Bag closing seal

Abstract

A bag sealing device comprises an opposed press lock structure together with two adhesive bearing strips disposed below the press lock structure together with at least one strip that is employed to prevent premature sticking of the two adhesive bearing strips. This device is employed in combination with a bag containing a food product with disposed within the bag.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . The combination of
 a container having an openable end providing an opening to said container; and   a sealing device for said container in which said sealing device is contained, said sealing device having a first portion and a second portion in which   said first portion of said sealing device includes a length of press lock seal with opposing strip portions facing one another so as to form a closable seal and in which said second portion of said sealing device is attached to said first portion, and in which said second portion has strips of adhesive material disposed on opposed interior portions of said second portion, said adhesive material extending across said second portion and being sufficiently wide and sufficiently long so as to permit the end portion of said container immediately adjacent to its openable end to be disposed above said adhesive material and so that the openable end of said container is also disposed below said adhesive material so that adhesive-to-adhesive contact is also present above said openable end along with adhesive-to-container contact below said openable end, whereby said openable end of said container is embedded within said adhesive.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  in which said first portion includes a zipper. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1  in which said first portion includes opposed, flexible mating structures that snap together to form a seal. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1  in which at least one peelable protective cover strip is disposed between strips of adhesive material, whereby contact is prevented prior to use.
