Bag roll cassette and method of use
There is disclosed a bag having a tubular body with a top open end and a bottom closed end. The tubular body has a larger open diameter at the top open end. The tubular body narrows into a narrower open diameter adjacent to a bottom closed end. The tubular body in a flattened two-fold condition has a pair of side edges extending from a top edge to a bottom edge. The top edge delimits the top open end. The bottom edge delimits the bottom closed end. The pair of side edges are generally parallel to one another in a first portion adjacent to the top edge.
1. A bag configured for being hung to a tubular bag support of a disposal unit, the bag comprising
a tubular body with a top open end and a bottom closed end,
the tubular body having a larger open diameter D at the top open end, an interior of the tubular body narrowing into a narrower open diameter adjacent to a bottom closed end, and
the tubular body in a flattened two-fold condition having a pair of side edges extending from a top edge to a bottom edge, the top edge delimiting the top open end, the bottom edge delimiting the bottom closed end, the top edge, in the flattened two-fold condition, having a single straight edge extending from one of the side edges to the other of the side edges,
wherein the pair of side edges are generally parallel to one another, and
wherein the bottom edge, in the flattened two-fold condition, has a straight edge extending between the pair of side edges such that the tubular body has a rectangular shape in the flattened two-fold condition, at least one weld seam causing the narrowing in the interior of the tubular body.
2. The bag according to claim 1 , wherein a pair of the at least one weld seam causes the narrowing in the interior of the tubular body.
3. The bag according to claim 1 , wherein the tubular body is made of at least two layers of film.
4. The bag according to claim 3 , wherein at least one of the layers is an ethylene vinyl alcohol.
5. The bag according to claim 3 , wherein at least one of the layers is made of at least one of polyethylene, bioplastic, polyactic acid, starch-base, plant-base.
6. The bag according to claim 1 , wherein a relation between a flattened two-fold width WA of the larger open diameter D and a flattened two-fold width WC of the narrower open diameter is expressed as 0.60WA≤WC≤0.95WA.
7. The bag according to claim 1 , wherein the larger open diameter D defines a hooking section having a hooking section length, a disposal section including the narrowing to the bottom closed end having a disposal section length, the disposal section length being at least twice the hooking section length.
8. A bag roll comprising:
a plurality of the bag according to claim 1 , wherein the bags are connected end to end and from the bottom edge of a first of the bags in the bag roll, to the top edge of a second of the bags in the bag roll.
