Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un porte-étiquette inviolable, en particulier à un porte-adresse inviolable pour des sacs, par exemple des sacs postaux et autres objets analogues, servant à la fois de dispositif de plombage ou scellé et de dispositif porteur d'informations.The present invention relates to a tamper-evident label holder, in particular to a tamper-proof address holder for bags, for example postal bags and other similar objects, serving both as a sealing or sealing device and as a carrier device. information.

On connaît déjà, par exemple d'après les brevets français 74 35 464 et 76 09 400 des porte-étiquettes pour sacs postaux du type précité, mais il a été constaté que de tels porte-étiquettes sont relativement longs à mettre en place sur les sacs postaux, et que l'on pouvait, dans certains cas, retirer les étiquettes sans avoir à violer le plombage, et que même on pouvait retirer le plombage sans le détruire.Already known, for example from French patents 74 35 464 and 76 09 400, label holders for postal bags of the aforementioned type, but it has been found that such label holders are relatively long to install on the bags, and that you could, in some cases, remove the labels without having to violate the seal, and that even you could remove the seal without destroying it.

Le porte-étiquette conforme à la présente invention comporte une première partie ou bottier comprenant un dispositif de fixation des deux extrémités d'une ficelle de longueur appropriée, et un dispositif de crochet rotatif pouvant être bloqué en rotation par la deuxième partie dudit porte-étiquette, cette deuxième partie formant couvercle pour la première partie et se déplaçant dans des rainures pratiquées dans des parois latérales opposées de ladite première partie de façon à former avec ladite première partie un espace pratiquement fermé dans lequel on peut disposer une étiquette porte-adresse et/ou une étiquette porte-message, ladite deuxième partie comportant des moyens recevant un dispositif de scellé l'immobilisant en position fermée du porte-étiquette.The label holder according to the present invention comprises a first part or case comprising a device for fixing the two ends of a string of suitable length, and a rotary hook device which can be locked in rotation by the second part of said label holder , this second part forming a cover for the first part and moving in grooves made in opposite side walls of said first part so as to form with said first part a practically closed space in which one can have an address label and / or a message label, said second part comprising means receiving a seal device immobilizing it in the closed position of the label holder.

La présente invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description détaillée d'un mode de réalisation pris comme exemple non limitatif et illustré par le dessin annexé sur lequel:

  • la fig. 1 est une vue en plan d'un porte-étiquette conforme à la présente invention, en position de début de fermeture;
  • la fig. 2 est une vue en plan du porte-étiquette de la figure 1 avec arrachement, en position fermée et scellée; et,
  • la fig. 3 est une vue en coupe selon III-III de la figure 2, le scellé n'étant pas représenté.
The present invention will be better understood using the detailed description of an embodiment taken as a non-limiting example and illustrated by the appended drawing in which:
  • fig. 1 is a plan view of a label holder according to the present invention, in the closed start position;
  • fig. 2 is a plan view of the label holder of FIG. 1 with cutaway, in the closed and sealed position; and,
  • fig. 3 is a sectional view along III-III of Figure 2, the seal not being shown.

Le porte-étiquette représenté sur le dessin peut par exemple être utilisé pour fermer des sacs postaux et indiquer le secteur postal jusqu'auquel il doivent être acheminés. Toutefois, de nombreuses autres utilisations peuvent être prévues.The label holder shown in the drawing can for example be used to close postal bags and indicate the postal sector to which they must be routed. However, many other uses can be expected.

Le porte-étiquette conforme à la présente invention comporte essentiellement deux parties 1 et 2 formant, lorsqu'elles sont assemblées, un boîtier ayant sensiblement la forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle plat.The label holder according to the present invention essentially comprises two parts 1 and 2 forming, when assembled, a housing having substantially the shape of a flat rectangular parallelepiped.

La partie 1 ou bottier se compose d'une paroi de fond 3 ayant une forme sensiblement rectangulaire, de deux parois latérales longitudinales 4 et 5, les extrémités 4a, 5a desdites parois 4, 5 ayant une hauteur légèrement supérieure à celle du reste de ces parois 4, 5 d'une paroi supérieure 6 de faible largeur reliant entre elles les extrémités supérieures des parties 4a, 5a des parois latérales 4 et 5, et d'une paroi latérale frontale 7 se trouvant du c8té de la paroi 6 et comportant une ouverture 7a décentrée vers la paroi latérale 50 Toutes les parties référencées 3 à 7 du bottier 1 peuvent être réalisées en matière plastique rigide ou matière analogue, de préférence transparente, par exemple en plexiglass, pour permettre de voir l'étiquette EM portant un message et disposée contre la paroi de fond 3, à l'intérieur du porte-étiquette. Toutefois, on peut réaliser ce porte-étiquette en une autre matière, même non transparente, en ménageant le cas échéant une fenêtre dans la paroi de fond 3 pour permettre de voir ladite étiquette EM.Part 1 or bootmaker consists of a bottom wall 3 having a substantially rectangular shape, two longitudinal side walls 4 and 5, the ends 4a, 5a of said walls 4, 5 having a height slightly greater than that of the rest of these walls 4, 5 of an upper wall 6 of small width connecting together the upper ends of the parts 4a, 5a of the side walls 4 and 5, and of a front side wall 7 located on the side of the wall 6 and comprising a opening 7a off-center towards the side wall 5 0 All the parts referenced 3 to 7 of the boot 1 can be made of rigid plastic or similar material, preferably transparent, for example plexiglass, to allow the EM label carrying a message to be seen and disposed against the bottom wall 3, inside the label holder. However, this label holder can be made of another material, even a non-transparent material, if necessary providing a window in the bottom wall 3 to allow said EM label to be seen.

On pratique dans les faces intérieures des parois latérales 4 et 5 des rainures longitudinales 8, 9 destinées à coopérer avec des languettes ou saillies correspondantes du couvercle 2 comme expliqué ci-dessousoLongitudinal grooves 8, 9 are made in the inner faces of the side walls 4 and 5 intended to cooperate with corresponding tongues or projections of the cover 2 as explained below.

La partie 1 du porte-étiquette comporte également un dispositif amovible 10 de réglage de la longueur de la ficelle 11 et un crochet rotatif 120Part 1 of the label holder also includes a removable device 10 for adjusting the length of the string 11 and a rotary hook 120

Le dispositif 10 de réglage de la longueur de ficelle se compose essentiellement d'un bloc 13 de forme sensiblement parallélépipédique guidé entre la paroi latérale 4 et une saillie longitudinale 14 formée sur la paroi de fond 3, parallèlement à la paroi 4, ainsi que par une partie de la paroi supérieure 6 sous laquelle il s'engage. Ce bloc 13 arrive en butée contre la paroi 7 et est appliqué fermement contre elle lorsque, la longueur de la ficelle étant bien réglée, le sac S sur le col duquel on dispose le porte-étiquette de l'invention est correctement fermé, comme expliqué ci-dessous. Comme également expliqué ci-dessous, le bloc 13 du dispositif 10 a une longueur (prisé dans le sens longitudinal du bottier 1) telle qu'il soit immobilisé en translation par le couvercle 2 lorsque ce - dernier est en position fermée et que le bloc 13 est en butée contre la paroi 7. Toutefois, le bloc 13 peut avoir une longueur inférieure à ladite longueur.The device 10 for adjusting the length of the string essentially consists of a block 13 of substantially parallelepipedal shape guided between the side wall 4 and a longitudinal projection 14 formed on the bottom wall 3, parallel to the wall 4, as well as by part of the upper wall 6 under which it engages. This block 13 comes into abutment against the wall 7 and is applied firmly against it when, the length of the string being properly adjusted, the bag S on the neck of which the label holder of the invention is placed is correctly closed, as explained below. As also explained below, the block 13 of the device 10 has a length (prized in the longitudinal direction of the boot 1) such that it is immobilized in translation by the cover 2 when the latter is in the closed position and the block 13 is in abutment against the wall 7. However, the block 13 may have a length less than said length.

Le bloc 13 du dispositif de réglage 10 comporte, dans 1' une de ses faces principales, un évidement 15 en forme de méandre dont les différentes branches ont des parois sensiblement parallèles, la largeur de ces branches correspondant sensiblement au diamètre de la ficelle 11, des évidements 16 de forme cylindrique ayant un diamètre légèrement supérieur à la largeur desdites branches du méandre 15 étant pratiqués de distance en distance dans le méandre 15, ces évidements 16 étant destinés à coopérer avec un dispositif d'arrêt approprié 17 fixé simultanément aux deux extrémités de la ficelle 11 et ayant des dimensions lui permettant de se loger dans les évidements 16 sans pouvoir passer dans le méandre 15. On peut ainsi facilement régler la longueur de la ficelle 11 en disposant le dispositif d'arrêt 17 dans l'évidement 16 approprié et en logeant la ficelle dans le méandre 15 jusqu'à l'embouchure 15a de celui-ci, la ficelle passant ensuite dans un trou 18 pratiqué en un endroit approprié de la paroi 7, face à l'embouchure 15a du méandre 150The block 13 of the adjustment device 10 comprises, in one of its main faces, a recess 15 in the form of a meander, the different branches of which have substantially parallel walls, the width of these branches corresponding substantially to the diameter of the string 11, recesses 16 of cylindrical shape having a diameter slightly greater than the width of said branches of the meander 15 being made from distance to distance in the meander 15, these recesses 16 being intended to cooperate with an appropriate stop device 17 fixed simultaneously to the two ends of the string 11 and having dimensions allowing it to be housed in the recesses 16 without being able to pass through the meander 15. It is thus easy to adjust the length of the string 11 by placing the stop device 17 in the appropriate recess 16 and by housing the string in the meander 15 to the mouth 15a thereof, the string then passing through a hole 18 made in an appropriate place of the wall 7, facing the mouth 15a of the meander 150

Le dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 comporte essentiellement deux parties 19, 20 reliées entre elles par une partie intermédiaire 21 ayant sensiblement une forme de section droite de.cylindre dont la hauteur est pratiquement égale de l'épaisseur de la paroi 6 au niveau de laquelle elle se trouve. De préférence, le crochet rotatif 12 est réalisé en une seule pièce, par exemple par moulage de matière plastique. La partie 19 se compose d'une poulie 22 dont la gorge a des dimensions suffisantes pour guider les deux bras de la ficelle 11 lorsque cette dernière est repliée en forme d'épingle à cheveux, et d'un appendice radial 23 en forme de crochet faisant saillie pratiquement à mi-hauteur de la poulie 22, l'ouverture de ce crochet étant dirigée vers la droite lorsque ce crochet est dans la position représentée sur la figure 1, ce crochet 23 étant destiné à recevoir la boucle d'extrémité de la ficelle 11 lorsque cette dernière est repliée en forme d'épingle à cheveux. La hauteur de la poulie 22 est légerement inférieure à la hauteur de l'espace se trouvant entre les parois 3 et 6 du bottier 1, de façon à permettre le mouvement de rotation de la poulie 22 sous la paroi 60 The rotary hook device 12 essentially comprises two parts 19, 20 interconnected by one by intermediate tie 21 having a substantially cross-sectional shape de.cylindre whose height is almost equal to the thickness of the wall 6 at which it is located. Preferably, the rotary hook 12 is produced in a single piece, for example by molding plastic material. Part 19 consists of a pulley 22, the groove of which is sufficient to guide the two arms of the string 11 when the latter is folded in the form of a hairpin, and a radial appendage 23 in the form of a hook. projecting practically halfway up the pulley 22, the opening of this hook being directed to the right when this hook is in the position shown in FIG. 1, this hook 23 being intended to receive the end loop of the string 11 when the latter is folded in the shape of a hairpin. The height of the pulley 22 is slightly less than the height of the space between the walls 3 and 6 of the boot 1, so as to allow the rotational movement of the pulley 22 under the wall 6 0

La partie supérieure 20 du crochet rotatif 12 a sensiblement la forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle dont l'une des extrémités comporte un lamage tranversal 24 à section en forme de U à fond plat, le centre dudit parallélépipède se trouvant sur ou à proximité de l'axe de la poulie 22, l'emplacement dudit lamage 24 étant déterminé comme expliqué ci-dessous. Le dispositif 12 est mobile en rotation autour d'un axe 12a fixé sur la paroi 3, en un endroit déterminé de façon que le crochet 23 puisse passer par l'ouverture 7a de la paroi 7 au cours de la rotation du dispositif 12, que ce crochet dépasse suffisamment du boîtier 1 pour que l'on puisse y accrocher facilement la ficelle 11, et que le crochet 23 vienne en butée contre la face intérieure de la paroi 7 en fin de rotation de fermeture du dispositif 12.The upper part 20 of the rotary hook 12 has substantially the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, one end of which has a transverse counterbore 24 with a U-shaped section with a flat bottom, the center of said parallelepiped being on or near the axis of the pulley 22, the location of said counterbore 24 being determined as explained below. The device 12 is movable in rotation about an axis 12a fixed on the wall 3, at a location determined so that the hook 23 can pass through the opening 7a of the wall 7 during the rotation of the device 12, that this hook protrudes sufficiently from the housing 1 so that the string 11 can be easily hung there, and the hook 23 comes into abutment con be the inner face of the wall 7 at the end of the device 12 closing rotation.

L'axe longitudinal du parallélépipède 20 et l'axe du crochet 23 forment entre eux un angle d'environ 110°, mais cet angle peut varier légèrement, par exemple en fonction de la position du crochet rotatif 12 par rapport à la paroi 3, cet angle étant tel qu'en fin de rotation de fermeture du dispositif 12, lorsque le crochet 23 est en butée contre la paroi 7, l'axe longitudinal du parallélépipède 20 soit parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du bottier 1.The longitudinal axis of the parallelepiped 20 and the axis of the hook 23 form an angle between them of approximately 110 °, but this angle may vary slightly, for example as a function of the position of the rotary hook 12 relative to the wall 3, this angle being such that at the end of the closing rotation of the device 12, when the hook 23 abuts against the wall 7, the longitudinal axis of the parallelepiped 20 is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the case 1.

Le couvercle 2 comporte une paroi principale plane rectangulaire 25, deux parois latérales 26, 27 s'étendant le long des grands côtés de la paroi 25 et sous celle-ci, une paroi frontale 28 s'étendant le long d'un petit côté de la paroi rectangulaire 25 sous celle-ci, et une paroi supérieure 29 de forme sensiblement rectangulaire s'étendant le long de l'autre petit coté de la paroi 25, parallèlement à cette paroi 25 et au-dessus d'elle, ces deux parois 25 et 29 se raccordant pratiquement à la façon de deux marches d'escalier successiveso On notera que la face frontale libre de la paroi 25 immobilise en translation le bloc 13 du dispositif de réglage 10, lorsque le porte-étiquette de l'invention est fermé.The cover 2 has a flat rectangular main wall 25, two side walls 26, 27 extending along the long sides of the wall 25 and under it, a front wall 28 extending along a short side of the rectangular wall 25 under it, and an upper wall 29 of substantially rectangular shape extending along the other short side of the wall 25, parallel to this wall 25 and above it, these two walls 25 and 29 being connected practically in the manner of two successive stair stepso It will be noted that the free front face of the wall 25 immobilizes in translation the block 13 of the adjustment device 10, when the label holder of the invention is closed .

Les parois latérales 26 et 27 du couvercle 2 comportent à leur partie inférieure des languettes longitudinales extérieures 30, 31 s'engageant dans les rainures 8 et 9 respectivement, et des languettes longitudinales intérieures 30a, 31a formant avec la face inférieure de la paroi 25 des rainures 30b, 31b respectivement. Ces rainures 30b, 31b étant destinées à recevoir une étiquette porte-adresse EA sur laquelle on marque l'adresse ou le secteur postal vers lequel le sac postal S doit être expédié.The lateral walls 26 and 27 of the cover 2 have, at their lower part, external longitudinal tongues 30, 31 engaging in the grooves 8 and 9 respectively, and internal longitudinal tongues 30a, 31a forming, with the lower face of the wall 25 grooves 30b, 31b respectively. These grooves 30b, 31b being intended to receive an address label EA on which is marked the address or the postal sector to which postal bag S must be shipped.

Les parois latérales 26 et 27 ont une hauteur telle que la surface supérieure de la paroi principale 25 soit au niveau de la tranche ou face supérieure des parois latérales 4 et 5 du bottier 1, tandis que la hauteur de la paroi 28 est telle que sa tranche ou face inférieure arrive au niveau de la face principale inférieure du bottier 1, de façon à obtenir entre la paroi 25 du couvercle 2 et le bottier 1 un espace intérieur parallélépipèdique entièrement fermé sur cinq côtés, seul le sixième c8té de cet espace, c8té tourné vers le dispositif de réglage 10 et le crochet rotatif 12, étant ouverteThe side walls 26 and 27 have a height such that the upper surface of the main wall 25 is at the level of the edge or upper face of the side walls 4 and 5 of the shoemaker 1, while the height of the wall 28 is such that its slice or lower face arrives at the level of the lower main face of the case 1, so as to obtain, between the wall 25 of the cover 2 and the case 1, a parallelepiped interior space entirely closed on five sides, only the sixth side of this space, side facing the adjuster 10 and the rotary hook 12, being open

La paroi 29 du couvercle 2 a une forme générale plane et comporte, sur la face supérieure de sa partie se trouvant entre le crochet rotatif 12 et la paroi latérale 5, 5a du bottier 1 lorsque le couvercle 2 est en place sur la bottier 1, une saillie 32 se présentant sous forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle comportant, sur sa face tournée vers le dispositif de crochet rotatif 12, deux évidements 32a, 32b de forme parallélépipèdique et parallèles entre eux. Les axes longitudinaux de ces deux évidements 32a, 32b sont perpendiculaires à l'axe longitudinal du couvercle 2, et ces deux évidements sont séparés par une cloison 33. Les ouvertures des évidements 32a, 32b s'étendent depuis la cloison de séparation 33 mais sont moins larges que ces évidements (dans le sens de l'axe longitudinal principal du couvercle 2), de façon à laisser subsister sur les bords extrêmes opposés de ces ouvertures des petites parties de parois 34, 35 derrière lesquelles viennent s'accorcher les pattes d'accrochage 36, 37 du scellé 38, les ouvertures des évidements 32a, 32b se trouvant juste vis-à-vis du lamage 24 du dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 de façon à permettre l'engagement du scellé 38 dans ces ouvertures lorsque le crochet 12 est en position de fermeture, ainsi que représenté sur la figure 2. La paroi 29 comporte également sur sa face frontale opposée à la face fixée sur la paroi 25 un évidement 29a sensiblement semi-circulaire destiné au passage de la partie intermédiaire 21 du dispositif 12. La paroi 29 comporte aussi à la partie inférieure de ses faces latérales 40, 41 (parallèles aux parois latérales 26, 27) des languettes 42, 43 respectivement, coopérant avec des rainures 44, 45 formées dans les parties de parois 4a, 5a respectivement. La largeur (prise dans le sens de l'axe longitudinal du couvercle 2) de la paroi 29 est telle que la face frontale libre de cette paroi 29 vienne buter contre la face frontale de la paroi 6 lui faisant vis-à-vis lorsque le porte-étiquette est ferméoThe wall 29 of the cover 2 has a generally planar shape and comprises, on the upper face of its part lying between the rotary hook 12 and the side wall 5, 5a of the shoemaker 1 when the cover 2 is in place on the shovel 1, a projection 32 in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped comprising, on its face facing the rotary hook device 12, two recesses 32a, 32b of parallelepiped shape and parallel to each other. The longitudinal axes of these two recesses 32a, 32b are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cover 2, and these two recesses are separated by a partition 33. The openings of the recesses 32a, 32b extend from the separation partition 33 but are narrower than these recesses (in the direction of the main longitudinal axis of the cover 2), so as to leave on the opposite extreme edges of these openings small portions of walls 34, 35 behind which hang the tabs d hooking 36, 37 of the seal 38, the openings of the recesses 32a, 32b being located just opposite the counterbore 24 of the hook device ro tative 12 so as to allow the engagement of the seal 38 in these openings when the hook 12 is in the closed position, as shown in FIG. 2. The wall 29 also has on its front face opposite to the face fixed on the wall 25 a substantially semicircular recess 29a intended for the passage of the intermediate part 21 of the device 12. The wall 29 also has, at the lower part of its lateral faces 40, 41 (parallel to the lateral walls 26, 27) tongues 42, 43 respectively, cooperating with grooves 44, 45 formed in the wall parts 4a, 5a respectively. The width (taken in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the cover 2) of the wall 29 is such that the free front face of this wall 29 abuts against the front face of the wall 6 making it vis-à-vis when the label holder is closed

Le scellé 38, réalisé par exemple en matière plastique moulée, comporte un corps 39 en forme de plaquette rectangulaire dont la largeur maximale correspond sensiblement à celle du lamage 24, les deux pattes d'accrochage 36, 37 faisant saillie longitudinalement sur une face frontale de ce corps 39. Chacune de ces deux pattes 36, 37 a une forme générale en V, ces deux pattes étant disposées cote à côte, les branches les plus voisines de ces deux V mis côte à c8-te étant parallèles entre elles et légèrement plus longues que les branches libres de ces deux V, les extrémités de ce ces branches les plus longues étant raccordées à ladite face frontale de laquelle elles font saillie. La distance séparant les deux branches parallèles entre elles desdits V est sensiblement égale à l'épaisseur de la paroi 32. La longueur desdites pattes d'accrochage 36 et 37 est telle que les extrémités libres de leurs branches libres viennent s'appuyer contre les faces intérieures des parties de paroi 34, 35, et il est évident que la longueur de ces pattes est égale ou inférieure à la profondeur des évidements 32a, 32b. Ainsi, comme on le voit d'après la figure 2, lorsque le scellé 38 est en place, les branches libres des pattes d'accrochage 36, 37 sont retenues par les parties de parois 34, 35, et il est pratiquement impossible d'enlever le scellé sans le briser car les ouvertures des évidements 32a, 32b sont alors complètement fermées par les branches parallèles desdites pattes d'accrochage et la cloison 32 empêche de rapprocher mutuellement ces deux pattes d'accrochage pour dégager les extrémités des branches libres de ces pattes d'accrochage des parties de parois 34, 35 contre lesquelles elles butent. Toutefois, il est bien entendu que tout autre dispositif de scellé inviolable pourrait convenir, les formes de la partie supérieure 20 du dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 et de l'appendice 30 étant alors modifiées en conséquence.The seal 38, made for example from molded plastic, has a body 39 in the form of a rectangular plate, the maximum width of which corresponds substantially to that of the counterbore 24, the two attachment tabs 36, 37 protruding longitudinally on a front face of this body 39. Each of these two legs 36, 37 has a general V shape, these two legs being arranged side by side, the branches closest to these two Vs placed side by side c8-te being parallel to each other and slightly more as long as the free arms of these two Vs, the ends of these longest arms being connected to said front face from which they project. The distance separating the two parallel branches from each other of said V is substantially equal to the thickness of the wall 32. The length of said attachment tabs 36 and 37 is such that the free ends of their free branches come to bear against the faces interior parts of wall 34, 35, and it is obvious that the length of these legs is equal to or less than the depth of the recesses 32a, 32b. Thus, as can be seen from FIG. 2, when the seal 38 is in place, the free branches of the hooking lugs 36, 37 are retained by the wall parts 34, 35, and it is practically impossible to remove the seal without breaking it because the openings in the recesses 32a, 32b are then completely closed by the parallel branches of the said hooking tabs and the partition 32 prevents these two hooking tabs from bringing each other together to free the ends of the free branches from these hooking lugs of the wall parts 34, 35 against which they abut. However, it is understood that any other tamper-evident sealing device could be suitable, the shapes of the upper part 20 of the rotary hook device 12 and of the appendage 30 then being modified accordingly.

Le porte-étiquette décrit ci-dessus est très facile à employer. Tout d'abord, on s'assure que la longueur de la partie libre de la ficelle 11 est correcte, et, si nécessaire, on l'ajuste en modifiant la position du dispositif d'arrêt 17 à l'intérieur du dispositif de réglage 10 de façon que cette ficelle enserre correctement le col du sac S correspondant lorsque le porte-étiquette est en position fermée. Etant donné que dans la plupart des cas le porte-étiquette de la présente invention est employé pour un grand nombre de sacs identiques, la longueur de la ficelle pourra être préréglée une fois pour toutes pour une grande série de sacs identiqueso On place ensuite l'étiquette porte-adresse EA dans les rainures 30b, 31b, puis l'étiquette porte-message sur le fond du bottier 1, ces deux étiquettes devant évidemment être visibles de l'extérieur. La ficelle 11 étant repliée sous forme d'épingle à cheveux ou bloucle aplatie, on dispose cette ficelle autour du col du sac S et on l'accroche au crochet 23, le dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 se trouvant, bien entendu, dans la position représentée sur la figure 1, c'est-à-dire que le crochet 23 se trouve à l'extérieur du bottier leThe label holder described above is very easy to use. First of all, it is ensured that the length of the free part of the string 11 is correct, and, if necessary, it is adjusted by modifying the position of the stop device 17 inside the adjustment device. 10 so that this string correctly grips the neck of the corresponding bag S when the label holder is in the closed position. Since in most cases the label holder of the present invention is used for a large number of identical bags, the length of the string can be preset once and for all for a large series of identical bags. address label EA in the grooves 30b, 31b, then the message label on the bottom of the boot 1, these two labels obviously having to be visible from the outside. The string 11 being folded back in the form of a hairpin want or flattened loop, this string is placed around the neck of the bag S and it is hooked to the hook 23, the rotary hook device 12 being, of course, in the position shown in FIG. 1, -to say that the hook 23 is on the outside of the shoemaker the

Ensuite, on fait tourner d'environ 3/4 de tour le dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre (le porte-étiquette étant vu de dessus) et ce, jusqu'à ce que le crochet 23 bute contre la face intérieure de la paroi 7, la ficelle s'enroulant dans la gorge de la poulie 22. Lorsque le crochet 23 bute contre la face intérieure de la paroi 7, la ficelle 11 enserre fermement le col du sac S. On fait ensuite glisser les languettes 30, 31 du couvercle 2 dans les rainures 8, 9 du bottier 1 jusqu'à fermer complètement le bottier. La partie supérieure 20 du dispositif de crochet rotatif 12 se trouve alors immobilisée en rotation contre la saillie 32. On insère enfin les pattes d'accrochage 36, 37 du scellé 38 dans les évidements 32a, 32b de la saillie 32.Then, the rotary hook device 12 is rotated about 3/4 of a turn clockwise (the label holder being viewed from above) and this, until the hook 23 abuts against the inner face of the wall 7, the twine winding in the groove of the pulley 22. When the hook 23 abuts against the inner face of the wall 7, the twine 11 grips the neck of the bag S. slide the tabs 30, 31 of the cover 2 into the grooves 8, 9 of the case 1 until the case is completely closed. The upper part 20 of the rotary hook device 12 is then immobilized in rotation against the projection 32. Finally, the hooking lugs 36, 37 of the seal 38 are inserted into the recesses 32a, 32b of the projection 32.

Pour ouvrir le porte-étiquette, il suffit de soulever le corps 39 du scellé 38 jusqu'à briser les attaches des pattes d'accrochage 36 et 37, ce qui permet de retirer le couvercle 2, donc de dégager la partie supérieure 20 du dispositif de crochet rotatif 12, et donc de relâcher la ficelle 11. On voit donc que le porte-étiquette de la présente invention est très facile à mettre en place et à retirer, seul le scellé étant à remplacer après chaque utilisation. Bien entendu, les attaches des pattes 36,37 comportent avantageusement une zone d'affaiblissement (non représentée) facilitant la rupture du scellé 380To open the label holder, simply lift the body 39 from the seal 38 until the attachments of the hooking lugs 36 and 37 are broken, which makes it possible to remove the cover 2, therefore to release the upper part 20 of the device. of rotary hook 12, and therefore of loosening the string 11. It can therefore be seen that the label holder of the present invention is very easy to set up and remove, only the seal being to be replaced after each use. Of course, the fasteners of the legs 36, 37 advantageously include a weakening zone (not shown) facilitating the breaking of the seal 380

Pour améliorer le caractère inviolable, on peut réaliser le scellé 38 en une matière pratiquement incollable. Ainsi, lorsque le scellé est rompu, ses trois parties 36, 37 et 39 ne peuvent plus être recollés et il n'y a donc aucun moyen possible de réutiliser le scellé brisé.To improve the tamper-evident nature, the seal 38 can be produced from a practically non-stick material. Thus, when the seal is broken, its three parts 36, 37 and 39 can no longer be re-glued and there is therefore no possible way to reuse the broken seal.
