Abstract
Abstract A web comprising two end-to-end series of bags of synthetic plastics material is disclosed. The bags of each series are joined to one another by structures comprising weld lines and lines of weakening. The two series are joined to one another by a structure comprising either a line of weakening or a line of weakening with welds on each side thereof. The web is constituted by a tube which is extruded with two sets of inter-engagable ribs. Each series of bags is punched with a row of tractor holes. In another form there is a single end-to-end series of bags.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
142 words
A web comprising two parallel end-to-end series of bags of synthetic plastic material, the parallel series of bags being joined to one another along a line of weakening which extends along the centre of the web, each bag being joined to an adjacent bag of its series along a structure comprising a line of weakening and a weld on each side of the line of weakening, said welds forming edges of the bags and the web further having two laterally spaced rows of tractor holes and two sets of interengageable ribs, there being a set of ribs adjacent each edge of the web, the rows and ribs both extending in the direction of the length of the web and extending parallel to one another with the rows of tractor holes between each set of ribs and the adjacent edge of the web.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
142 words
A web comprising two parallel end-to-end series of bags of synthetic plastic material, the parallel series of bags being joined to one another along a line of weakening which extends along the centre of the web, each bag being joined to an adjacent bag of its series along a structure comprising a line of weakening and a weld on each side of the line of weakening, said welds forming edges of the bags and the web further having two laterally spaced rows of tractor holes and two sets of interengageable ribs, there being a set of ribs adjacent each edge of the web, the rows and ribs both extending in the direction of the length of the web and extending parallel to one another with the rows of tractor holes between each set of ribs and the adjacent edge of the web.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
A web as claimed in claim 1, wherein said rows of tractor holes are punched in said bags.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
A web as claimed in claim 2, and including a line of weakening extending in the direction of the length of the web between each row of tractor holes and each pair of ribs.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
A web as claimed in claim 3 and including lines of weakening which extend in the direction of the length of the web and coincide with said rows of tractor holes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
53 words
A web as claimed in any one of claims 2 to 4, wherein the two series of bags are joined to one another by a structure which includes a longitudinally extending weld, the longitudinally extending weld extending on each side of said line of weakening which extends along the centre of the web.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
179 words
A web comprising an end-to-end series of bags of synthetic plastic material, each bag being joined to an adjacent bag along a structure comprising a line of weakening and a weld on each side of the line of weakening, said welds forming edges of the bags and the web further having first and second laterally spaced rows of tractor holes and a single set of inter-engageable ribs which ribs are adjacent one edge of the web, said first row of said tractor holes being between said one edge of the web and the ribs, and said second row of said tractor holes being adjacent the other edge of the web, the rows and ribs both extending in the direction of the length of the web and extending parallel to one another with the ribs adjacent one edge of the web, there being a longitudinally extending weld adjacent the other edge of the web, said second row of tractor holes being between this weld and said other edge of the web, and the web being split along said one edge.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
179 words
A web comprising an end-to-end series of bags of synthetic plastic material, each bag being joined to an adjacent bag along a structure comprising a line of weakening and a weld on each side of the line of weakening, said welds forming edges of the bags and the web further having first and second laterally spaced rows of tractor holes and a single set of inter-engageable ribs which ribs are adjacent one edge of the web, said first row of said tractor holes being between said one edge of the web and the ribs, and said second row of said tractor holes being adjacent the other edge of the web, the rows and ribs both extending in the direction of the length of the web and extending parallel to one another with the ribs adjacent one edge of the web, there being a longitudinally extending weld adjacent the other edge of the web, said second row of tractor holes being between this weld and said other edge of the web, and the web being split along said one edge.
