Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a method and a device for improving the rigidity of a substantially parallelepipedal plastic container, said container being obtained by shaping and welding from a film made of said synthetic material and enveloping the liquid to be condition.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks of the prior art, by proposing a method and a device making it possible to obtain a substantially parallelepipedic container rigidified equally on its four vertical faces.
  • this result is obtained with a method for improving the rigidity of a container substantially flexible parallelepipedic being obtained by shaping and welding from a film made of said synthetic material and enveloping the liquid to be packaged, characterized in that it consists in bringing before conformation on the face of said film not subsequently coming into contact with the liquid for conditioning a second layer of a film of identical or different material, qualified as an over-film, said over-film consisting of multiple bands corresponding to the vertical faces of the final bag, said bands being welded to said film before its conformation according to lines corresponding to the edges of the final parallelepiped container.
  • the invention also relates to a device for implementing said method, device characterized in that it comprises, in an assembly of a first film of flexible synthetic material in containers, a second assembly for supplying over-film taking place perpendicular or parallel to said first film, said second film being attached to the first film by longitudinal and transverse welds corresponding to the edges of the final parallelepiped container.
  • the over-film can be printed and will act as a label.
  • the over-film (5) is placed on the film (2), cut by an assembly (8) schematically represented and welded to said film along longitudinal lines (9,10,11,13,14) and two transverse lines ( 15.16).
  • the side half-panels will be welded together and may on this occasion tighten a ring (24) for gripping the final container.
  • the two side half-panels (21, 22) are thus interconnected and form one face of the final bag by vertical welding on the former (23).
