Abstract
Abstract A resealable package comprising a backing and a bubble displaceably mounted on it and having an opening facing towards the backing. Said opening is at least partially uncoverable for removal of the goods enclosed by the package. The package includes a flap on the backing, said flap being foldable from a first position enclosing an object removal opening in the backing and preventing bubble displacement relative backing, to a second position uncovering the removal opening and enabling displacement of the bubble. In said second position at least parts of the openings of the bubble and backing coincide.

Resealable package comprising a backing with an object removal opening; a bubble displaceably mounted on the backing and having an opening facing towards the backing, this opening at least partially being uncoverable for removal of the goods enclosed in the package; a flap on the backing; said flap being foldable from a first position enclosing the object removal opening in the backing and preventing displacement of the bubble relative the backing, to a second position uncovering the removal opening and enabling displacement of the bubble relative the backing; and at least parts of the openings of the bubble and backing coincide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
101 words
Resealable package comprising a backing with an object removal opening; a bubble displaceably mounted on the backing and having an opening facing towards the backing, this opening at least partially being uncoverable for removal of the goods enclosed in the package; a flap on the backing; said flap being foldable from a first position enclosing the object removal opening in the backing and preventing displacement of the bubble relative the backing, to a second position uncovering the removal opening and enabling displacement of the bubble relative the backing; and at least parts of the openings of the bubble and backing coincide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
63 words
Package as claimed in claim 1, wherein the flap is foldable along a line at right angles to the displacement direction of the bubble and suitably forming one defining edge of the opening in the backing, and wherein the free edge facing away from this line in the first position of the flap is locked in a locking means formed on the bubble.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
51 words
Package as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that the locking means comprises at least one groove, parallel to the free flap edge, and parts of the bubble, contiguous to said groove, said parts being yielding suppressable by said flap edge while enabling its engagement with, and removal from the groove.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
80 words
Package as claimed in claim 1, wherein the backing comprises two mutually connected and mutually overlapping sheets defining grooves between themselves, the bubble opening at least partially surrounding said grooves in which flanges projecting from the edges of the bubble are displaceably disposed, wherein one sheet continuously encloses at least a portion of the bubble opening, in that said backing opening is formed by cutouts in both sheets and wherein the flap is a part of at least one sheet.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
31 words
Package as claimed in claim 1, wherein the folding line of the flap forms a stop preventing displacement of the bubble past the flap when the latter assumes its second position.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
69 words
Package as claimed in claim 1, wherein the flap is a part of the backing and is connected to it along a folding line and is also preferably at right angles to weakening lines in the backing material at right angles to said folding line, said backing material being disposed for rupturing along said weakening line when the flap is folded from its first position for the first time.
