Abstract

Abstract A compartmentalized aerosol container wherein there is incorporated a bag for separating the propellant from the product. In addition, the inner surface of the upper end unit is provided with a covering. The bag and the covering are formed of suitable plastics materials which are heat bondable together and during or after the completion of the seaming operation securing the end unit to the container body, the customarily formed double seam is heated to effect bonding of the end unit covering to the bag.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 181 words
A compartmented container comprising a metal container body, a separately formed metal end unit and a plastics material bag, said end unit being joined to said body by a folded seam including folded portions of both said end unit and said body, said bag having an open end portion entrapped in said folded seam and being subject to rupture in the formation of said seam, and said end unit having an inner surface covering bonded to said bag within said folded seam, said bag and said inner surface covering within said folded seam forming a gasket for said folded seam and forming a seal between said bag and said body, said container being a fluid pressure type dispensing container, said end unit carrying a dispensing valve, said container being subject to leakage of a pressurizing fluid between said body and said bag and a product under pressure within said bag between said bag and said end unit, said bag and said inner surface covering having opposed contacting surfaces, and said surfaces being heat bonded together in situ within said folded seam.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 181 words
A compartmented container comprising a metal container body, a separately formed metal end unit and a plastics material bag, said end unit being joined to said body by a folded seam including folded portions of both said end unit and said body, said bag having an open end portion entrapped in said folded seam and being subject to rupture in the formation of said seam, and said end unit having an inner surface covering bonded to said bag within said folded seam, said bag and said inner surface covering within said folded seam forming a gasket for said folded seam and forming a seal between said bag and said body, said container being a fluid pressure type dispensing container, said end unit carrying a dispensing valve, said container being subject to leakage of a pressurizing fluid between said body and said bag and a product under pressure within said bag between said bag and said end unit, said bag and said inner surface covering having opposed contacting surfaces, and said surfaces being heat bonded together in situ within said folded seam.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
The compartmented container of claim 1 wherein said inner surface covering is a preformed film.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The compartmented container of claim 1 wherein said inner surface covering is a formed in situ covering formed of bonded powder particles.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
The compartmented container of claim 1 wherein a sealing compound is disposed between said end unit and said bag in a major portion of said double seam.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 55 words
The compartmented container of claim 1 wherein a sealing compound is disposed between said end unit and said bag in a major portion of said double seam, said end unit has a portion telescoped within said body, and said heat bonding between said bag and said end unit is with said end unit telescoped portion.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 155 words
A method of forming a compartmented container comprising the steps of providing a metal container having an open end, placing a plastics material bag within said container body with an open free end portion of said bag extending radially outwardly from said container body at its open end, providing a metal end unit for said container body open end with said end unit having an inner surface covering heat bondable to said bag, forming a folded double seam between said end unit and said container body while bringing said end unit inner surface covering into intimate contact with said bag within said folded double seam thereby subjecting said bag to rupture within the folded double seam, and heating said inner surface covering and said bag and forming a heat seal therebetween within said folded seam while simultaneously repairing any ruptures in said bag which may have occurred during the forming of said folded double seam.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 155 words
A method of forming a compartmented container comprising the steps of providing a metal container having an open end, placing a plastics material bag within said container body with an open free end portion of said bag extending radially outwardly from said container body at its open end, providing a metal end unit for said container body open end with said end unit having an inner surface covering heat bondable to said bag, forming a folded double seam between said end unit and said container body while bringing said end unit inner surface covering into intimate contact with said bag within said folded double seam thereby subjecting said bag to rupture within the folded double seam, and heating said inner surface covering and said bag and forming a heat seal therebetween within said folded seam while simultaneously repairing any ruptures in said bag which may have occurred during the forming of said folded double seam.
