Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
A packing container comprising a double walled cylindrical body, said body including a pliable cylindrical member which is turned inside out and folded back at about the center of the length of said cylindrical member to form said double walled cylindrical body, a first binding cord threaded about the periphery of the lower end of the inner layer of said cylindrical body, a second binding cord threaded about the periphery of the lower end of the outer layer of said cylindrical body, said first and second binding cords being tied independently to substantially close the bottom of said cylindrical body, an annular member inserted in the folded back upper end of said cylindrical body and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart closed loop shaped hanging cords encircling said annular member and projecting above the upper end of said cylindrical body, said annular member being used to substantially close the upper end of said cylindrical body.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
A packing container comprising a double walled cylindrical body, said body including a pliable cylindrical member which is turned inside out and folded back at about the center of the length of said cylindrical member to form said double walled cylindrical body, a first binding cord threaded about the periphery of the lower end of the inner layer of said cylindrical body, a second binding cord threaded about the periphery of the lower end of the outer layer of said cylindrical body, said first and second binding cords being tied independently to substantially close the bottom of said cylindrical body, an annular member inserted in the folded back upper end of said cylindrical body and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart closed loop shaped hanging cords encircling said annular member and projecting above the upper end of said cylindrical body, said annular member being used to substantially close the upper end of said cylindrical body.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein said cylindrical member comprises a cloth of synthetic fibers coated with a film of synthetic resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 57 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein said lower ends of said inner and outer layers are folded back to form circumferential loops and said first and second binding cords are threaded through said circumferential loops, the opposite ends of said first and second binding cords extending outwardly through openings formed through said inner and outer layers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 60 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein said annular member comprises a third binding cord contained in the folded back upper end of said cylindrical body, the opposite ends of said third binding cord extending outwardly through said cylindrical member, and wherein said cylindrical body is provided with a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart openings for accommodating said hanging cords.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein a bottom lid is disposed in the bottom of said container, for closing the bottom opening thereof, and said bottom lid is secured in position by means of tapes passing about said first and second binding cords.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein the diameter of the bottom opening formed by tieing said first binding cord is smaller than that of the bottom opening formed by tieing said second binding cord.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 101 words
The container according to claim 6 wherein a cylindrical auxiliary bottom member is connected at its one end to the lower end of said outer layer near said second binding cord, and a third binding cord is threaded about the periphery of the opposite end of said auxiliary bottom member, said third binding cord substantially closing the bottom opening of said container when said third binding cord is tied, said auxiliary bottom member depending downwardly from said second binding cord when said third binding cord is untied, thus defining a contamination free discharge chute for the content contained in said container.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 34 words
The container according to claim 7 wherein said auxiliary bottom member is turned upwardly around the bottom corner of said container to expose the bottom oppenings formed by said first and second binding cords.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 26 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein the upper opening of said container which is formed by said annular member is closed by a top lid.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 64 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein the bottom openings of said container which are formed by tieing said first and second binding cords independently have substantially the same diameter and wherein a short cylinderical bottom lid is provided, said bottom lid having a peripheral groove adapted to accommodate said first and second bonding cords and a central opening closed by a removable plug.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 18 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein said annular member takes the form of a rigid annular ring.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 16 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein a cylindrical inner bag is disposed in said container.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 32 words
The container according to claim 12 wherein the bottom end of said inner bag is closed by means of a binding cord which is untied when discharging the content of said container.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 39 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein a third binding cord is threaded through the upper portion of said cylindrical body, said third binding cord being adapted to form an opening larger than that formed by said annular member.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 68 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein the bottom opening formed by said second binding cord is smaller than that formed by said first binding cord and wherein said outer layer is connected to said inner layer at points close to said first binding cord so that when said second binding cord is untied the lower end of said outer layer depends downwardly to form a discharge chute.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 22 words
The container according to claim 15 wherein an inner bag is disposed in said container, said inner bag having an openable bottom.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 58 words
The container according to claim 15 wherein an annular sheet of pliable material is secured onto the inner surface of said outer layer at the lower end thereof, the lower side of said annular sheet extending beyond said second binding cord so as to substantially close the bottom of said container when said second bonding cord is tied.
Claim 19
Dependent Claim 50 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein the bottom opening formed by said second bonding cord is substantially equal to or a little smaller than that formed by said first binding cord and a bottom lid is interposed between said first and second binding cords to close said bottom openings.
Claim 20
Dependent Claim 31 words
The container according to claim 1 wherein said inner and outer layers of said cylindrical body are connected together at points axially spaced apart from said first and second binding cords.
