Description

La présente invention a pour objet un perfectionnement aux boîtes du type dit "mono-cuvette" obtenues, de façon classique, par découpage d'un flan unique, généralement en carton, puis pliage et collage des bords de ce flan, de manière à créer deux volumes délimités chacun par trois cloisons fixes et réunis par un panneau commun, dont les arêtes transversales permettent le repli du premier volume par dessus le second, qu'il emboîte, ledit panneau ainsi replié constituant la quatrième cloison du premier volume.The present invention relates to an improvement to boxes of the so-called "single-bowl" type obtained, in a conventional manner, by cutting a single blank, generally made of cardboard, then folding and gluing the edges of this blank, so as to create two volumes each delimited by three fixed partitions and joined by a common panel, whose transverse edges allow the folding of the first volume over the second, which it fits, said panel thus folded constituting the fourth partition of the first volume.

Bien que ces boîtes soient très répandues, et pour de nombreux usages, elles présentent toutes un inconvénient commun qui, dans certaines applications, peut être fâcheux à savoir que la quatrième cloison du premier volume, c'est-à-dire du fond de la boîte, n'est en place pour délimiter cette boîte et enfermer son contenu que quand le second volume, c'est-à-dire le couvercle, est complètement rabattu en emboîtant le premier volume : quand on ouvre le couvercle, le fond de la boîte n'est délimitée que par trois cloisons et son contenu peut s'en échapper par le quatrième côté. Dans le cas où ce contenu consiste en petits objets libres, comme par exemple quand ces boîtes sont utilisées en bijouterie, il peut être fâcheux de voir l'objet s'échapper de la boîte quand on l'ouvre.Although these boxes are very widespread, and for many uses, they all have a common drawback which, in certain applications, can be annoying, namely that the fourth partition of the first volume, that is to say from the bottom of the box, is only in place to delimit this box and enclose its contents only when the second volume, that is to say the lid, is completely folded down by fitting the first volume: when the lid is opened, the bottom of the box is only delimited by three partitions and its contents can escape from it by the fourth side. In the case where this content consists of small free objects, such as when these boxes are used in jewelry, it can be annoying to see the object escape from the box when it is opened.

Un inconvénient supplémentaire de ce type de boîte est inhérent à sa conception : comme les deux volumes sont réunis par un couple d'arêtes formant charnières, les tensions subsistant dans le matériau lors du pliage tendent, quand le couvercle est fermé, à provoquer le soulèvement de ce couvercle. Si même cette ouverture n'est que partielle, elle est fâcheuse car inesthétique et contenant le risque d'une ouverture complète intempestive.An additional disadvantage of this type of box is inherent in its design: as the two volumes are joined by a couple of edges forming hinges, the tensions remaining in the material during folding tend, when the cover is closed, to cause the lifting of this cover. If even this opening is only partial, it is annoying because it is unsightly and containing the risk of an untimely complete opening.

Enfin, dans la plupart des usages de ces boîtes, il est habituel de placer au verso du couvercle, une garniture portant l'identification de l'origine du produit contenu dans la boîte, par exemple, une plaquette de personnalisation. Cette opération supplémentaire a une incidence sur le prix de revient de la boîte, ce qui est un troisième inconvénient de celle-ci.Finally, in most uses of these boxes, it is usual to place on the back of the cover, a lining bearing the identification of the origin of the product contained in the box, for example, a personalization plate. This additional operation affects the cost price of the box, which is a third drawback of it.

L'invention élimine ces trois inconvénients grâce à un aménagement simple et peu coûteux de ce type de boîte.The invention eliminates these three drawbacks thanks to a simple and inexpensive arrangement of this type of box.

L'aménagement selon l'invention consiste à disposer dans l'ensemble des deux volumes formant la boîte mono-cuvette, un flan auxiliaire de carton comportant un premier panneau venant s'immobiliser sur le fond et sur les trois cloisons fixes et se prolongeant par des panneaux successifs dont le repliage crée successivement une quatrième cloison fixe pour le premier volume, un doublage sur le panneau réunissant le premier volume au second et un dernier panneau venant librement s'insérer et s'immobiliser contre le verso du second volume.The arrangement according to the invention consists in having in the set of two volumes forming the single-bowl box, an auxiliary cardboard blank comprising a first panel coming to rest on the bottom and on the three fixed partitions and extending by successive panels, the folding of which successively creates a fourth fixed partition for the first volume, a doubling on the panel joining the first volume to the second and a last panel freely inserted and immobilized against the back of the second volume.

De préférence, selon l'invention, les moyens d'immobilisation d'au moins un panneau consistent en des pattes venant s'insérer dans des fentes correspondantes des coins du fond du couvercle de la boîte. Ce simple blocage des coins d'un panneau l'immobilise intégralement contre la surface intérieure correspondante de la boîte, jusqu'à la zone formant la quatrième cloison pour le premier volume, ce qui assure l'immobilisation de cette quatrième cloison, ce qui élimine donc le premier inconvénient rappelé ci-dessus.Preferably, according to the invention, the means for immobilizing at least one panel consist of tabs which are inserted into corresponding slots in the corners of the bottom of the cover of the box. This simple blocking of the corners of a panel immobilizes it entirely against the corresponding inner surface of the box, up to the zone forming the fourth partition for the first volume, which ensures the immobilization of this fourth partition, which eliminates therefore the first drawback recalled above.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les coins supérieurs extérieurs du premier volume, c'est-à-dire de la boîte, comportent également des pattes, pratiquées soit sur le flan d'origine, soit sur le flan auxiliaire, et venant également s'encastrer dans les fentes aux coins du couvercle, de préférence en même temps que les pattes du panneau libre ci-dessus. Cet encastrement garantit l'immobilisation du couvercle en position fermée, ce qui élimine le second inconvénient rappelé ci-dessus.According to another characteristic of the invention, the upper outer corners of the first volume, that is to say of the box, also have tabs, formed either on the original blank, or on the auxiliary blank, and coming also fit into the slots at the corners of the cover, preferably at the same time as the legs of the free panel above. This embedding guarantees the immobilization of the cover in the closed position, which eliminates the second drawback mentioned above.

Suivant une autre caractéristique encore de l'invention, la face visible du panneau libre reçoit, avant mise en place du flan auxiliaire, les indications permettant de personnaliser le produit contenu dans la boîte, c'est-à-dire généralement le nom du revendeur, une marque ou analogue, par simple impression sur le flan à plat. L'opération est donc beaucoup plus simple, rapide et bon marché que l'établissement, puis la pose de plaquettes postérieurement à la fabrication des boîtes. Le troisième inconvénient rappelé ci-dessus est donc éliminé.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the visible face of the free panel receives, before installation of the auxiliary blank, the indications making it possible to personalize the product contained in the box, that is to say generally the name of the dealer , a mark or the like, by simple printing on the flat blank. The operation is therefore much simpler, faster and cheaper than the establishment, then the installation of plates after the manufacture of the boxes. The third drawback mentioned above is therefore eliminated.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description ci-après d'un exemple de réalisation, illustré au dessin annexé sur lequel :

  • La figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective d'une première réalisation de la boîte selon l'invention, en position entrouverte.
  • La figure 2 est une coupe verticale transversale de la même boîte à l'état complètement ouverte.
  • La figure 3 est une coupe verticale transversale de la même boîte, à l'état complètement fermé.
  • La figure 4 est une vue analogue à la figure 2 d'un second mode de réalisation de l'invention.
  • La figure 5 est une vue à plat du flan à partir duquel est réalisée la boîte mono-mono-cuvette, montrant la forme des échancrures et des ergots de clipsage.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear during the description below of an exemplary embodiment, illustrated in the appended drawing in which:
  • Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a first embodiment of the box according to the invention, in the ajar position.
  • Figure 2 is a vertical cross section of the same box in the fully open state.
  • Figure 3 is a vertical cross section of the same box, in the fully closed state.
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2 of a second embodiment of the invention.
  • Figure 5 is a flat view of the blank from which is made the mono-mono-bowl box, showing the shape of the notches and lugs.

Si l'on se réfère en premier lieu aux figures 1, 2 et 3 qui illustrent un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, la référence générale F désigne un flan de carton qui, replié et collé, constitue la boîte "mono-cuvette" de départ de type bien connu et comportant un premier volume V1, formant le fond de la boîte proprement dit, se composant d'un fond 1 et de trois cloisons fixes 2, 3, 4 et un second volume V2 formant le couvercle, se composant également d'un fond 5 et de trois cloisons fixes 6, 7, 8, les volumes V1, V2 étant réunis par un panneau transversal 9 pouvant se replier le long de deux arêtes rainurées 10, 11 pour permettre au couvercle V2 de venir s'emboîter autour du fond V1 comme représenté à la figure 3.If one refers first to Figures 1, 2 and 3 which illustrate a first embodiment of the invention, the general reference F designates a cardboard blank which, folded and glued, constitutes the box "single-bowl "of the well known type starting point and comprising a first volume V 1 , forming the bottom of the box proper, consisting of a bottom 1 and three fixed partitions 2, 3, 4 and a second volume V 2 forming the cover , also consisting of a bottom 5 and three fixed partitions 6, 7, 8, the volumes V 1 , V 2 being joined by a transverse panel 9 which can be folded down along two grooved edges 10, 11 to allow the cover V 2 to fit around the bottom V 1 as shown in FIG. 3.

Comme exposé plus haut, il manque alors au volume V1 une quatrième cloison, à hauteur de la rainure 11, pour être complètement fermé, sinon son contenu pourra s'en échapper par la face correspondante.As explained above, the volume V 1 then lacks a fourth partition, at the height of the groove 11, in order to be completely closed, otherwise its contents may escape through the corresponding face.

De même, par leur élasticité naturelle, les plis du flan F autour des arêtes 10, 11 même rainurées auront tendance à reprendre leur forme initiale, ce qui provoquera l'ouverture spontanée du couvercle V2.Likewise, by their natural elasticity, the folds of the blank F around the edges 10, 11 even grooved will tend to return to their initial shape, which will cause the spontaneous opening of the cover V 2 .

Enfin, il était d'usage de fixer sur le recto du fond 5 du couvercle V2 une plaquette ou un coussinet, élaboré séparément et portant la marque et l'identification du commerçant utilisant la boîte.Finally, it was customary to fix on the front of the bottom 5 of the cover V 2 a plate or pad, prepared separately and bearing the mark and identification of the merchant using the box.

Pour écarter ces divers inconvénients, l'invention consiste à associer à la boîte ci-dessus un flan auxiliaire F' également en carton et comportant, d'une part, un premier panneau 12 qui, dans cette première réalisation, vient se coller sur le fond 1 et les trois cloisons 2, 3, 4 du volume V1 et, d'autre part, des panneaux successifs non collés 13, 14, 15, 16, dont le repliage créé successivement une quatrième cloison fixe (13, 14) à hauteur du pli 11 pour le volume V1, un doublage (15) pour le panneau transversal 9 et un dernier panneau 16 venant librement s'insérer contre le fond 5 du volume V2.To avoid these various drawbacks, the invention consists in associating with the above box an auxiliary blank F 'also made of cardboard and comprising, on the one hand, a first panel 12 which, in this first embodiment, is stuck on the bottom 1 and the three partitions 2, 3, 4 of volume V 1 and, on the other hand, successive non-glued panels 13, 14, 15, 16, the folding of which successively creates a fourth fixed partition (13, 14) at height of the fold 11 for the volume V 1 , a lining (15) for the transverse panel 9 and a last panel 16 coming freely to be inserted against the bottom 5 of the volume V 2 .

Normalement, la simple butée de l'arête transversale terminale 17 du panneau 16 contre l'angle du fond 5 et de la cloison 6 peut suffire à immobiliser ce panneau 16, et en même temps, les autres panneaux libres 13, 14, 15. Cependant, de préférence, selon l'invention, le panneau 16 comporte aux coins extérieurs, des pattes ou ergots 18 venant s'insérer dans des échancrures 19 correspondantes du fond 5. Ces échancrures ne sont pas visibles de l'extérieur, car elles sont pratiquées dans une fraction seulement de l'épaisseur du fond 5 (et/ou) de la cloison 6. Grâce à ce système de pattes 18 / échancrures 19, l'immobilisation de la partie libre du flan F' est garantie.Normally, the simple abutment of the terminal transverse edge 17 of the panel 16 against the angle of the bottom 5 and of the partition 6 may be sufficient to immobilize this panel 16, and at the same time, the other free panels 13, 14, 15. However, preferably, according to the invention, the panel 16 comprises at the outer corners, lugs or lugs 18 coming to be inserted in corresponding notches 19 of the bottom 5. These notches are not visible from the outside, because they are practiced in only a fraction of the thickness of the bottom 5 (and / or) of the partition 6. Thanks to this system of lugs 18 / notches 19, the immobilization of the free part of the blank F 'is guaranteed.

De façon correspondante, les coins de la boîte V1 comportent à leur partie supérieure des pattes 20 qui viennent s'insérer dans les échancrures 19, ce qui immobilise le couvercle V2 en position fermée.Correspondingly, the corners of the box V 1 have at their upper part tabs 20 which are inserted into the notches 19, which immobilizes the cover V 2 in the closed position.

Enfin, il est clair que l'on peut aisément imprimer sur la face visible du panneau 16 toutes les indications ou informations sur le commerçant qui va utiliser ces boîtes pour distribuer ces produits, ce qui écarte la nécessité de faire confectionner les plaquettes ou coussinets que l'on devait antérieurement coller sur le fond 5 selon une opération supplémentaire.Finally, it is clear that one can easily print on the visible face of the panel 16 all the indications or information on the merchant who will use these boxes to distribute these products, which eliminates the need to make the plates or pads that were previously glued to the bottom 5 according to an additional operation.

Comme représenté, le fond 5 peut également être légèrement bombé, pour mieux maintenir en place le produit dans la boîte fermée, aux lieux et place desdits coussinets.As shown, the bottom 5 can also be slightly curved, to better hold the product in place in the closed box, instead of said pads.

Si l'on se reporte maintenant aux figures 4 et 5, on y a illustré d'autres modes de réalisation de l'invention, préférentiels en ce que le plan auxiliaire ne comporte aucune portion collée, mais est entièrement clipsée dans la boîte mono-cuvette.Referring now to Figures 4 and 5, there are illustrated other embodiments of the invention, preferred in that the auxiliary plane has no glued portion, but is fully clipped into the single box bowl.

Sur ces figures, les mêmes références numériques désignent des éléments identiques ou similaires.In these figures, the same reference numerals designate identical or similar elements.

Ainsi, sur la figure 4, analogue à la figure 2, on retrouve les éléments constitutifs de la boîte mono-cuvette, à savoir le volume ou fond V1 se composant d'un fond 1 et de trois cloisons fixes 2, 3 et 4, et un volume ou couvercle V2 se composant d'un fond 5 et de trois cloisons fixes 6, 7 et 8, les volumes V1 et V2 étant réunis par un panneau 9, articulé le long de deux arêtes rainurées 10 et 11.Thus, in FIG. 4, similar to FIG. 2, we find the constituent elements of the single-bowl box, namely the volume or bottom V 1 consisting of a bottom 1 and three fixed partitions 2, 3 and 4 , and a volume or cover V 2 consisting of a bottom 5 and three fixed partitions 6, 7 and 8, the volumes V 1 and V 2 being joined by a panel 9, articulated along two grooved edges 10 and 11 .

Toutefois, dans cette réalisation, le flan auxiliaire F' n'est pas collé par son fond 12 sur le fond 1 du volume V1 mais immobilisé par clipsage de l'extrémité 32 d'un repli 30, 31 semblable au pli 13, 14 dans des échancrures 33 du fond 1, la forme de ces échancrures 33 n'apparaissant pas sur la figure 4, mais apparaissant sous la référence "Détail A" à la figure 5.However, in this embodiment, the auxiliary blank F 'is not glued by its bottom 12 to the bottom 1 of the volume V 1 but immobilized by clipping the end 32 of a fold 30, 31 similar to the fold 13, 14 in notches 33 at the bottom 1, the shape of these notches 33 not appearing in FIG. 4, but appearing under the reference "Detail A" in FIG. 5.

On retrouve par ailleurs sur cette figure 5 tous les éléments de la boîte mono-mono-cuvette, mais dépliés complètement à plat. Le "Détail A" représente chacune des échancrures de clipsage 33 du flan auxiliaire F', tandis que le "Détail B" représente la forme des pattes ou ergots désignés par 20 dans la description des figures 1 à 3.We also find in this figure 5 all the elements of the mono-mono-bowl box, but unfolded completely flat. "Detail A" represents each of the clipping notches 33 of the auxiliary blank F ', while "Detail B" represents the shape of the tabs or lugs designated by 20 in the description of FIGS. 1 to 3.

Bien entendu, au lieu de carton, on peut utiliser pour la réalisation des boîtes selon l'invention tout matériau semi-rigide collable ou soudable tel que PVC polyéthylène et analogue. Le flan auxiliaire peut d'ailleurs être en un matériau différent de celui du flan constituant la boîte proprement dite.Of course, instead of cardboard, it is possible to use for the production of the boxes according to the invention any semi-rigid adhesive or weldable material such as polyethylene PVC and the like. The auxiliary blank may also be made of a material different from that of the blank constituting the box proper.
