Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a method of packaging a pasty product capable of being brought into an at least semi-liquid state, in particular cheese, in portions wrapped in polypropylene of prismatic or cylindrical shape, according to which a bucket by winding a sheet on a mandrel leaving the envelope thus formed beyond the mandrel, deposits a bottom against the front face of the mandrel set back from the edge of the envelope, flaps the protruding part of the envelope on the bottom so as to form a cup, partially fills this cup with the product to be packaged, deposits a cover on the product, then folds the edge of the cup on the cover.
  • the object of the invention is to make it possible to substitute polypropylene for aluminum.
  • the method according to the invention is characterized in that the edge of the envelope and the edge of the bucket are folded down hot, under controlled temperature.
  • Hot folding under controlled temperature makes it possible to obtain permanent plastic deformation of the polypropylene without damaging the product to be packaged, in particular the cheese, as might have been feared.
  • a tear strip preferably double, present on the periphery of the packaging, allows complete opening of the packaging and better access to the product.
  • the invention also relates to an installation for implementing the method, characterized in that it comprises at least one supply station comprising a reel of polypropylene film and means for cutting the film delivering sheets, a station for depositing and welding tear strips, preferably made of polypropylene, on the sheets, at least over most of their length, a transfer machine comprising a mobile support provided with mandrels whose shape corresponds to the shape of the packaged product, a station for wrapping the mandrels by means of the sheets and for welding these sheets so as to form tubular envelopes projecting beyond the free end of the mandrels, a supply station for polypropylene bottoms, of the same shape and dimensions as the section of the mandrels, a station for depositing these bottoms against the face of the mandrels withdrawing from the envelopes, a hot-folding station, under controlled temperature, of the protruding part of the envelopes on the bottoms, so as to form cups, a bottom sealing station, a labeling station depositing and
  • Figure 1 is an elevational view of the installation.
  • Figure 2 is a plan view of the installation.
  • FIG. 3 shows the different conditioning phases.
  • the installation includes two polypropylene feed stations 1, which we will simply call PP hereinafter, each equipped with a reel of PP film 2, two cutting stations 3 cutting the unwound strip of the reels 2 into rectangular sheets, two stations 4 for depositing and welding tear strips on the PP sheets, a carousel 5 equipped on its periphery with ten groups of mandrels 6 directed radially and whose section corresponds to the shape of the packaging, this carousel 5 constituting the central element of a transfer machine.
  • This transfer machine comprises two stations 7 for wrapping the mandrels by means of PP sheets provided with their tear strip, these stations 7 working simultaneously on two groups of mandrels 6, a station for depositing funds supplied by a station.
  • a station 10 for hot folding and at a controlled temperature of the edges of the envelope on the bottom a station 11 for welding the bottom by hot pressing, a station 12 for affixing labels on the bottom, a celling station 13 depositing the cups formed in cells 14 on a conveyor belt 15.
  • the formed cups pass successively past a filling and metering station 16 partially filling the cups so leaving a sufficiently large edge, a station 17 for depositing lids in the cups, on the product to be packaged, a station 18 for hot folding, under controlled temperature, d the edges of the cup on the cover, a station for sealing the cover 19 and a station for canning portions 20 in round boxes 21 and, finally, a station for packaging and labeling 22.
  • the PP sheet 25 unwound from the roll 2 is cut into rectangular sheets 26 at station 3.
  • the sheets 26, with a thickness of approximately 35 ⁇ are firstly provided with a double tear strip 27 at station 4.
  • This double tear strip 27, preferably also made of PP, has a tuning fork shape and a tongue 27a projecting from one end of the sheet 26.
  • the sheets 26 come to envelop the mandrels 6, so that the envelope exceeds the end of the mandrel.
  • the length of the sheets 26 is greater than the perimeter of the section of the mandrels 6, so that the ends of the sheets 26 can be welded together by hot pressing, the tongue 27a of the tear strip extending beyond the welded parts 26a.
  • the station 11 is equipped with three converging pushers 30, 31, 32 which fold the portion of the casing 26 beyond the mandrel on the bottom 29.
  • the head of these pushers is heated and maintained at a controlled temperature, so that the PP film is plastically deformed, so that it remains in its folded position on the bottom 29.
  • a label 33 detached from a stack 34, is affixed to the bottom 29 and to the folded edges of the envelope 26.
  • the wells 35 thus formed are detached from the mandrels 6, then straightened on their bottom at station 14.
  • the product to be packaged 36 for example cheese, is then dosed in the wells 35.
  • covers 37 similar to the bottoms 29 and also cut from a strip 38, are deposited in the cups 35, on the packaged product. Then, at station 18, the edges of the bucket protruding from the conditioned product are folded back hot, under controlled temperature, onto the cover 37 by means of three pushers 39, 40 and 42 identical to the pushers 30, 31, 32. At post 19, the folded edges of the cup 35 are sealed and welded to the cover 37 by means of a heated press 42. The conditioned portions thus obtained are finally grouped in a round box 43.
