG. 3) thereby presenting a path for filling or loading. Typically, one flange, illustrated here as flange 104 includes a series of spaced alignment apertures 108. The spacing of the apertures 108 corresponds to the spacing of the sprocket pin drive elements of the manufacturing apparatus (see subsequent figures). Front and rear polymeric walls 110, 112 extend from the flanges 104, 106 to form the bags 100, which a storage space formed therebetween. The top 114 of the bags 100, configured at the lowermost portion of the bags in the illus...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a packaging system for compressible goods utilizing pre-punched alignment apertures on wicketed and/or chain-linked open bottom bags. The disclosure relates to a bag transport and indexing system through the form fill compress and seal system. The disclosure further relates to the use of sprocket pins spaced accordingly on either a horizontal linear or rotary machine so that the sprockets correspond to the pre-punched apertures on the wicketed and/or chain-linked open bottom bags.

Description

[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 61 / 536,263 filed on Sep. 19, 2011, the contents of which is hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE[0002]1. Field of the Disclosure[0003]The present disclosure relates to a packaging system for compressible goods utilizing pre-punched alignment apertures on wicketed and / or chain-linked open bottom bags. The disclosure relates to a bag transport and indexing system through the form fill compress and seal system.[0004]2. Description of the Prior Art[0005]In the prior art, the form fill compress and seal technology has been substantially developed. This technology forms a container, typically from polymeric material, fills the container with a compressible good, typically a large compressible good such as, but not limited to, a blanket or similar item, compresses the compressible good within the package and then seals the package shut.[0...
