Abstract

There is proposed a non-self supporting type flexible package bag provided with a film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle, which is excellent in not only the non-return function and liquid cutting properties but also the pouring property of a liquid packed material as a filling material (packed material in the bag can be poured smoothly until the end). In the flexible package bag provided with the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle protruding from a side portion, corner portion or top portion of the package bag body, a coating layer made from a water-repellent material or an oil-repellent material is provided on an outer surface of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle, while a wet-treated layer is provided on an inner face of a pouring path in the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle.

Claims (7)

1. A liquid-filled packaging structure comprising a non-self supporting type liquid-filled packaging body formed by deaeration-packing of at least one of a liquid and a viscous packing material into a non-self supporting type flexible package bag comprised of a package bag body formed by seal-joining front-side and rear-side soft laminate films and a film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle which is protruded from any position of a side portion, a corner portion and a top portion of the package bag body having a non-return function that blocks penetration of air generated by a closing action between mutual inner surfaces of the soft plastic films when the packing bag body is tilted to pour a liquid packing material and the pouring path is rendered into a wet state by a liquid material passing through the path to attach the liquid packing material to the inner surface of the pouring path and provided on an outer surface with a coating layer made from at least one of a water-repellant material and an oil-repellant material and on an inner surface of a predetermined opening position and a vicinity of the predetermined opening position within a portion of a pouring path with a wet-treated layer, and a spiry projection that prevents dripping of liquid, the spiry projection provided at a position intermediate a predetermined opening position of a lower edge portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle and the base end portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle, and a self-supporting type outer cylindrical flexible package bag made of a soft laminate film for housing the non-self supporting type liquid-filled packaging body which is provided with tear-guide perforations at one-side portion thereof for opening the nozzle to expose a tip portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle, and

a horizontal seal portion provided at an upper end part of the non-self supporting type liquid-filled packaging body being fused to an upper end portion of the self-supporting type outer cylindrical flexible package bag such that the non-self supporting type liquid-filled packaging body is housed and supported within the self-supporting type outer cylindrical flexible package bag in a suspended state.

2. The liquid-filled packaging structure according to claim 1 , wherein the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle is formed by fusing a pair of overlapping soft plastic films to each other at a peripheral edge portion other than a portion corresponding to a base end portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle so as to constitute a central portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle as a pouring path and is integrally united with the main body of the package bag.

3. The liquid-filled packaging structure according to claim 1 , wherein the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle is formed by fusing a pair of overlapping soft plastic films to each other at a peripheral edge portion other than a portion corresponding to a base end portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle so as to constitute a central portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle as a pouring path and fusion-joining the base end portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle to a side portion of the main body of the package bag.

4. The liquid-filled packaging structure according to claim 1 , wherein at the base end portion of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle, opposite sealant layers of the overlapping soft plastic films are temporarily fused at a lower temperature to temporarily seal the inner surface of the pouring path.

5. A liquid-filled packaging structure according to claim 1 , wherein the coating layer made from at least one of the water-repellent material and the oil-repellent material is arranged at least in the predetermined opening position of the film-shaped one-way pouring nozzle and a vicinity of the predetermined opening position.

6. The liquid-filled packaging structure according to claim 1 , wherein the non-self supporting liquid-filled packaging body is housed and kept in the self-supporting type outer package bag at a suspended state by fusing a horizontal seal portion at an upper end part of the packaging body to an upper end portion of the outer package bag.
