Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new packaging made of corrugated cardboard or the like, capable of being moved using forklift devices.
- This type of packaging is the subject of the present invention and it aims to propose a variant, simpler to produce and less costly than usual packaging of this kind, due to the lower consumption of corrugated cardboard or 'a similar material from which the packaging is made.
- the subject of the invention is a parallelepipedic packaging made of corrugated cardboard or the like, the packaging body of which comprises at its lower part external longitudinal flaps adjoining the longitudinal walls and internal transverse flaps adjoining the transverse walls, said flaps being arranged perpendicular to the associated walls and being assembled together so as to form a bottom or to maintain a removable bottom, and the base of which comprises parallel supports made of sheaths made of independent elements and provided with reinforcing elements, characterized in that that said sleeves are fixed to the interior transverse flaps, parallel to the transverse walls and between the longitudinal flaps and in that said reinforcing elements have a length equal to that of the transverse walls.
- the sleeves will have a rectangular or square section and can thus be pre-glued or stapled flat on the transverse flaps of the cardboard blank from which the packaging body originates.
- the sleeves can be reinforced internally by cardboard elements in the shape of a V-shaped gutter, as in the prior art, or by blocks of an expanded plastic material such as polystyrene foam.
- the removable bottom may be flat or itself include, on its external face, a support element parallel to the sleeves adjoining the transverse flaps and consisting of either an independent sleeve fixed to the bottom, or a part with a U-shaped section at the bottom.
- the body of the package according to the invention has a parallelepiped shape and comprises, on the one hand, two longitudinal walls 1, to which are attached at their lower part longitudinal strips 2, folded down perpendicularly, and, on the other hand, two transverse walls 3, provided at their lower part with two transverse bands 4, folded perpendicularly.
- a tongue, adjoining a transverse wall 3, is glued or stapled during assembly of the body against the contiguous longitudinal wall 1, and the transverse and longitudinal flaps can themselves be optionally assembled together by gluing or stapling, leaving a empty at the base of the packaging body.
- the bottom of the packaging is supported on the flaps. It can consist of a simple cardboard plate, as in so-called “mechanizable” packaging, which is filled from the top by lowering the bottom part using a jack, as it receives successive layers of products to be packaged.
- two sleeves 5 of square or rectangular section are fixed on the transverse flaps between the longitudinal flaps, in order to serve as packaging supports, between which a fork of a handling machine can be inserted.
- These sheaths can be made of cardboard or corrugated cardboard and are then reinforced internally either by masses 6 of a plastic foam, or by cardboard elements in the shape of a gutter with a V section, or by any other type of reinforcement.
- the sleeves 5 are made of cardboard, they can advantageously be prefixed on the flaps 4 of the cardboard blank, as can be seen in FIG. 1, and folded over this blank so as to allow flat storage of the blanks, prior to mounting the packaging bodies.
- the blocks 6 have a length corresponding to the transverse dimension of the base of the packaging, so that they lock the longitudinal strips 2 in the folded position, without it being necessary to make them integral with the cross bands 4.
- the bottom part of the packaging may itself include a support part.
- the bottom comprises in its middle part a portion 9 with a U-shaped cross section equal to that of the sleeves 5, which projects outwards from the packaging and which can receive a block 6 of reinforcement.
- a sheath 5 can also be glued to the external face of the bottom 10.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 is shown another type of packaging, the flaps 13 adjoining the longitudinal walls 1 and the flaps 14 adjoining the transverse walls 3 overlap to form the bottom of the packaging and are optionally assembled together by bonding. or stapling.
- the sleeves 15 are fixed to the transverse flaps 14 between cutouts 16 formed in the longitudinal flaps 13.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate another type of packaging in which the bottom of the packaging consists of flaps 17 adjoining the transverse walls 3 and flaps 18 adjoining the longitudinal walls 1, with the sleeves 19 fixed to the transverse flaps 17.
- the longitudinal flaps 18 comprise flaps 20, articulated on the body of the flap by parallel fold lines 21 and engaged inside the packaging above the flaps 17.
- reinforcements made of expanded plastic material are engaged in the sleeves 19 and lock the flaps 18 in the assembled position.
- the invention therefore provides a new type of packaging that is easy to produce and inexpensive, capable of being moved by forklift handling equipment.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un nouvel emballage en carton ondulé ou similaire, apte à être déplacé à l'aide de dispositifs de manutention à fourche.The present invention relates to a new packaging made of corrugated cardboard or the like, capable of being moved using forklift devices.
Pendant de très nombreuses années, la manutention des conditionnements de grand volume s'est effectuée en utilisant des palettes en bois, que déplaçaient des chariots de manutention à fourche. La nécessité de récupérer les palettes et la phase supplémentaire qu'imposait au processus de manutention la mise en place des emballages sur les palettes ont conduit ensuite à utiliser des conditionnements du type caisse-palettes, dans lesquels la palette en bois ou en matière plastique faisait corps avec l'emballage proprement dit.For many years, the handling of large volumes of packaging was carried out using wooden pallets, which were moved by forklift trucks. The need to recover the pallets and the additional phase imposed on the handling process by placing the packaging on the pallets then led to the use of packaging of the pallet box type, in which the wooden or plastic pallet made body with the actual packaging.
Ces emballages complexes étant relativement coûteux, on a ensuite cherché à les simplifier en remplaçant la palette solidaire du fond par un fond amovible ou constitué de rabats attenants aux parois latérales, ce fond comprenant sur sa face inférieure des parties formant support, entre lesquelles pouvaient être engagées les dents des fourches des engins de manutention. Les supports attenants au fond étaient constitués, par exemple, par des fourreaux de carton dans lesquels étaient engagés des éléments de renfort, généralement eux aussi en carton et ayant une forme de gouttière à section transversale en V (brevet français n° 1 552 839).These complex packages being relatively expensive, we then sought to simplify them by replacing the pallet integral with the bottom with a removable bottom or consisting of flaps adjoining the side walls, this bottom comprising on its underside parts forming a support, between which could be engaged the tines of the forks of the handling equipment. The supports adjoining the bottom consisted, for example, of cardboard sheaths in which were engaged reinforcing elements, generally also made of cardboard and having a shape of gutter with a V cross section (French Patent No. 1,552,839) .
C'est à ce type de conditionnement que s'intéresse la présente invention et elle vise à proposer une variante, plus simple à réaliser et moins coûteuse que les emballages usuels de ce genre, du fait d'une moindre consommation du carton ondulé ou d'un matériau similaire dont est constitué l'emballage.This type of packaging is the subject of the present invention and it aims to propose a variant, simpler to produce and less costly than usual packaging of this kind, due to the lower consumption of corrugated cardboard or 'a similar material from which the packaging is made.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un emballage parallélépipédique en carton ondulé ou similaire dont le corps d'emballage comporte à sa partie inférieure des rabats longitudinaux extérieurs attenants aux parois longitudinales et des rabats transversaux intérieurs attenants aux parois transversales, lesdits rabats étant disposés perpendiculairement aux parois associées et étant assemblés entre eux de manière à constituer un fond ou à maintenir un fond amovible, et dont la base comporte des supports parallèles constitués de fourreaux constitués d'éléments indépendants et munis d'éléments de renforts, caractérisé en ce que lesdits fourreaux sont fixés sur les rabats transversaux intérieurs, parallèlement aux parois transversales et entre les rabats longitudinaux et en ce que lesdits éléments de renfort ont une longueur égale à celle des parois transversales.To this end, the subject of the invention is a parallelepipedic packaging made of corrugated cardboard or the like, the packaging body of which comprises at its lower part external longitudinal flaps adjoining the longitudinal walls and internal transverse flaps adjoining the transverse walls, said flaps being arranged perpendicular to the associated walls and being assembled together so as to form a bottom or to maintain a removable bottom, and the base of which comprises parallel supports made of sheaths made of independent elements and provided with reinforcing elements, characterized in that that said sleeves are fixed to the interior transverse flaps, parallel to the transverse walls and between the longitudinal flaps and in that said reinforcing elements have a length equal to that of the transverse walls.
Les fourreaux auront une section rectangulaire ou carrée et pourront ainsi être précollés ou agrafés à plat sur les rabats transversaux du flan de carton dont est issu le corps d'emballage.The sleeves will have a rectangular or square section and can thus be pre-glued or stapled flat on the transverse flaps of the cardboard blank from which the packaging body originates.
Les fourreaux pourront être renforcés intérieurement par des éléments de carton en forme de gouttière à section en V, comme dans la technique antérieure, ou par des blocs d'une matière plastique expansée telle qu'une mousse de polystyrène.The sleeves can be reinforced internally by cardboard elements in the shape of a V-shaped gutter, as in the prior art, or by blocks of an expanded plastic material such as polystyrene foam.
Suivant les applications de l'emballage, le fond amovible pourra être plan ou comporter lui- même, sur sa face externe, un élément de support parallèle aux fourreaux attenants aux rabats transversaux et constitué soit d'un fourreau indépendant fixé sur le fond, soit d'une partie à section en U du fond.Depending on the packaging applications, the removable bottom may be flat or itself include, on its external face, a support element parallel to the sleeves adjoining the transverse flaps and consisting of either an independent sleeve fixed to the bottom, or a part with a U-shaped section at the bottom.
Les dessins schématiques annexés représen-. tent différentes formes de mise en oeuvre de l'invention. Sur ces dessins :
- La figure 1 est une vue en plan d'un flan de carton ondulé destiné à la réalisation du corps d'un emballage conforme à l'invention ;
- La figure 2 représente ce corps d'emballage ;
- Les figures 3 à 8 illustrent d'autres formes de réalisation d'un emballage selon l'invention.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of a blank of corrugated cardboard for the production of the body of a package according to the invention;
- Figure 2 shows this packaging body;
- Figures 3 to 8 illustrate other embodiments of a package according to the invention.
Le corps de l'emballage conforme à l'invention a une forme parallélépipédique et comprend, d'une part, deux parois longitudinales 1, auxquelles sont attenantes à leur partie inférieure des bandes longitudinales 2, rabattues perpendiculairement, et, d'autre part, deux parois transversales 3, munies à leur partie inférieure de deux bandes transversales 4, rabattues perpendiculairement. Une languette, attenante à une paroi transversale 3, est collée ou agrafée lors du montage du corps contre la paroi longitudinale 1 contiguë, et les rabats transversaux et longitudinaux peuvent eux-mêmes être éventuellement assemblés entre eux par collage ou agrafage, en laissant subsister un vide à la base du corps d'emballage.The body of the package according to the invention has a parallelepiped shape and comprises, on the one hand, two
Le fond de l'emballage vient prendre appui sur les rabats. Il peut être constitué d'une simple plaque en carton, comme dans les emballages dits « mécanisables », que l'on remplit à partir du haut en abaissant la partie de fond à l'aide d'un vérin, à mesure qu'elle reçoit des couches successives de produits à conditionner.The bottom of the packaging is supported on the flaps. It can consist of a simple cardboard plate, as in so-called "mechanizable" packaging, which is filled from the top by lowering the bottom part using a jack, as it receives successive layers of products to be packaged.
Conformément à l'invention, deux fourreaux 5 à section carrée ou rectangulaire sont fixés sur les rabats transversaux entre les rabats longitudinaux, en vue de servir de supports d'emballage, entre lesquels peut être introduite une fourche d'un engin de manutention. Ces fourreaux peuvent être en carton ou carton ondulé et sont alors renforcés intérieurement soit par des masses 6 d'une mousse plastique, soit par des éléments de carton en forme de gouttière à section en V, ou encore par tout autre type de renfort. Dans le cas où les fourreaux 5 sont en carton, ils peuvent avantageusement être préfixés sur les rabats 4 du flan de carton, comme on le voit sur la figure 1, et repliés sur ce flan de manière à permettre le stockage à plat des flans, préalablement au montage des corps d'emballage.According to the invention, two
On notera la faible quantité de carton nécessitée par les fourreaux 5, ce qui, joint au fait que le flan de carton dont est issu le corps d'emballage ne comporte pratiquement pas de chutes, permet de minimiser le coût de l'emballage. On notera également que les blocs 6 ont une longueur correspondant à la dimension transversale de la base de l'emballage, de sorte qu'ils verrouillent les bandes longitudinales 2 en position rabattue, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de rendre celles-ci solidaires des bandes transversales 4.Note the small amount of cardboard required by the
La partie de fond de l'emballage pourra elle-même comporter une partie formant support.The bottom part of the packaging may itself include a support part.
C'est ainsi que, dans le cas de la figure 3, le fond comporte dans sa partie médiane une portion 9 à section transversale en U égale à celle des fourreaux 5, qui fait saillie vers l'extérieur de l'emballage et qui peut recevoir un bloc 6 de renfort. Alternativement (figure 4), un fourreau 5 peut être également collé sur la face externe du fond 10.Thus, in the case of FIG. 3, the bottom comprises in its middle part a portion 9 with a U-shaped cross section equal to that of the
Sur les figures 5 et 6 est représenté un autre type d'emballage dont les rabats 13 attenants aux parois longitudinales 1 et les rabats 14 attenants aux parois transversales 3 se chevauchent pour former le fond de l'emballage et sont éventuellement assemblés entre eux par collage ou agrafage. Les fourreaux 15 sont fixés sur les rabats transversaux 14 entre des découpes 16 ménagées dans les rabats longitudinaux 13.In FIGS. 5 and 6 is shown another type of packaging, the
Les figures 7 et 8 illustrent un autre type d'emballage dans lequel le fond de l'emballage est constitué par des rabats 17 attenants aux parois transversales 3 et des rabats 18 attenants aux parois longitudinales 1, avec les fourreaux 19 fixés sur les rabats transversaux 17. Les rabats longitudinaux 18 comprennent des volets 20, articulés sur le corps du rabat par des lignes de pliage parallèles 21 et engagés à l'intérieur de l'emballage au-dessus des rabats 17. Comme précédemment, des renforts en matière plastique expansée sont engagés dans les fourreaux 19 et verrouillent les rabats 18 en position assemblée.FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate another type of packaging in which the bottom of the packaging consists of
L'invention apporte donc un nouveau type d'emballage facile à réaliser et peu coûteux, apte à être déplacé par des engins de manutention à fourche.The invention therefore provides a new type of packaging that is easy to produce and inexpensive, capable of being moved by forklift handling equipment.
