Container of Wipes with a Stabilising TrackPack Device

a trackpack device and wipe container technology, applied in the field of rft for rigid flip top for wipe container, can solve the problems of deploying hermetically sealed soft pack containers within such housings, affecting the health of babies, and much more difficult to hold these soft pack containers in a fixed position within the housing

Problems solved by technology

There are however challenges associated to deploying hermetically sealed soft pack containers within such housings.
Due to their flexible nature, it is much more difficult to hold these soft pack containers in a fixed position within the housing.
If however a container of kitchen wipes should erroneously be placed in a dispenser housing in the baby changing room, a person will end up using a kitchen wipe on the baby's skin which could be detrimental to the baby's health.

Embodiment Construction

[0040]Embodiments of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:

[0041]Referring to FIG. 1 there is shown a top view of an RFT A attached to a hermetically sealed soft pack dispensing container of wipes B. The soft pack is generally cuboid, having two similar rectangular sides (only one side 8 being here visible), two ends 10, 11, and an upper face 12, and lower face 13 (not here visible). The soft pack contains a stack of wipes encapsulated by an outer covering of flexible, impermeable material, typically formed from a sleeve of material bonded at each of the ends 10, 11, so that the soft pack is hermetically sealed, apart from the opening through the RFT A.

[0042]The upper face 12 is rectangular, having two long edges 14, 15 and two short edges 16, 17 where it meets the sides (that is, side 8 and the opposite side not here visible) and ends 10, 11 respectively. The lower face 13 has the same dimensions as the upper face. The height of th...

Abstract

Referring to FIG. 1. The invention relates to a housing for a soft pack dispensing container for wipes B, the latter featuring hermetically sealed edges 10, 11 and a rigid flip top A which has a frame fixed to the dispensing container B, a frame which surrounds an aperture 7 through which wipes are extracted. The fixed frame features at least two slide rails 3, 4 enabling the dispensing container A to attach to the supports within a housing so long as at least one of the slide rails 3, 4 is of a specific geometric cross section profile that corresponds to the geometric cross section profile of its corresponding support.

Description

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a ‘Rigid Flip Top’ (RFT) for a soft pack dispensing container for wipes which features a device to enable the pack to remain in a stable position within a dispenser as wipes are extracted from it.[0002]Wipes are often sold in dispensing containers that take the form of a soft pack with hermetically sealed side edges and a mouth in the middle of the top side of the pack from which to access the wipes. In order to prevent moisture loss from the pack, this mouth is generally sealed in one of two ways; either by way of a removable self adhesive strip or by way of an integral hard plastic lid assembly called a ‘Rigid Flip Top’ (RFT). The latter consists of a hard plastic frame fixed to the upper side of the soft pack and features a lid or cap connected to it by a hinge mechanism. The frame defines the opening or mouth of the soft pack through which the wipes will be dispensed and is permanently fixed to the soft pack by adhesi...
