Description
La présente invention concerne un emballage en matériau thermoformable comportant un emplacement destiné à recevoir et maintenir un produit comme par exemple une étiquette informative.The present invention relates to a packaging made of material thermoformable having a location intended to receive and maintain a product such as for example an informative label.
Parmi les emballages des produits manufacturés ou des produits agro-alimentaires, on trouve de plus en plus fréquemment des présentations sous emballage qu'on a tendance à désigner par le terme de blister. Ce type d'emballage présente l'avantage de pouvoir être rendu inviolable, d'être léger et peu encombrant et de montrer l'objet proposé à la vente au travers d'une paroi transparente. L'utilisation de matériaux thermoformables en feuille permet d'obtenir des emballages épousant bien la forme des objets et de fournir soit des coques à large ouverture que l'on doit ensuite fixer sur un carton, soit des emballages complets qui se ferment par articulation de deux parties coopérantes autour d'une liaison charnière. La présentation de l'article doit être complétée par un étiquetage qui aide à la vente en apportant des informations non visibles directement comme par exemple une composition, des suggestions d'utilisation ou le prix du produit. Dans le cas des emballages sous blister, ces informations peuvent être portées par un carton support sur lequel est soudé le blister, sur une étiquette collée sur le blister ou encore sur une étiquette placée à l'intérieur du blister et visible au travers de la feuille de matière.Among the packaging of manufactured products or products food, we find more and more frequently presentations in packaging which we tend to designate by the term of blister. This guy has the advantage of being able to be made inviolable, of being light and space-saving and to show the object offered for sale through of a transparent wall. The use of thermoformable materials in sheet makes it possible to obtain packaging which conforms well to the shape of the objects and to provide either wide opening shells which must then be fixed on a carton, that is to say complete packaging which can be closed by hinging two cooperating parts around a hinge connection. The presentation of the item must be supplemented by labeling which helps the sale by providing information that is not directly visible, such as a composition, suggestions for use or the price of the product. In the case blister packaging, this information can be carried by a support cardboard on which the blister is welded, on a label stuck on the blister or on a label placed inside the blister and visible at across the sheet of material.
Ce dernier mode d'étiquetage est le plus diffusé car il permet d'une part d'utiliser une étiquette non adhésive, donc moins chère, et d'autre part d'obtenir un étiquetage inviolable puisque celui-ci se trouve à l'intérieur d'un emballage scellé. Une telle disposition oblige cependant à ce que la taille de l'étiquette coïncide avec la dimension de la face avant du blister pour que le positionnement soit stable et ajusté. Il s'en suit une taille imposée de l'étiquetage qui n'est pas toujours en correspondance avec le volume d'informations à communiquer et qui peut cacher l'article présenté, perdant ainsi le bénéfice de la paroi transparente. This last labeling method is the most widely used because it allows on the one hand to use a non-adhesive label, therefore cheaper, and on the other share to obtain a tamper-proof labeling since it is inside sealed packaging. However, such a provision requires that the size of the label coincides with the size of the front of the blister so that the positioning is stable and adjusted. It follows an imposed size labeling which is not always in correspondence with the volume information to communicate and who can hide the article presented, losing thus the benefit of the transparent wall.
La présente invention a pour but de proposer un nouvel emballage du type blister dans lequel est prévu un emplacement notamment pour une étiquette non-adhésive, indépendamment de la dimension de la face avant de la coque et/ou du produit emballé.The object of the present invention is to propose a new blister type packaging in which a space is provided, in particular for a non-adhesive label, regardless of the size of the face front of the shell and / or the packaged product.
Les caractéristiques de la présente invention sont
telles que définies dans la revendication 1.The features of the present invention are
as defined in
Selon l'invention, le blister, qui peut être sous forme d'une coque simple à souder sur un fond ou sous forme d'une coque double refermable sur elle-même autour d'une charnière, est réalisé à partir d'une feuille de matériau thermoformable tel que par exemple du PVC, du PET ou du polystyrène, dans lequel on ménage une zone en creux dont la paroi latérale est munie de godrons en contre-dépouille, situés à proximité par exemple de la paroi de fond de ladite zone en creux. De préférence, le fond de la zone creux qui peut se présenter sous la forme d'une cavité est légèrement bombé, de façon à assurer une élasticité nécessaire aux étapes de fabrication du blister, puis de mise en place de l'étiquette.According to the invention, the blister, which can be in the form of a shell simple to weld on a bottom or in the form of a resealable double shell on itself around a hinge, is made from a sheet of thermoformable material such as for example PVC, PET or polystyrene, in which a hollow area is provided, the side wall of which is fitted with undercut gadroons, located for example near the bottom wall of said recessed area. Preferably the bottom of the area hollow which can be in the form of a cavity is slightly domed, so as to provide the elasticity necessary for the manufacturing steps of the blister, then label placement.
La forme de la cavité est dépendante de la forme choisie pour l'étiquette et peut-être circulaire, ovale ou polygonale ou toute autre forme régulière ou non. Pendant le thermoformage du blister, on forme sur les parois latérales de la cavité, à proximité du fond, au moins un godron ou ergot en contre-dépouille qui a pour fonction de maintenir l'étiquette plaquée sur le fond de la cavité. De préférence, des ergots sont placés en opposition pour que l'étiquette soit maintenue correctement. La distance comprise entre chaque godron et le fond de la cavité doit être légèrement supérieure à l'épaisseur de l'étiquette et la hauteur de chacun des godrons est telle que la distance entre le sommet de deux godrons se faisant face est sensiblement inférieure à la largeur correspondante de l'étiquette. D'un point de vue pratique, on prévoit une cavité dont le fond est de même dimension que l'étiquette et dont les godrons ont une hauteur comprise entre 0,3 et 0,6 mm. En effet, de telles dimensions sont à la fois suffisantes pour assurer le maintien de l'étiquette et compatibles avec les impératifs de fabrication. Par ailleurs, on préconise de former le fond de façon légèrement convexe (c'est-à-dire bombé vers l'extérieur de la cavité) : cette disposition présente l'avantage d'augmenter légèrement l'élasticité de la cavité et, par conséquent, de faciliter la sortie du moule de thermoformage et la pose de l'étiquette. Afin d'assurer une mise en place aisée de l'étiquette ainsi qu'une bonne stabilité de celle-ci dans la cavité, il est préférable d'utiliser une étiquette possédant une rigidité moyenne, de type bristol par exemple. Le matériau de réalisation de l'étiquette est généralement un papier ou en carton léger, mais on peut utiliser tout autre matériau connu comme par exemple des films plastiques imprimables.The shape of the cavity is dependent on the shape chosen for the label and maybe circular, oval or polygonal or any other shape regular or not. During thermoforming of the blister, we form on the side walls of the cavity, near the bottom, at least one gadroon or undercut lug which maintains the label pressed against the bottom of the cavity. Preferably, pins are placed in opposition to that the label is maintained correctly. The distance between each gadroon and the bottom of the cavity should be slightly greater than the thickness of the label and the height of each of the gadroons is such that the distance between the top of two opposite gadroons is substantially less than the corresponding width of the label. From a point of view practical, a cavity is provided whose bottom is the same dimension as the label and whose gadroons are between 0.3 and 0.6 mm high. Indeed, such dimensions are both sufficient to ensure the maintaining the label and compatible with manufacturing requirements. Through elsewhere, it is recommended to form the bottom slightly convex (i.e. curved towards the outside of the cavity): this arrangement presents the advantage of slightly increasing the elasticity of the cavity and, by Therefore, to facilitate the exit of the thermoforming mold and the installation of the label. To ensure easy placement of the label as well as good stability of the latter in the cavity, it is preferable to use a label with medium rigidity, Bristol type for example. The material for making the label is usually paper or cardboard light, but any other known material can be used, for example printable plastic films.

L'emballage, représenté sur la figure 1, est réalisé à partir d'un
matériau thermoformable et comprend une coque 1 entourée d'un rebord 2.
Selon l'invention et dans une forme préférée de réalisation, la coque 1
comprend une zone en creux ou cavité 3 dans laquelle est prévue au moins
un godron 4 en contre-dépouille et situé à une certaine distance du fond 5 de
la zone en creux 3 de manière à pouvoir disposer par exemple une étiquette
informative 6, entre le fond 5 et le godron 4.The packaging, shown in Figure 1, is made from a
thermoformable material and comprises a
De préférence, la zone en creux 3 qui se présente sous la forme
d'une cavité, comprend sur sa périphérie intérieure 12 deux godrons en
regard l'un de l'autre et, de préférence, quatre godrons 4 disposés en croix,
dont l'un 4' est plus prononcé afin d'empêcher la rotation de l'étiquette 6
(figure 2).Preferably, the
La figure 3 est une coupe transversale de la coque de blister selon
III-III. On distingue la coque principale 1, la cavité 3 destinée à recevoir
l'étiquette 6 et les godrons 4.Figure 3 is a cross section of the blister shell according to
III-III. We can see the
La figure 4 est un détail de la figure 3 montrant la cavité 3 munie
des godrons 4, dont le fond 5 est convexe et de l'étiquette (5) maintenue entre
le fond 5 et les godrons 4.Figure 4 is a detail of Figure 3 showing the
Dans une forme préférée de réalisation, les godrons 4 se
présentent sous la forme générale d'un S avec deux parties 7 et 8 adjacentes
formant un certain angle entre elles, ce qui permet une insertion plus facile
de l'étiquette 6 dans le logement 9 ménagé entre le fond 5 et les godrons 4.In a preferred embodiment, the
Selon un mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention, on utilise un
film de PVC de 400 µm d'épaisseur, transparent, habituellement mis en
oeuvre pour le thermoformage des blisters. A partir de cette feuille chauffée
vers 250 °C, on thermoforme la coque par pénétration d'une empreinte au
travers d'un cadre de préformage. Pour former les godrons, l'empreinte
mâle, représentée par la figure 5, qui de façon habituelle, est à la forme
exacte de la coque, comporte des dépouilles 10 d'environ 0,5 mm de
profondeur et au fond de chacune d'elle arrivent des conduits 11 que l'on
peut mettre en dépression au moment du thermoformage. Cette dépression
plaque le film souple sur les parois de l'empreinte et en particulier au fond
de chacune de ces dépouilles 10 pour former autant de godrons sur la
périphérie interne de la coque 1. Après refroidissement du film sur
l'empreinte, on envoie une pression d'air par les conduits 11 afin de faciliter
le retrait de l'empreinte. Le film est ensuite découpé de façon classique. Au
moment de l'utilisation de la coque, c'est-à-dire pendant la phase de
conditionnement des articles, on utilise une étiquette (qui est , dans cet
exemple, en papier légèrement cartonné) qui est de dimensions égales à celle
de la cavité 3 et on glisse cette étiquette au fond de ladite cavité. Une légère
pression permet de la faire passer derrière tous les godrons où elle reste
ensuite prisonnière. Il est à noter que la convexité du fond de la cavité
autorise une déformation élastique de l'étiquette qui facilite sa mise en place.
Après pose de l'étiquette
qui est ici visible par transparence au travers du
fond de la cavité, le blister est utilisé de façon habituelle jusqu'à la
fin du conditionnement. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a
400 µm thick PVC film, transparent, usually
work for thermoforming blisters. From this heated sheet
around 250 ° C, the shell is thermoformed by penetration of a footprint
through a preforming frame. To form the gadroons, the imprint
male, represented by figure 5, which in a usual way, has the form
exact shape of the hull, includes
L'exemple ci-dessus a été décrit pour une réalisation courante de l'invention, et ne doit pas être considéré comme limitatif. Ainsi, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, de nombreuses variantes sont possibles pour mettre à profit le dispositif nouveau.The above example has been described for a common realization of the invention, and should not be considered as limiting. So without going out within the scope of the invention, numerous variants are possible for take advantage of the new system.
Par exemple, la cavité 3 peut être rentrante comme représenté sur
la figure 6. Cette disposition est particulièrement bien adaptée à la
présentation d'articles sous forme de rouleaux, l'étiquette trouvant alors
place dans le tube support. Selon cette disposition, l'étiquette, qui est mise
en place sur l'extérieur du blister, peut être posée après la fin du
conditionnement du produit et, en particulier, juste avant expédition. Selon
cette même disposition, l'étiquette étant visible directement, on peut utiliser
une matière thermoformable non transparente.For example, the
Une autre variante consiste à former la cavité selon l'exemple de réalisation décrit précédemment pour obtenir l'étiquette à l'intérieur de l'emballage, et découper une fenêtre dans une partie du fond de la cavité de façon à laisser apparaítre l'étiquette au travers de cette fenêtre sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'utiliser une matière transparente pour thermoformer le blister.Another variant consists in forming the cavity according to the example of realization described above to obtain the label inside the packaging, and cut a window in part of the bottom of the cavity so that the label appears through this window without it being necessary to use a transparent material to thermoform the blister.
Ce nouveau type de blister trouve son application chaque fois qu'il est important d'apporter une information pour un article emballé : articles manufacturés, produits agro-alimentaires, accessoires de bricolage ou accessoires ménagers. Suivant un aspect du respect de l'environnement, l'utilisation par exemple d'un film transparent en PET et d'une étiquette en papier cartonné permet d'obtenir un emballage incinérable; de même, l'utilisation d'un emballage en carton embouti et d'une étiquette en papier ne nécessite pas d'adhésif et procure un emballage biodégradable totalement et rapidement.This new type of blister finds its application whenever it is important to provide information for a packaged item: items products, food products, DIY accessories or household accessories. According to an aspect of respect for the environment, for example the use of a transparent PET film and a label cardstock provides incinerable packaging; likewise, the use of a stamped cardboard packaging and a paper label do not requires no adhesive and provides fully biodegradable packaging and quickly.
Un autre avantage du blister selon l'invention est de procurer un emballage d'un coût généralement moins élevé que les emballages connus.Another advantage of the blister according to the invention is to provide a packaging generally less expensive than known packaging.
Un autre avantage de l'emballage du type blister selon la présente invention est de permettre l'insertion d'une étiquette informative, en fonction du pays de destination du produit emballé. En effet, les étiquettes qui sont fabriquées séparément et rédigées en différentes langues, sont introduites au moment de l'emballage des produits. Cela permet d'éviter la fabrication et le stockage d'emballages préalablement imprimés et/ou de produits sur lesquels sont apposés des informations en plusieurs langues.Another advantage of the blister type packaging according to the present invention is to allow the insertion of an informative label, depending the country of destination of the packaged product. Indeed, the labels which are produced separately and written in different languages, are introduced in time of product packaging. This avoids manufacturing and storage of previously printed packaging and / or products on which information is affixed in several languages.
