- Cutting or tearing may be effected along one or more cutting lines 220.
- a cutting line 220 may include a pre-cut portion, a pre-folded portion, or any other cutting line known in the art.
- a cutting line 220 may be a marking along which a cut may be performed.
- a cutting line 220 may span one or more sides or edges of a bag 210.
- One or more portions or sides of the container 210 may be reinforced or otherwise adapted to receive food items.
- One or more portions or sides of the container 210, such as side panel 230 in exemplary embodiment 200 may alternatively be adapted to be partially cut, torn and/or folded to form edges, and may include, for example, cutting lines.
- FIG. 3 shows an exemplary embodiment of a container, such as a bag 300, adapted to serve either as a bag convert or as two plates.
- the bag may be symmetrically cut into halves. Flaps on two sides of each bag half may be adapted to convert each bag half into a plate, and it may be noted that flaps on one side of bag 300 may have corresponding sections on an opposite side.
- exemplary Figs. 3a-f another embodiment of a multi-use food container may be shown.
- bag 300 may be formed in any desired manner, such as a similar manner to that described with exemplary Figs. 1 and 2. Additionally, it may be appreciated that bag 300 could, alternatively, be a box or any other type of food container, as desired.
- bag 300 may have a substantially closed bottom portion 302, a substantially open top portion 304, a bottom flap 306 and a perforation 308. Further, top flap 310 may be disposed on an interior portion of bag 300. Perforation 308 may run around the entirety of the bag, allowing it to be separated completely in half.
- Fig. 3b shows an exemplary side view of bag 300 after it has been separated along perforation 308. It is noted that there could be a second half of bag 300, after it is separated along perforation 308, that the second half of the bag could be utilized in a similar manner as described herein.
- bottom flap 306 is opened to form sections 306a and 306b, and, along with a portion of bag 300 that was separated, forms flap 314.
- flap 310 disposed on an interior portion proximate open top portion 304 is opened to form flap 320.
- Fig. 3d which is a side view
- flap 306 is opened outwards, forming flap 318 with sections 306a and 306b.
- flap 310 may still be seen as unfolded, on an interior portion of bag 300.
- Exemplary Fig. 5e shows a top- down view of bag 300 after it has been separated and substantially opened. Additionally, in this view, flaps 306, 314 and 318 are opened. Then flap 310 and interior bag portion 320 are opened, forming sections 310a and 310b, as well as flap 322. Further, center area, or depressed container area 330 may then be substantially formed with wall sections 314, 316, 318 and 322.
- any flaps described herein may substantially fold in place to form a substantially permanent and impermeable border.
- any flaps may be fitted with any other coupling mechanisms, for example adhesives, male and female couplings, and the like.
- bag 300 has now been folded to form substantially depressed container area 330 with perimeter walls 314, 316, 318, and 322 coupled to form perimeter wall 328 disposed there around.
- Food placed within eating area 330 may be substantially contained therein by way of substantially impermeable perimeter wall 328, which is formed through the folding and coupling of various flaps.
- a plate may be formed in the side of a bag or box.
- bag 400 may be similar in size, shape, and structure to that described with respect to bag 110 in exemplary Fig. 1.
- bag 400 may be shown on a side portion, or may have been otherwise detached from other sides and a bottom portion of bag 400.
- bag 400 may have plate 410 formed therein.
- Plate 410 may be any size, for example sized to fit within the dimensions of a side portion of bag 400.
- plate 410 may be formed in any desired shape, for example substantially rectangular, substantially oval, or any other size or shape.
- Plate 410 may be formed to be at least partially depressed into an interior portion of bag 400, or may be formed so as to be at least partially protruding from an exterior portion of bag 400. This may allow for the plate 410 to have sidewalls 420 which can allow for the containment of food or other items when the plate 410 is used for eating.
- the plate 410 may be formed out of any of a variety of materials.
- the plate 410 can be formed such that it is a thicker version of the material or materials used to form bag 400.
- plate 410 could be formed out of any paper, cardboard, plastic, or any other desired material that may be used to form traditional disposable plates.
- the plate 410 may be formed or otherwise coupled with the bag 400 in any desired manner and the plate 410 and the bag 400 may be formed out of separate materials.
- the bag 400 may be formed from plastic and the plate 410 may be formed from a reinforced paper, although any combination of materials is envisioned.
- the plate 410 may be formed with bag 400 such that plate 410 is removable or detachable from the bag 400.
- the plate 410 may be formed with the bag 400 having a substantially precut perimeter that allows the plate 410 to be quickly and easily removed or detached from the bag 400.
- the plate 410 could be coupled or otherwise attached to the bag 400 in any desired manner, for example through the use of an adhesive.
