Description

La présente invention concerne des emballages ainsi que des objets à emballer, notamment des imprimantes à l'aide de cet emballage.The present invention relates to packaging as well as objects to be packaged, in particular printers using this packaging.

Il est connu d'emballer des objets lourds qui doivent être protégés des chocs durant leur transport au moyen de blocs de mousse disposés dans un carton ou à l'aide de billes de polystyrène.It is known to pack heavy objects which must be protected from shocks during their transport by means of foam blocks placed in a carton or using polystyrene beads.

Le premier emballage en blocs de mousse ou en blocs de PVC présente l'inconvénient d'utiliser beaucoup de place pour le stockage et d'être peu conforme aux normes de protection de l'environnement. De plus, l'utilisation de ces blocs augmente le coût de l'emballage.The first packaging in foam blocks or PVC blocks has the disadvantage of using a lot of space for storage and being not very compliant with environmental protection standards. In addition, the use of these blocks increases the cost of packaging.

Les emballages utilisant des billes ou des flocons de mousse sont certes moins encombrants, mais ce type d'emballage présente également l'inconvénient d'être peu compatible avec les normes de protection de l'environnement et de provoquer une pollution chez l'utilisateur par les billes qui s'éparpillent.Packages using beads or foam flakes are certainly less bulky, but this type of packaging also has the disadvantage of being not very compatible with environmental protection standards and of causing pollution to the user by the scattered beads.

Un premier but de l'invention est donc de proposer un emballage moins cher à la production tout en offrant une protection efficace et peu nuisible pour l'environnement et dont le stockage prenne moins de place.A first object of the invention is therefore to provide packaging that is less expensive to produce while offering effective protection which is not very harmful to the environment and whose storage takes up less space.

L'invention a donc pour objet un emballage constitué d'un soufflet en matériau semi-rigide comprenant un panneau inférieur, un panneau intermédiaire adjacent au panneau inférieur par une première ligne de pliage, un panneau supérieur adjacent au panneau intermédiaire par une deuxième de pliage parallèle à la première ligne de pliage, les trois panneaux formant un premier U, une partie supérieure en équerre ayant une première branche et une seconde branche, la première branche étant adjacente au panneau supérieur par une troisième ligne de pliage parallèle à la première ligne de pliage, et s'étendant à un niveau supérieur à la troisième ligne de pliage et une partie inférieure en équerre ayant une troisième branche et une quatrième branche, la troisième branche étant adjacente au panneau inférieur par une quatrième ligne de pliage parallèle à la première ligne de pliage et s'étendant à un niveau inférieur à la quatrième ligne de pliage.The invention therefore relates to a packaging consisting of a bellows of semi-rigid material comprising a bottom panel, an intermediate panel adjacent to the lower panel by a first fold line, an upper panel adjacent to the intermediate panel by a second fold parallel to the first fold line, the three panels forming a first U, an upper angled part having a first branch and a second branch , the first branch being adjacent to the upper panel by a third fold line parallel to the first fold line, and extending at a level higher than the third fold line and a lower square part having a third branch and a fourth branch, the third branch being adjacent to the lower panel by a fourth fold line parallel to the first fold line and extending at a level below the fourth fold line.

Par matériau semi-rigide, on entend notamment du carton plat, du carton ondulé, une plaque de matière plastique. C'est ainsi par exemple que l'épaisseur du carton peut être comprise entre 5 et 7 mm pour un poids d'objets emballés compris entre 6 et 7 kg.By semi-rigid material is meant in particular flat cardboard, corrugated cardboard, a plastic plate. Thus, for example, the thickness of the cardboard can be between 5 and 7 mm for a weight of packaged objects between 6 and 7 kg.

De préférence :

  • l'emballage comprend deux soufflets opposés,
  • deux bandes latérales sont issues respectivement de la troisième ligne de pliage et s'étendent en formant un second U inversé par rapport au premier U jusqu'à la quatrième ligne de pliage,
  • une première languette s'étend dans le même plan que le panneau supérieur au-delà de la deuxième ligne de pliage,
  • une seconde languette s'étend dans le même plan que le panneau inférieur au-delà de la première ligne de pliage.
Preferably:
  • the packaging includes two opposite bellows,
  • two lateral bands respectively come from the third fold line and extend by forming a second inverted U with respect to the first U up to the fourth fold line,
  • a first tab extends in the same plane as the upper panel beyond the second fold line,
  • a second tab extends in the same plane as the lower panel beyond the first fold line.

Selon une autre particularité, le rembourrage supérieur est constitué de deux cylindres à section carrée reliés par une partie centrale.According to another particular feature, the upper padding consists of two cylinders with a square section connected by a central part.

L'emballage peut être utilisé pour emballer des imprimantes et le rembourrage appuie sur le capot de l'imprimante.The packaging can be used to package the padding presses on the printer cover.

Selon une autre particularité, chaque soufflet amortisseur se prolonge vers le haut par une portion pliée en équerre et orientée de façon qu'une des branches soit parallèle aux côtés de la boîte, l'autre branche soit à la fois parallèle aux branches de l'emboîtement en forme de U et perpendiculairement aux côtés de la boîte.According to another particular feature, each shock-absorbing bellows is extended upwards by a portion folded in a square and oriented so that one of the branches is parallel to the sides of the box, the other branch is both parallel to the branches of the interlocking U-shaped and perpendicular to the sides of the box.

Selon une autre particularité, l'angle de l'équerre comporte sur une portion de sa longueur un encorbellement en forme de pliage à angle droit de direction opposée à l'angle de l'équerre.According to another particular feature, the angle of the square has over a portion of its length a cantilever in the form of a bend at right angles to a direction opposite the angle of the square.

Selon une autre particularité, les encorbellements permettent le maintien du guide-feuille de l'imprimante et du manuel d'utilisation.According to another particular feature, the cantilevers allow the sheet guide of the printer and the user manual to be maintained.

Selon une autre particularité, les cylindres du rembourrage supérieur comportent sur une portion de leur arête située en vis-à-vis un pliage à angle droit vers l'intérieur du cylindre pour constituer un encorbellement d'appui d'un épaulement respectif du capot d'imprimante.According to another particularity, the cylinders of the upper padding comprise, on a portion of their edge situated opposite, a bending at right angles towards the inside of the cylinder to constitute a supporting cantilever of a respective shoulder of the cover d 'printer.

Selon une autre particularité, le rembourrage supérieur presse sur l'épaulement du capot d'imprimante et, par des moyens de protection, sur les flancs de protection du mécanisme de traction de feuilles.In another feature, the upper padding presses on the shoulder of the printer cover and, by protective means, on the protective sides of the sheet pulling mechanism.

Selon une autre particularité, un des moyens de protection est coincé du côté de l'engrenage d'entraînement entre l'engrenage du tracteur et l'engrenage de la platine et l'autre moyen de protection est fixé par un orifice au levier de libération.According to another particularity, one of the protection means is wedged on the side of the drive gear between the gear of the tractor and the gear of the plate and the other protection means is fixed by an orifice to the release lever .

Selon une autre particularité, des cales latérales sont coincées entre le châssis de l'imprimante et le rouleau.In another feature, side shims are trapped between the printer chassis and the roller.

D'autres particularités et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description ci-après faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente une vue en perspective éclatée de l'emballage et de son utilisation pour emballer des imprimantes;

Au-dessus des emboîtements, les soufflets se prolongent par des parties en équerre dont une seconde branche (275) est tournée vers le côté latéral de l'emballage et dont la première branche (267) est parallèle au côté latéral de l'emballage. Un rembourrage (3) est constitué d'une partie centrale (30) pourvue à ses extrémités de deux cylindres (31,32) de section carrée pour venir appuyer sur les épaulements (510,511) du capot (51) de l'imprimante (5). Les soufflets d'amortissement (2,4) comportent, à la partie supérieure dans l'emboîtement en U, une découpe permettant un pliage inversé pour former un logement (270,470) sur lequel vient se placer le guide-feuille (8) et le manuel d'utilisation (7). Ce guide-feuille (8) et le manuel (7) sont disposés transversalement par rapport à l'axe de symétrie du rouleau de l'imprimante. Le soufflet amortisseur (2) comporte dans sa partie inférieure une équerre constituée par une troisième branche (212) raccordée à une quatrième branche (200). Ce soufflet en forme de U est orienté vers l'espace vide de l'emballage, de façon à ce que les deux emboîtements (29,49) se trouvent avec leurs ouvertures face à face. Au-dessus de chaque emboîtement se trouve une partie supérieure en forme d'équerre dont une branche est orientée dans la direction opposée au U de l'emboîtement vers les côtés latéraux de la boîte en carton ondulé (1). Les soufflets amortisseurs (2,4) sont formés dans une feuille en carton ondulé, comme représenté à la figure 2. Cette feuille comporte une ligne de pliage (20) et une quatrième ligne de pliage (21) à une distance permettant de réaliser entre les deux lignes la troisième branche (212) de la partie inférieure. De deux points de la ligne de pliage (21) partent deux découpes en biais (211,210) constituant un biseau qui est relié à des bandes latérales (22,23) obtenues dans la feuille de carton ondulé par les découpes (220,230). Ces découpes (220,230) sont disposées entre des première et troisième lignes de pliage (24,26). Les lignes de pliage (21,26) forment les extrémités des panneaux inférieur et supérieur (214,256) du U. Des première et deuxième lignes de pliage (24,25) constituent les jointures entre le panneau intermédiaire (245) et les panneaux inférieur et supérieur. Des découpes respectivement (240,241,242,243) forment des languettes (250,251,253,252) qui, lors du pliage en U, prolongent les panneaux inférieur et supérieur (256, respectivement 214) dans la direction opposée à l'ouverture du U de façon à ce que ces languettes constituent des cales d'appui sur les faces latérales de la boîte (1). La partie supérieure de la feuille de carton (2) se prolonge vers le haut par une portion pliée en équerre et orientée de façon qu'une première branche (267) soit parallèle aux côtés de la boîte et une seconde branche (275) soit à la fois parallèle aux branches (256,214) de l'emboîtement et perpendiculaire aux côtés de la boîte. La branche (267) est délimitée d'un côté par la ligne de pliage (26) et de l'autre côté par une ligne de pliage (27) qui, dans la partie centrale, est interrompu par deux découpes perpendiculaires (273,271). Cette ligne de pliage (27) est pratiquée sur la face opposée à la face avant de la figure. Les extrémités des découpes (273,271) sont délimitées par des lignes de pliage (272,274) formées sur la face arrière du carton, ces lignes sont renforcées par des découpes en pointillés et, dans la partie centrale, une ligne de pliage (270) est formée dans le prolongement de la ligne (27) mais disposée sur la face opposée, au côté visible de la figure 2. Les bandes latérales (22,23) participant à l'emboîtement des côtés de l'imprimante (5) à emballer comportent deux lignes de pliage (231,234), respectivement (221,224), et deux autres lignes de pliage (232,233). Les lignes (232,222) sont dans le prolongement de la ligne (25) alors que les lignes (233,223) sont disposées dans le prolongement de la ligne (24). Les lignes (231,221) sont disposées dans le prolongement de la ligne (26) et les lignes (234,224) dans le prolongement de la ligne (21).The packaging, as shown in FIG. 1, consists of a corrugated cardboard box comprising, as usual, flaps forming the upper cover and cutouts on the lateral sides forming grip handles. This box receives a first damping bellows (2) and a second damping bellows (4) in which U-shaped sockets (29,49) are formed to receive the sides (56,58) of a printer (5). Above the sockets, the bellows are extended by angled parts, a second branch (275) of which faces the lateral side of the packaging and the first branch (267) of which is parallel to the lateral side of the packaging. A padding (3) consists of a central part (30) provided at its ends with two cylinders (31,32) of square section to press on the shoulders (510,511) of the cover (51) of the printer (5 ). The damping bellows (2,4) comprise, at the upper part in the U-shaped socket, a cutout allowing reverse folding to form a housing (270,470) on which the sheet guide (8) and the user manual (7). This sheet guide (8) and the manual (7) are arranged transversely to the axis of symmetry of the printer roller. The shock-absorbing bellows (2) has in its lower part a bracket constituted by a third branch (212) connected to a fourth branch (200). This U-shaped bellows is oriented towards the empty space of the packaging, so that the two sockets (29,49) are with their openings facing each other. Above each socket is an upper square-shaped part, one branch of which is oriented in the direction opposite to the U of the socket towards the lateral sides of the corrugated box (1). The shock-absorbing bellows (2,4) are formed in a sheet of corrugated cardboard, as shown in FIG. 2. This sheet has a fold line (20) and a fourth fold line (21) at a distance making it possible to produce between the two lines the third branch (212) of the lower part. Two points on the fold line (21) leave two oblique cutouts (211,210) constituting a bevel which is connected to lateral strips (22,23) obtained in the sheet of corrugated cardboard by the cutouts (220,230). These cutouts (220,230) are arranged between first and third fold lines (24,26). The fold lines (21,26) form the ends of the lower and upper panels (214,256) of the U. First and second fold lines (24,25) constitute the joints between the intermediate panel (245) and the lower panels and superior. Cut-outs respectively (240,241,242,243) form tongues (250,251,253,252) which, when folded into a U, extend the lower and upper panels (256, 214 respectively) in the direction opposite to the opening of the U so that these tongues constitute support wedges on the side faces of the box (1). The upper part of the cardboard sheet (2) is extended upwards by a portion folded in a square and oriented so that a first branch (267) is parallel to the sides of the box and a second branch (275) is at both parallel to the branches (256,214) of the socket and perpendicular to the sides of the box. The branch (267) is delimited by a side by the fold line (26) and on the other side by a fold line (27) which, in the central part, is interrupted by two perpendicular cuts (273,271). This fold line (27) is formed on the face opposite to the front face of the figure. The ends of the cutouts (273,271) are delimited by fold lines (272,274) formed on the rear face of the carton, these lines are reinforced by dotted cutouts and, in the central part, a fold line (270) is formed in the extension of the line (27) but arranged on the opposite face, to the visible side of FIG. 2. The lateral bands (22, 23) participating in the nesting of the sides of the printer (5) to be packaged comprise two fold lines (231,234), respectively (221,224), and two other fold lines (232,233). The lines (232,222) are in line with the line (25) while the lines (233,223) are arranged in line with the line (24). The lines (231,221) are arranged in line with the line (26) and the lines (234,224) in line with the line (21).

La figure 3 représente l'élément de rembourrage supérieur qui permet de presser la partie supérieure de l'objet à emballer, en l'occurrence le capot (51) de l'imprimante (5), sur les épaulements (510,511) par les logements (34,33) représentés à la figure 4. Le rembourrage (3) est constitué d'une partie centrale (30) qui se prolonge des deux côtés par deux cylindres à section carrée (31,32) dans lesquels les logements (33,34) sont pratiqués sur une partie de la largeur du rembourrage. Ces logements (33,34) étant destinés à venir appuyer sur les épaulements (510,511) du capot de l'imprimante. La feuille de carton ondulé constituant le rembourrage comporte une partie centrale à l'extrémité de laquelle sont formées deux lignes de pliage (320,310) et, à une certaine distance de ces deux lignes, deux autres lignes de pliage (321,311), à une certaine distance des lignes de pliage (321,311), à une certaine distance des lignes de pliage (321,311), une ligne de pliage (313,323), et enfin, à une certaine distance de la ligne (313,323), une quatrième ligne de pliage (312,322). La ligne de pliage (313,323) est interrompue par des découpes transversales, respectivement (332,334; 342,344) effectuées à une certaine distance l'une de l'autre. Ces découpes sont délimitées à leurs extrémités par des lignes de pliage (341,340), respectivement (331,330), et enfin une ligne de pliage centrale (343,333) se trouve dans le prolongement des lignes (323,313). Ceci permet de constituer les emboîtements (33,34), comme représenté à la figure 4.FIG. 3 represents the upper padding element which makes it possible to press the upper part of the object to be packaged, in this case the cover (51) of the printer (5), on the shoulders (510,511) by the housings (34,33) shown in FIG. 4. The padding (3) consists of a central part (30) which is extended on both sides by two square section cylinders (31,32) in which the housings (33, 34) are made over part of the width of the padding. These housings (33,34) being intended to come to press on the shoulders (510,511) of the cover of the printer. The sheet of corrugated cardboard constituting the padding has a central part at the end of which two fold lines are formed (320,310) and, at a certain distance from these two lines, two other fold lines (321,311), at a certain distance from the fold lines (321,311), to a certain distance from the fold lines (321,311), a fold line (313,323), and finally, at a certain distance from the line (313,323), a fourth fold line (312,322). The fold line (313,323) is interrupted by transverse cuts, respectively (332,334; 342,344) made at a certain distance from each other. These cutouts are delimited at their ends by fold lines (341,340), respectively (331,330), and finally a central fold line (343,333) is located in the extension of the lines (323,313). This makes it possible to constitute the sockets (33,34), as shown in FIG. 4.

Le maintien de l'imprimante est assuré par les deux soufflets d'amortissement (2, 4) qui frottent contre les parois de la boîte (1). L'imprimante repose sur le côté (214) respectivement (414) des soufflets (214,200,212) et respectivement (414,412,400), les côtés de l'imprimante (56,58) étant emboîtés respectivement dans les emboîtements (245), respectivement (445). Les côtés (214,414) des soufflets ne sont pas horizontaux mais légèrement inclinés vers le haut de la boîte.The printer is held in place by the two damping bellows (2, 4) which rub against the walls of the box (1). The printer rests on the side (214) respectively (414) of the bellows (214,200,212) and respectively (414,412,400), the sides of the printer (56,58) being nested respectively in the sockets (245), respectively (445) . The sides (214,414) of the bellows are not horizontal but slightly inclined towards the top of the box.

Par ailleurs, avant le montage de l'imprimante dans les soufflets, le chariot tracteur est soulevé pour permettre de glisser une première bande d'amortissement (81 figure 5) entre l'engrenage (53) d'entraînement du rouleau et l'engrenage (52) d'entraînement du chariot tracteur. Sur le côté opposé, le chariot tracteur comporte un levier de libération (54) sur lequel une deuxième bande (80) d'amortissement, constituée en matériau du type commercialisé sous la marque "EPERAN", est montée sur le levier (54) grâce à une fente non visible pratiquée sur cette bande (80). Ensuite les bandes sont enroulées sur les flancs respectifs (501,502) de l'élément tracteur, de façon à ce que les deux bandes (80,81) soient disposées entre les flancs (501,502) de l'élément tracteur et les bossages du capot d'imprimante constituant les épaulements (510,511). Avant la mise en place du capot (51) d'imprimante, on glisse également, entre le châssis de l'imprimante et son rouleau, des cales en matériau rigide qui permettent de bloquer transversalement le rouleau de l'imprimante. Ces cales rectangulaires sont constituées d'une portion carrée (700,710) se prolongeant par une langue rectangulaire (701), respectivement (711), la languette (701,711) venant se placer entre le châssis et le rouleau. Le matériau des cales peut être du type de celui commercialisé sous la marque "Akylux" par la société Kaysersberg.Furthermore, before mounting the printer in the bellows, the tractor carriage is raised to allow a first damping strip (81 figure 5) to be slid between the roller drive gear (53) and the gear (52) for driving the tractor unit. On the opposite side, the tractor unit comprises a release lever (54) on which a second damping strip (80), made of material of the type sold under the brand "EPERAN", is mounted on the lever (54) to a non-visible slot made on this strip (80). Then the bands are wound on the respective flanks (501,502) of the tractor element, so that the two bands (80,81) are disposed between the flanks (501,502) of the tractor element and the bosses of the hood d printer constituting the shoulders (510,511). Before installation from the printer cover (51), there are also slides, between the printer chassis and its roller, shims made of rigid material which allow the printer roller to be blocked transversely. These rectangular wedges consist of a square portion (700,710) extending by a rectangular tongue (701), respectively (711), the tongue (701,711) being placed between the frame and the roller. The material of the shims may be of the type sold under the brand name "Akylux" by the company Kaysersberg.

De cette façon, le rouleau est immobilisé transversalement et les mouvements de basculement, pouvant entraîner dans un mouvement de pivotement le chariot de traction, sont empêchés par le calage des bandes (80,81) et le rembourrage (3) qui appuie sur les épaulements (510,511).In this way, the roller is immobilized transversely and the tilting movements, which can cause the traction carriage to pivot, are prevented by the wedging of the bands (80,81) and the padding (3) which presses on the shoulders. (510,511).

Les soufflets amortisseurs jouent un rôle d'amortissement de l'imprimante en cas de chute et les branches (212) et (412 non représentées) amortissent en dernier lieu tout le poids de l'imprimante. Enfin, des cales en forme de U (6 figure 1) sont disposées aux quatre coins de l'emballage et viennent appuyer sur les côtés (57,59) pour maintenir l'imprimante dans l'emballage et soulager ainsi les bandes latérales (22,23; 42,43). Ces cales (6) en forme de U renforcent la boîte en carton et permettent d'éviter un écrasement des angles du carton.The shock-absorbing bellows play a damping role for the printer in the event of a fall and the branches (212) and (412 not shown) lastly dampen the entire weight of the printer. Finally, U-shaped wedges (6 figure 1) are arranged at the four corners of the packaging and press on the sides (57,59) to hold the printer in the packaging and thus relieve the side bands (22 , 23; 42,43). These U-shaped wedges (6) strengthen the cardboard box and make it possible to avoid crushing the corners of the cardboard.

L'épaisseur du carton ondulé à double cannelure sera choisie de façon à satisfaire, pour le calage frontal et arrière constitué par les soufflets (2,4), les références suivantes commercialisées par Kaysesberg : Bico 240 correspondant pour la feuille supérieure à un grammage de 240 gr/m²-P 112 correspondant à une cannelure en papier recyclé de grammage 12-P 150 correspondant à un papier recyclé formant la feuille intercalaire entre les cannelures ayant un grammage de 150-P 112 correspondant à une cannelure en papier recyclé de grammage 12-Bico 240 ou Kraft 200 correspondant pour la feuille inférieure à un grammage de 240 gr/m² Cannelure RC ; pour le calage supérieur constitué par le rembourrage (3), les références suivantes : Bico 240-P 112-Bico 240 ou Kraft 200 cannelure C ; pour les cales en carton (6), les références suivantes : Bico 240-P 112-P 150-P 112-Bico 240 ou Kraft 200 cannelure BC ; et pour la moitié (1) les références suivantes : Bico 200-MM 112-Gris 150 MM 112-Bico 200 cannelure BC. Ceci correspond à des épaisseurs de carton de 5 à 7 mm qui sont adaptées à l'amortissement efficace des chocs en cas de chute d'un objet à emballer pesant environ 6,4 kilos.The thickness of the double-corrugated corrugated cardboard will be chosen so as to satisfy, for the front and rear wedging constituted by the bellows (2,4), the following references marketed by Kaysesberg: Bico 240 corresponding for the upper sheet to a grammage of 240 gr / m²-P 112 corresponding to a groove in recycled paper of grammage 12-P 150 corresponding to a recycled paper forming the intermediate sheet between the grooves having a grammage of 150-P 112 corresponding to a groove in recycled paper of grammage 12 -Bico 240 or Kraft 200 corresponding for the sheet lower than a grammage of 240 gr / m² RC flute; for the upper shim consisting of the padding (3), the following references: Bico 240-P 112-Bico 240 or Kraft 200 C-flute; for cardboard shims (6), the following references: Bico 240-P 112-P 150-P 112-Bico 240 or Kraft 200 flute BC; and for half (1) the following references: Bico 200-MM 112-Gray 150 MM 112-Bico 200 flute BC. This corresponds to cardboard thicknesses of 5 to 7 mm which are suitable for effective shock absorption in the event of a falling object to be packed weighing around 6.4 kg.
