Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un colis pour l'expédition de marchandises contre remboursement, comprenant autour des marchandises un emballage constitué par une housse tubulaire en feuille de matière thermoplastique fermée à ses extrémités opposées par deux soudures, ainsi qu'à un procédé pour la fabrication d'un tel colis.The present invention relates to a package for the shipment of goods against reimbursement, comprising around the goods a packaging consisting of a tubular cover made of a sheet of thermoplastic material closed at its opposite ends by two welds, as well as to a method for the manufacture of such a package.

Notamment dans la vente par correspondance, de nombreuses expéditions de marchandises sont faites contre remboursement. A cet effet, le préposé du bureau de poste dont dépend le destinataire doit recevoir, en même temps que les colis contenant les marchandises, un document d'envoi contre remboursement (dit mandat).In particular in mail order, many shipments of goods are made against reimbursement. For this purpose, the post office attendant on whom the recipient depends must receive, at the same time as the packages containing the goods, a document of sending against reimbursement (said money order).

Jusqu'à présent, cette formule de contre remboursement est contenue dans une pochette collée sur l'emballage du colis, ce qui fait que le préposé a accès à cette formule, mais non pas au contenu du colis.So far, this cash on delivery formula is contained in a pouch stuck on the package's packaging, which means that the attendant has access to this formula, but not to the contents of the package.

Ce mode d'expédition des marchandises contre remboursement présente deux principaux inconvénients.This method of shipping COD goods has two main drawbacks.

D'une part, du fait que la pochette contenant la formule de contre remboursement est fixée par collage à l'extérieur du colis, les risques d'arrachement de la pochette, donc de perte de la formule de contre remboursement, sont considérables. Or, tout colis arrivant au bureau destinataire sans la formule de contre remboursement est systématiquement retourné à l'expéditeur.On the one hand, the fact that the pocket containing the cash on delivery formula is fixed by bonding to the outside of the package, the risks of the bag being torn off, and therefore of losing the cash on delivery formula, are considerable. However, any package arriving at the office of destination without the COD formula is systematically returned to the sender.

D'autre part, la confection des colis implique beaucoup de main d'oeuvre dans la mesure où il est nécessaire de coller manuellement, sur chaque colis, une pochette contenant la formule de contre remboursement correspondant au contenu du colis.On the other hand, the preparation of packages involves a lot of manpower insofar as it is necessary to manually stick, on each package, a pocket containing the cash on delivery formula corresponding to the contents of the package.

D'un autre côté, dans la vente par correspondance, l'expédition normale (pas contre remboursement) des marchandises s'effectue sous un emballage constitué par une housse de feuille de matière thermoplastique, au moins partiellement transparente, l'adresse du destinataire étant généralement inscrite sur une fiche disposée à l'intérieur du colis, c'est-à-dire à l'intérieur de la housse. Ce mode d'emballage qui se prête à une mécanisation poussée n'est pas utilisé jusqu'à présent pour l'expédition de marchandises contre remboursement, aucune solution satisfaisante n'existant à l'heure actuelle pour l'expédition de la formule de contre remboursement.On the other hand, in mail order sales, normal shipping (not COD) of goods is carried out in a packaging consisting of a cover of a sheet of thermoplastic material, at least partially transparent, the address of the recipient being generally written on a card placed inside the package, that is to say inside the cover. This packaging method which lends itself to advanced mechanization has not been used until now for the dispatch of COD goods, no satisfactory solution currently exists for the dispatch of the counter formula. refund.

La présente invention a pour objet un colis d'expédition de marchandises contre remboursement éliminant les risques de perte de la formule de contre remboursement et permettant une mécanisation de la formation des colis, c'est-à-dire une réduction des frais de main d'oeuvre.The subject of the present invention is a cash-on-delivery shipping package eliminating the risk of losing the cash-on-delivery formula and allowing mechanization of the formation of the packages, that is to say a reduction in labor costs. 'artwork.

L'invention a également pour objet un procédé simple et fiable de fabrication de tels colis d'expédition de marchandises contre remboursement.The invention also relates to a simple and reliable method of manufacturing such packages for dispatching goods for reimbursement.

Le colis conforme à l'invention pour l'expédition de marchandises contre remboursement comprend, autour de la marchandise, une housse tubulaire en feuille de matière thermoplastique, fermée à ses extrémités opposées par deux soudures. Le colis comprend, en outre, une pochette rectangulaire de feuille de matière thermoplatique disposée à l'intérieur de la housse, contenant une formule de contre remboursement et formée de deux plis réunis sur trois côtés de la pochette, un premier des plis étant prolongé par rapport au second sur le quatrième côté ouvert de la pochette et étant relié, à son extrémité libre, à la housse par l'une des soudures de cette dernière. La housse présente, de son côté, le long de ladite soudure, une ligne de déchirure dans sa partie se trouvant en face du second pli de la pochette.The package according to the invention for the dispatch of goods against reimbursement includes, around the goods, a tubular cover made of a sheet of thermoplastic material, closed at its opposite ends by two welds. The package also includes a rectangular pocket of sheet of thermoplastic material arranged inside the cover, containing a cash on delivery formula and formed by two folds joined on three sides of the pocket, a first of the folds being extended by compared to the second on the fourth open side of the pocket and being connected, at its free end, to the cover by one of the welds of the latter. The cover has, for its part, along said weld, a tear line in its part located opposite the second fold of the pocket.

La pochette contenant la formule de contre remboursement se trouve ainsi enfermée à l'intérieur de la housse, donc protégée contre toute perte, et le préposé peut néanmoins accéder à cette formule, en ouvrant partiellement l'emballage suivant la ligne de déchirure et en retirant la formule de la pochette ouverte, cette dernière empêchant ou gênant pour le moins l'accès à la marchandise sans déchirure complète de la housse.The pouch containing the cash on delivery formula is thus enclosed inside the cover, therefore protected against loss, and the attendant can nevertheless access this formula, by partially opening the packaging along the tear line and removing the formula of the open pouch, the latter preventing or hampering at least access to the goods without complete tearing of the cover.

De préférence, la ligne de déchirure présente une longueur ou au plus égale à la longueur du côté ouvert de la pochette.Preferably, the tear line has a length or at most equal to the length of the open side of the pouch.

Grâce à cette caractéristique, l'accès aux marchandises contenues dans l'emaballage, après ouverture de ce dernier suivant la ligne de déchirure, est rendu encore plus difficile.Thanks to this characteristic, access to the goods contained in the packaging, after opening the latter along the tear line, is made even more difficult.

Dans le cas de colis relativement plats, renfermant outre la marchandise, une feuille de matière rigide telle que du carton, de dimesnions légèrement inférieures à celles du colis, les marchandises étant disposées d'un côté de cette feuille, il est avantageux que la pochette soit fixée par collage par son premier pli sur ladite feuille, sur le côté de la feuille opposée à celui sur lequel se trouvent les marchandises.In the case of relatively flat packages, containing in addition to the goods, a sheet of rigid material such as cardboard, of dimensions slightly smaller than those of the package, the goods being arranged on one side of this sheet, it is advantageous that the pocket is fixed by gluing with its first fold on said sheet, on the side of the sheet opposite to that on which the goods are located.

Cette feuille rigide et le fait que la pochette soit collée sur cette feuille empêchent toute possibilité d'accès à la marchandise après ouverture partielle de la housse suivant la ligne de déchirure seulement. Pour accéder à la marchandise, il est nécessaire de déchirer complètement la housse, ce qui n'est effectué que par le destinataire. Par conséquent, le colis est inviolable, en ce sens que toute déchirure de la housse autre que celle nécessaire pour accéder à la formule de contre remboursement est décelable par le destinataire.This rigid sheet and the fact that the pouch is glued to this sheet prevents any possibility of access to the goods after partial opening of the cover along the tear line only. To access the goods, it is necessary to completely tear the cover, which is only done by the recipient. Consequently, the package is inviolable, in the sense that any tearing of the cover other than that necessary to access the cash on delivery formula can be detected by the recipient.

Le procédé conforme à l'invention de fabrication d'un colis d'expédition de marchandise contre remboursement de forme générale plate et rectangulaire consiste à introduire les marchandises à expédier, posées sur une première face d'une feuille de matériau rigide tel que du carton, ayant des dimensions légèrement inférieures à celles du colis, dans une housse tubulaire de feuille de matière thermoplastique, fermée par soudure à une première extrémité, et à fermer ensuite la housse par soudure à sa seconde extrémité. Avant l'introduction des marchandise sur la feuille rigide dans la housse, on colle la pochette de feuille de matière thermoplastique, contenant la formule de contre remboursement, par son premier pli sur la seconde face de ladite feuille rigide, en la positionnant de manière que le prolongement du premier pli de la pochette dépasse le bord de la feuille rigide tournée vers l'extrémité ouverte de la housse et que le prolongement du premier pli s'étende au moins jusqu'à la ligne correspondant à la soudure de fermeture de la housse à la seconde extrémité.The process in accordance with the invention for manufacturing a consignment package for cash on delivery of a generally flat and rectangular shape consists in introducing the goods to be shipped, placed on a first face of a sheet of rigid material such as cardboard , having dimensions slightly smaller than those of the package, in a tubular cover of a sheet of thermoplastic material, closed by welding at a first end, and then closing the cover by welding at its second end. Before introducing the goods on the rigid sheet in the cover, the pouch of thermoplastic material sheet, containing the cash on delivery formula, is glued by its first fold on the second face of said rigid sheet, positioning it so that the extension of the first fold of the pocket exceeds the edge of the rigid sheet facing the open end of the cover and that the extension of the first fold extends at least up to the line corresponding to the weld closing the cover at the second end.

Etant donné que la feuille de matériau rigide présente des dimensions correspondant presque aux dimensions de la housse, il est ainsi possible de positionner la pochette avec précision par rapport à la seconde soudure de la housse de manière à assurer avec certitude que le premier pli de la pochette se trouve pris dans cette soudure.Since the sheet of rigid material has dimensions almost corresponding to the dimensions of the cover, it is thus possible to position the pouch precisely relative to the second weld of the cover so as to ensure with certainty that the first fold of the pocket is caught in this weld.

En se référant au dessin schématiquement annexé, on va décrire ci-après plus en détail un mode de réalisation illustratif et non limitatif d'un de colis conforme à l'invention; sur le dessin :

  • la figure 1 est une vue de dessus d'un colis conforme à l'invention, avec arrachement partiel de l'emballage;
  • la figure 2 est une coupe, à plus grande échelle, suivant II-II de la figure 1;
  • la figure 3 est une coupe correspondant à cette de la figure 2, après ouverture partielle de la housse le long de la ligne de déchirure donnant accès à la formule de contre remboursement.
Referring to the diagram schematically appended, there will be described below in more detail an illustrative and nonlimiting embodiment of a package according to the invention; on the drawing :
  • Figure 1 is a top view of a package according to the invention, with partial cutaway of the packaging;
  • Figure 2 is a section, on a larger scale, along II-II of Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 is a section corresponding to that of Figure 2, after partial opening of the cover along the tear line giving access to the cash on delivery formula.

Selon les figures 1 et 2, un colis 1 contenant des marchandises 2 est entouré d'un emballage constitué d'une housse 3 formée de deux plis 4, 5 de feuille de matière thermoplastique. Dans l'exemple représenté, les deux plis 4, 5 sont constitués par deux feuilles rectangulaires reliées entre elles par des soudures 6, 7, 8, 9 sur les quatre bords de l'emballage 3.According to Figures 1 and 2, a package 1 containing goods 2 is surrounded by a packaging consisting of a cover 3 formed by two plies 4, 5 of sheet of thermoplastic material. In the example shown, the two folds 4, 5 consist of two rectangular sheets linked together by welds 6, 7, 8, 9 on the four edges of the package 3.

Une feuille 10 de matériau rigide, par exemple de carton ondulé, de taille légèrement inférieur à l'emballage 3, est disposée à l'intérieur de l'emballage 3, entre les marchandises 2 et le pli 5 de l'emballage 3.A sheet 10 of rigid material, for example corrugated cardboard, of size slightly smaller than the packaging 3, is placed inside the packaging 3, between the goods 2 and the fold 5 of the packaging 3.

Entre la feuille 10 et le pli 5 de l'emballage 3 est disposée une pochette 11 rectangulaire formée de deux plis 12, 13 de feuille de matière thermoplastique. La pochette 11 qui est plus petite que la feuille 10 est fermée sur trois côtés 14, 15, 16 et ouverte sur le quatrième côté. Dans l'exemple représenté, comme le montre la figure 2, la pochette est constituée par un morceau rectangulaire de feuille de matière thermoplastique plié sur lui-même de manière que les deux plis 12, 13 aient des longueurs différentes. Les deux plis 12, 13 sont soudés entre eux le long des deux bords opposés 14, 15, et sur le bord ouvert de la pochette, c'est-à-dire à l'opposé du bord 16 obtenu par pliage de la feuille, le pli 12 qui se trouve en face de la feuille de carton 10 est prolongé par rapport au pli 13 qui se trouve en face du pli 5 de la housse 3.Between the sheet 10 and the fold 5 of the package 3 is disposed a rectangular pocket 11 formed by two folds 12, 13 of sheet of thermoplastic material. The pocket 11 which is smaller than the sheet 10 is closed on three sides 14, 15, 16 and open on the fourth side. In the example shown, as shown in Figure 2, the pocket is constituted by a rectangular piece of sheet of thermoplastic material folded on itself so that the two folds 12, 13 have different lengths. The two folds 12, 13 are welded together along the two opposite edges 14, 15, and on the open edge of the pocket, that is to say opposite the edge 16 obtained by folding the sheet, the fold 12 which is opposite the sheet of cardboard 10 is extended relative to the fold 13 which is opposite the fold 5 of the cover 3.

Tel que cela apparaît sur la figure 2, l'extrémité libre du pli 12 de la pochette 11 est prise dans la soudure 9 des deux plis 4, 5 de la housse 3, ce qui rend la pochette 11 disposée à l'intérieur de la housse 3 solidaire de cette dernière.As shown in Figure 2, the free end of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 is caught in the weld 9 of the two folds 4, 5 of the cover 3, which makes the pocket 11 disposed inside the cover 3 integral with the latter.

La pochette 11 renferme une formule de mandat contre remboursement référencée 17.The pocket 11 contains a cash on delivery mandate formula referenced 17.

La formule 17 est ainsi contenu à l'intérieur de l'emballage 3 du colis 1 et ne peut pas se perdre pendant l'acheminement du colis.The formula 17 is thus contained inside the packaging 3 of the package 1 and cannot be lost during the delivery of the package.

Le pli 5 de la housse 3 du colis 1 comporte, au voisinage de la soudure 9, une ligne de déchirure 18 constituée par exemple par une ligne de perforations s'étendant parallèlement à la soudure 9 le long de l'extrémité libre du pli 13 de la pochette 11.The fold 5 of the cover 3 of the package 1 comprises, in the vicinity of the weld 9, a tear line 18 constituted for example by a line of perforations extending parallel to the weld 9 along the free end of the fold 13 of folder 11.

Lorsque le colis 1 ainsi constitué arrive au bureau des PTT dont dépend le destinataire du colis, le préposé, en présence du destinataire, ouvre l'emballage le long de la ligne de déchirure 18 pour retirer de la pochette 11 la formule de mandat 17 (flèche 19 sur la figure 3) et encaisser la somme qui s'y trouve inscrite avant de remettre l'ensemble du colis au destinataire qui doit ensuite déchirer davantage la housse 3 pour avoir accès aux marchandises 2.When the package 1 thus formed arrives at the PTT office on which the recipient of the package depends, the attendant, in the presence of the recipient, opens the packaging along the tear line 18 to remove the mandate form 17 from the pocket 11 ( arrow 19 in FIG. 3) and collect the amount written there before delivering the entire package to the recipient, who must then tear the cover 3 further to gain access to the goods 2.

Il apparaît clairement que le fente résultant de l'ouverture partielle de l'emballage 3 le long de la ligne de déchirure 18 ne permet pas d'avoir accès aux marchandises 2, du fait de la présence du pli 12 de la pochette 11 et en particulier de la feuille de carton 10 entre la fente ainsi créée et la marchandise 2. Cet accès peut être rendu plus difficile, voire impossible, par le fait que la pochette 11 est collée sur la feuille de carton 10 sur toute ou partie de la zone de contact du pli 12 de la pochette 11 avec la feuille de carton 10.It clearly appears that the slot resulting from the partial opening of the packaging 3 along the tear line 18 does not allow access to the goods 2, due to the presence of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 and in particular of the cardboard sheet 10 between the slot thus created and the goods 2. This access can be made more difficult, if not impossible, by the fact that the pocket 11 is glued to the cardboard sheet 10 over all or part of the area of contact of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 with the sheet of cardboard 10.

Pour réaliser le colis 1 tel que décrit et illustré, on forme d'abord de façon usuelle une housse tubulaire à partir de deux plis 4, 5 de feuilles de matière thermoplastique, la feuille 4 étant de préférence opaque et/ou colorée et la feuille 5 étant transparente. On ferme la housse à une extrémité. On colle, sur une feuille de carton 10, la pochette 11 contenant le mandat 17, de manière que l'extrémité libre du pli 12 de la pochette 11 dépasse un bord de la feuille de carton 10.To produce the package 1 as described and illustrated, a tubular cover is first formed in the usual way from two plies 4, 5 of sheets of thermoplastic material, the sheet 4 preferably being opaque and / or colored and the sheet 5 being transparent. The cover is closed at one end. The pocket 11 containing the mandate 17 is glued to a sheet of cardboard 10, so that the free end of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 projects beyond an edge of the cardboard sheet 10.

On retourne le carton 10 de manière que la pochette 11 se trouve sur le dessous et on pose sur la face supérieure du carton 10 les marchandises 2 à expédier.The carton 10 is turned over so that the pocket 11 is on the bottom and the goods 2 to be shipped are placed on the upper face of the carton 10.

On introduit ensuite, dans la housse, la marchandise 2 avec le carton 10 et la pochette 11 contenant le mandat 17, de maqnière que l'extrémité du pli 12 de la pochette 11 vienne se placer dans l'extrémité ouverte de la housse, c'est-à-dire entre les bords non encore réunis de la housse.Then introduced into the cover, the goods 2 with the carton 10 and the pocket 11 containing the mandate 17, so that the end of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 is placed in the open end of the cover, c 'ie between the not yet joined edges of the cover.

On procède alors à la fermeture du colis en réalisant la soudure 9 à l'extrémité ouverte de la housse. l'extrémité libre du pli 12 de la pochette 11 étant prise dans cette soudure.The package is then closed by carrying out the welding 9 at the open end of the cover. the free end of the fold 12 of the pocket 11 being taken in this weld.

Il va de soi que le mode de réalisation illustré et décrit n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple non limitatif et que de nombreuses modifications et variantes sont possibles dans le cadre des revendications.It goes without saying that the embodiment illustrated and described has been given only by way of nonlimiting example and that numerous modifications and variants are possible within the scope of the claims.

Ainsi, la feuille de carton 10 n'est pas absolument indispensable pour réaliser un colis conforme à l'invention, bien qu'elle facilite la fabrication du colis et améliore "l'inviolabilité" du colis.Thus, the cardboard sheet 10 is not absolutely essential for producing a package according to the invention, although it facilitates the manufacture of the package and improves the "inviolability" of the package.

Par ailleurs, la housse pourrait être réalisée par exemple à partir d'une feuille tubulaire au lieu d'être formée par deux feuilles réunies par soudage.Furthermore, the cover could be produced for example from a tubular sheet instead of being formed by two sheets joined by welding.
