Abstract
A belt-forming package, intended for use in packaging radiographic dental films is presented. The package is characterized in that the film materials are separately packed in such a way that taking one film packet out of the belt is facilitated by the provision of zones of less mechanical strength at the circumference of each separate packet. Opening of the separate packets puts no problems as a lip-like portion having an asymmetric wave-type form is overlappingly sealed to another portion so that the rupturing of the seal between both portions, causing the opening of the concerning separate packet is facilitated.
Claims9
A continuous belt package for a multiplicity of sheet-like materials from which the sheet-like materials can be removed one by one without disrupting the belt continuity, comprising a continuous supporting web of a width somewhat exceeding the material width, a top web constituted of two continuous strips arranged in overlapping relation along their mutually inner edges and having an overall width generally equal to said supporting web, a multiplicity of said materials disposed in lengthwise spaced relation between said webs, the margins of said webs around the periphery of the individual materials being sealed together, at least one of said webs having a zone of weakness around the material periphery to permit the same to be separated from the remainder of the belt package for removal of the individual materials therefrom.
