SAC AVEC CHALUMEAU

English Abstract

1Ø0.0- ABTRACT
"POUCH WITH STRAW" is a package for liquid, paste or jelly type
products. The pouch can have any size or shape. The material to
manufacture the pouch can be from plastic or paper product. The
straw has been incorporated with the pouch to guide the content of
the pouch out. The straw is sealed in the pouch when it is bieng
filled. The consumer opens the straw seal and the content of the
pouch will flow out through the straw, by tilting or squeezing the
pouch. The advantage of the straw in the package is that, the
material will only flow through the straw and the consumer will
just open the seal on the straw. It is easy to open the seal, it
is clean to pour the content of the pouch. And for drinks and
juices it is healthier to use a sealed straw.
This package can replace the existing packs of ketchups, jams,
mustard, syrops, soft drinks, juices and so on. Refer to figure #1
on page #1 of the drawings section for the "pouch with straw"
demonstration.

The "u" channel will be sealed vertically at intervals equal to the ~ `
pouchs width.The width of the seal will be few milimeters depending

~2.3.1.1-continued)
on the product and the "u" channel material. Each side of the seal
will form one side of the pouch and the middle of the seal
will be cut to separate the pouches. The width of the plastic roll
(or the higth of the "u" channel) is depend on the length of the
pouch to be manufactured.
The hight of the vertical seal will be slightly higher than the
hight of the material (product) to be poured in to the pouch.
While the "u" channel.is being pulled horizontally and being sealed
incrementally (vertically), the product will be poured in to the
