Resealable bag for filling with food product (s) and method
A reclosable bag for filling with at least one food product. The reclosable bag generally includes at least one sheet of web material having at least two areas of structural weakness. At least one fold structure is located between and defined by the two areas of structural weakness. An opening is located generally opposite the fold structure. The reclosable bag further includes a reclosable fastener structure having an integral skirt structure of skirt web material extending therefrom. The integral skirt structure includes a distal margin. The distal margin is coupled to the web material at, at least one location between the areas of structural weakness and the opening. The reclosable fastener structure extends past the areas of structural weakness and into the fold structure. The reclosable bag capable of being filled with at least one food product through the opening.
1. A reclosable bag for filling with at least one food product, said reclosable bag comprising:
at least one sheet of web material including at least two areas of structural weakness, having at least one fold structure located between and defined by said two areas of structural weakness, and an opening located generally opposite said fold structure;
a reclosable fastener structure including a skirt structure of skirt web material extending therefrom;
said skirt structure including a distal margin;
said distal margin being coupled to said web material at, at least one location between said areas of structural weakness and said opening;
said reclosable fastener structure extending past said areas of structural weakness and into said fold structure;
said reclosable bag capable of being filled with at least one food product through said opening; and
wherein said areas of structural weakness extend nonlinearly across a predetermined dimension of said sheet of said web material.
2. The reclosable bag of claim 1 wherein the predetermined dimension is width.
3. The reclosable bag of claim 1 wherein the predetermined dimension is length.
4. A reclosable bag for filling with at least one food product, said reclosable bag comprising:
at least one sheet of web material having a propensity to tear along at last two predetermined tear areas;
having at least one fold structure located between and defined by said two tear areas, and an opening located generally opposite said fold structure;
a reclosable fastener structure including a skirt structure of skirt web material extending therefrom;
said skirt structure including a distal margin;
said distal margin being coupled to said web material at, at least one location between said two tear areas and said opening;
said reclosable fastener structure extending past said two tear areas and into said fold structure;
said reclosable bag capable of being filled with at least one food product through said opening; and
wherein said tear areas extend nonlinearly across a predetermined dimension of said sheet of said web material.
5. The reclosable bag of claim 4 wherein the predetermined dimension is width.
6. The reclosable bag of claim 4 wherein the predetermined dimension is length.
