Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a packaging of the so-called "integrated pallet” type consisting of elements to be assembled, made of a rigid material, such as corrugated cardboard, from blanks provided with fold lines making it possible to form at least the side walls of the packaging, the bottom of the latter, the hollow profiles associated with said bottom to form the pallet and the means cooperating with the hollow profiles to make them non-deformable when the packaging is used.
  • integrated pallet type consisting of elements to be assembled, made of a rigid material, such as corrugated cardboard, from blanks provided with fold lines making it possible to form at least the side walls of the packaging, the bottom of the latter, the hollow profiles associated with said bottom to form the pallet and the means cooperating with the hollow profiles to make them non-deformable when the packaging is used.
  • pallets generally consisting of an assembly of slats and wooden blocks extending under the entire surface of the bottom of the packages.
  • These pallets have significant drawbacks, the main ones being their dead weight, their size and their cost, the latter being such that they are generally recovered, which leads to other drawbacks, namely in particular storage and transport costs of empty pallets. .
  • various devices consisting of elements to be assembled with the packaging to form a pallet, these elements being lighter and less expensive than conventional wooden pallets.
  • These devices can be classified into three categories, namely: studs, usually made of plastic, which are either attached by strapping to the bottom of the package, or glued to the latter; parallel pads fixed to the bottom of the package by connecting members presented by the pads and hollow profiles, made of the same material that the packaging, fixed parallel to each other at the bottom of the packaging and whose rigidity is ensured by separate elements, such as profiled parts, blocks of expanded plastic material, slipped inside said hollow profiles.
  • the invention relates to a system belonging to the latter category and aims, on the one hand, to remedy the drawbacks presented by the known embodiments and in particular to the major drawback which resides in the fact that the latter are constituted of a relatively large number of elements, these elements being of complex manufacture and their assembly requiring labor and significant facilities and, on the other hand, providing an integrated pallet packaging consisting of an extremely large number reduced of constituent elements, simple to manufacture and easy to assemble, cooperating with one another to simultaneously ensure the assembly of the elements and the rigidity of the hollow sections constituting the pallet.
  • the packaging comprises, to produce its side walls, its bottom, at least two hollow sections constituting the pallet and the means for making the latter non-deformable, two elements, a first element intended to constitute the bottom of the packaging and the hollow profiles forming the pallet and a second element intended to constitute the side walls of the packaging and the means intended to make the hollow profiles non-deformable, these means, presented by the second element, being arranged to cooperate with the first element to help assemble it to the second element.
  • the blank from which the first element is made has the shape of a rectangle, this blank having fold lines, parallel to the short sides of the rectangle and formed on one side of the blank , the two fold lines closest to the center of the blank defining a central panel while the other lines folding lines delimit, on each side of the central panel, at least three panels, the distances separating the folding lines delimiting the first panels, counted from the central panel, reduced by twice the thickness of the blank, and the distances separating the fold lines delimiting the third panels, counted from the central panel, reduced by the thickness of the blank, being substantially equal and corresponding to the internal dimension of the hollow sections taken perpendicular to the bottom of the package, the distance separating the fold lines delimiting the second panels, counted from the central panel and corresponding to the internal dimension of the hollow profiles taken parallel to the bottom of the package and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said profiles correspond to a maximum of half the distance separating the two fold lines delimiting the central panel reduced by four times the
  • the packaging 1, according to the invention and illustrated in the drawings, comprises, to produce its side walls 2, its bottom 3, an integrated pallet consisting of two hollow sections 4 and means 5 to make the latter non-deformable, two elements 6 and 7.
  • a first element 6 is intended to constitute the bottom 3 of the packaging and the hollow sections 4 forming the pallet while a second element 7 is intended to constitute the side walls 2 of the packaging as well as the means 5 provided to make the hollow sections 4 undeformable, these means 5, presented by the element 7, being arranged to cooperate with the element 6 during the assembly of the latter to the second element.
  • Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the simplest embodiment of the pallet.
  • This consists of a first element 6 which has the shape of a rectangle.
  • the two fold lines closest to the center of the blank define a central panel 12, while the other fold lines define, on either side of the central panel 12, four panels 13, 14, 15 and 16.
  • the distances d 31 which separate the fold lines 10 delimiting the first panels 13, reduced by twice the thickness 2 of the blank. and the distances d 37 which separate the lines folding 10 delimiting the third panels 15, reduced by the thickness e of the blank, are substantially equal and correspond to the internal dimension d 4 of the hollow sections 4 taken perpendicular to the bottom 3 of the package.
  • the distance d which separates the fold lines 10 delimiting the second panels 14 and which corresponds to the internal dimension d of the hollow sections 4, taken parallel to the bottom of the package and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 17 of said sections, corresponds to the maximum at half the distance d separating the two fold lines delimiting the central panel 12 reduced by four times the thickness e of the blank.
  • the first element 6 is formed, from said blank 8 by bringing the third panels 15 perpendicular to the central panel 12 and in the same direction, authorized by the fold lines 10 delimiting these third panels 15, by folding down the second panels 14 perpendicular to the central panel 12 and in the same direction as that of the panels 15, so that the latter are directed towards each other, and by folding down the first panels 13 perpendicular to the central panel 12 and in the same direction as that of the third panels 15 so that the latter bear on the central panel 12.

  • This blank has fold lines 10, parallel to the short sides of the rectangle.
  • the two fold lines closest to the center of the blank define a central panel 12, while the other fold lines define, on either side of this central panel, four panels 13, 14, 15, 16.

  • the distances d separating the fold lines 10 delimiting the first and third panels 13 and 15 are substantially equal and correspond to the internal dimension d 4 of the hollow sections 4 taken perpendicular to the bottom 3 of the package.
  • the aforementioned element 6 is formed, from said blank 8, by bringing the first two panels 13 in the same direction and perpendicular to the central panel 12, by folding down the second panels 14 parallel to the central panel 12 so that they are directed l 'towards each other, by folding the third panels 15 towards the central panel 12, perpendicular thereto and by applying the fourth panels 16 on said central panel.
