Definitions

  • the invention relates, on the one hand, to a container with a bottom and / or a crimped lid, in particular a packaging box for food, chemical, industrial or other products, in particular for pressurized products or products requiring heat treatment such as that pasteurization or sterilization and formed of a hollow tubular composite body, of a bottom and / or of a cover composed of a shutter flange, of a collar and of an annular rim folded over the periphery of the ends of the body hollow tubular, said container further comprising a hot-melt connection for fixing the bottom and / or the cover, extending over the entire height of the collar, spanning the upper and / or lower edges of the hollow tubular body and covering the ends of the latter of a height corresponding to the height of the folded end of the annular rim of the bottom and / or of the cover, and on the other hand, a method of manufacturing this container.
  • Document FR-A-2 473 994 already discloses an improved composite container and its manufacturing process.
  • the cylindrical body of the container is formed of a composite structure in which a structural material is sandwiched between two polypropylene films.
  • a hermetic seal is placed between the body and the cover by the addition of materials arranged along the crimping zone.
  • Document US-A-4,270,475 also discloses a process for forming containers with smooth edges.
  • a cover is used whose rim is slightly smaller in diameter than that of the cylindrical body of the container.
  • a crimping with double folding of the cover is then carried out, which makes it possible to fold the ends of the cylindrical body of the container slightly inwards so that the container provided with its cover has a smooth wall.
  • the container body is formed of a layer of spiral cardboard covered in its internal part with a plastic film.
  • Document US-A-2 986 319 discloses an aerated container and its manufacturing process. According to this process, the container, intended to allow the internal gases to escape, is composed of a cylindrical body coated in its internal part with a waterproof film. However, when the cover is placed on the body of the container, a layer of porous materials is inserted between the two parts.
  • Document FR-A-2 320 867 discloses a thin-walled container with a crimped lid and the method for producing this container. For this purpose, a sealing material is placed between the cover and the body of the container. The lid crimps on its periphery a double fold and is folded against the end wall of the container.
  • a container of the type set out in the preamble of claim 1 comprises a composite tubular body, a cover and a bottom and a hot-melt connection interposed between said cover and / or bottom and the tubular body for fixing thereto, the container described in this document being able to receive liquids to be sterilized.
  • this packaging requires the presence of an annular reinforcement located in the vicinity of the ends of the tubular body and being in the form of a protruding bead.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks.
  • the invention solves the problem of creating containers formed of a composite hollow tubular body and a bottom and / or lid of which the connections between said body and the bottom and / or the cover resist both internal pressure and relatively high external pressure. Furthermore, these containers are devoid of any protruding bead at the location of said connections, which makes it possible to attach the bodies of the containers and, thus, to gain storage volume and to increase the stability of a stack of containers. superimposed.
  • connection between the hollow tubular body and the bottom and / or the cover is consolidated, thus making it possible to annihilate practically any deformation and / or tearing of the bottom and / or the cover under the effect of external or internal pressure while increasing the tightness of the container, on the one hand, vis-à-vis a liquid content under pressure and, on the other hand, vis-à-vis atmospheric agents external.
  • the container for products under relatively high pressure such as beer, sparkling water and the like or for products requiring heat treatment for pasteurization or sterilization of the content.
  • the container 1 comprises a hollow tubular body 2 of any cross section, for example circular, polygonal or the like.
  • This hollow tubular body 2 is closed at one of its ends 3 with a bottom 4 and at the other end 5 with a cover 6.
  • the bottom 4 and the cover 6 are practically of the same constitution, except that the cover 6 may include an opening means for extracting the content.
  • the content can be any, for example food, chemical, industrial or other products in the form of granules, powders, liquids or gases, products under pressure or products requiring heat treatment such as pasteurization and / or sterilization.
  • said end 3 or 5 is given a flared neck 15.
  • the bottom 4 and / or the cover 6 are formed by a shutter flange 16, a flange 17 connected by a rounded 18 to said shutter flange 16 and an annular flange 19 connected to the flange 17 by a rounded 20 and formed a flat part 21 and an end 22 slightly curved downwards.
  • the collar 17 has a tapered cartaine to facilitate the introduction of the bottom 4 and / or of the cover 6 into the flared neck 15 produced at the ends 3 and 5 of the hollow tubular body 2.
  • the shutter flange 16 When the bottom 4 or the cover 6 is intended for a container containing a product under pressure, the shutter flange 16 has a convex bending 23 (see FIG. 4). In the case of a beer, the pressure can reach 6.5 bars for a temperature of the order of 65 degrees Celsius.
  • the flange shutter 16 is plane.
  • the heat treatment resulting in a certain expansion of the shutter flange 16 " there are provided in the latter bosses in the form of concentric waves 24, 25 whose voids 26, 27 allow the expansions of the shutter flange 16 1 to be absorbed ( see figure 5).
  • the shape of the bottom 4 or of the cover 6 is obtained by stamping or by any other means making it possible to obtain a bottom 4 and / or a cover 6 adapted to the shape of the section of the hollow tubular body 2.
  • the bottom 4 or the cover 6 is formed of a strip 28 whose internal face 29 in contact with the contents is covered with a food resin 30.
  • the bottom 4 or the cover 6 is provided with a hot-melt film 31 applied to the food resin 30.
  • This hot-melt film 31 extends over the entire height of the flange 17 and on the lower face 32 of the flat part 21 of the annular rim 19 up to the edge 33 of the end curved 22.
  • the hot-melt connection between the hollow tubular body 2 and the bottom 4 or the cover 6 depends essentially on the size of the height of the flange 17.
  • connection can be consolidated by a seal 34 arranged in the internal corner 35 formed by the flange 17 and the flat part 21 of the annular rim 19.
  • This seal 34 applied to the hot-melt film 31 extends over a certain length 36 of the flat part 21 of the annular rim 19 and over a certain height 37 of the flange 17.
  • the height 37 is greater than the length 36.
  • the pre-crimping is followed either by a final crimping, or a final die-stamping.
  • the flange 17 of the bottom 4 and / or of the cover 6 is straightened so that it is applied entirely against the internal face 39 of the hollow tubular body 2 while the lower face 32 of the flat part 21 of the annular rim 19 is applied against the edge 38 of the flared neck 15 and, on the other hand, the flared neck 15 itself to tilt it towards the central axis of the hollow tubular body 2.
  • the curved end 22 of the annular rim 19 of the bottom 4 or of the cover 6 intimately marries the external face 40 of the neck 15 so that the edge 33 of the annular rim 19 is encrusted in the outer periphery 11 of the hollow tubular body 2, that is to say that this outer periphery 11 undergoes local crushing defining a peripheral groove inside which the edge 33 of the annular rim 19 engages.
  • the outer periphery of fixing 7, 8 of the bottom 4 or of the cover 6 is located recessed with respect to u outer periphery 11 of the hollow tubular body 2.
  • the external fixing periphery 7, 8 of the bottom 4 or of the cover 6 is in the same vertical plane 9, 10 as the external periphery 11 of the hollow tubular body 2 and the flared neck 15 is erased and is located in the extension of the hollow tubular body 2.
  • the hot-melt film 31 is welded, this welding being able to be carried out by conduction, high-frequency, ultrasound, by laser or by mechanical means such as heating knobs , swivel wheels or the like.
  • the first zone 41 acting against humidity and representing a tear resistance of the order of 15% relative to the total resistance is located at the end 3, 5 of the hollow body 2
  • the second zone 42 representing a tear resistance of the order of 5% relative to the total resistance is located on the edge 38 of the hollow body 2
  • the third zone 43 relates to the seal and it is formed by the seal 34 and the fourth zone 44 representing a tear resistance of the order of 80% relative to the total resistance is located at l location of the collar 17.
