Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 269 words
A storage bag comprising: a strip of flexible impermeable sheet material having two ends, said strip being folded into three sections to form three walls of the storage bag, with a first section and a second section of the three sections initially forming outermost sections and a third section of the three sections initially located between the first and second sections, a first fold being formed between the first section and the second section, a second fold being formed between the second section and the third section, one of said two ends of said strip being located in the first section and the other of said two ends of said strip being located in the third section, said other end of said strip being located between the first section and the second section and located adjacent to the first fold, said one end of said strip extending beyond the second fold so as to form an identifiable opening for the hand of an individual between the first section and the third section at the second fold, the first section being coextensive with and longer than the second section and the third section and the second section being coextensive with and longer than the third section, and only side edges of said sheet material being sealed at coextensive portions of the first, the second and the third sections so as to allow wrapping of the storage bag two times upon itself around an article with the third section blocking access to the wrapped article within the storage bag and with said one end being located adjacent to said second fold.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 269 words
A storage bag comprising: a strip of flexible impermeable sheet material having two ends, said strip being folded into three sections to form three walls of the storage bag, with a first section and a second section of the three sections initially forming outermost sections and a third section of the three sections initially located between the first and second sections, a first fold being formed between the first section and the second section, a second fold being formed between the second section and the third section, one of said two ends of said strip being located in the first section and the other of said two ends of said strip being located in the third section, said other end of said strip being located between the first section and the second section and located adjacent to the first fold, said one end of said strip extending beyond the second fold so as to form an identifiable opening for the hand of an individual between the first section and the third section at the second fold, the first section being coextensive with and longer than the second section and the third section and the second section being coextensive with and longer than the third section, and only side edges of said sheet material being sealed at coextensive portions of the first, the second and the third sections so as to allow wrapping of the storage bag two times upon itself around an article with the third section blocking access to the wrapped article within the storage bag and with said one end being located adjacent to said second fold.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 330 words
A storage bag and an article comprising in combination: a strip of flexible impermeable sheet material having two ends, said strip being folded into three sections to form three walls of the storage bag, with a first section and a second section of the three sections initially forming outermost sections and a third section of the three sections initially located between the first and second sections, a first fold being formed between the first section and the second section, a second fold being formed between the second section and the third section, one of said two ends of said strip being located in the first section and the other of said two ends of said strip being located in the third section, said other end of said strip being located between the first section and the second section and located adjacent to the first fold, said one end of said strip extending beyond the second fold so as to form an identifiable opening for the hand of an individual between the first section and the third section at the second fold, the first section being coextensive with and longer than the second section and the third section and the second section being coextensive with and longer than the third section, side edges of said sheet material being sealed at coextensive portions of the first, the second and the third sections so as to allow wrapping of the storage bag two times upon itself around the article with the third section blocking access to the wrapped article within the storage bag and with said one end being located adjacent to said second fold, and an adhesive strip securing one of the two outermost sections of the sheet material to an outer side of the article prior to the double wrapping of the article, said adhesive strip being located along one of said first and second folds and extending at least partially along both of said side edges of said sheet material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 330 words
A storage bag and an article comprising in combination: a strip of flexible impermeable sheet material having two ends, said strip being folded into three sections to form three walls of the storage bag, with a first section and a second section of the three sections initially forming outermost sections and a third section of the three sections initially located between the first and second sections, a first fold being formed between the first section and the second section, a second fold being formed between the second section and the third section, one of said two ends of said strip being located in the first section and the other of said two ends of said strip being located in the third section, said other end of said strip being located between the first section and the second section and located adjacent to the first fold, said one end of said strip extending beyond the second fold so as to form an identifiable opening for the hand of an individual between the first section and the third section at the second fold, the first section being coextensive with and longer than the second section and the third section and the second section being coextensive with and longer than the third section, side edges of said sheet material being sealed at coextensive portions of the first, the second and the third sections so as to allow wrapping of the storage bag two times upon itself around the article with the third section blocking access to the wrapped article within the storage bag and with said one end being located adjacent to said second fold, and an adhesive strip securing one of the two outermost sections of the sheet material to an outer side of the article prior to the double wrapping of the article, said adhesive strip being located along one of said first and second folds and extending at least partially along both of said side edges of said sheet material.
