Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] The conventional packaging bag by bag-making and filling as in Patent Document 1 had a problem that it could not be easily opened.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and provides a packaging bag that can be easily opened.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] According to the present invention, there is provided a packaging bag composed of a film laminated multiple times, the packaging bag including a cylindrical body formed by forming a longitudinal seal portion on the film, an upper horizontal seal portion, a lower horizontal seal portion, and an opening portion. The upper horizontal seal portion is provided so as to close the upper side of the cylindrical body, the lower horizontal seal portion is provided so as to close the lower side of the cylindrical body. When the tensile elastic modulus of the film in the longitudinal direction along the longitudinal seal portion is Ve, and the tensile elastic modulus of the film in the lateral direction along the horizontal seal portion is He, the relationship Ve < He is satisfied, and the opening portion is formed along the lateral direction.

[0007] This configuration results in a lower tensile modulus in the longitudinal direction than in the transverse direction, which suppresses the stretching of the film in the longitudinal direction when opening the lateral seal, making it easier to open.

[0008] The following are examples of various embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments shown below can be combined with each other. Preferably, the opening portion is formed in the upper lateral sealing portion. Preferably, the upper lateral seal portion has perforations formed as the opening portion. Preferably, an unsealed portion is formed in the upper lateral seal portion at a position in the direction in which the opening portion extends. Preferably, the upper limit of the tensile modulus of elasticity He in the transverse direction of the film is 1000 MPa. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 3] This is an explanatory diagram for explaining inflation molding. [Figure 4] This is an explanatory diagram illustrating the bag-making and filling process. [Figure 5] This figure shows the tensile modulus Ve in the longitudinal direction and the tensile modulus He in the transverse direction of the packaging bag 1 in the example. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. The various features shown in the embodiments below can be combined with each other. Furthermore, each feature can stand alone as an independent invention.

[0011] 1. Packaging bag 1 As shown in Figure 1, a packaging bag 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a cylindrical body 3 formed by forming a vertical seal portion 7 on a multi-layered film 2, an upper horizontal seal portion 4, and a lower horizontal seal portion 5. The various seal portions can be formed by heat sealing the opposing inner surfaces of the film 2. Normally, the packaging bag 1 is filled with contents, but for convenience, Figure 1 shows the packaging bag 1 without contents. Examples of contents include dairy products such as milk and soy milk, and foods such as flower paste, jam, and bean paste.

[0012] In the following explanation, the top, bottom, left, and right of Figure 1 will be considered to represent the top, bottom, left, and right of the packaging bag 1. Specifically, the axial direction of the cylindrical body 3 is the vertical direction, and the left and right sides when the vertical seal portion 7 is positioned towards the front are the left and right sides of the packaging bag 1. Furthermore, the side with the vertical seal portion 7 is considered the front, and the opposite side is considered the back.

[0013] The length of the packaging bag 1 in the left-right direction is, for example, 140 to 400 mm, and preferably 160 to 300 mm. Specifically, this length is, for example, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 260, 270, 280, 290, 300, 310, 320, 330, 340, 350, 360, 370, 380, 390, and 400, and may be within the range of any two of the values ​​exemplified here. If this value is too small, the contents may stick to the inner surface of the packaging bag 1 during bag making and filling, making filling difficult. This problem is particularly noticeable when the contents have high viscosity. The value of [length of packaging bag 1 in the vertical direction / length of packaging bag 1 in the left-right direction] is, for example, 1.1 to 5, and preferably 2 to 4. Specifically, these values ​​could be, for example, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, or within the range of any two of the numbers exemplified here.

[0014] The upper lateral seal portion 4 and the lower lateral seal portion 5 are provided to close the upper and lower sides of the cylindrical body 3, respectively. Preferably, the upper lateral seal portion 4 and the lower lateral seal portion 5 are formed along the upper and lower ends of the cylindrical body 3, respectively. Preferably, the upper lateral seal portion 4 and the lower lateral seal portion 5 are formed perpendicular to the vertical seal portion 7.

[0015] The vertical seal portion 7 is provided on the girdle portion 8, which is formed by bending the film 2 into a cylindrical shape and overlapping the inner surfaces of both side edges of the film 2. The girdle portion 8 is bent toward one side edge 1a. In the following, a plan view means that the packaging bag 1 is laid flat when it does not contain any contents, as shown in Figure 1, and is viewed from a direction perpendicular to the main surface 1b of the packaging bag 1 in that state.

[0016] If L is the length of the packaging bag 1 in the left-right direction, and L1 is the length of the gusset portion 8 in the left-right direction, then L1 / L is preferably 0.3 to 0.1. Specifically, L1 / L may be, for example, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, or 0.3, and may be within the range of any two of the values ​​exemplified here.

[0017] An opening section 6 is provided in the upper horizontal seal section 4. The opening section 6 is a part processed to facilitate the opening of the packaging bag 1, and is, for example, a part in which the film 2 has already been cut (e.g., a cut, a notch) or a part in which the film 2 has been processed to make it easier to cut (e.g., a half-cut, a perforation). If the opening section 6 is the former, there is a risk that the film 2 may be torn unexpectedly at the opening section 6, so it is preferable that the opening section 6 is the latter, and since perforations can be easily formed, it is even more preferable that the opening section 6 is a perforation.

[0018] In the upper horizontal seal portion 4, on the left side in the left - right direction of the opening portion 6 (that is, the central side in the left - right direction of the packaging bag 1, hereinafter also simply referred to as the central side), an unsealed portion 9 that is not heat - sealed is formed at a position in the direction in which the opening portion 6 extends. By forming the unsealed portion 9 at a position in the direction in which the opening portion 6 extends in this way, when opening from the opening portion 6, the opening is stopped at the central - side end portion 9a of the unsealed portion 9, and it becomes possible to limit the size of the opening. It is preferable that the opening portion 6 and the unsealed portion 9 are separated. By separating the opening portion 6 and the unsealed portion 9 in this way, when an external impact or the like is applied to the packaging bag 1, it is possible to prevent the vicinity of the opening portion 6 of the upper horizontal seal portion 4 from being damaged and the contents from leaking out.

[0019] If the length of the opening portion 6 in the left - right direction is L3 and the length of the unsealed portion 9 in the left - right direction is L4, it is preferable that L3 / 3 is 0.7 - 1.2. Specifically, for L3 / L4, for example, it is 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and it may also be within the range between any two of the numerical values exemplified here.

[0020] The longitudinal seal portion 7 may be provided on the entire folding portion 8. However, as the area of the longitudinal seal portion 7 increases, there is a problem that the time required for heat - sealing to form the longitudinal seal portion 7 becomes longer. Therefore, it is preferable that the longitudinal seal portion 7 is provided on a part of the folding portion 8. If the length of the longitudinal seal portion 7 in the left - right direction is L2, it is preferable that L2 / L1 is 1.0 or less, for example, 0.1 - 1.0. Specifically, for example, it is 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, and it may also be within the range between any two of the numerical values exemplified here. Note that the entire folding portion 8 may be heat - sealed in the left - right direction so that L2 / L1 becomes 1.0. The length L2 of the longitudinal seal portion 7 in the left - right direction is preferably 30 mm or less.

[0021] The film 2 is preferably a laminated film having a base layer and a sealant layer, and more preferably an adhesive layer is provided between the base layer and the sealant layer. In this embodiment, as an example, a five-layer structure is provided in which a base layer is sandwiched between sealant layers, and an adhesive layer is provided between the base layer and the sealant layer. A sealed portion is formed by heat sealing the sealant layers together. In this case, the sealant layer on the inside of the packaging bag 1 and the sealant layer on the outside may be made of different materials.

[0022] The sealant layer can be formed from a resin with excellent heat-sealing properties. For example, the sealant layer can be made from polyethylene (e.g., linear low-density polyethylene). The film constituting the sealant layer is preferably one that has straight-line cut properties in the longitudinal sealing direction.

[0023] Furthermore, the sealant layer may be composed of a mixture of multiple resins. In particular, by combining resins with low compatibility, easy-peel properties can be imparted. Specifically, the following combination of resin composition A and resin composition B can be considered.

[0024] Resin composition A: A resin composition whose main component is at least one selected from the group consisting of linear low-density polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer, ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer, ethylene-methyl methacrylate copolymer, ethylene-methyl acrylate copolymer, and ionomers thereof. Resin composition B: A resin composition whose main component is polypropylene or polybutylene.

[0025] The base layer is made of a material that has excellent strength and high impact resistance. Examples of materials used for the base layer include polyamide (nylon), polyolefin, and polyethylene. The adhesive layer is a layer for bonding the base layer and the sealant layer together, and examples of materials used for the adhesive layer include polyethylene.

[0026] The polyamide in the base layer preferably contains an aromatic polyamide. This is because the base layer has linear cut properties in the longitudinal sealing direction and excellent barrier properties. There are no particular restrictions on the aromatic polyamide, but resins containing 70 mol% or more of polyamide structural units consisting of xylylenediamine and α,ω aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having 6 to 12 carbon atoms in the molecular chain can be used.

[0027] Specifically, examples include homopolymers such as polymetaxylylene adipamide, polymetaxylylene pimelamide, polymetaxylylene azeramide, polyparaxylylene azeramide, and polyparaxylylene decanamide, as well as copolymers such as metaxylylene / paraxylylene adipamide copolymer, metaxylylene / paraxylylene pimelamide copolymer, metaxylylene / paraxylylene azeramide copolymer, and metaxylylene / paraxylylene sepacamid copolymer. However, polymetaxylylene adipamide (hereinafter referred to as "MXD6") is preferred because it has excellent basic properties such as strength and gas barrier properties, and is relatively easy to obtain industrially.

[0028] When bags are made and filled using film 2, the base layer does not come into contact with the contents, while the sealant layer does. For this reason, it is preferable that the materials constituting the sealant are additive-free in order to suppress the migration of additives to the contents. In particular, if the contents are subject to the "Ministerial Ordinance Concerning Standards for Ingredients of Milk and Dairy Products," such as milk, the technical significance of making the materials constituting the sealant layer additive-free is significant. On the other hand, additives such as softeners may be added to the base layer for purposes such as improving the flexibility of film 2.

[0029] Furthermore, it is preferable that at least one of the base layer and the sealant layer has straight-cut properties. This is because it makes it easier to tear the film 2 in a straight line. The thickness of the sealant layer is preferably at least twice the thickness of the base layer and at least half the total thickness of the film 2.

[0030] Film 2 can be formed by laminating a substrate layer with a thickness of 10 μm to 20 μm, for example 15 μm, an adhesive layer with a thickness of 10 μm to 30 μm, for example 20 μm, and a sealant layer with a thickness of 30 μm to 50 μm, for example 40 μm, resulting in film 2 typically having a thickness of 50 μm to 100 μm.

[0031] 2. Variations Figure 2 shows a modified packaging bag 1. In this modified example, the non-seal portion 9 formed on the central side of the opening portion 6 extends to the side edge 1a of the packaging bag 1. With this configuration, when the bag is opened from the opening portion 6, the opening is stopped at the side edge 8a of the gusset portion 8, limiting the size of the opening.

[0032] 3. Method for manufacturing film 2 Figure 3 illustrates the inflation molding process used to obtain the film 2 used in the multi-layer bag of the present invention. In Figure 3, 30 is an extruder for co-extrusion molding, and 31 is an inflation die. Multiple molten resins extruded from the extruder 30 through the die 31 into a tubular shape are inflated by air supplied from the air supply pipe 32 as they are pulled up vertically. The inflated molten resin is air-cooled by the air-cooling air ring 34, passes through the guide roller 35, guide plate 38, and pinch roll 37 in that order, is flattened, and wound onto the winding device 33 to obtain a roll of raw material F in which the tubular film is wound in a flattened shape. Therefore, in the bag-making and filling method described below, the roll of raw material F is unwound and the film 2 is supplied. In this embodiment, by flattening the tubular film, a film 2 is obtained in which an outer film and an inner film are laminated, with both edges in the width direction connected. The outer film and the inner film are the outer and inner films of the roll of raw material F, respectively. The multiple-layered film 2 may be manufactured by another method, for example, by laminating and pressing together multiple independent films.

[0033] Thus, the film 2 in this embodiment is formed by inflation molding of a tubular parison extruded by co-extrusion molding and does not include a stretching process. Therefore, a film with a low tensile elastic modulus is formed. Here, in this embodiment, the blow ratio during inflation molding is increased and the extrusion speed is set low.

[0034] Specifically, the blow ratio is preferably 1.0 or more, more preferably 1.5 or more. The take-up speed is preferably 100 m / min or less, more preferably 60 m / min or less. By setting in this way, regarding the tensile elastic modulus Ve in the longitudinal direction which is the longitudinal seal direction of the film 2 and the tensile elastic modulus He in the transverse direction which is the transverse seal direction, the relationship of Ve < He is satisfied. By forming the film 2 under such conditions, when opening the packaging bag 1 at the opening 6 provided in the upper transverse seal portion 4, it is possible to prevent the film 2 from stretching and becoming difficult to open. Note that the upper limit value of the tensile elastic modulus He in the transverse direction of the film is preferably 1000 MPa. Regarding such a film with a low (i.e., soft) tensile elastic modulus, since the film may stretch during opening, the effects of the present invention can be remarkably obtained.

[0035] The value of He - Ve is preferably 1 MPa or more, more preferably 3 MPa or more. This value is, for example, from 1 to 100 MPa, and specifically, for example, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 MPa, and may be within the range between any two of the values exemplified here or any value or more. He and Ve are each, for example, from 300 to 1000 MPa, and specifically, for example, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950, 1000 MPa, and may be within the range between any two of the values exemplified here.

[0036] 4. Bag-making and filling method Next, a bag-making and filling method using film 2 will be described with reference to Figure 4. This method can be implemented using a bag-making and filling system 100 having a sterilization device 13, a drying device 17, and a bag-making and filling device 18. The bag-making and filling method of this embodiment comprises a sterilization step, a drying step, and a bag-making and filling step. Each step will be described in detail below.

[0037] 4-1. Sterilization process The sterilization process can be carried out using the sterilization device 13. In the sterilization process, the film 2 unwound from the roll of raw material F is brought into contact with a disinfectant to sterilize the film 2.

[0038] Specifically, the film 2, first unwound from the roll of raw material F, is guided to the sterilization device 13 via roller 14a. Sensors 119 are placed along the path from the roll of raw material F to the sterilization device 13 to detect registration marks printed on the film 2 at regular intervals along its length, enabling the feeding of a fixed length of film 2 onto the trajectory of the bag-making and filling system 100 at regular time intervals. Alternatively, a lateral sealing machine may be placed between the roll of raw material F and the sterilization device 13 to laterally seal the longitudinal end of the film 2 (the direction in which the film flows). On the other hand, the film 2 may be installed in the bag-making and filling system 100 so that its longitudinal end does not come into contact with the disinfectant. In this case, the lateral sealing machine between the roll of raw material F and the sterilization device 13 is unnecessary.

[0039] The sterilization device 13 is a device capable of sterilizing the film 2, and may sterilize the film 2 by immersing it in a sterilization solution 13a, which is a liquid containing a disinfectant, or by bringing the film 2 into contact with a mist or gas of a disinfectant. Hydrogen peroxide is an example of a disinfectant. Inside the sterilization device 13, the film 2 is guided by rollers 14b and 14c and moves toward the drying device 17.

[0040] After the sterilization process and before the bag-making and filling process, a crimping process is performed to crimp the film 2. Specifically, this process can be carried out by sandwiching the film 2 between a pair of crimping members (e.g., rollers) 15. Performing the crimping process can reduce the occurrence of defects during bag making. In this embodiment, a pair of crimping members 15 are provided in two locations, but they may be provided in one location or three or more locations.

[0041] 4-2.Drying process A drying process is performed after the sterilization process and before the bag-making and filling process. By performing this process, even if moisture or disinfectant adheres to the film 2 during the sterilization process, it is possible to suppress the unintended inclusion of moisture or disinfectant into the packaging bag 1.

[0042] In this embodiment, the drying process is performed by a blowing device 16 and a drying device 17. The blowing device 16 removes water droplets from the surface of the film 2 by blowing air 16a onto the film 2. The blowing devices 16 are provided on both sides of the film 2, making it possible to remove water droplets from both sides of the film 2.

[0043] The internal space 17a of the drying apparatus 17 is at a higher temperature than the outside of the drying apparatus 17, so that the film 2 dries as it passes through the internal space 17a. The film 2 enters the internal space 17a through the inlet 17b, is guided by rollers 14d, 14e, and 14f within the internal space 17a, and exits the internal space 17a through the outlet 17c.

[0044] The film 2 that exits the drying apparatus 17 is guided to the former 112 by the roller 14g.

[0045] 4-3. Bag making and filling process The bag-making and filling process can be carried out using a bag-making and filling apparatus 18. In the bag-making and filling process, the contents W are filled into a cylindrical body 39 formed by heat-sealing the sterilized film 2 to close the lower end, and then the upper end of the cylindrical body 39 is heat-sealed to seal it. This process will be described in detail below.

[0046] <First step: Forming film 2 into a tube> As the film 2 passes through the former 112, it is curved into a cylindrical shape, and the edges on both sides of the curved tip overlap. A girdle portion 8 is formed at the overlapping portion.

[0047] <Second step of forming the vertical seal portion 7> Next, the gusset portion 8 of the film 2 is heat-sealed by the vertical sealing machine 113 to form the vertical sealed portion 7. The vertical sealing machine 113 is equipped with a pair of sealing bars, and heat-seals the gusset portion 8 by clamping it with the pair of sealing bars for a predetermined time in time with the film 2 moving at regular intervals.

[0048] <Third step: Forming the lower lateral seal portion 5> Next, the openable and closable squeezing roll 115 is closed to squeeze the cylindrical body 39 formed from the film 2. This flattens the cylindrical body 39. Then, a predetermined position on the flattened cylindrical body 39 is heat-sealed by the horizontal sealing machine 116 to form the lower horizontal seal portion 5. The horizontal sealing machine 116 is equipped with a pair of sealing bars, and heat-seals by clamping the predetermined position with the pair of sealing bars for a predetermined time. This closes the lower end of the cylindrical body 39.

[0049] <Four steps for filling the contents> Next, after opening the cutting roll 115, a predetermined amount of contents W is put into the hopper 111 and filled into the cylindrical body 39.

[0050] <Fifth step: Forming the upper lateral seal portion 4> Next, by rotating the feed roll 114, the cylindrical body 39 and the film 2 that follows it are fed out to a predetermined length along with the packaging bag 1 before separation. The pair of sealing bars of the horizontal sealing machine 116 are closed for a predetermined time and heat-sealed at a predetermined position to form the upper horizontal seal portion 4, sealing the packaging bag 1, and also to form the lower horizontal seal portion 5 of the next packaging bag located upstream on the track connected thereto. In this process, an opening portion 6 is formed in the formed upper horizontal seal portion 4. Note that the opening portion 6 may be formed simultaneously with the sixth step of cutting the boundary between the lower horizontal seal portion 5 and the upper horizontal seal portion 4 that is continuous therewith.

[0051] <Step 6: Cutting the boundary line of the continuous bag> The press / cutter 118 is closed to clamp the lower horizontal seal portion 5 and the upper horizontal seal portion 4 that are continuous with it on the lower side of the packaging bag 1 before separation, and the cutter blade 118a cuts the boundary between the two, causing the packaging bag 1 to fall onto the conveyor 130. This produces a packaging bag 1 filled with contents W.

[0052] 5. Examples Figure 5 shows the longitudinal tensile modulus Ve and transverse tensile modulus He for packaging bag 1 of the example and packaging bag of the comparative example (units are MPa). The packaging bags of the example and comparative example were manufactured using the method described in "3. Method for manufacturing film 2," and Ve and He were changed by changing the blow ratio. The tensile modulus was determined by performing a tensile test in accordance with JIS K 7127. The test temperature was 23.5°C, the tensile test speed was 50 mm / min, and the dumbbell shape for the test was type 5. As shown in Figure 5, the relationship Ve < He is satisfied for Examples 1 to 5. In contrast, in the example shown, Ve > He is satisfied. Experiments were conducted to determine whether these packaging bags of the example and comparative example could be easily opened.

[0053] When the subjects opened the packaging bags 1 of Examples 1 to 5, they were able to easily open them at the opening section 6. In contrast, with the bags shown in the comparative examples, the film around the opening section stretched instead of tearing, making it difficult for the subjects to easily open them.

[0054] 6. Other Embodiments The layer configuration of film 2 can be changed as appropriate. In the above embodiment, film 2 has a five-layer configuration including the adhesive layer, but it may have fewer or more layers. The sealing method of the vertical seal portion 7 of the packaging bag 1 can be changed as appropriate. In the above embodiment, a gusseted gusset portion 8 is formed, but an envelope-style seal may also be used. The sterilization and drying processes can be omitted if they are not necessary. Furthermore, the drying process may be performed using only one of the blowing device 16 or the drying device 17, or by natural drying. In the above embodiment, the opening portion is formed in the upper lateral seal portion 4, but the embodiment is not limited to this. For example, an opening seal portion extending laterally may be provided between the upper lateral seal portion 4 and the lower lateral seal portion 5 in the vertical direction, and the opening portion may be provided in the opening seal portion.
