transporting food for picnicking, wherein a sandwich and fruits are
packed in one bag. However, the sandwich may get wet or soaked by
the fruits. Therefore, most people would like to separate the
sandwich and the fruits into different food bags. Packing the
sandwich with the snacks, as another example, a person may put the
sandwich and snacks in one bag for convenience or utilizing the
usage of the bag, so that the flavor may be mixed and destroyed the
taste of the original food. It is worth mentioning that the food
bag has a standard size that it is a waste for the food bag to
store a small amount of food, such as the snacks.
[0006] For solving those problems, a bag having different pockets
is provided for separating the different foods in one bag so as to
utilize the space of the bag. Though this type of bag solved the
mixing different foods problems, the shared opening makes no choose
but opening all the pockets at the same time. It is not only
inconvenient but also hard to keep it fresh when the single shared
opening is opened for all the pockets.
[0007] In order to separate the different foods, a container bag
for segregating the different foods in one container bag is also
provided. The bag has more than two compartments for housing the
different foods such as two liquid foods. However, the separated
compartments are permanently sealed. It's impossible to reuse the
bag or re-close the bag after the bag is unsealedly opened.

[0045] It is worth to mention that the container bag according to
the first and second embodiments can be manufactured via the
conventional manufacturing method which provides two rolls of
flexible sheets. By overlapping the flexible sheets with each other
and forming the resealable lock 20, 20', the first and second
layers 11, 12, 11', 12' with the built-in first and second zippers
21, 21' are formed. Then, by cutting and heat-sealing the two
flexible sheets in a predetermined dimension, the container bag can
be manufactured with multiple sealing pockets 13, 13'.
[0046] Referring to FIGS. 5A to 5C of the drawings, the container
bag can have different pocket configurations according to the above
first and second preferred embodiments. Accordingly, at least two
of the sealing openings 131, 131' of the sealing pockets 13, 13'
are extended in a parallel manner. It is appreciated that one of
the sealing opening 131, 131' is extended perpendicularly to
another sealing opening 131, 131'.
[0047] An example is shown in FIG. 5A to illustrate the first
alternative pocket configuration. The bag body 10 provides three
sealing pockets 13A, 13B, 13C, wherein the first sealing pocket 13A
has a size larger than the size of each of the second and third
sealing pockets 13B, 13C, while the second and third sealing
pockets 13B, 13C are identical.
[0048] In other words, the larger first sealing pocket 13A is
combined with two smaller second and third sealing pockets 13B, 13C
to form a first alternative pocket configuration. Since the bag
body 10 provides three sealing pockets 13A, 13B, 13C, there are
three sealing openings 131A, 13B, 13C and three zip lockers 21A,
21B, 21C.
[0049] The bag body 10 has a first sealing portion 14A provided
along the centerline of the bag body 10 to form a first partition
between the first sealing pocket 13A and the second and third
sealing pockets 13B, 13C. A second sealing portion 14B is
perpendicularly extended from the first sealing portion 14A to form
a second partition between the second and third sealing pockets
13B, 13C.
[0050] The first zip locker 21A is provided along the first sealing
opening 131A of the first sealing pocket 13A along the peripheral
edge of the bag body 10. A second zip locker 21B and a third zip
locker 21C are provided at the second sealing openings 131B of the
second sealing pocket 13B and the first sealing opening 131C of the
third sealing pocket 13C respectively, wherein the second zip
locker 21B and the third zip locker 21C are aligned with each other
end-to-end. In addition, the second and third zip lockers 21B, 21C
are extended along the second and third sealing openings 131B, 131C
respectively at a position adjacent and parallel to the first
sealing portion 14A. In addition, the second and third zip lockers
21B, 21C are extended parallel to the first zip locker 21A.
Therefore, three independent sealing pockets 13A, 13B, 13C are
formed to provide the individual air-tight chambers to securely
seal the items therein while each of the sealing pockets 13A, 13B,
13C can be opened individually via the respective zip locker 21A,
21B, 21C.
[0051] Another example is shown in FIG. 5B to illustrate the second
alternative pocket configuration. The bag body 10 provides two
sealing pockets 13D, 13E side-by-side, wherein the first sealing
pocket 13D has a size larger than the size of the second sealing
pocket 13E. In other words, since the bag body 10 provides two
sealing pockets 13D, 13E, there are two sealing openings 131D, 131E
and two zip lockers 21D, 21E. The bag body 10 has a sealing portion
14 provided along the centerline of the bag body 10 to form a
partition between the first sealing pocket 13D and the second
sealing pocket 13E.
[0052] The first zip locker 21D is provided along the first sealing
opening 131D of the first sealing pocket 13D along the peripheral
edge of the bag body 10. A second zip locker 21E is provided at the
second sealing openings 131E of the second sealing pocket 13E. In
addition, the second zip locker 21E is extended along the second
sealing opening 131E at a position adjacent and parallel to the
sealing portion 14. In addition, the second zip locker 21E is
extended perpendicularly to the first zip locker 21D. Therefore,
two independent sealing pockets 13D, 13E are formed to provide the
individual air-tight chambers to securely seal the items therein
while each of the sealing pockets 13D, 13E can be opened
individually via the respective zip locker 21D, 21E.
[0053] Another example is shown in FIG. 5C to illustrate the third
alternative pocket configuration. The bag body 10 provides two
sealing pockets 13F, 13G as a top pocket and a bottom pocket,
wherein the first and second sealing pockets 13F, 13G are identical
in size and shape. Since the bag body 10 provides two sealing
pockets 13F, 13G, there are two sealing openings 131F, 131G and two
zip lockers 21F, 21G. The bag body 10 has a sealing portion 14
provided along the centerline of the bag body 10 to form a
partition between the first sealing pocket 13F and the second
sealing pocket 13G.
[0054] The first zip locker 21F is provided along the first sealing
opening 131F of the first sealing pocket 13F along the peripheral
edge of the bag body 10. A second zip locker 21G is provided at the
second sealing openings 131G of the second sealing pocket 13G. In
addition, the second zip locker 21G is extended along the second
sealing opening 131G at a position adjacent and parallel to the
sealing portion 14. In addition, the second zip locker 21 G is
extended parallel to the first zip locker 21D. Therefore, two
independent sealing pockets 13F, 13G are formed to provide the
individual air-tight chambers to securely seal the items therein
while each of the sealing pockets 13F, 13G can be opened
individually via the respective zip locker 21F, 21G.
[0055] In order to manufacture the container bag with multiple
sealing pockets 13, the present invention further provides a
manufacturing process to make the container bag, as shown in FIG.
6. As an example shown in FIG. 5A, the three sealing pockets 13A,
13B, 13C are formed individually via the conventional process of
the container bag. Accordingly, each of the sealing pockets 13A,
13B, 13C has a peripheral margin portion 130A, 130B, 130C remained
uncut.
[0056] Accordingly, the margin portion 130B, 130C of the second and
third sealing pockets 13B, 13C are overlapped and sealed with the
margin portion 130A of the first sealing pocket 13A to form the
first sealing portion 14A of the bag body 10. The margin portion
130B of the second sealing pocket 13B is overlapped and sealed with
the margin portion 130C of the third sealing pocket 13C to form the
second sealing portion 14 of the bag body 10. Then, the rest of the
margin portions 130A, 130B, 130C of the sealing pockets 13A, 13B,
13C will be cut to trim the margin edge of the bag body 10 such
that the container bag having multiple sealing pockets and multiple
sealable locks is formed. Accordingly, the container bag with
multiple sealable locks can be produced in the way which is similar
to the conventional producing method without other special machine
or complicated steps involving, so as to minimize the manufacturing
cost of the container bag.
[0057] One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment
