Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for packing powdered or granular material, e.g. cement .
- Cementitious material is typically packed in three-ply bags comprising inner and outer layers of paper material separated by a layer of plastics material, the bags being perforated to allow excess air to escape through the perforations when the bags are stacked.
- the perforations also allow the undesirable ingress of moisture into the bags, which may spoil their contents .
- a method for mixing a powdered cementitious material with water comprising providing a quantity of said material in a bag having an inner, support layer of water- soluble material and a non-permeable outer layer of waterproof material, breaching said inner and outer layers and placing the bag in a mixer also containing a quantity of water, the resulting ingress of water into the bag causing the water- soluble inner layer to dissolve, thereby allowing the waterproof exterior of the bag to disintegrate within the mix.
- the inner layer comprises a water-soluble bag of paper or plastics material and the outer layer comprises either a non-permeable waterproof bag, to which the inner layer is bonded, or a non-permeable waterproof coating applied by a spray or dip-coating process.
- the water-soluble bag is porous or formed with one or more perforations to permit air to escape from the bag prior to it being spray or dip-coated.
- the coating comprises a material which provides a limited degree of cohesion with that of another bag, to secure the bag in position within a stack.
- the mixer is rotated to further breach the bag and to enable the water to fully come into contact with all of the water-soluble inner layer.
- the bag may be beached initially by rotation of the mixer. The bag may be breached before or after it is placed in the mixer.
- the water may be added to the mixer before or after the bag is placed in the mixer.
- a bag for containing a powdered cementitious material comprising an inner layer of water-soluble material and a non-permeable outer layer of waterproof material .
- a bag containing a powdered cementitious material comprising an inner layer of water-soluble material and a non-permeable outer layer of waterproof material .
- a method for packing powdered or granular material comprising filling a bag with a quantity of said material and then spray or dip-coating substantially the whole of the exterior of the bag with a non-permeable, waterproof coating.
- the bag is soluble in water.
- said powdered or granular material comprises a powdered cementitious material .
- the bag is porous or perforated and the filled bag is compressed or subjected to a vacuum prior, prior to being coated, to reduce its residual air content.
- an apparatus arranged to fill a bag with a quantity of powdered or granular material and to then spray or dip-coat substantially the whole of the exterior of the bag with a non-permeable waterproof coating.
- the apparatus comprises means for compressing or subjecting a porous or perforated bag to a vacuum, prior to its being coated, to reduce the residual air content of the bag.
- a method for manufacturing a bag for containing cementitious material comprising forming a two- layer material comprising a layer of water soluble material and a non-permeable layer of waterproof material and forming the two-layer material into a bag having said layer of water soluble material as an inner layer thereof and said non- permeable layer of waterproof material as an outer layer thereof .
- the two layers may be co-extruded either as a sheet, which is then folded and bonded to form a bag, or as a tube, one end of which is closed to form a bag.
- the two layers may comprise respective sheets which are which are superimposed and bonded together, before being folded and bonded to form a bag.
- Figure 1 is a series of schematic images illustrating a process, in accordance with the present invention, for producing a bag filled with cementitious material
- Figure 2 illustrates how the bag filled according to the process illustrated in Figure 1 may be used, in accordance with the present invention, to produce a mix of cementitious material with water.
- a bag filling process in accordance with the present invention comprising the steps of providing a perforated or porous, water-soluble bag
- the filled bag produced in this manner, may then be stored, indefinitely, with any ingress of moisture into the bag being prevented by the non-permeable, waterproof layer applied thereto.
- cementitious material may be packed in a two-ply bag comprising an inner layer of water-soluble material and a non- permeable outer layer of waterproof material , the two layers being either co-extruded as a sheet or tube or formed from two sheets, superimposed and bonded together.
- the surface of the bag 2 can be punctured, for example by hitting the surface of the bag with a shovel, and the punctured bag placed in the drum 6 of a cement mixer, to which a quantity of water is then added.
