Description
DISPOSITIF DE CONDITIONNEMENT ET DE DISTRIBUTION
DU TYPE FLACON-POCHE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de condi-tionnement et de distribution de produits fluides, et plus particulièrement une poche souple pour dispositif de condi-tionnement et de distribution de produits fluides, liquides ou pâteux, du type flacon-poche, c'est-à-dire comportant une poche souple placée dans un récipient rigide et associée à une pompe ou une valve, permettant de conserver le produit fluide dans la poche souple à l'abri de l'air dans de bonnes conditions, et d'assurer sa distribution hors de la poche en actionnant la pompe ou la valve.
Les dispositifs de conditionnement et de distribution de fluides du type flacon-poche sont bien connus. Ces dispositifs comportent généralement un récipient à coque rigide dans lequel est placée une poche souple rétractable, qui se rétracte au fur et à mesure que le produit en est extrait.
L'expulsion du produit hors de la poche peut être obtenue au moyen d'une pompe "airless" ou sans reprise d'air, ou sous la pression d'un gaz propulseur agissant dans le flacon, sur la paroi de la poche. Dans le cas de l'expulsion du produit hors de la poche au moyen d'une pompe sans reprise d'air, un évent est prévu, généralement dans le fond ou dans le col du flacon, pour permettre à l'air extérieur de pénétrer dans l'espace situé entre le flacon et la poche à chaque actionnement de la pompe et permettre ainsi à la poche de se rétracter, en maintenant une pression suffisante sur ses parois.
Un exemple de réalisation suivant cette technique est décrit dans le brevet FR 2.723.356 relatif à un dispositif comportant une poche en matière plastique souple, telle que polyéthylène ou polypropylène, placée dans un récipient rigide dont le col comporte une entrée d'air.
Une autre exemple de flacon-poche est décrit dans le brevet FR 2.827.844 relatif à un dispositif comportant une poche souple étanche placée dans un flacon rigide, associée à
P1 R-7 awn PACKAGING AND DISPENSING DEVICE
TYPE FLACON-POCHE
The present invention relates to a device for distribution and distribution of fluid products, and more particularly a flexible pouch for a device for distribution and distribution of fluid, liquid or pasty, of the pocket-bottle type, that is to say comprising a flexible pouch placed in a rigid container and associated with a pump or a valve, to keep the fluid in the soft pocket away from the air in good conditions, and to ensure its distribution out of the pocket in actuating the pump or valve.
The packaging and distribution devices of Flask-type fluids are well known. These devices generally comprise a rigid-shell container in which is placed a retractable flexible pocket, which retracts as the product is extracted.
The expulsion of the product out of the pocket can be obtained at means of an "airless" pump or without air intake, or under the pressure of a propellant gas acting in the flask, on the wall of the pocket. In the case of the expulsion of the product of the bag by means of a pump without air intake, a vent is provided, usually in the bottom or in the neck of the bottle, to allow outside air to enter the space between the bottle and the bag each time the pump and thus allow the pocket to retract, now a sufficient pressure on its walls.
An example of embodiment according to this technique is described in patent FR 2,723,356 relating to a device having a flexible plastic bag, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, placed in a rigid container whose neck has an air inlet.
Another example of a pocket bottle is described in the Patent FR 2,827,844 relating to a device comprising a waterproof flexible pouch placed in a rigid bottle, associated with P1 R-7 awn
2 une pompe ou une valve, dans lequel la poche comprend une paroi cylindrique constituée par une feuille métallique ou de matière plastique enroulée sur les bords de deux flasques dont l'un forme le fond de la poche et l'autre une bague de fixation au flacon et à la pompe ou à la valve.
La demande WO 97.20757 décrit un procédé de fabrication d'une poche tubulaire en matière plastique destinée à un aérosol, dont l'ouverture est soudée sur une bague tandis que l'autre extrémité est repliée et scellée pour former le fond de la poche.
Les produits contenus dans les poches sont souvent sensibles à l'oxydation sous l'action de l'oxygène de l'air et peuvent se dégrader si de l'air s'introduit dans la poche en raison d'un manque d'étanchéité. Les défauts d'étanchéité se rencontrent le plus souvent au niveau de la jonction de la poche et de la pompe. Ils peuvent aussi résulter d'une certaine porosité des matériaux utilisés pour la réalisation de la poche. De plus, la paroi de la poche des dispositifs connus peut former des plis en se rétractant, et ces plis risquent d'entraîner des déchirures susceptibles de laisser passer de l'air qui atteint alors l'intérieur de la poche, et par suite compromet la préservation de l'intégrité du produit qui y est contenu. Enfin, les plis formés par la paroi de la poche au cours de sa rétraction engendrent des volumes de rétention de produit et limitent ainsi l'efficacité de la distribution de celui-ci.
Une technique pour limiter le risque de déchirure de la poche est décrite dans le brevet FR 2.770.834, qui prévoit d'inclure dans la poche, réalisée en matière souple telle que feuille plastique ou d'aluminium, un flotteur libre empêchant une trop forte rétraction de la poche et limitant ainsi les risques de déchirure. Cependant, cette technique a pour inconvénient de former des volumes de rétention importants.
Les flacons-poches sont couramment fabriqués par extrusion ou injection de matières plastiques. Le flacon peut être fabriqué par emboutissage dans le cas d'une paroi 2 a pump or a valve, in which the pocket comprises a cylindrical wall constituted by a metallic sheet or plastic material wound on the edges of two flanges of which one forms the bottom of the pocket and the other a ring of attachment to the bottle and pump or to the valve.
The application WO 97/20757 describes a manufacturing process a plastic tubular pocket intended for aerosol, the opening of which is welded to a ring while the other end is folded and sealed to form the bottom from the pocket.
The products contained in the pockets are often sensitive to oxidation under the action of oxygen from the air and can degrade if air gets into the pocket.
because of a lack of tightness. The leaks are meet most often at the junction of the pocket and pump. They can also result from certain porosity of the materials used for the realization from the pocket. In addition, the pocket wall of the devices known can form folds by retracting, and these folds risk of tearing pass air that then reaches the inside of the pocket, and consequently compromises the preservation of the integrity of the product which is contained therein. Finally, the folds formed by the wall of the pocket during its retraction generate volumes of product retention and thus limit the effectiveness of the distribution of it.
A technique to limit the risk of tearing pocket is described in patent FR 2,770,834, which provides to include in the pocket, made of flexible material such as plastic or aluminum foil, a free float preventing too much retraction of the pocket and thus limiting the risk of tearing. However, this technique disadvantage of forming large retention volumes.
Pouch bottles are commonly manufactured by extrusion or injection of plastics. The bottle can be made by stamping in the case of a wall
3 métallique telle que l'aluminium, ou par injection ou injection soufflage dans le cas d'une paroi en matière plastique, tandis que la poche souple est généralement fabriquée par injection soufflage ou extrusion soufflage de polyéthylène ou de polypropylène dans un moule adapté.
Les poches peuvent aussi être réalisées en feuilles d'aluminium ou en matières multicouches du type plastique /
aluminium présentent de bonnes qualités d'étanchéité de leur paroi, comme dans le brevet FR 2.827.844 précité. Les poches de ce type sont réalisées sous forme de feuilles superposées, soudées par leur bord, s'adaptant sur un col ou une bague rigide. La fabrication de telles poches est relativement simple, mais elle présente l'inconvénient que la zone de jonction des deux bords opposés de la feuille pour former le cylindre présente une surépaisseur. De plus, cette surépaisseur laisse apparaître l'épaisseur de la couche formant la feuille, et le risque de migration de traces de composés contenus dans la couche vers le produit introduit dans la poche n'est pas négligeable dans cette zone non protégée, surtout dans le cas d'un film multicouche comportant une couche métallique. Le brevet US 5.248.063 décrit une poche laminée formée à partir d'une feuille multicouche dont le chant est recouvert d'un film plastique afin d'éviter le déla-minage de la feuille. Une technique pour appliquer un ruban sur les bords jointifs d'une feuille enroulée suivant un cylindre est décrite dans les brevets US 3.066.063 et DE 1729018.
On connaît diverses techniques pour souder l'un à l'autre les deux bords d'une feuille comme dans les brevets FR 2.511.974 et CA 1.003.350, mais il est souvent difficile d'obtenir et de maintenir une bonne étanchéité des soudures des bords des feuilles métalliques, par exemple en aluminium, en raison des déformations et des tensions auxquelles elles sont soumises en cours d'utilisation. Si le soudage est renforcé et forme un pli pour assurer l'étanchéité, il en WO 2010/125303 metal such as aluminum, or by injection or blow molding in the case of a wall of material plastic, while the flexible pouch is usually manufactured by injection blow molding or extrusion blow molding polyethylene or polypropylene in a suitable mold.
The pockets can also be made of sheets of aluminum or plastic-type multilayer materials /
aluminum have good sealing qualities of their wall, as in the patent FR 2,827,844 supra. Pockets of this type are made in the form of superimposed sheets, welded by their edge, adapting on a collar or a ring rigid. The manufacture of such pockets is relatively simple, but it has the disadvantage that the junction of the two opposite edges of the sheet to form the cylinder has an extra thickness. In addition, this overthickness reveals the thickness of the layer forming the leaf, and the risk of migration of traces of compounds contained in the layer towards the introduced product in the pocket is not negligible in this area not protected, especially in the case of a multilayer film a metal layer. US Patent 5,248,063 describes a pocket laminate formed from a multilayer sheet whose The song is covered with a plastic film to prevent mining of the leaf. A technique for applying a ribbon on the contiguous edges of a rolled sheet following a cylinder is described in US Patents 3,066,063 and DE 1729018.
Various techniques are known for welding one to the other the two edges of a leaf as in the patents FR 2,511,974 and CA 1.003,350, but it is often difficult to obtain and maintain a good sealing of welds edges of the metal sheets, for example aluminum, because of the deformations and tensions to which they are submitted in use. If welding is reinforced and forms a fold to ensure watertightness, it WO 2010/12530
4 PCT/FR2010/050804 résulte une nervure qui nuit à la bonne rétraction de la poche et à la restitution des produits qu'elle contient.
Il existe donc un besoin de dispositifs du type flacon-poche, présentant une bonne sécurité en réduisant autant que possible le risque de contamination entre la matière consti-tuant la paroi de la poche et le produit qu'elle contient.
Il existe aussi un besoin de dispositifs du type flacon-poche, de fabrication simple et peu coûteuse, comprenant une poche pouvant s'adapter aisément aux quantités de produits que l'on souhaite y introduire et au volume du flacon, sans volume mort excessif entre poche et flacon, sans perte d'étanchéité
et aisément recyclables, tout en procurant une bonne résis-tance mécanique.
La présente invention a précisément pour objet un dispositif de conditionnement et de distribution de produit fluide du type flacon-poche présentant une bonne sécurité vis-à-vis des risques de contamination des produits contenus dans la poche.
L'invention a également pour objet un procédé de fabri-cation de flacon-poche pouvant utiliser des matériaux simples ou complexes selon l'utilisation envisagée, aisément recy-clables, utilisant des quantités minimales de matière, pour le flacon et pour la poche et présentant une excellente résis-tance mécanique, plus particulièrement une excellente résis-tance aux chocs.
Le dispositif de conditionnement et de distribution de produit fluide suivant la présente invention est du type comportant une poche souple étanche placée dans un flacon rigide, associée à une pompe ou une valve, la poche comprenant une paroi cylindrique constituée par au moins une feuille enroulée suivant un cylindre dont l'un des bords latéraux est fixé de manière étanche à un flasque plein formant le fond de la poche, et l'autre est fixé de manière étanche à un flasque annulaire formant une bague de fixation au flacon, et il se distingue notamment en ce que les deux bords longitudinaux de la feuille sont fixés l'un sur l'autre de manière étanche et le chant du bord interne est masqué par une bande souple de recouvrement.
Suivant une forme de réalisation de l'invention, la bande de recouvrement est fixée sur chacun des deux bords longi-4 PCT / FR2010 / 050804 results in a rib that impairs the good retraction of the pocket and the return of the products it contains.
There is therefore a need for devices of the bottle-type pocket, presenting good security by reducing as much as the risk of contamination between the constituent material killing the wall of the bag and the product it contains.
There is also a need for bottle-type devices pocket, simple and inexpensive to manufacture, including a pocket that can easily adapt to the quantities of products that it is desired to introduce and to the volume of the bottle, without volume excessive death between bag and bottle, without loss of seal and easily recyclable, while providing a good resistance mechanical strength.
The present invention specifically relates to a product packaging and dispensing device fluid of the pocket-bottle type having a good safety vis-the risks of contamination of the products contained in the pocket.
The subject of the invention is also a manufacturing process Pouch-bottle cation that can use simple materials or complex depending on the intended use, easily recy-using minimum quantities of material for the bottle and for the pouch and with excellent resistance mechanical resistance, more particularly an excellent resistance shock resistance.
The packaging and distribution device of fluid product according to the present invention is of the type having a sealed flexible pouch placed in a bottle rigid, associated with a pump or a valve, the pocket comprising a cylindrical wall constituted by at least one sheet rolled along a cylinder one of whose side edges is sealingly attached to a full flange forming the bottom of the pocket, and the other is attached to a flange tightly ring forming a ring for fixing the bottle, and it is distinguishes in particular that the two longitudinal edges of the sheet are tightly attached to one another and the edge of the inner edge is masked by a flexible band of recovery.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the band cover is attached to each of the two longitudinal edges
5 tudinaux de la feuille, de part et d'autre de leur jonction sur la paroi interne de la feuille.
Suivant une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention, la bande de recouvrement enveloppe le chant du bord interne de la feuille et se replie entre les deux bords. Il est alors soudé
en même temps que les bords de la feuille lors de la formation du tube cylindrique. La largeur de la bande de recouvrement varie selon les dimensions de la poche, mais elle est généralement comprise entre 2 et 10 mm, et de préférence entre 4 et 6 mm.
Comme indiqué plus haut, la feuille utilisée pour former la paroi de la poche peut être constituée de divers matériaux simples ou complexes, selon l'utilisation envisagée. Son épaisseur peut varier de 20 }gym à 250 }gym environ et est de préférence comprise entre 50 }gym et 150 }gym pour assurer les meilleures conditions de fonctionnement, en particulier de rétraction aisée de la poche dans le flacon au fur et à mesure qu'elle se vide, de manière à procurer un excellent taux de restitution, supérieur à 90%. Ces valeurs peuvent varier en fonction des matériaux utilisés.
La feuille, monocouche ou multicouche, est fixée par ses bords à la périphérie de chaque flasque, et refermée suivant une génératrice du cylindre.
Suivant une forme de réalisation, la poche cylindrique comprend un complexe multicouche associant plusieurs films métalliques, ou une feuille métallique revêtue d'un film plastique sur l'une au moins de ses faces. Ce complexe multicouche est enroulé sur deux flasques qui peuvent être par exemple en métal ou en matière plastique. Une forme particu-lièrement avantageuse de réalisation comprend une feuille d'aluminium intercalée entre au moins deux films plastiques.
Les films plastiques des complexes multicouches peuvent être 5 leaves of the leaf, on both sides of their junction on the inner wall of the sheet.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the cover tape surrounds the edge of the inner edge of the leaf and folds between the two edges. It is then welded at the same time as the edges of the leaf during training cylindrical tube. The width of the lap band varies according to the dimensions of the pocket, but it is generally between 2 and 10 mm, and preferably between 4 and 6 mm.
As mentioned above, the sheet used to form the wall of the pocket can be made of various materials simple or complex, depending on the intended use. His thickness can vary from 20} gym to about 250} gym and is from preferably between 50} gym and 150} gym to ensure the better operating conditions, particularly easy retraction of the bag into the bottle as you go that it empties itself, so as to provide an excellent rate of restitution, greater than 90%. These values may vary in function of the materials used.
The sheet, monolayer or multilayer, is fixed by its edges at the periphery of each flange, and closed next a generator of the cylinder.
According to one embodiment, the cylindrical pocket comprises a multilayer complex associating several films metal, or a foil coated with a film plastic on at least one of its faces. This complex multilayer is wound on two flanges that can be by example metal or plastic. A particular form Advantageously advantageous embodiment comprises a sheet of aluminum interposed between at least two plastic films.
Plastic films of multilayer complexes can be
6 choisis parmi un polyéthylène, un polypropylène, un polyamide, etc.
La feuille multicouche est fixée par ses bords à la périphérie de chaque flasque, et refermée suivant une génératrice du cylindre.
Suivant une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention, la feuille multicouche est un complexe matière plastique /
polymère barrière / matière plastique, et par exemple un film EVOH intercalé entre deux films de polyéthylène ou de polypropylène. L'EVOH est un polymère éthylène - alcool vinylique offrant de bonnes caractéristiques de barrière aux gaz, en particulier à l'oxygène et à la vapeur d'eau.
Le complexe peut aussi comporter quatre couches, soit polyéthylène / polyamide / aluminium / téréphtalate de poly-éthylène, ou encore polyéthylène / téréphtalate de polyéthy-lène / aluminium / polyéthylène. Cette dernière structure multicouche présente l'avantage de faciliter la fixation bord sur bord après enroulement de la feuille, par collage ou par soudage, puisque la partie interne d'un bord de la feuille vient s'appliquer sur la partie externe de l'autre bord, qui est dans une même matière.
Un tel revêtement composite multicouche s'avère parti-culièrement utile lorsqu'une étanchéité rigoureuse est indispensable, ou lorsque la nature du produit contenu dans la poche l'exige.
Suivant une variante, on peut utiliser une feuille d'aluminium enroulée sur deux flasques en métal ou en matière plastique, deux bords opposés de la feuille étant soudés l'un sur l'autre suivant une génératrice du cylindre.
Dans tous les cas, une bande de recouvrement est placée sur la face interne de la feuille formant un tube, sur la jonction des deux bords, comme indiqué ci-dessus. La bande de recouvrement est de préférence réalisée dans une matière identique à celle constituant la couche interne de la feuille.
Par exemple, il est avantageux d'utiliser une feuille 6 chosen from a polyethylene, a polypropylene, a polyamide, etc.
The multilayer sheet is fixed by its edges to the periphery of each flange, and closed according to a generator of the cylinder.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the multilayer sheet is a complex plastic material /
polymer barrier / plastic material, and for example a film EVOH interposed between two films of polyethylene or polypropylene. EVOH is an ethylene-alcohol polymer vinyl offering good barrier characteristics to gas, in particular oxygen and water vapor.
The complex can also have four layers, either polyethylene / polyamide / aluminum / polyethylene terephthalate ethylene, or polyethylene / polyethylene terephthalate lene / aluminum / polyethylene. This last structure multilayer has the advantage of facilitating the attachment edge on edge after winding the sheet, by gluing or by welding, since the inner part of an edge of the sheet comes to apply on the outer part of the other side, which is in the same subject.
Such a multilayer composite coating proves particularly especially useful when a rigorous seal is indispensable, or where the nature of the product contained in the pocket requires it.
According to a variant, it is possible to use a sheet of aluminum wound on two flanges of metal or material plastic, two opposite edges of the sheet being welded one on the other following a generatrix of the cylinder.
In all cases, a cover strip is placed on the inner side of the sheet forming a tube, on the joining of the two edges, as indicated above. The band recovery is preferably made of a material identical to that constituting the inner layer of the sheet.
For example, it is advantageous to use a sheet
7 comprenant au moins une couche de polyéthylène comme couche interne, et une bande de recouvrement en un même polyéthylène.
Ceci permet d'assurer une continuité de la matière formant la couche interne de la poche en contact avec le produit qui y est introduit. Le produit fluide est donc en contact limité à une seule matière. De plus, une fois soudée, la bande de recouvrement a sensiblement la même épaisseur que la couche interne de la feuille.
Suivant une autre variante, on utilise une feuille de carton souple ou un complexe polymère/papier/polymère, de préférence polyéthylène/papier/polyéthylène. Ce type de maté-riau présente l'avantage d'être bien plus aisément recyclable que les multicouches PE/PET/aluminium/PE utilisés dans le domaine technique.
Comme indiqué ci-dessus, la feuille métallique, ou la feuille multicouche, est fixée sur la périphérie de chacun des deux flasques, de préférence par collage ou par soudage, selon la nature du matériau utilisé pour les flasques.
Le procédé de l'invention consiste tout d'abord à
découper la feuille à la dimension voulue, à souder les deux bords opposés de la feuille, de l'intérieur vers l'extérieur pour former une poche tubulaire ouverte que l'on fixe ensuite par ses ouvertures sur les flasques, puis la poche est introduite dans le flacon rigide où elle est maintenue par le flasque annulaire formant bague. Ensuite la bande de recouvrement est découpée puis soudée sur la feuille, côté
intérieur. La feuille est alors enroulée sur elle-même, en gardant la bande de recouvrement sur l'intérieur, et en prenant garde qu'elle recouvre bien la zone de contact entre les extrémités. Le soudage est alors réalisé, et on obtient un tube soudé, avec continuité de la zone intérieure.
La fixation des bords l'un sur l'autre, puis sur les flasques, peut s'effectuer par les techniques classiques de soudage, par exemple soudage par ultrasons, par impulsion, par friction, ou thermique. On utilise de préférence la technique du soudage thermique plus adaptée aux matières utilisées pour 7 comprising at least one layer of polyethylene as a layer internal, and a cover strip of the same polyethylene.
This ensures continuity of the material forming the inner layer of the pocket in contact with the product introduced to it. The fluid product is therefore in contact limited to a single subject. In addition, once welded, the covering strip has substantially the same thickness as the inner layer of the leaf.
According to another variant, a sheet of flexible cardboard or a polymer / paper / polymer complex, preferably polyethylene / paper / polyethylene. This type of material riau has the advantage of being much more easily recyclable PE / PET / aluminum / PE multilayers used in the technical area.
As indicated above, the metal foil, or the multilayer sheet, is attached to the periphery of each of the two flanges, preferably by gluing or welding, according to the nature of the material used for the flanges.
The method of the invention consists first of all in cut the sheet to the desired size, solder the two opposite edges of the leaf, from the inside to the outside to form an open tubular pocket that is then attached by its openings on the flanges, then the pocket is introduced into the rigid bottle where it is held by the annular flange forming a ring. Then the band of cover is cut and then welded onto the sheet, side inside. The leaf is then rolled up on itself, in keeping the lap strip on the inside, and taking care that it covers the contact area between the extremities. The welding is then performed, and we obtain a welded tube, with continuity of the inner zone.
Fixing the edges to one another and then to the flaccid, can be done by conventional techniques of welding, for example ultrasonic welding, pulse welding, friction, or thermal. The technique is preferably used thermal welding more suitable for the materials used for
8 former la paroi de la poche. La fixation peut aussi se faire par collage mais seulement si les produits que la poche est destinée à contenir ne risquent pas d'effet néfaste résultant d'une éventuelle contamination par les composants des colles.
La feuille a initialement une forme aplatie, exigeant de recourir à un outillage adapté pour la mettre en forme et y introduire ensuite le produit. Les opérations de remplissage de la poche utilisée dans l'invention ne nécessitent pas de faire d'abord le vide dans la poche avant de procéder à un remplissage partiel, puis d'opérer dans une dernière étape sous gaz neutre, contrairement à la plupart des poches connues de la technique.
L'un des avantages du procédé de l'invention est qu'il permet d'obtenir des poches de volumes relativement importants (plus de 150 ml par exemple) de forme parfaitement cylindrique en raison du mode de soudage.
Le procédé suivant la présente invention a notamment pour avantage de permettre de fabriquer des poches dont le volume est aisément adapté à celui du flacon et à la quantité de produit que l'on doit introduire dans la poche. Ceci est particulièrement avantageux sur le plan industriel puisque les techniques classiques, en raison de leur coût, impliquent de limiter les gammes de flacons à quelques modèles de dimensions prédéterminées, et par exemple on propose couramment des flacons rigides dont le volume est de 30, 60 ou 90 ml et par conséquent une poche dont le contenu est de 65 ml, par exemple, ne peut être introduite que dans un flacon de 90 ml, d'où résulte un volume mort important entre la poche et le flacon. Suivant la technique de l'invention, le volume de la poche pouvant être aisément adapté à celui du flacon en jouant simplement sur la hauteur et le diamètre des cylindres constituant la poche et le flacon, on peut réduire les volumes morts.
Ceci procure un avantage supplémentaire dans le cas de produits relativement volatils, tels que des alcools, contenus dans la poche, qui peuvent traverser partiellement la paroi, 8 form the wall of the pocket. Fixing can also be done by gluing but only if the products that the pocket is intended to contain are not likely to cause any adverse effect possible contamination by glue components.
The leaf initially has a flattened shape, requiring use appropriate tools to shape it and then introduce the product. Filling operations of the pocket used in the invention do not require first empty the pocket before proceeding to a partial filling, and then operate in a final step under neutral gas, unlike most known pockets of the technique.
One of the advantages of the process of the invention is that it allows to obtain pockets of relatively large volumes (more than 150 ml for example) perfectly cylindrical shape because of the welding mode.
The method according to the present invention has in particular for advantage of making it possible to manufacture pockets whose volume is easily adapted to that of the bottle and to the quantity of product that must be introduced into the pocket. this is particularly advantageous on the industrial level since the classical techniques, because of their cost, involve limit the range of bottles to a few models of dimensions predetermined, and for example, rigid bottles with a volume of 30, 60 or 90 ml and by therefore a pouch with a content of 65 ml, For example, it can only be introduced in a 90 ml bottle, resulting in a significant dead volume between the pocket and the bottle. According to the technique of the invention, the volume of the pocket that can be easily adapted to that of the bottle while playing simply on the height and diameter of the cylinders pouch and bottle, volumes can be reduced dead.
This provides an additional advantage in the case of relatively volatile products, such as alcohols, in the pocket, which can partially cross the wall,
9 selon les matières utilisées : le volume mort réduit est vite saturé ce qui limite alors les pertes de produit.
De plus, les essais de choc vertical par chute libre ("drop test"), effectués sur la base de la norme ASTM D 6344-4, ont montré une sensible amélioration de la résistance aux chocs alors que la présence de la bande de recouvrement introduit une dissymétrie susceptible de nuire à la résis-tance. De plus, la zone de fragilité est située sur la soudure des deux bords l'un à l'autre et cette fragilité est d'autant plus grande que la soudure est plus longue. On sait en effet que l'épaisseur n'a que peu d'influence sur la résistance, contrairement à la longueur de la soudure.
Les essais ont aussi montré que la résistance aux chocs est fortement améliorée lorsque l'assemblage des bords de la feuille formant la poche est fait de telle sorte que la surface interne d'un bord est en contact avec la surface externe de l'autre bord par comparaison avec une poche réalisée suivant les méthodes classiques où les bords sont repliés vers l'extérieur du cylindre, les surfaces internes des bords étant en contact l'une avec l'autre.
Le test consiste à laisser tomber des flacons-poches orientés verticalement sur une hauteur variant de 0,6 m à 4 m.
Chaque poche est constituée d'une feuille multicouche fixée par collage sur deux flasques comme indiqué ci-dessus.
Les couches, de la couche externe vers la couche interne, sont polyéthylène / téréphtalate de polyéthylène / aluminium /
polyéthylène. L'épaisseur des couches de polyéthylène est de 50 }gym et celle des couches d'aluminium et de téréphtalate de polyéthylène est de 12 }gym. Les poches suivant l'invention comportent une bande de polyéthylène de 100 }gym d'épaisseur.
Les poches, de forme cylindrique et d'une capacité de 100 ml, sont remplies d'eau. Elles sont mises en place dans un flacon rigide en polyéthylène, l'assemblage de la poche au flacon se faisant par la bague annulaire supérieure de la poche, comme représenté sur la Figure 4, et une pompe standard est montée par encliquetage sur le col de la poche. Le poids de chaque flacon-poche ainsi monté est d'environ 150 g.
La chute est guidée au moyen d'un tube vertical de diamètre légèrement supérieur à celui des flacons pour mainte-5 nir leur orientation et assurer la régularité des conditions de choc sur une surface dure. L'orientation des flacons-poches est telle que le fond du flacon heurte le sol en premier.
Les tests sont faits sur 3 séries de 20 flacons-poches.
Tous les flacons-poches ont la même dimension (hauteur du 9 depending on the materials used: the reduced dead volume is fast saturated which then limits the product losses.
In addition, vertical shock tests by free fall ("drop test"), performed on the basis of ASTM D 6344-4, showed a significant improvement in resistance to shocks while the presence of the lap band introduces a dissymmetry that may be detrimental to tance. In addition, the zone of weakness is located on the weld from both sides to each other and this fragility is all larger than the weld is longer. We know indeed that the thickness has little influence on the resistance, unlike the length of the weld.
The tests also showed that the impact resistance is greatly improved when the assembly of the edges of the sheet forming the pocket is made so that the inner surface of an edge is in contact with the surface external of the other edge by comparison with a pocket carried out following classical methods where the edges are folded towards the outside of the cylinder, the internal surfaces edges being in contact with each other.
The test consists of dropping pocket bottles oriented vertically over a height varying from 0.6 m to 4 m.
Each pocket consists of a multilayer sheet fixed by gluing on two flanges as indicated above.
The layers, from the outer layer to the inner layer, are polyethylene / polyethylene terephthalate / aluminum /
polyethylene. The thickness of the polyethylene layers is 50} gym and that of the aluminum and terephthalate layers of polyethylene is 12} gym. Pockets according to the invention have a polythene band 100} thick gym.
The pockets, cylindrical in shape and with a capacity of 100 ml, are filled with water. They are set up in a rigid polyethylene bottle, the assembly of the pocket bottle being made through the upper annular ring of the pocket, as shown in Figure 4, and a standard pump is snapped onto the neck of the pocket. The weight of each pocket bottle thus mounted is about 150 g.
The fall is guided by means of a vertical tube of diameter slightly greater than that of the bottles for 5 orient their orientation and ensure the regularity of shock on a hard surface. The orientation of the pocket vials is such that the bottom of the bottle hits the ground first.
The tests are made on 3 sets of 20 vials.
All the vials have the same size (height of
10 flacon : 137 mm, diamètre : 42 mm). La lère série comprend des poches standard à bords repliés vers l'extérieurs soudés face interne contre face interne. La 2ème série comprend des poches à bords soudés l'un sur l'autre, face interne contre face externe. La Sème série comprend les poches suivant la présente invention.
Le premier test est effectué en laissant tomber le flacon d'une hauteur de 0,60 m. Les flacons résistant au premier test sont ensuite soumis à un deuxième test à 1,2 m. Ceux qui résistent sont alors soumis à un troisième test à 2,0 m, puis à 3,3 m et enfin à 4,0 m s'ils ont résisté aux tests précédents.
Chaque flacon est testé trois fois à chaque hauteur.
Les résultats des mesures sont indiqués ci-après.
Hauteur (m) 0, 6 1,2 2, 0 3,3 4, 0 Série 1 0 17 20 - -Série 2 0 0 0 0 6 Série 3 0 0 0 0 0 Le tableau indique le nombre d'échecs. Ainsi, tous les flacons-poches ont résisté au ler test (aucun échec) . Dans la lère série (poche standard) aucun des 20 flacons-poches n'a résisté à la chute de 2,0 m. Les flacons-poches de la 2ème série ont résisté à 3,3 m mais 6/20 n'ont pas résisté à 4,0 m.
Par contre, tous les flacons-poches de la Sème série (invention) ont résisté à 4,0 m. 10 vial: 137 mm, diameter: 42 mm). The first series includes Standard pockets with folded edges outward welded internal against internal face. 2nd series includes pockets with welded edges one on the other, internal face to face external. The 5th series includes the pockets following this invention.
The first test is done by dropping the bottle from a height of 0.60 m. Flasks resistant to the first test are then subjected to a second test at 1.2 m. Those who resist are then subjected to a third test at 2.0 m, then at 3.3 m and finally at 4.0 m if they resisted the tests precedents.
Each vial is tested three times at each height.
The results of the measurements are shown below.
Height (m) 0, 6 1,2 2, 0 3,3 4, 0 Series 1 0 17 20 - -Series 2 0 0 0 0 6 Series 3 0 0 0 0 0 The table shows the number of failures. So, all Bottle-vials withstood the first test (no failure). In the 1st series (standard pocket) none of the 20 vials withstood the 2.0 m drop. The flask-pockets of the 2nd series withstood 3.3 m but 6/20 did not resist 4.0 m.
By cons, all the bottle-flasks of the 5th series (invention) withstood 4.0 m.
11 On constate donc une amélioration de la résistance aux chocs malgré la présence d'une soudure supplémentaire.
Un essai de mesure de résistance à l'éclatement a montré
que les poches suivant l'invention présentent une meilleure résistance que les poches fabriquées suivant les techniques classiques. Ainsi la résistance à l'éclatement d'une poche à
feuille multicouche identique à celle utilisée dans le test ci-dessus est de 3,1 bars (3, 1 105 Pa) tandis que celle d'une poche standard à bord repliés vers l'extérieur et soudés face interne contre face interne n'est que de 1,9 bars (1,9 105 Pa) dans les mêmes conditions.
Ces résultats sont obtenus sans perte du taux de resti-tution, c'est-à-dire que la bande de recouvrement n'a pas d'effet négatif sur le taux de restitution.
Un exemple de réalisation de flacon-poche conforme à la présente invention est décrit ci-après en référence aux dessins annexés qui représentent :
Figure 1 : une vue en perspective d'une feuille enroulée pour former une poche tubulaire suivant une technique connue.
Figure 2 : une vue en perspective d'une feuille suivant la technique de la présente invention, avec une bande de recouvrement sur la face intérieure du tube.
Figure 3 : une vue en perspective d'une variante de l'invention où la bande de recouvrement est sur les deux faces du bord intérieur de la feuille.
Figure 4 : une vue éclatée d'un flacon-poche dont le flacon contient la poche complète comportant le tube de la Figure 2 avec les deux flasques.
La Figure 1 montre une feuille (1) constituée d'une feuille d'aluminium (2) recouverte sur chacune de ses deux faces par une couche de polyéthylène. Ainsi la feuille comprend un film de polyéthylène externe (3) et un film de polyéthylène interne (4).
Une fois la feuille (1) enroulée, ses deux extrémités se superposent au niveau de la zone (5), la face interne proche du bord venant se placer sur la face externe proche de l'autre 11 There is therefore an improvement in the resistance to shocks despite the presence of an additional weld.
A burst strength measurement test showed that the pockets according to the invention have a better resistance that the pockets made according to the techniques classics. Thus the resistance to the bursting of a pocket multilayer sheet identical to that used in the test above is 3.1 bars (3.110 Pa) while that of standard pocket with folded edge outward and welded internal against internal surface is only 1.9 bars (1.9 105 Pa) under the same conditions.
These results are obtained without loss of tion, that is to say that the covering strip does not have negative effect on the refund rate.
An exemplary embodiment of a pocket-bottle conforming to the The present invention is described below with reference to attached drawings that represent:
Figure 1: a perspective view of a rolled sheet to form a tubular pocket according to a known technique.
Figure 2: a perspective view of a following sheet the technique of the present invention, with a strip of covering on the inside of the tube.
Figure 3: a perspective view of a variant of the invention where the cover strip is on both sides from the inside edge of the leaf.
Figure 4: an exploded view of a pocket bottle whose bottle contains the complete pouch with the tube of the Figure 2 with the two flanges.
Figure 1 shows a sheet (1) consisting of a aluminum foil (2) covered on each of its two faces by a layer of polyethylene. So the sheet comprises an outer polyethylene film (3) and a film of internal polyethylene (4).
Once the sheet (1) is rolled up, both ends overlap at the level of the zone (5), the inner side close edge coming to be placed on the external face close to the other
12 bord. La largeur de la zone de superposition des deux bords de la feuille est d'environ 5 mm. Les deux bords sont rattachés l'un à l'autre par La largeur de la feuille est variable et correspond à la hauteur de la poche, une fois le tube formé et mis en place sur les flasques.
La Figure 2 montre clairement la bande de polyéthylène (6) placée sur la face interne de la feuille (1). Cette bande (6), d'une largeur d'environ 6 mm, recouvre le chevauchement des deux bords sur toute la largeur de la feuille (1) et masque le chant apparent du bord interne. L'identité de la matière constituant la bande de recouvrement (6) et la couche interne d'une part, et la couche externe de la feuille d'autre part, facilite la fixation par soudage des deux bords l'un sur l'autre, et de la bande de recouvrement d'épaisseur le plus souvent comprise entre 50 et 150 microns, sur la jonction des bords. On effectue de préférence un soudage thermique.
De plus, la même matière, dans cet exemple le poly-éthylène, est utilisée sur toute la surface interne de la feuille qui se trouve ensuite en contact avec le produit dans la poche. Il n'y a donc pas de rupture de la qualité de la matière formant la face interne de la poche. La couche de recouvrement en polyéthylène permet de masquer le chant du bord interne de la feuille et d'éviter tout contact de l'aluminium avec le produit introduit dans la poche, et sa faible épaisseur, de l'ordre de 50 à 150 }gym, et de préférence 100 }gym environ, n'entraîne qu'une surépaisseur négligeable.
La Figure 3 montre une variante de réalisation de l'invention où la bande de recouvrement (6) enveloppe le chant du bord interne de la feuille (1).
Cette variante facilite les opérations de soudage en fonction de l'outillage utilisé puisque la bande de recouvrement (6) est d'abord fixée et soudée à l'un des bords de la feuille multicouche (1), puis la feuille est enroulée en cylindre et le soudage des deux bords et de la bande de recouvrement est alors réalisé. 12 edge. The width of the overlapping area of both edges of the sheet is about 5 mm. Both edges are attached to each other by The width of the sheet is variable and corresponds to the pocket height, once the tube formed and set up on the flanges.
Figure 2 clearly shows the polyethylene tape (6) placed on the inner face of the sheet (1). This band (6), about 6 mm wide, overlaps the overlap both edges over the entire width of the sheet (1) and mask the apparent singing of the inner edge. The identity of the material constituting the covering strip (6) and the layer internal on the one hand, and the outer layer of the other on the other hand, facilitates the attachment by welding of the two edges, one on the other, and the thickest lap band often between 50 and 150 microns, on the junction of edges. Thermal welding is preferably carried out.
Moreover, the same material, in this example the poly-ethylene, is used on the entire internal surface of the sheet which is then in contact with the product in the pocket. So there is no break in the quality of the material forming the inner face of the pocket. The layer of polyethylene cover allows to hide the song of the inner edge of the sheet and to avoid any contact of aluminum with the product introduced into the pocket, and its thin, of the order of 50 to 150} gym, and preferably About 1 gym, only negligible extra thickness.
Figure 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention where the covering strip (6) surrounds the song the inner edge of the sheet (1).
This variant facilitates welding operations in function of the tooling used since the cover (6) is first fixed and welded to one of the edges of the multilayer sheet (1), then the sheet is wound into cylinder and the welding of both edges and the band of recovery is then achieved.
13 Les Figures 2 et 3 représentent les positions respectives de la feuille (1) et de la bande (6) avant l'opération de soudage.
La Figure 4 montre l'assemblage de la feuille (1), enroulée suivant un cylindre fermé par la bande de recouvrement (6), avec les flasques (7, 8) et l'insertion de l'ensemble dans le flacon rigide (9). Le flasque annulaire (7) constitue une bague de fixation au flacon (9) tandis que le flasque plein en coupelle (8) constitue le fond de la poche.
Une pompe (non représentée) portant un poussoir pour son actionnement, est montée de manière étanche sur le col de la poche, suivant la technique du brevet FR 2.827.844.
Un circuit d'air (non représenté) est prévu, suivant une technique usuelle, dans la pompe ou dans le flasque annulaire formant bague de fixation pour permettre le passage de l'air de l'extérieur vers l'espace entre la poche et le flacon. Des moyens sont prévus pour que le circuit d'air soit ouvert uniquement lorsque le flacon-poche est utilisé, par exemple par un système connu d'obturation ne s'ouvrant qu'en cas de pression sur le poussoir d'actionnement de la pompe de manière à ne laisser entrer qu'un volume d'air équivalent au volume de fluide expulsé de la poche. Par exemple, les moyens d'obtura-tion du circuit d'air peuvent être constitués par des clapets, qui restent fermés tant que la pompe n'est pas actionnée.
Suivant une variante (non représentée) ce circuit d'air peut être remplacé par un simple évent dans le fond du flacon. Si nécessaire, cet évent peut être muni d'un clapet et d'un filtre.
Comme le montre la Figure 4, il est aisé de jouer sur la largeur et la hauteur de la feuille pour adapter la poche au volume du flacon et limiter le volume mort entre les deux. 13 Figures 2 and 3 show the respective positions of the sheet (1) and the strip (6) before the operation of welding.
Figure 4 shows the assembly of the sheet (1), wound in a cylinder closed by the strip of overlap (6), with the flanges (7, 8) and the insertion of the whole in the rigid bottle (9). The annular flange (7) constitutes a ring for fixing to the bottle (9) while the flask full cup (8) is the bottom of the pocket.
A pump (not shown) carrying a pusher for its actuation, is mounted in a sealed manner on the neck of the pocket, according to the technique of FR 2,827,844.
An air circuit (not shown) is provided, following a usual technique, in the pump or in the annular flange forming a fixing ring to allow the passage of air from the outside to the space between the pocket and the bottle. of the means are provided for the air circuit to be open only when the flask is used, for example by a known shutter system opening only in case of pressing the actuating pusher of the pump so to let in only one volume of air equivalent to the volume of fluid expelled from the pocket. For example, the means of closure the air circuit may consist of flaps, which remain closed until the pump is actuated.
According to a variant (not shown) this air circuit can be replaced by a simple vent in the bottom of the bottle. Yes necessary, this vent may be equipped with a flap and a filtered.
As shown in Figure 4, it is easy to play on the width and height of the sheet to fit the pocket at volume of the vial and limit the dead volume between the two.
