Abstract
A food package for packaging bread that is constructed from a generally planar opaque base panel upon which the loaf of bread rests and a substantially transparent covering that covers the bread in a manner such that the top, sides and ends of the loaf of bread are clearly visible to the prospective purchaser when the package is positioned on the shelf of the retail outlet.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to food bags. More particularly, the invention concerns bags for packaging food items for display and, more specifically, concerns bags of the type used in the food industry to package bread.
- 2. Discussion of the Prior Art
- In the past, a wide variety of different types of food packages have been developed for the package and display of a number of different types of food items. In those instances where the food item is packaged for display in grocery stores and similar retail outlets, it is desirable that at least a portion of the food item be visible to prospective purchasers. Accordingly, in the past a number of different types of so-called “window bags” have been designed. Basically these types of prior art bags are constructed from an opaque bag material, such as paper and have a viewing “window” provided therein that is formed from a transparent plastic sheet or film, so as to display a portion, but not all of the packaged food item.
- Exemplary of the foregoing types of “window bags” is the bag shown in
FIG. 1 of the drawings and the bread package illustrated and described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,048,213 issued to Grogan. The Grogan bread package comprises of a loaf of bread enclosed within a wrapper which consists in part of practically transparent material and in part of opaque material so wrapped around the loaf as to display the rounded top portion for inspection and to conceal the lower portion of the loaf within the opaque portions. - As will be apparent from the discussion that follows, the package of the present invention uniquely comprises a generally planar opaque base panel upon which the loaf of bread rests and a substantially transparent covering that covers the bread in a manner such that the top, sides and ends of the loaf of bread are clearly visible to the prospective purchaser when the package is positioned on the shelf of the retail outlet.
- By way of brief summary, the food package of the present invention comprises a bag for containing bread that includes a generally planar base disposed in a first plane and formed of an opaque printable material having first and second ends and first and second sides; and a cover connected to the base, the cover being constructed from a thin, substantially transparent foldable material, the cover having first and second edges, the first edge being connected to the first side of said base and said second edge being connected to the second side of said base. Uniquely, each of the first and second sides of the cover has a pleated area permitting the cover to be movable from a first position wherein the cover is disposed in a second plane generally parallel to the first plane to a second position wherein the cover is an expanded configuration.
- With the forgoing in mind it is an object of the invention to provide a food package that uniquely comprises a generally planar opaque base panel upon which the loaf of bread rests and a substantially transparent covering that covers the bread in a manner such that the top, sides and ends of the loaf of bread are clearly visible to the prospective purchaser when the package is positioned on the shelf of the retail outlet.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a food package of the aforementioned character in which the base panel of the food package is sturdy and easily printable.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a food package as described in the preceding paragraphs that provides an adequate degree of stiffness so that when the package is in use it will retain its expanded shape.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a food package that is relatively easy and inexpensive to fabricate using conventional packaging equipment.
- These and other objects of the invention will be achieved by the food package described in greater detail in the paragraphs that follow.

FIG. 5 is an exploded, generally perspective view of the cover and base panel of the bread package as they appear when in position to be folded along a fold line located proximate the first end of the package. -
FIG. 6 is a generally perspective rear view similar toFIG. 5 , but showing the first end portion of the package partially folded along the fold line. -
FIG. 7 is a generally perspective rear view similar toFIG. 6 , but showing the first end portion of the package fully folded along the fold line. -
FIG. 8 is a view taken along lines 8-8 ofFIG. 2A . -
FIG. 9 is a view taken along lines 9-9 ofFIG. 2A . -
FIG. 10 is a greatly enlarged, cross-sectional view of the area designated inFIG. 9 as 10-10. - Referring to the drawings, and particularly in
FIG. 1 , a typical type of prior art bread bag is there shown. This type of prior art bag is constructed from an opaque bag material, such as paper “P” and has a viewing “window” “W” provided therein that is formed from a transparent plastic sheet or film, so as to display a portion, but not all of the packaged food item. - Turning to
FIGS. 2 , 2A, 2B, 3 and 4, one form of the novel food package of the present invention for containing bread can be seen to comprise abase 14 that is formed of an opaque printable material such as readily commercially available Kraft paper. As best seen inFIG. 4 ,base 14 is generally rectangular shaped and has anupper surface 16, a lower indicia carrying surface 18 (see, for example, the indicia “I” illustrated inFIG. 2B ) and first andsecond ends Upper surface 16 has afirst side portion 22 and asecond side portion 24. - A substantially
transparent cover 26 is affixed tobase 14 in the manner illustrated inFIG. 2 of the drawings. As been seen inFIG. 2A ,cover 26 has afirst side 28, the lower margin 28 a of which is folded and adhesively secured tofirst side portion 22 ofupper surface 16 ofbase 14 and has asecond side 30, thelower margin 30a of which is folded and adhesively secured tosecond side portion 24 ofupper surface 16 ofbase 14. -
Cover 26, which has afirst end portion 26 a can be constructed from various thin, substantially transparent, foldable materials, but a readily commercially available polyester material has proven most satisfactory for use in constructing the cover. - In the manner illustrated in
FIGS. 5 through 9 the drawings wherein thecover 26 and thebase panel 14 have been interconnected along their respective side portions,first end portion 26 a ofcover 26 and thefirst end portion 19 ofbase 14 are first folded along afold line 31 in the manner shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.This done, the folded end portion is then adhesively secured to the marginal portion 33 (FIG. 6 ) of thelower surface 18 of base 14 (FIG. 2B ). A novel feature of thecover 26 resides in the fact that each of the first andsecond sides FIG. 2A ). More particularly,first side 28 has anupper portion 28 b and a lower portion 28 c with thepleated area 35 being disposed intermediateupper portion 28 b and said lower portion 28 c. Similarly,second side 30 has anupper portion 30 b and a lower portion 30 c with thepleated area 35 being disposed intermediateupper portion 30 b and said lower portion 30 c. - With the novel construction described in the preceding paragraphs, with
base 14 disposed in a first plane and with the cover securely affixed to the base in the manner previously described,cover 26 is movable from the first configuration shown inFIG. 4 , wherein it is in a partially expanded configuration, to a second position shown inFIG. 2 of the drawings, wherein the cover is a fully expanded configuration to expeditiously accept the loaf of bread. - The method of the present invention comprises forming a food package from the generally planar,
opaque base 14 and the substantiallytransparent cover 26. As illustrated inFIGS. 4 through 7 of the drawings, one form of the method of the invention comprises the steps of first imprinting the indicia “I” on theupper surface 16 of the base panel to form an imprinted base panel 38 (FIG. 2B ). Next, thelower portions 28 a and 30 a of the first and second sides of the cover are folded in a manner to form first and second connector panels 40 (FIG. 4 ). This done, the first and second connector panels are securely, adhesively bonded to theupper surface 16 of the imprintedbase panel 38 to form afirst subassembly 42 having the fold line 31 (seeFIG. 5 ). Next, thefirst subassembly 42 is folded alongfold line 31 to form a connector segment 44 (FIG. 6 ). Finally, theconnector segment 44 is adhesively bonded to the lower surface of the imprintedbase panel 38 to form thefood package 46 illustrated inFIG. 7 of the drawings. - Having now described the invention in detail in accordance with the requirements of the patent statutes, those skilled in this art will have no difficulty in making changes and modifications in the individual parts or their relative assembly in order to meet specific requirements or conditions. Such changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention, as set forth in the following claims.
