Application February 21, V1935, Serial No. 7,647
s claims.
My invention relates tov improvements in sandwich bags, and particularly to a bag of this character intended as a retainer to receive and hold a sandwich as made up and offered for sale, and
which is so constructed that individual portions of salt, pepper, or other condiments or seasonings, can be conveniently carried and will be readily accessible for use by each individual purchaser.
- An object of this invention is to provide a sandwich bag of simple and inexpensive construction, with which the receptacles for the condiment or seasoning material are readily associated during the manufacture and are readily removed for use.
Another object is to so construct the parts that specially designed and constructed bag and container structures will not be required, but the completed article is accomplished by use and combination and association, 'in correlated assembly, of parts now readily obtainable.
Still another object and purpose is to provide a. sandwich bag that has the sides or faces thereof disposed as flat areas, both when manufactured and when in use, so that pictorial illustrations, printing, and other matter can be readily afxed to or imprinted upon the bag and will be conveniently shown for ready viewing and reading, when the bag is in use.
With the above and other objects in view, which will be apparent to those skilled in the art, my invention includes certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts which will be hereinafter set forth in connection with 3the drawing and then pointed out in the claims.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a view in sideI elevation of a sandwich bag constructed in accordance with my invention.
A Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the bag distended as it will appear when open to receive' 5o The bag is preferably made of waxl paper or i other transparent or suitable sheet material, and is cut, shaped, folded and assembled to be of the type having bellows-like expanding sides. As shown, the body portion I is of substantially a 55 tubular form, preferably being seamed at one side, as at 2, and the side portions at 3 and 4 are folded in with a double or bellows-like fold, the lower ends of this folded portion being brought down within and being preferably se.-v cured by thebottom closing ap 5. Such bags 5 are now manufactured and are in use, and it will be appreciated that the exact construction, assembly, and securement of the parts is not a material feature of my invention, as various well known expedients can be resorted to. With the l0 v bag constructed in the manner set forth, the side bellows-like portions 3 and 4 are folded and doubled between the front and back faces 6 and 'I of the bag, and where the parts are held in closed relation by the bottom flap 5, or other Abot- 15 tom securement, the side portions 3 and Il are permanentlyv doubled within and between the forward and back sides 6 and 1.
vWith the above in mind, I provide one or more containers 8, which can be in the form of small 20 flat envelopes having the body portion 9 thereof closed by a ap I0, which containers are of such shape and size thatthey will t between one of the faces 6 or i and an intervening folded and doubled portion of the sides 3 or 4, substantially 25 as shown in Fig. 3. When the containers 8 are' tted in this relation, they can be readily retained against accidental or casual displacement by the use of clinched staples II and I2, by a drop or line of adhesive, by stitching inserted in 30 the same general location and position as the staples II and I2 are illustrated, and by any other desired and suitable securement or fastening.
The containers 8 can have salt, pepper or 35 other seasoning or desired material placed therein, and when the containers 8 are fitted and held in place in association with the bag I, they will be retained against accidental or casual displacement; however, by slightly tearing. the 40 material of the bag adjacent to the lower corner, the receptacle 8 can be removed, or in some instances it may be found desirable and advantageous tov suiiiciently buckle 'or distend the material of the bag that the containers 8 will slide inwardly to thus be available to be discharged through the open end of the bag. In any event, vthe containers 8 are initially enclosed entirely within the bag structure where they will be held against loss and will be protected against injurious or deteriorating effects of atmospheric moisture or the like.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the front and back faces 6 and 1 of the bag, both in the upper por- 55 main bag structure I, this matter can be readily viewed through the transparent material, both before and after folding the bag.
While I have herein shown and described only certain specific embodiments of my invention and have suggested only certain possible modifications, it will be appreciated that changes may be made in the form, construction, arrangement, assembly and association of the parts, and in the manner of use, without Ydeparting from the spirit and scope of my invention.
I claim:
1. A sandwich bag comprising, a bag body having` a closed bottom and an open top. a separate fiat envelope-like container for seasoning and the like inserted in said bag body and located adjacent to the closed bottom, and a fastener secured through the bag body above the location of the container to restrain opening of the bag body to thus form a top closure for the lower portion of the bag body and retain the container therein and at the same time form a bottom closure for an upper portion of the bag body adapted to receive and hold a sandwich and the like.
a,oss,aco
2. A sandwich bag comprising, a bag body having a closed bottom and an open top, a separate flat envelope-like container for seasoning and the like located in said bag body in the lower part thereof adjacent to the closed bottom, and a staple fastener secured through the bag body intermediate the side edges thereof and above the location of the container to restrain opening of the bag body at the point of securement to thus form a top closure for the lower portion of the bag body to retain the container therein against displacement and at the same time to form a bottom closure for an upper portion of the bag body adapted to receive and hold a sandwich and the like.
3. A sandwich bag comprising, with a bellows type of bag body having infolded portions and having a closed bottom and an open top, a separate envelope-like container to receive seasonings and the like fitted in the infolded portions of the body portion adjacent to the closed bottom for carrying and removable therefrom to give access to the contents of the, container, and means securing through .the infolded portion above the bottom where the container is fitted to thus retain the container in association with the bag body while yet permitting ready access thereto by tearing or severance of adjacent portions of the bag body, said securing means at the same time serving as a bottom closure for the upper portion of the bag body adapted to receive and hold a sandwich and the like.
