Abstract

Abstract The present application is directed to a package material for microwave cooking which is obtained by integrally laminating a microwave heating element, which generates heat when irradiated with microwave, to a base material to form a sheet; and providing, on the sheet, many slits in the form of broken lines, in parallel, and in alternation between the adjacent ones.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 104 words
A package material for packages which are adapted to tightly and conformably wrap about a food for microwave irradiation, said package material comprising, at least one heating element integrally laminated to a base material to form a sheet, said at least one heating element being composed of a metallic layer which is formed by the vacuum vapor deposition of a metal and which generates heat on the absorption of microwave, and a heat-resistant plastic film layer with which said metallic layer is covered; and providing, on said sheet, many slits in the form of broken lines, in parallel, and in alternation between adjacent slits.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 104 words
A package material for packages which are adapted to tightly and conformably wrap about a food for microwave irradiation, said package material comprising, at least one heating element integrally laminated to a base material to form a sheet, said at least one heating element being composed of a metallic layer which is formed by the vacuum vapor deposition of a metal and which generates heat on the absorption of microwave, and a heat-resistant plastic film layer with which said metallic layer is covered; and providing, on said sheet, many slits in the form of broken lines, in parallel, and in alternation between adjacent slits.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
A package material for microwave cooking according to claim 1 wherein two heating elements are laminated to the opposite surfaces of said base material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A package material for microwave cooking according to claim 1 wherein two heating elements are laminated to one surface of said base material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
