Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for finalizing packaging, this finalization consisting essentially in the realization of a opening within these packages and the installation of a device opening and closing on said packaging.
  • the opening and closing systems proposed presuppose a precut within the packaging, and especially from its upper face, so that, during the first use of the packaging, i.e. when it is first opened, the user can easily open the package itself to thus free access to the interior of the packaging, and as a corollary of allow the liquid it contains to be spilled.
  • these pre-cuts are made directly on the constituent material of the packaging in the form of a web, that is to say upstream of the actual production of the packaging.
  • One of the steps in this process is to submit the width of the material in a sterilization phase by passage through a bath of hydrogen peroxide (hydrogen peroxide), prior to a drying step.
  • hydrogen peroxide hydrogen peroxide
  • Said material is then shaped into a tube continuous and undergoes a permanent filling of the liquid which it is intended for contain before being cut into unit packages.
  • This technique is for example described in the document FR-A-2 195 550. In in other words, the introduction of the liquid into the packaging takes place in perfectly sterile conditions.
  • the object of the invention is to get rid of these different disadvantages.
  • the invention consists in carrying out the operation of pre-cut not on the material in the form of a web, intended for become packaging, but on the packaging itself already produced and already filled.
  • the operation of pre-cutting and placing the plug are made at the same station, at which the packaging filled is maintained by an indexing system.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic perspective representation of the process according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic representation of a packaging in filler outlet, respectively 2a, after precut 2b, and after fitting a plug 2c.
  • This installation basically includes a filler (1), symbolized by a parallelepiped and, which is in fact a machine relatively complex, abundantly described in the literature (see for example FR-A-2 195 550), and which is not the subject of this invention.
  • this filler At the end of this filler, that is to say the place at which the packages (4), as already specified, are filled before their formation and cutting and folding, said packages (4) come out unitarily on a conveyor (9), intended to convey them to a precut station (2).
  • This precut station includes a laser (5), in particular a CO 2 laser, intended to produce on the upper face (6) of the packages (4) a precut area (7), for example of elliptical shape as shown in the Figures 1 and 2b. Since the packages arriving at the pre-cutting station (2) are kept fixed, the laser is itself fixed. It is nevertheless possible to design a precut station at which the laser accompanies the packaging at the same speed, itself continuing its progression by means of the conveyor (9), said laser being driven by a return movement, as soon as the precut is carried out.
  • the laser beam is adjusted so that the precut does not pass through the entire composite material of packaging, but at the very least retains the integrity of the coating internal of the packaging, so as to give it sealing against saw the light and the ambient air, and therefore his asepsis.
  • This placement of the plugs is advantageously totally automated, said plugs being in fact glued to the level of the periphery of the precut area.
  • the packaging at each of these stations is held in place and positioned correctly by system indexing (not shown) thus allowing to achieve a very large precision on the one hand, in the realization of the precut area and on the other hand, in the installation of caps or opening systems and closing (8).
  • the entire process of pre-cutting and fitting the cap is thus automated, making it possible to maintain the production rates of the packaging already known and obtained by the filling machines, without altering the aseptic conditions for making the materials. , and starting from the packaging.
  • the laser used at the precut station (2) is a standard laser (CO 2 ) therefore not requiring a substantial investment.
