Abstract: A reclosable package and processes for making it are disclosed. The reclosable package includes a front panel, a back panel, an upper seal region adapted to be broken to allow a first opening of the reclosable package, a lower seal opposite the upper seal region, a vertical seal extending between the upper seal region and the lower seal on the back panel between the first side edge and the opposing second side edge; and a self-mating fastener disposed adjacent the upper seal region in an interior of the reclosable package. The self-mating fastener includes first and second fastener members each having fastener elements, an open configuration to allow access to the interior volume of the reclosable package, and a closed configuration in which the fastener elements of the first and second fastener members are engaged. In the closed configuration, the self-mating fastener is up to 800 micrometers thick.

Abstract: The fastener includes a backing and rows of rail segments and rows of posts protruding perpendicularly from the backing. The rows of rail segments and rows of posts alternate. Each of the rail segments has a base portion attached to the backing and a cap portion distal from the backing. The cap portion has a cap width that is greater than a width of the base portion, and the cap portion overhangs the base portion on opposing sides. A number of posts in one of the rows of posts is more than a number of rail segments in one of the rows of rail segments. Each of the posts has a height that is no greater than a height of the rail segments and a length that is different from the length of the rail segments. A fastening system that includes the fastener and a package that includes the fastener are also described.

Abstract: The process includes providing a tool roll having a first groove in its outer surface. The first groove has a width of not more than 250 micrometers and a depth of at least 250 micrometers and has multiple protrusions around its peripheral surface. The process includes contacting the outer surface of the tool roll (610, 810) with a moldable material (660). The moldable material (660) fills at least 90 percent of the depth of the first groove (820a). The process further includes removing the structured film (670) from the outer surface of the tool roll (610). The structured film comprises a rib (26) having at least a continuous base portion (23) attached to a first major surface of a backing (2) and a distal portion distal from the backing (2). The distal portion of the rib (26) has a series of notches (29) corresponding to the multiple protrusions (830) around the peripheral surface of the first groove (820a).

Abstract: Various apparatuses are disclosed including those that have curvature arresting properties. According to one example, the apparatus can optionally include a flexible first film, a second film and a first plurality of features. The first plurality of features can be disposed between the first film and the second film At least some of the first plurality of features are spaced apart from one another by a gap when the first film is not subject to an applied bending force or is subject to the applied bending force below a predetermined magnitude in one or both of the transverse direction and the longitudinal direction, and at least some of the first plurality of features contact one another to arrest a curvature of the first film when the applied bending force is at or above the predetermined magnitude.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a reclosable package (100) are disclosed. The package (100) includes a pouch (120) that defines an interior volume (122) and an opening (124) providing access to the interior volume, and a self-mating fastener (150) connected to the pouch. The pouch (120) includes a flexible material and a seal region (140) disposed adjacent the opening that is adapted to be broken to allow a first opening of the pouch. Further, the self-mating fastener (150) includes an open configuration and a closed configuration. When in the open configuration the self-mating fastener is adapted to allow access to the interior volume of the pouch through the opening after the seal region has been broken. When in the closed configuration the self-mating fastener is adapted to prevent access to the interior volume of the pouch through the opening.

Abstract: The fastener (1) includes a backing (2) and rows (14) of rail segments (4) and at least one rib (26) protruding perpendicularly from a first major surface of the backing (2). Each of the rail segments (4) has a base portion (10) attached to the backing and a cap portion (8) distal from the backing. The cap portion (8) has a cap width that is greater than a width of the base portion (10), and the cap portion (8) overhangs the base portion (10) on opposing sides. The base portion has a length that is greater than the width of the base portion. The rib (26) has at least a continuous base portion (23) attached to the backing (2) and a height that is no greater than a height of the rail segments (4), and the continuous base portion (23) is continuous along the length of the backing (2) for at least the length of five rail segments (4). A fastening system that includes the fastener and a package (100) that includes the fastener are also described.

Abstract: The fastening system includes first and second fastening members, each having a backing and rows of rail segments protruding from the backing. The rails segments have a base portion attached to the backing and a cap portion distal from the backing. The cap portion has a cap width that is greater than a width of the base portion. There are rows of posts protruding from the backing of at least the first fastening member. When the first and second fastening members undergo fastening, the posts bend away from the rail segments while the cap portions of the rail segments of the first and second fastening members pass by each other and then return to their original positions after the first and second fastening members are fastened. The fastening system attached to a portion of a package is also disclosed.
