Packaging Machine For Forming Free-Standing Pouches

US Patent:
5830118, Nov 3, 1998
Filed:
Sep 15, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/529150
Inventors:
John G. Nicholson - Sarasota FL
Assignee:
Klockner Bartelt, Inc. - Sarasota FL
International Classification:
B31B 4904
US Classification:
493196
Abstract:
Longitudinally spaced pairs of laterally spaced openings are formed in a web of material prior to the web being folded into a pouch having a gusset bottom, the holes enabling the side panels of each pouch to be heat-sealed directly together at the side margins of the pouch and in the area of the gussets. To enable the lateral spacing between the openings of each pair to be easily changed and to enable the openings to be located extremely close to the longitudinal centerline of the web, the openings are formed by punches supported by separate punch frames which may be independently adjusted in a direction laterally of the web. The punch frames also are adjustable relative to one another in a direction longitudinally of the web in order to enable the machine to make pouches of various widths.
