Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a fitting device, particularly a fitting device that is less prone to delamination and less prone to curling after molding, and a bag body with the fitting device using the same. [Background technology]

[0002] In various fields such as food, pharmaceuticals, and general merchandise, bags with fasteners are widely used, in which a fastener is attached to the inner surface near the opening of the bag body to seal the opening in an openable and closable manner. The fasteners must be able to adhere to the bag in a way that does not damage the bag's appearance during the bag-making process. Conventional fasteners use a base material containing a high-hardness resin layer to suppress wrinkles that occur during bag-making and spoil the appearance. Patent Document 1 discloses a fitting device having a three-layer base material comprising a surface layer and a back layer made of polyethylene or polypropylene resin film, and an intermediate layer made of nylon or polyester resin film.

[0009] [Fitting device] The fitting device of the present invention will be described below with reference to an example shown in the drawings. Note that the dimensions and other specifications shown in the following description are examples only, and the present invention is not necessarily limited to them. It can be modified as appropriate without altering its essence.

[0010] As shown in Figure 1, the fitting device 1 of an example embodiment comprises a male fitting member 10 having a male fitting portion 12 provided along the longitudinal direction on the surface 11a of a strip-shaped first base material 11, and a female fitting member 20 having a female fitting portion 22 provided along the longitudinal direction on the surface 21a of a strip-shaped second base material 21.

[0011] The male fitting portion 12 shown in Figure 2 is an example that comprises a stem 12a rising from the surface 11a of the first base material 11, which is the surface facing the second base material 21, and a head 12b provided at the tip of the stem 12a, which is larger than the stem 12a and has a substantially semicircular cross-section. The female fitting portion 22 comprises a pair of arm portions 22a, 22b rising in an arc shape in cross-section from the surface 21a of the second base material 21, which is the surface facing the first base material 11, and a recess 22c is formed inside these arm portions 22a, 22b. The male fitting portion 12 and the female fitting portion 22 are detachably fitted together by the head portion 12b of the male fitting portion 12 fitting into the recess 22c of the female fitting portion 22. The configuration of the male fitting portion 12 and the female fitting portion 22 is not limited to the configuration shown in Figure 2, as long as they are detachably fitted together.

From the standpoint of sufficient flexibility, the tensile stress is preferably 30 N / mm or less, more preferably 25 N / mm or less, and even more preferably 20 N / mm or less.

[0056] (Tensile stress measurement) A test piece with a longitudinal length of 120 mm is cut from the male fitting member, and both ends of the test piece in the longitudinal direction are gripped in a tensile testing machine. A tensile test is performed under the conditions of a chuck distance of 50 mm and a test speed of 1 mm / min, and the tensile stress (N / mm) is determined by dividing the test force (N) at 2% elongation by the amount of elongation (mm).

[0057] (Manufacturing method) The method for manufacturing the fitting device 1 is not particularly limited, except that the materials used for the first and second base materials and the thickness of each layer are adjusted to satisfy requirements (1) to (3), and known methods can be used. For example, one method involves preparing resin materials for forming the main layer, intermediate layer, and sealing layer by melt-kneading or the like, and then co-extruding them using an extruder equipped with a composite shaped die for forming a male or female fitting member containing a three-layer substrate.

[0058] Methods for mixing materials include dry mixing using a super mixer, Henschel mixer, etc. One method of melt-mixing involves supplying the raw materials to a melt-mixing machine such as a single-screw extruder, twin-screw extruder, Banbury mixer, kneader, or mixing rolls, and then melt-mixing the materials. Molding methods include extrusion molding, injection molding, inflation molding, and vacuum forming.

[0059] Furthermore, the fitting device of the present invention is not limited to the fitting device 1 described above. For example, the shapes of the male and female mating parts are not limited to the shapes exemplified in Figures 1 and 2, and any known shapes can be adopted without restriction. The configurations of the first and second substrates may be different, as long as each satisfies requirements (1) to (3).

[0060] [Bag with interlocking mechanism] The bag with a fitting of the present invention is a bag with a fitting that is equipped with the fitting of the present invention. The bag with a fitting of the present invention can adopt known embodiments other than being equipped with the fitting of the present invention. The following describes a bag with a fitting device, which is an example of an embodiment.

[0061] The example of the fitted bag 100 shown in Figure 7 (hereinafter also simply referred to as "bag 100") comprises a bag body 50 for containing contents and a fitted device 1 attached to the inner surface of the upper part inside the bag body 50.

[0062] The bag body 50 has a rectangular shape when viewed from the front. The fitting device 1 is provided on the inner surface of the upper side of the bag body 50, extending in the direction of the shorter side of the bag body 50. Note that the shape of the bag body 50 is not limited to a rectangle.

[0063] The bag body 50 is sealed with contents (not shown) enclosed inside. The bag body 50 is obtained by overlapping a first film material 52 and a second film material 54 and heat-sealing all four peripheral edges 56. At the peripheral edges 56, both ends of the fitting device 1 are heat-sealed together with the first film material 52 and the second film material 54.

[0064] The first film material 52 and the second film material 54 can be used to weld the fitting device 1 to the film material by heat sealing, and a laminated film having at least a sealant layer and a base material layer on the inner side is preferred.

[0065] Examples of substrate layers in laminated films include linear low-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, polyester, biaxially oriented nylon, and biaxially oriented polypropylene. Examples of sealant layers in laminated films include linear low-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, unoriented polypropylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and ionomer. Functional layers such as barrier layers may also be provided in the laminated film. Furthermore, the first film material 52 and the second film material 54 may be single-layer films consisting only of a sealant layer.

[0066] The bag body 50 has a cutting guide line 58 provided on the upper side of the fitting device 1, along the fitting device 1. The cutting guide line 58 is a linearly processed portion of the bag body 50 that assists in cutting. Examples of cutting guide lines 58 include weakening lines provided in the cutting guide line 58 portions of the first film material 52 and the second film material 54. Weakening lines can be formed by providing a portion of the film material that is thinner than the surrounding area. In addition, weakening lines can also be formed by perforations or by rows of pores. Furthermore, the cutting guide line 58 is not limited to a weakening line, but may also be a line formed by printing or the like that indicates the position to be cut with scissors, a cutter, etc.

[0067] A notch 60 is formed at the end of the cutting guide line 58 in the peripheral edge 56. The shape of the notch 60 is not particularly limited, and a triangular or semicircular cutout can be used. Alternatively, the notch 60 may be a cut in the peripheral edge 56.

[0068] Figure 8 is a schematic perspective view showing the bag 100 opened. The bag 100 can be opened by cutting and removing the upper part of the bag body 50 along the cutting guide line 58 from the notch 60, thereby forming an opening 62 at the top. The opening 62 formed in the bag body 100 can be repeatedly opened and closed by attaching and detaching the male fitting member 10 and the female fitting member 20 of the fitting device 1.

The shapes and combinations of the constituent members shown in the above examples are merely examples, and can be modified in various ways based on design requirements, etc., without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

As resin material X-1 for forming the main layer, 40 parts by mass of LDPE1, 40 parts by mass of LLDPE1, and 20 parts by mass of LLDPE2 were melt-kneaded using an extruder with a diameter of 50 mm and an L / D ratio of 30 at a molding temperature of 170°C. LDPE4 was used as the resin material Y-1 for forming the sealing layer, and was melt-kneaded at a molding temperature of 170°C using an extruder with a diameter of 30 mm and an L / D ratio of 30. HDPE1 was used as the resin material Z-1 for forming the intermediate layer, and was melt-kneaded at a molding temperature of 190°C using an extruder with a diameter of 30 mm and an L / D ratio of 30. Resin materials X-1, Y-1, and Z-1 were introduced into a composite shaped die and extruded. The resulting material was then cooled and solidified in a cooling water bath to obtain a fitting with a tape width of 13 mm and a total thickness of 0.15 mm for both the first and second base materials. In both the first and second substrates, the thickness of the main layer was set to 43.5 μm, the thickness of the intermediate layer to 81.0 μm, and the thickness of the sealing layer to 25.5 μm, with the ratio of the thicknesses of each layer being main layer / intermediate layer / sealing layer = 29 / 54 / 17.
