Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a blank or cutout for producing a structure for holding and gripping at least two superposed layers of containers respectively connected to each other in the upper part of each of said layers, as well as such a structure support and grip.
  • a known structure is constituted by a blank or cut in the form of a strip of cardboard material which envelops the pots with a fold at each change of direction around the edges of the sheets of pots.
  • each blank requires for such a structure consumption material, usually corrugated cardboard or similar sheet material.
  • the present invention aims to provide a blank and a structure for holding and gripping at least two superimposed layers of containers such as yoghurt pots which respond better than those previously known to the requirements of practice in particular in that it allows a solid hold and easy gripping of two or more layers of stacked containers, each layer possibly comprising a large number of containers, for consumption of packaging material minimized and therefore cost optimized.
  • the presentation of the packaging is pleasant and allows the marking on the side surfaces of the latter.
  • the present invention essentially provides a blank in a sheet of cardboard or corrugated cardboard for the production of a structure for holding and gripping at least two superposed sheets of containers connected to each other in the upper part of each of said tablecloths, said blank comprising a rectangular central flap suitable for covering the covers of the upper sheet of containers, said central flap being provided laterally on either side with two identical main flaps each comprising a substantially T-shaped central part, the upper bar of which is connected to said central flap by a fold line, said central part comprising two identical secondary flaps, substantially rectangular, extending on either side, outwards and from the central leg of the T, parallel to said fold line, and being foldable with respect to said leg and arranged to be able to fit in the folded state between two parallel rows of containers belonging to the lower ply.
  • the invention also provides a package, or a holding and gripping structure formed from a blank as defined above.
  • Figure 1 shows a blank 1, for example of cardboard or corrugated cardboard, comprising a central flap 2 of rectangular shape, which could of course be a square, intended to contain two layers of 12 jars of yogurt each.
  • the central flap 2 is provided on either side, laterally, and symmetrically with respect to a central axis of symmetry 3 of the blank, with two identical main flaps 4.
  • Each main flap 4 comprises a central part 5 substantially in the form of a T, the upper bar 6 of which is in the form of a wide strip and is connected to the flap 2, for example over its entire length by a fold line 7.
  • the leg 8 of the T is also formed by a wide strip and comprises two identical secondary flaps 9 extending on either side outward from the central leg.
  • Each secondary flap is of substantially rectangular shape and is connected to the leg by a fold line 10, perpendicular to the line 7 when the blank is flat.
  • Each secondary flap has on its edge 11 directed towards the central flap and parallel to the fold line 7 in the flat position, two legs 12 substantially rigid, for example of shape triangular, and comprising at their bases, along the edge 11, a small notch 13 which will allow locking of the tab in the recess existing between the flanges of yoghurt pots, as will be seen below during the mounting of the blank on the tablecloths of yogurt pots.
  • the spacing between the legs 12, and their position on the secondary flap is determined by the geometric dimensions of the jars to be packaged, the legs of secondary flaps located on one side 14 of the flap 2 being arranged to coincide with the legs of the secondary flaps located opposite the other side 15 of the flap, to enter the same spaces when the structure is formed.
  • the secondary flaps also comprise, on their respective edge 40 directed towards the outside of the blank and parallel to the fold line 7, two tear-off tabs 41 on their side 42, and integral with the secondary flap 9 by their base 43.
  • tongues are for example located opposite the legs 12 and constitute complementary locking means of the two opposite secondary flaps, located on either side of the flap, when the structure is formed, by folding or twisting a tongue of a flap on the tongue of the other flap opposite.
  • each main flap comprises, symmetrically with respect to the axis 3, a tongue 16 obtained by cutting the central flap at the fold lines 7, and a notch 17 at the external edge 18 leg 8 of the T, allowing nested storage of several packages on top of each other.
  • Each main flap 4 also has two tearing lines 18 extending obliquely outward from the ends 19 of the base of the tongue 16, to end at the corner 20 between the perpendicular edges of the upper branch 6 of the T and its leg 8.
  • Such an arrangement makes it possible to completely separate the upper flap 2 from the secondary flaps 9, thereby allowing easy access to the yoghurt pots after tearing of the packaging.
  • the shutter 2 also comprises two substantially rectangular end flaps 21 connected to the shutter by a fold line 22 and suitable for being completely folded inside the packaging against the underside of the shutter, to improve its solidity.
  • the transverse dimension of the flaps is such that it does not encroach on the space occupied by the handles 23 cut out in the central part 24 of the flap, symmetrically with respect to the axis 3.
  • the handles in the shape of an inverted U are cut on their external part 25 and connected to the flap by fold lines 26 at the feet of the U.
  • a transverse reinforcing strip 28, along the axis 3 (in broken lines in FIG. 1), for example glued between the handles on the internal face of the blank, can also be advantageously provided.
  • a cutout 29 is provided at the edge of the flap 2 on a fold line 22, at a location allowing to read later the expiration date of yogurts.
  • FIG. 2 shows a package 30 according to the embodiment of the invention more particularly described here, applied to two layers 31 and 31 ′ of yoghurt pots 32 interconnected at the top of each layer, via their flange 34.
  • the packaging 30 is obtained from the blank 1 of FIG. 1, the same parts of the blank constituting the packaging therefore being designated by the same reference numbers.
  • the shutter 2 is firstly placed on the lids 35 of the pots of the upper ply 31.
  • the flanges 34 of the pots also having a central recess 36 at the junction between the flanges of four adjacent yoghurt pots, we will use this feature of the sheets of products to be packaged to lock the tabs 12 of the secondary flaps.
  • the secondary flaps 9 are folded outwards, so as to make them perpendicular to the part 8, and they are made to penetrate between the two rows of pots located opposite (the fold lines 10 being placed accordingly), giving a slight fold 39 to the leg of the T, towards the outside of the packaging to facilitate this penetration.
  • the legs 12 are snapped into the recesses 36 of a first set of secondary flaps, then of the facing game, the small notch locking the secondary flap in position, and in opposition to a backlash. other, the rigidity of the assembly being obtained in particular by the superposition of the legs belonging to 2 different flaps, by superposition and snapping into the same recess.
