Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019162640A1] A fully sealed pouch contains a drink and a straw. The pouch has a front face and a rear face, and defines: a top edge where the front face and the rear face are sealed to each other, a bottom portion where the front face and the rear face are connected to each other optionally via a gusset, a first side edge extending from the top edge to the bottom portion, the front face being sealed to the rear face along the first side edge, and a second side edge also extending from the top edge to the bottom portion, the front face and the rear face either being continuous with each other or sealed to each other at the second side edge, and an extended corner portion defined between the top edge and the first side edge. The interior volume of the pouch is divided into a minor portion adjacent the first edge and extending into the extended corner portion, and a major portion communicating with the minor portion. The front face and the rear face are sealed to each other throughout the extended corner portion except where the minor portion extends into the extended corner portion. The straw is located in the minor portion with an end thereof extending into the extended corner portion. A predetermined tear line is defined in the extended corner portion along a line that extends from a position at or adjacent the first side edge, across the minor portion where it extends into the extended comer portion, and along a curved path to or adjacent to the top edge at a position spaced from the join between the top edge and the first side. The tear line constrains a user seeking access to the straw readily to tear therealong to expose the end of the straw and to allow the user thereafter to drink from the pouch via the straw.
