Definitions

  • the present invention is related to a package for plate-like elements in general, such as motor vehicle body sheets (engine compartment hoods, doors, trunk covers etc.), glass plates and the like.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a particularly simple and cheap package, which is however capable of ensuring an efficient protection of the packaged sheet element during transportation, storage and handling operations.
  • a package the primary feature of which resides in that it comprises a corrugated cardboard member defining at least one wall having an area substantially corresponding to that of the plate-like element, which wall has at least two partially die-cut portions spaced apart from each other and defining respective wings which are folded astride of corresponding substantially central areas of two opposite edges of the plate-like element, and annular outer retaining means to forcedly tighten said folded wings against said areas of the opposite edges of the plate-like element, whereby said plate-like element is substantially suspended relative to said wall of the cardboard member.
  • said cardboard member has a flat box configuration, and said folded wings are formed on both larger walls of the box.
  • the package may comprise a die-cut element forming a single larger wall.
  • At least one of said folded wings is formed with bent limbs for the containment and constraint of the corresponding area of the respective edge of the plate-like element.
  • the number and the arrangement of the above die-cut portions, and thus of the wings defined thereby astride of the opposite edges of the plate-like element may vary as a function of the design and shape of the plate-like element to be packaged.
  • Said annular retaining means may be constituted by straps or cables or ropes under tension.
  • these annular retaining means may be formed by annular heat shrinkable plastic material elements.
  • reference numeral 1 generally designates a package according to the invention for sheet elements in general, and more particularly for the hood of a motor vehicle engine compartment.
  • the package 1 is designed as a flat box with two larger walls 2,3 whose area is slightly greater than that of the sheet element C and between which this sheet element C is interposed.
  • the box 1 is formed starting from a single die-cut and creased member, indicated by reference numeral 1a in figure 3.
  • the larger wall 2 is connected laterally, through respective creasing lines, to two smaller lateral walls 4,5, which in turn are connected through corresponding creasing lines to respective larger and smaller portions 3a, 3b intended to constitute the other larger wall 3 of the box 1.
  • the portions 2, 4, 5, 3a and 3b are provided, parallely to the longitudinal edges of the cardboard member 1a, with respective creasing lines from which limbs 2', 4', 5', 3a' and 3b' are projecting, which are intended to form the remaining lateral walls 6,7 of the box 1.
  • a partially die-cut portion 8 defining a wing 9 is formed in the larger wall 2, at a relatively short distance from the wall 6.
  • a die-cut portion 10 is formed, which defines a wing 11.
  • the larger wall 2 is formed with a recess 12 and with a partially die-cut portion 13 defining a wing 14.
  • a partially die-cut portion 13 defining a wing 14.
  • two opposite limbs 15 are further defined, through respective creasing lines.
  • the larger portion 3a of the other larger wall 3 is formed, near to the wall 7, with a recess 16 and a partially die-cut portion 17 defining a wing 18.
  • the wings 11 and 18 are conveniently formed with respective parallel creasing lines, whose function will be clarified in the following.
  • the corrugated cardboard member 1a is folded so as to partially overlap the portions 3a, 3b, which are joined together by glueing so as to form the larger wall 3, parallely to the larger wall 2.
  • the limbs 15 are bent inwardly and, following insertion of the sheet element C and retention thereof such as clarified here below, the limbs 2', 4', 5', 3a' and 3b' are folded and glued so as to form the walls 6 and 7 of the box 1.
  • the sheet element C has respective opposite edges C1, C2 located substantially at the level of the wings 9, 11 and 14, 18 of the walls 2 and 3.
  • the wing 11 is then folded astride of the substantially central area of the edge C1 and the wing 18 is likewise folded astride the corresponding substantially central area of the other edge C2, such as depicted in figure 2.
  • the wing 9 is then folded over the wing 11, and the wing 14 is likewise folded over the wing 18, such as also shown in figure 2.
  • the central areas of the edges C1 and C2 of the sheet element 2 are restrained between the wings 9,11 and 14,18, respectively, of the walls 2 and 3.
  • the previously mentioned creasing lines of the inner wings 11 and 18 allow same to cope with the shape of the sheet element 2, thus providing respective containment and constraint folded limbs for the corresponding edges C1, C2 of the sheet element C.
  • the wings 9,11 and 14,18 are forcedly tightened against the edges C1, C2 of the sheet element C, by means of outer annular retaining members wound such as depicted in figure 1.
  • outer annular retaining members wound such as depicted in figure 1.
  • a plurality of plastic-material straps 19 under tension is employed.
  • metal straps or plastic-material or metal bands or cables, or ropes or any other functionally equivalent system may be employed.
  • Heat shrinkable plastic-material annular elements of a conventional type, wrapped round the wings 9,11 and 14,18 and stretched following heat shrinkage, may also be used.
  • the sheet element 10 is thus firmly constrained relative to the walls 2 and 3, and is substantially suspended within the box 1, with a slight play between its perimeter and the smaller walls 4,5,6 and 7 of the box itself.
  • apertures 20 acting like handles may be conveniently provided on the walls 2,3,4 and 5.
  • figure 4 shows a variant of the box 1, which can be for example employed for the hood C' of a motor vehicle engine compartment having the configuration illustrated therein, with respective opposite edges C1' and C2'.
  • parts which are identical or similar to those previously disclosed with reference to figures 1 through 3 are indicated by the same reference numerals.
  • the wings 14 and 18 are divided such as shown, whereby the straps 19 (or equivalent tightening element) are in turn splitted in two distinct groups.
  • the package might have an open configuration, instead of a closed box arrangement.
  • the wall 3 will be suppressed, and the sheet element C shall be suspended and constrained only by the wings 9 and 14 of the wall 2, with the retaining annular elements (straps 9 or the like) wrapped therearound.
