Abstract

A closure assembly useable with a pouch or bag includes an elongate seal assembly and a slider. The seal assembly includes upper and lower interlocking profiles and a rib disposed between the interlocking profiles on at least one side of the seal assembly. The slider includes forward closure bars at a first end and a separator finger and lower closure bars adjacent to an opposing second end. The forward and lower closure bars occlude the upper and lower interlocking profiles. The separator finger extends between the upper interlocking profiles and presses outwardly against the rib to de-occlude the lower interlocking profiles. The lower interlocking profiles can be occluded along substantially an entire length thereof. The slider also includes a retention plate and pressing members, which operatively retain the slider on the seal assembly and may increase the opening force created by the separator finger against the rib.

Claims (20)

1. A resealable closure assembly, comprising:

a first sidewall including a first plurality of mating elements extending along the first sidewall;

a second sidewall opposing the first sidewall including a second plurality of mating elements extending along the second sidewall, wherein the first plurality of mating elements resealably mates with the second plurality of mating elements;
a rib extending along the first sidewall and disposed between two adjacent mating elements of the first plurality of mating elements; and a slider adapted to mate and unmate the first and second plurality of mating elements, wherein the slider includes a separator finger that unmates a first pair of opposing mating elements by pressing outwardly against the rib, and wherein the first pair of opposing mating elements is disposed beyond a distal end of the central protrusion.
2. The resealable closure assembly of claim 1, wherein the first pair of opposing mating elements extends completely between opposite ends of an opening defined between the first sidewall and the second sidewall.
3. The resealable closure assembly of claim 1, wherein a first portion of the rib near one end of the closure assembly is adapted to provide less opening force against the separator finger than at other portions along the closure assembly.
4. The resealable closure assembly of claim 3, wherein the rib has a shorter profile at the first portion than at the other portions.
5. The resealable closure assembly of claim 1, wherein the first pair of opposing mating elements comprises an asymmetrical hook profile adapted to interlock with an opposing interlocking profile.
6. The resealable closure assembly of claim 1, wherein the separator finger is disposed proximate to a closing end of the slider, and wherein the slider includes a first closing member positioned proximate to an opening end of the slider opposite the closing end and a second closing member disposed between the first closing member and the separator finger, and wherein the second closing member is adapted to mate the first pair of opposing mating elements.
7. The resealable closure assembly of claim 1, wherein the slider includes a retaining member disposed between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and between at least one of the plurality of mating elements and the rib, and wherein the slider includes protrusions for pressing the first and second sidewalls toward the retention member.
8. The resealable closure assembly of claim 7, wherein the rib comprises an elongate hollow triangular profile.
9. A reclosable closure assembly, comprising:

a first closure element disposed along a first sidewall and a second closure element disposed along the first sidewall and spaced from the first closure element;
a third closure element disposed along a second sidewall opposite the first sidewall and a fourth closure element disposed along the second sidewall and spaced from the third closure element;
an elongate ridge extending along the first sidewall and disposed between the first and second closure elements; and a slider adapted to occlude and de-occlude the first and second closure elements with the third and fourth closure elements, respectively, wherein the slider includes a central protrusion that extends between the first and third closure elements and de-occludes the second and fourth closure elements by pressing outwardly against the elongate ridge, wherein the central protrusion does not extend between the second and fourth closure elements.
10. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 9, wherein the elongate ridge is deformed to provide less pressing resistance against the central protrusion for a distance extending from an end of the reclosable closure assembly.
11. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 9, wherein the first and fourth closure elements are female interlocking profiles and the second and third closure elements are corresponding male interlocking profiles, and wherein the second closure element comprises an asymmetrical hook profile.
12. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 9, wherein the slider occludes the second and fourth closure elements along substantially an entire length of an opening defined between the first sidewall and the second sidewall.
13. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 9, wherein the slider includes first closure bars proximate to a closing end opposite an opening end, wherein the central protrusion is proximate to the opening end, wherein the slider further includes second closure bars disposed between the first closure bars and the central protrusion and spaced from an upper wall of the slider, wherein the first closure bars engage the first and third closure elements and the second and fourth closure elements, respectively, and wherein the second closure bars engage only the second and fourth closure elements.
14. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 13, wherein the slider includes a retention plate disposed between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and wherein the retention plate extends toward at least one of the first and second sidewalls between the first and second closure elements or the third and fourth closure elements, respectively.
15. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 14, wherein the retention plate is spaced from the central protrusion and maintains the elongate ridge in a substantially perpendicular position relative to the first sidewall.
16. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 9 further comprising a second elongate ridge extending along the second sidewall and disposed between the third and fourth closure elements, wherein the central protrusion presses outwardly against the second elongate ridge.
17. The reclosable closure assembly of claim 16, wherein the first elongate ridge comprises a hollow triangular profile, and wherein the first elongate ridge is offset from the second elongate ridge.
18. A slider, comprising:

first and second opposing faces extending from a top wall and defining a channel therebetween;

first closing members extending into the channel from the first and second opposing faces and disposed adjacent to a first end of the slider;
a separating member extending into the channel from the top wall adjacent to a second end of the slider opposite the first end, wherein the separating member is spaced between the first and second opposing faces; and second closing members extending into the channel from the first and second opposing faces and spaced from the top wall, wherein the second closing members are disposed between the separating member and the first closing members, and further wherein a distal end of the separating member is disposed between the second closing members and the top wall.
19. The slider of claim 18, further comprising a retaining member carried from the top wall by a hanger member, wherein the retaining member is spaced from the top wall between the first face and the second face, and at least one pressing member extending into the channel from at least one of the first and second opposing faces adjacent to the retaining member.
20. The slider of claim 19, wherein the separating member comprises a substantially vertical tapered wedge.
