Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to packages made from a cardboard blank, corrugated cardboard, or other sheet material suitably cut and grooved, comprising, in one piece, for the constitution of a body, a plurality of side panels successively articulated two by two by parallel fold lines, and, for the constitution of a cover, flaps each individually extending said side panels, beyond root fold lines perpendicular to the lines of previous folding.
  • said flaps are at least partially superimposed in pairs, being suitably secured to each other, for example by gluing.
  • a detachable strip precut for this purpose in continuity in at least some, successive, side panels, parallel to the fold lines roots of the flaps which extend these, near the said fold lines roots , usually allows to decapitate the whole, on at least three sides.
  • the first relates to the need to bring a handle to it for easier handling.
  • a second difficulty results from the fact that, moreover, it is desirable that the part detached from the body of the package at the opening of the latter can, at the option of the user, re-close it, in particular if all the content of such a package is not consumed all at once, as is the case, for example, for detergents sold using relatively large capacity packaging.
  • the present invention generally relates to provisions making it possible to overcome these difficulties in a very simple and economical manner.
  • a blank of cardboard, corrugated cardboard or other sheet material comprising, in one piece, for the constitution of a package, to which must be attached independently a handle, a plurality of side panels successively articulated two by two by parallel fold lines, hereinafter said for convenience the main fold lines, and, beyond the root fold lines perpendicular to said fold lines main, flaps each individually extending at least some of said side panels, this blank being generally characterized in that, in each of two flaps extending two opposite side panels is cut a tongue itself from a root fold line perpendicular to the main fold lines, and in that within of such a tab, is found individualized, by a precut line, a detachable portion implanted with ma-. devis being able to be superimposed on the side panel considered when said tongue is folded over it by folding around its root fold line.
  • Such a detachable portion of said tongue is in practice intended to form the reinforcement to be attached to a side panel when it must be secured thereto, by one of its ends, a handle.
  • such reinforcement advantageously does not require, for its implementation, any particular manipulation, which facilitates, and makes more economical, the installation of such a handle. .
  • the detachable portion thus presented by a tab according to the invention forms a lateral extension of this tab, said lateral extension extending substantially at right angles to the current part of the latter.
  • said current part of this tongue forms by itself a tab which, projecting from the underside of the cover previously detached from the body of the packaging, is capable of engaging in the said body, and, thus ensuring good performance of this cover relative to the latter, effectively authorizes the reclosure by the latter.
  • the present invention also relates to the packaging produced using such a blank, as well as the packaging blank, advantageously available flat, previously obtained by bending the tubular sheath thereof.
  • a blank 10 according to the invention is of the type comprising, in one piece, for the constitution of a package to which a handle must be attached independently. 11, a plurality of side panels 12 successively articulated two by two by parallel fold lines 13, said below for the sake of convenience, main fold lines.
  • the desired packaging having to have in cross section a quadrangular contour, four side panels 12 are provided, namely two side panels of smaller width 12A, and two side panels of larger width 12B, which alternate with the previous ones.
  • each of these side panels 12A, 12B is generally quadrangular.
  • a tongue 20 is cut out itself from a root fold line 21 perpendicular to the main fold lines 13, and, within such a tongue 20, is identified by a line pre-cutting 22, a detachable portion 23 located so as to be able to be superimposed on the side panel 12 considered when, as will appear below, said tongue 20 is folded over it by folding around its root fold line 21.
  • the root fold line 21 of a tongue 20 is distinct from the root fold line 16 of the flap 18A in which this tongue 20 is cut, it extends substantially parallel thereto, and, at a distance Dl from it substantially equal to that D2 separating it from said root fold line 16, said tongue 20 is assigned a fold line 24, which is substantially parallel to the previous two, but whose folding direction is opposite to that of the latter.
  • such a fold line 24 is embodied by a buttonhole cut 25 in its central region, to facilitate the corresponding folding.
  • the tongue 20 thus cut from a flap 18A extends along one of the sides thereof, said side being that closest to the flap 18B framed by the flaps 18A from which such a tongue 20 is cut.
  • the tongues 20 of the flaps 18A are established symmetrically on either side of the flap 18B framed by these flaps 18A, as close as possible to this flap 18B.
  • the detachable portion 23 of a tongue 20 forms a lateral extension of the latter, so as to be located substantially at right angles to the median axis of the corresponding side panel 12A.
  • the detachable portion 23 of a tongue 20 according to the invention is substantially square with respect to the current part thereof, at the end of this tongue 20 furthest from its root fold line 21, and the precut line 22 which delimits it is substantially oblique with respect to said root fold line 21.
  • a detachable strip 27, delimited by precut lines 28, is precut in continuity in at least some successive side panels 12, parallel to the root fold lines 16 of the flaps 18 extending these, near the said root fold lines l6.
  • such a detachable strip 27 affects three successive side panels 12, namely the two narrower side panels 12A, and the wider panel 12B framed by them; it also affects the joining strip 15.
  • the length L 1 which, perpendicular to the root fold line 16 of the corresponding flap 18A, has, the portion of a tongue 20 situated beyond its fold line 24 relative to said root fold line 16 is greater than that L 2 at which is established, relative to this same root fold line 16, that of the precut lines 28 of the detachable strip 27 which is closest to said root fold line 16.
  • the detachable portion 23 of a tongue 20 is itself located at a distance L I 1 from the fold line 24 of this tongue 20 at least equal to the distance L ' 2 at which is established, by relative to the root fold line 16 concerned, that of the precut lines 28 of the detachable strip 27 which is the farthest from said root fold line 16.
  • a reinforcing strip 29 is continuously superimposed on the detachable strip 27, in the central region thereof.
  • this detachable strip 27 extends over all of the side panels 12, perpendicular to the main fold lines 13.
  • the side panels 12 can also each be individually extended, beyond the root fold lines perpendicular to the main fold lines 13, by clean flaps to jointly form a base for the desired packaging.
  • it may be flaps specific to the constitution of an automatic background.
  • an independent background can be provided.
  • the blank 10 according to the invention can easily be made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard, or other sheet material suitably cut and grooved, its crease lines constituting the lines of folding, and also the precut lines when, from place to place, they are sufficiently accentuated to cross it right through.
  • detachable portions 23 of the tongues 20 are, first of all, detachable portions 23 of the tongues 20 according to the invention.
  • the tongues 20 are folded over the side panels 12A, by folding 180 ° around their root fold line 21, FIG. 2A.
  • the root fold lines 21 of the tongues 20 are superimposed on the root fold lines 16 of the corresponding flaps 18A and, taking into account the relative values of the lengths L 1 , L 2 , L ' 1 , L' 2 specified.
  • the detachable portions 23 of the tabs 20 are superimposed on the side panels 12A, on the internal face of these, below the detachable strip 27, in the middle area of said side panels 12A.
  • the extreme side panel 12B is folded down, by folding it 180 ° around the main fold line 13 which connects it to the adjacent side panel 12A, then, after gluing the joining strip 15 , to the folding of the extreme side panel 12A, by folding 180 o thereof around the main fold line 13 which connects it to the adjacent side panel 12B, Figure 2B.
  • the two panels of extreme sides 12A, 12B thereof are secured to one another, by the fastening strip 15 provided for this effect.
  • the tubular packaging blank 32 thus obtained is, in a manner known per se, advantageously deliverable flat.
  • the packaging 34 advantageously has, in advance, a local reinforcement on the internal face of each of its two opposite side panels 12A on which such a must be done. implantation.
  • the fitting of the handle 11 can for example be done using rivets 35, one for each of its ends, to allow it to be journalled around these.
  • the flap 18B extending the side panel 12B end which is the one to the right of one of the main fold lines 13 which is the notch 30 locally interrupting the reinforcing strip 29, is folded last, and forms therefore the top of the package 34.
  • the detachable strip 27 is removed, which leads to decapitating the body 36 of this packaging on three sides.
  • the tongues 20 then form, by their remaining part, projecting from the flap 18B concerned or , in other words, on the cover 37 in the constitution of which the latter participates, lugs 39 which, arranged laterally along the edges of such a cover 37, in the corner areas of the latter opposite the hinge by which it is articulated to the body 36, are able to engage in this body 36, in contact with the corresponding side panels 12A, and thus allow the body 36 to be closed.
  • the detachable portion 23 of the tabs 20 are therefore in this case in the extension of the current part thereof, these tabs 20 extend in the middle part of the flaps 18A in which they are cut, and their root fold line is confused with that of these.
  • the application of the invention is not limited to only packages whose cross section is quadrangular but can also be envisaged for example for packages whose cross section is hexagonal.
