Abstract
A foil bag has its upper end provided with a seam weld (14) interconnecting all of the bag walls and having the handle ledge (16a) of a handle (16) welded to its outer side. The handle (16) is made from a flexible foil material. In a foil bag line consisting of successive foil bags (12), the handle (16) of one respective foil bag overlaps the adjacent foil bag. The handles consist of a bendable foil material so that the foil bag line can be guided about processing and pressure rollers. The handles (16) are welded to seam welds (14) connecting the two side walls.
Claims8
A bag line comprising a generally tubular body having opposite sides and opposite ends and a medial portion between said opposite ends;
- said tubular body further being defined by a side gusset at each of said opposite sides, a front panel and a rear panel;
- each side gusset being defined by a pair of gusset panels joined to each other along a first line and joined to said front and rear panels at respective second and third lines;
- said tubular body being of a generally flattened configuration with said pairs of gusset panels being sandwiched between said front and rear panels;
- said first lines of said opposite side gussets being closer to each other than said second and third lines of said opposite side gussets whereby said side gussets each open in a generally outward direction during opening of said tubular body from its generally flattened configuration;
- a handle transversing said medial portion generally between said opposite ends;
- means for transversely welding said handle to one of said front and rear panels at said medial portion and for transversely welding each pair of gusset panels to each other and one each to said front and rear panels at said medial portion and portions of said front and rear panels between said gusset panels to each other, and an end of each tubular body adjacent a handle of an adjacent tubular body defining a filling opening of each adjacent tubular body.

- said first edge portions of said opposite side gussets being closer to each other than said second and third edge portions of said opposite side gussets whereby said side gussets each open in a generally outward direct during opening of said tubular body from its generally fattened configuration;
- a handle substantially transversing said medial portion generally between said opposite ends;
- means for transversely welding said handle to one of said front and rear panels at said medial portion and for transversely welding each pair of gusset panels to each other and one each to said front and rear panels at said medial portion and portions of said front and rear panels between said gusset panels to each other, and an end of each tubular body adjacent a handle of an adjacent tubular body defining a filling opening of each adjacent tubular body.
