Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a new folding packaging of the pallet box type, that is to say comprising a cardboard container, corrugated cardboard or the like, generally of parallelepiped shape, the bottom of which, usually consisting of flaps adjoining the side walls , is fixed on a wooden pallet or similar.
  • the container can be opened at its upper part and then be capped with a lid. It may also include, as at its base, flaps adjoining the side walls, which are folded down after filling and made integral with each other, the container then being of the type of so-called American boxes.
  • Such pallet boxes are being used more and more for the packaging and transport of multiple goods, because they are easy to manufacture, at moderate cost, and can be produced with large dimensions, the pallet of which they are provided which are suitable for easy handling using transport or lifting trolleys.
  • pallet boxes of this type In order to facilitate their storage before use in a small volume, it has been proposed to fold the packaging body flat on the pallet, but pallet boxes of this type generally require, after assembly, the use of vertical beams in wood, known as "candles" in the art, to ensure their satisfactory behavior, and this increases their manufacturing cost and complicates the assembly operations.
  • This packaging is particularly simple, but its formatting by the user is impractical, since nothing is provided for securing together the half-pallets in the assembled position of the packaging, if not wires or strips, passing over the cover and below the bottom.
  • the present invention is concerned with this latter type of packaging, the bottom of which is equipped with half-pallets, and it aims to remedy the drawbacks of the known technique, by proposing a pallet box which can be delivered folded flat to the user and be easily folded by the user.
  • the invention also aims to propose a pallet box of this type, the half-pallets of which equip the bottom are joined by an articulation member, even in the folded position, and thus remain integral with each other in position. climb.
  • the invention also aims to propose a pallet box of this type, in which a plastic bag, integral with the corrugated cardboard container and intended to receive the contents of the pallet box, can be delivered to users pre-assembled with the container and with the half-pallets.
  • pallet boxes are frequently used for packaging loose particulate matter, such as granular polymers or the like.
  • the volume of packaged materials can be very large and their weight often exceeds one tonne.
  • these materials are generally housed in a polyethylene or similar bag inside the pallet box.
  • the present invention overcomes this drawback.
  • the invention relates to a pallet box of the type comprising a container of corrugated cardboard or the like, the external part of the bottom of which comprises two adjoining flaps by a fold line with two opposite parallel walls and on each of which is fixed a wooden half-pallet or the like, characterized in that each of the walls to which the flaps carrying the half-pallets are not contiguous is divided into two equal parts by a fold line parallel to the vertical edges of the container, and in that that the flaps carrying the half-pallets are assembled together so as to form a hinge or are joined by at least one element of cardboard or the like forming a hinge, which is fixed to said flaps and which comprises a fold line arranged along the plane for connecting said half-pallets.
  • the part of the bottom of the pallet box constituted by the flaps carrying the half-pallets locks in the assembled position the body of the container and that the resistance to the vertical compression of the latter is in no way weakened by the presence of the fold lines of the walls not contiguous to the flaps carrying the half-pallets.
  • these walls may themselves have flaps at their base, which will be arranged inside the container and applied against the internal face of the flaps carrying the half-pallets.
  • These flaps will also have fold lines arranged in the same plane as the fold lines of the walls on which they are articulated and, to fold the pallet box flat, it will suffice to apply said flaps against the adjoining walls so that they can themselves undergo an accordion folding.
  • the external flaps of the bottom of the container are no longer joined by a hinge element, but are assembled so as to form themselves a hinge and can pinch the bottom of a plastic bag between them.
  • the subject of the invention is a pallet box of the type mentioned above, characterized in that the external flaps of the bottom of the container are assembled together so as to form a corner dihedral parallel to the fold lines by which these flaps are connected to the walls to which they are contiguous, and in that the distance separating the dihedral edge from said fold lines is equal to half the distance separating said lines walls after setting up the pallet box.
  • the dihedral formed by said flaps thus constitutes a hinge allowing the bottom of the container to be folded flat between the half-pallets on which these flaps are fixed, without it being necessary to use an additional element forming a hinge, provided for in the main patent. .
  • a plastic bag intended to lining the container internally may be pinched by its bottom between the assembled parts of said flaps, thereby being made integral with these.
  • the external flaps may be assembled by any means known in the art, but they will preferably be assembled by gluing, if the bottom of a plastic bag must be pinched between them, so not to weaken this bag. Because of this method of assembling the bag - or the "bag", as we say in the art - and the container, the risks of accidental detachment of these elements are practically negligible.
  • the flaps may be assembled in a strip, in the vicinity of their edge parallel to their line of connection to the adjoining wall, and the assembled parts of said flaps may also be delimited along the edge of said dihedron by parallel fold lines. to these connection lines, so that after the pallet box has been placed in volume, the assembled part of said flaps can be pinched between the half-pallets.
  • the container arranged in accordance with the present invention with or without a plastic bag, also constitutes an object of the invention.
  • the external flaps of the bottom may or may not be doubled inside internal flaps adjoining the other walls and having fold lines parallel to the vertical edges of the container, in line with the fold lines of the walls to which these flaps are attached, as mentioned above.
  • these internal flaps must be small, if they exist, in order to allow the bag to be positioned in the assembled position of the pallet box.
  • a slot may be made in the middle part of these flaps, perpendicular to the adjoining walls to allow passage to this bag.
  • the pallet box shown in Figures 1 to 4 is of a type known per se, comprising a container 1 of corrugated cardboard, in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, resting at its base on a wooden pallet or the like, consisting of two half -palettes 2.
  • Container 1 includes: - On the one hand, two longitudinal walls 3, at the base of which are articulated by a fold line two flaps 4, which constitute the external part of the bottom of the container, and on which are fixed, by gluing, stapling or the like half pallets 2; - On the other hand, two transverse walls 5, at the base of which are articulated by a fold line two flaps 6, which, after assembly of the pallet box, are folded back inside the container against the flaps 4, for constitute the interior part of the bottom.
  • the walls 3 and 5 also have, at their upper part, flaps, respectively 7 and 8, which, after filling the container, are folded down and assembled together to ensure the closing of the pallet box, but it could also include a cover or be equipped with another closure mode.
  • the transverse walls 5 are provided, along the longitudinal longitudinal plane of the container, with a fold line 9, parallel to the vertical edges of the pallet box, which extends, on the flaps 6 and 8, by a fold line, respectively 10 and 11. Furthermore, the flaps 4 adjoining the longitudinal walls 3 are joined by a strip 12 of cardboard or the like, glued against their internal or external face and provided, along the median longitudinal plane of the pallet box, with a fold line 13, which allows this strip 12 to play the role articulation or hinge between the flaps 4.
  • the pallet box can thus be delivered flat to users and be stored in this very small volume.
  • FIGS. 5 to 7 represent variants of the pallet box according to the invention in which the corrugated cardboard container is normally fitted inside a plastic bag, but, for clarity, this bag does not has not been shown in the drawings.
  • the pallet box of FIG. 5 comprises a container 1 ⁇ of corrugated cardboard, in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, resting by its base on a wooden pallet or the like, consisting of two half-pallets 2 ⁇ .
  • the container 1 ⁇ comprises: - On the one hand, two longitudinal walls 3 ⁇ , at the base of which are articulated by a fold line two flaps 4 ⁇ , which constitute the external part of the bottom of the container, and on which are fixed, by gluing, stapling or the like 2 ⁇ half-pallets; - on the other hand, two transverse walls 5 ⁇ , at the base of which are articulated by a fold line two flaps 6 ⁇ , which, after assembly of the pallet box, are folded back inside the container against the flaps 4 ⁇ , for constitute the interior part of the bottom.
  • the flaps 4 ⁇ are assembled by gluing, along a strip 8 ⁇ , in the vicinity of their edge parallel to their line of connection to the wall 3 ⁇ , so as to form a dihedral edge parallel to this line of connection , the strip 8 ⁇ being intended to be housed between the half-pallets 2 ⁇ , by being pinched between them, after the volume of the pallet box.
  • the dihedral formed by the flaps 4 ⁇ constitutes a hinge of articulation between the walls 3 ⁇ and allows the flat folding of the container 1 ⁇ between the half-pallets 2 ⁇ , the transverse walls 5 ⁇ being simultaneously folded accordion around a 9 ⁇ fold line, as described in the main patent.
  • the distance between the edge of the dihedral formed by the flaps 4 ⁇ of the line connecting these flaps to the walls 3 ⁇ is equal to half the distance separating the walls 3 ⁇ after the container 1 ⁇ has been placed in volume, so that the flaps 4 ⁇ thus constitute the bottom of the mounted container.
  • a plastic bag (not shown), intended to receive the articles or materials housed in the container 1 ⁇ , can be pinched between the assembled parts of the flaps 4 ⁇ , thus being perfectly secured to the container, with which it can be delivered pre-assembled to users.
  • the internal flaps 6 ⁇ adjoining the transverse walls 5 ⁇ have a slot 10 ⁇ , in their median part, perpendicular to the 5 ⁇ walls, to allow passage to said bag.
  • the walls 5 ⁇ may be devoid of internal flaps or include flaps 11 ⁇ of very small dimensions which do not form an obstacle to the plastic bag, as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the invention therefore provides users with a new packaging that is simple and easy to assemble, which nonetheless exhibits excellent mechanical strength and perfect stability.
