Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un pot d'emballage pour produit à consistance de gel solide et, notamment, de tels produits comme des flans ou analogues de l'industrie alimentaire.The present invention relates to a packaging jar for a product with a solid gel consistency and, in particular, such products as blanks or the like in the food industry.
Ces derniers, en particulier lorsqu'ils sont destinés à être servis en tant que portions individuelles, sont généralement commercialisés dans des pots tronconiques en matière plastique de qualité alimentaire cannelés ou non sur leur surface latérale. Les techniques de conditionnement en usine de ces produits eux-mêmes ainsi que, le cas échéant, de celui d'un nappage ont pour conséquence que l'extraction du produit gélifié hors du pot et sans détérioration de son aspect est parfois difficile et cela que la gélification du produit ait lieu à l'endroit, -c'est-à-dire avec le pot reposant sur son fond-, ou à l'envers, -c'est-à-dire avec le pot reposant sur un couvercle de fermeture qu'il comprend. Aussi a-t-on déjà proposé, par exemple dans FR-A-2 226 846, un pot à fond d'épaisseur uniforme comportant une protubérance dont la périphérie, d'allure générale tronconique, est interrompue à son raccordement avec ledit fond par une pluralité de plis radiaux et dirigés vers l'extérieur de la surface de ce fond. Un tel pot permet, par une pression sur son fond, d'exercer une poussée sur le produit dans le sens de sa libération et, en outre, en décollant ledit produit dudit fond, une rentrée d'air qui libère le produit de l'adhérence à la paroi et au fond. Un tel dispositif de pot conduit nécessairement, d'une part, pour des produits gélifiés à l'endroit à un aspect de la base du produit une fois démoulé qui n'est pas toujours souhaité et, d'autre part, ne fonctionne de manière satisfaisante qu'avec certains produits à bonnes propriétés de glissement et à texture très solide, comme des glaces ou analogues.The latter, in particular when they are intended to be served as individual portions, are generally sold in frustoconical pots made of food-grade plastic material, fluted or not, on their lateral surface. The techniques for packaging these products in the factory themselves, as well as, if necessary, that of a topping, mean that extracting the gelled product from the jar and without deteriorating its appearance is sometimes difficult, and this the gelling of the product takes place at the place, that is to say with the pot resting on its bottom, or upside down, that is to say with the pot resting on a lid. closure that he understands. It has therefore already been proposed, for example in FR-A-2 226 846, a pot with a bottom of uniform thickness having a protuberance whose periphery, of generally frustoconical appearance, is interrupted at its connection with said bottom by a plurality of radial folds and directed towards the outside of the surface of this bottom. Such a pot allows, by a pressure on its bottom, to exert a push on the product in the direction of its release and, in addition, by peeling said product from said bottom, an air intake which releases the product from the adhesion to the wall and the bottom. Such a jar device necessarily leads, on the one hand, for gelled products at the place to an appearance of the base of the product once removed from the mold which is not always desired and, on the other hand, does satisfactory with certain products with good sliding properties and very solid texture, such as ice cream or the like.
Dans une autre réalisation connue (GB-A-1 299 869) un pot d'emballage de flan ou analogue, en matière plastique, est de forme générale tronconique évasée vers le haut avec un fond comportant une partie convexe vers l'extérieur qui est susceptible d'être inversé par pression des doigts du consommateur pour aider à expulser le produit contenu dans le pot. Dans un tel dispositif, la partie convexe du fond est entièrement comprise à l'intérieur d'un creux formé dans ledit fond, de sorte que le dispositif ne peut être opératoire que si le produit contenu à l'intérieur du pot est un produit relativement solide et n'ayant que peu d'adhérence à la paroi du pot. En outre, un dispositif selon ce brevet britannique n'est que difficilement réalisable par thermo-formage et, quand il est réalisé par cette technique, fournit une partie convexe relativement dure, non déformable, parce que la technique de thermo-formage ne permet pas de fabriquer un fond souple étant donné que la feuille ou film mis en oeuvre pour le thermo-formage est étiré préférentiellement dans la zone de liaison de la paroi latérale à la partie convexe et non pas dans cette dernière partie elle-même.In another known embodiment (GB-A-1 299 869) a jar packaging container or the like, made of plastic, is of generally frustoconical shape flared upwards with a bottom comprising an outwardly convex part which is can be reversed by pressing the consumer's fingers to help expel the product from the jar. In such a device, the convex part of the bottom is entirely inside a hollow formed in said bottom, so that the device can only be operational if the product contained inside the jar is a relatively solid and with little adhesion to the wall of the pot. In addition, a device according to this British patent is only difficult to produce by thermoforming and, when it is produced by this technique, provides a relatively hard, non-deformable convex part, because the thermoforming technique does not allow to manufacture a flexible bottom since the sheet or film used for thermoforming is preferably stretched in the zone of connection of the side wall to the convex part and not in this last part itself.
Le problème se pose donc de fournir un pot de conditionnement pour des produits gélifiés solides qui permette leur démoulage aisé sans présenter les inconvénients des dispositifs précités.The problem therefore arises of providing a packaging jar for solid gelled products which allows them to be easily removed from the mold without having the drawbacks of the aforementioned devices.
C'est, par conséquent, un but de l'invention d'apporter une solution à ce problème en proposant un pot facile à fabriquer, notamment par thermo-formage et, partant, de faible coût, qui assure un démoulage simple et satisfaisant du produit gélifié solide qu'il contient et cela notamment pour des produits comme des flans et autres laits gélifiés.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a solution to this problem by proposing a pot which is easy to manufacture, in particular by thermoforming and, therefore, of low cost, which ensures simple and satisfactory demolding of the solid gelled product which it contains and this in particular for products like blanks and other gelled milks.
Selon l'invention, le problème est résolu par le fait que le fond du pot est conformé de manière telle que sa partie bombée déformable fait saillie à l'extérieur du pot, au-delà de la paroi latérale de celui-ci, dans sa condition initiale qui est celle en laquelle il renferme un produit alimentaire ou analogue à consistance de gel solide.According to the invention, the problem is solved by the fact that the bottom of the pot is shaped in such a way that its deformable curved portion protrudes outside the pot, beyond the side wall thereof, in its initial condition which is that in which it contains a food product or the like with a solid gel consistency.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la liaison du fond au moins en partie bombée à la paroi latérale du pot est marquée par une rupture de la continuité de courbure et/ou de l'épaisseur de l'enveloppe externe que forment la paroi latérale et le fond.According to another characteristic of the invention, the connection of the bottom, at least partially domed, to the side wall of the pot is marked by a break in the continuity of curvature and / or in the thickness of the external envelope formed by the wall. side and bottom.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, on prévoit de ménager sur le fond au moins en partie bombé des excroissances régulièrement réparties et qui, en modifiant localement la rigidité du fond et par conséquent ses caractéristiques de déformabilité, facilitent l'inversion de courbure en tirant partie d'un effet de déclic.According to another characteristic of the invention, provision is made to provide on the bottom, at least partially domed, regularly distributed growths which, by locally modifying the rigidity of the bottom and consequently its deformability characteristics, facilitate the inversion of curvature. taking advantage of a click effect.
Dans une forme de réalisation, le fond présente avantageusement un méplat dans la zone voisine de son axe.In one embodiment, the bottom advantageously has a flat in the area close to its axis.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront de la description qui suit, faite à titre d'exemple et en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel :
- - la figure 1 est une vue en élévation d'une première forme de réalisation d'un pot selon l'invention;
- - la figure 2 est une vue du pot, à l'envers, pour son autre condition ;
- - la figure 3 est une vue en perspective du pot ;
- - la figure 4 est une vue analogue à celle de la figure 3, mais pour une variante ;
- - la figure 5 est une vue partielle, à plus grande échelle, d'une section de la paroi latérale d'un pot selon l'invention.
- - Figure 1 is an elevational view of a first embodiment of a pot according to the invention;
- - Figure 2 is a view of the pot, upside down, for its other condition;
- - Figure 3 is a perspective view of the pot;
- - Figure 4 is a view similar to that of Figure 3, but for a variant;
- - Figure 5 is a partial view, on a larger scale, of a section of the side wall of a pot according to the invention.
On se réfère d'abord aux figures 1 à 3 relatives à une première forme de réalisation d'un tel pot. Celui-ci comporte un fût 1 à paroi latérale 2, par exemple cannelée, -lorsqu'il est utilisé pour l'emballage de produits alimentaires comme des flans ou analogues-, mais sans que cette indication ait quelque caractère limitatif que ce soit, comme il apparaît clairement des figures 4 et 5 qui visent des variantes. La paroi latérale 2 présente, au voisinage de son ouverture de remplissage, un retour en saillie radiale 5 formant une plage de scellage propre à recevoir un opercule de fermeture du pot.We first refer to Figures 1 to 3 relating to a first embodiment of such a pot. This comprises a barrel 1 with a
A l'opposé de son ouverture de remplissage, la paroi latérale 2 du pot présente un fond 10, au moins en partie bombé et qui est raccordé à ladite paroi latérale par un bord ou ligne 11 qui rompt la continuité de courbure de l'enveloppe externe et permet de déformer le fond, en réponse à une pression, pour amener sa courbure, -ici initialement convexe et tournée vers l'extérieur du pot-, de la condition montrée sur la figure 1, c'est-à-dire en laquelle il est extérieur au volume défini par la paroi latérale 2 et un plan P limitant le fut 1 jusqu'en une condition montrée sur la figure 2 en laquelle le fond 10 est à l'intérieur de ce volume, -avec sa convexité tournée vers l'intérieur du pot-, comme illustré par la ligne en trait pointillé de cette figure.Opposite its filling opening, the
Lorsque, après désoperculage du pot, celui-ci est renversé avec son contenu sur un plat ou assiette, A, figure 2, un appui sur le fond dans la direction de la flèche F provoque la déformation rapportée ci-dessus du fond et, par suite, la sortie du contenu du pot hors de celui-ci, sans modification de la forme qui lui était initialement donnée par moulage. Il en est ainsi que ledit contenu du pot ait été amené à l'état de gel solide avec le pot maintenu à l'endroit, - c'est-à-dire dans la condition montrée sur la figure 1 où son ouverture de remplissage est en partie haute-, ou bien que le produit ait été amené à l'état de gel solide alors qu'il est à l'envers, c'est-à-dire dans la condition montrée sur la figure 3, où son ouverture de remplissage est en partie basse et son fond en partie haute avec alors un léger volume d'air entre le fond et la surface libre du contenu.When, after uncapping the pot, it is overturned with its contents on a dish or plate, A, Figure 2, pressing the bottom in the direction of arrow F causes the above reported deformation of the bottom and, by following, the exit of the contents of the pot out of this one, without modification of the form which it was initially given by molding. This is so that the contents of the pot have been brought to the solid gel state with the pot held in place, - that is to say under the condition shown in Figure 1 where its filling opening is in the upper part, or else that the product has been brought to the solid gel state while it is upside down, that is to say under the condition shown in FIG. 3, where its opening filling is at the bottom and its bottom at the top with a slight volume of air between the bottom and the free surface of the contents.
Conformément à l'invention, également, on prévoit de réaliser le pot en une matière plastique de qualité alimentaire, comme du polyéthylène, du polypropylène ou du polystyrène et en mettant en oeuvre, de préférence, un procédé de thermo-formage.In accordance with the invention, also, provision is made to make the pot from a food-grade plastic, such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polystyrene, and preferably using a thermoforming process.
C'est une structure analogue à celle décrite ci-dessus qui est prévue dans la réalisation de la figure 4 où la paroi latérale est lisse sur la plus grande partie de sa surface, à l'exception de deux nervures 17 et 18, diamétralement opposées, régnant depuis le fond 13 jusqu'à la saillie qui ménage la plage de scellage et où le fond 13 du pot 14 est relié à la paroi latérale 15 par un décrochement 11 qui rompt la continuité de courbure de l'enveloppe externe formée par le fond et la paroi latérale. Comme visible sur cette figure, le fond 13 (qui dans sa condition initiale fait saillie à l'extérieur du pot, au-delà de la paroi latérale de ce dernier) présente des excroissances ou raidisseurs 12₁, 12₂, 12₃, qui en modifiant localement la rigidité du fond 13 et par conséquent ses caractéristiques de déformabilité, facilitent l'inversion de convexité dudit fond en tirant partie d'un effet de déclic.It is a structure similar to that described above which is provided in the embodiment of Figure 4 where the side wall is smooth over most of its surface, with the exception of two diametrically
L'invention n'est pas bien entendu limitée aux exemples de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits ; ainsi, et alors que le fond 10 ou 13 a été montré sur les figures 1 à 4 comme présentant un bombement régulier, il peut n'être qu'en partie bombé, comme montré sur la figure 5 où le fond 20 présente un méplat 21 dans sa zone voisine de l'axe X du pot.The invention is not of course limited to the embodiments which have just been described; thus, and while the
