Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for closing and opening a sachet or thin film packaging package.
  • Sachets or packets in sheet or thin film such as a polypropylene film a few tens of microns thick, which already enclose food products, especially in the grocery sector, such as pasta, semolina, etc ...
  • said packages or sachets are closed at their end distant from the bottom either using with a metal clip (to constitute packages of the "confectioner” type), either by folding the free edges of the sachet according to two or three heat-sealed folds (to form sachets with "front folds” or “back folds” or of the type "baker"), the folds then being generally held on the head of the sachet by affixing an adhesive tape see, for example, EP-A-0 388 310 where the constituent material of the packaging is a complex material, the part of which intended to constitute the i The inside of the package is made of a heat-sealable material.
  • a closing and opening device for a package or sachet of thin film packaging in which the free edges of the envelope constituting the package or sachet are brought together.
  • the non-heat-sealed fold (s) of the head of the packet or sachet being held by an adhesive label affixed to the packet or sachet so as to overlap the said (s) fold (s), characterized in that the face of the label in contact with the sachet is provided with a permanent adhesive which is masked or does not exist in an area where a pre-cut tab intended for separate the label into two separate sections, said tab being integral with the rest of the label as long as the package or sachet has not been opened for the first time and being positioned on the head of the sachet or package so as to prevail noticeably paral along the free edge of the fold (s) of said head, and in that the label is attached to the head of the package or
  • one embodiment provides that the area deprived of permanent adhesive is provided with a weak, non-permanent, pressure-sensitive adhesive, which is initially, that is, as long as the package or sachet has not been opened for the first time, coated with a protective film.
  • the invention provides for pre-cutting said film substantially in line with the tab to provide a gripping tab for said film so that after a first opening of the package or sachet and after the protective film has been removed, the area of the label topped with pressure-sensitive adhesive allows maintain said zone in contact with the package to close it, while not making any significant effort against new openings.
  • the label has a substantially trapezoidal contour with large edges substantially perpendicular to the free edge of the fold (s) of the bag head and the pre-cut tongue, -which has a gripping end- , is limited by lines of through perforations each ruling between said large edges of the label.
  • the invention provides for masking the permanent adhesive in the area where the pre-cut tongue prevails with the aid of a "cover", for example made of silicone paper, which can be easily removed after the pre-cut tab has has been torn off so that, after a first opening of the package or sachet, it can be closed with the adhesive thus made operational in said area.
  • a "cover" for example made of silicone paper
  • the visible face of the label is lined with a plastic film which contributes to the solidity of the assembly as long as the package has not been opened, such an embodiment being used particularly advantageous for sachets containing food products such as pasta or the like and which are of a somewhat fluctuating shape depending on the filling, compaction of the content, etc.
  • the device according to the invention finds application for the various types of usual packaging for thin film sachets or packages, whether they are with single flap, double front fold, double rear fold, or with "baker" type closure. It makes it possible to dispense with the heat-sealing operation of the free edges of the sachet head, while offering a simple and safe means of checking the integrity of the sachet or package which it equips, which also keeps, its usual appearance, generally parallelepiped.
  • a package or sachet of thin film packaging S, for example but without this indication having any limiting nature whatsoever, a polypropylene film whose thickness can be of the order of some tens of microns, is shaped according to a generally parallelepiped volume. It includes a bottom with a quadrangular outline from which stand four lateral faces like those visible in 10 and 11, the end parts of said faces opposite the bottom forming the neck or head 12 of the bag after they have been brought together.
  • the heat sealing operation of the free edges of the head of the package is an operation which requires relatively complex equipment, in particular if the rate of the packaging lines which can be of the order of eighty packages per minute must be constantly maintained.
  • the opening of the package or sachet in line with the line of heat sealing is sometimes inconvenient and / or is frequently accompanied by a tear, given the "stringy" nature of the material of the package or sachet, so that the content of the latter can spread, or else, once opened, the package or sachet cannot be easily closed, which can be a nuisance for the user.
  • the invention proposes not to heat seal the free edges of the head of the packet or bag and to ensure its closure using a label, 20, FIGS. 2 and 3, intended to be attached. by gluing on the fold (s) p of the package or sachet S ′.
  • the label 20, with a generally trapezoidal general outline with large edges 21, 22 and small edges 23 and 24, is pre-cut to provide a tongue 32, at the grip end 33 slightly protruding from the edge 21-, integral with the label 20 as long as the package has not been opened for the first time and which is limited by lines of through perforations 27 and 28 extending between the edges 21 and 22 parallel to the edges 23 and 24.
  • the lines 27, 28 define two sections 29 and 30 of unequal dimensions, each with a substantially trapezoidal outline limited, respectively, by the edges 21, 22, 23 and the line of perforations 27, on the one hand, and by the edges 21, 22, 24 and the line of perforations 28, on the other hand.
  • the face of the label 20 intended to come into contact with the package or bag S ′ is provided with a permanent adhesive on the back of the section 30 and on the back of a part of the section 29, as shown by the dotted lines in FIG. 3-, while an area 31, bounded by the edges 21 and 22, the line of perforations 28 and a side 34 substantially parallel to the line 28 in the section 29, is either completely destitute any permanent adhesive or glue or, in a preferred variant, provided with a weak adhesive of the type of those sensitive to pressure, -as shown by hatching 37-, said weak adhesive being initially coated with a protective film 38 which prevails between the side 34 and the line of perforations 28 and therefore in line with the tongue 32.
  • the film 38 is pre-cut along a line 39 extending between the edges 21 and 22 and substantially in line with the tongue 32 to limit a portion of relatively large extent between the side 34, the edges 21 and 22 and said line 39 and a band portion 40 of smaller extent limited by edges 21 and 22, line 39 and an edge 41 substantially superimposed on the line of perforations 28.
  • the label 20 is placed on the fold (s) p of the packet S ′, FIG. 4, so that the side 34 is substantially parallel to the free edge a of the fold (s) p of the bag head and, in any event, so that practically no part coated with permanent adhesive of the label 20 overlaps the free edge a or folds (s) p .
  • the bag S ′ thus closed in a simple and safe manner without the need to use heat sealing of the free edges of the head, is equipped with a means of checking its integrity since, for a first access inside the bag, the tongue 32 must be torn along the lines of perforations 27 and 28 and that such a tear obviously indicates an opening which it is not possible to conceal thereafter.
  • the folds p can, on the other hand, be formed again after a first opening of the bag and, after the protective film 38 has been removed, the pressure-sensitive adhesive added to the area 31 allows to re-apply said zone on the package or sachet to close it.
  • the first opening is made easy by the presence of the perforation lines 27 and 28 for tearing the tongue 32 whose gripping is facilitated by the presence of the tab 33, while the separation of the protective film 38 from the adhesive pressure sensitive is facilitated by the presence of the slight projection existing, after tearing off the tongue 32, between the line 28 and the edge 39 of said film.
  • the label 40 is generally rectangular in outline with large longitudinal edges 41 and 42 and transverse edges 43 and 44.
  • the area 51 reigns between an edge 52 relatively distant from the line of perforations 47 and an edge 53 relatively close to the line of perforations 48, said area being further limited by edges directed longitudinally 56 and 57 very slightly distant from the edges 41 and 42 of the label thus limiting small margins 58 and 59.
  • the entire back of the label is initially coated with the protective film of silicone paper 50.
  • said film -which is pre-cut to the right of the edges 52, 53, 56 and 57 as well as along two oblique lines 54, 55 extending from the line of perforations 47-, is removed from the label by peeling, which, owing to the presence of the small margins 58 and 59, can be carried out in a single piece from one end of the label so as to then leave visible the zones marked with dotted lines which prevail between the edges 44 and 52, on the one hand and 53 and 43, on the other.
  • the label is then placed on the fold (s) p of the packet S ⁇ , FIG. 7, so that the side 43 is substantially parallel to the free edge a of the fold (s) p of the head of sachet and, in any event, so that the part 51 of the protective film overlaps the free edge has fold (s) p .
  • the part of protective film 50 which remained on the back of the label can be easily removed by its prevailing edge between the sides 54 and 55 to reapply the permanent adhesive then visible on one side of the bag after part of the contents thereof have been removed and the folds have been reformed.
  • a device according to the invention can be easily implemented without difficulty on automatic machines, thus making it possible to maintain the rates of the packaging lines, or even to improve them, insofar as the usual heat-sealing operation of the folds of the bag head is no longer required.
