Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'emballage d'une pluralité d'objets.The present invention relates to a device for packaging a plurality of objects.

Il est habituel, pour le stockage et/ou le transport d'une pluralité d'objets, d'emballer ceux-ci dans un emballage communIt is usual, for the storage and / or the transport of a plurality of objects, to package these in a common packaging

Cependant, une telle façon de faire présente un certain nombre d'inconvénients. En effet, en ouvrant ledit emballage commun, afin de prélever un ou plusieurs des objets qui y sont contenus, on est amené à détruire une partie de la structure de l'emballage. L'accès auxdits objets est ainsi réalisé au détriment de l'intégrité de l'emballage dans son ensemble. En d'autres termes, après prélèvement des objets souhaités, il n'est plus possible de rendre audit emballage sa structure initiale. Les objets restants dans l'emballage deviennent ainsi facilement accessibles depuis l'extérieur.However, such an approach has a number of drawbacks. Indeed, by opening said common packaging, in order to remove one or more of the objects contained therein, it is necessary to destroy part of the structure of the packaging. Access to said objects is thus achieved at the expense of the integrity of the packaging as a whole. In other words, after removal of the desired objects, it is no longer possible to restore said packaging to its initial structure. The objects remaining in the packaging thus become easily accessible from the outside.

Par ailleurs, quel que soit le nombre d'objets prélevés dudit emballage, le volume de l'emballage, et donc l'encombrement de ce dernier, demeurent bien évidemment constants.Furthermore, whatever the number of objects removed from said packaging, the volume of the packaging, and therefore the size of the latter, obviously remain constant.

Par le brevet GB-A-873 302, on connaît déjà un dispositif d'emballage d'une pluralité d'objets, comprenant une pluralité de récipients individuels et une enveloppe, lesdits récipients étant juxtaposés de telle sorte que le dispositif d'emballage présente une forme parallélépipédique, et l'enveloppe étant commune et solidaire individuellement de chacun desdits récipients, et sécable en une pluralité d'éléments d'enveloppe, dont chacun correspond à l'un desdits récipients.Patent GB-A-873,302 already discloses a device for packaging a plurality of objects, comprising a plurality of individual containers and an envelope, said containers being juxtaposed so that the packaging device has a parallelepiped shape, and the envelope being common and individually secured to each of said containers, and breakable into a plurality of envelope elements, each of which corresponds to one of said containers.

Grâce à un tel dispositif d'emballage, quel que soit le nombre d'objets qui en sont prélevés, les objets restants sont protégés dans l'emballage, tout en évitant que ledit dispositif d'emballage présente un encombrement inutile.Thanks to such a packaging device, whatever the number of objects which are removed therefrom, the remaining objects are protected in the packaging, while avoiding that said packaging device presents an unnecessary bulk.

Ainsi, lorsqu'on souhaite prélever un ou plusieurs des objets contenus dans ledit emballage, il suffit de séparer le ou les récipients correspondants du restant du dispositif d'emballage en détachant le ou les éléments d'enveloppe correspondants. Les récipients restants conservent leur intégrité, et le objets qui y sont contenus restent protégés par le éléments d'enveloppe correspondants.Thus, when it is desired to take one or more of the objects contained in said packaging, it suffices to separate the corresponding container or containers from the rest of the packaging device by detaching the corresponding envelope element or elements. The remaining containers retain their integrity, and the objects contained therein are protected by the corresponding envelope elements.

Par ailleurs, l'encombrement dudit dispositif d'emballage diminue au fur et à mesure que l'on y prélève des objets, puisque les récipients individuels contenant lesdits objets sont en même temps séparés du restant du dispositif d'emballage.Furthermore, the size of said packaging device decreases as objects are removed therefrom, since the individual containers containing said objects are at the same time separated from the rest of the packaging device.

La présente invention a pour objet de perfectionner ce dispositif d'emballage connu.The object of the present invention is to improve this known packaging device.

A cette fin, selon l'invention, le dispositif d'emballage du type décrit ci-dessus est caractérisé en ce que chacun desdits éléments d'enveloppe est seulement formé de trois volets, à savoir un volet central et deux volets latéraux recouvrant au moins partiellement le dessus et deux faces latérales opposées du récipient correspondant, respectivement, et en ce que chacun desdits volets latéraux dudit élément d'enveloppe est fixé à la face latérale correspondante dudit récipient par l'intermédiaire d'une languette reliée de façon détachable à ladite face latérale.To this end, according to the invention, the packaging device of the type described above is characterized in that each of said envelope elements is only formed from three flaps, namely a central flap and two lateral flaps covering at least partially the top and two opposite side faces of the corresponding container, respectively, and in that each of said side flaps of said envelope member is fixed to the corresponding side face of said container by means of a tab detachably connected to said lateral face.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, chacune desdites faces latérales du récipient comprend un évidement traversé par ladite languette et le volet latéral correspondant dudit élément d'enveloppe est percé d'un orifice d'accès à ladite languette.In a particular embodiment of the invention, each of said lateral faces of the container comprises a recess traversed by said tongue and the lateral flap corresponding to said envelope element is pierced with an orifice for access to said tongue.

Selon un autre mode particulier de l'invention, chacun desdits récipients est constitué de deux moitiés de récipient détachables l'une de l'autre, formant deux barquettes disposées en regard l'une de l'autre et reliées l'une à l'autre par au moins un bord commun.According to another particular embodiment of the invention, each of said containers consists of two container halves detachable from each other, forming two trays arranged opposite one another and connected to each other. other by at least one common edge.

De préférence, ledit évidement est défini par deux côtés en regard desdites barquettes et lesdits côtés sont solidarisés par un rabat transversal audit évidement, issu des côtés solidarisables desdites barquettes.Preferably, said recess is defined by two sides opposite said trays and said sides are secured by a flap transverse to said recess, coming from the integral sides of said trays.

Avantageusement, ladite languette est reliée audit rabat de façon détachable.Advantageously, said tongue is detachably connected to said flap.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les volets centraux d'éléments d'enveloppe adjacents sont reliés par une bande détachable.According to another characteristic of the invention, the central flaps of adjacent envelope elements are connected by a detachable strip.

De préférence, le dispositif est réalisé en carton ondulé.Preferably, the device is made of corrugated cardboard.

Les figures du dessin annexé feront bien comprendre comment l'invention peut être réalisée. Sur ces figures des références identiques désignent des éléments semblables.The figures of the appended drawing will make it clear how the invention can be implemented. In these figures, identical references designate similar elements.

La figure 1 est une vue d'ensemble, en perspective, du dispositif d'emballage selon l'invention.Figure 1 is an overall perspective view of the packaging device according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue semblable à la figure 1 lorsqu'un élément d'enveloppe est partiellement détaché d'un récipient correspondant.Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure 1 when an envelope member is partially detached from a corresponding container.

La figure 3 est une vue semblable à la figure 2, mais lorsqu'un récipient et son élément d'enveloppe sont complètement séparés du reste du dispositif d'emballage.Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, but when a container and its envelope member are completely separated from the rest of the packaging device.

La figure 4 est une vue, en perspective, d'un récipient formé de deux barquettes.Figure 4 is a perspective view of a container formed of two trays.

La figure 5 est une vue développée d'un récipient.Figure 5 is a developed view of a container.

La figure 6 est une vue développée de l'enveloppe du dispositif d'emballage.Figure 6 is a developed view of the envelope of the packaging device.

Le dispositif d'emballage 1, selon l'invention, montré par ces figures, comprend une pluralité de récipients 2 individuels, juxtaposés les uns aux autres, et une enveloppe 3 commune, solidaire individuellement de chacun des récipients 2, et sécable en une pluralité d'éléments d'enveloppe 4, dont chacun correspond à l'un desdits récipients 2.The packaging device 1, according to the invention, shown by these figures, comprises a plurality of individual containers 2, juxtaposed with each other, and a common envelope 3, individually secured to each of the containers 2, and divisible into a plurality envelope elements 4, each of which corresponds to one of said containers 2.

Lesdits récipients 2, tous identiques, présentent, dans l'exemple de réalisation montré, une forme parallélépipédique, et sont juxtaposés les uns aux autres de telle sorte que le dispositif d'emballage présente aussi une forme parallélépipédique.Said containers 2, all identical, have, in the embodiment shown, a parallelepiped shape, and are juxtaposed with each other so that the packaging device also has a parallelepiped shape.

Lesdits éléments d'enveloppe 4 comportent un volet central 5 et deux volets latéraux 6 recouvrant au moins partiellement le dessus 7 et deux faces latérales 8,9 opposées du récipient 2 correspondant, respectivement.Said envelope elements 4 comprise a central flap 5 and two lateral flaps 6 at least partially covering the top 7 and two opposite lateral faces 8, 9 of the corresponding container 2, respectively.

Afin de séparer lesdits éléments d'enveloppe 4 l'un de l'autre, des lignes de prédécoupe 10 et une bande détachable 11 sont prévues dans ladite enveloppe 3 entre chaque paire de récipients 2 adjacents.In order to separate said envelope elements 4 from one another, precut lines 10 and a detachable strip 11 are provided in said envelope 3 between each pair of adjacent containers 2.

Les lignes de prédécoupe 10 relient les volets latéraux 6 de deux éléments d'enveloppe adjacents 4 et la bande détachable 11 relie les volets centraux 5 des éléments d'enveloppe 4.The precut lines 10 connect the side flaps 6 of two adjacent envelope elements 4 and the detachable strip 11 connects the central flaps 5 of the envelope elements 4.

Par ailleurs, chaque récipient 2 est constitué de deux moitiés de récipients détachables l'une de l'autre, formant deux barquettes 12 (figure 4). Ces deux barquettes 12 sont disposées en regard l'une de l'autre et reliées l'une à l'autre par un bord commun 13. Les barquettes sont constituées d'un fond 25 et de quatre côtés 15,16,17,18, comme on peut mieux le voir sur la figure 4.Furthermore, each container 2 consists of two halves of containers detachable from each other, forming two trays 12 (Figure 4). These two trays 12 are arranged opposite one another and connected to each other by a common edge 13. The trays consist of a bottom 25 and four sides 15,16,17,18 , as can best be seen in Figure 4.

Si la face de fond 14 d'un récipient 2 est constituée de deux côtés 15 de barquette reliés par le bord 13, le dessus 7 et les deux faces latérales 8,9 du récipient sont constitués chacun de deux côtés de barquette 16,17,18, respectivement, non reliés. En effet, un évidement 19 sépare les côtés 16,17,18, respectivement.If the bottom face 14 of a container 2 consists of two sides 15 of the tray connected by the edge 13, the top 7 and the two lateral faces 8, 9 of the container each consist of two sides of the tray 16, 17, 18, respectively, unrelated. Indeed, a recess 19 separates the sides 16, 17, 18, respectively.

Des rabats 20, issus des côtés 15 solidarisés par le bord 13, réunissent les côtés 17,18 des faces latérales 8,9. Chaque rabat 20 comprend une prédécoupe 21 située dans le prolongement du bord 13.Flaps 20, coming from the sides 15 secured by the edge 13, join the sides 17, 18 of the side faces 8, 9. Each flap 20 comprises a precut 21 situated in the extension of the edge 13.

Une languette 22 est reliée audit rabat 20 par une prédécoupe 23. Cette languette 22 est également reliée aux volets latéraux 6 de l'élément d'enveloppe 4 par une matière adhésive, par exemple de la colle. De plus, chaque volet latéral 6 des éléments d'enveloppe 4 est percé d'un orifice d'accès 24 à la languette 22.A tongue 22 is connected to said flap 20 by a precut 23. This tongue 22 is also connected to the side flaps 6 of the casing element 4 by an adhesive material, for example glue. In addition, each lateral flap 6 of the envelope elements 4 is pierced with an access orifice 24 to the tongue 22.

Pour désolidariser un élément d'enveloppe 4 et un récipient 2 du dispositif d'emballage, par exemple, l'utilisateur peut introduire un doigt dans l'orifice d'accès 24. Il exerce une pression avec le doigt sur la languette 22, située en dessous de l'orifice d'accès 24, en tirant la languette vers lui. La languette 22 se détache alors du rabat 20 en restant solidaire de l'élément d'enveloppe 4. En poursuivant cette action, l'utilisateur détache un volet latéral 6. Puis, il enlève la bande détachable 11 de façon à désolidariser le volet central 5 (figure 2).To separate an envelope element 4 and a container 2 from the packaging device, for example, the user can introduce a finger into the access orifice 24. He exerts a pressure with the finger on the tongue 22, located below the access hole 24, pulling the tab towards it. The tongue 22 is then detached from the flap 20 while remaining integral with the envelope element 4. By continuing this action, the user detaches a lateral flap 6. Then, he removes the detachable strip 11 so as to separate the central flap 5 (Figure 2).

Pour séparer complètement l'élément d'enveloppe 4 de son récipient 2 correspondant, l'utilisateur peut effectuer la même opération sur l'autre volet latéral 6 (figure 3).To completely separate the envelope element 4 from its corresponding container 2, the user can perform the same operation on the other side flap 6 (FIG. 3).

En outre, en exerçant une pression au niveau du bord 13, on peut dissocier le récipient 2 en deux barquettes 12 (figure 4).In addition, by exerting pressure at the edge 13, the container 2 can be separated into two trays 12 (FIG. 4).

Bien que le dispositif d'emballage peut être fabriqué en feuille mince d'une matière quelconque, on notera qu'il est préférable qu'il soit réalisé en carton ondulé.Although the packaging device can be made of thin sheet of any material, it should be noted that it is preferable that it be made of corrugated cardboard.
