Abstract
A reclosable pouch comprises a body portion having first and second opposing bag walls, wherein each bag wall has an internal side. First and second closure mechanisms are disposed on the internal sides of the first and second bag walls, wherein the closure mechanisms are parallel and spaced between about 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) and 0.3 inch (7.62 mm) apart. Further, the first closure mechanism may have a first closure characteristic and the second closure mechanism may have a second closure characteristic different than the first closure characteristic.

A reclosable pouch, comprising:
- a body portion having first and second opposing bag walls, wherein each bag wall has an internal side;
- and
- first and second closure mechanisms disposed on the internal sides of the first and second bag walls wherein the closure mechanisms are parallel and spaced between 0.15 inch (3.81 mm) and 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) apart.
A reclosable pouch, comprising:
- a body portion having first and second opposing bag walls, wherein each bag wall has an internal side;
- and
- first and second closure mechanisms disposed on the internal sides of the first and second bag walls wherein the closure mechanisms are parallel and spaced between 0.15 inch (3.81 mm) and 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) apart;
- wherein the first closure mechanism includes a level of deformation to provide a clicking feel or a clicking sound during opening or closing of the first closure mechanism and further provides a first overall resistance against opening forces and the second closure mechanism provides a second overall resistance against opening forces wherein the second overall resistance is greater than the first overall resistance.
A reclosable pouch, comprising:
- a body portion having first and second opposing bag walls, wherein each bag wall has an internal side;
- and
- first and second spaced closure mechanisms disposed on the internal sides of the first and second bag walls wherein the closure mechanisms are parallel and spaced between 0.15 inch (3.81 mm) and 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) apart;
- wherein the first closure mechanism includes a level of deformation to provide a clicking feel or a clicking sound during opening or closing of the first closure mechanism and further provides male and female closure portions disposed on the first and second bag walls, respectively, and the second closure mechanism has male and female closure portions disposed on the second and first bag walls, respectively.
A reclosable pouch, comprising
- a body portion having first and second opposing bag walls, wherein each bag wall has an internal side;
- first and second spaced closure mechanisms disposed on the internal sides of the first and second bag walls wherein the closure mechanisms are parallel and spaced between 0.15 inch (3.81 mm) and 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) apart;
- wherein the first closure mechanism has male and female closure portions disposed on the first and second bag walls, respectively, and the second closure mechanism has male and female closure portions disposed on the second and first bag walls, respectively;
- and
- a member disposed between the closure mechanisms on one of the first and second bag walls.
