Abstract
An article carrier bag, in particular of the fastfood takeaway type, the bag comprising a bottom and sides (F12, F13) defining inside walls bounding an inside storage space, and being characterized in that at least one gusset element (E1) in a folded state is fitted to and fastened on at least one inside wall of the sides (F12, F13) in two adjacent fastener zones that are separated by a frangible zone (F15) provided in association with at least one side (F12, F13), so as to be capable of bringing the gusset element (E1) into an unfolded state after breaking the frangible zone (F15).

An article carrier bag (B1;
- B2), in particular of the fastfood takeaway type, the bag comprising a bottom (F11;
- F21) and sides (F12, F13;
- F22, F23) defining inside walls bounding an inside storage space, and being characterized in that at least one gusset element (E1;
- E2) in a folded state is fitted to and fastened on at least one inside wall of the sides (F12, F13;
- F22, F23) in two adjacent fastener zones (Z14, Z15;
- Z24, Z25) that are separated by a frangible zone (F15;
- F25a;
- F25b) provided in association with at least one side (F12, F13;
- F22, F23), so as to be capable of bringing the gusset element (E1;
- E2) into an unfolded state after breaking the frangible zone (F15;
- F25a;
- F25b);
- wherein the frangible zone is formed in a side, the two adjacent fastener zones being provided on the side, respectively on either side of the frangible zone;
- and
- wherein the gusset element is made from a sheet presenting a width together with a length that corresponds to four times the width so as to define an alignment of four squares, each square being folded along one of its diagonals so as to define eight isosceles right triangles, two pairs of adjacent isosceles right triangles connected together via their points respectively forming the two gussets, while the other four isosceles right triangles form the four fastener flaps, the frangible zone having two frangible lines connected together at right angles at a junction point.

- E2) into an unfolded state after breaking the frangible zone (F15;
- F25a;
- F25b);
- wherein the frangible zone (F25a, F25b) is formed in a side (F23), the two adjacent fastener zones (Z24, Z25) being provided on the side (F23), respectively on either side of the frangible zone;
- wherein the gusset element (E2) comprises two gussets (S2), each between two fastener flaps (S24, S25) that extend adjacent to each other in the folded state and at right angles in the unfolded state;
- and
- wherein the two fastener flaps are in the form of isosceles right triangles.
