Bag Cartridge with Anti-Torque Collar

a bag cartridge and anti-torque technology, applied in the field of baginbox (bib) carton packaging, can solve the problems of collapsed jerribox(TM) containers, difficulty in assembly, erection and contents filling of such jerribox(TM) containers, and general incompatibility between adhesive and thin wall bags

Benefits of technology

[0005]Particular BIB concerns are carton case assembly erection, bag (liner) insertion, inflation and fill. BIB offers the prospect of collapse format, both before and after use, with attendant savings in so-called in-bound logistics and post-usage disposal.
[0133]Overall a bag cartridge offers low fabrication and assembly costs—competitive with conventional BIB structures and rigid walled jerrycans.

Problems solved by technology

However, adhesive and thin wall bags are generally incompatible—and this has proved a deterrent quality control concern in BIB adoption.
Challenges arises in assembly, erection and contents fill of such JERRIBOX(™) containers.
Thus conventional carton case erectors cannot handle collapsed JERRIBOX(™) containers without some modification.

Embodiment Construction

[0136]There now follows a description of some particular embodiments of a bag cartridge with anti-toque profile according to the invention, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic and schematic drawings, in which:

[0137]Bag Cartridge

[0138]FIGS. 1A through 1C show progressive deployment stages for a bag cartridge of the invention from initial rolled and taped format to fully deployed or at least unrolled;

[0139]NB . . . full bag erection is upon contents fill, with optional preparatory (air) pulse inflation—after bag insertion in a carton, as reflected in FIG. 3C;

[0140]FIG. 1D shows an alternative collapse rolled bag format about a bag neck axis and temporary containment in an enclosure, wrap, tie collar or sheath;

[0141]NB . . . A particular example would be a paper bag, burstable upon a preparatory air pulse applied through the bag neck for bag deployment.

[0142]FIGS. 2A and 2B show collar fitment of a bag cartridge of FIGS. 1A-1C to an erect pre-assembl...

Abstract

A collapsed bag cartridge (20) for Bag-in-Box (BIB) carton packaging, is configured for installation as a self-contained module in an aperture (24) in a pre-assembled carton wall; the bag cartridge features a collapsed bag in a compact folded format (21) with a locating and retention collar (12) upon a bag neck (13) of complementary profile to the carton aperture; with complementary inter-fitting ribs and slots (18), in collar aperture rim upstand (17) and bag neck (13) for closure anti-torque action.

Description

[0001]This invention relates to so-called Bag-In-Box (BIB) carton packaging suitable for diverse flowable materials, such as liquids, gels, granules, pellets, capsules, sachets, chunks, crystals, flakes or powders.[0002]Terminology—BIB[0003]The term BIB is used herein for convenience to embrace packaging with inner and outer structures of different materials. A prime category features a relatively soft deformable inner liner or bag and a relatively stiff, hard outer box or carton. The inner structure is impermeable and sealable for contents enclosure—whilst the outer structure need not be, but rather serves as a protective outer cover.[0004]Fundamentally, inner and outer structures are made separately and independently by different processes and brought together for contents fill. This contrasts with, say, continuous sealed tube carton technology, such as represented by TETRAPAK™[0005]Particular BIB concerns are carton case assembly erection, bag (liner) insertion, inflation and fil...
