Bag with a safety net

Abstract

Ordinary bags are made of either paper or plastic material. Due to a puncture of the bag, the point of puncture quickly becomes a ripping point to further enlarge an originally small opening. The present invention overcomes this shortcoming of ordinary bags by using a new material that is produced by adhering a web material with a base material. The web material would effectively serve as a safety net to prevent further ripping of the bag once the base material of the bag is punctured.

1 . A method of making a bag using a material made of a web material adhered with a base material, comprising a plurality of steps of: 
 a. forming the material into a rectangular shape;    b. dividing the rectangular piece of material into a header zone, a body zone, a footer zone, a first flat-side zone, a first folding zone, a second flat-side zone, a second folding zone, and a tab zone;    c. forming an endless closure by adhering the tab zone to a surface of the first flat-side zone wherein the web material residing on one of the tab zone and the first flat-side zone serves as a retaining wall to retain a pool of adhesives therein when the tab zone is adhered to the first flat-side zone.    
   
   
       2 . The method of making a bag of  claim 1 , further comprising a step of: 
 d. folding the header zone into the body zone.

 e. adhering a reinforcement member in-between the header zone and the body zone.    
   
   
       4 . The method of making a bag of  claim 3 , further comprising a step of: 
 f. creating a plurality of holes through the reinforcement member, the header zone and the body zone on both the first flat-side zone and the second flat-side zone.    
   
   
       5 . The method of making a bag of  claim 1 , further comprising a step of: 
 g. configuring the endless closure into a substantially rectangular shape along a plurality of boundaries defining the first flat-side zone, the first folding zone, the second flat-side zone, the second folding zone and the tab zone.    
   
   
       6 . The method of making a bag of  claim 5 , further comprising a step of: 
 h. folding a first bottom edge of the first folding zone and a second bottom edge of the second folding zone toward each other so that the first and second bottom edges are substantially parallel.    
   
   
       7 . The method of making a bag of  claim 6 , further comprising a step of: 
 i. folding a third bottom edge on the first flat-side zone and a fourth bottom edge on the second flat-side zone toward each other to form a first closure tab and a second closure tab in a way that the third and fourth edges are substantially parallel and the first closure tab and the second closure tab overlap each other.    
   
   
       8 . The method of making a bag of  claim 7 , further comprising a step of: 
 j. forming a closure end by adhering the first closure tab to the second closure tab wherein the web material on one of the first closure tab and the second closure tab forms a retaining wall to retain a pool of adhesives when the first closure tab is adhered to the second closure tab.    
   
   
       9 . The method of making a bag of  claim 8 , further comprising a step of: 
 k. inserting each of two ends of an elongated flexible material into each of the plurality of holes and form a tying knot therein wherein the tying knot is larger than each of the plurality of holes so that the string becomes a bag handle.    
   
   
       10 . The method of making a bag of  claim 1 , wherein the web material is one of a material formed by weaving, knitting, pressing, or felting natural or synthetic fibers, a net, a lace, a tulle, an allover lace made of one of polyester, nylon, rayon, lurex and cotton.  
   
   
       11 . The method of making a bag of  claim 1 , wherein the base material is one of a paper material, a foil material, a cardboard material, a plastic material and a material formed by weaving, knitting, pressing, or felting natural or synthetic fibers.  
   
   
       12 . A bag made of a material having a web material adhered with a base material giving the material a web surface side and a flat surface side, the material comprises: 
 a header zone;    a body zone;    a footer zone;    a first flat-side zone;    a first folding zone;    a second flat-side zone;    a second folding zone; and    a tab zone;    wherein when the tab zone is adhered to the first flat-side zone, the web material residing on one of the tab zone and the first flat-side zone serves as a retaining wall to retain a pool of adhesives in-between the tab zone and the first flat-side zone when they are adhered together.    
   
   
       13 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein when the footer zone of the first flat-side zone, the first folding zone, the second flat-side zone and the second folding zone are foldably formed into a closure end, the web material residing on the footer zone serves as a retaining wall to retain a pool of adhesives between a plurality of surfaces of the footer zone to adhere them together.  
   
   
       14 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein the web material shares a load placed on the base material.  
   
   
       15 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein when an object penetrates and punctures the base material, the web material adhered with the base material limits a size of penetration on the base material.  
   
   
       16 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein when an object penetrates and punctures the base material, the web material adhered with the base material prevents further tearing of the base material.  
   
   
       17 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein when an object penetrates and punctures the base material, the web material adhered with the base material retains any object stored in the bag.  
   
   
       18 . The bag of  claim 12 , wherein a reinforcement member is adhered in-between the header zone and the body zone to evenly distribute a load to other zones of the bag.  
   
   
       19 . The bag of  claim 18 , wherein a plurality of holes are created through the header zone, the body zone and the reinforcement member.  
   
   
       20 . The bag of  claim 19 , wherein both ends of a string each being inserted into each of the plurality of holes and to create a tying knot having a size larger than a size of each of the plurality of holes to become a handle.
