ABSTRACT:
A reclosable package has a slider-operated string zipper joined to the receptacle mouth. The slider includes a plow that pries apart the zipper sections lying in its path during slider travel in an opening direction; first and second sidewalls disposed on opposite sides of the plow and bounding a slider tunnel, and first and second ledges supported by the plow. The first zipper part passes through a first space between the first sidewall and the plow, while the second zipper part passes through a second space between the second sidewall and the plow. The first ledge is the only portion of the slider that underlies any portion of the first zipper part, while the second ledge is the only portion of the slider that underlies any portion of the second zipper part. Accordingly, the ledges retain the zipper parts with the spaces on the opposing sides of the plow.
